"Wow... they are trying hard." Raith commended as he watched the fire erupting filling that particular area with the royal asura in the middle of it.
Whoosh!
However, with a swing of his hand, everything was cleared by a loud wind blast—the wind blast sent all of them spiraling away from the asura, who now turned back to Raith.
A smile appeared on his lips, "of course. You have to be this impressive to be able to cause Egard-Hearl to be wary of you. Now now, what exactly is it that I need to be wary of"
He was there a minute ago but just as he spoke, he was here, his hand on Raith's neck, lifting Raith while grinning.
"What trick did you use? I am sure I killed you. I squeezed your heart and made sure you were dead. So how are you still alive?" He asked, tightening his grip on Raith's neck.
Even though he was asking a question he didn't behave as though he wanted an answer because he didn't relieve Raith from the tight grip of his hands—there was no way the poor guy would have talked even if he wanted to.
"Shall I just kill you again to find out?!"
SCRREEEEEEETTTCCHH
"TAKE YOUR DIRTY HANDS OFF MY KING!"
Antares screamed as he lunged into the air from behind, his wings turning into a blur as they flapped and propelled him ten times faster than they normally would, his body was like it was tearing into the wind. He was desperate to destroy the gold man standing before him.
But all of it was futile.
He paused mid-air and hung there as the royal asura raised one finger.
"I do find another thing fascinating. You have the power to control creatures of shadow and death. That makes you genuine but I am sure this isn't what Egard-Hearl saw in you. So why don't you show me what you showed him."
Even though he was saying that he was still tightening his hands around his neck—made Raith found himself unreasonable and psychopathic.
'Ah! Okay, this is it!'
...
SSHHH...
The asura suddenly appeared far from Raith who now fell on the floor coughing and gasping for breath.
"Tsk tsk, he clicked his tongue and looked at Raith's hand where Black had materialized. "You have quite the dangerous weapon there don't you?" He said, his eyes fixated on it, almost as if they were admiring it.
Cough cough
Cough
'Shut the fuck up and get up will you.' Black ordered harshly.
Raith surprisingly obeyed silently and stood up, wiping the blood of his mouth with the hinge of his hand.
'Hey, you, cover his head now!!'
The black ring on Raith's hand dissolved into smoke and adorned his head with a helmet.
[You have equipped Helmet Of The Shadow God]
[Due to the 'Helmet Of The Shadow God' your strength will rise by +30]
[Your mind is in a state of weariness]
[Mentality will be revitalized due to the effect of 'Helmet Of The Shadow God']
[All Mental skills will receive high proficiency points when used while 'Helmet Of The Shadow God' is on]
'Wow? This had an effect like this?'
ραndαsnοvεl.cοm Raith was shocked, apart from the fact that it made him look super cool he hadn't given thought to the usefulness of the helmet. The 30+ strength gain was nothing now that Raith was strong.
But this mental revitalization? It was all he was looking for!
And just like the effect insinuated, a freshness entered Raith's head. It was as if the helmet itself had a cooling effect.
"Waaahh, this is so good," Raith mumbled with an echoing voice. "Wow, it even has a voice-changing effect."
'Yes it does so face your damn battle'
"Right," Raith looked over to the royal asura.
'I couldn't stress about it before because every attempt to think was aching me seriously. I felt like I was going to die from a headache but now that the headache is gone. I feel normal again.'
Until now, Raith had almost thought that the asura was the reason while [Multiple Cognitive Resonance] and all his perception wasn't working. Although the asura was fast enough to evade Raith's senses, it wasn't the reason. This was an effect of Raith's mental tiredness.
The analysis from before, even though it was completed Raith couldn't propagate it. He didn't know what it was about—not until the moment he wore the helmet.
He finally understood it. Every single thing about the ability of the bastard in front of him. He finally knew.
"It is useless, whatever you try to do it is useless against me. I am the best warrior amongst the asura. You cannot defeat me." He said, spreading his arms proudly as he slowly took steps forward.
Raith stretched his sword forward to him.
"I know your trick. I know the reason why you seem like that big of a deal. I wasn't able to sense it before because I was in a bad state but now I can very much. You can try that nasty trick of yours again." Raith taunted.
The royal asura smirked and immediately—
Thwuack!!
Contrary to how easy Raith thought it was going to be now that he could perceive the asura— he was flung away by the impact of force produced by the asura meeting his belatedly raised sword.
Raith tumbled and rolled away. It was still the same thing even though he blocked it with a sword, the damage he received made both his hand and the sword stiff and then coursed through his muscles. But the difference this time was that he saw the attack and to Raith, even though it wasn't as he expected it to be, this was still progress.
The royal asura was standing, looking at his hand with a frown.
'Impossible, did he actually see it coming? Did he see through my space veil? This is impossible, it makes no sense?' His eyes trembled as he refuted the reality of what had just transpired.
