Zerø : The Eight Supremes

Overwhelm

'Sword Form : Longsword"

Two swords, with the help of aether energy, were shining under the light of the sun.

A centaur, almost ten feet tall, with Guandao, swung its weapon downward, like splitting a log, and what resisted that attack were two longswords that is black and white in color. The boy then managed to stop the force by planting his feet on the ground, and using Mana Rush to equalize the force.

He then kicked the Guandao aside, and then jumped to a nearby tree, then used the tree to jump towards the Centaur. The opposition made a step back and swung the Guandao towards the boy flying towards him.

The boy then made his mana go onto his feet, made a shockwave, and changed course midflight. He grabbed his white sword, swung it down to double the force of the Guandao and make the giant beast lose its balance.

The Centaur then retracted its weapon, he thrusted it again towards the boy, which in return received it and made a distance. His gaze fell onto the beast's gaze, and was locked in a staring contest.

'Sword Form : Dagger'

Held in his hand reversely, he ran in a zigzag line to avoid being predicted. Sometimes, he will jump left, and then left again to confuse the beast on what will he do.

He used the dagger to ride the winds easier and faster. A moment later, the boy can be seen swinging the dagger to parry the Guandao aimed at him.

Sliding a few meters away, it stopped him from rolling away from the adversary. Had his power been weak, he would've been sent to the end of the forest.

"Inspect."

Wooden Centaur [97%]

"Still?" He blurted out. It has been an hour, and he did not even chipped away its health. It is not questionable though, for the Centaur heals again and again.

Steeling his resolve, running away until they get far from his comrades that are still assimilating the Outbreak. And also, he believes that a trump card will come if he stays tenacious.

Believing this, a bout was once again initiated. Swing here and there, evade, attack, parry, again and again until they come back into a stalemate and distance themselves from each other.

"Inspect."

Wooden Centaur [95%]

With that, he roared and then lock himself into a stalemate again, chipping away the Centaur little by little.

"Inspect."

Wooden Centaur [91%]

Every time the exchange ends, inspect will be used at it so he can be sure that he is making a progress, but it was also taking a toll in his body.

[Core Power : 97%]

"To think that I would waste that much and have low efficiency. This will take forever." Muttered in a low voice, he submitted to the fact that taking this thing down will be a hassle.

And the only thing that keeps him moving? Seeing the bastard's health slowly chipping away. So every moment they exchange blows, and then he go to distance to taunt the Centaur, he will use his Inspect Skill, and then fighting spirit will soar within him.

"Inspect."

It took two hours just to make its health go from a hundred percent to this rate. Panting heavily, he smiled and confidence filled his body.
