Chapter 181: A difference
“I will show you a difference between us now,” Alex’s countenance eased, his eyes clearing with a deep focus.
His killing intent thumped only within his heart. Everything else was in Alex’s perfect control, allowing him to bring out the wind’s prowess.
His swords shook with peculiar invisible energy, blending with power that had been slowly oozing out from Alex’s pores; the wind.
That invisible energy was [Sword Mana].
Alex tried using that power regularly. Even if he couldn’t produce too much of it, he wanted to adapt and tame that power to create his own. He had an easier path because of the two swords in his hands.
The Dullahan King’s Sword and Elias Deathwill’s First Prototype Sword.
The wind swirling around him stemmed from Stella’s Winged Bloodline. That power was also not something Alex could freely control. However, just like [Sword Mana], his body had tasted Stella’s bloodline in immense depth.
With her floating above him like a goddess, Alex also had more access to his sleeping and new bloodline.
[Once you lose someone precious to you, you will become aware of your surroundings. To not lose anyone else, you will seek immortality.
You will seek us.]
BANG!
Alex hadn’t felt the loss yet. No one precious to him had died in the Avander World, allowing him to move forward like he always did. But the sight of many people dying just from one player left a sour taste in Alex’s heart.
His flaw, personality, and heart immediately imagined a scene with one of his beloveds dying in the earth whirlpool… That weakness stemmed from his principles, and it was something deeply connected to his emotional heart.
Emotions took over him, fear prevailing within him.
[You will seek us.]
Alex skipped from one crumbled house to another, literally flying toward Dollar. Alex was much closer to the wind element in his current state with Stella above him. If he exerted all his knowledge and skills about that element, he would be able to push himself to the sky for a few seconds.
But with swords in his two hands, it would be quite hard. Nonetheless, Alex’s legs were enough to bring him to the villain.
DING! DING! DING!
The golden coins around Dollar shone brighter, their blinding light swathing Dollar’s body thoroughly. He was barely visible within that power.
He gathered that in his sword again, hurling it into Alex’s eyes.
This time, Dollar utterly failed.
Alex didn’t even close his eyes. He remained those wide open, staring at Dollar with boundless concentration. His black eyes sometimes flashed with golden color. Yet, Dollar couldn’t tell whether it was Alex absorbing his skill or he had just that kind of power within himself.
“I still can use the old trick,” Dollar smirked, tossing the coin to the side just before Alex’s swords clashed with his.
In his mind, he saw a scene with Alex’s eyes following the coin, exposing himself defenseless.
That image didn’t become a reality.
[You have lost -1230 HP!]
Dollar’s sword block Alex’s black weapon. The other sword tore through the villain’s shoulder, down his torso, leaving behind a considerable laceration. Dollar’s clothes widely opened, revealing the severe wound.
Worse, the Sword Mana in a wind mode permeated the injury, cutting Dollar’s flesh with small wind blades.
Alex’s eyes remained open, causing Dollar to part his lips, “You bastard… That skill is A-ranked! I’ve practiced it countless times and raised my proficiency! What kind of skill do you use to block it?!”
Dollar waved his sword, distancing himself a little.
Alex didn’t let him run away, though. Other than him persistently sticking close to Dollar, the forest fairies’ queen also had her guardians going after Dollar.
Yet, the villain avoided them all, not letting her scratch him. Of course, if that battle had an audience, everyone would think that Alex was better than Yumia.
However, Dollar paid more attention to her vines as he was sure that level hundred NPC would hurt him more than Alex.
He also had confidence in facing Alex’s swordsmanship.
Alas, Alex showed him a difference…
It was a difference in their motives.
“I’m not using a skill to stop your vision control, Dollar. My heart is brimming with killing intent, wanting to kill you… I will not lose sight of you… You will not escape me, for I want to kill you from the bottom of my heart!
For awakening those thoughts and his words within me, I will not stop until I see you drop dead!” Alex shouted.
Although many deaths pained him, the forest fairies were ultimately random people. They were friendly, and he had an excellent talk with many of them, but Remia and her closest ones would remain the most important in his heart.
For her happiness, keeping as many alive as possible was crucial. Killing the villain was also important.
And lastly, Dollar had compelled Alex to think emotionally about the future. Since he was a villain and player with less level than him, Alex could throw himself at him. He could kill and punish him for disturbing his path!
“Don’t make me talk about our skills, though… There’s a canyon gap between us here,” Alex arched his head back, glaring at Dollar before pouncing at him.
Dollar clicked his tongue, “A gigolo got mad, huh?!”
He gathered all light from his coins in his sword, “I pay the real money for it!” His system flashed with a new message.
His bank account significantly fell.
The coins lost their luster, dropping onto the earth whirlpool like wastes. His sword became the golden treasure. After Alex entered his reach, Dollar clenched his weapon tightly.
At last, Dollar sent his golden slash down.
Alex spun, gathering wind and coldness around his blades. He became a small tornado of energies, cutting at Dollar’s golden slash.
In just less than ten seconds, a wide gap once again appeared before them.
Alex tore through Dollar’s skill as if nothing.
‘That’s not just a level gap… This guy’s skills are beyond epic… Is he a legend?!’ Dollar inwardly shouted as he prepared for an epic escape, for he had an epic class!
His epic class allowed him to seek more things and get amazing quests worldwide. He dominated players and monsters with his skills, to say nothing of the residents!
But against the legend, Dollar was useless!
He could only escape… escape to the dungeon!
