Vile Evil Hides Under The Veil Chapter 450 Varhan P2

Chapter 450 Varhan P2

The hatchlings of the flame had made their appearance in the arena. Four fire snakes had surrounded the two orcs fighting each other. But they only targeted one of them.
Despite this, neither the beasts nor Varhan's fists could connect with their target. There would always be some distance maintained whenever they tried to close in on the guy.
'Gravitational force that is focused on repelling!'
Eren quickly figured out Borul's inherent nature. Being an earth-element ranker, he had access to all the earth-element spells. His inherent nature had given him a unique battle style. A style in which he could ignore the opponent's offence and wait for an opportunity to strike back.
In addition, the guy was able to move rapidly by generating reverse gravity force with his movement spell. He could also jump crazy high using the same spell– making him unable to be disadvantaged when it came to moving about and dodging the attacks he didn't want.
But that wasn't all. Borul could generate a magnetic field around him. With it, he could sense the incoming attacks even from his blind spots. Targeting him while his attention is divided was difficult, but not impossible. But making those blows count was the true test for Varhan.
Sedated Perception!
Stunning Speed!
Erin AKA Varhan activated his time-element spells and observed the guy. To his surprise, the guy could keep up with his enhanced perception thanks to his magnetic field paired up with his mana sense.
Plus, Borul could perform quick movements by using the magnetic field and their attraction and repelling force to its fullest. His only drawback against Eren was his normal vision which could not process the visual information as fast as his other extra senses.
Eren observed the guy closely while he traded blows with him. The punching dagger arts that he had learned from Marla had their uses when it came to throwing punches too. It was just that Eren had to adjust his position and keep himself closer to his opponent than he had to had he been using katars.
*******************
"Ulag, where did you say you found Varhan?"
Sharog was stunned by Varhan's performance. Although Borul was not at a disadvantage against the guy in any way, the way Varhan fought with him was quite shocking. These were no amateur moves.
Ulag repeated the events of a few hours ago before returning to his position. He too was amazed by Varhan's performance. He wondered if he could benefit in some way from giving the tribe another worthy hunter.
Sharog saw as Borul dodged, blocked, and redirected all the attacks Varhan threw at him. And yet, Borul also didn't seem to have a real advantage over Varhan either. The high-speed battle and lack of ability to use mana sense made it difficult for the audience to keep the condition of the participants in check.
Everybody had come to realise that Borul was just playing with Nurbag from the beginning. Nurbag would have been beaten to a pulp if he was in Varhan's place.
The crowd started cheering for both. It was divided into two groups. One that supported Varhan whose name had to be announced to the public as they had kept on asking Ulag about it. The other group had become his ardent followers.
'One.'
Swish! Swish!
Block! Block!
'Two!'
Bock! Block!
Swish!
'Three!'
Eren was keeping track of how many times within a span of a few seconds Borul had to dodge his attacks instead of blocking them using his repelling force. Of course, the guy was also doing his darndest to throw Varhan's maths off by constantly changing the number of dodges or blocks he would be doing.
Every once in a while, Borul would throw a punch at Varhan that was coated with an earth element mana that generated a strong repelling force. By now Varhan was out with all the go-to cards he had in his sleeves. Thus, he defended himself with his defensive spell.
Yet the cloak of lightning couldn't block the invisible force. This forced Eren to get thrown about like he had been hit by a huge bison all of a sudden. Eren would get back in the game quickly afterwards. But his attacks couldn't touch the guy.
After fighting with Borul for a while and observing his every move with his enhanced perception, Varhan finally figured out what he needed to do to make his attacks count on the guy.
Varhan needed to be a bit faster than he was at the time of attacking. Plus, he needed two more fire snakes for Borul to feel overwhelmed.
Eren had observed that Borul would choose to dodge the attacks using his exceptional movement spell instead of blocking them using his equally exceptional blocking spell. All his efforts in keeping track of the guy's habits had helped Varhan come up with his plan.
Now it was time for execution.
Sharog saw as Varhan summoned two new fire snakes. He also increased his speed by sending his mana circuits into hyperdrive. Only Eren's afterimages could be seen across the battle ring.
Yet, this didn't discourage Borul from entering the teaching mode with Varhan once again. When they both got away from each other and created a safe distance, the original orc started talking.
"Varhan, you are a great addition to our tribe. So I'll say a few things which you might or might not be aware of. Your triple element spell casting complements your battle style. But you are focusing on speed. There's no timing or accuracy in your attacks."
'This cocky bastard just won't shut up.'
Eren thought and attacked. With even more ferocity than before.
He successfully blocked and dodged all of Eren's attacks on multiple fronts while directing some of them on Eren himself before saying something once again.
"With exceptional accuracy and timing that can be honed, even an ordinary ranker would be able to counter your moves. I'll show you."
Borul stopped using his offensive and defensive spells and dodged the fire snakes' attacks. He let the butcher get into his striking range and displayed extreme mastery over his hand movements. He let Eren's punch travel towards his face before flashing a smile.
Just when Eren thought the punch was going to hit Borul, the latter used the combination of his spells to redirect the attack on him. The speed, timing, and accuracy with which Borul did that were flawless.
That's why even if Eren could see the attack with his enhanced vision, he couldn't do anything about it.
