New Life Online 245 Crimson Cowl

"Those moves are not for my current state to fight but how about this?! CHRONOS FAIRY'S SECOND FORM!" She finally used her second form! It will give her better offensive and defensive capabilities, but will it be enough to stop Maisie with her techniques?! Her armor and weapon didn't change but her aura emits powerful sign of strength.

"..." Once again, Maisie disappeared from our sight and reappeared near Aurora! She's preparing another skill to defeat Aurora!

"CHRONOS' TIME LAPSE!" Wait... what?! Aurora suddenly disappeared! Did she just teleported somewhere?!

*BAAAAAM!* Holy! Out of nowhere, she appeared behind Maisie and delivered a fatal slash on her back! She was so fast that her tantivy almost killed Maisie but Maisie's quick as well that only her back was. .h.i.t instead of her head! Wait...

"..." Maisie once again disappeared! My eyes can't keep up with what's going on! Both of them are seriously injured and with good last hit, both of them will be in a bad situation.

"..!" Out of nowhere, she appeared really far from the battlefield! She's trying to catch a break from the last hit she took!

*CLANG!* Wait? How did Aurora manage to reach her after she teleported away?! Maisie blocked Aurora's attack in front and Aurora is trying her best to land a killing blow as soon as possible but Maisie's vitality is also great that it's hard to kill her!

"CHRONOS' BLADE OF TIME!"

*SWOOOOOOs.h.!.+* Out of nowhere, the side of Maisie's neck started bleeding pretty bad! It wasn't fatal but it was almost a killing blow! Aurora didn't even move her sword but she was able to land a hit against Maise. Maisie dodged it with her will to survive! With a wrong move or not paying attention, she could have died from that last move of Aurora! Their battle was so intense that I can't see what's happening but I can tell that they are all doing their best to land a single deadly blow!

I really thought that Aurora was in a bad situation but with just a level up of monster form, it turned the table around. The power-up of every form of monster soul amazes everyone and every form has it's own specialty so it's really hard to fight with someone who mastered his or her monster soul that he knows when to use it at the right moment.

Both Maisie and Aurora are just standing trying to read each other's next move, Maisie's holding her neck which is bleeding and Aurora, like a wolf waiting for the right moment to strike. Watching them is like watching two vicious beasts preparing to bite each other to death. Aurora has the advantage now that Maisie is injured but she won't attack. Is it that she won't attack or she can't attack carelessly?

"CHRONOS' BLADE OF TIME!" Aurora used her instant move again!

*SWOOOOOs.h.!.+* Nothing happened but I only heard a sound of slas.h.!.+ I can't really tell what's going on but it looks like Maisie figured out how to stop her attack!

"I can't believe my attack didn't work. You're the first one who evaded my blade of time but you will also be the last. CHRONO'S BLADE OF TIME DANCE!" Aurora used the same move but I can't tell what's the difference.

"..." Maisie didn't move but just stood right there. It's like she knows how to stop Aurora's attack.

*CLANG CLANG!* A couple of blade clas.h.i.+ng sounds echoed throughout the whole area! Maisie's sword sparked for like a second in different parts of her sword but that's just it, it's like nothing happened!

"What?! How did you stop my attack? My attacks are way too fast with the help of time but you still blocked it." Aurora's really surprised at what happened. It's like the strongest player of New Life Online's attack was easily stopped by Maisie. I can say that with her monster soul's ability, Aurora's attack was being fast forwarded but I think, Maisie didn't really stop the attack but she only knows where Aurora would attack next.

Now I get it, Aurora's spell skips time to the point that she already landed the attack. The thing is, her attacks already happened that she can't change the course or flow of her attack while using that spell. A clueless defender could never stop that attack but with someone who really knows how to fight not only in the game but in real life, doing the same move twice would only make the move useless. Maisie's a real fighter, I can tell, and she knows not only to stop attacks on her blind spot but can also antic.i.p.ate every possible spot to defend. It's not that Aurora's attacks became useless but Maisie is just a formidable opponent.

"..." Maisie was able to stop Aurora's attacks but she's not in a good condition to fight anymore. She's bleeding pretty bad. Her gloves are covered with her blood and her hand holding the sword is already shaking after stopping Aurora's last moves.

Aurora, on the other hand, is also injured but not as bad as Maisie. Both of them are breathing heavily and after Aurora's last move, she decided to not just attack but to plan her next move carefully. It feels so real watching them fight like this. They're both prideful that losing is not an option.

"..." Maisie extended her hood and tied it around her neck stopping the bleeding for a bit. If she overexerts herself, then the bleeding would worsen and it would be bad for her. Now, she's holding her weapon with both of her hands while blood is dripping from the handle of her sword.

*CLANG!* Both of them rushed to one another and their swords collided with a powerful blast! Their power is not equal and Aurora's monster soul power is dominating the battle but Maisie's natural talent helps her to stand a chance against Aurora.

*CLANG CLANG!* This time, they're exchanging blows trying to land a hit that could end the fight! Every exchange of blows made a slight tremor around the area! They're not using any spells or any techniques but they're just trying to trust their instincts and win the fight fair and square. An honorable battle between the best swordswomen.

*BAAAAM! CLANG!* Maisie's leg was. .h.i.t but she didn't even budge! After receiving the attack, she tried to attack Aurora without a pause but Aurora's dominating the fight. Maisie's hands can't even hold her sword any longer but she won't just surrender and still hoping that she could still win. She did all that she could but it's not enough.

*BAAAAM! BABABAAAM!* In the end, she started to lose her concentration that she couldn't defend from Aurora's pa.s.sive which duplicates her attacks. Maisie was. .h.i.t from different parts of her body but Aurora failed to land a fatal or deadly hit. Maisie tried to defend with both her sword and armor to survive but her remaining health won't last long after taking all of that hits.

*BAAAAAAAM!* Finally, Maisie was pushed back and almost lost her balance but she was able to remain standing while still holding her sword. She's really stubborn!

"I admire your fighting spirit but it's not enough to defeat me. Chronos, let's show this girl why I'm the strongest! CHRONOS' ICOSITETRA SLAs.h.!.+" Aurora disappeared from her spot!

Wait, what?! Out of nowhere, she appeared behind Maisie who just fell to the ground! I didn't see what happened but it looks like she won! She won against the bloodthirsty Maisie! Well, she's the strongest, she even killed me from our last fight and fighting her again won't really come to my mind sooner or later.

"....." But, wait! Maisie's still alive! She's still moving and somehow... I started to feel a bit different from before!

"I will end this now!" Aurora was also surprised but she's preparing to land the killing blow above Maisie who's still lying on the ground! I really thought that Maisie was already dead but she won't give up!

Aurora somehow stopped moving and was forced to pull back! What is happening?!

Out of nowhere, I've felt a tremendous aura that is making me lose my senses... upon looking closely... Maisie's already standing up and it's like she's good as new!

This feeling... I feel like my soul is being reaped that my body tells me to get out of the area!

"Banana Girl, please leave the place or you'll die. Crimson Cowl's on its Limit Break and she will eat your soul." Zofie warned me... Limit break? What's that?!
