Re: In My Bloody Hit Novel - Chapter 346

Chapter 346: A Round of Applause for the show.
As they fought, the earth felt the sting of their wrath. Large rocks were broken and stones turned to dust.

However, the battle did not stop.

Both Ralph and Chiron bathing in the yellow of their Aura fought fiercely.

Chiron had a much higher cultivation and should have long finished off this battle. However, for some reason that many could not understand, Ralph kept on pushing Chiron back.

His attacks were strong and surprisingly cut through Chiron’s aura like it was tofu.

Chiron tried hard as he may but he was continually being forced back.

While the crowd contemplated what was happening, Barbara had her eyes on the sword in Ralphs hands. “Interesting!” She commented.

She could tell what was happening. The sword was constantly supplying Ralph with power and that power was translated into the raw strength that made him stand on equal grounds with Chiron that was a copper ranked cultivator.

“HAHAHAHA!!! What is the problem Igbi? You seem to be running out of energy.” Ralph chuckled wildly, “Is it maybe because I am with this sword, the source of your power?”

He struck again, slashing a bold move at Chiron’s arm that allowed blood bloom like a flower in the air.

“IGBI!!!” Claudia screamed in worry.

Chiron rolled in the air and then fell to the ground. He coughed up some blood.

His yellow aura flickered lightly. He seemed to be out of energy.

*Cough*

He coughed out blood to the side again and again. He was obviously having internal and then external injuries.

Ralph walked up to him and gave him a kick to the stomach.

Chiron curved in the pain that ensured.

However, Ralph was not satisfied, he gave Chiron kicks again and again. “You little bastard! You thought that you could come and take all that belongs to me and just walk away!?”

As Ralph enjoyed the sweet taste of his revenge, Mani standing close to Barbara could not help but feel his blood boil. He wanted so bad to join the fray and teach Ralph a lesson.

However, he couldn’t. Barbara instructed him not to move.

Chiron crawled on the ground in an attempt to get away from the continuous attacks. However, Ralph raised the sword and stabbed it into his stomach.

The crowd gasped.

This included Old Magu. She could not help but worry. She had been so confident in Igbi’s ability that she could not just believe that he had been reduced to such a state.

She was both hurt as a mother and bruised confidence wise.

Chiron’s blood flowed from his body, serving as evidence to the fact that he was losing.

“HAHAHA!!! HAHAHA!!! HAHAHAH!!!” Ralph laughed crazily, “How does it feel now? How does it feel to be at the other end of the suffering? How does it feel to have my blade go through your body?”

As he talked, Chiron’s eyes staggered around him. He looked at the faces of the villagers and then at old Magu and at Claudia.

He intentionally maintained eye contact with Old Magu.

This eye contact was only a few seconds, but in such a moment as this, it might as well lasted a life time.

It was as if a child had called to his mother for help. Old Magu could not help it. Immediately, she pushed Claudia back as she rushed for Ralph.

“Leave my grandson in peace you fiend!” She screamed as she launched at Ralph.

“Grandma NO!” Chiron screamed. But it was too late.

Ralph waved his hand, blasting her away with his aura energy.

“HUH!?” The crowd gasped once more.

Chiron struggled on the ground as his eyes settled on Old Magu on the ground.

She was bruised on the face. Ralph walked up to her and then he started kicking her as he had done Chiron, “You old witch. This is all your fault. You are the one that gave birth to a harlot daughter that then had this fool. If you just died a long time ago, I wouldn’t have lost everything.”

He continued kicking her on the ground.

Meanwhile, Chiron screamed for him to stop, but he wouldn’t as Chiron lay were he was, his eyes ‘Accidentally’ met with Mani’s own.

In those eyes were a fire that spoke directly to Chiron.

Mani muttered his words lowly, but Chiron read his lips well.

In this moment, where all seemed lost, the eyes of both men met and it was as if their souls made contact.

“For family!” Mani muttered, and immediately, Chiron’s expression changed. From pain to determination.

Barbara by the side noticed the exchange but did not stop Mani.

After all, she told him not to interfere but did not say anything about him not giving support. Also, this was something that really affected Mani.

The reason was because Mani had been in such a situation where he had almost lost his own family.

The air was thick with tension, and fear gripped the onlookers as they watched in horror. On one side, Ralph, fueled by anger and aggression, continued his onslaught, showing no mercy to old Magu. Bravely, she endured the beating, her eyes filled with unwavering resolve.

And on the other side, Chiron, gasping for breath, his gaze still on Mani’s, his eyes finding solace in the midst of pain. Mani continued, his voice growing stronger, “Remember the strength within you, the fire that burns in your heart. You are not alone, my friend. Your bravery inspires us all. Rise, Igbi, rise and show them the indomitable spirit that resides in you! Let the love for your family in your heart propel your power.”

It is said that strong emotions were always a good source of power for Aura users. Right now, this proved to be true.

Chiron gritted his teeth, he pushed himself up, the sword still embedded in his flesh. His eyes blazed with a fierce determination as he faced his enemy, his spirit unbroken.

“Interesting!” Barbara commented again.

At the moment, amidst the turmoil, it seemed like Mani’s words had helped Chiron find his strength to fight back. The crowd, once filled with fear, now watched in awe as he rallied, his every movement a testament to his resilience.

“He is getting up!” The crowd muttered in hush whispers.

Chiron suddenly held the sword by its blades and with a fierce pull, he removed it from his stomach and then he threw it to the side.

The sound of the sword CLANKING against the ground instantly pulled Ralph’s attention.

It was only now that Ralph realized that he was no longer with the sword.

Immediately, he rushed for it. However, Chiron with incredible speed suddenly appeared before him.

Chiron’s blood, stained his body, and some of it still poured like a bad dam.

However, he still stood before Ralph with a determination that was evident for all to see.

“NO! Ralph! If you want to prove to be that you are a better warrior than me, then do so with your fist!”

Ralph gritted his teeth. He could not get the sword as Chiron was now blocking his way. However, Chiron was already badly wounded.

It was evidently a miracle that he was still standing. As far as Ralph was concerned, this fight was his to win.

After all, even a copper ranked warrior would not be able to do anything if he lost too much blood.

With a determined roar, he launched for Chiron with his fists.

This was actually Ralph’s specialty. Those in the crowd knew this and they whispered about it.

Especially Claudia’s friends. After all, Ralph had even fought a cored beast bear with his bare hands. This was something that they had witnessed for themselves.

“Igbi is finished!” One of them muttered lowly, “Ralph’s aura of fear allows him to extract fear from his opponent on mere touch!”

However, what happened next surprised all of them.

As Ralph attacked, Chiron maneuvered him, and then he landed three square punches on his chest.

Even though it looked like Ralph in the current situation should have the upper hand, but by some incredible, Chiron did instead.

His hits were aggressive and despite his wounds, he made a miraculous come back.

Through the side of his eyes, Chiron looked around, capturing the expression on the faces of the audience.

“It would seem that it is time for the finishing move!” He thought to himself.

With a leap in the air, Chiron landed on Ralph’s shoulders, and then he grabbed Ralph’s neck and twisted it.

*CRACK!*

The deafening sound of bones breaking was heard and Ralph fell to the ground dead.

The crowd stood surprised at this.

Immediately, Claudia ran over to Chiron, tears in her eyes as she hugged him.

“Help me up, my dear!” he whispered and she did as he asked.

Limping and with her help, he arrived beside Old Magu. She had been beaten badly.

Chiron cried his heart on her. One look at her and one could see that she was dying…
