It wasn’t fatal, but the intensity of it shattered his composure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He steadied himself and looked back at Rachel, eyes wide. \"What the hell was that? How can your attack affect me now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel smirked, appearing instantly in front of him. \"Because I’ve evolved into a god... So let me teach you a lesson.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Love Kick]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her leg lashed out, striking his side. The blow sent him hurtling sideways as a cry of pain tore from his throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"AARRGGHH...! How can this be...? I... I am a perfect chimera... There’s no way your attacks should work!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel’s grin widened. \"Didn’t I just tell you? I’m a god now. And no matter how ’perfect’ you are... you’re still just a chimera.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heinkel roared in fury. Black and white energy erupted around him, growing thicker and more violent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No... no... I am the perfect chimera! I can’t lose here!\" His voice trembled with rage and desperation. \"I’ll show you just how great I am!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He surged forward. In his hand, black-and-white energy condensed, forming thin, razor-edged fangs that extended along his fingers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Eclipse Fang Manifestation]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a feral snarl, he slashed at her, but Rachel reacted instantly. She caught his claw mid-strike, stopping it cold with a firm grip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel was no ordinary fighter. As a God Gym divine trainer, she had been taught countless combat techniques by Garion himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Against her refined skill and discipline, Heinkel’s reliance on raw chimera power alone put him at a clear disadvantage in close combat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel met his gaze and smirked. \"Is this all you can do, Heinkel? I expected more from the ’perfect chimera.’\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could respond, she clenched her free hand forward, delivering the same precise punch as before... straight into his stomach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The impact forced the air from his lungs. Heinkel coughed violently as his body folded, dropping to his knees while he gasped for breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he was still theperfect chimera.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A low growl escaped him as the energy around his claw shifted once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black-and-white aura twisted, condensing into something denser and more volatile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah... you’re better than me in hand-to-hand combat,\" he rasped, lifting his head with a defiant glare. \"But do you really think this is all I have?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Equinox Dragon Break]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The technique surged through his arm, designed to destabilize an opponent’s internal energy structure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thrust his claw forward, brushing it against Dahlia. \"Now... take this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia’s expression tightened. For a brief moment, her energy flow wavered, distorted by the contact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even her body felt slightly off, as though something within her had been shaken out of alignment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, she didn’t let go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her grip tightened around his claw, anchoring him in place. She steadied her breathing, forcing her energy back under control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not bad,\" she said coolly. \"You managed to disrupt me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes sharpened. \"But do you really think that’s enough?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She leaned in slightly, unshaken. \"I’ve trained in far harsher conditions under Garion. You’ll need more than that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heinkel frowned, irritation flashing across his face. Then, slowly, a grin spread across his lips. \"Then how about this...?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Voidflare Dragon Pulse]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tilted his head back and opened his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black-and-white energy gathered at his throat, swirling violently as opposing forces fused together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The air around him trembled under the pressure, the unstable power building toward release.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel frowned. \"Damn... you even have a dragon breath technique?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She released her grip instantly and leapt back, putting distance between them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A heartbeat later, Heinkel unleashed it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A concentrated blast of black-and-white energy erupted from his mouth, tearing through the space where she had just stood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The beam carved a jagged path forward, but Rachel twisted aside at the last moment, narrowly avoiding the attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She landed lightly and glanced back at him, exhaling. \"Damn... you’re not an easy one.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heinkel straightened, a dark grin forming. \"Of course I’m not.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes burned with fury. \"And now I’ll make you pay for what you’ve done to me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He spread both arms wide, then slashed forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Twilight Scale Sever]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment his hands cut through the air, the scales across his body flared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black-and-white energy spilled from them, fusing into razor-thin arcs that shot toward Rachel like blades.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel shifted her stance and dodged, weaving between the attacks, but one of the arcs sliced through a strand of her hair as it passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She paused, touching the severed ends, a hint of surprise crossing her face. \"Wow... that’s sharp.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just shut up and disappear!\" Heinkel roared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He launched another barrage, the cutting waves multiplying as they streaked toward her from multiple angles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel didn’t move this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, she smirked. \"Do you really think this is enough to defeat me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She drew in a breath and focused her energy into her arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the attacks reached her, she caught one of the energy blades barehanded and crushed it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rest shattered against her reinforced aura, dissipating into nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heinkel’s eyes widened. \"How... how is that possible...?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel simply smiled, a soft, confident laugh escaping her lips. \"Hehe... now it’s my turn.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She drew both hands back. A soft pink glow began to gather between her palms, condensing into a pulsing sphere of energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heinkel frowned. \"What are you doing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel’s smile widened slightly. \"Of course... the same as you. I’m unleashing my energy blast.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heinkel clicked his tongue, irritation flashing across his face. \"Damn it... then I’ll finish you with my ultimate strike.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He seized his right claw with his left, channeling every ounce of his energy into it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dark and light intertwined, spiraling together as his power surged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His right claw began to glow, black and white energy crackling violently around it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a roar, Heinkel raised his arm and thrust it forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Duality Collapse Strike]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A heartbeat later, Rachel moved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just before releasing her attack, she stepped slightly to the side.
