Chapter 74 Garuda vs Six Prodigies (2)

After Rain was blown away by the attack, something in him awoke.

It was his instinct for—survival and slaughter—that awoke. With his sense of battle, he knew there was no probability of winning this fight unless he used everything.

He would most likely survive if he focused on escaping. But he wouldn't be Rain Violetstar if he ran away from a demon.

'Kill. Awaken. Kill. Awaken.'

Rain was not satisfied with merely surviving. He wanted more. To kill the demon. To eradicate the demon. To erase its existence from the face of the universe.

'Kill. Awaken. Kill. Awak…'

A voice rang through his head. Like a broken cacophony, it repeated until the slumbering beast within him was disturbed.

'Kill.'

Then, Rain's eyes turned blank. He had a skill that accompanied him since he started as a ranker—it was a skill he never used due to his trauma.

However, his instinct to survive and kill the demon overrides his trauma at the moment. It unconsciously drove his mana and touched upon that skill.

[??? Mode]

A skill that made him go berserk and turn into a mindless slaughterer. It raises his strength and powers by another spectrum for three minutes.

However, during these three minutes, he had no control over his body in exchange for such overwhelming strength.

It was like an imitation of the phenomenon [Mana Frenzy] but this skill made it occur autonomously by the user.

'Kill the demon. No matter what.'

Then, Rain lost consciousness.

***

'What is this pressure I'm feeling? How did he get so strong in such a short period of time? This is...'

Before Garuda could turn around, Rain raised the silver sword in his hand as its sharp edge flickered with a strange light.

[Blade of Beginning and End: Genesis]—!

Garuda abruptly fell into a trance. Then as though Genesis itself occured, the sword landed on his body and cut off his entire arm with ease.

Swoosh!

For a moment, nobody could react. It was too incredulous and jarring, even for the demon of pride himself.

However, Lance only took a moment to snap back to reality. He masterfully wielded his spear and followed up an attack.

[Schutlz Series: Stroke of Unending Light]

The spear spun in a horizontal slash, aimed towards the heavily wounded right arm of Garuda. Since the latter was still in a trance, it landed with ease.

Like the judgment of heaven, the light concentrated over the tip of the spear and pierced through the body of the demon.

Then came the searing pain.

"Ah... AHHHHH!"

Garuda instantly snapped back and howled uncontrollably. He felt the burning light enter his insides, inflicting excruciating pain.

Using the opportunity, Rain moved once again in an efficient manner.

[Blade of Beginning and End: Void]—!

But this time before it could hit Garuda, the latter immediately reacted. He snapped his fingers and blew the two away!

Whoosh!

Using the unique power of pride, along with mana, Garuda could instantly inflict "force" on anything in his vision with a mere snap.

Lance flew away with a low grunt. He stabbed the hilt of his spear to the ground and forcefully stopped his body from moving.

In contrast, Rain didn't do anything but lightly throw his silver sword towards the demon.

Then, he disappeared in a flash.

[Sword God Steps: First Movement]—!

Under everyone's eyes, Rain reappeared in front of Garuda with the silver sword in his hand. It was as though he teleported.

Rain raised his sword and launched a vertical slash.

Garuda tightly clenched his hand as he retaliated.

Boom!

The sword and the fist connected, unleashing immense "force" on the surroundings from their collision.

Garuda grunted in pain, but in the end, his strength won over the fight. The silver sword in Rain's hand exploded, unable to handle the attack.

Nonetheless, it was still terrifying and shocking for Garuda that Rain managed to even deal some damage to him.

"You…"

Garuda knitted his brows in confusion. He infused some mana to his right arm but he was unable to regrow it fully.

"Just what did you eat or do to become as strong as a noble demon in a short period of time?"

From his estimations, his injury this time was too heavy. He would need a couple of days to recover fully from that attack.

Although Rain had immense potential, Garuda dismissed him because it was still merely potential and not yet true strength.

However, contrary to his expectations, Rain immediately became as strong as a noble demon or C ranker after being whisked away.

Rain tried to punch, but Garuda attacked first with immense force, blowing the former away from his sight.

Swoosh!

The battlefield turned silent and tense.

Everyone snapped back from their disbelief and finally managed to comprehend what had just happened.

Garuda looked at his right arm and shook his head. He withdrew his Incomplete Territory and directed it towards his right arm.

Within a few seconds, the black substance with a glistering red hue transformed into a shadowy right arm.

Andrea and Juris were elated that they were finally released. But before they could move, immense force suddenly pressed down on them and knocked them unconscious.

Bam! Bam!

Garuda contemplated killing them but decided to do so later. He wanted to eat his prey alive to make them experience torture.

Without giving the two another glance, he swept his gaze through the battlefield and looked straight at the eyes of the prey standing before him.

Elizabeth, Sumi, Roshia, and Zyrish all stared back with varying expressions. But there was no fear in their pupils.

"You know what pisses me off more than failing my mission? It's those eyes of yours that have no fear in front of me. It makes me feel like I'm not worth a damn,"

Garuda clicked his tongue. He cracked his fingers each by each, inducing sudden force throughout the battlefield.

"But that won't stay for long. You would soon realize the superior difference between us. I am blessed of by the sin of Pride itself,"

"As the Baron of Pride, we were bestowed with two powers: the territory of pride, and the sinful power of pride. The latter… has a lot of uses and abilities, and one of them is that makes us stronger the more prideful our opponents are,"

"This is why continue—revel in that egotistical nature of yours. You, who were born of blessings beyond ordinary men. You, who possess status beyond peasants. Dwell, submerged, and drown from that arrogance and pride you exhibit,"

Garuda's lips slowly curled into a grin. He looked especially demonic as he faced the rest of the geniuses.

"And from that pride, you brats will suffocate alive. Be molded into a good meal as I devour you alive. I will teach you a lesson of despair as I slowly digest your insides,"

As the Baron of Pride spoke, his voice became more demonic and demonic until he finally stopped. He realized that they were still determined, making him elated.

Of course, it was not true that he grew stronger from the pride of his opponents. Only Marquiss could do that.

But it wasn't a complete lie.

After devouring the geniuses, Garuda could absorb their pride and further increase his strength to complete his territory.

He did that speech for one thing: to increase their resolve. He knew too many geniuses like them, those who never experienced true despair yet.

From his experience, they were the tastiest.

Rain and Lance, along with Sumi, Roshia, Zyrish, and Elizabeth prepared for the battle for their life with varying expressions.

"Hehehahaha, hehe, haha…! Hahahahahaha! Let's begin this slaughter then! Try and resist but it would end all the same…!"

Then, Garuda laughed as he dashed towards Lance.
