After witnessing the incident that happened earlier. Soma, with his enhanced brain, made a breakthrough in his thinking. He began to fix his stance and dash forward for the wolf who was still focusing its attention on Hina. Hina, who directly received the overwhelming gaze from the wolf, stiffened her body as her heart felt like it was gripped by a raw hand making her panting on the spot.


    But, she grits her teeth trying to endure the pressure until.


    "HEY!!".


    The loud shout that came from Soma whounched himself toward the Wolf awoke her paralyzed mind. The wolf was distracted and Hina saw this as a change began to circle to the right side of the wolf while gathering some mana in her hands.


    Soma who faced the wolf head-on. Began to think fast, even after he noticed something earlier, it doesn''t mean he must proceed with the n. He needed some preparation first, so heunched his second attack. But the same thing happened, when he entered the wolf range his body a gust of violent wind assaulted him and made his body stop in his advance.


    His feet were losing their grip on the ground as the wolf knitted his brows.


    "Grrr".


    The wolf snarled, and then the glow in his body became a bit brighter. He concentrated the barrier wind to a single point which was to get rid of Soma. The pressure was so intense that Soma''s feet were leaving the ground and he was sted away from the ce he stood earlier.


    "Tch, that wind is so troublesome".


    Rolling on the ground a couple of times, Soma began to fix his stance and turned his gaze again toward the wolf, wary about the iing attack. The wolf also gazed at his eyes with knitted brows, because of the height difference the wolf seemed to be looking down on him.


    Soma notices that the wolf''s corner mouth lifted showing its sharp canine as if mocking the futile attempt the foolish human made to attack him.


    A blue vein began to manifest in his temple as he met the wolf''s gaze. However, he didn''t want to be swallowed by the wolf antics, so he took a deep breath to calm his throbbing veins. He knitted his brows as he noticed the figure of Hina who was standing behind the wolf ready tounch the magic spell she prepared.


    He tensed his body to prepare another attempt to prate the wolf''s invisible shields.


    Hina once more began to create the magic and the temperature around her rose and a swirling of bright me began to appear from an empty space before it took shape into a brightnce that was ready to pierce its enemies.


    "Firence".


    [MP: 340/460]


    Feeling the iing threat behind. The wolf turned its attention and began to gather the wind that surrounded him into a single point behind him to block the mence.


    Soma, seeing that as a chance, began to dash away and prepare his attack. For the third time, he is doing the same attack pattern to know what the wolf will do after getting hit in two directions. Soma opened his eyes wide at the assumption he had proved to be true. "I am certain, now".


    He is currently standing inside the wolf range, and not wanting this chance to slip, he concentrates the strength in his body toward his right fist. He clenched it so hard that it left a red mark on his palms.


    The wolf who shows its defenseless back will be Soma''s punching bag. He intends to thrust his fist forward but the wolf with the small explosion that urred behind him, swiftly turns his neck a hundred and eighty degrees in his direction. Then, using his flexible body the wolf swings his right paw with its sharp ws approaching Soma''s side.


    Soma, who was looking at the fast-approaching w, nted his feet firmly on the ground while taking a guard stance. However his instinct rang a huge rm that made his body shiver in fright, so instinctively he raised the Mana inside his body before the paws managed to make contact with his right side of the body.


    "Guh".


    [Oni Strengthening Techniques activated]


    [Consume 50 Mana/Second]


    [Remaining time 11 seconds]


    As the wolf''s paws shed, it reverberated throughout his whole body, every nerve jolted with a surge of sensation, sending a shockwave of pain rippling through his being. Time seemed to slow down as if the force had momentarily frozen him in ce.


    However, the truth is not like that Soma was being sted away while his consciousness began to assimte after a huge collision that made his mind disconnected from his body for a moment, because of the huge shock affecting his body.


    "Soma?!".


    Hina who saw what happened opened her mouth while wailing in worry about the condition of the boy, who is now lying on his stomach, twenty meters from the wolf.


    "Grrr".


    The wolf let out a threatening growl that made Hina''s body freeze in ce as she began to grit her teeth, eyes were blurry because of the frustration she felt from this fight. But, soon she saw Soma rise from his position in a kneeling posture.


    ".. Soma, I am d".


    Hina''s tensed mind loosened a bit seeing Soma''s figure who was kneeling while panting. She knitted her brows because seeing Soma slowly stood up while something in him changed. Soma''s Body was enveloped by a crimson aura that shen chills down to the spine, for anyone who saw it. His aura was so sinister that made Hina, who felt relief for his safety consumed by dread.


    "..Soma?".


    "...".


    [Oni Wrath activated]


    [User consciousness is being consumed by Rage]

    [Sess in nullifying the corroding process of user minds]


    [Consume 100 MP/Second]


    [Remaining time 5 seconds left]


    "Hina!! Prepare a big magic that will trap him whole and burn the air that surrounds that wolf".


    Hina who was feeling anxious about his change and with a sudden request Soma threw at her made her brain halt for a moment.


    "Hurry up, I will give you three seconds to create it".


    ".. Ha?".


    Soma with his new power, after using the skill he recently learned, began to dash forward. He didn''t have the leeway because the notification window that appeared before his eyes started to count the remaining time.


    [5]


    The wolf, realizing the change to his enemy, began to focus its full attention on Soma andpletely ignored the other figure who was preparing its next move.


    With the sudden surge of strength, Soma''s body felt much lighter as he began to run straight ahead toward the wolf. It took only a moment of nce for him to arrive at the invisible shield surrounding the wolf. But because of the second collisions that burn most of its air content, the air that surrounds the wolf feels much weakerpared to the first one it manifested.


    Soma, using his run earlier, stomped the hard ground until it made a spider web in front of the windshield. He retracted his fist behind then mmed it toward the invisible wind that still covered the wolf''s body from the iing attack.


    [4]


    A boom resonated from the collision of the attack, and it was followed by the sound of a crackling of lightning that spread arounding out from Soma''s gauntlets. With his body that was covered in mana made the gauntlets in his hands, get some sort of residue from it and it produced some electricity that made the wolf for the first time feel the iing danger.


    "Awooo".


    The wolf began to howl as he raised its right paw before it glowed in a green light. The wolf swings its paw down sending a diagonal sh created frompressed air, it cuts through the airing Soma''s way.


    Soma, who saw the iing attack sidestepped to the right side, but the wolf was not done, began to inhale a deep breath before opening its maw and sending a small tornado that sted Soma from his ce.


    "Kuuh".


    [3]


    After rolling a couple of times Soma used the momentum of his roll to get on his feet and ready his stance again. He turned his gaze ahead and met the eyes of the wolf. With time still ticking, Soma kicked the ground and ran with everything he got.


    The wolf also began to send a sh that formed frompressed air flying toward Soma vertically, diagonally, and horizontally.


    Soma, who saw the shing, felt that his mind was in a trance. The world that was filled with bright colors began to turn dull as his head began to receive only the important information while he was in the fight.


    He dodged the iing vertical sh with minimal movement by zig-zagging to the right and resuming his running, then the second he lowered his running stance and elerated further, next to the horizontal sh he jumped before rolling his body forward and soon resumed his running he did all of that in a single fluid motion.


    [2]


    Then the moment he waited for came. The wolf intends to summon another wind that will protect him from the iing danger.


    "Firewall".


    [MP: 40/460]


    Hina raised her hands and shouted the spell name of the magic she prepared as she knitted her brows while drenched with sweat all over her body.


    The wolf got distracted as the brightyer of me began to emerge from the ground, enveloping his surroundings and creating a cage that entrapped him inside. The wolf looks around while trying to activate his magic trying to summon some wind to create another protective barrier.


    But, with the intense me that burned every air surrounding him, the wolf''s action was dyed and that dy was something Soma had been waiting for all this time.


    "Lightning rage".


    Soma who was still in his trance dull world. activated the skill he kept for his trump, but he thought to himself there was no next time if he couldn''t win in this fight.


    His right gauntlet began to shine in a white glow, with a deafening crack. A brilliant bolt of lightning began to dance across his gauntlet coating it with its raging nature and illuminating the dull gray world in his sight. His hands trembled like crazy because of the violent power the gauntlet released, and Soma was receiving it directly.


    With theyer of towering me that separated the two enemies that engaged in Mortal Kombat. Soma without any hesitation, closed his eyes and jumped toward the me that erected before him. Intense heat began to burn his skin and evaporated the moisture that stuck to his skin. He grits his teeth while marching forward trying to finish the battle.


    As the intense heat that enveloped his body dissipated, he opened his eyes only to find the Wolf was ready with its puffing chest inhaling a huge amount of air in his lungs. Then sted it away in the form of a tornado roar.


    "Aaaah".


    With do or die spirit, Soma also thrust his right gauntlet which was coated by the raging dragon that was coiling itself on Soma''s hands.


    The two deadly powers met. The time turned still for a moment before it created a great shockwave that sted away the firewall that Hina created and a storm began to descend upon the battlefield where Soma and the Wolf shed.
