Chapter 50: Litt
He bent his knee slightly, the ground under his feet broke and took a web shape and he was sent forward with an astonishing speed.
As he ran, a huge snake dropped from one of the trees to deliver a surprise attack on him.
'First point' thought Litt as he changed his footwork and direction with precise agility and separated the head from the body of the snake before it knew what even happened.
Litt didn't even slow his speed as he killed and took it's corpse, he stepped on one of the tree trunk and moved like an assassin.
He moved from trunk to branch to the crown of the tree with beautiful finesse and no wasted movements at all.
As he moved, he suddenly smiled then dropped down from the tree without hesitation
As soon as he dropped, multiple wind slashes ripped apart his former position, bring down the trees and destroying the environment.
Litt looked up and saw a gigantic bird, the bird looked at Anthony with fire in it's eyes.
As they both locked eyes, the bird screeched with a very high pitch, sending a sound wave attack to Litt that destroyed everything in it's path.
Litt controlled the metal element in the atmosphere as a thick dome made of metal covered him and the sound wave clashed with it, reflecting the sound waves further destroying everything.
Litt removed the dome and made his own move at neck breaking speed, as he appeared on the crown of a tree and thrust himself forward, towards the bird flying in the air and stabbed at the huge bird with great force.
The bird simply flew out the way of the attack without an issue as the sky was it's domain.
As it was certain that Litt didn't have any foothold since he was now hanging on the air, the bird attacked again by sending a single but bigger wind slash this time around.
Litt smirked as he knew what this monster was thinking.
Mana and metal element in the environment moved and a solid black footprint his size appear under his feet holding him up and balancing him.
He swung his spear and cut the wind slash in two halves.
Litt took a step, as soon as he took a step, the foothold under his first foot disappeared and appeared in the next position the foot landed and the same happend with the next step and just like that Litt ran on the air with his foothold constantly appearing in perfect timing.
Litt arrived in front of the beast and thrust his spear like a seasoned warrior.
The beast was surprised that Litt could move and was caught off guard, but it still has a card
It enclosed itself with it's wings and the spear collided against it.
**Clangggg**
Litt squinted his eyes, he thought the bird had normal feathers and planned to end this fight with this attack, but the bird has metallic wings, how ironic is that, two people with metallic attributes fighting.
The beast was pushed backwards on impact, even though it blocked as it couldn't absorb the impact.
Immediately it was pushed back, it opened it wings again and flapped it's wing forward.
It sent out a thousand metallic feathers in Litt's way and different directions, so that he couldn't dodge.
Lit moved with maddening agility and speed as he moved in different directions blocking and parrying the metallic feathers.
He was creating footholds in his destination before he even appeared there, while countering the attacks coming from different directions, this might sound simple but to many, it required a lot practices and work.
The fluid movement between his spear and his hands and the way he connected it all to his feet movements were just too good.
If other students were watching, they won't believe he is a first year like them, because even students of higher years couldn't perform such task as it was required you to split your thought as you coordinate between controlling your element to form a foothold, moving in sync with the foothold you just created, while also attacking.
Litt didn't need to slipt anything, he could do this with his thought compartment skill, but he didn't need the skill to perform such spectacular art like he is doing now.
Such was his battle and spear talent, such was his physique, The Spear God Physique.
As he fought with the bird and dodged and parried, he became more attuned for battle and was improving at fast rate as he had never actually battled after training for almost a decade, only from the usual casual spars with his mates.
**Boom**Boom****clang**clang**
The battle raged on as clouds pathed as they moved in the skies only leaving streaks of light off without any blurrs.
The beast roared again as it saw it wasn't getting any upper hand in the battle and wanted to escape.
"Dream on birdie"
Litt increased his speed even more than before and appeared behind the beast, stunning the beast as it thought they were equals in speed and it only lacked a little in strength.
Litt set up a dome as soon as he was behind it and covered both of them in it so it won't escape again, also covering them from prying eyes.
Immediately they were covered, Litt didn't hold back anymore as the Academy won't see what he did in the dome, he casually made a sweep with his spear, perfectly cleaving off the Bird's head.
After killing it, he waited for a while then released the dome and he appeared, while the beast corpse was already in his space ring
He waited for a while so the Academy won't get suspicious that he created the dome and the beast suddenly died immediately, so he had to delay for a while.
He could have simply ended everything since the beginning, but he needed the experience and was also putting up a show as he was meant to be holding back as instructed.
Litt came down from the skies and continued running on the ground and killed the monsters he met on the way, as they were weaker than the bird he didn't even put in effort at all and just killed them on the first attack.
After a while Litt arrived at a nest with a smile as some monsters were living here rent free.
He stepped in and heard noises that sounded like they were saying he should back off or die.
****HISSS***
"Ohhh it seems to be the family members of the snake I first killed, well time for a family reunion then"
As soon as the words were dropped, Litt went on his rampage.
