YM778.TV Chapter 83: Hemokinesis
Pumping the last bit of mana into the now fattened-up fireball which spanned more than 7 meters, Blake pulled his hand from beneath the rapidly spinning ball of fire and bringing Kate down to his chest, he went on one knee and covered her with his body, a dark red film of mana spreading over him and Kate just as the fireball became unstable and exploded outwards, releasing a wave of thick intense flames that spread out in all direction.
With Rehabab already having larva geysers, and pools popping up around them, there was no substantial thing for the Blake\'s fire to collide with except for the enemy demons larva spawns.
When the raging wave of flames came in contact with the larva spawns, rather than use its intense heat to harm creatures made of fire hotter than it, it instead hit the summons with its powerful momentum, shattering them as they collided.
The wave of fire went for more than 100 meters and by the time it began dying down, Kate was nowhere in the vicinity and Blake and Rehabab were already engaged in a heated sword fight.
With their respective weapons, both men swung their blades at each other countering and defending as their huge figures moved with unquestionable power and incredible speed.
With Rehabab having a taller build and a much bigger sword, Blake lost out a lot to the infernal demon in terms of strength but he made up for that with one of his new skills "Hemokinesis"
"Hemokinesis, the ability to control and manipulate blood, to be able to influence both your blood and that of those around you."
At first, Blake had wanted to use this technique to control the blood in Rehabab, but after a few failures and a rethink about the literal crack of red magma on the other demon\'s body, Blake figured that either Rehabab was too strong for him or the man did not have blood in him.
For a few seconds, Blake had been stomped on what to do considering how beat up he was getting, and then he thought of using the ability on himself.
With his blood being the target of his control, Blake found himself easily able to make it obey his will.
Making his blood pump harder to his arms when she wanted to perform a swing and making it move more smoothly when he wanted to make a flexible manoeuvre.
At first, Blake hadn\'t been proficient with the technique, finding it rather hard to balance focusing his mind on both the battle and controlling his blood, but the intense pressure coming from Rehabab whose swings felt like they wanted to break Blake\'s skeletal frame had him quickly adapting and learning.
Ignoring the intense pain in his palm from the sword, Blake blanketed out the entire word and focused on the battle he was embroiled in, his eyes roaming all about Rehabab as he looked for an opening and soon, he saw one.
Just as Rehabab swung his heavy blade upwards, looking to slice Blake in two starting from his legs, Blake gathered his strength and spun himself around escaping Rehabab\'s attack while swinging his sword at the man\'s head his sword held in both arms, Blake not minding that he might have overreached.
In his desire for blood, Blake was just about to set his sword on fire and cement his chance of taking the opposing demon\'s head, when he remembered the rejection, he was currently facing from his blade and cancelled the idea.
"I need to get some good breathing space and get myself a new sword"
With a snort, Rehabab in a show of strength and body control leaned backwards so Blake\'s swing missed him, the top of his weapon falling short of touching Rehabab by quite some distance.
Wanting to take advantage of Blake overreaching, Rehabab swung at him, but then he felt a sudden spike of mana from him when he blinked, he found that the the world before his eyes wasn\'t as it was a second ago.
No longer was Blake holding onto his blade with two arms, he was now holding it with one arm and as Rehabab successfully dodged this attack, Blake\'s left hand which had lied dormant to his side suddenly went into action, shooting towards him a rapidly expanding ball of fire already in it.
"An illusion" Rehabab rightly deduced.
The thought to move away from Blake flashed in Rehabab\'s head but seeing the still growing size of the fireball, he threw away this thought and instead had his mana core churning harder, an explosion of mana coming out of him and to Blake\'s surprise he ignored the approaching fireball and continued with his attack, his blade moving a lot faster.
Before the burst of mana from Rehabab, Blake\'s fireball had been set to hit the demon a good enough time before the heavy sword hit him, but now this had been reversed, with a snort, rather than slam the fireball on Rehabab as he had wanted, Blake fired it at the demon, while he himself leaped backward.
All this happened within seconds, and by the time the sound of an explosion sounded out, an unhurt Blake who had moved backwards had another ball of fire spinning on his palms, the ball expanding till it was half his size within seconds and then he fired it at Rehabab who\'s position was still covered in smoke from the earlier attack.
"He\'s an infernal demon, what I\'m doing probably feels like a bath to him," Blake thought with a rapidly beating heart and while he kept his gaze on Rehabab, Blake had the system shop pop up, the weapons category opened without delay.
[Refined Heavy sword: weapon can be used to channel mana and it can also convert mana to any desired nature of the user.

Standard steel sword: A quality Blade for a warrior which can be expected to serve a ranker quite well in battle

"Why are the prices for these things so high," Blake thought in surprise and he had just been about to bitterly buy the standard steel weapon when his gaze shot to his left, his eyes peering into the steam that radiated from the larva crack on the floor and his gaze coming into contact with two women, one who should have long since fled this area and another whom should be very dead.
