Chapter 25: Reuniting With Old Friends (3)
Kalon still continued moving forward. Lyric would not wake up for the next 5 hours.
He no longer wasted time. He rushed and met Kael's attack directly.
Boom!
It was like Heaven and Earth had collided, but Kalon did not move a single step back, while Kael was pushed back a hundred steps. Ravel saw that Kael was at a disadvantage. Although he was astonished, he stepped forward to attack Kalon.
"Burning Fury!" Ravel shouted, and his weapon ignited with fire.
Aaaaaa!!
"Are you in some Xianxia novel, that you have to shout the name of your skills and shout when you are attacking me?" Kalon had already broken free from the Light Cubes that had covered his body. He no longer played around. Although his opponents were weaker, his every second here made his meeting with Urek Mazino delayed.
Ravel, wielding a halberd crackling with flame energy, swung it directly, targeting his neck.
Kalon calmly redirected his attack with one hand behind his hips and with the other hand, like a weapon master.
Kalon stepped on the burning halberd crackling with flame energy and punched Ravel on the cheek. From behind, Kael had thrown the spear.
"Are you trying to kill your friend here?" Kalon dodged without even turning around while Ravel was sent flying far away. So he was also not injured.
Kalon grabbed the shaft of the spear and redirected it back towards Kael. Kael had thrown the spear with all his strength, and he was running out of stamina.
Swoosh!
Kael heard the loud sound coming from in front of him, just like when he threw the spear towards Kalon but with more intensity. Kael looked up, his eyes looking at the incoming spear. The same spear that had accompanied him throughout his journey was now coming to take his life. He closed his eyes out of fear, but when waiting for a while and feeling no pain, he opened his eyes and saw that the spear was stuck between the barrier almost a centimeter away from his forehead.
It was Eshara who, in time, had made up a barrier to stop the spear. But even her barrier failed to stop it fully. She shivered and looked towards Kalon, who was looking towards their captain, Mirae.
"If you defeat me, our team will forfeit," Mirae offered Kalon a deal. But Kalon said, "Look around, child. Your team was not even able to touch a hair on me, and you still think I need a deal to win? Do not waste time, and you three come together and attack me."
"You—" Mirae gritted her teeth. She had never been looked down upon by someone so brutally.
"This child will show you your place." Mirae left her position like a slingshot, with the ground cracking below her feet. A glowing Shinsu needle strapped to her back was coming towards him.
Kalon also moved. He no longer used Light Cubes, as they were less efficient than his hand.
Slap—
He slapped the little girl with the black needle. The force was enough to deform her face for a second. She too was sent flying. Next, Kalon took the Light Cubes and trapped Eshara, while Kael was too scared to even move.
"Instructor, did I win?" Kalon turned towards the instructor, who was standing in the far corner of the chamber. The instructor had a multitude of expressions. According to the data he had, Kalon was a Light-Bearer. Although having such strength was not uncommon, mostly Rankers and High Rankers had such strength.
"Y-yes, you can go to the 21st Floor now."
"Thank you." He nodded his head towards the instructor and vanished from his spot.
...
21st Floor.
The Twenty-First Floor of the Tower is also known as the "White Cichlid" Floor. This floor was owned by the Yeon Family. The floor's name is "Cichlid," which is also the sobriquet of Yeon Yirang, the head of the Yeon Family.
Kalon had arrived in the residential area. But it was huge, and finding Ja Wangnan in this massive place was not easy.
He was staying in a simple building he had found, as his wallet had become slim after paying the hefty fee for retaking the test on the 20th Floor. Now, he could only afford a one-bedroom apartment.
"System," he murmured, his voice steady, "guide me. Help me use my soul to increase my resonance with Shinsu."
[Affirmative. Initiating Soul Resonance Protocol.]
The space around him began to shift, the Shinsu condensing into dense streams that spiraled and danced around his form. Each thread of energy seemed drawn to the pulse of his soul, amplifying and echoing its rhythm.
"Focus on your soul," the System's voice reverberated in his mind. "Let it synchronize with the flow of Shinsu. You must not control it. You must become one with it."
He repeated the steps he had used in the System Space to become an irregular.
[Error... Error...]
[XXX Entity has intervened. Host is being summoned.]
Kalon knew that something like this could happen, but the word 'Entity' attracted his attention. The System had only ever used the word Entity for the System creator. Now, who was this new person that caused the System to malfunction?
Kalon kept his eyes closed. He did not dare to even open them and look where he had been summoned to.
"You are the soul that has been placed into our world by the God of Earth, Cotia," the being said calmly, but the voice made his soul shiver as if his very being was being cracked.
"Cotia has already breached the contract among the Gods by placing you in the battlefield of Myriad Gods and giving you a Light Fragment. Do not try to become an irregular. Be content with what you are given, you insignificant soul." Crack marks had covered his soul; it was like he would vanish at any second now. Kalon was unable to do anything, as his willpower and physique were all of no use in this place.
This made him more aware of how vulnerable he was.
"Then, why was I even brought here in this place?" Kalon just thought, and it turned into words.
The being heard Kalon's words but did not really care. If it could forcibly bring him here, it could also wipe him from existence.
Aaaaaah!!!
The space behind him cracked, and Kalon was sucked inside.
