Chapter 61: Her pattern

Alex and Schnee had been fighting in the same place they had met.

It was one of the vast corridors in the Deathwill Castle. That building was truly massive, so it could contain thousands of people, if not more! Worse, it was made out of black bricks, so it was really dark here.

Torches filled with fire magic stones lit up the corridor. Alas, the dark bricks openly invited some darkness here. Tall walls also cast some shadows.

Therefore, it was still dark around…

Alex directed his attention to the darkest corners and shadows, believing that Schnee had been using those for her advantage.

‘First Dollar, and now her… I’ve faced two individuals whose specialty is to play around with the vision… She can’t be using the same skill, can she?’ Alex inwardly thought as he analyzed the battle.

But as Alex found nothing in the shadows, even after Schnee’s another punch, he couldn’t help but think about Dollar’s skill.

Unfortunately, Schnee had been using something much different and clever.

Alex clicked his tongue and looked around.

“Oh, so you have finally realized that looking around for clues is useless. Good boy,” Schnee’s ringing laughter rang out once again, “Yes. Just look out for me and do your best to scratch a little of my sexy curves. Ah, have I tempted you enough? Now that you are more interested in girls, that little temptation should make you work harder! Haha!”

She and her skills kept provoking and looking down on him.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

[You have lost -29 HP!]

Schnee’s attacks did a little HP, but they forced Alex to spit out a mouthful of blood. She was a nimble, fast, and annoying person to fight against!

Alex could only imagine what kind of words she would use against the enemy! She surely would point out all their mistakes and tease him until death!

But as he thought about it, Alex suddenly realized something crucial, ‘She wants to tell me one of the reasons she is still staying in the Deathwill Castle… It’s not enough to suddenly propose a fight… She did it after the talk with Sara, so she must have seen through us already…’

Alex narrowed his eyes, ‘Is she testing me? Is it about my mental attitude?’

It went without saying that Alex had been getting angrier with each punch. It was an important battle that could help him with his relationship with the cat woman. He also would be able to learn more about her abilities.

But so far, he only knew she could play well with the enemy’s vision.

It was simply disappointing of him.

At this rate, he would disappoint not only himself but Schnee too.

Alex couldn’t tell the exact reason, but he decided on quenching his feelings. As the swordsman, he should be able to entirely focus on his enemy without letting his feelings go in the way.

More punches came from the shadows. But this time, Alex took them without any changes in his expression. Anger had long since run away from his face.

He also looked for Schnee but to no avail.

Nonetheless, Schnee’s laughter dimmed, and she said fewer and fewer words.

As the fight continued, Alex noticed a pattern in her attacks.

‘It was hard to notice because I kept spitting blood… But now that I am focused, I can tell where her punches precisely land… If I am right… then…’ Alex narrowed his eyes.

He shifted them to the side just before the attack landed on him.

And as he did, he suddenly noticed a small cat going his way!

Her paw was in front, ready to punch him!

Alex’s thrust was also in motion. That sword would be the first one to decisively strike back.

It would be his first retaliation! And Alex had a feeling it would end with success as that small cat had no way of suddenly turning around or changing her trajectory!

Alex and Schnee’s eyes met.

Before the sword touched her, Schnee’s cat form suddenly shone a bright light. In a flash, she turned into her sexy human self.

However, as her feet landed on the ground, Alex’s sword was just an inch before her body!

She indeed didn’t have time to turn around and dodge!

But then, Alex stopped his sword just before her ample chest.

Schnee squinted her eyes, standing in a very awkward but arousing position, “Why did you stop? It would be your win.”

“If I didn’t stop, I would pierce through your chest. And as you have said before, I have developed more interest in your bodies. Rather than piercing through it with my sword, I would rather practice gripping on those tits with my hands,” Alex replied with a smile, but even he found his words a little too awkward.

Schnee lifted her eyebrows, her face conveying a simple message, ‘Is he serious?’

But then, she sighed and took a few steps behind, “We, girls, can not underestimate the horny guys, can we? The only positive thing about you being horny is that I don’t have to fix my clothes.”

She gave him a glance, then turned around, “It’s your win. If it weren’t for Stella, you would’ve scratched me. A complete horny moron would’ve cut through my clothes without second thoughts, so you won some good points, Alex.”

Schnee approached the window, then lifted her head. Looking at the dark clouds and sky, Schnee gave off a much different aura. She no longer had that sexy and teasing mood around her but a melancholic one.

Alex threw his sword into his inventory, then approached her.

“Were you turning from cat to human form in between attacks?” Alex first asked the question about their battle.

Schnee nodded, “You saw it, didn’t you? I can morph into my cat form in less than a second. Everyone from our clan is fast; even those who practice magic techniques rarely move their asses.

And as you have seen just now, I like to move around, so my speed is top-notch,” Schnee gave a rare, honest smile, which was undoubtedly connected to her melancholy about her cat clan.

Alex stared at her thoughtfully, “I saw, and I am genuinely impressed by your abilities. I don’t know if it’s your weakness or not, but if I didn’t see through your pattern, I would’ve lost that battle.

That leads me to the second question… You were testing me, right?”

“It is my weakness,” Schnee replied to his words.

Then, she parted her lips and replied to his second question.
