My Space-Time System

615  Unpleasant surprise.

The coordinated attacks of Valerius and Luciano did not fail to catch Blake's attention, flooding his mind with a series of thoughts.

"Perfect sync,' Blake was shocked. 'It's as if they have been training together for a long time.' 'Of course they have,' he muttered in his head.

'Well, this is getting annoying," Blake commented as his eyes narrowed.

With his fists clenched, an invisible force erupted from his body, bulldozing through the attacks.

Peng. Valerius' eyes widened as the scorching blade of his spear met the expanding force, creating fiery sparks brushing past his face. Gritting his teeth, Valerius could feel the strength of his hands depleting rapidly, it was going numb.

Boom. "Gah!" Valerius groaned as he was overwhelmed.

His spear was blown away from his hands first, leaving him with no choice but to cross his hands over his face before getting blown away. Simultaneously, Luciano watched the invisible force bulldoze through his fiery attack, charging towards his exposed body. Using the fused sword as a shield, Luciano felt the impact of the attack, and instantly he was thrown back by an invisible force, not even given the chance to resist a bit like Valerius. However, Blake had no intention of letting his enemies catch their breath.

Lightning crackled around his palms, lighting up his surroundings, while the space twisted violently before tearing open. Blake threw his hands into the spatial tear, firing lightning bolts at Luciano.

Soon after, Blake vanished appearing behind Valerius who had just managed to halt his retreat, however, Valerius was attuned to the space element and was able to notice Blake's presence. He turned to meet Blake head-on, but that was Blake's plan all along. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Stealthily, a spatial tear appeared behind Valerius, and the lightning bolts fired at Luciano sprang out of it, racing toward his exposed back. However, Valerius had seen through his intentions as a wall of solid fire spiralled into existence, shielding him from the bolts of lightning

Flashes of orange and blue light illuminated the battlefield as Blake and Valerius stood, gazing at each other amid the chaos. The magic spear flew into Valerius' hand and immediately its blade was engulfed in black and golden flames. "It seems you have forgotten I had the space element." He said in a mocking tone as he stabbed forward with his spear.

Speed Domain!

Suddenly it seemed as if the passage of time had slowed, but in reality, it reduced the speed of everything in a hundred meters range of Blake. However, Valerius was no rookie and instantly spotted the changes taking place, even then he remained resilient with eyes blazing with determination.

"That won't save you!" He growled furiously, putting more effort into his attack.

Seeing this, a mocking smile bloomed on Blake's face as he decided not to make a move. He stood there, not bothering to block or evade the attack

The blade of the spear soon made contact with the fabric of Blake's attire, piercing deeper, but strangely Valerius felt no resistance. His face turned cold as his instincts kept telling him something was wrong.

Buzz.

Blake, struck by the attack, quickly burst into a body of electricity, justifying Valerius' hunch. 19:40

Electric Decoy!

Valerius' eyes darted around the battlefield in search of Blake and just as expected Blake appeared. As soon as Blake appeared some distance away, Luciano's figure came into sight, his hands gripping the hilt of his fused sword tightly. It was clear they had predicted his next move.

Simultaneously, Valerius appeared behind Blake, stabbing forward with his spear.

"Hmph," Blake let out a disdainful snort as immense lightning began diffusing from his body. The next moment, the lightning arcs had become a massive pillar of lighting, shooting up into the sky and reaching the ground below.

Retracting his attack, Valerius attempted to create some distance between himself and Blake by pulling away, however, Blake had no intentions of letting him go.

Black Hole!

Valerius' retreating figure halted in midair, unable to move further away from Blake. It felt like a powerful force had a strong grip on his body, pulling him in.

"Shit!" Valeria muttered as he gripped his spear with two hands. He could feel the pull not only trying to drag him in but it was greedily pulling after their weapons too.

Beads of sweat ran down his face as he struggled to hold onto his spear.

 Across Blake was Luciano, who wasn't faring any better as well. He gripped his sword tightly as it was moments from escaping his grip and shooting into the lightning pillar.

"Damn it!" Valerius cursed as he looked ahead, locking eyes with Luciano for a brief moment.

As if making a silent agreement the duo burst into flames, vanishing and appearing some distance away, however, as soon as Valerius appeared a spatial tear opened right in front of him.

Yet to recover from the strain put on him by the black hole, Valerius was a tad bit late in his response. A Greatsword with a wolf design hilt sprang out of the spatial tear, its blade easily tearing through his armour and lodging into his chest.

Valerius felt a warm liquid rising up his throat. He tried as much as he could to keep it in but his body wouldn't let him. He spat out a mouthful of blood, staining his lips and clothes while his body swayed weakly in the wind.

"How?" He muttered in shock as he reassessed the situation in a bid to find out what went wrong.

His eyes dilated with surprise as he realized what happened. It turned out that when Blake had warped away earlier, he had remained in the spatial corridor while sending out a clone to fight in his stead.

"I see." Valerius squinted his eyes as he realized what he missed.

His body hovered farther away from the battlefield in a bid to create more distance while his hands reached for the hilt of the blade lodged in his chest.

Blood trickled down his lips and he pulled out the sword with some effort, revealing a gaping wound in his heart.

"Nice trick there but that won't be enough!" Valerius hissed in disdain as a bright light shone around the heart region where he was hurt. Right before everyone's eyes, his wounds began healing at a rapid pace leaving even Blake momentarily shocked.
