Surrounded by the eternal blizzard, Ezekial began to plummet down to the ground. His face was covered in his own blood, only making him look an insane attractive rather than a cute attractive.

His body waved around wildly, getting controlled by the raging winds wrapping around him. His speed got quicker and quicker, combined with the fact that he was still glowing red, he looked like a human comet.

Kai watched coldly from above before letting out a sigh. His entire face was numb, a mixture of the freezing cold and the fact he had just gotten punched in the face close to thirty times. One of his eyes was stinging and closing on itself, but that was the worst of the punch related injuries he had suffered.

Then, he let out another sigh as he deactivated Flight, beginning to pencil dive to the ground.

Unlike Kai, Ezekial had no skill that could allow him to fly, meaning he had no way to control himself as he fell. The snow stung, it was like he was getting shot by dozens of pellet guns every single second.

But that wasn't the worst part, the worst part would be the landing.

Ezekial continued to spin as he fell, the castle below got bigger and bigger as he got closer and closer to the ground.

Until eventually, he was seconds away from hitting it.

Managing at the last second to turn his back to the ground, Ezekial braced for impact and-

Coughed up some blood.

His back bent at an unnatural angle, making a U shape as he impaled himself on one of the spires atop the castle.

He slid down the spire, the size of the hole in his stomach slowly growing until he eventually stopped sliding.

Ezekial blacked out for a second, overwhelmed by the pain of some of his internal organs getting obliterated, but then he caught sight of a flame in the sky slowly getting brighter and brighter.

Biting his lip and drawing even more blood, Ezekial began to punch the part of the spire that was above him. His knuckles banged against it, loud clangs sounding out as his bones reverberated.

Punch after punch, the integrity of the spire weakened, until eventually the tip of it broke off.

Roaring in pain, Ezekial gripped the small bit of steel left above him and pulled himself off the remaining bit of spire.

Falling onto the roof of the castle a few meters below, Ezekial spat out even more blood as he doubled over. He gripped at the hole in his stomach, but luckily all that spilled out was blood. The human body got stronger the higher level one became. Beheading was still nearly guaranteed to kill someone instantly, but losing some internal organs and having a massive hole in your stomach was bound to weaken you. Still, it would heal eventually, although incredibly slowly.

The next moment, the roof of the castle trembled as something else crashed down on top of it. Another wave of dust shrouded the area, stinging Ezekial's eyes as he lifted hand up to cover them.

A few seconds later, when the dust had spread out, Ezekial spotted what had caused that crash.

Kai was stuck in the roof of the castle. His lower half was below the roof, meanwhile his top half was on the same level as Ezekial. His plan had been to build up speed and stomp down on Ezekial with all that built up momentum, but he had sadly missed by about a meter and ended up getting his bottom half stuck in the roof.

Luckily, it didn't actually do that much recoil damage to him as the spot of the roof he landed on was actually rather weak.

Pulling himself out, Kai spotted Ezekial curled over in a pool of his own blood. Curiously, he tilted his head, wondering if that fall had really done that much damage.
