The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World

Chapter 214 Chapter 214 - Illusions (1)

No matter where Aiden looked, he couldn't see the head nor the body of Isolde as if it had completely disappeared.

'How is that possible?' thought Aiden, not understanding what was happening at all.

How could a body simply disappear out of nowhere?

'I knew that something was weird when I couldn't leave the room,' thought Aiden, as he slowly calmed down and thought this situation through.

First off, he had killed Isolde with one clean strike without her even looking at him as if she had no idea of her surroundings.

That was the first problem with what had just transpired.

The second thing that was extremely weird was that the duel hadn't finished no matter how much time Aiden had waited for it to end.

This one was what made Aiden realize that there was clearly something happened which he completely ignored.

'But hadn't she looked at me, before slashing her down, why hadn't she made any noise whatsoever,' thought Aiden, as more and more things seemed to click in his mind.

'She was an enchantress, right?' thought Aiden, as he finally realized what had happened.

Truth be told, it was evident and he didn't understand why it had taken him such a long time to realize it.

He had been enchanted and he was now in an illusion in some place which Isolde probably controlled.

As Aiden realized that, it seemed that some sort of mechanism had activated as the water that had been under him started to float up slowly but surely going toward him.

Seeing that, Aiden went as far away as he could since he wanted to see if the water would be following him or not.

*Swoosh*

As he moved to his right, the water also moved toward his direction.

'What's happening is the water attacking me?' thought Aiden, realizing what was happening.

However, it wasn't really a threat at the moment, because the water was moving at a snail's pace.

Aiden could literally wait for the water for more than a minute and it wouldn't even be close to reaching him.

"Is that it?" shouted Aiden out loud, wanting to tease her.

As soon as he said that, the water which had been slowly accelerated instantly moved toward him at a much faster pace.

However, it still wasn't enough to catch him.

But then, not only did the water start to move toward him, but the planks of wood that had been used to create the boats started to fly up toward him.

"Fuck, how do I get out of here?" uttered Aiden as he knew that the situation would only get worse and worse as time passed.

Aiden started to look around himself mindlessly in quest of an answer, but no matter how much he tried. He didn't find anything out of order.

But then, he remembered that he had felt something move not so long ago, his instinct had told him, his [Sixth Sense] had told him so.

Inside the spectator's room, Melinda had a big smile on her face.

She was happy that Aiden had been tricked by Isolde. Of course, Melinda had been able to see the skill that Isolde had cast and she must say that it was quite impressive.

She had cast her skill as soon as the fight started, and Aiden hadn't even noticed it as he was now in the air not moving, completely still.

Both Olivia and Emma who were watching the fight, started to get worried that Aiden hadn't moved yet.

"Why is he standing still? What happened to him?" exclaimed the two girls clearly worried about Aiden.

It was weird that he wasn't trying to end the fight as fast as he could since it would be to its advantage since Isolde was still swimming toward the nearest boat.

But, then they quickly understood that something was wrong when they heard Melinda release a little laugh while Aiden closed his eyes as if he was sleeping.

"Don't tell that she put him inside an illusion?" exclaimed Emma not believing her eyes.

"But how? He wasn't even close to her when it happened, when did she even find the time to cast her skill," continued Emma, panicking like never before.

It was the first time she realized that maybe Aiden would be in trouble, and since it wasn't something that she had expected her emotions were at an all-time high.

"He doesn't even know how to get out of an illusion," exclaimed Emma, knowing that Aiden came from the Slums and had basically no knowledge of how those things worked.

In fact, he probably didn't even know that he could get caught in an illusion.

"Well, that's even better, he might actually lose this fight," said Melinda who was watching Emma panicking with a big smile on her face.

Melinda had also expected the fight to be extremely quick with Aiden being the winner, but now that he was stuck in an illusion without an ounce of knowledge about them, this whole fight had become interesting, much more interesting.

She wanted to see how he would try to adapt to the illusion and how fast he would do so, because he was completely defenceless on the outside, well... apart from the fact that he was in the air, flying.

The fact that he was flying was also quite a big deal since Isolde didn't seem to possess any sort of long-range weapon which meant that Aiden would be as long as he was in the sky.

So, Aiden basically had as much time as he wanted to figure out how to get out of an illusion.

Melinda was honestly hoping for him to get stuck inside this illusion for a little while like at least five minutes or else she would once again have to admit that Aiden was much more talented than she initially thought.

The five minutes was also considering his lack of knowledge regarding illusions.

"Well, let's see how fast he will get out of it."
