Chapter 63: Chapter 63 - Rematch! Zion vs Carl#4

"Who the fuck is Blair Larson?!" She tried deflecting.

"Nah, I’m not falling for that shit." Zion laughed

She cursed, staring at Flint who was still being held by her, "Dammit Flint!"

"I-I’m sorry! Please forgive me!" He begged

"I’ll deal with you later, so go back to the house. Carl, we have to kill him before he can learn anything else.

"Just what I wanted to hear!"

’For now, I’ll deal with these clowns. After that, I need to find out where the labs are since Flint never finished telling me.’ Zion thought to himself as he prepared to fight.

[Running three scenarios where Flint Larson finished his sentence.

"Okay, Okay! There is a lab that has been active under my watch."

"Okay, Okay! There is a lab that has been active under my Wife"

"Okay, Okay! There is a lab that has been active under my house."

Based on current information, it is likely that scenario two is what he was going to say.]

’Nice work, Tessa!’

"Hahaha! Time to die, little man." Since Carl had felt how strong Zion’s armor was, he didn’t hold back when punching him again, using all his strength. But instead of causing damage, his fist was caught and crushed under Zion’s strength

"Arghhhhh!" Carl bellowed in pain, slightly backing away.

"This isn’t going to go like last time."

[Host, now would be a good time to use the suit’s functions instead of mana.]

"I was thinking the same thing!" Rocket boots ignited under his feet, propelling him toward Carl at high speeds. On his right hand, the nano-particles shifted, climbing onto each other until a massive hand was formed.

"What the-" The massive fist connected with Carl’s body, knocking him away. He could feel every bone in his body scream in pain as he hadn’t been hit that hard ever since he became a demonic human.

"Where are you going?!" Zion whipped his arm forward, the nano-particles morphing into a long, massive tentacle that grabbed Carl and pulled him back toward Zion. "I’m not finished with you yet!"

The palm of his suit opened, revealing a circular lens. Once Carl was in range, Zion aimed his hand at him, and a massive beam of photon energy blasted away at Carl, the attack cutting through the land.

"ARGHHHHHH!!!"

Zion smiled, relishing in this new feeling. He loved it and wanted more. His rocket boots hummed once more, signaling his intent to rush back at Carl, but he was stopped when a massive jagged black crystal stuck him in the back, being blocked by a holographic shield that formed around his body.

"Oh, don’t worry! I haven’t forgotten about you yet!" He aimed his arm at Blair, and around his wrist, 6 holes opened, firing missiles at her.

"Ha! And what do you think these puny arrows will do?!" She laughed, slicing all six missiles.

If Zion could see behind the veil that obscured Blair’s face, he would have seen that her face went from arrogance to confusion, to shock in the span of a second as she saw the missiles explode directly in her face.

"Hahaha! Idiot!" He opened his palm again, firing a pulsar blast at her.

"Bastard!" She blocked the beam with a shield made of demonic energy, but it started cracking. ’How! Magic shouldn’t be able to break this barrier! Just how strong is this guy?!’

"Better pay attention!" One right hook shook Blair’s brain, and before she could recover, a left hook disoriented her even more as she felt that strong, solid metal against her face.

Zion grabbed the back of her head, and on his calf, the nano-particles formed another booster rocket, and together, he delivered the fastest knee-to-face combo one had ever seen.

"Ughhhhhh!"

Grabbing her by the throat, Zion held her up to his face. "Where is the lab you’re keeping the people you kidnapped?!" He demanded

"You think I’ll tell you?"

"Yes." He prepared to fire a pulsar blast once more when a black rope wrapped around his arm.

"Nice one, Carl!" Blair said as she readied her spell.

"Bad one, Carl!" A missile materialized on Zion’s shoulder, firing it at the man.

Although he was hurt, he did manage to block it, however, he was shocked that the ’arrow’ caused that much damage to him.

A vortex of demonic energy warped around Zion and Blair, increasing the gravity of the area. And as if it were a ticking time bomb, the vortex exploded, knocking Zion into the air. "Eat that you fucker!"

[Stabilizing host.] Metallic wing flaps opened, stopping Zion from flying any further.

"That was disgusting, 0/10. Here, try this instead!" Just like on his palms, a circular lens materialized on his chest, but bigger and better. The humming noise it gave off screeched in the air, light particles being sucked into the contraption. And finally, after a bit of charge-up, a massive beam of light blasted from his chest, raining down on Blair like divine punishment.

The damage was devastating. Blair was bleeding, holding her arm, but what shocked Zion the most was that Carl took the brunt of the attack, his body completely singed and barely being kept alive by the demonic energy.

"Y-You truly are worthy of knowing my name." He coughed before falling onto the ground unconscious.

"Fuck! I didn’t want to go all out since the royal knights are here, but I don’t care anymore!" A massive wave of demonic energy burst from her body. A phantom tail, wings, and horns materialized onto her body as if she were an actual demon.

’She was hiding her true strength. Supreme stag,e huh? Well, this isn’t going to be easy, but that makes it more fun.’

[Suggesting that the host attacks the house]

’Why?’

[If the house is where the lab is, she would want to protect it. This is only possible if scenario 3 is correct.]

’Ahh, but you’re telling me to just act as if all three are true. Good stuff.’

[Thank you, host]

"Now you slimy bastard, you die!"

"Yeah, yeah, cool. Watch this." He fired a missile at the house.

"What are you doing!?" Blair jumped in the way, slapping the missile away from the house, and it exploded in the air.

"Ouu, that’s interesting. How about a little more?" He fired three more missiles, and just like last time, she deflected them all.

"STOP THAT!"

"Make me bitch!"

This time, Zion’s entire suit materialized missiles, firing hundreds of them all at once.

"Noooo! [Repel]" A dark energy completely draped over her mansion, repelling the missiles, or at least the explosions the missiles gave off.

"Hmm, seems like there’s something important in there." Zion smiled maniacally.

"I’ll kill you!"

"Yup, heard that before, be original for once at least."

"Fuck, you’re so annoying! You remind me of that bastard Zion Zagan!"

"Hey! Don’t call him a bastard!" He removed his mask, revealing his handsome face. "You’re gonna make me cry."

"You-You-YOU!" She pointed at him, her hand shaking.

"Yes, I know, I’m handsome, no need to tell me."

"Why are you everywhere?!"

"I don’t know?! It’s like I’m the main character or something!" He laughed.

"I’m gonna fucking kill you!" She yelled, flying at him at unreal speeds.

"I’d like to see you try!" Zion, too, flew at her at high speeds, putting his mask back on as he heard Tessa in his ear.

[Creating artificial gravity. Altering the density of the Host’s right arm]

’Oh yeah, this clash is about to be epic!’

As their fists collided, a cataclysmic explosion erupted, unleashing a blinding light that obliterated everything in its path.
