Unlimited Power 03: The Sinful Ruler

The big orc got surprised, if that wasn\'t suicide, he didn\'t know what it was… Still, he didn\'t stop his plans and swung down his sword. Or so he tried… Jake used Rising Dragon and then hit the chin of the monster raising him upward for five meters. Since Jake aimed at the tip of the chin, the attack hadn\'t been perfect, but it did the job and Jake also passed above the enemy to recover his sword. That was something that the enemy didn\'t expect... meanwhile, Jake considered all those factors to have his chance.

When the beast recovered from the strike, it could see Jake grabbing his weapon and already falling. While he wouldn\'t have much impulse since he was in the air, Jake enveloped his sword with dark flames. This time the amount made the entire weapon aside from the hilt disappear, the speed that the flames were moving also made the orc aware of the danger… If the creature isn\'t careful enough, i\'s own sword will break and its head will be the next target.

Jake frowned when he felt that the weapon suddenly got more powerful… Like it had been enhanced with mana. He had predicted that the monster would use something to protect its weapon, but not that… Nevertheless, the beast fell for Jake\'s trap. He indeed swung down his sword with all his might… But not toward the enemy\'s head…

The orc almost lost the ability to think when he saw Jake\'s blade falling in a diagonal angle… He didn\'t attack to kill the monster… He aimed at the orc\'s arm to get his weapon. In the end, the boss didn\'t have the chance to react and the sword strike added with the power of the dark flames reached the wrist of the monster and cut it down almost instantly.

Due to the shock, the orc stopped moving for a moment and Jake grabbed the sword before it could fall. Still, the beast finally reacted and kicked Jake with all his might in the stomach. Jake felt his organs suffering damage before he was sent flying to the walls. Jake almost lost consciousness when his back hit the wall and his health dropped to ten percent…

Jake landed on the ground and then fell to his knees while holding both weapons. Fortunately, the boss suffered enough damage to make it flinch due to the pain…

"Such a fucking resilience…" Jake thought.

It would be nice to defeat the enemy with its own weapon, but Jake preferred his sword. So, he stored that one and grabbed some potions as well.

Before Jake could even recover half of his health, the orc charged at him. That seemed a bit reckless, but it was also the best option the monster had… Letting Jake heal would only make things more complicated. In any case, Jake assumed his battle stance, but he had a hard time raising his sword since so many of his bones and muscles had been repaired. Without any other choice, Jake activated Concentrated strike and forced himself to attack when the enemy got close. The dark flames didn\'t even appear this time since he put too much strain on the previous attack.

Thanks to that, the orc managed to punch the weapon away with its remaining hands. Before the orc could kick Jake again, he got hit in the chin… Again. Jake used Rising Dragon… He knew that his strike would be easily repelled. Still, that hurt quite a bit… even the bones of his fists suffered some damage. While his attack activated Lesser Vampirism, it only helped Jake a bit.

In any case, Jake had enough time to recover his stance, and this time he managed to put his sword in front of him. Putting all those points into recovery was finally paying off…

In any case, while it seemed a bit cowardly and that wasn\'t his style, Jake decided to use some hit and run tactics. When the monster charged at him, he used Flash and hit his right side, the side that had lost his hand… The hit made Jake recover some health, so he used that tactic to recover a bit more. Eventually, the boss was exhausted due to the pain, and because it had been running around for a while. In the meantime, Jake recovered enough to fight without letting the pain bother him. He could even use dark flames as well. So, the fight was pretty much over.

"I guess now our positions changed completely… My goal was to do this from the beginning, but not like this," Jake said "Maybe that is why I don\'t feel so satisfied…"

The orc didn\'t say anything. Not like words would change a thing… Nevertheless, Jake charged toward the enemy and when he tried to block the strike with his arms, Jake used Full Swing. Again and again, the damage began to pile up and the defense of the orc began to fall. After the twentieth time, the monster finally lost both forearms and was unable to defend itself… In the end, the orc tried to headbutt Jake, but he was beheaded with a single strike of Jake\'s sword enhanced by the dark flames.

Before long, Jake was teleported back to his base, but he was feeling like crap like never before. It seemed that each mission was taking a bigger toll on him. Despite that, he ignored his instincts and alerts every single time before the battles… it was almost masochistic.
