Chapter 184:Testing Water[3]

Fending off against the scarecrow, Kai with a bewildered expression fell into deep contemplation after hearing Frank's bizarre laughter echoing across the vast place.

Amidst the thundering explosion, the sound of his laugh was quite clear showing the intensity of his laugh and the suppressed emotions behind it.

Belonging to the same generation, all of them had gone through countless hardships. Due to being popular both in society and the military, they have earned quite several nicknames.

They were a team that was quite famous during their prime.

Kevin was known for being an Eccentric King who was more popular than his title Ice Emperor.

As a man standing on the epitome of handsomeness all due to his mother's genes, Kai was called The Killer of Hearts, The King of Charm, and The Sculptor Of God.

Yeah, same may nitpick and call him the King of Narcissists behind his back but he dont give a damn.

He knew they were just jealous of their wives getting charmed by him with just a smile.

But what could they do except to blame god?

Even with his odd brown hair and purple eyes combination, he was a killer man.

While Kevin was known for his tricky ways of using Ice ability and for being a salted fish, he was known for his handsome face, killing the ladies with his charm.

No matter how much he aged, one couldn't even find a ripple of age over his face. Even now, he looks like a 2020-year-old lively boy.

However, when it comes to Frank, he was the weirdest of their bunch.

One shouldn't judge his calm demeanor from the outside, this guy was outright crazy from the inside.

Due to keeping a stoic face, and a cold face on which they haven't seen a single laugh.

He was called The Man Who Never Laughs.

Frank had always been calm and collected no matter the situation, no one had ever seen him lose his senses or show any emotions on that cold frozen face.

Few might have seen his anger or smile but no one had heard his laugh except them.

It's not that he doesn't smile; rather, no one had seen him laughing in public. He always maintained a dignified expression and there was never a stain on his moral conduct.

Even when he married Aria since people couldn't target him, they could only target Aria as everyone knew the situation is ought to be perilous otherwise things wouldn't have developed into that step.

However, those who were close to Frank only knew that there was a wild side to him.

Naturally, they have seen him laugh when they were younger but as they grew Frank started losing that liveliness.

Instead of taking a step back, Frank took on the challenge and fought with many but in the end, he was saddened not finding a worthy opponent who could arouse that feeling of excitement.

It was all due to his power.

His bloodline power was too overpowered making all his fights quite easy to win.

Due to his strike rates, he was also called The Man Who's Attack Never Miss.

Once he drew his sword seriously, no one had ever managed to dodge his sword strike.

Whether it was Sword Saint or the hidden powerhouse, none of them were able to fend off his attack.

Naturally, Frank can't kill them but if he makes a move it's a sure hit.

He can fight without using bloodline power but without using full strength to fight and purposefully giving the enemy an edge wasn't enough to satisfy his craving.

Only when you can dodge his strike, will he show his real power and can fight to his full potential.

The reason for Frank's bored expression was that he had never got the chance to use his bloodline ability to the fullest. He knew that once he activated his powers, winning was just a small matter.

His ability was so defying that when it came to one on one fights, he was invincible. After all, what can a person do when another person manipulates time and kills you even before you can react?

Kai shook his head and focused on his battle.

The Scarecrow after seeing its scythe being dismantled stared at the broken pieces of the weapon on the ground and then at its empty hands with a loss.

Its head dropped down and the pair of fleshy eyes stitched over its face shrunk with a saddened look.

Kai for a moment stepping back rubbed his eyes a few times in bewilderment while wondering if this was a dream.

'What the hell am I seeing?'

'What's with that loom?'

'Wait, how can a scarecrow even if it's a puppet make such an expression?'

"Hey, girl, what's the matter with that doll of yours? Why is it making such a face?"

"What? Are you surprised just by this? Did you think of me as an ordinary puppeteer?"

Shana folded her arms over her chest and raised her chin towards the sky giving a heroic pose.

"Don't you dare compare me with those ordinary puppeteers!"

"I am the best of the best."

"I am the Queen Of Puppets."

"Each of my creations is very much alive."

"Stop telling lies, you brat. Bragging makes the noise grow longer."Kai who was teasing her suddenly saw something ominous that almost made him puke.

A mass of wriggling flesh appeared over the scarecrow's arms and extended outward for long gnarly claws.

Letting a terrific shriek similar to the cawing sound of a crow, it scratched the air in front of it.

Kai's eyes narrow and his image blurred.

BOOM!

Three scratch marks tore the air, hitting the spot Kai stood.

A large crowd mark appeared over the group clearing the dirt.

Swoosh!

The Scarecrow, seemingly angered by the loss of its weapon, swung its claws frenziedly like a maniac.

It seemed to have broken out of Shana's control much to Kai's surprise.

Even Shana had an astonished look but it lasted only for a moment and was replaced with a cute laugh.

White marks started stretching from Scarecrow's hands drawing over the place.

SCREECH!SCREECH!SCREECH!

A void was created in an instant and everything that stood in the scratch mark was cut into pieces.

Seeing it destroying everything, Kai took a solid step.

Gripping his sword tightly, Kai gripped his sword tightly and enveloped it with a rocky layer and hardened it to the maximum limit.

Arching his body backwards, summoning every ounce of his strength, he whipped his hand forward propelling his sword that shot into the air creating an air ripple that exploded with a sonic boom.

BOOM!

The barrier of sound broke, and the air shattered like glass in its path creating a topping shockwave across the place as his weapon-like hurtled forward with a might of artillery disrupting the whole place.

"Dodge it!! "Shana screamed hurriedly while moving her fingers to command.

The Scarecrow turned around in time but before it could do anything, the sword pierced its chest creating a huge hole.

The Scarecrow's body jolted across the ground due to the momentum that dragged it over a hundred meters.

But as soon as it stopped, many small crow puppets emerged from its chest and shot at Kai like a beam of light.

Sensing danger, Kai waved his hand shooting small sharp rocks that smashed the crows into pieces while the Scarecrow tried to stitch its chest.

At that time, Shana spoke hurriedly.

Kai who was defending with a blank expression snapped out of his thought.

"Sorry, I have to leave now. I will kill you next time."Shana waved and collected the puppet hurriedly.

"Hey girl, wait for me! I still haven't played enough! I have yet to use my bloodline ability!!"Kai screamed and followed her.

of it cracked, forming a void from a huge palm with an astonishing speed.

BANNG

"Girl, didn't your parents teach you manners that it's bad to leave in the middle of a fight?"

"Shut the hell up bastard."

Kai taunted her but his words struck in the middle of his tongue as the space in front of it cracked, forming a void from a huge palm with an astonishing speed.

BANNG

Tearing the air, Kai's figure flew across the sky, crashing against the trees on the ground. Breaking multiple trees, his body slid against the ground and tore through the ground leaving a trail of crevice while smashing the tree trunk into wood pulp.

A huge layer of dust prevailed from which Kai's coughing sound echoed.

Cough...Cough....

"This girl's temper is too wild. That huge behemoth might be her trump card."

This girl had also piqued his interest greatly.

Puppeteer was quite a troublesome field and not many could reach the end of the path of Puppet Mastery.

Handling puppets put a huge strain on the soul.

People who are stubborn to follow this path often end up in the grave due to being unable to handle mental strain.

Others who managed to stay alive lost their sanity.

A higher-realm puppeteer can control thousands or more than ten thousand puppets of the low realm but as they grow, they are unable to handle the puppet of the same stage.

So, the highest-known realm a puppeteer can control is at 7-Star.

If you try to go beyond that, it will either cost your sanity or your life.

But this little girl of short stature was able to control a 9-Star puppet without any repercussions. Even though he saw it himself, he was shocked out of his wits at first when he saw this.

Seeing those stitched around her whole body shows signs of an experiment and Scarecrow puppet that had a hint of spirituality, he knew that things weren't simple in the background.

If not for her other two partners' lives in danger, she mightn't have pulled out that puppet that could even break through the void.

'This girl is the real threat, not the other two. Damn, you two chose an easy opponent and gave me this fierce tigress.'

'I am afraid that I will get hurt badly if I forcefully drag her down but as Duke, I can't lose my face.'

"Little Loli came here. Let this daddy play with you a bit more."Kai shouted and chased after her.

He was curious about Frank's fight so he decided to pretend to be chasing her.

.....

"Hahahahahhah!"

Frank laughed wildly after Zod addressed him as untouchable just because he dodged a few attacks of his.

"What are you laughing at?"Zod spoke with a distorted expression.

The aura of a 9-Star exploded crushing the ground and making the whole place tremble.

"I am laughing at your naivety."Frank sneered and pulled out his sword from the sheath with a flash.

And at the very next second, the world crashed onto Zod destroying his beliefs.
