Xavier's eyes widened, before his eyes were two daggers approaching simultaneously.
[Retract]
*SWOOSH!*
Xavier's figure reverted back to the position he was in before kicking off of the ogre's chest, the position where he had his body bent backwards. The moment he looked towards the ogre, he shivered.
*SLASH!*
Xavier's arm was sent flying through the air as the smiling ogre passed right by him, rotating his body mid-air as he did so.
Xavier quickly bent his body forward, ignoring the pain in his arm and watching with bloodshot red eye as the Ogre collided against more threads.
Contrary to what happened to Xavier, the threads didn't bind or entrap the smiling ogre. Instead, they stretched out along with his figure, pulling his feet backwards before launching him towards Xavier like a slingshot
The moment he was launched, a big hole opened up through his feet and shoe, before forcing out a rapid stream of gas, hence propelling him even faster-
[Jet Manipulation: Burst.]
*VOOM!*
*SLASH!*
The side of Xavier's neck was slashed, as the ogre blew past him once more. Blood spurted across the air, as Xavier's left severed arm slammed into the ground before him.
He drew the right sword, instantly having his knuckles pierced and punctured by spikes as they extended out of the sword's cross guard.
Xavier was constantly on the move while the sword drew his blood, stepping left and right as the smiling ogre burst at him repeatedly.
[You have been given power in exchange for blood.]
Despite that, the number of cuts on Xavier's body were consistently increasing. And Xavier who's room for movement was limited had nothing he could do if not try and hold out.
With every passing second the ogre's speed was getting out of control. His figure was blurring to the point Xavier could barely see his face.
*Step!*
In that moment, when Xavier stepped out of the way to avoid the swing.
*BAM!*
His eyes widened as a leg dug into his ribcage, breaking every bone it made contact with as all the momentum gathered was transferred into that kick alone.
[Jet Manipulation: Burst Kick!]
Blood gushed out of Xavier's mouth, his eyes bulged out before he was blasted away, bursting through the air, he soared into a thread which stretched super far out, before being launched back at the smiling ogre.
With trembling arms, Xavier was barely able to position his sword over his head to parry the smiling ogre's daggers if he swung them.
But contrary to Xavier's expectations-
*BAM!!!*
Not a single dagger was swung at him, instead a rising kick ended up crashing right into his chest after smiling ogre stepped to the side.
[Jet Manipulation: Burst Kick!]
*COUGH!* *VWOOM!*
Xavier hurled out blood, before getting launched right up at the ceiling at inconceivable speeds.
*CRASH!* *SHATTER!*
He shattered right through the glass ceiling, before continuously ascending upwards.
[Jet Manipulation: Jet Burst!]
Gas burst out from the hole in the smiling Ogre's feet propelling him up towards Xavier at even faster speeds.
"Ogre, wait!!" The luminous orange haired Vampire called out to stop him.
Unfortunately, by then the Ogre had already left the building in his journey towards Xavier.
*BOOM!* *BOOM!* *BOOM!*
Every Few seconds even more gas would burst out from the Smiling Ogre's feet holes, quickly closing the distance between them.
By the time Xavier had started to descend, the smiling ogre was already right behind him.
*Grab!*
Xavier's descent was stopped by the ogre who grabbed his leg and began to spin him around mid-air.
[Jet Burst] [Jet Burst] [Jet Burst]
Gas continuously burst out of the holes in his leg, increasing the rotation speed repeatedly. From another's perspective it looked like a helicopters rotary wings spinning around in the air on it's own.
The Ogre had gathered so much rotation that Xavier could feel the muscles in his leg tearing.
[Jet Manipulation: Jet OverBurst!!!]
A hole suddenly appeared behind the ogre's arm, propelling Xavier even further as he loosened his grip.
The instant he let go-
*VA-BOOM!!!*
A sonic boom erupted and Xavier's figure blurred, plummeting towards the ground at a speed faster than even the Vampires could see.
*CRASHHH!!!!!!*
A quarter of a second, that's how long it took for Xavier's body to collide with the ground.
Xavier's body dug into the ground, creating a crater as a strong shockwave was sent across the store. With his hand positioned behind his head, Xavier's figure was motionless right at the centre.
All of his bones, was broken, he'd stopped breathing and not a sound could be heard coming out of him.
A dust of smoke created obscured the luminous orange haired Vampire's view, preventing her from seeing his condition.
The ogre slowly plummeted towards the ground, while keeping an eye out from the view above.
Meanwhile the luminous orange haired Vampire approached the cloud of smoke with her threads ready to defend in case of any sudden attacks.
After a step however, she heard something.
*Throb* *Throb* *Throb*
Xavier's heart, it was still beating and loudly too.
'It's strange, he could have avoided this completely... Why he didn't use his ability to teleport to a previous position to escape the Ogre's helicopter attack...?'
*Throb* *Throb* *Throb*
The Smiling Ogre slowly descended through the hole in the ceiling with the shattered glass, and in that instant, her eyes widened.
"Get out of there!!! Ogre!!!" She yelled.
[Rewind Level 2: Retract.]
Suddenly, a sonic boom echoed throughout the air, above the ogre. By the time he'd moved to get out of the way, it was already too late-
*SLASH!*
The Smiling Ogre's eyes widened beneath his mask as in that that instant, Xavier's blurred figure with a sword swing in motion flashed right past him.
*CRASH!*
Xavier's figure crashed into the ground, meanwhile confusion spread across the ogre's face as the world began to spin around. He'd lost all sensation across his body.
'Huh...? What just happened? Don't tell me I...'
'I was cut...?'
That was the ogre's final thought before life left his eyes.
*CRASH!*
The Ogre's head plummeted into the ground crashing right in the centre of the crater beside Xavier.
