Chapter 74: Upgraded Aquamorph

Neil tapped the floor as a big pillar of thick liquid rose under his feet, boosting his body upwards.

’Aquamorph has grown significantly, I can quickly change the property of the fluids and their power has grown a lot too.’ Neil thought.

Up in the air he twisted his body, as he started spinning, the blades forming wide circles around him.

Teddy had just freed himself from the sticky liquid, with his speed greatly reduced he was having a bit of trouble.

Instantly he saw the blurry figure, he pulled back but the blades still left dozens of cuts over his face and neck.

“Ughh Fight me, don’t play tricks!!” Teddy shouted, his rage bubbling over, he didn’t want to use his full strength against this newbie.

It was shameful for him to be struggling against this guy.

“Heh Tricks, you wanna see one?” Neil’s smile widened suddenly, pointing the blade at Teddy, he spoke: “Boom!”

BOOOM!!

Instantly the sticky fluid sticking to Teddy’s body seemed to come to life and exploded violently.

But strangely, it did him no harm, yet his armor began to melt along with his clothes.

And in the following moments, both his armor and clothes were gone, leaving him completely naked.

In the clash realm, unless one has specifically made changes to his body, their bodies will be the same as reality.

“!!!” Teddy was completely frozen as he felt the cold air caress his skin, he looked down and hurriedly put the hammer before his groin.

“So this was the reason why you are always in foul mood? The big Teddy has only a pimple, hah no wonder you serve the prince, gotta make use of what’s available, huh?” Neil muttered with a chuckle.

Everyone in the arena was yet again stunned, not expecting such playful remark from someone so… terrifying, he hadn’t spoken much so far either.

“You!!” Teddy was still young, those words instantly enraged him.

“YOU ASKED FOR IT!!” he threw away the hammer as his body started to transform, hair grew all over his body and height grew to nearly ten feet.

’So this is the werewolf transformation, their strength increases by several times or so I heard. The real fight starts now.’ Neil got serious, as he took the fighting stance.

The transformation was complete in just a moment, now he looked like a beast, growling and going mad with bloodlust.

It seemed Teddy had lost control over himself.

BANG

His body shot forward at a speed that surprised Neil, but with agility lock active, he stole more of Teddy’s speed.

Reacting quickly he swung the blades.

CLANG

The blade struck the claws, as sparks flew and Neil was pushed back by the immense force.

But he adjusted himself quickly, dodging another deadly strike that almost beheaded him.

BANG BANG

The werewolf was madly swinging his claws, leaving deep marks on the floor, following very closely to Neil.

ROAARRRRRRR

’My strength is still lacking when compared to gold class it seems, but if I transform into a phantom, I think I can easily match one.’ Neil thought.

Right now, he only had a slight edge over Teddy in agility, if not he might already have been defeated.

But as he kept parrying and dodging, wounds started to appear on his body.

It seemed this was his physical limit and defeating this mad beast without skill or phantom transformation was impossible.

’Well this is good enough.’ Having a mythic Order domain had given him quite the benefit, there is already such big difference between him and the opponent.

As the claws grazed against his shoulder again, leaving a deep cut, Neil threw his swords away.

He clapped his hands as a big wave of water rose around him, the tidal wave was extremely strong.

It struck Teddy, almost throwing him off balance, if he was sane he might have tried to get away.

But the mad wolf just kept trying to reach Neil, moving through the tide.

’Change’ Neil thought as the water suddenly transformed into a purple burning lava, mixed with toxins.

It completely surrounding Teddy, a sphere even forming around his face, blocking the air.

GRRKHH…

The wolf coughed violently, his skin burning as he tried to pull the burning toxins away but it had no effect on the liquid.

’Aquamorph, if used sneakily, could be really dangerous, if I can control the fluids in my opponents’ body, won’t I win instantly?’

The wolf struggled violently, helplessly drinking the purple lava, his eyes bursting violently.

Picking up his blades, Neil walked forward calmly and swiftly slit Teddy’s throat.

His body lifelessly fell and started to disappear.

“H- He won again?! Just how strong is this guy? Damn, This… this is just insane, which race is he from? Who is lucky enough to get this guy?” discussions broke out instantly.

Sitting at the top, Cinthia couldn’t help but feel a bit proud, this was her student now.

[You have won 80 points.]

[Total Points: 28,080]

[Would you like to start the next match?]

’I have already won 701 matches, but if many fights are like this then it will take too much time.’

Fighting was definitely fun for him, but he was a little tight on time and was doing this mainly to upgrade his bow.

Looking up, he saw his teacher nod lightly.

She should have already gotten an idea of his strength and skills, so Neil wondered if he should try participating in domain battles.

’Nemo, how do the domain battles work? Is it too based on classes?’ Neil asked, but felt that shouldn’t be the case.

“No, master, battles happen among the same domain rank and your opponents are selected based on points.

You will be starting with 0 points, so your opponents will be weak. And since you are already in 2nd Origin, your opponent will be the same or you can select not to participate and just let the domains clash.” Nemo explained.

’…Well isn’t that better than spending days here?’ he thought and instantly made his mind.

“No, I want to participate in the domain clash battles.” Neil muttered, his voice loud enough to let the crowd hear it.

Cinthia, who was about to leave paused, and decided to check that too.

Neil was teleported into the darkness once again, but this time his domain was present as well.

He could choose what to hide and what to show, who to use in the battle, there was enough freedom.

…

The excited crowd shifted quickly, Neil’s personal strength was certainly very shocking, they were very curious about his domain.

[Total points: 0]

In the big arena, Neil appeared.

It was at least twice as big as before and was divided into two semi circles.

On one side was his domain, while on the other side was another wooden domain.

Neil had chosen to only show his core building and barrack, but compared to his own, the domain in the opposite looked like slums.

It was so weak, and was probably bronze class only.

Both Neil and his opponent chose to not participate and let their subjects clash, it was just like a game.

Over seven figures walked out of the hut like core building, while from Neil’s side only one person walked out, holding the elemental bow.

It was none other than Leon, the captain of his legion.

[The Battle Begins!!]
