Chapter 453 Kahglia (2)

When the Flesh Golem stepped backward to try and put some distance between itself and Kahglia, Kahglia immediately chased after it, not giving the Flesh Golem a single chance to take control over the flow of the battle. Kahglia unleashed a storm of fists toward the Flesh Golem. It managed to defend against some of the attacks with its arms. Others struck its head with enough force to make its head begin to crack.

However, no matter what damage Kahglia inflicted on the Flesh Golem, it was all restored after a couple of seconds. The Flesh Golem defended its head because it would take a lot of demonic energy to repair its brain and eyes. If the Flesh Golem let Kahglia go to town on his head without defending or being able to retaliate, it would eventually be unable to keep up with its consumption of demonic energy.

But, if it could trade blows with Kahglia, the Flesh Golem would undoubtedly come out victorious. Kahglia's blows might be more powerful and ferocious than the Flesh Golem's attacks, but she didn't have the same regenerative powers as the Flesh Golem. So, if the two traded blow for blow and turned it into a dogfight, the Flesh Golem should win.

And it seemed like it would get the chance since Kahglia didn't bother about her defense. She unleashed fist after fist with dogged determination toward the Flesh Golem's head. The Flesh Golem eventually stopped bothering to defend and rose to its full length so that Kahglia would have to swing upward in order to hit it. Kahglia's fists repeatedly hit and broke the Flesh Golem's jaws and neck, but she didn't reach the eyes or the upper parts of the skull with the same ease as when the Flesh Golem tried to bend down and shield its head with its arms.

And that wasn't the only thing. Since the Flesh Golem stopped trying to defend itself, it freed its arms and could start returning Kahglia's blows.

Since Kahglia's arms and fists flew forward in a trajectory from her shoulders and up toward the Flesh Golem's face, the Flesh Golem couldn't get a clean shot to her head. But with its longer arms, the Flesh Golem could bend them down slightly and unleash a torrent of sucker punches toward Kahglia's torso.

The Flesh Golem's punches were a little tentative and were more to test Kahglia's reactions and defenses and what she would do when the Flesh Golem gave up its defense in order to return her blows.

Unlike what the Flesh Golem thought, but as it hoped, Kahglia practically ignored the Flesh Golem's heavy fists as they started flying into her stomach. However, the Flesh Golem quickly understood why Kahglia wasn't worried about defending her body. It was rock-solid. The Flesh Golem's punches didn't even make Kahglia stumble or lose her rhythm as she continued mangling the Flesh Golem's jaw and face with her spiked brass knuckles.

But the Flesh Golem didn't give up. It was confident that it would eventually prevail as long as Kahglia was alive. The demonic energy powering its fists and surrounding them both in the fog would eventually wear away at Kaghlia's life force and weaken her until she could no longer put up a defense.

In the first place, the fact that Kahglia was even strong enough to compete with the Flesh Golem while at the ninth level was nothing less than a miracle. Even if she were close to the transcendent level, she wouldn't have the same amount of mana and strength as the Flesh Golem, who had been created from the remains of several thousand corpses of high level beings.

But unlike what the Flesh Golem and its master, the lich, thought. Kahglia didn't show any signs of growing weakness in the face of the death attribute demonic energy assailing her. The only signs of her battle with the Flesh Golem were the bruises that had started showing on her torso. But a tranquil energy coming from the leather armor on her chest and upper legs was quickly working away those bruises.

If anything, Kahglia's fists were growing heavier and heavier the longer the slugfest continued.

With her spiked brass knuckles increasing the damage she dealt with each blow, Kahglia gradually began to wear away at the Flesh Golem's face as she slowly began to catch up to its regenerative powers.

The Flesh Golem's jaw was gone, and its chin was a mangled mess of flesh, sinews, and bone. And with Kahglia's fists reaching further and further with every blow, she eventually started pushing the Flesh Golem backward. The Flesh Golem could tell how close Kahglia was to blasting open its skull and reflexively began moving its head back to avoid her blows.

However, when the Flesh Golem started doing it, it had already begun losing the dogfight. Moving its head back was a sign it feared Kahglia's blows. And that fear hindered its movements. The Flesh Golem's punches lost some of their power, and the Flesh Golem continued to be pushed back by Kahglia as she once again took control of the flow of the battle.

Although, Kahglia hadn't taken a single step backward during the entire fight, so maybe she had always been in control of the flow. Now, she was just beginning to dominate the Flesh Golem. Just like she did with her first round of fists before the Flesh Golem tried to retaliate.

Unfortunately for the Flesh Golem, its attempt at winning a dogfight was less than successful. Kahglia was stronger and sturdier than expected, and its punches were almost completely futile.

When the Flesh Golem began to fall under Kahglia's relentless assault, it was already too late for it to make a comeback. The fury blazing in the lich's ghost flame eyes was nearly tangible. But if The Flesh Golem couldn't win over Kahglia, there was nothing they could do. The lich almost wanted to claim that it was unfair that the Alliance of Kingdoms brought in someone so close to the transcendent level when it was supposed to be a high level battle. But the lich was smart enough to know that it would only backfire. Their side had been the first to do that, after all.

However, the battle wasn't over yet. The lich looked at the orb in its hands with a painfully determined expression.
