Chapter 61 Unexpected Reinforcement
This time, Fenrir struck the blade, stopping its movement for a second. Anubis shot the bandages at her sword.
Noelle tilted its body backward to avoid them, but the bandage\'s true target was actually her sword.
Now that both Fenrir and Anubis had gotten a hold of the sword, they slammed it down to the ground.
Still, Anubis had only used his bandages. He could still use his mouth to bite Noelle.
Sadly for him, Noelle skillfully kicked him from the side, forcing Anubis to use his paw to slap it away. He lost in terms of strength and was forced to land a bit to the side.
Because the sword was planted on the ground, both Fenrir and Anubis had another chance to attack.
Noelle had no hesitation in letting go of her sword for a second. After that, she pulled her arm and punched forward, causing a shock wave made of Ena.
"Waaf!" Fenrir barked to neutralize it while Anubis opened his jaw wide.
Noelle caught Anubis\' neck and tossed him away. However, Fenrir opened a path not only for Anubis but also for Nathan, who succeeded in enduring the pain.
He shot Noelle three times in rapid succession, but Noelle simply put her arm in the trajectory, the Ena covering her arm acting like a gauntlet.
Fenrir bit this arm, but his jaw strength was actually not enough to penetrate this Ena. It felt like there was metal circling around her arm.
Noelle\'s strength was actually enough to pick up her blade, even with Fenrir still attached to her arm.
Fenrir used his own body as a weight to push her aim down as she released the same sword strike as earlier.
Nathan jumped without Fenrir telling him about it, the sword strike passing right underneath his shoes and hitting the ground, leaving a deep slit hole.
Since her attack failed, Noelle shook Fenrir off. Because he refused to let go, she spun her body, swinging Fenrir to Anubis, who was approaching her from behind.
They both ended up crashing into each other, leaving an opportunity for Noelle to take down Nathan. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
To her surprise, the right arm that was supposed to be broken suddenly rose once again, making a shooting motion.
"!!!" Noelle was startled for a moment, but she suddenly noticed that Nathan actually played a little trick.
He actually created a bullet in his arm and exploded it. His glove withstood that small burst, but the impact still launched Nathan\'s hand up.
If she took a closer look at it, the aim was slightly above her head, meaning that he failed to measure his Ena correctly.
\'If I have no experience in a battle, I would probably panic for a second and change my decision. Unfortunately for you, Junior, I have seen through your trick.\'
Noelle continued moving as Nathan released that shot.
As she expected, the shot missed her head by a small margin. Even Nathan looked frustrated because he missed that shot.
Noelle reached Nathan and swung her blade. Nathan actually used the falling motion of his hand to attack Noelle for one last time. He used the Deadly Claw on that hand so that Noelle had no choice but to stop.
Sadly for him, the Deadly Claw shattered into pieces as it hit Noelle\'s blade. At the very least, Nathan managed to stop her from swinging that sword, albeit it wouldn\'t change the outcome.
Noelle kicked Nathan. He received it with his left hand, but it just dislocated two of his fingers and blew him away.
"Gah!" Nathan coughed up blood as his back hit a tree.
He dropped on his butt while groaning in pain. "Kh…"
Fenrir and Anubis were trying to catch up, but they were too late.
Noelle had reached Nathan first and placed her sword on his neck. "It seems this is the end of our battle, Junior."
Nathan smirked. "Before that, can I ask you something?"
Noelle thought even if Nathan tried to buy time, there was nothing he could do. Even the two beasts couldn\'t actually move because this was the end.
Hence, Noelle nodded her head. "What is it?"
"You should have held back quite a lot, right? Even though you are using all your techniques, the amount of Ena and physical strength you exert don\'t truly reflect your current situation, right? How much stronger are you in your full strength?"
"Ten times, perhaps."
"Without your familiars?"
"Yeah."
Nathan couldn\'t help but smile. "I see."
"You\'re strong, Junior. I\'m sure that you will get stronger from now on. However, you are too full of yourself. Experience this setback so that you understand the meaning of losing… It\'s much better than losing against a real alien."
"Lose?" Nathan chuckled.
"What\'s funny?"
Nathan smirked, still filled with confidence. "Nah, I\'d win."
Noelle\'s eyebrows twitched. Nathan\'s confidence, despite the clear result, was indeed disappointing. Noelle waved her sword down while saying, "It seems that I have misjudged you, Junior. It\'s a bit disappointing, but this is farewell."
"!!!" Suddenly, Noelle\'s instinct picked up a presence on the right side. She stopped her swing and placed the sword next to her.
The wave of Ena that struck her sword somehow exploded upon impact.
Bam!
Even Nathan could feel the shock wave produced by that burst of Ena. Moreover, that attack actually pushed Noelle back. Even though she wasn\'t prepared for that attack, Noelle was still much stronger than any freshmen.
Nathan and Noelle turned their heads to see who actually produced such an attack.
Nathan\'s heart sank when he saw Selena walking with a dark expression, her eyes emitting bloodlust as though she was determined to kill Noelle.
