Chapter 201: Chimeras Are Lucky Race
This came out of Jim's expectations. The attack carried him all the way upward, making him lose balance inwardly and outwardly at the same time.
'Use your wings!' the old man suddenly said, 'and use the clone now!'
Jim didn't even think as he instantly executed what his old man said. The next moment he started to perform his hand seals and then a clone appeared next.
"Sorry," he didn't hesitate to put his legs over the clone, bent his knees and pushed with all his might. For those around the ground they could only see a wild tornado made entirely of fire, roaring violently and spinning fast.
"Seal him now!" the chimera kid shouted and then a strange spider-like web made out of pure fire appeared from the twenty chimeras around the tornado.
The web started to move around the tornado, surrounding and sealing it. It seemed like it was crawling fast until it reached the top, and it wasn't affected by the fire of the tornado itself.
"Seal!" the twenty chimeras shouted in unison before these webs suddenly cooled off at speed visible to naked eye.
"Sizzle!"
The cold met the heat and a vapor appeared clouding everything with only loud voices of Sizzling sound popping up from all over the tornado.
"Vanish!" the chimera kid suddenly loosened his grip and the tornado of fire vanished. When the fog cleared, everyone could see a giant spider web formed of strange material that was glistening under the light of the orbs in the sky.
And one shadow was now falling fast towards the ground.
"Hahaha, goodbye weak human," Mench laughed when he saw that while Jim's companions felt their heart hitting the ground.
"Swoosh!"
Yet in the middle of all this, a strange soft sound came as if a large feather was floating in the air. The sound was weak but many raised their heads and managed to spot a shadow descending at a slower pace towards the ground.
And he seemed to be targeting one person… that chimera kid.
"Damn! You are really resilient, aren't you?" The chimera kid seemed to react much better to what Jim presumed. He dealt with the fact of his survival fast in an impressive way.
Jim was descending fast, but not compared to his clone. His wings played a large role in decelerating his speed.
And the moment he threw himself off the tornado he aimed for one person… that leader of this third grade group.
"Chimera might!" the kid instantly raised both fists in the air while shouting in a strong tone. Jim saw what happened clearly as the ground underneath that kid cracked.
Like a heavy thing hit that part of the world, the earth around the kid showed irregular long cracks that extended like snakes all around.
And from beneath it the red color of the lava appeared with a hot gush of vapor.
Yet Jim didn't change his plans. "I'll kill you," he said in determination while holding his sword vertically in front of him.
He never tried this spell in the air, but he had no option now but to try it out. During the last attack his body managed to get in contact with a higher quality fire than what Jenny provided to him.
And so he was ready to use this spell of his, and for him it was a do or die situation.
"I hope it works," Jim started to feel the strong gravity sucking his sword downwards, yet he resisted letting it down.
At the same time the chimera kid started to get in touch with the lava coming from the heart of the ground.
"You are the one to fall here foolish human," the kid declared while other chimeras started to move fast towards here.
And Jim noticed their approach, but didn't care about them at least for now.
"Let me show you the difference between a pantheon and a normal human clan," the kid roared before his raised fists opened.
His fingers were instantly covered with small rounded red balls of energy. Jim knew from the mere sight of them how deadly they were. "If I got hit then I would die," he admitted this to himself and the kid only laughed.
"Then die!"
The kid moved his hands as if he was holding a ball and throwing it towards Jim. The latter didn't wait for even a second to see what was going to happen, as he knew standing in his place meant death.
Despite being suspended midair and descending without any control over his body, he had a way to change all that.
The moment that chimera kid roared and moved his hands, Jim suddenly let his sword fall towards the ground. He was around twenty meters off the ground, and even from such a distance the gravity pulled his body fiercely, dragging him all the way to the ground in a mere fraction of second.
"Boom!"
The moment he touched the ground he felt every inch of his body ache. Severe pain hunted his entire body yet he didn't stop for a moment or even tried to control the pain.
His sword was now in place, his energy was full, and his spell was ready.
If he missed this narrow window where his enemy was taken by surprise, then he would be doomed.
And he wouldn't have such a chance so easily from now on.
"Boom!"
The next moment of his descent, the balls of fire that kid threw exploded in a dreadful way. Each ball was like a ticking bomb, so small yet so deadly. The shockwave itself hit the ground in ten large explosions, creating a massive dust cloud.
And the explosions hit the places of Jim and that kid.
"Chimeras don't fear fire!" the kid mumbled in a deep tone while his body had some wounds from such close explosions.
"Fairies don't fear anything," yet the strong tone of Jim echoed from the depth of the dust cloud.
And the next moment another shockwave erupted where Jim appeared surrounded by a big ball of fire where he was floating inside.
