Chapter 243 Otherworlders Vs Ralyks [Pt 1]

'As expected. I still can't see it...'

As Rey looked at the eight—plus a projection of the ninth—enemies who would fight him, he could see Status Windows popping out of every single one of them.

All except one.

—Adonis!

'I guess it's because he has an S-Tier Class. That makes sense...'

In essence, it was on the same Level as [Absolute Appraisal]... or even stronger.

'Still, the only exception to [Absolute Appraisal] is that the target is a Tier above my Skill's effect.'

As such, Rey thought he'd be able to see Adonis' Status Window. However, after trying for so long, nothing was forthcoming.

In the end, he had to settle on a conclusion.

'He probably has Resistance to that kind of stuff.' That was the only explanation that made sense to him at this point.

'In any case, it looks like they're about ready.'

Still in his Ralyks persona, he calmly looked at the group that surrounded him from all areas.

It was a cool morning, so no one was sweating—at least, not yet—yet they looked tense as they circled around him.

'I should probably cancel out the effects of my Items to give them a chance...'

Instead, Rey decided to utilize a few of his Buff Skills instead.

His body flowed slightly as every aspect of himself became strengthened, one way or the other.

Rey still felt it was unfair, as he pretty much knew all their abilities and style of combat, but he was also being faced by everyone at once.

'I think that evens things out a little...' He smiled, feeling his heart thump a little in excitement.

'Alright then. Let's see what they've got.'

~WHOOOSH!~

The group attacked at once, all of them glowing with energies of various colors as they buffed themselves up considerably well—for those who could—and a couple attacked from long range.

Rey watched all the attacks come at him with a smile on his face.

'Let's see how far I can go too!'

*******

Adonis felt a determination within his heart as he looked at the opponent in front of him.

He wanted to win!

The shadowy appearance was tanging still, as casually as imaginable.

"My turn."

The moment Adonis heard this, he activated [Absolute Defense] and yelled at the very top of his lungs.

"Everyone! To me!"

The group huddled closer to him, and his golden dome of energy covered all nine of them.

He looked at the position where Ralyks had stood, at the crater that had been formed on the ground, but found nothing there.

'H-he's gone...?!' Adonis' eyes widened as he tried searching for him all around.

Left? Right? Behind? No... he was in none of those places.

"There's no need to look so anxious... or is there?" The voice came from above.

Everyone raised their heads, and there Ralyks was; floating in the air as he stared down at all of them.

"Do you really think you're safe inside that dome?"

Adonis shivered as the question was asked. He didn't know how to answer it, so he decided not to.

Instead, he thought of a way to counter, and it involved summoning his Divine Sword to—

"It's no use..." Adonis felt a hand rest on his shoulder as a voice echoed within the dome.

'E-eh...?'

It belonged to none other than Ralyks, and the Hero hadn't even noticed when the invaded his [Absolute Defense].

~VWUUUUM!~

A strong pressure filled the interior of the defensive barrier, causing everyone to fall to their knees.

"Is there anyone who can rise?."

sided massacre? I'll try to keep things engaging...
