Chapter 56

'Am I really going to give up?' Percy asked himself. 'Just let him kill me? Just like that? Do I want to die?...No. NoI want to live. I want to live so that I can see the moon again one last time. Just one last time.'

Percy then opened his eyes and saw the Knight's blade come down slowly. Percy moved pushing himself upwards closer to the blade.

'I want to live.'

He then drew back his right hand and lifted his left.

'I want to see the moon one more time.'

His gauntlet hit the Knight's blade and sparks flew as Percy held it up.

'And I want to save my mom.'

Percy felt something in himself ster as energy flew into him from the very Earth itself.

'And I will stop at nothing to do so!'

Percy then gathered all the energy he felt into his right fist and launched it into the Knight's stomach, "and you want stop me!"

The second the fist collided with Knight's armour a sound broke out, 'crack.' It was the sound of Percy's bone breaking mixed with the sound of Knight's armour breaking. Suddenly the monster was thrown backwards and flew across the field into Ares cabin. He flew threw the walls of Ares cabin and the into a tree.

Percy stood panting as his right arm went limp and fell to his side. Percy looked at his fist, 'where did that come from?'

Ping!

Percy dismissed the box and slowly he realised what happened. That energy he felt come from the Earth, it was the power to from Earthquakes. He must have unknowingly infused that power in his fist and when he punched the Knight with it, caused an Earthquake inside the Knight's body.

Percy looked at the Knight's HP;

HP:5,733/30,000

And then his HP and MP;

HP:50/550

MP:225/425

Percy frowned, he then equipped his title Deadman;

· Deadman- gives the user a boost of +40 in all stats if their HP is less than 20%.

Which made his stats this;

STR-7(+40)=47

VIT-20(+4+40)=64

DEX-17(+4+40)=63

INT-23(+40)=63

WIS-22(+40)=62

LUC-19(+40)=59

Percy then turned looked at Knight who just managed to get up but was still holding his chest which was now completely shattered. Percy smiled at this he then pulled up the Knight's status;

Knight of the Damned,

Lv-50

HP:5,733/30,000

MP:40/40

Str-57

Vit-48

Dex-60

Int-18

Wis-18

Luc-2

Thanks to the Deadman title he was now faster that the Knight. Percy pulled out Riptide and charged the monster. The pain slowly started to fade to the back of his mind as the only thing right now that mattered was the battle.

He struck the knight on his collarbone first before the Knight could even move to block him. This boost of speed was incredible. Percy promised himself that one day he would obtain this level of speed on his own.

The two then began their battle once again, this time on equal footing. Percy swung at the monster's side but was blocked at the last second. He then jumped over the Knight and back kicked the monster onto the ground.

Percy then pulled out Necklace of the Damned out of his inventory;

Necklace of the damned,

A necklace that gives it's user +2000 HP but if the wearer takes it off they get cursed with -5000HP for an equal amount of time they wore it.

Just as the Knight was getting up again Percy used his back as a ramp and climbed up and dropped the necklace around the thing's neck. But since it didn't have an actual head the necklace fell in and Percy heard it ring as it hit the Knight's stomach.

Percy looked at the Knight's HP;

HP: 7,733/30,000

Now I know what you're wondering why did you give him something that would increase his HP Percy? As the smart ones among you would have probably guessed by now why I did it.

The Knight reached into himself and tried to pull the necklace out fearing it was a bomb or something, seeing his chance Percy moved. He saw one of his swords, from when he skewered Knight with before, lying in front of him. He grabbed it and shouted, "Starburst Wave!"

The blade's moved like water through a stream. Percy struck the Knight's back with multiple quick and deadly strikes. Eventually the Knight managed to turn around and block one of Percy strikes only for Percy to immediately spin around his defence and use both swords to cut one of the Knight's arms off.

Percy then pushed himself forward as he brought Riptide up for one last strike. Percy then dashed forward and tore through the Knight's already damaged chest piece. Percy then turned around as his mind calculated all the damage he did;

Starburst Wave: 12 Strikes X 64 Vit = 768 + 63 Dex= 831

831% of 325 = 2700 Attack!

Including the 50% bonus from Sword Mastery =2700 + 1350 = 4050 Attack!
