Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse novel Chapter 5253

Chapter 5253: Persevere! IV

Noah coated his hands.

The obsidian Infinity from the surrounding beach answered THE Infinite Tongue without argument, pulling toward his grip and compressing into a dense layer across his knuckles and forearms, the Galdr Source concentrating it further until the coating carried the viscous density of his full Source expression rather than the loose ambient material it had been before he touched it. His fists burned obsidian-multicolored, the darkness of the Infinity threading through with the gold of his Galdr.

He moved toward the Utahraptor!

His footwork was fluid and low, his body swaying lightly with brutality as each step rolled into the next with the continuous momentum of water finding its way downhill!

The Utahraptor drove its lightning toward him and he rolled under it, the motion carrying him beneath the strike and into the Utahraptor’s throat, and he came up with a punch coated with his source to hit the Utahraptor’s jaw from below!

BOOM!

The obsidian coating on his arm discharged on contact.

The Utahraptor’s head snapped back.

It came back with a low sweep of its tail and a lightning tendril from its right, the combination designed for the specific geometry of something that had fought many things and built patterns around what worked. Noah stepped over the tail with a sweeping lateral kick that changed his position without stopping his momentum, the kick connecting with the Utahraptor’s knee on the way past, and the lightning tendril hit the space he had just vacated.

He was already behind it. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

His heel came down across the back of the Utahraptor’s neck with the full compression of his Galdr Source behind it and the obsidian Infinity coating making the contact point a concentrated delivery of everything he was currently carrying.

BOOM!

The Utahraptor went down hard.

"PERSEVERE!"

Obsidian flames. The Source healing again, the wounds closing in the surge of Primordial Tongue authority, the Utahraptor rising back to its feet with the specific quality of something that had found its bottom and bounced off it. Its lightning was brighter this time. Its eyes burned harder.

Noah watched the recovery with genuine interest.

He moved back in as he loved getting physical!

The rhythm of the engagement settled into something he was reading and the Utahraptor was not, his footwork carrying him around the Utahraptor’s committed strikes rather than through them, the swaying lateral motion making him a target that resolved in different positions than the targeting had accounted for. He hit it from three different angles in a sequence that did not give the Utahraptor time to establish a defensive posture between impacts, his hands and feet working in the rolling continuous combination of someone who had decided the fight was an exercise in expression rather than survival.

The Utahraptor’s lightning fought back with everything it had.

Noah’s Vector redirected what it could and his Source absorbed what it couldn’t redirect, the obsidian strikes landing on him with decreasing effect as the fight deepened and the Utahraptor’s reserves burned through their recovered fullness faster with each Persevere cycle.

The second Persevere came slower than the first.

The wounds it healed were the same wounds, or similar enough, but the roar had less behind it. The Primordial Tongue cost something. Using it repeatedly cost more of something, the same word drawing from the same well and finding the well slightly less full each time.
