Chapter 919 Limb From Limb The arm that had been removed from Sin’s body, it was still burning as Gary held it. He could feel the intense heat, and his system was informing him of the constant HP and Energy drain it was doing to him. It was going down quicker than before, now that he was holding onto a part of Sin directly. However, there was one thing that Gary was sure about: it was the fact that Sin was an Altered, and if Gary consumed Altereds or parts of Altereds, two things would happen to him—he would get stronger, and part of his energy returned. “I have to do this!” Gary opened his mouth wide and bit through the flames. The red feathers, when touching his tongue and mouth, gave a heavy burning sensation, but underneath it all, he could still feel the flesh. He only chewed a few times before swallowing as it wasn’t something he wanted to savor. “That fool!” Sin said, looking down from above in the air, and turning his head to his own arm. “If he eats that, the entire arm will burn him from inside out; he’s as good as dead!” Sin’s eyebrows were furrowed as he looked toward his arm. Where it had been cut had been healed, but his arm wasn’t growing back; he could heal wounds as long as it was attached to his body, but he was unable to grow limbs back. Regardless if Gary was dead, he had come out of this fight the winner. Pieces of the feathers and flesh went down Gary’s throat and towards his stomach. His HP was going down faster than before; he was taking a big hit as he started to digest bits of it. [-2HP] [-2HP] [-2HP] [-2HP] The HP continued to decrease, and Gary had already consumed the entire arm. He was starting to think that maybe he had made a mistake. That for once, there was an Altered that he was unable to eat… that was until the system had granted him a message. [542/1000 HP] [113/1000 Energy] >>>> [312/1000 Energy] ‘It went up, my energy went back up… and it went far higher than I expected; this has to be because he’s some type of special Mythical Altered.’ 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢 Gary looked up at Sin who was still in the air, confident that he would have died; he could see that his arm wasn’t growing back. With this, and his energy still low, it was the only way for him to survive, his only way he could win this fight—to eat part of his enemy and use up every ounce of his energy. However, the system messages didn’t stop there. [Your Endurance is at its maximum level] [Endurance can no longer increase] [Special properties of consumed Altered have been discovered] [You have gained Fire and Heat resistance!] After seeing those messages, the heat became a little bit more bearable. He could still feel the intensity of it, but it wasn’t affecting him as much anymore, and the time it took for messages to appear about his energy being drained due to the heat were taking longer. “You’re not dead?” Sin said in shock. “Why won’t you die!” Sin flew up in the air and spun his body, a spiral of flames coming out over the sky covering the city; right then, he dived down. Performing his strongest attacks, going through the sky like a falling meteorite. Since he had flown up higher, it almost looked as if he was breaking the sound barrier. Once in a while, a pulse of flames would go through the air, and it would increase Sin’s speed even more than before. Gary, seeing this, first swung his arms several times, unleashing two claw slashes above him. He then bent his knees down and swung his arms again, swinging more claw slashes. They hit Sin straight on, but he continued to fall, only breaking some of the flames away from him. As Gary bent his knees fully, he went ahead and activated something he had been saving for a while. [Lethal Pounce, level 4] Gary’s feet blasted from the ground, crushing the ground beneath his feet. The impact to the ground was the same as if Sin was to have landed on the ground. As Gary blasted from his feet, he met Sin in the middle. The two collided for a moment, and a shockwave destroyed all of the windows in a mile radius from the power of the clash. What was sent out and was burning some of the buildings in the distance. ‘Lethal Pounce, the first level allowed me to quickly lock onto my target. The second stage allowed me to dodge before striking my enemy, and the third stage allowed me to add a number of pounces to my liking before the Lethal Pounce at the end of the strike, using up more energy than others.’ ‘However, I can use these different levels of Lethal Pounces as I like; the second level isn’t always good to use if I want to strike my enemy faster… and through the use of the rest of my pawn points upgrading lethal pounce, and the Dark night sky, Lethal Pounce is now upgraded to level 4.’ ‘It’s like Level 1, but it takes up an enormous amount of my energy, a straight ahead attack!’ [-100 Energy] [98/1000 Energy] After the clash, Gary ripped his hands through and continued forward up in the air, now floating in sight of everyone; they watched Sin floating in the air with his wings, with one more of his limbs missing. In Gary’s hands, a part of a flaming leg could be seen, and just like before, Gary opened his mouth wide and chomped down into it. “I’m going to tear you limb from limb!” Gary shouted, opening his mouth through the flames. “And each time while you're getting weaker, I’ll be getting stronger!”
