Chapter 366 - In Motion
"I'm tired of waiting," said the wolf with his eyes glowing.
Theo's heart began to beat rapidly as he couldn't help but show an excited smile.
"…" Seeing such a reaction, the wolf fell silent for a moment before shaking his head. "Anyway, if it's not because of him, I wouldn't be here to teach you something."
"Are you going to give me another skill?" Theo asked with a solemn expression. Instead of an excited smile, he showed a calm and collected appearance, knowing there was no need to fear the wolf before him.
"What skill? You can't even use your skills properly to the point I need to teach you here."
Theo widened his eyes and asked, "Is it my illusion?"
"See? This is my point. You don't even understand the power behind the two skills you received from me." The wolf shook his head in disappointment.
"!!!" Theo was surprised and corrected his words. "Blink and Telekinesis."
The wolf harrumphed as he tried to pressure Theo with his giant body glaring at him. However, Theo simply stared at him without any trace of fear in his eyes.
"What I will teach you is how to use the two skills effectively and the current problem of your power… What did humans call it again? Control?" The wolf frowned before continuing, "Anyway, we only have two hours here. So… You and I are going to fight for two hours."
"A spar?" Theo opened his mouth in amazement.
"Don't worry. Even if you are going to die, you can be revived endlessly. All you need to do is to withstand ten attacks from me consecutively and you can be as good as the so-called Supreme Rank." Fenrir raised its paw. "Anyway, you can use all your skills here."
When the paw raised to the maximum point, Theo's white spear appeared in the air and eventually landed on Theo's hands.
"I will limit my strength to your level, so you can handle my strike. Now, we fight. Five minutes have passed." Fenrir didn't waste a single more time and swept his paw from the right, striking Theo.
"!!!" Theo was caught off guard and tried to use his spear's handle to stop the paw.
Bam.
As he said, the strength wasn't that powerful. The paw couldn't even blow him away.
When Theo thought he got a good grasp of Fenrir's strength, he noticed something coming from his left. He glanced to the side, finding twenty Magic Bullets flying just a few inches from the wolf's paw, curving according to the paw's structure.
"What?!" Theo quickly used another skill to block it. "Elemen—"
Unfortunately, he wasn't fast enough as those bullets pierced his body, killing him in the process.
His body disappeared for a second and reappeared the next second.
"Huh?!" Theo drew a gasp when he remembered what happened. He muttered inwardly, 'Did he just use his own body to block my vision? Creating a blindspot that allows the Magic Bullet to hit me?'
"What? There's not much time for you to think," snarled Fenrir while doing the same thing.
Theo blocked the paw again, and when the Magic Bullets appeared, he erected the Magic Shield. Due to the shock earlier, he couldn't do anything, but he managed to stay alive this time.
'To think he killed me in the first move…' Theo gulped down, understanding why he could kill a God.
However, what piqued his interest was how Fenrir used his body to release the Magic Bullets.
"Did you program the Magic Bullets to loop around your body so you can make a sneak attack?"
"Hmph. Sneak attacks are not a thing. What I know is an opportunity. You don't get killed because you are ambushed… You are killed because you give the ambush opportunity to your enemy. If you're the target, you simply need to destroy that opportunity and never let your enemy have it, but if you are the assassin…" Fenrir raised his paw again and did the same thing.
This time, Theo saw Fenrir covering his claws with red-colored energy. He waved the paw and created three crescent-shaped red claws that struck Theo's spear.
Theo obviously used his strength to block this attack, but the force was too much to handle because he needed to wait for the Magic Bullets to come.
Unfortunately for him, he died once again after the ground trembled and Magic Bullets came out, piercing his body.
"…" Theo reappeared the next second and saw ten holes in the ground. "Magic Bullets pierced through the ground and hit me from below?"
"If you are the assassin, what you need to do is to create that opportunity." Fenrir nodded with a serious expression.
"So, that powerful strike was to stop my movement while the first wave of Magic Bullets was to distract my mind, making me focus on that. Thus, the opportunity was created…" Theo was shaken, realizing how amazing Fenrir was.
"You can say that. Isn't this your specialty?" Fenrir snorted. "You keep falling for my tricks… Pathetic."
To his surprise, Theo didn't feel offended at all. He simply observed his movement and listened to his words carefully because all of them were words of wisdom. He wanted to learn from Fenrir because he felt he could get stronger.
"Still, you summoned your Magic Bullets first because you knew where it would land. Then, you used that paw to make sure I stayed in that position." Theo narrowed his eyes.
"What you have been doing until now is using your skills according to what general people do, such as your Magic Bullet or Telekinesis. You have been too fixated on them. Every time you used Magic Bullets, you instinctively raised your left hand and summoned it. If it were me, I would have summoned one behind my back to avoid you from realizing it. The same applies to your Telekinesis. You kept using it together with the External Flow in a very straightforward way, copying that girl's technique.
"What you need is not that. Do you know why they are called a Fist Style? It's because each movement means another attack. Straight punch, uppercut, spinning the arm, and so on. What you are doing is just the simplest one.
"The thing you need right now is the flexibility to use External Flow. Have you realized that she spun her arm to create that spinning Magic Power? Have you realized the flow can be easily created as long as you follow a certain movement?" Fenrir looked down on him while saying, "This is one of the things I will teach you right now. I call it…
…In motion."
