Chapter 310: Licirius



Sylas didn't mean that it was literally Azrael, though he wouldn't be surprised if it was. Considering Alex had "come back from the dead," it would be hard to surprise Sylas with such a thing anymore, especially considering Azrael, if Sylas was correct, was a member of an alien

race.

'Another one, huh?'

Sylas couldn't see this person's stats, but he wasn't nearly as shaken as he had been in the past. He had an odd confidence about himself right now that was born through the battles that he had been through. Before, it had only been a small ember, but the more he fought, the fiercer it burned.

Running in this environment was almost impossible, so why not take advantage of the distance to recover?

<Maddened Enlightenment> activated and Aether rushed toward him. He then calmly took out several pieces of meat, eating them as though an enemy wasn't on the way. The power of his Constitution shone through and fatigue fell off of him in waves.

The dolphins realized that there was something wrong and immediately chose to escape, turning tail without looking back.

At that moment, the Den finally finished absorbing the final dolphin and Sylas calmly put it away without checking the rest of the notifications.

By this point, he could finally see the man clearly.

[Licirius Guiz (???)]

[Level: 15]

[Physical: 321]

[Mental: 391]

[Will: 387]

Sylas was taken aback. The explosiveness was too fast. It made his own body control look like nothing more than a joke. He exploded to his optimal state in an instant, and didn't even seem to have relied on a Gene Talent like Sudden Burst.

There was no time to cast a skill. Sylas could only lean back, tightening his core and curling away from the blade.

Licirius' eyes narrowed. He had been over 80% certain that this strike would kill Sylas, but he had actually managed to react.

What he didn't know was that just a day ago, that was truly what would have happened. But the Sylas of now was no longer the same.

Sylas hit the water and dispersed his Aether. With a push of his telekinesis, he descended quickly, opening up a distance between the two. When he resurfaced, the two were already over five meters apart.

There was a deep furrow between Sylas' brow and he realized that there was a big difference between Azrael and this Licirius.

Licirius seemed more frivolous and careless than Azrael, but in action, it was the opposite. Azrael hadn't taken him seriously until it was too late, but Licirius seemed to have the determination to use every ounce of his strength to kill him.

Why was that? Was it because of the Den? It didn't seem to be so...

A flare of Will sparked in Sylas' eyes. His fists clenched and unclenched, and then he suddenly

accelerated.

BANG!

Sylas' fist exploded through the air and the crackle of his tendons caused Licirius' ears to twitch. The latter couldn't help but be surprised again, but this time, his spear was even more vicious. Before, he had sacrificed Strength for Speed, but now he displayed his real skill.

It seemed like the same thrust, but Sylas felt as though a mountain had appeared before him. For a moment, he thought that it was a Visualization Skill like <Psychedelic Punch>.

However, it was entirely unable to impact Sylas' mind, shocking Licirius again.

Fist and blade collided. The water beneath their feet shook and a reverberating Aether spread in all directions.
