Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!-Chapter 74: Small but powerful movements

It was a fast and deadly enough attack that not many people would be able to react if they were in Matt's position; it even made many stand up, thinking the fight was going to end.

After all, it was very close to Matt!

Yet, just at those moments, a thunderous sound reached everyone's ears...

*CLANK*

The sound of two weapons clashing came just as Matt drew his sword to parry the attack.

"Does he use a sword too?" wondered many in shock, but again Matt made an unexpected move for them, instantly moving all the vampiric power to his right arm and unleashing a solid blow towards Eliot's chest.

Even he wasn't expecting it, so he had to withstand the blow with all his might, although he was still pushed backwards for several meters. The impact on his chest was enough to startle him slightly.

'Shit, what the hell was that?' He thought, trying to understand Matt's attack.

One moment, he was defending, and in the other instant, he attacked with the other side of his body, using tremendous force.

'Is he strong enough to do that?' He thought while breathing heavily.

Still, Matt wouldn't let this opportunity to catch him off guard pass him by.

So, he pounced on him with a leap, as the vampiric power in his body flashed brightly, rapidly increasing the vampiric power in his right arm. He wanted to deal him a decisive blow before this guy could use his trump cards.

That made many people have their hearts in their throats. A punch as powerful as that could even take Eliot out of the fight in one fell swoop.

*BOOM*

The thunderous impact that came when Matt struck a stunned Eliot could be heard throughout the arena, but at those moments, Matt jumped backward several times as a flurry of attacks followed behind him.

In each place where he fell, a burst of vampiric power fell, opening a crack in the vast tile where they were fighting, but the counterattack he had suffered did not stop there.

Several powers were flying toward him, so he had to jump back several times to dodge all the attacks, and in the end, he had to cross his arms on his chest to defend himself from the last attack, which pushed him close to the arena's edge.

Matt was stunned and frowned, "You're very capable." He spoke.

Being able to counterattack at a time like this was tricky, even more so when Matt was attacking him from the front.

Even so, Eliot still managed to defend the attack and hit him with a powerful counterattack that almost knocked him out of the arena.

The movement of his sword was so fast that it almost fooled Matt's eye because of how close they were.

Eliot was the more surprised in this case, though.

"You were able to dodge all the damage. You're good." He said, somewhat surprised.

They both stared at each other for a brief moment until Eliot charged at high speed with a powerful attack.

His speed increased drastically in that instant, so he arrived at Matt's side in a few seconds, and the attack was even faster than his movement, surprising Matt, who could only raise his arm to defend himself.

The attack's impact sent him rolling to the other side of the arena.

Matt managed to stop quickly and jump to the side to dodge Eliot's next attack.

'He's fast.' Matt thought, so as soon as he hit the ground again, he leaped towards him, propelling himself with the vampiric power in his legs.

The speed he picked up was so incredible that he managed to land a powerful punch to Eliot's face and send him rolling across the fighting arena just as he had rolled seconds before.

Even so, Eliot managed to stop himself by driving his sword into the ground.

"Shit, that's the first time I've ever gotten a guy who's as fast as me." He said, grumbling slightly as he spat a bit of blood towards his sword so that no one would notice.

Its movement was so small that, although they saw it spit blood, they didn't see where it landed. That included Matt, who prepared to attack once more.

But, in that instant, the blood glistened as it landed on the blade of the sword, and he made a strange movement then, like three small strokes in Matt's direction.

They were such small movements that almost no one could see them.

Still, Matt soon felt three attacks coming his way, 'What the hell!?' He thought in his head and quickly cocked his body to the right when an attack passed right where he was with great force.

Matt then jumped backward, and a powerful slash came down where he was, kicking up a lot of dust...

Even so, the dust was soon split in two, and Matt released a powerful punch to the front instantly...

*BOOOOOOOOM*

A powerful explosion sent Matt backward with force as he fell onto the fighting arena once again.

He was in shock but had to get up quickly to defend himself from Eliot, who was already above him, attacking him with his sword.

'Weight increase!' he shouted in his mind, increasing the weight of his hand as he swung upwards.

This resulted in an explosion that pushed both of them to two different sides of the arena. Still, Matt was in a disadvantageous position, so he fell rolling on the ground, almost falling off the arena once again.

Soon after, Matt got up from the ground and wiped the dust on his clothes.

He ran a finger over his face and noticed that he was injured; moreover, his fist was also injured and bleeding slightly.

This made him frown, and he looked at Eliot, who, besides being surprised, also wore a confident smile.

"I see. Such sharp attacks are a skill of your sword." Matt said, causing the smile on Eliot's face to wipe off for a moment.

"Well, figuring it out won't do you any good; why don't you think of a better way to counter it?" He replied mockingly.

Still, Matt ignored his taunts.

"It looks like I won't be able to beat that speed if I don't use my full ability. Sorry, but you'll have to get out of the arena." Matt replied with a calm smile on his face.
