Chapter 119: Keith vs Lady Spay

Keith faces off against Lady Spay on the rooftop of the hotel.

“I will destroy you!” Keith shouts.

Keith opens a portal and steps into it. He emerges from another portal directly above Lady Spay, twisting his body midair and delivering a downward swinging kick. Lady Spay blocks it with her arm and counters with a punch, hitting with enough force to push him back.

She moves quickly, appearing behind him, grabbing hold, and slamming him into the rooftop floor.

“This is already over!” Lady Spay declares.

“Not quite!” Keith exclaims.

Multiple portals open above them, energy beams firing downward. Lady Spay leaps out of the way, but the distraction gives Keith time to get back on his feet.

“Damn spider,” Keith mutters.

He suppresses his human appearance, shifting into his demon form. His power surges.

Lady Spay smirks. “You really thought you would stand a chance without going full power? Despicable.”

Keith grits his teeth and charges forward. “I’ll wipe that smirk right off your face!”

Just before reaching her, he vanishes into a portal and reappears behind her, driving a punch into her back.

“Gahh!” Lady Spay groans in pain.

She leaps forward, spins around, and unleashes a powerful web-like beam from her mouth. Keith dives through a portal to evade it.

He reappears behind her again, but this time she’s ready. A web shoots out, wrapping around him and pinning him in place.

“The same trick won’t work twice,” Lady Spay says coldly.

More portals open overhead, energy beams firing again. Lady Spay launches another web, catching one of the beams while dodging some and taking the hits from others. She then slams the captured beam down into Keith, blasting him, but also freeing him from the web.

They stand facing each other, both visibly damaged and breathing heavily.

“I think I finally have you figured out,” Lady Spay says. “You have to set these portals up beforehand, don’t you?”

Keith’s expression tightens, clenching his teeth.

“Yes, that’s the look,” Lady Spay continues. “If you could simply teleport anywhere, you would do more hit-and-run attacks. You also would have escaped my web. Your Portal Magic is interesting, but very limited in real combat once it’s been figured out.”

She charges and leaps forward. Keith fires a barrage of magic blasts. She tanks through them, lands, and tackles Keith, pushing them both off the rooftop. Both crash down into the street below.

“Hmhmhm,” Lady Spay hums. “Now you won’t be able to make your portals without me knowing.”

“I’ll still kill you!” Keith roars.

Keith rushes forward, his rage increasing. Lady Spay stands ready. As Keith closes in, they both begin rapidly punching each other. Both land hits equally.

“By the time this is over, I’m going to smash your face in!” Keith shouts.

“You first!” Lady Spay shouts back.

She grabs his head and slams his face into a car window. Glass shatters, slicing into his skin.

“Ahh!” Keith cries out.

She yanks him free as she taunts him. “What’s the matter? I thought you were going to smash my face in?”

She drives three punches into his gut, then throws a punch into his face, knocking him backward. As he lands, he sees her mouth glowing. A powerful web-like energy blast erupts toward him. He has no time to dodge.

The blast hits him directly, tearing through his skin and opening up wounds all over his body.

“Gaaaaaaahhhhh!!!!”

Keith staggers, bleeding heavily, but forces himself back to his feet.

“Your battle skills leave a lot to be desired,” Lady Spay says with a victorious smirk.

“Damn…” Keith mutters.

Lady Spay has figured out how Keith’s magic works, leaving him in serious trouble.
