Arena Chapter 134:

Chapter 134 – Heising (Part 2)

 

“Fucking son of a bitch!”

Enraged, the young man put all his might into leaping up towards me and punched .

Pa pa pa pa pat!

The wind daggers I sent at him were like a typhoon, but his punches were able to block them all as he approached .

However, this time, I flew up higher and dodged his attacks .

I just have to wait until his stamina runs out . Is there really even a need for me to fight against him?

“Scaredy cat! Come at me like a man!”

Screamed the young man .

“I don’t want to . ”

“Do you think you’ll benefit the longer you drag this out?”

“I do . ”

“You’re a dumb **** . ”

The man left me with those words before descending again .

Why did he call me dumb?

I soon realized why .

From the horde of pirate ships, the pirates had let down their boats and were rowing towards me .

I could safely assume the majority of those people were Chinese examinees .

The sailboat with Cha Ji-hye and Vincent on it was fleeing as well but the distance between them was getting smaller and smaller .

‘I see . ’

When the middle aged man had jumped ship and swam back to the fleet, he must have relayed an order for the examinees to come out .

The young man stepped off the surface of the water again and as he flew up towards me he said .

“Now are you interested in seeing this through?”

“Sure . Let’s really go at it this time . ”

I activated the Divine Protection of the Wind .

The Divine Protection of the Wind I mastered last time by investing all my karma in it!

I obtained a skill that caused my spirit summons ability to multiply by three .

The Divine Protection of the Wind could be used for 3 hours .

For three hours, I would become three times stronger .

I flew straight at the young man and punched .

The gust of wind hit him .

Puuung!

“Kuk!”

He easily blocked with both his arms which were covered in aura but the young man’s body was thrust backwards .

The young man looked actually surprised at the power of the wind .

‘Let’s do this!’

I crazily threw out double punches .

It was a copy of the young man’s Fānziquán style that he had shown several times .

With my reflex skill superior level 1, I was able to copy his movements pretty well .

As the gusts flew about like crazy, the surprised young man created a protective barrier around himself .

Kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa Kwang-!

Like hammering a nail, my punches pounded down on the young man’s protective aura barrier .

While continually being pushed back, with the barrier in place, the young man got pushed into the water .

‘Do you know how to swim? I’ll help you float!’

It was then when I was feeling cocky that…

Chwa a a a ak!

A water pillar came up and the young man shot up into the sky .

Surprisingly, the young man wasn’t wet at all .

‘Is that something possible with aura control too? Regardless, that is pretty incredible . ’

“Come at me!”

Shouted the young man as he came at me .

I too kept punching out wind gusts while using his Fānziquán technique .

And the young man threw out just as many aura punches against them .

Kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa Kwang-!!

As if an earthquake was occurring, the shock shook the world around us .

Within this battlefield that was basically in the middle of a hurricane, the young man held an advantage .

Surprisingly, the young man, while being attacked by my wind attacks, was inching his way closer to me .

‘How can he be doing this?’

Not only that, he’s not even on the ground, he was on top of the sea .

With waves under his feet, would it not be normal for him to be pushed back from the wind?

My question was quickly answered .

Upon close inspection, he wasn’t going head on against the gusts from the punches .

At the moment of contact, he was making some delicate adjustments and allowed the wind to flow past him .

Because of this, he had the ability to use aura in his feet to keep moving forward .

‘I don’t think we’ll see an end to this fighting if nothing changes . ’

I made up my mind different .

My spirit summons was at the superior level and my Divine Protection of the Wind was mastered too .

On top of that, the location was also beneficial to me is why I confidently tackled him head on . But of course, aura masters are strong .

‘No need to do it this way . ’

I left the young man and flew back towards the sailboat .

And I discontinued the synthesis with Sylph, she returned to her cat form and nestled herself around my neck .

“How is it?”

Asked Cha Ji-hye .

“He’s definitely strong . I didn’t think it would end the way it was going so I came back . ”

“The, the man is coming!”

Yelled Vincent .

The young man was rapidly racing across the top of the water towards us .

At that extraordinary sight, even the bold old fisherman couldn’t help but be surprised it seemed .

“We should run too . It’s going to start shaking severely so hold on tight to the boat . ”

Vincent and Cha Ji-hye grabbed ahold of the boat .

“Sylph!”

-Meow!

I gave Sylph an order through my mind and Sylph, having heard my thoughts, nodded her head .

Then,

Puuung!

With a blast, the sailboat soared forward .

An explosion at the rear of the boat from the force of the air almost caused us to fly away

Atop the shaking boat, Cha Ji-hye was holding on with one hand and the other hand was holding onto Vincent, who was about to fall out .

With my reflex skill, I was able to maintain my balance .

As the sailboat kept flying forwarding at a crazy pace, the distance between us and the young man was no longer decreasing .

“Weapon, AW50F . ”

I summoned the AW50F and shot at the young man . I shot recklessly and Sylph took care of the aiming for me .

Poo shook!!

The bullet bounced off the young man’s aura barrier . But thanks to that, his movement was stunted a little bit .

I kept shooting and the young man finally gave up his pursuit .

It seems he’s thinking that all the chasing will just use up his aura and stamina .

The sailboat we are in circumvented the pirate’s fleet in a half circle .

As we do, so I shoot the boats coming after us .

Of course, with the power of a large anti-material sniper rifle, every time I shoot, one of the boats would shatter and sink .

The examinees that knew some magic ignored the other boats and used defense magic to protect their own vessel .

I aimed for the boats without any defense magic and continued shooting .

‘This is just bait . ’

I was letting them know I’m specifically aiming for the boats .

And from that moment on, I aimed for the corrupt examinees holding spears .

Puk!

I could see the heads of the examinees being blow off through the scope .

‘Aha!’

I immediately reloaded and shot at another corrupt examinee .

Poo shook!

The next one too, their head exploded and they died instantly .

Only then did the corrupt examinees hurriedly lowered their bodies or raised their shields to defend themselves .

‘Good . ’

Every time I killed a corrupt examinee, I got karma .

I’ve killed two so I’m sure that’s a significant amount of karma .

Fighting like this, circumventing the group of pirates, I reached the rear of the fleet .

From where I was, I could see the corrupt examinees swimming away from the sinking boats .

I aimed for the swimming corrupt examinees and succeeded in killing 2 more .

In just a short while, I had gotten rid of 4!

In an attempted to avoid my sniping, the swimming examinees started swimming deep underwater .

The pirates were in chaos .

The enemy was just in a small sailboat but had sunk five boats and continued to destroy everything .

To me, it looks like the pirates are full of holes .

The corrupt examinees that can use magic are all out on the rowboats .

That was an obvious mistake for the pirates .

The pirate ships had no one left to defend them!

Poo shook-!

Kwa jik!

With two shots in succession the two masts of a pirate ship fell down .

As the two masts collapsed to the left, the ship itself severally tilted over to the side .

The sails dangling from their masts got wet from the water and the weight dragged the boat down even further . The pirate ship eventually began to take on water and started sink .

There was mass chaos from the pirates trying to escape and swim to other ships .

I sank 3 ships this way and the corrupt examinees all seemed to be returning to the ships .

‘That’s right, head back . ’

I was vying for another chance .

I could see the corrupt examinees, one by one, get back onto the pirate ships .

Among them, I aimed for the corrupt examinees that could use magic .

The moment they were on the rope ladder climbing up!

The moment they weren’t paying enough attention to use their defense magic .

Poo shook!

The magician’s head exploded and disappeared into the sea . The headless corpse hung on the ladder .

“Fuck-!!”

The yell rang out across the sea .

It’s that aura master I was fighting just no .

Filled with rage to the tips of his hair, the young man once again raced atop the water toward us .

‘Ek!’

I was surprised that he was going all out to chase us again . I thought he would reserve his stamina for now and watch .

‘I knew he was high up but seeing him this angry, he must be the leader of these pirates . ’

Strong enough to be an aura master, it made total sense that he would have such a position .

‘We should slowly start to make our escape . ’

I had sunk 9 ships and gotten rid of 5 corrupt examinees .

These results were much better than I was expecting .

But I’ve also used a lot of energy and spirit summon time so it was a good time for us to retreat .

I used Sylph to push our sailboat back towards the Deport harbor .

The young man must have been extremely **** off because he kept chasing us for quite a while but I kept him in check by shooting at him every so often . He eventually gave up and headed back .

After putting a bit of distance between us, I gave up on shooting at the fleet .

Then, Vincent grabbed the paddles .

As he rowed, he said .

“I’m confused as to whether I’m dreaming right now . You sank 9 of those treacherous pirate ships and fought against Heising, you weren’t pushed back even a little!”

“Heising?”

“Isn’t it a strange name? That’s the name of the pirate leader . ”

“That **** just now was the leader of the pirates?”

“Yes . He’s the person that gathered all the various pirate groups and created the current one we just fought against . In addition, he boasts the incredible fight skill – aura master . ”

“Heising you say……”

I thought about the young man with the piercings and the long hair .

For sure, he was a formidably strong opponent but not that scary of one .

Seeing how he handled today’s situation, I don’t think he has the sharpest strategic mind .

It seems he got the highest position solely by being the strongest .

‘Is this Heising that rival that Lee Chang-wee was talking about?’

He’s an aura master and personality wise didn’t seem to have a problem being under someone .

Not only that, he was in a position to lead the entirety of the pirates and corrupt examinees .

With that much power, it was enough for Lee Chang-wee to consider him a rival .

‘If I kill Heising in this round, I’ll just be helping Lee Chang-wee . ’

I thought about where Lee Chang-wee was .

The guider skill told me what direction he was in .

West .

That was the direction the pirate headquarters were in .

“Lee Chang-wee is at the pirate headquarters . ”

At my words, Cha Ji-hye nodded her head .

“It’s clear what he’s after . ”

“He’s waiting for Heising to take a hit . ”

Fish in troubled water .

If Heising had fought this battle with me and gotten injured?

There’s a big chance that Lee Chang-wee would straight up kill Heising when he returned to the headquarters .

Fighting me and getting exhausted or injured . If he wasn’t waiting for that, what would the reason be that he didn’t get involved in the fight and be at the pirate headquarters instead?

‘I saw Heising as having a hot temperament but it might be that Lee Chang-wee pushed him to do it and he attacked ahead of time . ’

At this point, it was impossible for me to not consider Lee Chang-wee’s involvement in this and what his plans were for the near future .
