Chapter 313 Do not enter
?Kyle's head peeked out from behind a huge boulder as he gazed at the familiar figure floating mid-air in the distance.
Emion let out an angry laugh. He gazed at his surroundings and his harsh aura shook everything around him.
"It's been so many hours but why is it that I haven't seen even a single outsider?"
His eyes dilated into narrow slits. He was so angry that blood rushed to his head.
Kyle diverted his eyes with a frown. Just like Emion, he was equally confused because, on his way, he didn't see a single soul except for some people from the dark race.
Secretly he followed behind the frustrated man. They passed through a few treasure islands, mountains, and a large river. Yet, for some reason, the air was eerily quiet. It was as if the humans, elves, demi-human, mer, and dwarfs all vanished into thin air. Leaving behind no one except Emion and the few scattered people of dark race.
Kyle let out a soft chuckle. At first, he planned to distract Emion by attacking him but now with such a strange situation, he was not sure anymore.
'I don't think I need to distract someone who is already on the verge of madness.'
Bia yawned gingerly on his head. She was very comfortable. It was strange how Kyle's quiet and cold presence put her heart at ease. The fact that a fire phoenix prefers to stay with someone as cold as ice is astonishing, to say the least.
After another hour, Emion roared into the air madly and crushed a nearby boulder into pieces.
Kyle noticed with a raised brow. The sheer power of Emion's attack was at least ten times stronger than his own. He couldn't help but wonder what would have happened if he had been on the receiving end.
A chill ran down his spine as he shook his head with a dark face.
Still, he thought deeply. Just where the hell did the people who entered the realm go? After all, there's no way the dark race can kill so many people within such a short amount of time. Moreover, he sensed distress etched on the faces of the dark-race individuals he encountered on his way. It was clear that they were equally baffled.
'Whatever, it's better this way.'
With a sigh, he slowly followed behind Emion. They traveled for another hour toward the west before the wings behind the man fluttered roughly as he gazed at one of the treasure islands.
The look on Emion's face was screaming desperately that if he did not find anyone outside. Maybe everyone entered the treasure islands.
Kyle raised a mischievous brow and a strange glint flashed through his eyes. Just because he couldn't defeat Emion didn't mean he couldn't torture him enough to make him wish for death.
He rubbed his hands and Bia almost jumped off his head with fright when she heard his evil laughter.
-'The heck? Why are you getting so scary...'
Immediately, she lit a candle for Emion in her heart. The man was not going to live long. What a pity.
Kyle ignored her remarks and watched the man with utmost focus. As long as they entered the same treasure island, he was sure even if he did nothing, Emion was going to suffer a lot.
Opposite him, Emion felt a chill run down his spine. The man glared back but found no one. In the end, he flapped his wings in mid-air to enter the treasure island.
The winged man roared at him with bloody eyes.
"You dare!"
Kyle shrugged his shoulders with twinkling eyes. His wriggling fingers approached the bright orb as he watched the two bulls' who were supposed to attack him and Bia. The bulls suddenly halted in their tracks when they lost their targets. At first, they gazed around in confusion but the moment they heard Emion's thundering voice, the bulls snapped their glaring eyes at the shouting man.
Emion eyes widened with disbelief. He looked at the bulls. Now, they were charging toward him with the same speed they went behind Kyle.
"You bastard!"
He punched the bull he was fighting and jumped in another direction to avoid the two other bulls.
Kyle watched his struggle from above with glee. Suddenly he vanished from his spot and appeared inside the dome. Emion eyed his figure and the man shuddered when Kyle raised his hand and summoned countless ice spears that rained down at him with lightning-fast speed.
Bia let out a hiss instead of Emion and turned her tiny head away. The sight was just too painful.
Kyle's eyes zeroed in on the battered figure underneath him. He wanted to use his flames or ice domain but the skills would probably affect the bulls as well. That's why he crossed his fingers and gazed at the sandy ground.
Under Emion's wide eyes, ten glowing fire skeletons crawled out from the land and jumped at him without any fear. The skeletons were weak barely (B)-Rank but because the man was already surrounded by three towering bulls, he suffered a few injuries.
Kyle clicked his tongue when Emion managed to kill the strongest bull and badly injured the second one with the vortex. Still, when the man managed to subdue the last bull, Kyle spread out his palm and mumbled under his breath.
"Fire rain."
It was not his strongest skill but instantly a sea of fire descended inside the dome. Bia opened her eyes when she sensed the scorching heat. She flapped her wings and joined Kyle. After all, fire was her natural element.
-'Oh, it's actually a little fun..'
Emion let out a cry. He was already tired after battling with the bulls and the skeletons. He flapped his wings and after struggling for a minute managed to extinguish the fire.
When he was done, his body was burned in various places and countless injuries adorned his figure. Yet, the boiling anger in his eyes did not dissipate as he lifted his bloody gaze to stare at Kyle. Ready to tear the human into hundreds of shreds.
However, the sight he saw made him cough out blood.
Bia landed on Kyle's shoulder when the latter grabbed the white orb floating above the arena. The transparent dome had long vanished the moment Emion killed the last bull.
Kyle rolled the orb in his hand and a portal appeared behind his back. Before jumping into a portal he flashed a smirk at Emion.
"Dark race leader, try to stay alive because I want to be the one to end you. Remember... we will meet again, hahaha."
Emion's pupils dilated with rage. He couldn't believe that punny human was throwing the same words he said back at him!
Amidst all this, both Kyle and Emion failed to notice the tiny white ball lurking around the arena. Haylee wore a blank expression as he glanced at Emion's tattered condition and slowly followed behind Kyle.
'Just what had the world turned into? Now a (S-)-Rank kid can easily beat up a (SS+)-Rank being...'
'I wish master was here to witness the countless uses of instant teleportation.'
