Chapter 21 — You Need Me!
".. I have no idea what you are talking about. If this is just another attempt to bully me, then don't bother masking your intentions." Henri retorted in a completely neutral manner. Although the other party's sudden show of power took him completely by surprise, Henri was quick to place his emotions in check. "Haha. That is just exactly it. Your completely calmness is unsettling." Harry Smith let out a chuckle. However despite the smile across his lips, the cold glint in his eyes betrayed his true intentions. "I have been observing you. Despite Caesar 's antics, you never once begged for mercy. No. You instead endured while maintaining that calm temperament of yours. You remind me of a crouching tiger, patiently bidding it's time to pounce.." taking a momentary pause, the smile on Harry Smith's lips immediately vanished. "Speak up. What are your true intentions?!" "I am just a weak Healer who was captured against my will." Henri felt the crushing pressure noticeably lessen,
Chapter 22 — Arriving At The End Point Pt1
[That was very gutsy of you mortal. Although my methods might've been suicidal, you are not as pathetic as I imagined you to be.] Henri chuckled when he heard this snid remark from Lilith. With his feet moving across what appeared to be a muddy landscape whose earth was brown red in color, Henri was currently occupying the rear end. Ahead of him was Harry Smith and the rest of the Raiders from the Red Jaguar Party. Appearing like he suddenly sensed something, Harry Smith suddenly looked over his shoulders, shooting Henri a sharp glare. With a small but weak grimace spreading across his lips, Henri reciprocated. However, the staring contest only landed briefly before Harry Smith eventually retracted his gaze. 'be careful now. It almost sounds like the great mother of all demon, admires a useless and foolish mortal.' through their telepathic communication link, Henri bemused in what sounded like a mixture of smugness and sarcasm. [Hmph. Your performance was barely so - so. It appe
Chapter 23 — Arriving At The End Point Pt2
Unlike the rest of the Raiders who immediately drew distance between themselves and Harry Smith due to his sudden and unexpected suicidal - like actions, Dagon the Captain of the Red Jaguar Party was the only one who calmly remained unmoved. Dagon was a man with a powerful innate presence and despite appearing like someone in their mid forties, he possessed a muscular build that would put most athletes in their twenties to shame. Tearing his gaze off the large river in front of them, he calmly skimmed through the contents of the antique - looking scroll he was holding. "The both of you are right. If this River was indeed the result of a matrix formation, it wouldn't have been included in the map's topography." Dagon calmly began. "according to the map, this is the Buklyn River and it is the divide that separates us from our target." Inhaling sharply, Dagon added in what sounded like a cautious warning. "Things are going to get dangerous starting from here on out--" Boom! Dagon's
Chapter 24 — The Divine Embryo Pt1
Spirit Gun! Located at the middle of the second White Face Devil's curved horn, a dense concentration of death Qi began to gradually take form. Possessing the shape of a chicken egg but the size of a ping pong ball, the spirit gun attack released a resplendent burst of silver colored light from its outer shell, following its emergence. Boom! With the horns of the White Face Devil suddenly stiffening, the Spirit Gun attack was hurled forward like a pebble released from the strings of a catapult. Naturally, it's aim was set towards the direction of the female Weapon Master. Still unable to overcome the horror she was currently falling prey to, and the fact that there was less then a distance of ten meters separating the both of them, it was very unlikely the Weapon Master would be able to put up even a flimsy layer of defense — trying to evade was also outside of a plausible possibility! [Won't you help her?] 'we don't share a close relationship. Why should I risk blowing up m
Chapter 25 — Where Is The Healer?!
Following the sudden and unexpected emergence of the nine White Face Devils, three of them simultaneously executed a Spirit Gun attack. Compared to the execution speed of the White Face Devil from earlier, the speed at which the three new White Face Devils released their Spirit Gun attacks was triple fold! "We need to retreat!" Barely after this warning sounded, a shrill and pained scream echoed shortly after. Fortunately, many of the Raiders had been able to swiftly react to Dagon's warning. However, a particular someone ended up not being so lucky. "M--My arm! My arm! it hurts!" Blue Caesar was currently howling like a wounded wolf while he struggled to limp away from the nine Cursed Spectres that had suddenly made their appearance. Although he managed to evade getting hit by the full brunt of one of the three Spirit Gun attacks, a wisp of the attack's residue Death Qi ended up latching onto his left arm — this happened a few seconds before he successfully retreated away from
Chapter 26 — Emergency System Function; Self - Sustainance
—[The Host is currently submerged 100 ft under water]—[System Function; True Vision has been activated!] Trying to utmost to hold his breath, Henri continued diving even deeper. Utilizing the True Vision system function, he was able to see his subterranean environment in perfect clarity. 'i'm currently a hundred feet under water and still I haven't found the river bed. Just how deep does this go?' Henri was flabbergasted to say the least. However at the same time, a feeling of excitement welled up within him. The more mysterious this water body appeared to be, the more he felt he had made the right decision. Earlier when the nine White Face Devils emerged from the river, Henri had noticed an oddity ; the smallest White Face Devil was roughly about twelve metres in length. From a single glance, the river didn't appear to possess much depths. Even if the River was vast, the massive sizes of the White Face Devils would've caused some ripples to appear across the surface of the wate
Chapter 27 — Free Fall
"I see.." after receiving the notification from the system that explained how Zero Interaction worked, Henri quickly discovered that he was perfectly capable of speech, despite the fact that he was currently nearly three hundred ft under water. "The System continues to surprise me still.. " with his body shrouded underneath the rainbow colored halo, Henri discovered that he felt completely dry — despite being submerged in the river, it was like he was on dry land. First it was True Vision special function and now this — Henri was in complete awe over whoever created the system. "System. How many special functions do I currently posseses?" Henri was finally unable to control his curiosity. From his rough calculations, it had to be about a handful. However Henri still wanted to be sure, just in case. After all just a few moments ago, he had been completely oblivious about the existence of the Self Sustainance emergency system function. 'hm?' although Henri received a response not
Chapter 28 — Ragnarok Energy
By the time Henri managed to react to the free fall, it was already a tad bit too late. Kicking off a small gust of dust, he crashed down on his back. "Where am I?" despite the unsavoury descent, Henri easily picked himself up. Due to his continuous level - ups, the durability of his physique was so tough that he was able to easily survive the crash that would have easily paralyzed a regular human. Although he didn't end up receiving any damage points notification, Henri clearly felt a slight ache coming from the area of his back he directly landed on the ground with. At the same time, he finally had the opportunity to observe his current surrounding. "What is this place?" scanning his eyes around his current surroundings, Henri was flabbergasted to say the least. The first oddity he noticed was the fact that he was currently standing atop a mountain ridge that was both narrow and steep. A single misstep and he would end up falling right into the deep chasm below him. That wa
Chapter 29 — The Divine Embryo Pt2
The chasm was far more deeper than Henri anticipated. It took him roughly five minutes of free - fall before he eventually felt his feet make contact with solid ground. Considering the entire area was brimming with the multi colored miasma, all forms of sensory observation were completely shut down. Fortunately, Henri wasn't completely helpless. Using True Vision, he was able to see through the miasma around him. However even with True Vision, Henri was only able to see a couple meters ahead. ~~ Human!! 'hm?' Henri suddenly felt a chill. Making a sharp twirl, the first thing he noticed was a pair of crimson colored eyes staring straight at him. Despite the owner of the eyes perfectly shrouded in the miasma, Henri's attention was completely transfixed on the crimson colored eyes. There was no malevolence within them. There was no sinister intents. No, the eyes merely held a strong and powerful desire — a desire to feed. ~~ Human!! This time, the voice calling out sounded wa
Chapter 30 — Abyssal Blaze Color Silver
Boom! Following the sound of a massive thunderclap going off, Henri was forced to tilt his gaze upward. Staring towards the multicolored firmament above him, Henri soon noticed that the entirety of the sky was wrought with activity. Like eels in a river, thick bolts of red and purple lightning continuously kept thrashing about. The sheer presence emanating from a single bolt was enough to force a slight shudder down the hearts of all who witnessed it — Henri was no exception. 'what is going on?' in under the short span of a minute, Henri managed to count at least a dozen thunder bolts in the skies. This numerical figure developed a disturbance in his heart. [Those are Heavenly Tribulation Lightning.] Henri immediately frowned. Although Lilith tried her best to conceal it, Hebei managed to glean out traces of surprise laced in her voice when she mentioned Heavenly Tribulation Lightning. Conjuring two orbs of red flames simultaneously, Henri hurled them forward for the last time.A
