Blood Evolution System-Chapter 206: Sealing the crimson one (c)
The nine seals were something that the current Vincent shouldn't be able to control. No! He was too weak and pathetic to sense even their presence. So, him taking off a seal and unleashing one of his innate racial traits was a pipe dream.
Something must have helped him.
Was it their father?
Even though he was no longer around them, he still left behind a plan to help his beloved son!
Weren't both of them his child?
Why must he treat him like an outcast all the time?
Just what crime did he even do?
Why was he always on the receiving end of their father's ire?
The crimson one's eyes turned red and redder.
Sadness, rage, betrayal, sorrow, and unbridled anger swirled in his crimson eyes that grew bright and brighter.
"That's something you don't need to know," Vincent replied with a calm and adamant expression on his face.
Noah had temporarily unsealed the ninth seal. Of course, it was for his good, and Vincent was sure that the crimson one didn't know of Noah's existence. So, it was best not to tell him about it. Saying anything too revealing would be the same as smashing his foot with a stone. Not telling him was aggravating him, and that's something Vincent wanted to happen.
After all, a person makes many mistakes when they are angry, and he believed that he would be able to catch the crimson one off guard by angering him to the point where he would come after him directly.
"I will just pry it out of your mouth." The crimson one said with gritted teeth as he stomped his foot on the ground, immediately vanishing from Vincent's sight.
The crimson one used the same move that he had used multiple times before to catch Vincent off guard and beat the crap out of him. However, this time was different as Vincent was able to see a red arc of light flashing towards him! Yes, the crimson one wasn't teleporting or something else, but just moving at such a high speed that Vincent wasn't able to even catch a glimpse of him before. However, right now, he was able to see him approaching him in a straight line.
'I got you!'
Vincent's lips slowly curled up as he hurriedly moved his hand to the front. A red light flashed in Vincent's crimson eyes, and the crimson one's sharp knife-like nails came straight towards his guts. However, before they could reach him, a baseball-sized bullet came in between them. The very moment, the crimson one's eyes widened, and he hurried to stomp his foot on the ground as he could sense immense danger seeping out of the blue baseball. Of course, Vincent didn't give it the chance to use his agility technique again and immediately released the mana bullet.
There was like no distance between them, and the mana bullet shot out like a laser beam, smashing into the crimson one's chest.
Bomb! The mana bullet exploded after crashing on the crimson one's chest, and the impact resulted in his body shattering into pieces. The shockwaves also smashed on Vincent as he was in point-blank range, and he too was pushed back by several meters.
"Damn, that hurts like hell," Vincent said with an aggrieved expression on his face as blood trickled out of his mouth. His internal organs were shocked by the shockwaves, but he was far well off than the crimson one, who was missing his entire body!
Seeing that his sneak attack had done so much damage to the immortal monster, a smile crept up on Vincent's face. As if reacting to the happiness of its container, the healing force inside of his body got triggered. It charged up from the pit of his stomach, suffusing throughout his body and healing all the damages he just suffered.
"Is that it? Are you going to keep on hiding like a rat after putting on a show of overwhelming strength?" Vincent spat out. He was sure that the sneak attack wasn't enough to put down a mortal like the crimson one.
And he couldn't be more right.
"No," the crimson one's voice sounded out as crimson pearls rose from the bloody water surface right next to Vincent, swirling around him and twirling up to his shoulders, slowly and steadily, taking a humanoid force. First came the hands that extended towards Vincent's head, and he immediately slapped it away, causing it to scatter back into the crystal-like petals.
Though they converged back into a hand, and at the same time, the rest of the petals assembled into the shape of his identical twin of red color.
"We're just starting." The crimson said as he charged towards Vincent like an angry toddler and released a barrage of punches at him, which, of course, Vincent dodged by maneuvering his body in a complex manner, avoiding the attacks coming from left and right.
While avoiding the crimson one's attacks, Vincent studied his attack patterns and looked for an opening. The moment he found it, he launched a counterattack.
Vincent's legs lashed out, hitting the crimson one on the left side of his cheeks.
The crimson one got blasted away from him at the maximum speed of a rocket train. Vincent immediately gave chase and caught up to him in the blink of an eye, almost as if he had teleported. Without giving him the chance to make sense of the situation or escape, Vincent grabbed the crimson one's head as words that his other half never wants to hear ever again came out of his mouth mercilessly: "No, it's high time to end things."
An instant after these words left Vincent's mouth, a significant amount of suction force charged out of his palm, trying to envelop the crimson one entirely. The crimson one's fear maxed out, and he started to resist violently, doing his all to get out of his grip. He kicked him in the guts and even went as far as hitting his hand and stabbing tentacles with sharp ends into his body but failed to escape.
