He felt a burning kick to his cheek. His mind blanked out for a moment and the next thing he knew he was crashing on the ocean below.
Ved stayed there for a few seconds. He couldn't even see Vermillion move, the difference in speed speed was way too high.
He looked up and his eye met two cruel red orbs. Vermillion's face was cold but beneath the coldness Ved could see the cruel glee.
The more he looked at this man the more familiar he became but he still failed to make a connection with anybody in his memories.
Ved contemplated running away but then remembered this body was merely an avatar, even if it died, he still had three more in reserve.
That made him more confident. He jumped out of the water and lunged at Vermilion. However Vermillion's body flickered and disappeared right before his eyes.
Then he appeared above Ved and dropped an axe kick to his back. Ved felt his scales crack and his spine shattered.
