I Can Upgrade My Talent In Everything

Chapter 242 So Close Yet So Far



'Rudimentary Field!' A metallic wave came out from his sword, that spreads instantly into the surroundings. "I hope this could help me close the gap a bit."

"Hmmm... I felt a little slower than usual." Ceterus muttered as he tried to do various punches in the air. He could see his reaction speed became slower. Because of this, he tried to spread his perception, and he felt a subtle force seeping into his skin.

"It seems it worked." Fein jumped higher into the sky and made thousands of slashing motions with incomparable speed. With the two hundred percent slow debuff, now he might have a chance to hit the President!

His hands turned into afterimages. Just like that, thousands of sword lights with a speed faster than a man could blink. But in the face of these attacks, that seemingly could drown anyone, Ceterus boldly calculated the trajectories in his mind.

SHH! SHH! SHH!

Then, when the sword lights arrive, his feet moved subtly by a few inches, perfectly dodging the barrage of sword lights, but it wasn't as smooth as before as his body had various cuts in different parts, and some even managed to slice his hair strands. 'I really became slower than normal.'

After dodging all the attacks, he turned around, only to see depressions on the ground and various gushes with different measures. He could even affirm that you can make a river with deep and wide gullies as long as you filled them with water!

"You're good." Ceterus stretched his body. The small scratches that bled earlier had already healed. "Your ability that could slow me down and your fast swordsmanship had a good effect when combined, but that's not enough to push me in the corner. Yet in terms of damage, I have to admit that my attacks aren't as powerful as yours."

Fein just smiled in return. 'I still didn't use my strongest attack.'

He wants to make sure that it would hit when used it. After all, he can only do his strongest attack once. If he did manage to land it, winning isn't impossible, as his strongest attack might even embarrass an SS rank degu user.

"What!?" Anthony's eyeballs almost pop out of their socket when he heard Ceterus's claim.

He can't imagine just how it was possible to have damage comparable to S rank while one is in A rank!

"Don't underestimate our friend. Remember, he still didn't use the new ability of his sword? Now, I'm curious what its effect was, and it seems that we have the chance to see it today."

"The strength of my attacks won't matter if I can't even hit you."

Fein became a phantom as he used his Flashing Dash to accelerate his body instantly.

Ceterus squinted, as he could see in his eyes how the other party moved. 'Did he just break the constraint of gravity and inertia!?'

This is the first time he saw footwork like this. With that, Ceterus didn't want to fall into a passive situation so he finally took the initiative.

He appeared in front of Fein and threw a kick at his neck. Fein entered his chess perception, but even then, he was unable to follow the kick with his eyes. So, he didn't have an option but to use his 'Ghecko Substitution' just to dodge this. He knew that if the kick manage to hit him, his bones might crack.

Ceterus was about to land on the other party's neck, but the latter suddenly vanished in front of his eyes. 'Huh?'

Suddenly, he sensed an ominous behind. Without hesitation, he ducked his head and a blade pass through it. Then he rolled his body on the ground as he felt that the threat didn't diminish, but became even stronger.

A metallic blade pierced the ground where he was earlier. When he raised his head, he saw Fein pull the sword to the ground. "I didn't expect you to possess a teleportation ability."

'Fucking Instinctual Combat!' Fein cursed in his heart but he didn't respond to Ceterus and threw another slash in his place instead. If it was an A-rank he won't be able to dodge this, but in front of Ceterus, the sword moves in slow motion.

"Hmph!" Ceterus didn't dare to block the sword in his hand. After all, knew that even with the toughness of his body, he still can't afford Fein's exaggeratedly lethal attacks.

He stared at the sword and lines of trajectories appeared in his sight. Just as he was about to follow those, he saw Fein smirking at him. Suddenly, the blade exuded an intense golden light that deprive him of his vision!

'A chance,' Fein put his hands on the hilt of his sword. Now that he managed to create an opening with the 'Golden Spark' of his Abyssal Blade. He couldn't let it slip!

A crimson sword light appeared that was faster than before, and the lights left flames on its trail

"Shit, I got caught off guard!" Ceterus's eyes felt itchy, but he didn't dare to do this. Instead, he instantly activated one of his abilities to multiply the gravity of the surroundings.

Fein felt that change, but he just shrugged it, as his body had long been used to moving under intense pressure. So, he didn't just stop with one slash; he substitute himself with a piece of rock beside Ceterus and lifted his sword to pierce Ceterus in the chest.

Ceterus felt a double dangerous attack in his perception. And he felt Fein's presence. "You're not affected by the change in gravity!?" As he said this, he didn't he didn't intend to hold back anymore or the two attacks would surely injure him!

DING!

[Trinity Dragon Form- Transforms the user's physique into a hybrid dragon. A dragon with traces of fire, lightning, and a skeletal dragon in its bloodlines!]

Ceterus' body released a strong shock wave that blew Fein five meters away! The released shock wave spread around and met the crimson light, but the shockwave couldn't even offer an ounce of resistance and it was sliced like butter.
