Blood Assimilation

220 Deranged Black-Horned Demon

Although Randy heard the black-horned demon’s confident words, he still felt like it was too much to reveal one’s weakness in a battle.

However, it was not like the current situation was detrimental to him; It was quite the opposite. After all, the information benefited him greatly, so he did not mind the demon’s blunder in the slightest.

On the other hand, the black-horned demon continued: “But I genuinely am curious about how your puppet can still move even without your active control. If I could just... Anyway, shall we resume our fight? You may not know this, but we have an appointment to uphold, and we’re getting quite late in delivery, so I would like to get this over with as quickly as possible.”

‘Appointment? Delivery? Does he mean the ‘sacrifice’ they mentioned in their conversation a while ago? Do they mean human sacrifice? Well, either way, they’re not letting me off even if I try to run away from this place right now, so I might as well go all-out to fight them and then find a way to escape if possible.’

With that decided, Randy cleared his thoughts and casually replied: “Sure, let’s do that.”

Bang!

Immediately, both of them kicked the ground, resulting in a reverberating quake, approached each other, and then unleashed fierce fist strikes in succession, which caused shockwaves upon each contact of their fists.

Randy had been using his Void Ripping Punch technique on the black-horned demon the whole time since he was more confident in this fist technique he practiced.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

He had used this fist technique during his life-threatening encounters in the past. As such, his mastery of the fist technique could be considered proficient.

.....

However, the effect seemed to not work on the demon as he had initially thought when he decided to use the fist technique. Even so, it didn’t seem like it was utterly ineffective. Otherwise, he would’ve been defeated by now.

The game-changing aspect of the Void Rippling Punch was the accumulation of strength, which in this case, was the accumulation of waves from each fist strike.

The first form was the ordinary strike, Void Punch, the second form was the ripple strike, Wave Punch, and the final form was the Shockwave strike, Void Rippling Punch.

Therefore, as time went by, the effect of his punches would stack by gathering the surroundings wind into waves around the user’s fist with each strike. Furthermore, the residue of the wave generated from each fist strike would slowly permeate the bodies of his opponents.

Therefore, when Randy struck his opponents with his fist technique, it would show its destructive prowess by causing minimal internal damage to the opponent’s body from the gradual rippling waves.

However, when the gathered waves stack to a certain degree and then fully unleashed, coupled with the gradual rippling waves that had permeated the inside of the opponent’s body, the resultant effects would be akin to the opponent having chaotic tidal waves within their body.

Subsequently, as those waves churn inside the opponent’s body, they would cause tremendous and severe internal damage to the opponent’s internal organs.

But for some reason, during their brief exchange, this black-horned demon seemed able to easily ward off the gradual rippling waves that tried to enter his body through his pores by using the eerie purple aura surrounding him. That aura around the black-horned demon’s body seemed impenetrable by his fist technique’s effect.

‘Is that his body aura? No matter.’ Randy wondered to himself but ignored it for now, as he was finally ready for his counterattack.

Abruptly, a glint of golden light flashed across his eyes. His entire body began glowing with radiant light, which caused his Shadow Beast Leather Armor to lose its shadow aura and protective effects, seemingly suppressed by the intense holy light emitting from his body.

Not only that, but around his body, there was a bellowing gust of wind that whistled through the air as tremendous as if sharp blades were cutting through the air, followed by immense wind pressure.

A moment later, Randy abruptly clenched his fist, then instantly, the surrounding air rippled with an ear-splitting shrill as if resonating with his fist movement.

Whoosh–

At this moment, the black-horned demon sensed something amiss as his dark-purple eyes glowed intensely as he abruptly blocked in front of him with both arms.

However, before he could react, Randy abruptly appeared in front of him.

After using his assimilation ability, Randy’s hair visibly turned silvery white and semi-transformed into his werewolf assimilated state, then activated its innate Gale Riding skill along with the awakened the Wind Sailing skill that had great synergy with each other, and then breached the distance between them in an instant.

Without hesitation, he threw a chaotic punch that carried not only the stacked Void Rippling Punch’s shockwaves but a light-infused aura generated from the Sacred Aura skill.

Shortly after, the highly concentrated destructive force gathered within his right hand’s fist, aimed directly at the black-horned demon.

BOOM!!!

Unable to block the incoming in time due to being taken by surprise, the black-horned demon was instantly blown away by the light-infused chaotic wind; His body flew almost like a sack of flattened meat.

In the path, black blood sprayed from the corner of the black-horned demon’s mouth and all of his other orifices from the internal damage. Not only that, but his chest had gushed wounds from the light-infused chaotic wind.

A short while later, he landed a couple of meters away, breathing heavily, as if he was on his last breath. He appeared to be coughing up a mouthful of blood as he sat on his back with a dazed expression.

“Did I get him? Is it over?”

Randy wondered, but a sudden reverberating manic laughter in the distance caused a chill to run down his spine.

“Kukuhahaha! I can’t believe this!”

“Very interesting! Transformation, enhancement, stacked wind-related movement techniques, one of which seemed very familiar, and then that final fist strike, a combination of turbulent wind and light aura! Although that aura seemed unrefined, it was still a spectacular impromptu orchestration, enough to catch me off-guard! I applaud you for such a feat, human!”

“To be capable of unleashing such sophisticated combination attacks in the heat of the moment, enough to injure me?! Truly marvelous! I’m truly impressed by you, human! You’re indeed worth capturing! You should feel honored, for you’re the first human to pick my interest to this extent!”

It was the black-horned demon’s deranged voice.

Despite being utterly bartered from the attack, he seemed completely unfazed by his life-threatening injuries. Instead, he wildly laughed as if he had gone insane.
