Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 1618

1618 Two Moves for One [Bonus]

[Bonus thanks to Lost]

Leia felt her head turning before the spike of pain ran through her. Her body wasn't sent flying, and it could even be said that the strike was weak-much weaker than the attacks Nosphaleen had managed to land on her-and yet... It somehow stung just as much.

Her staff swung out, yet Sylas was already gone, a heel driving into the back of her knee. Her leg buckled, and her weight almost collapsed beneath her.

She managed to recover in time, slamming the butt of her staff into the ground and using it like a third leverage point. She leaned onto it and kicked back with all the force she could muster.

BANG.

The air exploded, but the game of cat and mouse replayed itself. She missed entirely, streaks of exploded wind rippling through the air and yet not touching the slightest hint of Sylas.

Another fist landed on Leia's face, a knee to her gut, a foot that planted right on the center of her back.

She roared out in fury, the mane of her Emperor Lion Armor rippling as though solar flares of the sun itself.

Chi.

[Leia Analei (???)]

[Level: ???]

[Physical: 433,387 (Adjusted)][Mental: 522,777 (Adjusted)][Will: 510,799 (Adjusted)]

Leia reacted as though a sledgehammer had suddenly split her skull in two. The Will was so invasive that it was like someone had slipped their fingers into her skull and palmed her brain with both hands at once.

Her body shook, and she spun around toward Sylas' direction, her eyes returning to normal as though she had been snapped out of a concussive state.

For the first time, she could see Sylas clearly. Truly see him.

To her shock, not only had her stats just been read, but she could feel Sylas' presence far more clearly when she wasn't using the Analei's Pupils.

What ability was Sylas using that his ability to feel reality superseded her own? That was impossible!

Her expression became serious, but she also realized one very important thing.

So long as she didn't use her special eyes, Sylas wouldn't be able to trick her senses nearly as easily, and though his Will was powerful, his other stats were far from on par.

She stomped a foot and surged forward.

This time, however, Sylas didn't make a move to evade. His ability to see and react in a battle was far beyond anything that Leia had seen from any other F-tier. The moment he felt her dismiss her eyes, his tactics changed.

His eyes unleashed a wave of pressure, the world twisting around him.

Leia's fist was already before his face when her Emperor Lion Armor suddenly collapsed.
