Single Wish: Rise Of The Omniscient Paragon



After making the decision of ignoring his previous attackers, Corey turned, so as to face the red sea of death. He straightened his body and his speed of descent increased slightly as he did so. He squinted his eyes and did his best to align his body to the bridge as he fell.

As Corey got closer to the bridge, a confused glint appeared in his eyes for a second, then he squinted his eyes the more.

A second after he squinted his eyes, his eyes widened to the limits and a curse escaped his lips.

"Fucking bastards!"

Corey stretched out his right hand, and six translucent hexagon barriers appeared a few meters away from him.

A few moments later.

BANG!

BOOM!

BAM!

Multiple explosions resounded in the air as numerous attacks landed on Corey's hexagon barriers, shattering the barriers instantly.

A large amount of smoke appeared at the area of the explosion, causing a brief moment of silence to permeate the surroundings.

Seconds passed and the smoke began dispersing before disappearing entirely, and with the disappearance of the smoke also came the disappearance of the smile reaper.

Confusion and suspicion came upon a certain group of people, and talks of the whereabouts of their target flew about. But despite searching for the body of the smile reaper, they found nothing and had no choice but to continue attacking other unfortunate targets.

Atop the red sea of death, a figure stood atop a stone turned corpse, his eyes containing a bone chilling coldness in them as he gazed at the long and wide bridge some meters away from him.

His gaze shifted to his arms and body which had some burn marks on them and he clicked his tongue softly. He then looked at the corpse he was crouching on and a mild frown emerged on his face.

'So, this is why one would instantly turn to stone after touching the red sea.'

Corey thought then his gaze moved to his feet which had a small bit of steam flowing from beneath his feet.

From what Corey could infer due to him been so close to the red sea of death, the reason why one instantly turns to stone after touching the red sea was due to the extremely high temperature of the large glossy sea.

The red sea was hot, so absurdly hot to the point that, whenever an object touched it, every liquid in and on the body of the object, instantly dries up, turning the object to stone.

It was a simple but still complex explanation for the unnerving ability of the red sea of death.

In fact, as Corey crouched atop the stone turned corpse, he felt like he was standing on hot coals. If not for his regenerative ability, high pain tolerance and the regenerative ability of Nina, his feet and shoes would be done for.

'But why is the sea red and so still?'

As Corey had this thought about the red sea, the urge to discover the reason for the color of the sea and the extreme stillness of the sea blossomed in his mind.

But a few seconds later, a drop of sweat fell from his chin unto the red sea and the moment it touched it, the drop of sweat disappeared.

No gas or vapor was formed and Corey seeing that, had his lips twitching.

'Focus Corey.'

Corey patted his cheeks then he looked around and images of numerous stone turned corpses appeared in his eyes. He looked at corpse he was crouching on which was sinking into the red sea, bringing Corey an inch closer to the red sea of death with every passing second.

'This time, I'm killing those fools.'

Corey thought then he released a soft breath and with a calm movement, he stood atop the stone turned corpse. He swung his arms softly and with a deep voice,

"Super Jump"

He spoke and the moment he did… He jumped.

Splash!

Shatter!

A shattering and splashing sound resounded the instant Corey jumped.

If Corey looked back, a surprised expression would be plastered on his face due to the slightly 'large' amount of red liquid and multiple fragmented stones that was in the air as a result of his jump.

With his knees close to his chest and his arms raised high up in the air, Corey soared through the air. His eyes contained a calculating light in them as the image of a stone turned corpse which was a staggering fifty meters away, reflected in his pupils.

A few moments later, Corey began descending and if anybody with a good discerning eye calculated the end point of Corey's descent, they would be shocked because…

Corey's end point of his descent was atop another stone turned corpse, and as Corey got closer to the stone turned corpse, he straightened his legs.

A few seconds later,

Bang

Corey landed on the stone turned corpse, producing a loud bang as a result. A second after Corey landed on the stone turned corpse, Corey jumped while using the skill, 'Super Jump' once again.

The petrified corpse shattered and a slightly 'large' amount of the red sea splashed about as a result.

From one petrified corpse to the other, Corey jumped, jumped and jumped until he reached the second closest petrified corpse to the bridge.

As Corey jumped from the second closest petrified corpse to the closest petrified corpse, his eyes held a calculating light in them as he looked at the bridge which was around a hundred meters from the last stone turned corpse.

'I won't make it.'

Although he could decide to use 'Teleport' twice, he had already used 'Teleport' twice.

The first time was using it to escape from the first barrage of attacks thrown at him in the sky.

The second time was using it from the second barrage of attacks thrown at him from the group of people on the bridge.

Before he reached the violet star phase, he could only use 'Teleport' twice. But now, he could use 'Teleport' five times, though, he would feel a strain on his body and his mana would be drained entirely.

Although he could still use 'Teleport' three more times, he would prefer not to make his teleportation skill public.

A mild frown appeared on Corey's face as he had these thoughts. The gears in his mind spun rapidly as he thought of ways to make it to the bridge, and a few seconds later, a thought came to his mind.

He stretched out his right hand and a human sized mirror appeared in his grip. Without wasting a single second, he flung the mirror to the distance.

The mirror soared through the air and a few seconds later, it landed on the red sea of death, and just as Corey expected, the wooden frame of the mirror turned to stone and the mirror stayed frozen atop the red sea.

Shatter!

Splash!

Corey jumped off the last petrified corpse, shattering it and causing a disturbance on the red sea as a result.

As Corey soared through the air, he stretched out his right hand and started weaving his fingers in the air at an extremely fast speed, and a few seconds later…

SHATTER!

SPLASH!

The glass shattered the instant Corey landed on it, but Corey already expecting something like this to happen, immediately used 'Teleport'.

A second after Corey used 'Teleport', Corey's vision changed and reflecting in his pupils was the image of the bridge.

'Wait. Why am I seeing the bridge?'

Corey's eyes widened in shock and when he felt himself falling, his instincts kicked in and he stretched out his hand to grab whatever was in front of him.

"Haa Haa Haa."

"That was close."

Corey exclaimed as he held the railing of the bridge with a relieved expression. He looked at the motionless red sea of death which had a few unfortunate people falling into.

He squinted his eyes, then he pulled himself up with a soft grunt. Standing safely on the bridge, Corey finally felt a sense of safety that only a solid ground could give.

Corey looked around and when he did, he saw his reason for coming to this part of the bridge.

"Hahahaha!. Look at these fools falling down like flies."

"I know right. If we can kill most of these guys, the boss would be pleased and the competition would be much easier."

"Having that teleportation item was really helpful."

"If I may, can I have a glimpse of the teleportation item?"

"Why? Don't you know it can only be used once?"

"Oh. Well, that's bad."

"Huh? What are you talking about you fool?"

"Wait! Who the fuck are you?!"

"Smile Reaper."

(Approximately Ten Minutes Later)

Corey sat atop the railing of the bridge while wiping his blood-stained battle axe with a black rag. His cold gaze moved to the front where six corpses, four males and two females with varying injuries could be seen.

'Two males were tier 2, while the rest were maxed out tier 1's.'

Corey thought as he remembered his fight with the group of six, which was easier than he expected.

'Reaching the violet phase made much stronger as a tier 1.'

Corey thought as he looked at his fist and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

He could not wait to see how much stronger he would get if he could reach his true limit as a paragon. But a few seconds later, his brows furrowed slightly as a thought came to his mind.

"I wonder who their boss is."

Corey thought, but a second later, he shrugged.

"I'll just make Divine handle it."

Just as Corey had this thought, his U-Watch rang and Corey's raised his brows when he saw the caller id.

"Speak of the devil and he shall call."

Tap

"Yo kid. Where the fuck are you?"

"I'm-"

"You know what, don't worry. I'll locate you myself."
