Conqueror

I managed to block her attack using last stand. Its gonna cost me heavily since this skill has a really long cooldown.

The blue outline of her armor suddenly turned red when she activated that skill. I wonder why.

"Blood Weapon, Sword and Shield." I needed to defend myself of her attacks. My armor is slowly crawling up to my chest and the dark armor is dissipating too. It seems it's slowly forming. I need to know the activation of this skill and how it triggers.

Val raised her hand to the air and casted a spell. "Soul Forming Mass." A large black collection of souls formed.

"No time. Sprint!" I rushed towards her while she was still casting that skill.

She swung her scythe and I quickly blocked it with my shield. Despite her using it one handed, she still kept up with all of my attacks.

She lowered her hand as if scratching the air and the black soul ball that she formed followed.

I ran with everything I got and managed to dodge her massive skill.

"You won't get away." As she had said that, the skill she casted suddenly formed a series of waves as if sucking me in to the middle.

"Black hole? Not really as powerful as a black hole but it's sucking me in to the middle with extreme force." I tried to walk forwards but moving while being sucked in is very difficult and restrictive.

[Achieved the maximum strength boost. +300%]

"What is that going to help me in this situation?!" As I said those words, I could feel the armor rising up to my head. "Its... Its forming? I just need large amounts of strength?" As the headgear of my armor was about to form, a sudden burst of air formed and cancelled out the skill Val casted.

"Impossible." Val muttered to herself.

I could feel every inch of my body screaming in pain but for some reason, I can handle the spikes digging into me.

[Unique skill, Pain Tolerance, if 80% of your body is wounded, you won't feel any pain.]

That just means I'm losing blood very quick. This goddamn Bloodlust is still trying to devour me even in this situation.

I jumped into the air and I actually hovered... As if I was..."Flying?" The wings behind my back formed with the armor. I can now fly freely. "Okay Val, round two." I retracted back both of my blood weapons. "Come, Bloodlust." And swapped it into this.

"Soul Arrows." A barrage of arrows rained down on the arena but the harsh winds of the blizzard arena lessened the momentum of the falling arrows but made them lose in a way that their falling patterns are random. Dodging them is hard but using this newly formed armor and Pain Tolerance, I couldn't take any damage and feel a thing.

"My turn!" Using my own blood as a medium, I formed a crescent blood pool and sliced it to Val. "Crescendo!"

A large vertical wound opened in her body.

"{Karmic Pain} Pa Ma Na Da Ba!" I opened up her wounds to deal even further damage.

"Futile." Val's wounded part of her body suddenly stopped opening even further.

"Tsk. That's enough damage anyway."

"Soul Stream." I could feel a large amount of energy forming into her hands.

"I need to get out of here quick!" I ran in circles until she fired that skill. I don't know what that is but the energy is getting higher and higher every second.

"Hyaa!" She aimed the skill at me and a burst of straight energy headed my way.

"No time to dodge..." I blocked it using my own armor. "I can't feel anything but I think my ribs are breaking." I was blown away a couple of meters with that insane skill and it was a highly concentrated blast.

[Arena changing...]

[Volcanic Ravine... arena randomly selected.]

The arena suddenly changed and the terrain that spawned behind me was a wall. I landed on it and broke the wall behind me and it spurted out heaps of lava. "Damn it..."

"Do it Val! Just a little bit more and we can get out of this hellish place!" Hera commanded her.

"This is a good arena... I don't know what's going to happen on my body after this fight... But I got to focus on what I'm going to do now." Looking at the arena, it's just high ravines and cracked grounds of lava. "Hmm... Bottomless box." I scooped up heaps of lava and put everything in the box. It'll be stored there forever and its an infinite storage.

"What are you doing? Stop wasting our time! Val, kill him already!"

"Understood." With Hera's commands, Val twirled her scythe and ran up to me again.

"Blood Weapon Rapier." I forged this weapon and dipped it into the bottomless box. As soon as I pulled it out, the rapier was glowing in red magma. "It worked! HAHA! This'll be a perfect place to store things to imbue my weapon with things."

Val swung her scythe at me but I blocked it with my dragonic arms covered in the armor and counter attacked with my rapier.

"Ah." Val was wearing a shocked expression. My rapier pierced through her armor and melted a small part of it until it pierced on the other side.

I backed up and flew into the air. "Blood Weapon Dagger." I dipped it into my bottomless box and it was also imbued with magma.

Val followed me into the air. "Soul Stream." This time, she didn't hold the skill long enough but I've been caught of guard and had been hit by the skill. It left a burn mark on my armor and I don't know if I took any damage but I persevered and got close to her.

"Blood Shards!" I used the skill Absorbant Body on my wings since I got hit by a lot and the threshold was at maximum. My wings released small particles of blood shards aimed at Val. It left small wound but enough to force her to block with her bare armor and weapon.

While my skill is shooting at her, I rushed up to her and pierced my rapier into her chest. It melted a part of her armor until it went through the other side.

"This is the end."

I put my dagger in my hand in a reverse grip and stabbed her in the chest with it. It melted her armor and pierced through her body.

Her eyes ran out of light. I retracted back my weapons and watched her fall to the ground.

"Val!" Hera ran up to her.
