YM778.TV Chapter 100 The One Who Was Promised
I saw it all how his mana and ki blended together and transformed the staff into a more grotesque form. The flesh kept on pulsating as if it were alive. Then it expanded transforming into a different kind of weapon.
The flesh which is covered with thick blackish blood suddenly opens and gives out a set of different bones. It wriggles in a disgusting way to adjust to its new form.
A sinew, bone, and muscle, formed into a jagged blade. Its handle was made from sinew wrapped around a bone, it pulsates slightly as if alive. The blade itself, hardened muscle fibres interwoven with sharpened bone fragments, exudes a faint warmth and faintly throbs with a slow, rhythmic pulse, almost like a heartbeat.
It\'s a grotesque yet strangely functional weapon, unnervingly frightening, especially watching it in fast motion.
[It\'s beating but doesn\'t have a heart]
"Not everything that beats needs a heart, Jeremiah"
Then I felt a sudden wave of energy come head to head with my spear.
"The power is good, then let\'s increase the challenge"
My spear then began to spin, its high rotation speed and focus of application force put significant pressure on my mysterious opponent. The concentrated and drilling force combined with its lightning and fire properties made it hard for my opponent to deflect the attack.
My eyes were expecting something from him and sure enough, I wasn\'t wrong. The speed at which his mana and ki blended to make a response was impressive. It was fast and efficient and able to give an adequate force to continue blocking my strike.
Then after strengthening his arms and weapon, he redirected my spear aiming it at the side. My spear went on and flew past him but since it was being controlled by me it immediately changed its direction and aimed at his head.
That\'s when I heard a chant, a prayer.
"A gospel"
Magic emerges surrounding his eerie weapon. As it baths with the gospel\'s power my spear was already in its way. Lightning was fast but he went faster, almost at the speed of light.
[We should get involved, he is too dangerous]
Indeed he is, so I move my spear manoeuvring it faster.
[He is keeping up]
"I know"
I want to save my spells so I thought about using authorities.
"Gravity 10x"
The pressure surrounding the mysterious man grew heavy however instead of getting slower he went even faster even knocking away my weapon.
[Creator!]
"I know"
I saw it all, through the upgraded sensors of the system I could see how the flow of energies worked for both my opponent and his weapon.
Just now that man\'s weapon did something I never anticipated.
"It ate the authority"
It\'s like a massive black hole opens up from the thick layer of flesh and swallows the authority I release.
The command I gave for gravity to obey me turned to nothing as soon as the mangled pile of flesh swallowed and took the authority away.
A wave of energy blasted the ground, and right in front of me, the jagged bone weapon appeared right in front of my face. It was fast, however... I am faster.
The scent of something burning hit my opponent\'s nose along with my fist.
"Thunder aura, Positive lightning"
The clouds then darkened as lightning strikes.

[He blocked it]
"Yes I can see it"
He was sent flying because of the lightning\'s impact but he just fixed his stance and charged another gospel, as the light flowed in his entire body he engaged in close combat with me.
Every movement he made began to be calculated by me which is why despite his speed I was able to keep up.
He was terribly fast and flexible along with his frightening weapon, it made me feel pressured.
[On your left!]
I felt a strong impact from my left temple and saw the blade blocked by my skill Light of Aegis.
I can\'t help but smirk.
[You are reckless!]
"Ugh!!"
Blood springs out and someone defencelessly falls on the ground.
"Ah....you purposely left it open"
My opponent spoke while trying to heal his punctured chest.
Like I said I already calculated all his future steps and just have to take advantage of it. I know he will attack my head so I let it open and as soon as he moves, my delayed spell activated, striking his chest with another lightning spell. I specifically time the activation of the spell to my opponent\'s attack catching him off guard. He must have thought he got me there.
"Argh!!"
[He is healing fast!
Finish him before it\'s too late!"]
I frowned I want to study him more and his usage of his weapon but he is too dangerous to be left alone.
I was about to move when he attacked first, it seemed like he was disregarding his wounds to attack me.
[Dodge!]
Jeremiah\'s voice rang inside my head, well I wouldn\'t blame him.
Who wouldn\'t panic when a giant lump of flesh spreads out in front of you, while dozens of mouths and eyes begin to swallow you?
I stood where I was not bothering to move, and then it happened.
"Arghhhh!!!"
A scream of pain along with the sound of rustling electricity came to my ears. White lightning bolts intensify breaking the chain of flesh and blood.
"It seems you had forgotten about my spear so it came back to remind you"
"Argh!"
He tried to move but the massive amount of volts paralyzed his body. A high amount of voltage had a force to break and mangle bodies, but after analyzing my opponent\'s body I knew it might take a while to kill him in this method.
"Let\'s finish this"
My spear glows absorbing the essence, the symbols and patterns that adorned its body started to part from each other until the spear became separated and bounded by blue glowing lights.
"Jeremiah take care of that weapon"
[Affirmative ]
I can see it, even when he is being fried alive he is sane enough to command his weapon.
I can\'t let you do that
"Argh!"
He screams even more, I guess being separated from his weapon causes some mental damage but it doesn\'t really matter.
My spear turned into pure energy and along with my lightning spell it completely disintegrated the man\'s body, finally ending the fight.
"And now I have the answer to my question"
[You mean the thing you were suspecting?]
"Yes, bring me the soul of the archbishop"
[Affirmative]
"I need to know more about this mysterious weapon"
Veritas is a spell under necromancy magic and thus I can still extract memories even though my target is dead.
"Hey don\'t worry I\'ll let join the cycle once I get all the information I need"
And at that time a mournful cry escaped from the soul\'s core.
...
"Very interesting"
"What is it this time?"
Keith asked me while we walked across the cold and snowy temple.
The second temple of the Monastery is located in the northern region at the boundary of Brynar and the continent Nerteros.
"I found this while fighting on one of the temples"
From my inventory, a staff made of grotesque flesh came out. Each strand of muscle pulsates in a rhythmic tune.
"What is that!?"
"A weapon forged from the flesh and bones of someone, have you by any chance seen this before?"
"No, we haven\'t"
"Are you sure Keith?"
"I am sure Apollo if I have seen something like that I will never forget it"
"Keith is right this type of weapon is hard to erase from your mind"
Looking at their facial expression I knew they weren\'t lying.
[If they didn\'t encounter it then it\'s either they were immediately transported away from the village during the attack or this weapon wasn\'t used against them]
"That must be the case"
We continued to walk until a high frozen temple appeared in our view.
"No one has noticed our presence" Jillian whispered then I spoke.
"They won\'t be able to sense us since I sealed their senses"
[Please thank me for that, I made the seal after all]
"Yes thank you"
The second temple is different from the rest, from the location and weather to the size of the temple everything is almost unique.
The place was huge and also had more powerful people. The weakest is at rank Marquis while the strongest are at Celestial. That is why our approach here will be different from the others.
[You are using the ranking scale of a beast to measure them]
"Because they are monsters, they deserve to be treated as a beast"
We walked around the empty temple, placing the gifts I made for them.
[Notifcation Alert!
My sensors have scanned life in the underground tunnels]
"No worries we will go there later"
[The life I have scanned is weak, Creator, like a dying candle
I suggest we head there now]
"Okay"
I then looked at my two classmates and told them we would change location.
"Where?"
"At the underground tunnels"
"But we haven\'t covered the entire place yet"
"It\'s okay Jillian my soldiers will take care of it"
