Chapter 289: 289. A Monstrous Transformation
Orion smiled when he saw that it was finally his turn.
"Ray, all the best." Shuna said to him.
Orion nodded and walked towards Rudy.
"Hello, we haven't met before, have we? I am Rudy." Rudy introduced himself when Orion appeared in front of him.
"I am Ray Wiser." Orion also did the same.
Nathan looked at the two of them and announced the start of their battle. "Start!"
Rudy immediately activated the first form of the Three Divine Ways, and a crimson sphere materialized behind him, pulsating with a menacing energy.
Almost instantly, his hands began to be enveloped in layers of red feathers, spreading rapidly across his body. Within moments, Rudy had transformed into a monstrous figure, his entire form now covered in a thick armor of red feathers. His new form radiated an aura of immense power, each feathers gleaming with a dangerous edge.
From his back, a pair of jet-black wings unfurled, adding to the fearsome appearance, making him look like a creature born from nightmares.
If not for his face, which remained unchanged, he could easily be mistaken for a monstrous being rather than the warrior he was moments ago.
Orion was surprised too see such a talent that would let one transformed their bodies. He had seen curses before they weren't at the level as the one in front of him.
'I should also prepare.'
He took out a sword and also used the first form of the Three Divine Ways as a core started to float behind him. At the same time, he activated the curses of Berserk Body, Shattered Precision and Stormcaller in normal mode. Curse Mode would be too much for gold rank at the moment.
At this moment, Rudy flapped his wings and flew towards him like a raging wind.
Orion didn't move from his position and prepared take the attack head on.
Seeing Orion's intentions, Josh shook his head. "Ray is stupid. Strength and speed is Rudy's specially and he is just standing there waiting to be attacked."
"Well, not everyone is smart like you," Kiara laughed lightly.
Shuna also frowned deeply as she watched the unfolding scene. She had fought alongside Orion in numerous dungeon raids and had come to understand his fighting style well.
Orion was a master of wind manipulation, often using it to enhance his speed and agility in battle. His quick movements and swift strikes were what made him such a formidable opponent, especially when he danced around his enemies, making it nearly impossible for them to land a hit.
But now, watching him stand still, preparing to take Rudy's attack head-on, Shuna couldn't help but feel a pang of concern.
"What is he thinking?" she murmured to herself, her brow furrowing even more. Orion's decision seemed reckless—almost foolish.
Rudy's strength was nothing to scoff at; his monstrous form was designed for brutal, overwhelming power, and speed was supposed to be Orion's key advantage in countering such an opponent.
As she thought, feeling anxious for Orion, Rudy swiftly arrived in front of Orion at the moment and punched hard.
Orion, standing firm with his sword raised, prepared to intercept the powerful punch. The moment Rudy's fist connected with Orion's sword, the sound of the impact reverberated through the combat hall.
The sheer force behind Rudy's punch was undeniable, and it pushed him back several steps, his foot scraping against the ground as he struggled to maintain his footing.
His hand was trembling as he gripped his sword tightly, his face looked solemn as he looked at Rudy.
"Told you, it's useless to block Rudy's attack. Either he should have dodged or counterattack." Josh shook his head thinking Orion was doomed.
"I think he won't last long against Rudy. Look at his, his hand is trembling from Rudy's attack. If he takes more of his attacks, he will surely be defeated." Kiara commented at the moment.
"Or maybe we will see a miracle." Reilly added in the end.
"Miracle? I highly doubt that." Josh sneered.
"I agree with you on this but there is something about this guy I just can't put a hand on..." Reilly said, pondering.
"You just think too much." Josh shook his head and focused on the battle when he saw that Rudy was about to attack again.

Seeing that Rudy was about to attack again, Orion immediately used the curse of Stormcaller. Raging wind began to release from Orion's body in all directions. It was like Orion had became a centre of storm and was brewing the entire storm himself.
Erza who had been focusing on Orion's battle the whole had her eyes narrowed when she saw the uncontrollable and raging wind released from Orion. She could tell that he had never used this much strength of his wind ever before in the dungeon and understood the this was the strength Orion had been hiding all this time.
At this moment, Rudy flew again and moved towards him. Seeing that Orion prepared to attack.
With a decisive swing of his sword, Orion harnessed the full might of the Stormcaller curse. The blade cut through the storm, directing a massive wave of wind towards Rudy. The sheer force of the gust was immense, churning and howling as it surged from Orion's sword.
Rudy, still in mid-flight and struggling against the powerful wind, was caught off guard by the sudden and overwhelming surge. The wave of wind struck him with tremendous force, pushing him back and sending him spiraling through the air. His monstrous wings flapped wildly in a desperate attempt to stabilize himself, but the force of the wind was too great.
Seizing this opportunity, Orion using the wind flew towards Rudy high in the air. Rudy at this moment had barely stabilize himself with his wings when saw Orion flying towards him. Noticing that he immediately extended his wings and hands towards Orion.
And from his wings and hands released hundreds of feathers. These feathers were fast like bullet and flew towards Orion like bolts of red and black lightning.
Orion gave a smirked when he saw that and once again waved his sword. The attack again release a wave of wind towards the incoming feathers and these feathers were all blown away by Orion's wind.
"Attacking me with flying attack is useless." Orion said with a sneer and continued to fly towards Rudy.
Rudy seeing his feathers were useless against Orion didn't frown. He seemed to have expected that.
"It's done."
He muttered. At the same time, the red feathers all around his hand seemed to be flying out and materialized in form of a red spear. But it wasn't any spear. At the end of the spear, one could notice two small wings flapping continuously.
"Come."
Holding this spear, he looked down at Orion who was flying towards him at top speed.
Orion smiled when he that and a moment later arrived in front of Rudy and swung his sword again. This time, he focused all the wind's energy into the edge of the blade, gathering it into a concentrated, formidable force.
The sword trembled in his hands, the bluish-white aura around its edges intensifying. The air around the blade shimmered with raw power, indicating the precision and potency of his attack.
Rudy also attacked this time and thrusting his spear towards Orion but as he thrust his spear towards Orion, the tip of the weapon began to shimmer with an intense, spiraling vortex of red and black feathers. The feathers swirled around the spear, forming a deadly spiral that launched toward Orion with fierce, concentrated energy.
