Single Wish: Rise Of The Omniscient Paragon



Moments after the commentator spoke, two individuals walked out of two opposing gates and when Corey observed the two individuals, he raised his brows and a confused expression appeared on his face.

"Hey kid."

Divine's voice flowed into his ears, disrupting his incoming train of thoughts. Corey shifted his gaze from the two individuals to Divine who was also staring at the two individuals with a light smile.

"Who do you think will win?"

Divine, perceiving Corey's glance without giving Corey a glance, spoke.

Corey stared at the two individuals once again and his brows furrowed slightly as he observed both individuals..

The first individual which he knew, was Triple X, who like always, had a bored and nonchalant expression. His dark eyes containing no other emotion apart from boredom. He wore a black long-sleeved t-shirt, black shorts and black shoes. He had a fairly handsome face with his hair having a dreadlock style.

The second individual, who was called Automaton, was the source of Corey's initial confusion.

Automaton looked like a cyborg. His physical structure was humanoid, though, apart from the left half of his head, his entire body was made of metal. In his hands were two black metallic briefcases which emitted a bright sheen.

In essence, Automaton was 95% machine, 5% human.

'The guy looks way too much like a certain superhero I've seen in the past.'

'Did he just decide to copy his looks?'

This thoughts crossed through Corey's mind as he observed Automaton.

"Since you brought me here to watch Triple X's match, doesn't that mean Triple X would win?"

Corey removed his gaze from Automaton, and turned towards Divine. His brows furrowed as he wondered if Divine expected Automaton to win.

'But that wouldn't make sense. Cause if Automaton was to win, Triple X would have to die and I'm pretty sure Divine wouldn't want that.'

Corey gave Divine a glance as he wondered if something unexpected was going to happen in Triple X's fight.

Divine turned towards Corey and a light smile appeared on his face and with a soft chuckle, he spoke:

"You're right. Triple X will win, but… I expect it to be fun."

'If you say Triple X is going to win, why did you now ask me for my opinion?'

Although Corey had the urge to speak out his thoughts, he decided to keep it in his mind. He didn't want to receive another annoying comment from Divine anymore.

"Let's watch the match shall we."

Divine spoke after receiving no response from Corey, and without waiting for Corey's response, he turned towards the match with a slightly eager expression.

Corey gave Divine a brief glance before he also turned to the participating duo, his eyes having an intrigued light in his eyes as he waited for the battle of the two 'Kings'.

(In the battle arena of the Amphitheater)

"You know, I'm surprised. For such a big coward like you, I didn't think you'd accept my challenge."

Automaton spoke, his androgynous voice containing a tinge of amusement as he gazed at Triple X with concealed anger, envy and disdain.

"This time around, I'll…"

"Rise of the Horde."

Just as Automaton was speaking, a calm, indifferent and bored tone disrupted him and in the next instant, Automaton's human eye widened as he saw a large black smoke emerge from the ground and around two seconds later, the smoke dispersed and a large group of undead emerged before him.

Standing at the forefront, was an army of skeletal warriors, each holding a weapon or weapons. Their number surpassing two thousand. Behind these skeletal warriors were a group of walking humanoid and beast corpses. Their eyes devoid of any emotion as they made growling noises. Their numbers surpassing two thousand.

Behind these group of walking humanoid and beast corpses were skeletal mages, each wearing a black robe, a long pointy wizardy hat and a staff in their hands.

Screech!!

Screech!!

Loud screeches resounded in the Amphitheater, causing a large portion of the crowd to cover their ears with a deep frown. Corey merely had a slight furrow of his brows and with squinted eyes, he gazed at the source of the screeches, and when he did, a light of confusion appeared in his eyes.

'What the?'

"Hmmm. He brought out those."

Corey turned toward Divine who spoke, his eyes still containing the same light of confusion.

"What are those?"

Corey asked as he shifted his gaze from Divine's face to the two horror like aerial beasts in the Amphitheater.

The first aerial beast had the head of an owl, a hunched back and an extremely skinny figure. Despite its wings barely having skin or feathers, the winged beast could still fly, it's extremely large, black and soulless eyes casting a glance at Automaton, giving the king of android a slight chill.

Although the first aerial beast was disturbing in its appearance, the second aerial beast was something Corey had never seen before nor did he ever think could exist.

The second aerial beast had the head of a vulture, though its neck was longer than that of a vulture. It had feathery wings coming out of its back but beneath the wings was a pair of hands and in one hand was a sword. pandasnovel.com

Although the part of the aerial beast carrying a sword was surprising and intriguing to Corey, the lower part of the aerial beast was also something that confused and somewhat disgusted Corey.

Instead of the aerial beast having legs, the beast had tentacles as the lower part of its body.

All in all, the aerial beasts were creatures Corey had never seen nor heard of before.

"Those are X's creation. They have no name, so we just call them X's creations or creations of X."

Corey moved his gaze from the aerial beasts to Divine, his eyes emitting a visible gleam of intrigue and curiosity.

"How did he create them? Did he find and kill the beasts when they were alive? Or did he find the corpses of these beasts and turned them into an undead?"

Corey asked and Divine who was also staring at the aerial beasts, turned towards Corey with a small smile,

"Well… even I don't know. You'll have to ask him to know the answer."

Hearing Divine's reply and seeing his nonchalant shrug, Corey decided to focus on the battle between two kings. His gaze lingered on the Triple X's army for a few seconds and just as he was about to look away, he paused as he saw a black smoke appearing beside Triple X.

He squinted his eyes and a few seconds later, his brows were raised with a confused expression on his face.

In his vision was a nine foot giant wearing a full body armor and helmet, on its back was a great large sword, which had its tip almost touching the floor.

As Corey gazed at the nine foot giant, he didn't know why, but he felt a creeping sensation of fear and unease, and this sensation bothered him.

"Oh god. This fucker went to bring out this freak."

Corey glanced at Divine, and as he did, a soft chuckle escaped Divine's lips then he snapped his fingers.

"Previously, I considered Automaton having a 14% chance of winning, but now… tsk tsk tsk."

Holding a large sized Cuban cigar in his right and a lighter in his left, Divine shook his head.

Corey had a slight furrow of his brows as he stared at Divine who was lighting up the Cuban cigar in his hand.

"How strong is that undead? What are its abilities?"

Corey asked with a curious tone as he observed the increased frenzy in the audience around him.

"You'll have to watch the match for that kid…"

Divine replied then he took in a puff of the Cuban cigar and blew it out.

"…God damn. This shit is actually good… You did a good job kid."

Corey gave a brief glance towards Divine and as soon as the smell of the smoke from the Cuban cigar flowed into his nose, his brows furrowed slightly.

"You shouldn't be doing that."

Corey spoke with a tinge of warning in his tone, and a soft chuckle escaped Divine's lips.

"You don't have to worry about me. I'm more powerful than you think."

Divine said with a smile and Corey just gave a nonchalant shrug as his gaze finally moved to Automaton, who had already unleashed his army.

(A few minutes ago)

Seeing the large group which had approximately five thousand undead, Automaton quickly pressed a button on his briefcase, and as soon as he did, numerous metallic balls emerged from the briefcase.

The metallic balls rolled on the floor for a few seconds, then they opened and a transformation occurred to the balls.

The balls enlarged and after a few twist and turns, humanoid androids appeared from each metallic ball.

There were humanoid androids with guns, swords, spears, axe etc. There were also humanoid androids riding on android beasts. Not only that, there were two tanks and a few humanoid androids flying with jetpacks or jet boots.

Although Automaton's army was not so versatile, its number was at least twice of Triple X's army.

"Don't think you're the only one with an army! Mine is larger and much more powerful!"

Automaton shouted, causing a frown to emerge on the face of Triple X.

"You're too noisy."

Triple X muttered with a dissatisfied expression, then he looked at the nine foot tall giant beside him. The giant wore a full body armor, helmet, and on its back was a large great sword and a shield.

ƥandasnovel·ƈom Perceiving the glance of its master, the giant turned its head towards Triple X, it's dark blue eyes containing visible respect as it gazed at its master.

"They're too noisy. Destroy them all and kill him."
