Single Wish: Rise Of The Omniscient Paragon

Chapter 470 : 469: Shit! Master?!

"Defeat."

It was a bold and outrageous thing for somebody like Aethara to say that she had never tasted defeat.

Not only was she just a Dreadkeeper, a being that was equal to a tier 5, she was nowhere close to the power level of beings like the Supreme Ancestor and the Paragon Ancestor who were the only ones that had the right to say that they had never tasted defeat.

There were Ascendants who were at a higher power level than her, and then there was the Throne of the shattered dimension who was comparable to tier 7s and even some tier 8s.

There were countless people who were of a higher power level than Aethara, and to say that she had never tasted defeat was a ridiculous claim.

'Unless she never faced those that there were stronger than her like Ascendants, Tier 6s, and maybe even the Throne… However, I doubt this a lot.'

Corey's gaze shifted to Aethara who was now calmly approaching him with a calm and indifferent expression.

Corey gripped his axe, and took a defensive stance. The instant he took the stance, a voice flowed into his ears.

"Do you need help, Master?"

Corey shifted his gaze to the right, and even Aethara paused and turned to her left, her piercing golden eyes staring straight at Selene who was cautiously approaching Corey.

Corey raised his brows slightly, "I thought you were not going to fight."

Selene gave a dry laugh mixed with a bit of nervousness, "Well, I can't leave everything to my Master right?"

Corey furrowed his brows slightly, and then he glanced at the army of the Anacletus clan. Just as he had expected, the majority of the army was dead, and the sight of the corpses could cause nightmares even for the bravest of souls.

'Just like I expected… some of the Harbingers are still alive. Though they're weak and distracted at the moment because of the poison.'

Corey knew that although the mixture of his two poisons was powerful, it would be difficult for the poison to kill some of the Harbingers in the army.

Harbingers were similar to tier 4s, and just like the massive gap and difference between tier 3s and tier 4s, there was a massive gap between Seekers and Harbingers.

Corey shifted his gaze back to Selene, and then he placed his left hand inside his pocket and a second later, he brought his hand out.

Selene and Aethara cocked their heads to the side when they saw Corey's actions, but the instant Corey brought his hand out of his pocket, their expressions instantly changed. They saw three coarse black balls in between his fingers, and the familiar aura radiating from it caused Selene's body to shiver and Aethara to frown.

Before Selene and Aethara could react or respond to the presence of the three poison balls, Corey threw it at the remnant army of the Anacletus clan, and Aethara's expression froze for a second before it became of anger of frustration and anger.

The three poison balls flew toward the remaining soldiers of the Anacletus clan, and when they crashed into the ground, they broke apart and a dense black fog instantly appeared and spread at a fast speed.

The dense black fog prevented Selene and Aethara from seeing what was happening to the remaining soldiers, but the scream, shrieks, and shouts of pain and despair was soul shuddering, and Selene could not help but stare at Corey with a slightly nervous and fearful expression.

'I knew he was ruthless, but not this ruthless.'

"I was planning on making you fight and kill the remaining Harbingers or whoever was lucky to survive in their army, but since you want to help out…let's make sure that there are no distractions."

Corey's voice flowed into her ears, and Selene glanced at Corey before shifting her gaze to Aethara who was no longer staring at them but at the ground. She mumbled a few words, and although Selene could not hear what she said, Corey was able to hear what she said due to his Ears of Omniscience.

"Although I never cared about them, aren't I a failure as their captain?"

Corey frowned when he heard this.

"Can you keep up?"

Corey's voice flowed into her ears once again, and she was about to subconsciously nod her head, but her eyes landed on Aethara's saber. A scene played out in her mind and she could not help but shiver.

"I need a weapon…"

'I can imagine me trying to use my legs to attack her and then she'll block it with one saber while cutting off my leg with the other saber… I really need a weapon!'

Selene had already made up her mind that if she did not possess a weapon, she would not give her all in the fight. She did not want to lose her legs just because she did not have a weapon.

"What weapon do you use?"

Corey asked, and although Selene was confused as to why he was asking, she quickly answered.

"A sword."

Corey nodded, and then he stretched his left hand to the black fog of poison behind him. His pure white eyes glowed, and with a thought, he manipulated the wind runes in the air, and a second later, a turbulent wind blew in the black fog of poison, however, the black fog of poison did not dissipate despite the strong wind.

Instead, a sword that was being carried by the wind flew out of the black fog, and then it stopped in front of Selene.

Selene's eyes were wide open, and she could not help but stare at Corey in surprise. Her mouth parted open to speak, however, in the next second, she felt shivers run down her skin and her eyes widened to the limits in fear and horror.

Her instincts sent blaring signals to her, warning her of an incoming danger that could take her life.

'Crap.'

This was Selene's last thought before a figure collided into her, pushing her away. Before she could comprehend what just happened, she heard it and then she felt it.

CLANG!

SCREEEECHH!

BANG!

Selene screamed as a powerful shockwave slammed into her, causing her to fly and tumble multiple times on the ground before coming to a stop.

She mumbled a curse, and then she quickly looked up. The instant she did, her eyes widened in shock and disbelief when she saw a figure flying towards her. The figure was flying toward her with its back facing her, and Selene instantly knew who this figure was.

"Shit! Master?!"

Selene cursed out loud in disbelief, and she instinctively raised her arms to protect herself. However, the force that sent Corey flying toward her and Corey's weight was more than she expected, and she crashed into the ground the instant Corey's body crashed into her.

BANG!
