Bro, I'm not an Undead!

Chapter 265 Swindling Death With Each Strike!

Phewwww…

A hot breath spewed…

The Arma Using category was vastly different from the Form Using category.

Classes were mainly chosen by having one’s prescribed Direction take charge in determining what would be the best path for them.

Once that was taken into account (for those that cared enough for it), one simply needed to start working towards the aspects of the class and their abilities would be shaped.

Arma Users cultivated mastery in weapons.

That was a shallow description still, as the true mastery of any weapon lay in inflicting one’s combat philosophy onto said weapon.

Habits, mannerisms, trust – these were entrusted to the weapon and how one handled the object was very indicative of themselves when they chose Arma Using either as a class or when Class Branching.

As Skullius pulled out the sword from its sheath, the curved blade whistling as it slid, he felt a familiar sensation overwhelm his body and soul!

Still, regardless of the chilling sensation… he couldn’t stop himself from taking out the sword and slashing down with it towards the carp he was facing!

It felt natural as when he sliced through the air with the curved blade, a horrifying power bellowed out like a mad beast, rampaging with a confined mystery!.

Yet, despite the mad power, Skullius didn’t panic… because he was very, very familiar with this feeling…

This unique sensation spread as it caused goosebumps to appear over everyone’s bodies, their very souls quaking from the mere instant that they tasted this feeling!

Death.

Skullius felt all his strength get pulled in as he slashed, his entire stamina pool, his senses and all sinking into [Demion’s Dance] as the skill [Epic Memory] showed its capabilities!

The carp that had been barrelling towards him from the air immediately opened its eyes wide as it tried to bring itself to a halt, but unfortunately, Skullius’ slash although ten inches away carried the potency wrought by those who played with death on a daily basis!

Also, a portion of the strength in the sword was not Discount Human’s, but still, as little as it was, it was enough to end the creature’s pitiful existence!

Phewwwww….

Skullius breathed out as he sweated, feeling that in this one instance, he was holding death in his hand….

WOOONG!

A serene ambience echoed as the curved sword left after images in its vertical trail!

The result started by showing itself to the bubble wall in the distance which expressed a clear incision from top to bottom, everything that was in Skullius’ line of sight getting split in half as above this fact, a reeking air, almost visibly tainting the atmosphere pervaded!

The carp at this point was no more than a cleanly sliced fish that was closest to the sensation of death that Skullius exuded, promptly falling to the depths below.

Skullius collapsed to the ground as he unconsciously took in deep breaths.

He sweated hard as he quickly dropped the sword on the cold slate he stood on.

His eyes were wide open and his mind turned chaotic.

The rough breathing turned into raspy breaths as Skullius felt himself grow a bit heavy, a sensation that represented that he was very tired.

‘Death…. I was really handling death… in my hands…’ Skullius thought as he gazed at his shaking right hand. ‘That was extremely… dangerous… but…. I liked it!’

The Discount Human smiled.

He hated to admit it but he sort of missed the sensation of being around death energy in Deadmanland.

Though this was different!

It seemed that [Epic Memory] drained him quite a bit and for now, Skullius estimated he’d only be able to use three attacks before exhausting his stamina, with each strike being similar to this one, where he felt like could actually die at any moment.

Who the heck made this sword?!

Skullius looked at the curved blade at his side and gripped it, sliding it into its sheath without a word.

He looked and saw Ginie, Natalika and Gertreld staring at him with curious and apprehensive eyes.

They had felt that chilling sensation and it had drawn more than just their attention.

Further away, the remaining carp drew back as all its allies had died miserably while it had been trying to keep them afloat while facing Tulnas who had the hazy large figure of the starry elephant behind him.

He hadn’t attacked yet as he knew this carp had something else up its sleeve and it was best not to rush the fish as it dripped of a vast amount of Primus energy.

“What will you do now, Mr Fish?” Tulnas asked with a confident look in his eyes.

The carp looked enraged as it large mouth produced a popping sound.

Its body became engulfed in the purple mist of Primus as it looked to churn it all out into one single move, an outrageous amount of power coiling within it to produce a shocking effect!

The fish was backed into a corner and now, it had to go all out with everything it had.

However, it wasn’t stupid.

Just as it had known to immediately attack with its desizing ability before everyone could react, it also knew that it would have the advantage if it tweaked one minor detail about its Special ability using its vast pool of Primus energy.

Its body buffed up as it arms turned thick, its height rising along with its girth and mass!

The carp screeched as its circular eyes bulged!

Its body outgrew the space inside the air bubble that separated the dark waters as it grew to its original size!

Skullius watched in marvel.

This bastard had turned himself back into his full size while keeping them minute!

It’s Special skill allowed it to desize everyone in the area including itself, a troublesome condition that it was to abide by. These kinds of conditions were the case with most skills at the level of Special and above, to make up for the absurd effect.

However, with its vast Primus energy, the fish had cheated this condition.

As the water splashed with its explosion out of the liquid’s surface, the fish looked down at the tiny six who were standing on frozen slates with its gleaming eyes, its third one moreso.

The fish didn’t waste a moment as it immediately got ready destroy the small figures below it.

What made this situation extremely perilous was how the group was not only shrunk down in size but even their powers were limited to their diminutive scales.

There was probably no way to retaliate and as Skullius questioned what he could possibly do in this situation, he found that he was lost for any viable answers.

The three ladies raced close to Tulnas who looked up at the shinning eye of the carp that seemed ready to release a final attack and awaited his orders if he had any.

They had full trust in the man and the look on his face gave them even more assurance.

“Interesting. If I had one more slot I’d probably add you to my collection,” Tulnas said as he then turned to the large figure behind him of the starry blue elephant. “That’s as far as our dear Mr Fish goes. Finish him.”

The bright eyes of the elephant shone bright with a zealous lustre as immediately after, the waters around rumbled.

All the waters!

The carp was shocked to see the water in the vast body of water, in the entire lake rumble!

FCH! FCH! FCH!

The water instantly froze, hundreds of ice spikes with a crystalline beauty appearing from the water and impaling the carp mercilessly all over its body!
