Chapter 19 - The Frog Guy

I held my deagle out once again while keeping the knife in the other, this guy was definitely not going to be happy with that kind of response.

"What the hell are you talking about kid? This is real shit. I wouldn't expect you to understand, you should go back home." He responded with a bit of anger in his voice.

"You! The frog guy." I shouted back at him while holding back a laugh.

"Zero what are you doing?" Rezex questioned with a confused tone.

"Bwahahaha! Seriously? You think this guy should be taken seriously?!?!" I replied while laughing.

Click. CLANK. CLUNK. The sounds of something moving within his arm was all I heard all of a sudden. "Have it your way dumbass." The Frog Guy said as he dashed towards me.

Shove!!! I felt myself getting pushed out of the way as Rezex blocked the swing of his sword with his knife.

Swoosh!!! Wind went past me as the ground broke a bit underneath Rezex. That metal is definitely no joke and I can even see Rezex's knife starting to crack.

I can't help the way I take things sometimes, this is just how I am. Laughing at those I can't take serious while letting myself get pissed off about other dumb shit.

Gahhh. I can't understand the way I think sometimes but I guess it doesn't matter as long as everything gets done.

I have a job to do here so that's exactly what I need to focus on instead. It doesn't matter if the guy looks dumb as hell or if things piss me off. There's no need to think about all of that.

Cruel, cold calculations are all that I need to start climbing to the top.

Bang!!! I pulled the trigger of my deagle instantly and began to run to try to get behind him. The bullet pierced his leg without any problems but it didn't phase him in the slightest.

"So the kid has balls, that's good. I'll handle you both!" He shouted before stepping back away from Rezex.

I can tell that Rezex has a bit of relief to have that pressure off of him for a moment but this guy is about to step it up a bit. The response alone was enough to tell me that.

Frog Guy is definitely getting more serious about this whole fight with us. The metal in his body is all moving to prepare for the battle ahead.

I've always hated the idea of meeting people with so many different cybernetic modifications to their body. It is definitely some of the grossest shit to see.

Humans shouldn't need all of that but I guess I lost the right to say anything after getting the metal I have.

"Let's just handle this, we have an advantage Zero! Mana!" Rezex shouted with a serious tone.

Mana. Yes, my arm is still glowing enough for me to use it. I could've sworn that I used a lot more than I have but I guess luck is on my side to right now.

Fighting against this guy with mana will definitely change the way this fight goes by one hundred fold.

Just need to focus.

"Mana? You two couldn't possibly use it. Even though I recognize the glow you both have to you. Good luck hahaha." Frog Guy said with disbelief.

I could see the purple glow starting to radiate around Rezex's mask before he charged in towards the man. Clash!!! His dagger immediately clashed with frog guys sword, giving me the opportunity to do something.

After taking a feel deep breaths I focused on channeling the mana into my deagle shots, it was a gamble. The deagle wasn't anything like the LZR-01 so it wouldn't last as long.

It didn't matter as long as we took care of this guy, the others were relying on it. This was the first time I saw Pinky all messed up.

"I won't disappoint." I muttered.

BANG! BANG!! BANG!!!! My shots were starting to run low in my current magazine but I could see each of them hitting the frog guy.

BURST!! BURST!!!! BURST!!!!!! Each shot hit a different part of his body and sent ice bursting out the other side of the part. One through his leg, his right arm, and then his chest.

Splat!!! Blood hit the floor immediately and only continued to drip. Slice!!! Rezex didn't hesitate to take advantage of the shots and slashed across his chest.

Frog guys defense was gone after the shots bursted through him like they did. A huge burst of purple light went across the frog guy and I watched as he stumbled back.

Rezex has definitely got to teach me more about that purple shit, whatever it is. He is doing so much damage with whatever that... It is insanely strong.

Looking down at my arm I noticed that the blue was pretty much faint, nothing was really glowing anymore.

Frog Guy spit out some blood and took a moment to collect himself. Blood was dripping from all over his body but he didn't seem to be done with the fight just yet.

"Alright. I should've given some credit to both, but that's fine." Frog Guy said while stabbing his sword into the ground.

Steam bursted out from his back as he took off the armor he was wearing. It wasn't really helping him anyway so it didn't matter.

These strange orange circles seemed to be popping out from his back. Within a matter of moments I saw him go flying towards me with flames flying out behind him from those circles.

This guy really had thrusters implanted in his back to help with speed? He's a huge guy with speed from these damn thrusters, this isn't going to be fun.

Pow!!!! I just barely managed to lift my arms to block against his punch but it felt like bricks slamming into my arms. Even my modified arm felt like a normal arm with this kind of strength going into it.
