The Over-Break System

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!

The effect of Brance's attack slamming into the ground matched that of the name he had shouted, Devastation. The explosive Boom was followed by a gust of strong wind that caused Cynrik and Brance to be whisked away like sticks in a hurricane.

[Damn it, Brannnncceeee!] Cynrik cried as he tumbled head over heels uncontrollably. He couldn't help but curse in his mind in regret due to not having gotten further away from the point of impact.

It didn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what would happen when you drop a 10+ Ton rock on the ground; it would generate an incredibly powerful shockwave, which is what the brothers were dealing with.

[shit, SHIT SHIT!] Cynrik yelped as his head smashed into debris, and he continued ragdolling through the air. After the third time hitting his head, Cynrik tucked in on himself and used his arms for protection.

Unlike him, though, Brance was in better shape; all he did was draw his shields and turtle behind them.

Eventually, Cynrik and Brance were released from the shock wave and skittered on the ground like sacks of potatoes until they finally stopped and crumbled into heaps on the floor.

Struggling to get back on his feet, Cynrik realized they had been thrown over 5 kilometers away from the gate. To make matters worse, when the dust fragments settled in the distance, he spotted the bloodied and disfigured Chimera still standing and now free from fire and the stone cage.

"You've gotta be kidding; how is that thing still on its feet," Cynrik complained while holding his battered and broken left arm with his right hand.

Standing beside Cynrik, Brance tightly gripped the front collar of his armor and pulled it down so he could breathe.

"Your guess is as good as mine, Cyn. Ugh, I gotta get this off." Complaining as he struggled to breathe due to his armor cutting off his airflow, Brance unclasped all the latches and removed the damaged chest plate, revealing a thin mesh of Scalemail body armor underneath.

Clunk, clank, clank

After removing his chest plate, Brance undid the gauntlets and pauldrons and was free of the bulky upper body armor. Upon dropping the equipment on the ground, it shattered into particles and disappeared from his inventory temporarily.

It had to be said that any equipment damaged or broken in the VR Capsule is unusable again until you exit and re-enter the simulation again. So although it may be damaged here in the VR Simulation, his actual equipment was undamaged.

[We are a little over five clicks (Kilometers) away from the target, too far to see its HUD; however, based on its Mana Signature, I surmise that it should be lower than 15% HP, which is astounding considering you dropped the freaking moon on it.

[Can you run it?] Brance asked as he examined the sorry state of his brother.

[If I force myself, probably, but I'd burn too much stamina due to my injuries. That crash landing fractured a bunch of my bones, so although I can move and fight because of how well I handle pain, I won't be able to move well for long.] Cynrik stated while examining his body.

[Plus, the more time we give that thing to heal, the less likely we can take it down without using our full power.]

[Fine, I'll get us there, but my Mana will hit damn near rock bottom. So don't expect me to lay the suppressive fire.] Wearing a frown and forming a claw with his right hand, Brance created a platform big enough for himself and Cynrik and sped off using it like a vehicle.

[Momentai little brother, we got this; just get me there in one piece.] Wearing a weak smile, Cynrik took a knee and hid the fact that blood was leaking from his mouth.

He had gravely downplayed how injured he was. Sure, the shockwave had broken bones, but he failed to state that since Brance had used a mixture of Light Mana and Terra to form the Chibaku Tensei, he suffered internal injuries due to having Mana Poisoning from coming into contact with the conflicting Affinity.

Cynrik didn't feel the need to admit this fact since, from the start, he only planned on fighting up to the Wave Twenty Boss and never going past that. With that thought in mind, Cynrik took several slow breaths and tried to rest for a minute or two before he exhausted his body and Mana in one last push.

Speeding over open ground, Brance drove them across the five km distance in less than three minutes, stopping around 30 meters from the battered, bleeding, and miserable Chimera.

Seeing the two who had harmed it so badly showing up unannounced, the Chimera growled and snarled at them while struggling to get up and defend itself from inevitable demise.

"What's up, big guy?" Cynrik chuckled as he lept off the platform with a bit of effort and slowly walked toward the creature.

Being this close to the Chimera, Cynrik quickly saw how badly affected it had been by his Omni-Poison, and he nodded in contentment. The creature was covered with festering boils and sores, which oozed a mixture of pus and blood.

Having had no way in the past to determine how potent the pellet was, this was valuable research for him. Deciding that time was of the essence since the creature was beginning to heal, with a wince of pain, he reached across his body and drew his Kodachi.

However, he felt something wrong when drawing his weapon and was dismayed to find the blade shattered and turning into particles. Understanding that his crashlanding had somehow counted as a final hit and taken away the rest of the Kodachi's durability, Cynrik dropped the hilt on the ground and looked up at the Chimera.

"Sigh, well, that sucks, heh," Laughing at his own misfortune and wobbling on his feet, Cynrik took a couple of steps forward before manifesting his Susanoo and breaking into a sprint with his right hand chambered against his hip.

Twisting his upper body while he ran and gripping his right wrist with his left hand, Cynrik channeled 17% of his 19% MP into his right fist and locked onto the spot between the Chimera's eyes.

[Brancie, this won't kill it, prep the final attack, get up here, and follow up because once I fire this off, I'm out.]

The instant Cynrik Spoke, Brance erupted in white, green, and tan Mana, slammed his shields together into the greatsword, and made chase while channeling his remaining Mana into the dull blade.

Seeing the two rushing forward with visible Mana manifested around them, the Chimera forced itself onto its feet and roared while generating thousands of flagpole-sized icicles and launching them at the brothers.

However, it wasn't enough to stop Cynrik and Brance as they weaved in and out of the ice storm.

Reaching the Chimera, Cynrik's hand exploded in Blackish purple flames as he jumped into the air and instantly appeared between the eyes of the Chimera and punched out, unleashing a full-power Futae No Kiwami.

TAP TAP SPLAT BOOOOOOM!!!

KWAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH

"ARGHHH, SWITCH!" Cynrik shouted as the Chimera Cried with its head flinging back, and his right arm shredded and turned to gory mist. Using the last bit of his Mana to shoot flames from his left hand, Cynrik threw his body away, revealing Brance with his greatsword raised right behind him.

"TAKE THIS!!!!" Bringing down his Mana Clad greatsword with all his might, Brance connected with the top of the creature's skull, causing it to cave in as blood and brain matter spewed out either side of the Chimera's head.
