Chapter 234: Chapter 234: Bullying

The Shadow didn't give Eren a chance to breathe as he followed after him. All attacks were useless on him, so it was impossible to stop it.

"What an absolute mess," Eren realized that physical attacks were useless on the Shadow Warrior.

If it wasn't for his seventh sense, making him observe his complete surroundings, he was sure he would have been assassinated already.

The Shadow appeared in front of Eren who tried to block the dagger. The shadow dagger passed through his sword, coming towards his shoulder again.

He dodged the dagger, which still managed to slice through his shoulder. Fortunately, it only managed to leave a shallow wound.

"If physical attacks don't work, then let me shove something else in your mouth!"

He made the Sword disappear, which was completely ineffective against the shadow. He could surround the sword with the poison using his pendant, but that was like using a nuclear bomb to kill a chicken.

He couldn't waste the use of the pendant for such a minor thing when he had other methods.

This time, he focused only on dodging when the shadow kept attacking him. Yelen wanted to help him, but right at the start of the battle, Eren told her to stay out of it.

In this world, he hadn't experienced a proper battle before. Although the shadow was dangerous, but he was confident he could deal with it.

If it wasn't for his seventh sense, he would have hesitated facing the shadow that was like an assassin. But when he could see his surroundings, his instincts were also improving.

He had already noticed that the shadow wasn't trying to kill him, as if it was instructed to keep him alive. What better enemy to train against than someone who wasn't going to kill?

Still, he didn't take the battle lightly. Even if he wasn't going to die, he didn't want to lose any limbs. Even if they could be healed later, he would have to wait until he returned.

In the Mountain of Loss, being without a limb when facing another Transmigrator was the last thing he wanted.

The ground where the shadow was standing was also ruined. The layer of snow had melted by the power of the mana bullet, along with a crater that had been created under them.

Even Eren lost his balance when the crater formed with the impact of the bullet, falling on his butt.

Sitting in the middle of the crater, Eren observed the dispersing shadow energy with his Seventh Sense.

With the naked eyes, it was impossible to see the dispersing energy, but he could see that it was still spread in the surroundings.

He wondered if there was a way for him to absorb the shadow energy, but it felt impossible. The shadow warrior didn't have a heart. Even if it had a core, that core had already been destroyed.

"If you have had enough rest, shall we get going?" Yelen asked Eren, appearing behind him.

"Geez, lady. I went through a life threatening battle. Aren't you even going to ask if I am fine or not?" Eren rubbed the back of his head as he sent the gun back. He pushed his body up, letting his mana recover slowly.

"A life threatening battle? Why did it look like you were toying with the poor shadow?" Yelen rolled her eyes.

She had seen the entire battle. Other than the starting few seconds, she didn't feel that Eren's life was in danger even once. If it was, she would have ignored his commands to intervene.

"I'm the only poor person here who has been bullied," Eren innocently complained. Who could have been bullied more than him when he was shoved in the world where death was waiting for him at every corner?

If it wasn't for his system and his bluffing ability, he would have been long dead.

It was only recently that he started becoming stronger to the point that he could fight for his own life. And now that girl termed that as bullying others?

He jumped out of the crater and pinched Yelen's cheeks.

"You won't understand."
