Chapter 328: Never Anger a Touch 4

''What did you do to my body?" 

Maddog asked; he tried channeling Mana through his body to revitalize his cells which were dying at an extreme rate

''Puh!" 

He puked blood and was sent flying by Gracier's flaming kick; since the start of this fight, more than 10 minutes have passed.

''I just sent my flame into your body to slowly break your cells from the inside; without cells, you won't be able to construct new skins. I am wrong?" Gracier asked. She slowly approached Maddog; numerous flame chains bound him to the ground; these chains were searing through Maddog's damaged skin, emitting a burnt smell.

''Indeed, you are right. How brilliant of you. Hehehe." Maddog burst into laughter at the end of his sentence. 

Gracier sensed that something was not right; therefore, she stopped right in her track and jumped back.

''Sharp instinct. You managed to surprise me again!" Maddog said with a vicious smile. "And I should have expected nothing less from the Eighth."

''However, as I said, I'm not a weakling even though I'm a scientist. Let's me show what absolute strength is.'' Maddog said, then released the restrictions on his pores.

BOOOM

A frightening aura exploded out of him like a tsunami, destroying everything part of the wall behind him. The ground toppled while the domain collapsed into lingering streams of fire.

"!!"

Gracier grew alarmed as she understood what was going on; Maddog activated his domain; somehow, this increased his strength; not only that, but Maddog himself was going through some changes. 

'No good, I must finish him before he managed to complete his transformation.' Gracier thought before using Fire lotus on him. 

Beautiful dark gold flame lotus blossom with Maddog inside it. 

Boom! 

The area around Maddog was instantly transformed into molten lava; strangely, Maddog was unharmed; he was silently floating above the burning lava.

Maddog stood floating in the middle of the lava. The skin on his body turned into the darker shade of sharp metal; he looked like a metal man. 

When he looked at Gracier, there was no look of fear on her face; it was blank as paper, so Maddog snickered before moving one arm. 

Gracier sensed immense danger; she knew she would be unable to escape from whatever was coming; therefore, she wrapped flame around her heart to slightly shifted its position as she knew where the incoming attack was going to strike. 

This feat was not without consequence; Gracier puked blood, at the same time, fine black thread pierced through her chest and narrowly missed her heart.

Maddog was surprised; even his reaction was quick; that fine black thread wrapped around Gracier's body and brought her toward Maddog; everything happened in seconds. 

By the time Gracier could move, she found herself caught; Maddog was holding her by the neck. Gracier tried to kick him but to no avail.

''Hehehe! Obediently stop resisting; my skin is tough as adamantine. I'm invincible.'' Maddog proudly declared.

''I wonder about that,'' Gracier said with ridicule before sending her knee into the man's stomach; the result was the same. 

''Did I not-" 

Maddog abruptly stopped talking; his eyes bulged out of their sockets as if he was in imaginable pain. 

Indeed, he was. Gracier's special attack was a diversion; her real attack was a small fireball in the balls.

From her second foot, a small fireball shot out and crashed against Maddog's crotch; no matter how much he could strengthen his skin, the crotch can't be strengthened so that it will remain a weak spot. Well, not everyone is despicable enough to strike his opponent in the crotch in the middle of battle. 

Maddog had his balls crushed then burned; the pain was so intense that he let go of Gracier, who fell into the lava while himself was sent flying on the opposite side. 

The mad scientist became furious; how dare she touch his crotch?!

It was burned to such an extent that even he could not bear to look at it! And unlike with his face, using fake skin or another man's skin would prove useless! It was burnt to a molecular level, not a priest; only divine medicine might help him.

So, even if a woman wanted to be with him, he could never show his destroyed treasure to her! Forget about using it!

Gracier observed Maddog with a warm smile. She has already left the lava shining as if she had taken a warm bath.

''Ops! Sorry, I missed my aim.'' She said her apologies did not sound like an apology at all. 

Black veins appeared all over Maddog's face; he decided to torture this bitch to the extent that not even her mother would not recognize her when she saw her. 

At the same time, Ignia was warning Gracier that she was about to run out of time. 

[Daughter, you should flee, this man is too strong, almost at the Saint Realm.] 

'I know, but I must have my revenge. I must avenge the others.' Gracier refused to listen to Ignia's advice.

'I still have one card up my sleeve that I have not used.' Gracier added; Ignia instantly paled; how couldn't she know what Gracier was talking about? 

[Child don't, it's too risky. Please stop]

Ignia's warning fell on deaf ears. 

Gracier had already opened the lock she and Ignia placed around her heart, an area inside her heart; the moment the seals were lifted, Gracier's heart started beating at fast speed.

Ba-dump! Ba-dump!

The furious Maddog arrived before Gracier at that moment; however, when he wanted to clutch her neck again, he jumped back out of fear. Instantly, black fog covered Gracier's body.

'What is this?' Maddog questioned himself; it was like he is facing a terrible monster; even he could feel the fear at the molecular level; all cells inside his body were screaming at him to run. 

Only one time he had felt such a fear, it was when he accidentally angered the vice guild leader, the young man with golden eyes father, to think Gracier would make him remember such a past; she must have a death wish. 

Before Maddog could move, the black fog covering her body disappeared, and what appeared shocked him to the core.
