”If you had beheaded me right then…then you would have lost your head as well.”
When the man spoke, Evan raised his left hand and touched his neck, feeling a cut from which blood poured continuously.
Evan had powerful regeneration abilities thanks to his strong vitality, strong enough to heal such a cut.
Yet, the wound did not heal.
‘This…it’s the ignore durability and regeneration negation of Mesarthim and my Destruction Essence…’
The same combo of powers that Evan had intended to use in beheading the man before him.
“Surprised, aren’t you?
You’re probably wondering why you have a cut on your neck despite being the one who attacked.
Don’t worry, I’m in a good mood so I’ll tell you the answer!”
The man’s lips curled up into a sadistic grin as he revealed his power.
“It’s because you and I are now Fully Synchronized by my Unique Skill. Only I can undo it.
Whatever is done to me, would be done to you and vice versa.
Every wound you deal to me would be dealt to you. Every buff you receive, I receive it as well. And if you were to kill me…”
The man let the sentence hang, moving his fingers and drawing it across his neck as he laughed loudly.
More Demonic Hand members appeared, and when they saw both the man and Evan bearing similar wounds on their necks, they instantly realised what he had done.
Just then, spears of blue lightning rained down from above, piercing through their hastily made barriers and wounding them all with its divine light.
Laurene appeared in the sky, wielding Venus with her left hand and a quartet of Tier 3 Magic circles swirling before her right.
With a surge of power, she unleashed a searing beam of lightning, obliterating half of the nearby Demonic Hand members and leaving only scorched imprints of their feet behind.
The girl then jumped to the ground and landed beside Evan, narrowing her eyes as she asked.
“Why is my skill now considering this guy to be an ‘Ally’?”
Laurene had noticed the instant Evan and this unnamed Demonic Hand Senior Member of the Sixth Division had been synchronized as her Aura of Valour skill suddenly started buffing one more person.
As such, she rushed in that direction and saw Evan facing off against him, silently switching off her skill at that moment.
“Aww, why don’t you share your buffs with me, princess?”
Laurene barely held back her urge to unleash Nuclear Magic on the man when she heard his sickening voice, instead focusing her Mystic Eyes on him to analyse him.
She saw threads of energy that connected his and Evan’s vitals, their energy cores, and even portions of their energy circuits.
Another thing she noticed, was that the man had some sort of spatial perception covering the area around them, and she attributed this to how he could know where they were despite having no eyes to see.
“What’s wrong? Cat got your tongue?
I heard you like talking smack, so why aren’t you saying anything huh?
Could it be you’re scared of death? Come on, I’m a villain and you’re a Hero, aren’t you? Heroes are supposed to give their lives to defeat the Villains like me, aren’t they?!
Go on, try to kill me!!
Maybe you can tell your princess friend to try it! Who knows, she may succeed…in killing the both of us, that is!!!!”
As the man continued his tirade, Evan maintained his silence. He raised his hand and summoned a golden chain. Seeing this, the man’s words flowed unabated.
“Chains? Do you want to restrain me? You’d only be restraining yourself too, you know?
Hmm? That tip looks spiked, doesn’t it? Perhaps…you want to torture me into releasing the synchronization?
Pfft, go on, I’m very used to pain. Besides, the thought of you going through the same agony is enough to keep me going strong!”
Laurene was a split second away from actually attacking him in annoyance when Evan dismissed the chain and looked around before activating a skill.
“Elemental Surge.”
A powerful wave of crimson gold lightning and icy energy surged in all directions, paralysing all the nearby Demonic Hand members and encasing them in layers of thick ice in an instant.
‘?!
That’s my skill, isn’t it? When did he take it?’
Laurene’s eyes widened as she recognized the magic signature of the skill Evan had just used, utterly flabbergasted as she hadn’t even noticed when Evan had mimicked it.
| Elemental Surge;
Type: Rare Skill
Elemental Surge is a rare skill that harnesses the elemental energies within the user, unleashing a powerful wave of elemental force in all directions.
Effect;
With precise control and mastery, the user can manipulate various elements, such as fire, lightning, ice, earth, and wind, to create devastating effects. By combining different elemental energies, the user can produce unique and synergistic effects, such as fiery explosions, electrified storms, icy blasts, or seismic tremors. |
The good part about Evan’s Mystic Eyes only needing 3 seconds to Mimic a skill meant he could take one’s skill in the middle of a seemingly normal conversation and they wouldn’t realise a thing!
Whether he noticed Laurene’s surprise or not, Evan stepped forward, closing the distance between him and the eyeless man as he spoke three words.
“Mesarthim; Yellow: Purge.”
“…
…?!”
The man was completely dumbfounded for a moment when Evan got close and said those three words, but in the next second, shock washed over him as he suddenly realised something.
‘Huh? Why are the y-positive coordinates of my spatial perception pointing at the ground? Why’s the x-negative pointing to the right instead of the left?
Why is everythingupside down?’
It took his brain two more seconds to compute the answer to that question, with the reality of the situation dawning on him.
‘Oh…it’s not that things turned upside down. I’m the one who’s upside down…’
Slowly, his spatial perception range began to reduce until the only thing within his range was now Evan whose hand was stretched out above his head.
‘…fucking monster…’
Those were the last thoughts he had before his spatial perception dimmed and he sunk into oblivion.
Laurene blinked and raised her hands to clean her eyes, just to make sure she was seeing properly.
One moment Evan’s body was engulfed by yellow flames and the next, the severed head of the unnamed Demonic Hand Senior member was flying through the air, spraying blood.
The Unforged Vale silently floated beside Evan, not a single drop of blood on its glowing black laser-like blade.
“Blessing of Destruction: 1st Activation.”
With BoD activated silently, Evan raised his left index finger and pointed it at the man’s chest as he condensed destruction essence around it.
“Vortex.”
**PUFF!!!
That subdued sound was all Laurene heard as the spiralling mass of energy completely obliterated the man’s body and soul from existence,completelydestroying the skill he had as well.
His head in Evan’s grip was also turned to ashes and the boy nodded to himself in affirmation when he saw a [Level Up] notification.
“Good. I’ve completely removed that Unique Skill from this planet.”
Turning around, he walked towards Laurene who was still staring at him dumbfounded, whispering in her ear as he passed by her.
“Be careful, there’s a Level 620 hiding somewhere in this place.”
With those words, he unfurled his wings and kicked off the ground, dashing into the sky where he grabbed the wings of two Demons fighting against David and slammed them against each other.
Left behind, Laurene glanced towards where Evan flew to, before returning her gaze to the gouged-out portion of the ground where the Demonic Hand executive once was.
“Evanreallyknows how to mess with someone’s confidence…”
◇◇◇
As Evan ripped out the wings of the two unfortunate demons, he kicked them towards David who gestured with his hand and created spears using the broken fragments of the buildings below them, sending the spears to stab the now one-winged demons.
Evan aided him, conjuring a plethora of weapons using his Elemental Weapon Projection and raining them down on the two unfortunate souls.
Impaled from above and below, it wouldn’t take long for the demons to slowly bleed out to death. Too bad, Evan wanted another level up soon so in the short moment David turned away to counter a spell from behind, Evan lopped off their heads.
David was riding a huge wave of sand and rocks like a surfer would ride a wave of water, and it was in this manner he moved around the Dimensional realm, destroying buildings and adding their broken fragments to his giant sand wave, making it even bigger and more powerful.
