Single Wish: Rise Of The Omniscient Paragon
Chapter 117 117: An Unexpected End
"I have to stop that little devil from unleashing that attack on us."
With a determined expression, Corey spoke and a second after he spoke, he ran to a tree that was nearby and as he ran, he told Rhea about the new change in plans.
A second passed and Corey got to the tree that was not too big. The sky above him rumbled as thunder clapped loudly and flashes of lightning appeared in the sky.
Woosh
Woosh
The winds blew with so much intensity that the grass beneath Corey's feet and Corey's cloth flapped wildly.
'Funny how I always battle people that can summon lightning from the sky.
Luckily, from experience, skills like this take time for tier 0 beings to use.
If not because they're always in the sky, I'd have killed them.'
Corey thought as he placed his hand on the trunk of the tree before him.
'Let's hope I'm strong enough.'
Corey thought and after this thought passed through Corey's mind, he moved closer to the tree and hugged it.
"Hmm."
A soft muffled groan escaped Corey's lips as he used all his strength to pull up the tree from it's roots.
"Come on."
Corey spoke with a groan, mustering up more strength and after he spoke, the tree got uprooted.
Bam
With a soft *Bam*, the tree fell unto the floor and not wanting to waste time, Corey ran towards another tree and just like the previous one, he uprooted the tree, though at a faster speed.
CLAP!!
He continued doing this for six trees until a loud thunder clap resounded from the sky causing him to look up and when he did, he noticed the sky had become entirely red and the number of lightning bolts in the sky had increased.
'Can't waste anymore time.'
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCorey thought and he looked at one of the trees which had an image of a black bird for a second before it receded.
'Let's hope this works.'
Corey thought and in the next instant he grabbed one of the trees that wasn't possessed by Rhea with his two hands.
With a grunt, he spun in a 360° then he released the tree towards the location where he could feel a huge amount of mana.
He looked at the flying tree for a second before he picked up another tree and threw it at the same location.
After doing this for all the six trees, he looked around and when he found the nearest tallest tree, he ran towards it.
Meanwhile the little girl who was up in the air:
"Hehehehe. Going all out is too fun."
With an excited smirk she spoke and a second after she spoke, she frowned when she felt an immense disturbance in the wind beneath her.
She looked down and when she did, her eyes widened.
"Huh?"
She exclaimed with a confused expression and tone when she saw numerous trees flying towards her from below.
'Does he expect this to stop me?'
The little girl thought with raised brows and with a calm expression she waited for the trees to come close to her and when they did, she calmly dodged every single one of them.
Not wanting to be taken by surprise, she looked at the trees, waiting to see if something would happen but after a few seconds passed and nothing happened, she furrowed her brows.
'Did he really expect the trees to harm me?'
"Hmm."
The little girl thought and just as she had that thought, she released a 'hmm' sound when she felt another disturbance from the wind beneath her.
Woosh!
She looked in the direction of the disturbance and when she did, her pupils constricted slightly when she saw a black spear coming towards her at an extremely fast speed.
With her lightning fast reflexes, she dodged the black spear, though a part of her dress had a small cut causing her to frown slightly.
Once again, she felt a disturbance beneath her and she looked down. When she did, she noticed her opponent whose name she didn't know, coming towards her from below.
With a raised brow, the little girl looked at Corey with a slightly confused expression.
'Even though the spell is not complete…'
The girl thought and with an indifferent expression, she raised her left hand up.
'I can still use part of it to attack you.'
"Fall."
As soon as those words left her lips, the sky rumbled and a bolt of lightning struck towards her opponent.
Meanwhile, Corey who used his skill Super Jump after climbing the tallest tree he went to, had a calm expression when he saw the bolt of lightning coming towards him.
Having expected such an attack, Corey had entered his focused state earlier on, causing him to be able to see the incoming attack.
With a calm expression, he waited for the bolt of lightning and as soon as it reached a favorable position, he swung the axe in his right hand towards the lightning bolt.
'Full Counter.'
Using the skill which was the bane of all mages, Corey slashed at the lightning bolt and in the next second and much to the little girl's extreme shock, her lightning bolt went back towards her at twice the speed and power.
Despite Corey sending back the lightning bolt towards the little girl, Corey did not lower down his guard and instead waited for the second attack which he expected once again.
'Just like déjà vu.'
Corey thought as he saw a large fireball coming towards him and with a calm expression, he swung the axe in his left hand while using Full Counter, sending it back towards the little girl.
After doing that, he looked at the little girl who had an extremely shocked expression seeing the attack coming back towards her.
But just as the attacks were about to reach her, she came out from her shocked expression then raised her right hand towards the attack.
'What is she going to do?'
This thought came into Corey's mind as he fell due to him losing the force which he used to jump so high.
With a calm expression, Corey watched the two attacks reach the little girl who just raised her right palm towards the attacks.
A second later,
Bam!
A loud explosive sound resounded as soon as the two attacks reached the little girl causing smoke to appear for an instant.
With furrowed brows, Corey looked at the smoke and just as he was wondering about the status of the little girl, the smoke cleared up and Corey's pupils constricted when he saw a long chain come towards him.
'Shit.'
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCorey cursed internally and didn't try to dodge the chain since he knew it would be pointless due to the absurd control the little girl had over her chain.
Without much surprise, the chain wrapped around Corey and in the next instant, it pulled Corey upwards at a fast speed.
With a calm expression, Corey waited and a two seconds later, he appeared before the girl with the chain holding him up in the air, surprising him slightly.
He looked at the girl and when he did, his pupils constricted heavily when he noticed not a single injury on the body of the little girl.
'How?'
Corey thought and just as he had this thought, the little girl spoke in a cold tone:
"Who are you and what sort of skill is that?"
Unbothered by the tone of the little girl, Corey ignored it and instead asked his own question:
"How come you don't have any injury from that attack?"
Hearing the question asked by her opponent, the girl raised her brows and replied with a confused tone:
"I'm a Paragon, what did you expect?
The main ability of Paragons is their high resistance to elemental attacks.
How come you don't know that but you knew about my other abilities?"
Hearing the question asked by the little girl, Corey did not speak and kept quiet much to the irk of the little girl.
"Fine. If you don't want to speak, don't speak, but you must tell me about that ability that you used at the end.
If you tell me, I'll tell Aunt to not reduce your rewards even if you lost against me."
As soon as the girl finished speaking, Corey tilted his head and with a confused expression and tone, Corey spoke.
"Who said I lost?"
"Huh, what do you mean? Of course you've –"
As the girl was speaking, her pupils constricted and without hesitation, she tried to turn around and when Corey saw that, a small smile appeared on his lips.
'Too late little girl.'
Corey thought but in the next instant, his pupils constricted to the limit when he saw something which he never expected to happen.
"I always tell you pumpkin, stop using attacks that take too much time and don't let your guard down even if your opponent is down and is as weak as an ant."
A calm, masculine and gentle voice filled with love and concern reverberated into the surroundings and with an expression of shock, the little girl turned around and exclaimed:
"Father?!"
