Chapter 330 329: Ran Away

?"You're not dead Smile Reaper."

Although Fatty Black Bonez's words made it seem like he wanted Corey to be dead, the relief and happiness in his tone could not be overlooked.

"Of course I'm not dead Fatty. Do you think I'd choose to fight somebody I'm not confident in facing?"

Corey replied with a chuckle filled with nonchalance and a tinge of confidence.

Melissa and Triple X had surprised expressions upon hearing Corey's words. They took in Corey's appearance, and they noticed that aside from the blood stains. slight bruises and torn clothes on his body and face. Corey did not seem to have any other injury.

Not only that, they could see in Corey's hand a bloodied arm holding a sword with a red hilt.

They recognized the sword and the clothes on the arm. Both belonged to Dante, the only man who held a sword and dressed like modern martial artists.

Although they knew Corey was special since Divine recruited him when he was just a tier 0, they never expected him to be a monster.

Their minds could not even fathom how a tier 2 could survive a battle with a tier 4. Talk less about survival. They could not even fathom how a tier 2 could kill a tier 4 without sustaining any grievous injuries.

"Woah man. You killed that tier 4?"

Fatty Black Bonez walked towards Corey with wide eyes as he observed him like a rare and valuable specimen.

He slapped Corey's shoulder, and with a surprised tone, he spoke once again:

"You even killed him without getting a serious injury. You're really something else aren't you."

Fatty Black Bonez touched various parts of Corey's body, and just as he was about to touch the red sword out of pure curiosity, Corey quickly moved the sword away.

"Don't touch the sword. As long as the owner is still alive, the sword won't allow anybody else to touch it. It would release powerful fire elemental energies into your body, and your insides would melt."

Corey said, then he raised the sword slightly.

"This is why I'm not holding the sword but the arm of the tier 4."

All eyes landed on the sword for a second before a light of realization flashed in the eyes of Melissa, Triple X, and Fatty Black Bonez.

"As long as the owner is still alive?… The tier 4 isn't dead?"

Fatty Black Bonez asked with raised brows and a shocked tone.

His expression, and that of Triple X and Melissa's, was one to behold.

Killing a tier 4 as a tier 2 was already a feat that was already heaven-defying in his eyes.

But, cutting off the arm of a tier 4 was on another level in the eyes of Fatty Black Bonez, Triple X, and Melissa.

Cutting off the arm of a tier 4 and still coming back alive meant that the tier 4 did not dare fight back for his arm or pride.

Losing an arm could be considered an act of crippling, and regenerating an arm would require the ability of a very powerful and talented healer.

Having one's arm cut off is bad, but if they still have their arm with them, a good healer could still reconnect the arm.

And depending on the ability and talent of the healer, the arm could either become fully functional or not.

So, for Dante to not fight back for his arm and his precious sword especially meant Dante felt that he could lose his life or the price he would pay was not worth it.

How could Fatty Black Bonez, Melissa, and Triple X not be shocked when they realized this?

To them, it wasn't long ago when Corey was just a tier 0 weakling. But now, he was a tier 2 who could cause a tier 4 to run for his life and leave behind his arm.

"He's not dead. He ran away before I could kill him."

Corey replied with a shrug as he felt that it was rather unfortunate that he could not kill Dante.

Although he had the capability to kill a tier 4 on the same level as Dante, he could not prevent them from escaping.

He was not as fast as Dante, so he could not stop Dante from escaping. It was only with the use of Flash Step that Corey was able to cut off Dante's sword-wielding arm.

As for why Dante did not fight back for his precious sword and arm?

It was because of Soul Entropy and Painful Echo.

During the entire fight, Corey always used Soul Entropy and Painful Echo.

Soul Entropy shortened Dante's lifespan and reduced his mystic energy with every slash that Corey unleashed on him.

The reduction in Dante's lifespan was not much. In fact, to Corey, it was little, extremely little.

Corey was taking approximately 0.1% of Dante's lifespan whenever he successfully slashed a part of Dante.

0.1% might seem like a lot to some, but one should not forget that the number of times he was able to successfully slash Dante was not much.

Dante was physically stronger and faster than him, so the number of successful slashes he landed on Dante was not much at all.

But, despite this thought that Corey had, Dante did not take the skill, Soul Entropy lightly. Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by ɴovᴇlꜰɪre.ɴet

The mere ability of Corey to reduce his lifespan as a mere mortal shocked Dante to his core, and he was afraid.

Truly afraid.

To know that a mortal had the ability to reduce the lifespan of a mystic being was extremely frightening.

Such a skill was considered forbidden by the top powers of the Universe, and normally, a mortal like Corey should not be able to learn such an ability.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

Corey had no idea what forbidden skills were, nor did he know that a mortal like him should have never learned such an ability.

Though, if he knew, he wouldn't care one bit.

As for why Corey was able to learn more than one forbidden skill?

Corey would find out in the future.

If all Dante had to worry about was Corey's ability to reduce one's lifespan, he definitely would not have run away.

He would have been more careful and would have made sure that he avoided or defended Corey's slashes.

Not only did Dante have to worry about Soul Entropy, but Dante also had to deal with another skill, Painful Echo.

With every strike that Corey landed on Dante, the pain that Dante felt multiplied and magnified.

At some point, the pain reached a point that Dante could no longer take, and he decided to run away from Corey.

Although he was physically stronger than Corey, Corey could always predict what move he wanted to use, and it was almost like Dante was fighting an unparalleled martial art master who knew every move he was about to unleash and always had a counter to his every move.

It was extremely frightening for Dante, and his decision to escape from Corey was one of the right choices he could have made.

But unfortunately for him, Corey wanted his sword and Corey knew he could not stop Dante from leaving.

So, he cut off his hand.

Having one's hand cut off was an extremely painful experience.

But, when there was a skill like Painful Echo and Soul Entropy added to it, Dante went through the worst pain he had ever gone through and the pain made his body instinctively run away from Corey.

A tier 4 running away from a tier 2 because of fear and pain was unheard of in the Underworld, and if people heard of this.

Nobody would believe it.
