Absalom's sword slashed through Kortopi's arm, leaving him armless but immediately another arm materialized through the darkness that loomed at the edge of the cut.
"Oh, shit..." Absalom grunted as he saw Kortopi quickly regain his composure and dash at him again.
Their swords clashed together in another shower of sparks. Despite, the consistent failures, Kortopi was relentless, he kept copying and failing over and over again losing more parts of his body but his endless regeneration thanks to Raith's increased energy gave him ample opportunities to try again.
'...shit, shit, he keeps regenerating...' Absalom panted as he stared at Kortopi who was just recovering from another slash that he embedded in his chest. His eyes then drifted to Raith who was standing three buildings away from them.
'...since he is the one that summoned him, doesn't that mean that he will die once I finish that bastard.' Absalom looked in Raith's direction with squinted eyes, keenly seeking to observe Raith from where he stood.
wham!!
Absalom dashed away, tremendously increasing his speed and sweeping past Kortopi before he even saw it coming.
Raith smirked as he saw Absalom coming towards him.
Shit from his vantage point it was taking Absalom forever to reach where he is. He stayed still with his hands in his pocket and one corner of his lips curved up and patiently waited for Absalom to reach.
Clang!!
He blocked Absalom's powerful strike with a dagger in one hand, his second hand in his pocket.
"...what are you doing? I am not even your enemy." Raith said to him.
"Shut up!! You cockroach, that thing will only die when you die!"
"I agree but what if he kills you from behind..."
Wham!!
Absalom flew away before the sword slash from behind could separate his head from his neck. He immediately touched his neck to make sure there was no cut there, he was dazed and his eyeballs were shaking.
"This monster really wants to kill me... wait is it angry?"
Absalom was shocked, before now Kortopi showed no emotions but suddenly his black body was like a burning black fire, and his eyes were furrowed so much that made it obvious how angry he was.
Even Raith was surprised, if Absalom was a tad late to dodge that attack, Absalom would have died.
"He is angry because Absalom slipped through him and attacked me?..."
Kortopi right now was madly angry at himself but taking it out on his opponent.

"This is crazy, we are going to launch a man into space using the latest rocket we just built that could go farther into space than any other rocket model we've built before now?" The first scientist spoke, complaining.
"Don't complain, with that much money we would be able to go for an even better project. Besides, do we have the guts to say no to Turner?"
The rest of them got silent.
Moments later, a tall dark skinned guy wearing a big wide smile that revealed gold teeth, his buzz cut was orange colored with a parting on one side, he walked through the scientists and as he walked ahead they all followed him to the launch site.
The rocket towered above all of them, gleaming in the bright sunlight. It was a massive, sleek vehicle, packed with the latest technology and cutting-edge equipment. The scientists had spent years designing and building it, pouring their hearts and souls into every detail, to think they would have to give it up because a man wants to reach South Korea in five minutes.
"Do what you need to do and be quick about it. I am already forty minutes late." Turner complained as he entered the rocket, his harsh baritone voice quaking their hearts.
pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ With a flurry of activity, the team began their final checks. They checked and re-checked every system, every circuit, and every sensor.
Finally, everything was in place. The scientists all stepped back, their eyes fixed on the rocket as the countdown began.
"Ten, nine, eight..." the voice over the loudspeaker counted down. The tension in the air was palpable.
"Three, two, one, blastoff!" The rocket ignited with a deafening roar, flames shooting out from beneath it as it lifted off the ground. The scientists watched in awe and sadness as the rocket ascended higher and higher into the sky.
"Hmmm..." Turner slowly sipped the glass of fruit juice he took before entering. With no protective suit of any kind, he was in a tank top and black pants.
His tank tops flexed the curvatures of his arms and shoulder muscles. He waited till the rocket had gone very high in the sky and he could get a good view of the entire landscape of the world in general.
Then as the rocket passed Earth's gravity orbit and began to come apart, he looked through the window, he looked around a few times before finally finding what he was looking for.
"Ah, there they are..." He said with a grin and immediately, the air around him began to get very hot. Perspirations began to drop from his body as the intensity of the heat continued and suddenly–
KABOOOOMM!!!
The spaceship exploded.

Headquarters of South Korea National Security.
In a room filled with multiple agents behind a computer screen and a large screen in front of them, on the screen was an aerial view of the country's entire landscape, a feed that was coming directly from the satellite.
"Alert! Alert! Alert! Unidentified Flying Object(UFO) detected in the orbit."
At once an uproar suddenly rose in the room as the agents ran from screen to screen, the arrogant and fast typing of keyboards filled everywhere, and calls surged in and out of the office.
"What is going on? The entire sky is red!! Is a comet going to fall on our country?!!"
"We have not identified the cause of this phenomenon but all citizens within the landing area should be evacuated with level one priority."
"Object identified to be a human!" Another agent shouted as they could get a clear view that was displayed on the large monitor.
As their eyes fell on the screen, all of them were dazed, and shocked, phones that they were answering fell off their hand as they tried to make sense of what they saw.
"Hello!"
"What is going on there!!"
"Someone respond!!"
"Hello!!"
Different voices sounded out of the telephone.
"This is impossible..." An agent mumbled with a shaking voice.
As Turner descended on the country around him was gathered a force field that was strong enough to rival the gravitational field of the earth itself. This meant that Turner right now was not falling at the rate at which he should fall due to the laws of Earth's gravity.
He had created a force field around himself that determined his own falling speed and how deadly the impact of his fall was going to be. It was like a comet but let's say a comet that could defy the force field of the earth.
The destruction of Seoul in its entirety was certain.
