Chapter 38 The Strike That Changes The Tide!

Evan took advantage of the situation and used the power of his magic weapon to rain shards of ice down on Vera, but before they could connect, Vera rolled away.

Five out of the seven shards of ice landed on the spot where he once was, stabbing into the crusty and hard ground, while the other stabbed his arm and leg, causing him to scream out in pain. "UGH!"

The wounded area was quickly enclosed in ice.

Vera suddenly lost control of one of his arms and legs and dropped to his knees.

Immediately, a frost bullet struck his shoulder. Evan was like a merciless ghost. He felt that it was necessary to strike an enemy that was down. He had memories of his past life. He knew that the villains in Black Eye Galaxy had so many ways to flip the tide of a battle that they could take out a trump card from their asses if they were sleeveless.

"Why am I losing against you losers?!" Vera screamed in pain.

Evan looked him dead in the eye and said, "It's because you lack something we have. You have no one to depend on, but we can trust each other with our backs. That's the difference between you and us - you may be powerful on your own, but you lack the strength that comes from standing together."

"Bullshit!" Vera retorted, "This is a dog-eat-dog world where everyone is looking to benefit. They won't hesitate to stab someone in the back if it benefits them."

"I'll let you in on a little lesson I learned from math class," Lirian said with a chuckle.

Vera looked up at him, confused.

"Two hands can't win against four." Lirian continued, grinning widely. "Especially not when you're up against four hands like ours. You are arrogant and don't acknowledge anyone weaker than you, and you have some serious trust issues. That's the cause of your downfall."

Vera tried to say something, but Lirian wasn't finished.

"I have wasted my precious breath on you. So, you better register that lesson in your mind before we send you off to... well, wherever you're headed after death." Lirian giggled at his own joke.

Vera opened his mouth to tell him to shut the fuck up, but the pain made him groan.

His body was being frozen, and his insides and outsides were being enveloped in a layer of frost. He could feel his blood solidifying and his temperature plunging rapidly. He could feel himself coming closer and closer to death with the passage of each second.

The breath of frost technique was created by Ethan Frost, the legendary founder of the Frost Clan, so how could it be simple? Not to mention, Evan had mastered its third level, which was the ultimate level of the technique.

His ice-type soul energy contained a chill and freezing property that could freeze a person into a statue of ice.

Vera was experiencing its terror!

"Prepare to die!"

Although it looked like Vera would die in a minute or so, Evan still charged toward him with a sword in hand in order to deal the final blow.

He was never the type to underestimate his enemies, even while they were at death's door.

Thus, he wanted to deliver the killing blow and end this immediately!

pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ "This isn't ending with just my death." Vera raised his hand and shouted, "I am taking you down with me!"

Violet waves of soul energy surged out of Vera's palm, churning and twisting with incredible force, condensing into a massive, pulsating purple ball.

The raw power emanating from it was discernable. As it condensed, the air began to vibrate with a low hum, and the rocks on the ground shook violently.

Lirian's jaw dropped in shock at the sight of it. 'He still has so much power left?!'

He turned to look at the person beside him, but Evan wasn't there.

Where did he go?

He looked ahead and saw something so unbelievable that he couldn't comprehend it for a moment.

Huh?

What the heck is he doing?!!!

Lirian's eyes widened beyond the size of saucers, threatening to pop out of his eye sockets as he saw that instead of backing down in the face of the energy blast like any sane person, Evan was charging forward straight towards it with alarming speed!

It was as if Evan only had eyes for Vera and couldn't see the shit the latter had pulled out of his hand!

"How foolish!" Vera laughed, seeing that Evan was rushing towards certain death.

"If you think you can stop me, you are too late," Vera said as he brought his hand down, directing the giant purple ball of energy towards Evan.

Evan counted the milliseconds, and just as the purple energy ball was about to hit him, he activated the greatest skill of the Gauntlet of Invincibility!

[Ding! One-second invincibility has been granted to you!]

With all the damage being negated by the gauntlet of invincibility, he ran through the blast without being harmed.

Evan dashed through the blast unscathed, surprising Vera and leaving him vulnerable.

Seizing the opportunity, Evan plunged the magic weapon in his palm into Vera's body, impaling him with a swift, powerful thrust. The pain and shock on Vera's face became apparent as he registered what had just happened, and Evan twisted the sword, not only causing even more damage but also causing him to scream hysterically in pain.

"Please… sp-spare… me!"

Tears and snorts ran down Vera's eyes and nose as he begged for mercy.

Evan looked at him mercilessly, pulling his sword out and stabbing the other side of his chest where his heart was. Vera's heart was located in a different location that an average human's. Evan realized that fact when he first stabbed him.

"Your death is not unjust. Your actions have already caused countless casualties, and if you had lived, you would have caused even more. I cannot save those you have already harmed, but I take pride in knowing that I have saved those you would have harmed in the future."

These were the words Vera heard before he breathed his last.
