Chapter 1231  One Battle To Decide It All

Neither Slaughter Shade nor Hollow expected Varian to be so shameless.

He came like a valiant warrior, vowing for revenge. They prepared for a confrontation and he threw a fucking bomb?!

The spies were reminded almost instantly of Varian's earlier behavior. Until now, they were still thinking that it was an accident that the box had something so dangerous.

They didn't think that Varian or even anyone their rank would have the guts to deceive a being that's about to be crowned as a god.

Unfortunately for them, Varian was both fearless and shameless. He dared to plot against a god and behaved like the most shameless rogue.

"You shameless, utterly rogue bast—"

The toy sun exploded.

Even though they were caught off guard by his actions, they jumped back, creating enough distance that prevented immediate death.

They couldn't prevent the monstrous flames from engulfing and burning them to crisp.

"Ugh!"

Cough! Cough Cough Cough!

The smoke enveloped several thousand miles of radius and formed a dome-like structure.

A flash of light cut into the smoke.

When Slaughter Shade came to his senses, a strong hand gripped his neck as the owner of the hand soared into the air.

"Yo-You!" Slaughter Shade's killing intent exploded and he raised his hand to strike down the intruder.

But the hand gripping his neck tightened and abruptly, the world flipped.

Crack!

Varian bashed Slaughter Shade against the ground and raised his foot.

The Slaughterer's eyes went wide as Varian's foot approached, promising him a certain death.

Just then, a silhouette flashed through the smoke and shot at Varian. A large spear was pointed at Varian's heart, ready to end his life.

As if he had been expecting all this, Varian's foot that should've been stomping down onto Slaughter Shade kicked upward, blocking the spear.

Hollow had been through many battles to this day. But the swiftness and decisiveness of Varian outclassed him for just that moment.

In a battle, though, a moment was enough.

Varian slapped down onto his back and with the sounds of bones cracking, Hollow crashed down next to Slaughter Shade. The colleagues looked at each other in horror.

"You two really put me through a lot of trouble, you know that, right?" Varian's voice was low and cold, filled with a chilling rage that sent shivers down their spine.

"Answer me!" He stomped onto the backs of the spies. Whatever bones were impact and their entire torso was compressed like meat in a burger.

"You had fun, didn't you?" Varian grabbed their arms and pulled back.

With two crackling sounds, the joints were rendered useless and the arms lay limp. The most update n0vels are published on Noᴠelꜰire

The spies, however, didn't scream. They stared at him with resentful eyes. Especially Slaughter Shade.

"I was just wondering about it, but I'm now damn certain. You're the reason why my brother died." He spat out some dark green blood and roared.

"Do you have a brother? Cause I'm going to be the reason for your death as well." Varian raised his fist.

Slaughter Shade struggled violently under his foot, trying to get away and failed. "Don't bother. I dismantled your body."

Noticing the seemingly random but cleverly planned injuries on his body, Slaughter Shade felt a sense of despair.

"Go meet your brother!"

Crack!

The Slaughterer who ended billions of lives has his skull cracked apart and brain blasted into pieces.

As Varian was about to raise his hand to end Captain Light aka Hollow, the latter's eyes flashed and a spiritual attack struck him.

A monkey phantom surfaced near his soul.

"Hahahaha! Yes! I'm taking over your body!"

Against the power of a rank 6 Binder, Varian began to lose control of his body.

"Yes, yes! A young body, a strong body. Your potential….what?" Hollow's voice came to a confused halt.

A brilliant white light enveloped the monkey soul while a chilling dark light chained him.

"W-What is this? How are you able to even res-"

Shhhh!

Varian shut up the annoying voice in his head and threw the two corpses into the air. A monkey phantom was also shot up like it was some trash.

And then, the ancient voice sounded.

[Now a full rank of your Adept Path…]

When the foreign force enveloped him, Varian messed a little with his slivers. Instead of losing a full rank of a path, he opted to lose a bit of XP for each path.

'Status'

[Adept Rank 4: 900/1000 (-99)

Assimilator Rank 4: 900/1000 (-99)

Binder Rank 4: 900/1000 (-99)

Matter Rank 4: 900/1000 (-99)

Energy Rank 4: 900/1000 (-99)

Space Rank 4: 900/1000 (-99)

Time Rank 4: 900/1000 (-99)]

'Not too bad. I can quickly recoup my losses.' Varian squinted his eyes and waited for the instructions.

[Defeat the guardian and obtain the legacy. Since the legacy has already started to power the guardian, it will remain open for a brief period after you defeat the guardian.

Use that opportunity to connect your artifacts with the legacy. The artifacts will suck out energy, more than enough to kill the Harvester. The legacy is in the guardian's heart.]

"I guess it's fate that I have to kill this bastard," Varian scoffed.

The artifacts gaining a temporary boost in power sounded a bit too far fetched but if they're all made by the same Ares tribe, it had some basis. It's not like he had a choice.

"I desire to torture you but for now, I just want your heart." Varian kicked the floor and shot forward.

As Harvester was fighting Eshala's phantom, the bindings around the guardian fell apart. Yet, it wasn't so easy to fully break free.

The guardian paid a considerable price.

"Come!" Varian's roar rumbled like a thunder. "Either you live or I live!"

Under the guardian suit, Sarah only heard some unintelligible voices from this black and white creature.

But she did understand what it was trying to say.

"The final battle!"

[Because of the interference of external factors, your stay has been reduced. You can leave with the legacy if you win this fight.]

"Come on! Life or Death!"

The husband and wife clashed.
