CronoOver 24 Chapter 24

"One way to find out."

"Eh, you live once, shoot me Doc!"

"Suit your self!"

-The one having the conversation with the doctor was Rex. He was currently in the infirmary having the burns he got from fighting Torch, healed.

"d.a.m.n, the f.u.c.ker managed to give me second-degree burns, and he wasn't even that big of a problem."

"To be honest you did just stand there taking his. .h.i.ts at one point!"

"Weeeeeeell!"

"Just leave, it should be better after some time."

"Ok... But what kind of drug helps heal burns by injecting it with a needle, shouldn't you give me some kind of cream or something?"

"...A new drug from the Black market, they can heal almost any disease, but you have to put it in your blood so that the magic can start."

"Oh!"

"Ww42x, they call it, or something like that."

"Can it heal a lost eye?" -Asked Rin, while rudely interrupting their conversation.

"Eyepatch, so you're next?"

"Yeah, took me some time to get here so I ended up at the back of the line."

"Well, I',m all done either way, so I'm going, right Doc?"

"Ah, I don't care!"

"See ya!"

"Yeah!"

-The exchange of words between Rex and Eyepatch was an unpleasantly one, Rex who tried to act friendly and Eyepatch who seemed like he really didn't give two s.h.i.ts.

"So can it heal my eye?"

"Simple, NO!"

"How come?"

"Haaaaaa, I really hate kids, the drug speed's up your healing ability by boosting you body with adrenal and Hein, Which just heals your current injuries for an hour or two, IT CANT HEAL WHAT DOESNT EXIST!"

"Quit it with the att.i.tude old man and just give me one!"

"Tch, d.a.m.n brat, I'm only in my forties!"

-The fact that "Ww42x" couldn't restore his lost eye was a disappointment, but he expected this much. Even in this new world filled with people who's abilities can do miracles, for him to just land on one like this was to low.

Round two is about to start, and I'm fighting first again against...him!

-The thought of facing Archer in a fight threatened Rin a little, he was sure he would lose, but the miracle that happened in the fight with Hood gave him rea.s.surance in himself.

For Now I'll go with this strategy, and if it fails there's plan B.

-From observing his previous fight with White knife, Rin learned something about Archer's ability, one of which being, that is to powerfull.

I will need to carefully and precisely plan out my moves if I want to win, and I want!

"I also need a dozen bandages, I want to change these."

"That will cost you!"

"f.u.c.k off, and hand them over!"

-With the half-hour break being finally over, the second round of the tournament was beginnings, and this time the rules are a little different.

"Listen up Sc.u.m, round two will have three rules. One, There is a time limit to the match, so it doesn't drag out. Two, the longer the match is the higher the chance of you being squished to death my Hartstone pillars from under and above you. Three, Just fight at your fullest!"

.

Now it begins! My fight!

-Walking towards the Hartstome pillar on which they were going to have their confrontation, the two stand there in silence, watching each other, and waiting for that bell to ring so they coud start.

"And now I'm proud to announce the beginning of the second round of the tournament. And the gladiators who will start it are no other them ARCHER AND EYEPATCH!"

"Both here for the first time, and managed to enter the semifinals, let's hear some cheers!"

"Yeaahhh!!!"

"I know you're all hungry for this, so I won't delay it any longer, go! Fight!"

"Fight!, Fight!, Fight!"

-The audience, hungry and eager for their fight. Ther already loud cheer only became even louder.

"Let's have a fair fight!" -Said Archer to Eyepatch.

"I do still have my pride as a Swordsman!" -Eyepatch replied.

-With their exchange of words said, each of them went to their separate side's as the ring slowly started moving upwards and taking the fighters in the air.

-Both of them, just stood there waiting for the other one to make the first move, but neither didn't.

If you're going to wait, then I might as well strike first!

-Thinking he would start the battle with the first move, Rin neglected one important thing. Archer already made his move, an arrow aimed at his head, and it was already in front of him.

s.h.i.t, when?

-With all of his might at that moment, he pulled Kanashimi from its sheath and sliced the arrow in half.

d.a.m.n, that was way to close!

-But it wasn't over, after the first one, a rain of arrows filled the sky above him, as Archer continued his attack with a rain of arrows.

"What!"

-He swung Kanashimi again and again in a circular motion, cutting the arrows aimed at his body.

Just watching him over a screen was easy. I knew he was fast, but experiencing it first hand...He's way to fast for me!

"Long Sword style: Wyvern slash!"

-After he cleared out all of the arrows, Rin combined his Ability, Little star and his skill as a swordsman, to fire an attack with a ma.s.s and power of ten cars behind it.

-Just like every other time he does it, his arm and sword were covered in the purple flame, not hot but showing the strength of his attacks. The thinner the flame the stronger the attack!

"You're going at me with full power from the start?, I except and will do the same!"

-Archer took hold of his Quiver and thrown it over the edge of the pillar that they were fighting on. Only leaving his bow in his hand.

-Even tho He said those words, Archer wasn't going all out just becouse of that.

There was another reason.

Eyepatch, Even tho you're clearly weaker then Hood, you still managed to defeat him somehow.

I wonder, if I go all out, will you show it to me?

"Bow arts: Razer arrow!"

-Taking two fingers, Archer snaped them and created an arrow emitting pure Blue light, with what would appear to be swirls of wind and pure Séra energy going around it.

-He released it within a second of making it and hit Rin's Wyvern slash, both attacks created a tremendous amount of wind, which only send Rin flying backward to the edge of the ring.

s.h.i.t, s.h.i.t, s.h.i.t...DON'T FALL!

Huh, save!

"Let's see how you take these!" -Said Archer while still standing at the same spot as before.

"Bow Arts: One hundred Holy Arrows!"

-The one arrow he created suddenly stoped when being released from the bow, and from behind it, one after another, a rain of arrows started appearing.

"What the h.e.l.l?"

-Faster and stronger, these arrows were on a completely other level from the ones he destroyed earlier.

So this is the difference between normal ones and his Séra arrows!

-Not knowing what to do Rin started cutting arrows, as fast as possible, but there were too many for him to handle, and it only got worse.

There's too many, and I don't think I can take any more of them.

-Each time Rin hit one, he didn't destroy them, they exploded by themselves, an Idea he got from fighting white knife in his previous match.

"Seems like the Idea was good, But I still need a lot more training!"

For now, from the hundred arrows that I can create as my limit, the one that I can make explode is around forty percent.

I need more training to perfect this.

-As the rain of arrows just kept coming and coming at him, no matter how hard he tried, Rin was unable to handle them all, and eventually got hit.

"Boom!"

-From all the smoke created by the explosions, One of the hundred arrows Archer shot managed to escape Rin's sword and made its way into his Sholder, and create a hole inside of it!

"Ah, s.h.i.tttt!!!"

-His focus lost, and now guardless, Rin is left as pray for the remaining 47 arrows in front of him, just waiting to be the next ones to do the same to him.

"...BOOM!"

-With a loud sound of an Explosion, the arrows made contact with his body and sent Rin flying through the air, all the way out of the Ring and pillar they were standing on.

"GUAH!"

"Don't tell me that's all it took! Show me the power which you used to beat Hood!"

"LIKE h.e.l.l IT WAS!!!"

Thanks to that drug my body can now move like it used to, and the wounds from the impact are recovering as well!

"I'll show you real h.e.l.l now!"

-Using Kanashimi he rotated himself in the opposite direction from which he was flying in, and activated "Little star" and created a hurricane of energy, which he used to crash-land himself in the middle of the ring.

"s.h.i.t, that hurts!"

-As he was throbbing on the ground, the hole in his shoulder kept spilling out more and more blood every pa.s.sing second.

I can't move my left arm anymore, I guess this is the extent of the drug, this is bad!

-The arrow that hit his shoulder, had also hit the bones and stoped the arm from making any further movements, during this fight.

-His arm wasn't the only problem right now, the hurricane of power that he created had still been active and was getting closer and closer to the pillar where the fight was taking place.

I may have f.u.c.ked that up.

-The wind got stronger and stronger as the hurricane got closer. Already injured, it was hard for Rin to hold on to Kanashimi, witch was stabbed into the ground, in order to prevent him from being taken by the strong winds it created.

"You only made a problem, but not to worry, I can fix it!"

-Archer's confidence, as well as his body movement, showed that, even with this sort of a big and powerful attack in front of him, he coud still counter or block it with ease.

-With a calm and strong form, he pulled the string of his bow towards himself and focused all of his attention at the heart of the hurricane.

"Bow arts: Null arrow!"

-Using "Mother Arrow" he created an arrow as thin as a thread and released it at the spot he was aiming at, the center of the hurricane.

-The arrow was barely visible, and you coud not hear any noise from it when Archer fired it. That said it was fast, it got to its target in no time, and when making contact, it made a sound so loud it coud be compared to that of a bomb going off.

-The sound was followed with a big explosion, creating a sphere-like shape in the hurricane and destroying it from the inside out, putting Rin's attack to a stop.

"No way, he managed to destroy that thing!"-Rin's face had a surprised look on it, as he was in a state of shook that Archer managing to destroy one of his strongest attacks.

The hurricane and Typhoons I create are very powerful, as they take around 25% of my Gathered energy to just create one of them, but I can't control them and they are a double-edged sword for me as well.

"Attack's like that are just bigger targets for me, so it's easier to destroy them!"-Archer's words. .h.i.t home, Rin's attacks were powerful but uncontrollable, and if that was the case archer had a clear advantage.

"That may be true, but big-scale attacks are not everything I have!"-Full of spirit and winning desire, Rin got up from the ground and took hold of his sword, Kanashimi.

-With his sholder and arm still injured, he took a battle stance and rushed at Archer. He used his sword skills to clash with him, but every attack he gave, Archer blocked with his bow.

-Attack after attack, they clashed for minutes, unlike before this was a battle of pure skill as martial artists. Rin's body slowly started to become slower and slower as his movements became duller.

"Huh? It this all you have, where is that power that beat Hood? Show it to me, I want to see it!"-Archer noticed how Rin's body movements slowed down and he tried forcing him to show him the "Power" he used to beat Hood, an enemy stronger than him.

"What are you?"-Confused, and not knowing what Archer is talking about, Rin's already tired and without breath, the body got only more tired, so he jumped backward and took a defensive stance.

-He needed to rest, the injury on his sholder got only worse from the nonstop clashing, and not to mention that the drug's effects were started to lose their effect, It wasn't looking so good for Rin.

d.a.m.n it, is he playing with me?

When I do a big attack he does the same and counters it, when I attack normally he defends normally. It really p.i.s.ses me off somehow!

"Non the less I need to finish this now or It will all be over!" -While saying that, the sight in front of him got all blurry and started moving, his leg's lost their strength as he fell down to one knee.

My body... I guess the drug is losing effect... that's not good.

"What, you're done already?"

-He stabbed Kanashimi into the ground and with the strength, he coud muster he stood back up. Roughly breathing, he pulled it out and took a never before seen stance.

This is the only Final art Alexander thought me and is my strongest attack. With this, I will finish this fight.

-He took tight hold of Kanashimi and put it in front of him, in a normal, basic sword stance. He closed his eyes and concentrated on his surroundings.

-He activated "Little star" and unlike before he released it into the air around him, and focusing on creating a serpent, kind of shape before opening his eyes and pulling up his sword.

"Through twenty world's and hundreds of planet's, the devourer of races and monsters, the one that destroys everything in his path, I summon thee to kill my enemies. Long sword style final art: Wyvern Storm!"

-While he othered the words, The energy he released earlier slowly took shape. As the entire Colosseum became covered in purple lightning, and the ginormous Wyvern that was created from the energy just looked from above the Colosseum and waited for Rin's command.

"Destroy him!"

-He pulled down his sword and the Ginormous Wyvern followed it's path, and entered the Colosseum, and strait attacked Archer with its full force.

"This might be a problem!"
