The monster shook the entire facility with each attack it landed on Micheal. He lay on the floor, his blood painting the ground and the monster's limbs.
The monster rose Micheal and, with its giant four fingered hand. It rose its other hand to deal with one last punch to end the boy. Micheal clawed at the monster's hand, trying to break free from its grasp. But the monster's strength was superior to his.
The monster's eyes widened in fury of Micheal's action. It smashed the boy to the ground several times before raising him and its fist to the sky.
Micheal had completely lost all control and stamina his body was once had. He watched helplessly at the monster's fist.
"Let go of him!!" Anna cried out with tears in her eyes as she threw a pebble at the monster to try and protect her brother.
The monster looked at Anna, with a ferocious growl. But to all the students' astonishment, the monster instantly let go of Micheal. Anna herself and Amanda were also taken by suprise.
But the monster did not stop. It rose its hand to protect its head and instantly a powerful shock made impact with the monster, destroying it partially.
The students looked behind them and saw a blond varied figure floating in the sky, his hand stretched out.
"Hanging in there?" Lucas asked as he lowered himself to the ground.
He landed near the bloody Micheal with a calm expression.
He bit his finger and let a drop of blood fall on to Micheal's wounds.
"Unique skill: Burning Blood," Lucas muttered.
Instantly, Micheal's body went up in Scarlet flames. The boy cried out in pain before Lucas waved his hand.
The pain disappeared, and Micheal's wounds began mending.
While Lucas was still looking at Micheal, a loud roar shook the entire facility and grabbed the attention of many.
The monster stood up from the dust, its body still damaged from Lucas' previous Qi release.
Lucas turned to look at the monster. He took a step towards it, and the monster took a step back.
This continued, with each step Lucas took the monster shuddered backwards.
"Oh?" Lucas spoke. "Are you scared?" Lucas asked, unsure of the monster's behaviour.
The monster stood there, not moving, making Lucas quickly dismiss the idea of a monster feeling scared.
He rose his hand and said.
"100% Qi Release!!" An even more powerful shockwave than before released. With the impact, the monster crumbled away at the sheer force of the attack.
'This kid...' Annerson, who had been present, began talking to himself. 'Is he actually a monster?'
