BXBX NOVEL Chapter 292 Relentless
Orun threw away the detached arms and focused on dealing more damage to the body that was still on its two knees.
After he had ripped off the two arms from the rest of its body, Orun proceeded to attack what was left of the body, but was unable to.
Before he could do any more damage, the body of Mammon that was on its knee turned back into its hazy smoke form, and dispersed itself away from where Orun was.
"You are a bit abrasive for a spirit elemental king, don\'t you think".
It\'s mouth was the first organ to form before the rest of its body followed after its escape from Orun.
All the damage it had taken from Orun, even the two hands that were detached. Everything had been reinstalled the moment it turned back to its physical form.
It was as if Orun had never even attacked it to begin with.
Orun ignored the fact that there was no damage done to Mammon, and instead proceeded to make his attack on it again.
He closed the gap between the two of them, and thrusted out his leg to the left side of Mammon\'s body.
Orun\'s leg had almost made contact with Mammon when it\'s body turned back into an hazy smoke.
It wasn\'t all its body that turned into hazy smoke, but just the side that Orun planned to deal damage to.
He slightly lifted his body off the ground, with an height that had his upper body on the same height with Mammon\'s head.
From that position, Orun reached out his leg, with the intention of delivering a kick to Mammon\'s head.
And again, the part of its head where Orun aimed his attack on turned back into an hazy black smoke just before his leg could reach it.
Mammon without making any unnecessary movement, from where it stood, stretched out its right hand toward Orun\'s face with the intention to cover his face using its palm.
Orun raised his right hand upward, and in response to his action came a fire arrow floating above and pointing down on the hand that Mammon had stretched out.
Mammon was forced to have the hand disperse into an hazy smoke due to the fire arrow coming down on it.
It does not want to come into direct contact with Orun\'s attacks, so it takes the chances it gets to change its body into a state that will have Orun\'s attack prove useless against it.
Orun made use of the opportunity to make some distance between he and Mammon.
"You are not a very bright spirit elemental king, are you".
Mammon fixed up its body, turning its arm back into physical form.
Orun did not respond to Mammon form of sarcasm, and instead continued his relentless assault on it.
He charged at Mammon head on, this time not resorting to any trickery or making use of his speed that allowed him the moment to disappear from a spot and instantly reappear miles away in another spot.
What he did was a normal charging attack with Orun moving at a pace that even Elmon\'s eyes could follow through.
Orun got to Mammon and threw a right hand jab toward Mammon. It fended of the jab by countering Orun\'s jab with a jab of its own.
Their hands collided resulting in Mammon\'s fist getting crushed and turned back into its hazy form.
From its left came another jab from Orun, and this time around, he successfully landed his fist on Mammon\'s left cheek.
The force from Orun\'s attack sent Mammon\'s body crashing to the gate.
"You are right about me not being a very bright elemental spirit king".
The crash on the gate led Mammon\'s body to be disfigured, but it hastily recovered by having it turn into an hazy smoke and shortly after into its physical form.
"But then I realized something amazing".
Orun resumed his attack on Mammon when he saw that it had fully recovered to its physical form.
He went after Mammon by going at it from the side, it\'s left side of the skull to be precise.
Coming from the left, Orun reached out his right palm and connected it to Mammon\'s left skull.
When the connection was made, he pushed Mammon further until its other skull which is the right skull crashed through the wall.
Orun did not stop and instead continued to push Mammon in with his palm still connected to its left skull.
"My opponent is a demon lord with an incomplete form that has to constantly regenerate by making use of your mana whenever it\'s physical body is damaged".
To stop itself from being buried into the wall, Mammon turned its whole body into an hazy black smoke, and then it seeped it past Orun to escape from the hole that was caused by using its body to crash through the walls.
There was nothing Orun could have done to prevent Mammon from escaping the hole.
Its body had turned to its usual black haze smoke, and Orun against that form could not do anything.
Whatever attacks are made will just make it seem like he was punching through air, and air does not take any damage.
The physical form of Mammon however cannot be said to be the same as the lack hazy smoke like form.
Whenever Orun attacks Mammon\'s physical form, it is always quick to take advantage of turning into its hazy smoke form because it knows that Orun cannot do anything to hurt it in that form.
And it is right to think like that, because truly, there is less for Orun to do when up against air.
It is a different case however when that air is capable of turning into a physical body.
And how does it do that? By expending mana in the creation of a physical form.
Surely, the ability to create a solid form from a gaseous form by making use of mana cannot be an easy process to accomplish, or a low count mana to make possible.
