Chapter 554 MINTICO!
Chapter 554 MINTICO!
But knowing the Grandmaster, he won\'t be stepping in to assist him. Old Gia also knew that where there is danger, there is also reward. Should he defeat and exorcize this horseman, you best believe this Exorcist rank would go up too. The way of the heavens was righteous and true. How to say it? Eradicating an evil that is way more powerful than he, adds inner strength to him as well once the heavens acknowledge the exorcism. What he understood from his time as an exorcist was that when one ranks up, their soul force seems to be stronger than before, and the lines of Righteous Karma also grow thicker. To put it simply, the rewards for defeating and exorcizing Hotanzi alone would greatly benefit him. Again, Dorian had given them all another task, which was doing self exorcism during battle. That\'s right. Now, the baby walk-through he used to do with them was over. No longer will they have to wait for everyone to finish battling before jointly exorcizing together. Now, they were to exorcize as they battle. This was the next step of their training because in some battles, waiting for the end before exorcizing would only give these underworld a chance to escape. Or worse, perhaps they can find a way to call for backup, and overpower one. It was true that when exorcizing, they typically created an enclosed voice space that prevented the creatures from sending word out. Of course, most times, they will have to completely defeat the enemy before exorcism, since exorcism alone takes up a lot of energy too. Dorian was just training them for the rare times when they would have to fight and exorcize at the same time. If it really comes down to it, what will they do? How will they react? .
Roar!!! The air crackled with raw power, as Hotanzi and Old Gia closed attacks. Boom! Like a sonic wave, everyone watching seemed to see the ripples in the air swim backwards, towards them. Ahh! Many placed their hands over their heads in reflex, forgetting they were well protected behind this translucent wall. Both parties had been pushed back, but everyone could see that d Gia was pushed back the most. Hotanzi laughed maniacally, letting his mouth drop unnaturally to his chest. And then, they saw a swarm of strange black insects fly towards Old Gia with murderous intent. "Beh-Hi-Na-mi Forta!~" Hotanzi was speaking his ancient tongue again, smiling cruelly while raising hands and commanding the insects to eat Old Gia alive. Old Gia did several backflips, landing on one of the steps down, before kicking his feet and jumping high up in the air. "Flaming Vacuum of Fury!!" Vrmmmm!!!!~
Old Gia spun so fast in the air, turning into a tornado of heavenly fire, sucking in and burning the flesh-hungry insects coming his way. But just when he succeeded in clearing all insects, Hotanzi\'s iron fist collided with his side stomach and the moment his flames went off. .
"Noco… Insecta Tutus…" Bam!! Hotanzi appeared again, giving Old Gia another fierce blow. Hotanzi, like the plague God he was, calmly walked down the stairs while rolling his fists, as if massaging them. He then grabbed Old Gia from the pile of rubble, lifting him up and opening his mouth wide as if wanting to devour him whole. Was this his end? Many watching, including Hitchcoff, couldn\'t help panicking and worrying for Old Gia\'s sake. What to do? What to do? The muscles along their jaws seized with uncontrollable tremors when watching the scene unfold. Perspiration now beaded on everyone\'s brows, with some closing their eyes tightly, too scared to watch the impending scene of doom before them. It\'s over… It\'s over…
Grandmaster! Grandmaster! Look over there! Your follower is about to be eaten alive by that monster! However, after closing their eyes and waiting for the worst to come, they did hear an agonizing roar vibrate through their eardrums. But why didn\'t it resemble the voice of the one they considered dead? Opening their eyes, they now saw Old Gia standing upright with a lazy expression, while Hotanzi was on his knees with his hands on his neck, acting his Buzz Lightyear when Woody first pressed his Buzz\'s suit, exposing him to \'air\' when the glass astronaut goes down.
(-_-) Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn
… Erm… excuse them, but why did the script suddenly flip here? Wasn\'t Old Gia the one to go on his knees and not Hotanzi? .
-A few seconds ago–
Many were still covering their eyes in fear after seeing Hotanzi raise Old Gia up, ready to devour him whole. Even Hotanzi felt he wouldn\'t lose to Old Gia. Perhaps because of the battle they just had, Hotanzi felt there was no way Old Gia would be able to overpower him. And so what does he do? He slowly begins to act cocky without even knowing it. Old Gia was now breathing heavily. And after seeing Old Gia\'s beaten up state with a stream of blood flowing down the right side of his face, Hotanzi felt the bastard human was definitely no match for him. So he dropped his guard down, never expecting that in the last moment when Old Gia was inches from his tongue, something suddenly fell into his widened mouth, causing his throat and entire body to burn chaotically. "You! You! You!"
Hotanzi\'s eyes widened in horror after understand what Old Gia did. Plop! He fell to the ground, stretching his weakened hand as though gasping for air.
Dammit! Dammit!
Hotanzi was unwilling to believe he would fall from a weak and despicable attack like that. Yes! Right now, Hotanzi realized that although Old Gia was weaker than him, Old Gia wasn\'t that weak that he couldn\'t dodge a few attacks he launched earlier. So everything was definitely an Act –an act to get this close to him.
"Mintico!" In translation… BASTARD!
