Chapter 340: 340

Suddenly a beam of light illuminated the room before hitting Hanying in the side of the head followed by a vibrating sound as Haru realised what the cause of the light was. Hanying let go of the president and dropped to the floor as Haru turned back to see Mia was standing in the doorway holding a magic rifle against her shoulder and pointing it in the direction of Hanying.

“Mia, what are you doing here?” Haru asked, stunned by the fact that she had come into the bunker. But he heard a slight rustle as Hanying began to stand up and Mia shouted out to him.

“What are you waiting for!?” Mia yelled as Haru still hadn’t taken his eyes away from her but the panic in her voice was enough to remind him of the dire situation and he dashed forwards towards Hanying before grabbing the president by the collar of his shirt and throwing him backwards through the room, causing him to slide across the floor towards Mia as Haru kicked Hanying in the side of the head while he was down.

“Come on! Let’s go! The army is outside and they have planted bombs at the entrance. They want to bury this place and everything inside it.” Mia called out and urged Haru to follow her but her warning didn’t change Haru’s mind.

“Thanks for the help, but I’m not coming with you. I have to take care of a personal issue first. Tell them to go ahead and blow it up.” Haru said with a calm tone as he repeatedly stomped on Hanying’s head while he was still stunned from the rifle hitting him in the head. But it wasn’t enough to finish him.

Haru was purposely provoking him with each kick in order to inflict injury but not kill him. After all, he still wanted to fight against him to show him defeat before taking his life. He didn’t feel that it was right to just kill someone while they are down and defenceless even though he knew that Hanying didn’t have the same morals as he did.

“But you won’t be able to make it out! The foundations of this bunker are designed to collapse on themselves if the need arises. They plan to level this whole area. Stop being stubborn and hurry up! I thought you were smarter than this. You always thought about things strategically. What good do you think staying here will do?” Mia asked as she recalled her memories of the academy and the time that she had shared with Haru.

Haru looked back at her briefly before seeing that she had yet to flee but the president had already scrambled to his feet and was trying to make his way out of there as fast as he could. Yet Mia stayed behind to try to convince him to come with her.

But Haru knew that an explosion wouldn’t solve anything. Even if the whole tunnel was dropped on top of Hanying there was no guarantee that it would actually kill him. But that was the least of the things on Haru’s mind. Haru wanted to kill Hanying with his own hands and he was willing to do whatever it took to accomplish that.

“Get out of here right now. I’m staying behind and that’s final. This is my battle and my battle alone. I don’t need you getting in the way and slowing me down!” Haru yelled, as the constant nagging from Mia reminded him of how his mother would ask him to do things but as he did so he saw a frown appear on Mia’s face before she looked down at the ground.

“Ok… I guess I will get going then.” Mia said before turning her back towards him and walking away.

Haru sighed for a moment before hearing a groan beneath his foot as he looked down to see that Hanying’s face was covered in blood and it had run down his cheeks and pooled inside his mouth, making him choke on his own blood as he looked up at Haru with bloodshot eyes.

“Get up you piece of shit. It’s about time we ended this don’t you think? No more running and no more tricks. Just me and you.” Haru spoke in a stern tone as he glared down upon Hanying.

Although Hanying was much stronger and more experienced than Haru. At that moment as Haru glared upon him a cold chill ran down his spine as he knew that there was a chance that he would lose his life.

Haru took a few steps back and give Hanying space to get up but and then watched as he struggled to his feet with the aid of one of the desks in the room.

‘Maybe I kicked him a bit too much?’ Haru thought when suddenly Hanying held out his hand and then shot out the same vine-like whip he had used before but this time it seemed more directed as it headed for Haru’s throat.

‘It looks like I didn’t kick him enough.’ Haru’s mind raced as he kept his eyes locked on the whip but as he did so he realised that the whip wasn’t the main objective.

Although Haru had said that he wanted there to be no more tricks between them, Hanying used the whip as a distraction to ready a technique behind his back.

It looked as though he was hoping for Haru to avoid the attack so he could catch him off guard with whatever technique he was brewing but Haru wasn’t about to let himself be hit so easily.

‘He’s gotten sloppier. Before he wouldn’t have even thought to do something like this. Does he think that I will actually fall for it?’ Haru wondered as the whip inched ever closer to him before he figured out how to deal with it.

Haru’s finger twitched slightly as the wooden table that Hanying had used to aid him shot up in front of his attack, causing it to explode and send tiny splinters into the air as it completely obliterated it. The wood indiscriminately flew in every direction causing Hanying to cover his eyes to avoid being stabbed as Haru took the opportunity to attack.

As Hanying was covering his eyes Haru ran beneath the falling table and slid across the floor towards Hanying before popping up with as much power as he could muster, using his legs as spring as he twisted his hips towards him and extended his leg to kick Hanying directly in the chin.

The combined effort of Haru’s strength and technique was enough to lift Hanying’s body up into the air as his head flew backwards causing him to become dizzy from the impact which gave Haru yet another opening to attack.

Haru planted his foot on the ground and dropped his shoulder down before twisting his hips once again and spinning on his heel towards him and striking him in the chest.

Hanying flew back before hitting the wall, causing the concrete to crack and shatter as his head bounced against it before sliding down to his knees.

Hanying looked up at Haru with a look of defeat in his eyes but no matter what, Haru couldn’t shake the feeling that it was too easy. It felt as though Hanying was letting him hit him without fighting back.

“Just end it. I don’t want to be here anymore. Just go ahead and kill me already.” Hanying begged as he looked up at Haru with tears in his eyes.

But it was so uncharacteristic of him that Haru couldn’t help but feel like he was planning something else. Just as Haru took a step back he felt something hit him in the back and push him forwards towards Hanying.

Hanying jumped up from the ground and struck Haru in the face with his fist making him fly across the room and slam into one of the handrails in the corner.

Haru’s back slammed against the metal handrail causing a crack to echo out as he could no longer feel any sensation in his legs.

‘He broke my back with a single punch?’ Haru thought as a sharp pain shot up his spine but that was the least of his worries as he looked back to see that there were two Hanying’s in the room. One of them was bloody and injured from Haru’s attacks and the other was perfectly fine without even a single hint of damage on him.

Haru’s eyes widened as he thought that Hanying was using a technique to split his body in two but that was something that not just anyone could do and it was rare according to Li Jun. It made him panic but he didn’t know much about what was happening so instead he remained quiet and watched on.

Haru’s body began to glow yellow as the magic healed his broken spine he then got to his feet and looked on while pulling his sword out to hold in front of his face as he stood still and stared at both of them awaiting their attack but it didn’t come.

Instead of them both teaming up and attacking Haru the one without any damage on him walked up to the injured one and slapped him across the face.

“Agh, What was that for?!” Hanying asked as he looked at the mirror image of himself as the other Hanying walked around him and placed his hand on his shoulder.

“What have I told you about giving up so easily!? I know you hate being hurt but why would you ask your enemy to take your life?” The uninjured Hanying asked the one with blood streaming down his face.

“I’m just so tired of this. Why do you always make me stand-in for you!? I’m not you. I don’t think like you and I don’t like doing the things that you do.

I hate killing people yet you always force me to do things like this. It’s just so unfair. I was hoping that he would kill me and end this torture.” The injured Hanying said as looked up with even more tears in his eyes.

“Stop being dramatic Fen. How many times do I have to tell you that you’re better than this? You might be extremely strong but don’t you remember what happened to our father when he showed weakness in front of an enemy? If you carry on down this path you will end up just like him…” Hanying said as he put his hand against the other one’s shoulder before pushing him away.

Hanying’s push did nothing as the bloodied Hanying took a few steps back and sat down against the wall as the uninjured one looked towards Haru before taking off his cloak to reveal his large muscular frame.

“I’m surprised you managed to push my little brother to this point, Haru. He’s even stronger than me but the only issue is that he is a little bit stupid. Honestly, I have always wanted to fight you like this since the first time I met you but it wasn’t the right time. But now seems pretty good to me. So how about it? Let’s see who is stronger.” Hanying smiled a sinister grin as he looked at Haru who was beginning to feel fatigued from fighting all day.

But Hanying was exploding with power as a red mist emerged from his body as he began to walk towards Haru.
