The Supreme Level Up System

Chapter 86 Dark Defense



"It seems that he is the type that gets stronger over time. It is a very troublesome type…" Aion thought.

Aion had heard a few things about the enemy, about how his skin was tough and his attacks were heavy. Rumors usually would exaggerate things, but Aion knew better than underestimating the enemy. He was another piece of shit that was going to die soon, but he was a piece of shit that was going to be disposed of properly.

"You are strong and pretty fast for someone of your age…" Caelis said.

"Shut up and attack already," Aion said. "I don\'t have all day to waste with you."

A dark shadow began to emerge from Caelis\' body and then began to cover his arms. That was the shadow that corrupts people and makes them go crazy… Aion heard that the shadow could cover all of his body, but he didn\'t do that.

"I hate when they only show parts of their power at a time…" Aion said and then sighed. "It is cool on TV, but it is annoying in reality…"

Caelis didn\'t even take his spear, so he truly was testing Aion\'s patience. Still, he charged and once again tried to punch Aion\'s head. However, Aion dodged to the side… he had to raise his spear when he suddenly felt a shiver. Thanks to that, he blocked a dark spear that emerged from the shadow…

"That thing\'s adaptation ability is quite impressive…." Aion thought.

Caelis tried to kick Aion\'s left leg, but Aion used his weapon to stab the leg and stop the attack. Caelis grunted again, but then he forced Aion to retreat when he almost smashed his body with both arms. While Aion was landing, he saw the shadow moving to the wound and then the expression of pain on the enemy\'s face deceased.

It would be weird if the shadow had some anesthetic power… Aion would believe that it could make people get enraged and forget the pain, but not that… Regardless, Aion couldn\'t see any more blood falling from the arm and legs, so the shadow possibly closed the wound.

Caelis ran toward Aion, not as fast as before, but then he suddenly increased his speed. In a fast sequence of punches, he aimed at Aion\'s head, but his strikes always missed. All of a sudden, the shadows got thicker, and the speed of the punches increased… to stop that, Aion stabbed the wounded hand, but the shadow worked like armor and didn\'t suffer even a small point of damage. He was also pushed backward… the shadow truly could make him stronger and faster.

"With what I have on the line, I don\'t have time to fool around…" Aion thought. "There is also the chance that those friends of his will come to attack me once he dies, so I can\'t waste too much energy…"

When Caelis approached again, Aion used his spear to block the punches, and he was pushed backward with all those hits. Until the enemy started to enjoy that a bit too much, and then Aion\'s speed suddenly exploded with Inner Force. Before the enemy could see him moving, Aion\'s spear crossed the face of Caelis with a slash, damaging his right eye and opening a deep wound. While blood was gushing from the wound, surprise covered his face… the pain was nothing compared to that.

Caelis knew that the Kresnik family had a technique that made them stronger. He also attacked Lexus a few times and failed at killing him because of that… but he assumed that Aion had been using that from the start of the fight. Somehow, Caelis reacted instinctively when he saw Aion preparing for the next attack. He made all the shadows cover his body.

The spear\'s strike was blocked by the shadow when it hit the face of the enemy, and Aion furrowed his eyebrows. Caelis looked like another being altogether now that his body was covered in shadows. There were two red spheres where his eyes were supposed to be, and Aion couldn\'t help but feel something ominous there… he had lost one eye, so that didn\'t make sense.

As if he had nothing to fear, Caelis jumped and then landed where Aion was supposed to be. He created a large crater as if he weighed like a ten-meter-wide rock. Aion didn\'t know if that was the case, but at the very least, he assumed that the enemy weighed something like a steel bar of the same length and height.

"His spear was absorbed by the shadow, but he didn\'t grab it yet… it looks like a magic weapon, and if it is enhanced by the shadows…" Aion thought.

Caelis made many dark spikes appear around his body, and now he looked like an ominous hedgehog… As if that wasn\'t enough, he jumped and began to roll in the air. When he landed, he began to chase Aion at a fearsome speed. Blocking those one-meter spikes will be hard. So, Aion jumped with all his might to the side. However, the enemy could maneuver insanely well and turned to chase him…

Aion began to run around, but even with his increased speed, Caelis was faster…
