Chapter 82 82: No Hope

With abated breath, Corey in his focused state gripped his spear tighter as he focused intensely on the Right Guardian walking calmly towards him.

A drop of sweat dropped unto the floor from Corey's forehead, showing the extreme level of focus he was exerting.

He dared not to blink as he watched the Right Guardian take calm and steady steps towards him and with every step the Right Guardian took, the pressure on Corey increased.

As the Right Guardian got closer and closer to Corey, he felt an urge at the back of his mind to flee, to just run away and abandon his sister, that there was no way he could defeat the person in front of him.

This urge, this feeling, was fear.

Fear started to creep into Corey's heart causing his focus to waver slightly but the instant it wavered, a fire which rarely appeared, appeared in Corey's eyes and heart, dispelling the rising fear in him.

His breathing became calmer and his eyes became slightly sharper.

"Hmm. He was able to resist the Right Guardian's aura and not flee?

Does he have fear resistance? And did it just increase to level 3?

Interesting."

The leader mumbled with a small smile on his lips as he saw Corey standing with a determined expression on his face.

"Well, it doesn't matter anyway. Just fear resistance can't save him. This clone of The Right Guardian is tier 3 and the kid is just tier 0. There's no way he can win."

With an amused tone and smile, the leader spoke, and just as he spoke, the Right Guardian moved.

Corey's pupils constricted greatly when he saw the Right Guardian vanish before his eyes even in his focused state.

In less than a fraction of a second, he instinctively placed the ancient spear in front of his head.

BAM!

WOOSH!

A much larger force than the previous one erupted from the impact between The Right Guardian's fist and Corey's ancient spear, sending him flying back at a much faster speed and to a much larger distance.

BANG!

Cough!

Corey coughed out a mouthful of blood as his body slammed into the wall of a building, destroying it in the process.

Corey's entire body trembled and his eyes were hazy.

Despite him been in his focused state, his eyes could not keep track of The Right Guardian's movement, not only that, it seemed the Right Guardian utilized his full strength or a lot more of his strength than the previous time he punched him.

Because, if he did not place the ancient spear in front of his head, he would definitely be a headless corpse by now.

Corey groaned slightly as he forcefully dispelled the fogginess in his mind and stood, gripping the ancient spear tightly in his hands while still in his focused state, but just as he stood, his skin tingled and without hesitation he jumped to the side but despite him trying his best to avoid the danger, he could not avoid it.

BAM!

The Right Guardian appeared from seemingly nowhere, giving a roundhouse kick towards the chest of the dodging Corey, sending him flying once again.

The Right Guardian frowned slightly behind the mask when he saw a white rib like armor on the chest of Corey, reducing the damage Corey received by an extremely small amount despite it breaking in the end.

Clicking his tongue, the muscles in the legs of the Right Guardian bulged and with a bang, he lifted his feet and ran towards the flying Corey, destroying the floor in the process.

With a huge burst of speed, he reached Corey who was about to hit the ground.

He grabbed the legs of Corey and much to Corey's fear, a grunt escaped his lips and he swung Corey at a building nearby, but due to the immense force used by The Right Guardian, Corey's body broke through the walls of the building without stopping.

BANG!

BANG!

BANG!

After slamming through two buildings, Corey's body slammed into the wall of the third building, finally stopping it's flight.

Once again, Corey coughed out blood and his eyes became hazy.

He forcibly tried to stand, to rid his mind of the weakness and emotion that was building up in him, but he could not.

His body was wrecked, in fact, beyond wrecked, he had been beaten and thrown around so much that if not because of luck and the average regeneration skill, he would definitely be dead.

Although the average regeneration skill was what had kept his life for this long, his mana was beginning to run out.

'Is this the end?'

'Is there no way for me to save Anna?'

'I lost dad, I lost mom, now I'm going to lose Anna?'

As the thought of him losing his sister entered his mind, he clenched his fists tighter and tried to get up, but it was all in vain.

Although his mind and heart wanted to get up, his body was unresponsive.

His mana was empty.

His stamina was also empty.

And the injuries his body sustained were serious.

'Get up.'

'Get up.'

'I have to save Anna.'

'Anna.'

'Anna.'

'Ann-'

'A-'

This words repeatedly rang out in Corey's mind as he struggled to get up, until Corey stopped thinking entirely and his breathing completely stopped.

The moment Corey stopped breathing and thinking, the Right Guardian appeared in front of Corey and picked him up by the neck.

He gripped Corey's neck tightly, wanting to snap his neck but then he saw that Corey's eyes were closed and he was no longer breathing.

"Did the cockroach finally die."

The Right Guardian spoke with a deep indifferent tone and was about to drop Corey like a ragdoll on the floor, but just as he was about to do that, Corey's eyes opened and the moment The Right Guardian looked at Corey's eyes, an extremely baffled expression instantly appeared on his face.

"What the-"

As the lips of the Right Guardian moved, expressing the bafflement he was feeling, his pupils constricted and in a fraction of a second, he threw Corey far away from him.

With a dark expression, he looked at the left side of chest which had a slight cut on it.

He then looked at Corey who was on his feet while holding the black ancient spear with utmost seriousness.

"Who are you?"

The Right Guardian asked with a solemn expression and tone as he looked at Corey who had an emotionless expression and plain white eyes.

Corey's black pupils had disappeared, leaving only the extremely white iris of his eye causing those who look at it to feel extremely strange and uncomfortable, as if they were naked before his extremely white eyes, which was exactly the case.

As Corey looked at the Right Guardian with an emotionless expression, what he saw was extremely different from what he had been seeing.

He could see the internal structure of the Right Guardian before him. He could see the muscular system, skeletal system and even the mana veins of the Right Guardian.

He could see almost everything that was inside the body of The Right Guardian and assuming Corey was in his 'normal' state, he would be baffled and shocked by this ability of his.

But right now, Corey was not in his 'normal' state, it can even be said that he was in an extremely dangerous state and if he was normal, he would be seeing notifications from the Universal System, warning him about his current state.

Meanwhile the leader of the group who had been watching the fight with interest despite it occurring far away had a change in expression for the first time since he had been watching the fight.

"This aura? Isn't it similar to the aura from the martial clan?"

[A/N: You guys, I want to apologize.

I made a mistake.

I thought i would be able to post the ten privilege chapters after going premium but I didn't know that the first month that I go premium, I would not be able to set the tiers of privilege which means I can't post more than two chapters for privilege.

I also didn't know that I would need to post two chapters immediately after going premium.

Anyway, I apologize to y'all that might have been expecting the ten privilege chapters.]
