Chapter 863 Xin's Transformation
Sparks from Xin’s Altered form couldn't stop flying off from her body. The strange hardened feathers constantly were shooting off small bolts of energy from one to the other. Even just standing still, her elemental power was activating.
“You think things are going to change just because your appearance is now a little different!” Gil shouted as he lifted both of his hands up, locking them together. He was in his large form, having shifted from the smaller one.
Doing so allowed him to pick up more strength than he usually would. The attack was going to be a big one. Gil’s hands smashed against the ground, and the whole building started to shake again.
The people from above fell from their seats. Shelves tumbled down from the vibration, and it looked like the building was warping from within itself. However, the shaking had eventually stopped.
With it stopping, the people on the second floor could see that they were now okay, and it was the same for Amy and White, who were close to the top floor.
“What is happening?” Amy asked.
“Most likely, the Phoenix Gang has reached this area as well,” White answered.
The two of them were looking at Maya Dem, Gary’s mother. She was wide awake but still bedridden. While in her bed, she was constantly moving her hands, clasping them, trying to get the feeling to come back to her body.
“It’s a bit dangerous where we are, should we move?” Amy asked.
“If we move down, then we’ll be closer to the fight,” White answered. “I’m not sure it’s safer there, but at the same time, if we stay up here, and the whole building collapses, then we are the most likely to get hurt.”
“Amy, I can’t have you hurt because of me, or your friend,” Maya said. “You have a full life ahead of you. If the situation becomes dire, just leave me be.”
“Stop talking crazy, after all this time you finally wake up, and you're telling me to leave!” Amy shouted back. “No, it’s not happening.”
With the state that Maya was in, the full extent of the situation wasn’t still fully explained to her. She needed time to adjust to things, which was why Amy was hating the fact that all of this was happening now, why did it have to happen now, why couldn’t her father have returned earlier?
Down below, on the first floor, Gil had slammed both of his fists into the ground, destroying the tiles on the floor and even breaking those that he hadn’t touched away from the floor with his powerful attack.
“Huh?” Gil thought, lifting his hands, as there wasn’t a certain person underneath it.
“Do you think you're the only one that can get faster!” Xin shouted from behind. She let out a fierce punch that was electrified, coming out incredibly fast. It smashed on Gil’s back and sent his heavy body crashing into the floor.
His body had bounced, but Xin wasn’t going to stop there. She kicked off the floor, and now above in the air, sparks coming off from her feet. Spinning down, she started to spin several times with her legs one after the other and came down shooting like a lightning bolt crashing right into the back of Gil’s spine.
“ARGHH!” Gil screamed in pain as his whole body lit up. He swung his hand desperately trying to hit Xin, but it hadn’t hit anything but the empty air.
Quickly, Gil had rolled up onto his feet and his body was shrinking in size. He wasn’t badly hurt from the attacks, but unlike before, these attacks were certainly hurting him. If he wanted to do something, then he needed to use his smaller form to increase his speed and fight back.
When he got up though, he was staring straight ahead at Xin, and she looked even more different compared to before. Out from one side of her back was a single wing. It was giant in size, it was fairly small looking just like another arm of hers, but the sparks were growing in size more and more.
“I need to stop her!” Gil thought as he charged ahead. His body accelerated forward.
At the same time, when Xin left her position, she had already reached him with an open fist landing directly on his face. The power was immense as a pulsing shockwave of lightning had gone through the area.
Those on the floor above could feel a slight shock underneath them, like a strong sense of static hitting them all.
As for Gil, he had gone flying through the air backwards, crashing through the wall, and was back at the front of the hospital.
Xin carefully walked out through the front as lightning continued to spark off her body and finally left the place.
“I got him out of here, I got him out of the hospital, now I know the others are safe at least,” Xin said to herself.
She was breathing in deeper as she walked forward relatively quickly and with deep breaths.
‘Using my Altered form, the only way I know how to use it properly is by holding my breath. Attacking with all my power and lightning, I can’t even concentrate on breathing. So I can’t just keep attacking attack after attack.’
‘Thankfully though, my attacks are strong enough to hurt him and keep him down. I was a little worried when I saw him change form that I might not be able to hit him, but I’m faster than him still!’ Xin thought.
“You little b*tch!” Gil shouted as he got up. His face, the front of it looked to have been completely broken as it was bent to its side and blood was dripping from his mouth.
With his hand, Gil had pressed against it, and snapped it back into place. A loud cracking noise followed. It was the most hurt he had been in a fight since he had received his new Altered form.
“You weren’t like this the first time we fought, you could have used your Altered form back then and yet you didn’t!” Gil shouted. After just saying those words, he was heavily breathing in and out.
His voice was slightly louder as well when he spoke.
“I told you before, I can’t control this power,” Xin answered. Sparks came off from her hands and hit the floor a few times, as well as her single wing on her back. “If I had used it back then, there was a chance others would get hurt.”
“And now, I need to stop you, so you don’t hurt any more either.” Xin’s single wing started to spark more and more until it encased and looked even larger. From behind the wing, an electrical yellow streak was just wavering about in the air, looking somewhat like flames.
Meanwhile, Gil saw this, he just lifted his head and smiled.
“You want to help me,” Gil said to himself. “Very well, then help me.”
At that moment, when Gil lifted his head, a strange purple darkness covered both of his eyes, turning them almost black, and a hovering dark smoke appeared out from his body.
