Chapter 899: Not Following The Lesson



As Arad saw Kayden teleporting while accelerating, he wanted to mimic him so he could keep up. But using [Void Step] at this level while still under Taurus was easier said than done. One fraction of a second of latency and he'll get sliced apart and die.

Arad took a stance as his body flew back in the air, with one finger he pointed at Kayden, a large smile on his face. "This is what you think, demon!" Pink tattoos started spreading across Arad's arm as a faint giggle escaped his mouth.

Kayden flew after Arad, ignoring the clone for now as he had already sliced him in half. What he wanted was to land a strike on Arad to knock him out. But at this moment, he could sense the curse swelling up inside Arad, it only took a fraction of a second, activating faster than Arad's acceleration.

Curses always come with a benefit and a bad effect. The one Arad used was suggested by Doma, and it was quite a simple curse. [Blind Runner] As the name implies, you'll be able to move twice as fast, but you'll be blinded while you move.

Arad kicked the air with his foot, flying back toward Kayden at double the accelerating and top speed. In a fraction of a second, he had broken the sound barrier several times, reaching a top speed of around 6000 m/s {19685 feet/second} {1500m/s base speed, doubled by [Taurus] and then doubled again by the curse.}. In that one-thousandth of a second, Arad had already reached Kayden and was standing on his back, swinging a kick at his neck at full force.

Kayden looked up, turning his blade upside down to slash Arad's foot before it hit him. Due to his demonic vision, he had already noticed that Arad was blind, but something seemed off. The young man he was facing no longer looked young.

Arad had hair growing on his arms, chest, and legs, even his face had developed a thin beard. He looked more and more like Alcott by the second, but that hair wasn't just there for no reason. Now that Arad had become blind, he used his lycanthrope curse and partially transformed, leaving him with more body hair. That sensitive hair was growing on his already sensitive scales, allowing him to use a powerful and very accurate sensor. When objects move, they move the air around them, and his hair can pick that up, allowing him to effectively see while blind.

Kayden teleported behind Arad while swinging his sword, he aimed once again to cleave Arad in half. With a deep grunt, Arad twisted his back and caught Kayden's katana with his hand. When someone teleports, they leave an empty spot in the air that his hair can sense, and the opposite happens when they teleport, the air around the area where they are about to appear expands, and this is how Arad managed to know where Alcott was teleporting even when blind.

By quadrupling his top speed and accelerating to it in the blink of an eye, Arad's moves had begun to reach an unhuman level, allowing him to even surprise Kayden. The limits of his power were still unknown, and Kayden could only keep pushing Arad harder and harder, trying to force him to draw more power.

The blade blazed through Arad's skull, cutting it with a splash of red blood. Kayden's demonic eyes looked at Arad's body, taking him only a fraction of a second to determine that he didn't kill him. To anyone else, that might've been a surprise with such a fatal injury. But Kayden knew he knew what kind of being he was facing now.

"You and this fucker... Always put me through hell..." The body of a thinking kid emerged from Arad's open skull, Chuzuke stared at Kayden with a twisted, angry face, pointing his fingers forward as his eyes sparked red. "BANG!" Arad's body exploded into a massive fiery explosion, conjuring a massive mushroom pillar of crimson fire.

Like a splatter of blood in the sky, Arad's brain fell from the heavens, regenerating back into a full body in the blink of an eye. If he could teleport his whole body, he'll just teleport the brain and stomach, and use that to regenerate, all while leaving his body as a dummy and a bomb. Arad stood naked in the air, his body covered with the eyes of the vampires inside him, dripping with blood as Zia emerged and sat on his shoulder. He looked down with a passive face, exhaling the burning hot air inside his legs into a massive gust of smoke.

"My lord, that was a close one." Zia said with a smile, "What in the hell is that demon?"

"An absolute demon. This is fear, that's good then. This is what it feels like to be a normal man facing a demon." He said, looking as Kayden appeared to be still standing in the same place, the best this nuclear explosion could do was sherd his kimono. It didn't even leave a scratch on his skin, and even the curse of death {Radiation} didn't seem to be harming him in

any way.

"How did you resist it; the curse of death is what I'm talking about." Arad asked.

"I cut it, like everything else." Kayden replied with a passive face as if it were normal, "Those small things flying in the air, I cut them all." He lifted his arm up, "Let me fix a misunderstanding, do you think your sneak explosion did this to me? You're wrong."

Six arms emerged from Kayden's torso and another pair of heads appeared out of his neck, "My kimono merely tore apart since I momentarily shifted back to my true form. Unlike you, I don't have scales to wear."

Blood lord Arad is facing off the demon of absolute destruction, who shall come on top?
