Chapter 97: Wrath & Death Law

The problem was that now he had only a little bit more than 2 minutes left to deal with his most hated and most dangerous opponent, Eric!

All this time he had been totally concentrated on the enemies in front of him, killing and creating a bloodbath to survive their deadly attacks.

He hadn't been able to think about Eric even for a moment, but now that the small fries were finished, it was time for him to go towards the big burger.

Turning his head towards the battlefield a moment ago he was unable to see Eric in there anymore, as all that was left in that place were limbs, corpses, and blood.

For a moment, fear that Eric had run away, and escaped flashed in his mind, which made him scowl like an injured beast.

He only had 2 minutes to find and kill Eric before he lost that power in his body because after that he would be weaker than an unborn child.

In that momentary madness, he turned his head around in fear, only to find Eric standing in front of Master Ito, blocking his path with a devilish grin on his face.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Master Miura, or more precisely the animal he had become, had a look of clear hate, and wrath.

It looked like those two people were the bane of his existence, and none of them should live so he could.

With another scowl of an angry animal, Master Miura started running at his fastest speed towards his hated figures.

He wanted to kill both of them in one fell swoop, and after being able to drink their blood. He truly hated these guys to the core.

It was only when he scowled for the second time that not only Eric but even Master Ito could see what he had become.

His hair seemed like he had been electrified, his clothes were tattered, his eyes were bloodshot, one arm was hanging, as blood rushed all over his body.

He truly seemed like some kind of beast who was being hunted all this time, and when it finally had a chance, was leaping on its hunters.

Differently from the devilish grin on Eric's face, Master Ito looked like someone who had just eaten a huge pile of shit in the middle of a big crowd.

Especially remembering what he had done some moment ago, made him even more regretful inside. He had truly shown to be a big idiot.

How could he do some mistake like that!? He had been 'friends' with Master Miura for a long time, he should have known that the guy had a few hidden cards.

But now seeing that wrathful look in his eyes, he could see that he had made a big mistake and that his chances of survival were really low at the moment.

The only thing he could hope for right now was that his 'ex-friends' hate and wrath for Eric were deeper, and he would go after him first as he made a run for his life.

Without losing any more time, Master Ito didn't stay put anymore, as he started running towards his left, with every bit of power left in his body, without turning his head back.

This was the biggest mistake he could make since Master Miura had basically turned into a wild animal at that moment, and he wouldn't consider who he hated more, but the target that moved first.

Seeing him trying to run away, and escape from his grasp, he immediately ran after him. Not to mention that Eric didn't seem to have any intention of running away.

At first Master, Ito thought he had made the best decision possible, and that soon his two possible enemies would destroy each other, as he was just like the fisher after the clam.

That thought only lasted for 20 seconds, because at the 21st second he suddenly smelled the foul smell of dried blood.

He didn't dare to turn his head back, but he knew that death was following behind him. He didn't dare to hold back anymore, as took out some similar pill to Master Miura, and was about to stuff it down.

But the moment he took his hand to his mouth, he felt that his hand started slowing down, and turning ice-cold like he couldn't use his hand properly anymore.

It seemed like his hand was slowly deteriorating in a really fast way. He didn't understand what was going on, but the pill that was supposed to be on his hand fell to the floor.

'Master Miura' could see the pill fall to the floor, and was tempted to pick it up, but the problem was that he could lose track of his prey, he was more important to him, so he kept following Master Ito.

Behind them, Eric picked up the pill in a calm way, as he looked at it for a second before putting it in his pocket, and following behind the duo in front of him.

He wasn't sure what it was, but he could feel that it wasn't a simple pill. He would have to look at it carefully later.

For the moment he had to follow his newest slave candidate and the new wild animal. They seemed like a funny bunch, who knew what else they would drop on the way.

He wasn't concerned in the least about this situation, as he already had total confidence he had total control over this situation.

As for the attack on Master Ito's hand earlier, we have to return a bit back in time.

Eric had entered that weird state of enlightenment as the more he killed the more he could make use of that weird dark energy surrounding him.

He didn't really understand what it was, or how it was related to him, he just knew that that dark energy existed around him all the time, and it was part of everything around him.

He could feel its existence in the air, in the water, in the trees, in the buildings, in the grass, everywhere. Everywhere around him this type of energy was present.

And it wasn't inner Qi, no this was something really different, something that looked like it didn't belong to the planet, but more to the whole Universe.

He didn't know how to explain it, even though he was feeling its existence, and he was able to use a tiny minuscule portion of it.

He didn't need to understand it and explained it right now though, he had a lot of time to think about this latter, now all he had to do was concentrate on trying to use more and more of it.

In the outside world, he was killing without mercy as his movements had truly become really smooth, and easy looking like he was cutting some tomatoes to make a salad.

And all the time his face didn't change, as it was that cold and detached calmed look, that sent shivers down all his enemies' souls.

As seeing their friends and comrades die in front of them they were getting angrier and angrier and pissed off.

But soon when they witnessed the trail of blood and the graveyard that had appeared around them, they lost all their anger, and wrath in one single moment, as fear conquered them.

For the first time during this night they had finally understood what kind of a grave error they had been involved with, and also the terrifying end of their comrades.

In that single moment, they were awakened from their chaotic feelings, as if someone had thrown a big bucket of ice-cold water over their sleeping faces.

They lost all their motivation to fight anymore and falling to the grounds with the knees first, they all kneeled, and asked for mercy, forgiveness, and surrendered to have a chance to survive.

Too bad they were too late, and there was no one to hear them anymore, as Eric was lost in his enlightenment, and just killed them without any slight moment of hesitation.

When all the people around him died, and there was no one more to kill, Eric was awakened of his enlightenment forcefully, even though he didn't want to lose it.

But there was nothing he could do about it, as he opened his eyes, and took a look at his surroundings, where big piles of limbs, corpses, and blood were surrounding him.

He didn't lose his cool, as he looked at his surroundings without caring in the least, these guys had come here to kill him, it was only fair to expect the same thing back.

Eric wouldn't go out of his way to harm other people, but to those who tried to eye what was his, and his belongings then he wouldn't mind even if he killed their dogs and chickens.

At that moment he heard a notification from his system.

! Congratulations to the Host for entering Enlightenment!

! Congratulations to the Host for comprehending the law of death 0.6%!

He was startled so that weird energy he felt around him at that moment had been the law of death? It was something really surprising and stunning.

Right now he still had a few remaining thoughts to think and process and digest what he had gained from his enlightenment, but first, he had to deal with this situation.

Spreading his sense all over the place he immediately understood the situation, he let the death soldiers obstruct Master Miura, as he went to stop Master Ito from escaping.

Just as he was about to fight with Master Ito though, Master Miura had killed the death soldiers and was looking for them.

He was curious to know how the situation would play out, so he didn't make any move earlier, and seeing the situation that followed, he really wanted to laugh out loud.

He was being underestimated by a wild animal, but it didn't matter, he could watch a show in the meantime.

When he saw Master Ito take out the pill, he immediately used a bit of that energy he had felt earlier, as he was amazed to see the hand deteriorating, and the pill falling to the ground…
