Bro, I'm not an Undead!

Chapter 257 Master of Evil Darkness (1)

..!

Natalika furrowed her brows as she sensed the intense sensation from the darkness conjured by Skullius!

It was odd to her senses, like something that was too unnatural to fully grasp and ground to reality.

As if it scaled up to… Divinity!

Ginie and Gertreld also turned as they sensed the peculiar energy signature in their own ways, the sensations this profound energy gave them being quite unique.

It was truly odd, yet attractive drawing on their expanded sensory abilities!

It demanded to be acknowledged!

Slivers from the mass of [Evil Darkness] conjured by the Insurgent Magnus created a coating around Skullius that did not hide his appearance but outlined him like a drawing, perfectly filming his figure in darkness.

The moment this happened, Skullius who had been heading for the Ghoul ahead of him at a high speed, suddenly shot forward like a straight, dark image with no intention of stopping!

The ground underneath his feet exploded as he took light steps with each advance, jumping up and dropping over the Ghoul with readily prepared attack!.

The Discount Human’s form was proper, directly contrasting how he had been a some days ago before training.

He was cautious and conscious of his surroundings even as he moved in midair!

The Ghoul looked up at him and screeched, clearly being able to read his movements which had been augmented by [Evil Darkness] partially!

The creature launched its blade leg at Skullius as he was in mid-air, the limb fuming with dark purple energy!

The movement was very fast, the blade reaching Skullius who remained calm, yet angry as a thunderous force descended on him along with it!

Surprisingly, the Discount Human emitted a plume of the darkness which made even the Ghoul grunt in acknowledgement of the danger it sensed!

The darkness formed a curved shield at Skullius’ side right as the blade was about to hit him, a loud creaking sound echoing as the two met with a ferocious amount of force!

Sparks flew with Skullius’ curved darkness shield remaining intact, the Discount Human continuing his descent until he spun like a top and hammered down with his heel, all his might going down to the Ghoul’s head!

BOOM!

A windy shockwave spread outwards from the impact, digging through the streets that the two fought on while demolishing the nearby infrastructure, the head of the Ghoul lowering from the immense force!

This was the full power strike of the base Discount Human!

Skullius reached the ground and immediately launched an uppercut at the creature that didn’t seem to have received much damage from his previous attack!

His fist glowed with a brilliant light that produced a loud thrum and thirst for blood, the attack banging into the Ghoul’s jaw with a loud cracking sound before the monster actually flew up high while screeching in pain, its hard exterior suffering damage!

The brilliant light was the same pseudo skill he had used against Renialid which was produced by the combination of [Mana Force], [Raw Impact], [Guard Light], [Great Rush I] and [Flash Flicker], the mash of skills that he had wanted to turn into a singular skill but failed at.

He could only cast all these skill simultaneously, achieving this current result while also showing his incredible proficiency in manipulating the many skills as he pleased.

‘Hmph!’ Skullius grunted as he leapt up, his other hand glowing as well, as he then threw a flurry of punches at what he thought would be the vitals of this Ghoul!

The creature screeched as it tried to counter the attacks that caused its innards to shudder, swiping both its blade at a ridiculous speed that Skullius couldn’t have possibly reacted to at his current level!

However…

Sparks flew as Skullius countered with another curved shield of [Evil Darkness]!

…!

The creature was flabbergasted to see yet again, this human with a core lower than its own reacting to its movement, but the reality was different.

The Discount Human had learned the basics of reading attacks before they were executed.

This creature was clearly not an expert in combat and for Skullius who trained under the Assassin class expert Oliviana, reading what it would do next and responding accordingly before it could attack despite the wide gap in stats was easy!

‘I might be getting a few hits in, but it’s barely doing any damage. To end this quickly, I’d have to use my ‘Radiant Awakening’ at full blast but that would deplete my mana too quickly,

…’ Skullius thought but stopped this thread of thought midway as he sensed a disturbance in the mana around him!

Something was approaching from his side while being hidden quite well!

He could only sense this thing because he felt the gathering of mana with his [Elevated Mana Manipulation]!

From his right, another Ghoul rushed towards him with its blade brimming with purple energy that roared with a vicious heat that almost blew Skullius away as it appeared, but he firmly remained rooted to the ground..

“Good. Come and get it, you fleshly bastards!” he roared before clasping his hands together with a crazed grin as a large amount of mana was consumed!

Right before his two new enemies could converge towards his position, a burst of wild [Evil Darkness] shot out from Skullius in an instant, covering an area of six meters in all directions simultaneously!

The mass of darkness squirmed as in the next moment, a solid and perfect dark cube was formed!

…!

Tulnas edged in his seat from excitement.

His senses were cut off from what Skullius was about to do within this large object he had construed!

He watched the surroundings around the large dark cube turn into distorted lines and discoloured backgrounds and narrowed his eyes!

Within the darkness, Skullius focused around him where his enemies were!

CRACK! CRACK!

Screech!

A sound onky Skullius could hear ensued.

One of the Ghouls which had been hidden before suddenly emerged, the cover it has been using shattering like glass, pieces of colour falling to the ground as its body was revealed!

Skullius could sense its shock and this brought him no small amount of glee!

He knew what they were experiencing and it was an extremely annoying situation to say the least.

An annoying and fatal situation.

His mana churned as a whole bunch of information was fed into his mind.

“Ha! I see. What a nice trick!” he called as he cackled.

Everything that occurred in this domain of darkness was made to him, for he was master over the darkness!
