Re: In My Bloody Hit Novel - Chapter 56

Cultivator Vs Ordinary Human…
Cablen had used a technique to win the fight. Although the students had not yet been taught how to use spirit techniques, it did not matter.

It was a plus on his side.

Although everybody knew that if he had not used a technique, the probability he would have won, was slim. However, nobody cared. At the end of the day, it was all about who won, regardless of the means.

Elder joules mounted the podium to announce the start of the next battle.

“The Next match would be…”

“Wait!” cablen stopped her. “I’m not yet done. I still want another round.”

Cablen’s words took everyone by surprise.

Cablen pointed to the group of children that by luck were not paired with anybody. And then he pointed at Chiron. “I want to fight him.”

Elder joules saw this and nodded. She turned to Chiron, “Do you accept the challenge?”

At the beginning of this stage, Elder joules had specifically said that if a person were to win their match, then they were allowed the opportunity to challenge another person from the children that were not paired by the draws.

Although this was a rule that was set up from the beginning, no one since the start of the match had taken advantage of it. Well, no one until Cablen.

Cablen smiled. This was what he wanted. As it was, he had lost the first stage because of the gap both Nora and Chiron had given him when it came to cutting the boulder.

However, the first round alone did not judge who the winner of the test was going to be. It was an accumulation of all the tests.

In total, there were three tests. In Cablen’s opinion, this was the one opportunity he had to rack in points for winning.

Naturally, since he had the opportunity to pick his opponent, he choose to pick who he considered to be the weakest one.

This was the fastest way to rack in points. On top of that, he really hated this brother and sister pair cousin of his.

Bullying Nora was not possible at the moment, but that did not mean that Chiron could not pay for the sins of both of them.

In his opinion, he was killing two birds with one stone.

Firstly, he was racking in extra points. Secondly, he was going to have fun kicking Chiron’s ass.

There was also the last part. Which was probably the most important.

Cablen took a sharp look at his father and could see the slight smile at the corner of his face.

Cablen knew that Dona wanted Chiron’s sword.

This was the cultivation world. It was not uncommon for people to get fatally injured while sparring. This was even a more common occurrence when children who did not have much control were involved.

In Cablen’s mind, this was an opportunity. The only thing that remained to seal the deal, was Chiron accepting the challenge.

Chiron heard the announcement from Elder Joules and frowned slightly. However, unlike anybody expected, he accepted the challenge.

Chiron slowly stepped towards the fighting ground. As he did, Nora frowned. She hurried to his front.

“Big Brother! please don’t fight. Cablen is a cultivator, and on top of that, he has an A-grade Dantain.”

Chiron smiled a little, “Don’t worry Ra ra, its okay!” he patted her head and walked to the fighting ground.

“Chiron!” Elder Joules called out to him, “Are you sure that you accept?” It looked as if she was really bothered about his well being, but Chiron could clearly see the look of gladness in her eyes.

Any opportunity for Chiron to be thought a lesson for having the guts to make a bet with her who was an Elder was something that definitely brought her satisfaction.

“Commence!” Elder Joules announced the start of the fight.

However, even though she did, none of them moved.

Chiron had Devil’s touch in hand. The irregular sword that had the ability to cut apart a boulder of iron like it was a hot knife going through butter.

Chiron was a regular human being. Although training over the years had helped him see significant improvement in his physique, he knew that it was nothing compared to the body of a cultivator.

On top of that, Cablen was currently covered fully in his spirit energy.

Cablen smiled and then like a rabbit running from a fox for its life, he rushed at Chiron, Bringing the wrath of his sword with him as he did.

Chiron immediately raised Devil’s touch in defense.

*Bam!!!*

Both swords hit each other and Chiron was forced back by the hit a couple of steps.

As he did, he coughed out some blood.

Seeing this, made Nora gasp in worry for her brother. However, it made Chief Dona nod.

Even though Devil’s touch was an incredible sword, Chiron’s constitution was weak compared to that of Cablen who was a cultivator.

In that hit alone, Chiron could feel it clearly. The reverberation from the hit had shaken his organs. If not that he had trained his body over the few years, he would definitely have been done for.

However, Cablen was not yet done with him.

He attacked once more with a lot of ferociousness. Chiron had no choice, he knew that he had to move.

And so, he did. Chiron dodged the attacks, again, and again. Many times, Cablen’s sword would have ripped him to shreds, but he persisted and ensured that his legs did not stop moving.

Chief Dona saw this and it made him frown. At the moment, Chiron was displaying incredible foot work. Although it looked like Cablen’s attacks only nearly missed, chief Dona could see the flexibility at which Chiron’s body moved.

He could not help but look towards Elder Joules.

Elder joules saw the look in her husband’s eyes. She knew it was because of the moves Chiron was displaying. However, to the best of her knowledge, Chiron should not be able to display such moves.

After all, he had never attended class.

What none of them knew was that for a long time while Nora practiced day and night with Elders of the Clan, Chiron had stayed to watch.

He had practiced their sword dance like it was his own.

On top of that, Chiron still had sword moves that the protagonist of the book was going to learn or discover sometime in the future.

All this coming together made for a style that had never been seen in this clan. The way Chiron moved was by far more complicated than what Martini had done with his fight against Cablen.

However, even though Chiron moved and dodged Cablen’s attack, Chiron knew that he couldn’t keep this up for long. Sooner than later, Cablen was going to get him. On top of that, there was also the spirit technique to worry about.

The best form of defense in a battle was always an offense. This was a saying in Chiron’s former world, and it rang noisily in his head.

One way or the other, he had to ensure that he attacked.

But this was a risky thing to do. Cablen’s hits were hard enough to reverberate his internal organs and make him cough blood.

This was not an experience he wanted to suffer again.

What if he attacked and Cablen defended it. This would mean that he would once again feel the hit in his internal organs.

Meanwhile, Cablen was slowly getting frustrated. He thought fighting and beating Chiron was going to be like taking candy from a baby, but at the moment, the reality was biting him in the back.

The way Chiron moved made him seem like a slippery eel.

Every time he thought that his sword was going to pierce Chiron, Chiron moved out of the way.

As both participants tried their best. One attacking and the other dodging, Chiron suddenly had an idea and the thought of it made him smile.

He suddenly somersaulted back a couple of times, creating distance between him and cablen.

“By my calculations, I can still use that move at least another two times,” Chiron told himself.

Chiron suddenly smiled as he whispered lowly, “Devil’s touch! I permit it. you may drink a little.”

Devil’s touch suddenly vibrated slightly and the edges of the blade became crimson. It looked as if blood had followed into it.

As it did, one of the runes on the sword glowed blood red. And Chiron suddenly felt as if his legs were about to give way to the weakness of the sword drinking his blood. But he persisted.

It was better he fed his blood to his blade than bleed it out in a fight.

Chief Dona saw this. he remembered that Chirons sword had turned red like this just before Chiron cut the boulder. He suddenly had a feeling that something was about to happen.

However, unlike what everybody watching expected, Chiron did not attack Cablen.

Instead, he raised his sword high up in the air and smashed hard at the ground.”

*BAM!!!*
