chapter 232 the black bow: nightwalker marcus who was still struggling to free himself experienced a sense of dread unlike any other, it was like his body and mind told him to run away now. marcus' expression turned grave as, it was something out of fantasy, something he read in the record but now he was seeing it. "....." "dragon breath!" the phantasmal casting voice entered marcus's ears just as his internal alarm went off. he looked up and saw what nemesis was doing. a beam of light so tiny it was laughable came down. although it looked insignificant, anyone who could sense the power contained within would avoid it at all costs. wherever the beam went, it destroyed the object in its way, even the air around it wasn't spared. his ten eyes focused on this attack, the light beam was too quick for him to dodge. then, the beam hit his scaly body. pszztt the beam pierced marcus and it hit the dark barrier of isolation behind him. the barrier did well to contain the vicious attacks they threw at each other before, however, when the dragon's breath touched the barrier, it didn't take a second to destroy the barrier. with the barrier gone in a rain of dark fragments, the remnants got turned into feathers of light that slowly fell upon the ground, even outside the barrier, raining down on the forest. it was a devastating scene. luna wanted to check how nemesis was doing but she sent her voice to reassure her. meanwhile, nemesis observed the ground. the ground riddled with holes was still fuming with smoke and dust. when a gust blew away the dust, they could see a long gully etched into the land. the drain was easily more than a hundred meters in length when it tapered off. that's the result of the dragon's breath coming too close to the ground.n/-o--v(-e(-l./b.(1)-n nemesis narrowed her eyes when another wave of smoke and dust clouded her view, she waved her hand and a gale from an unknown origin blew the dust away. she could finally see the scene of her carnage. a scaly figure stood wobbly there, the victim of his attack looked like it would tip over if something touched it. nemesis looked at the figure with scaly skin armor and she shook her head with slight remorse. "you evaded death at the last second, huh?" the receiver of this attack looked completely battered, as it was bleeding all over. its dark scales were dyed red by its own blood. the monster also lost a significant portion of its left torso, accordingly, it also lost an arm. the bloody stump pulsed and oozed in a disgusting manner. cough! cough! marcus spat out blood as his bear-trap-looking fangs were dyed red with blood too. he applied pressure to his nasty wound before raising his arm to look at the damage. with a surging pain that threatened to push the oxygen out of his lungs, marcus painstakingly looked at his left torso, drawn by a sense of something missing. when he saw the full extent of damage dealt to him, his body shivered. "damn! damn... damn... damn..damn..!!!" it was a mix of sad sob and angered yell, he raised his voice as his killing intent exploded upwards with his dark dou qi, his dirty blood also splattered around him. like a beast on its last legs, marcus looked like a pitiful creature. marcus looked at nemesis who was still floating above him. his bloodshot eyes zoomed in on her as dark origin swirled around him, the dark origin couldn't reverse the damage done to him. "kill! i will absolutely kill you! kill you, you hear me?!" spitting out blood, marcus shrieked while nemesis watched with furrowed brows. she nonchalantly watched marcus growl at him like a dying beast. knowing he stood no chance, he had to flee, marcus growled like he was not happy with this choice either. turning into a dark blur of light, he flew toward the outside, drawing a trail of dark origin and blood. the blinding flash of dark light caused the spectators to look away instinctively. ''you think that'll be easy?" nemesis scowled then she teleported into the sky and he trained his vision on the retreating dark light. instead of using teleportation to catch the assailant, she breathed in deeply. swoosh! she summoned a black bow and held it, aiming at the fleeing marcus. "nightwalker." her gaze was like the arrow that tagged marcus. she looked at the figure which was fast disappearing in her vision and she trained the bow's aim on marcus. then, she tugged at where the bowstring would be. ''hmm?" marcus who was running for his life suddenly felt very threatened. he slowed his pace down to turn his head and look in the direction where this ominous feeling was coming from. what he saw made his scales stand on their ends and his ugly face distort with fear. like a pair of wings made of black crystals, the bow and its arrow started shining with beautiful astral light that looked like nemesis was drawing power from the night. the bow and its breathtaking beauty outshone the surrounding darkness. starlight gathered and streamed into the arrow-like bees returning to their hives. with sounds that pleased the ears very much, the starlight energy charged up nightwalker, further materializing the nocked energy arrow. that energy arrow was made with silvery starlight and sprinkled with astral light, it was placed between his tab hand and the bow. the bow was pointed in the direction of marcus who continued running for his life. drawn in by the magnificence of the arrow and its bow, luna couldn't return to her senses. nemesis who basked in astral light looked like the god of the night who descended from her throne to strike down her foe. meanwhile, marcus' dark origin started rampaging out of control the dark power within him sensed the incoming danger. his sweat fell along with his blood, marcus's heart got covered in trepidation as he immediately threw energy conservation to the wind, without caring for his wounds or energy consumption, he used every ounce of power within him to run faster. he did this so he could get himself out of the bow's range. "argh!"
