Capítulo 38: Clown

[Chapter 37 Comment]

[Seby_Spina: Sorry and that there was no teo comment but still nice show, And maybe some of my peers started threading chapters you can take that as a afk (away from keyboard).]

[Twin_dragon13773: I was busy, so I couldn't comment in time. Apologies Sir Theo, I still have not seen any proof of a more dangerous entity yet.]

[Adam_Balch_7324: It seems that your students are progressing]

Theo looked at the comments and smiled. "Ahaha, sorry if I made it look that way. I know that you guys have your own lives on the other side. I was just making random excuses to beat this guy. But thanks for caring."

While Theo was replying to the comments, the situation on Li Wei's side underwent a drastic change.

"Huh?" Li Wei trembled as he saw the giant.

By pouring his own essence, the king actually completed the giant within seconds. It seemed like he was willing to sacrifice his own life just to kill Li Wei and the others. And the moment the giant was completed, the excess essence suddenly erupted, causing a shockwave that shook the area.

"!!!" Nana covered her eyes to avoid getting dust in them. At the same time, she tried to make sense of what was happening. However, when the shockwave subsided, she saw the completed giant.

"Hii..." Nana let out a shriek. The sheer amount of essence emanating from the giant was enough to make her shudder. As an exorcist, she could feel the malevolence contained within the black essence. The giant was not just made of pure essence; it contained numerous souls and their resentment.

"So, this is Nomon, the Giant of Death." Nana trembled in fear. The skeletons that had been summoned earlier had been recalled to complete the giant, but she couldn't help but fall to her knees.

"Miss Nana?" Oliver hurriedly checked on her.

"This is not good... That giant... that giant..." Nana shivered in fear as she tried to convey something to him.

"Is it a Noble Rank Supernatural Being?"

"Y-yes." Nana nodded. It was clear that she was terrified, but Oliver couldn't pinpoint the source of her fear.

Oliver gulped and turned around. "Teacher. What should we—? Teacher?"

He tried to locate Theo, but the latter was nowhere to be found. On one hand, it was easy to think that Theo had abandoned them. On the other hand, with Theo's strength, he should have the ability to contain the giant. After all, he had remained calm throughout the ordeal.

But Oliver couldn't help but wonder where Theo had gone.

Maya, on the other hand, felt a similar sensation to what Nana had experienced. She could sense the danger emanating from the giant's body, but she didn't realize it was the resentment of the souls contained within the essence.

"What is going on?" Maya frowned as she aimed at the giant. Since the skeletons around her had returned to the earth, she took aim at the giant to shoot him down.

Bang!

A series of gunshots echoed as the high-caliber bullets hit the giant's body. Yet, the bullets penetrated the giant's body as if it were transparent.

"Huh?" Maya widened her eyes in confusion, but all of a sudden, the giant raised its right hand. The black essence formed a red-colored sword.

"Not good." Maya could see her death if she didn't dodge it. She threw herself to the side to avoid the sword, and it turned out to be the best decision she could have made. When the sword struck the ground, the red-colored essence ran through the ground and emitted a radiant glow. The strike was so powerful that it cracked the ground open, and the red light made it appear as if the gates of hell had opened.

The sword mark stretched for over a hundred meters, leaving them questioning if they could even defeat such a monstrous creature.

Despite witnessing such a display of force, there was still one person who continued to fight. Since the giant had been summoned by someone, Li Wei believed that the giant would disappear as long as he killed the king.

"Die!" Li Wei approached the king and swung his sword. But suddenly, the king's subordinates sacrificed their lives. Even without their essence, the two subordinates managed to restrain Li Wei with their bodies.

"!!!" Li Wei could see the king raising his sword, seemingly planning to strike down Li Wei along with his subordinates. Realizing the huge mistake his inexperience had caused, Li Wei didn't plan to make the same mistake again.

"You may curse me in the afterworld." Li Wei gritted his teeth and swiftly severed the heads of the two subordinates with a single slash. With this, Li Wei had the opportunity to make another swing and block the king's attack.

"Hoh?" The king didn't appear sad despite witnessing his subordinates' deaths.

"You..." Li Wei glared at him, filled with the desire to tear him apart. But the king actually leaped into the giant.

The black essence gradually enveloped the king's body before absorbing him within. Soon, the king's voice echoed from inside.

"It's a shame that I won't have my real body to rule over this world. But I will make this world filled with death."

It seemed that he had merged with the giant. Li Wei watched as the giant turned around, preparing to strike him down.

"..." Li Wei could have evaded the attack, but the devastation this giant could unleash would be unimaginable. It must not reach the city. However, he didn't believe he was strong enough to stop the giant.

"What can I do? Is this the limit of my abilities?" Li Wei felt helpless. He may not have been the best in his class, but he had always been the most consistent. Even when Serena fell into despair, Li Wei would be the last one standing.

That was why the feeling of helplessness made Li Wei want to train relentlessly, to the point where he would never have to experience this powerlessness again.

As the giant swung its sword down, Li Wei had no choice but to leap to the side, narrowly avoiding the attack. But suddenly, numerous chains emerged from the ground. Each chain was as massive as the anchor chains of a giant ship.

They soared into the air and encircled the giant's body and limbs.

"!!!" Li Wei's body trembled. There was only one person who could do something like this. "Te—"

Before he could finish his sentence, Theo's hand had already reached Li Wei's head as he patted him. "Hahaha. This is what I want to teach all of you the most—the feeling of helplessness. I believe that you can overcome this feeling."

"Teacher..." Li Wei took a deep breath, calming his heart. Even though he wanted to stay and help Theo, Li Wei knew his limits and asked, "What should I do?"

His wit brought a smile to Theo's face. "Protect your classmates."

"I understand." It was a shame that he couldn't directly participate, but Li Wei knew his role. He hurriedly moved to the side, positioning himself to defend Maya, Oliver, and Nana.

Meanwhile, the giant looked down on Theo and taunted, "Do you think you can defeat me again? You have forced me to fuse with the giant instead of controlling it as my pawn. I'll make sure to kill you brutally."

"Is that so? Do you think you can?" Theo smiled.

"Do you think I can't?" The giant stomped the ground, causing cracks to form. It emitted an intense wave of essence that sent shivers down one's spine.

However, Theo's expression remained unchanged. He calmly stated, "Of course, you can't. After all, you haven't escaped the carnival."

Suddenly, fences began to rise from the ground. This time, the fences were taller to match the giant's size.

"Even these chains won't be able to restrain me, let alone all the trickery you used earlier." The giant released another wave of energy and covered the chains with its black essence. The essence, infused with resentment, corroded the chains and eventually destroyed them.

It appeared that the giant could hold its own against Theo. But once again, Theo said, "Yeah, yeah. You don't know because you haven't seen it in your era. But a carnival won't be complete without the clown."

Bam!

As soon as Theo uttered those words, two giant hands emerged from the hole that the king had created earlier. The hands opened the ground as they pulled up a body.

A massive humanoid figure stood upright. Its size matched that of Nomon, but its appearance resembled that of a clown.

The clown had rainbow curly hair, a big red nose, and a face adorned with thick makeup. Its shirt was white, adorned with polka dots, and paired with yellow silk pants.

Theo's Toon Carnival was a place of massacre, yet the clown he had summoned wore a bright smile, as if it was trying to cheer up a child. There was nothing scary about this clown.

"Huh?" The king felt as if Theo was mocking him. "How long do you plan to continue making a mockery of me? Unforgivable."

Nomon attempted to slash the giant clown in half, but the giant clown suddenly reached for something on its back. When it revealed its hands, it threw three bowling pins into the air and began juggling them.

At first glance, it seemed unremarkable, but when Nomon's sword was about to strike, the clown swiftly grabbed one of the pins and struck the sword. It was a light blow, but the clash unleashed a burst of essence that caused the ground to tremble.

"!!!" The king was shocked, never expecting this kind of power from the clown.

However, Theo didn't stop there. Due to the shockwave caused by the essence, the remaining two bowling pins ended up floating as if weightless.

Both of them dropped onto Nomon's shoulders, and surprisingly, as they landed, Nomon fell to its knees.

"Hrhh?!" The king could feel the intense weight on his shoulders. It should have been impossible for the pins to have any weight, yet that was exactly what he felt.

The clown smiled brightly. With Nomon on its knees, the sword had also fallen to the ground. The clown seized the opportunity and delivered a strike to the head with the bowling pin.

Bang!

The impact was like that of a heavy bowling pin. It started with a light touch, but once it connected, the power contained within it shattered the head and sent it crashing to the ground.

The king was completely overwhelmed by Theo's tactics.

The clown looked around and even winked at Li Wei and the others. It clapped its hands, as if requesting applause for its performance.
