Chapter 8: 8

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Wandering Knight, I advise you to stay out of our Evil God Cult’s business, or else…”

Spits!

Before the black-robed man could finish his words, the red-haired man tilted his head and spat on the ground. He waved his Dark Knight’s one-handed sword impatiently.

“That’s enough. I have no respect for the Evil God Cult. A cult that kills people sets them on fire and digs people’s graves? Don’t you have any shame? Also, don’t threaten me. I’ve probably killed more cultists than you’ve ever seen.”

As he spoke, the red-haired man took out a badge that emitted a faint white-gold light from his pocket and tossed it around.

“Do you recognize what this is?”

“Is this…”

The black-robed man had excellent eyesight. He could clearly see the badge from afar. He then took a few steps back in shock. His voice was hoarse, and he said through gritted teeth,

“You’re an Honorary Knight of the Church!”

“It’s good that you know.”

The red-haired man slowly pinned the badge on his chest. Then, he swung his sword and said coldly, “Are you ready to die?”

Even before he finished his words, the red-haired man stepped on the ground and rushed over at a breakneck speed. Halfway through, he swung his sword, and the red crescent moon from before shot straight at the black-robed man.

Whoosh!

Bang! Bang!

Two loud bangs suddenly came from the rooftop. Immediately after, the rooftop collapsed, and two black figures charged straight at the red-haired man, interrupting his next attack.

The gray fog shield conjured by the black-robed man blocked the red crescent moon. However, it was now on the verge of collapsing and dissipating.

“Kill him!” The black-robed man ordered in a gloomy tone.

“Roar!”

Two black shadows roared and fought fiercely with the red-haired man.

Swoosh!

Rip!

The black shadows were also wearing black robes, but the robes were cut into pieces by the red-haired man’s sword during the fierce battle, causing their actual appearance to be revealed.

Parr saw that the two black shadows were also zombies. However, their skins were not pale but bronze in color instead, and they looked adamant. The red-haired man’s sword could only produce sparks upon slashing at their bodies.

However, this did not mean that the red-haired man was disadvantaged. The newly appeared bronze zombies had high defense and strong attacks. Despite possessing high speed, they somehow could not land their attacks on the red-haired man.

The red-haired man moved nimbly between the two bronze zombies. Every time his sword attacked, it would always land on the necks or heads of the bronze zombies. Due to his multiple attacks, white marks appeared on the vital parts of the two bronze zombies. It was only a matter of time before they were defeated.

‘D*mn it!’

The black-robed man cursed in his heart. He took a few quick steps, walked past Parr, and approached the red-haired man. He raised both hands and chanted a language that Parr did not understand.

“Weakening!”

Parr saw the red-haired man fighting the bronze zombies pause for a moment. The two bronze zombies seized the opportunity. With two whooshing sounds, they threw their hard bronze fists at the red-haired man’s head.

Bang!

The red-haired man raised his sword to block the attack at this critical moment. This was the first time the bronze zombies attacked the red-haired man since this battle started.

After taking a few steps back, the red-haired man stabilized his body and felt that his strength had been significantly weakened. However, this did not matter. He glanced at the badge on his chest.

Buzz!

The badge let out a faint buzz. The light emitted from it shone for a moment, and the weakening spell on the red-haired man’s body disappeared.

“Again!”

With a swing of the sword in his hand, the red-haired man again charged forward and engaged the bronze zombies in a fierce battle.

“D*mn it! D*mn the Holy Knight!”

The black-robed man cursed loudly. He knew that his ordinary spells were no longer effective against the red-haired man. He could only go all out and use a strong attack now before the red-haired man killed the bronze zombies.

Why did the black-robed man not retreat instead? It is because he came here for a purpose! Cultists were not lunatics who randomly killed people. They would only wreak havoc upon reaching their destination.

“According to my visions during the last sacrifice, the map fragment that shows the resting place of the Evil God is located in this village. I haven’t found it yet. How could I leave?”

The black-robed man strengthened his belief. The faint light in his eyes began to shine. The air around his body began to fill with a thin gray fog. He spoke a series of mysterious words in a hurry.

“The ruler of all things, the eternal existence that cuts the boundary between life and death…”

His voice was frail at first, but it became louder and louder. It reached the ears of the red-haired man and Parr, who was tied up.

“This is bad! This madman wants to sacrifice his life!”

The red-haired man tried to break through the encirclement of the bronze zombies and interrupt the black-robed man’s chanting, but the bronze zombies persisted. However, their skins began to crack due to the attacks from the red-haired man. 

Moments later, the two bronze zombies went on full offensive mode and blocked the red-haired man’s path, buying precious time for their master.

“Death is not the end, but a new beginning…”

The black-robed man continued to chant the mysterious spell loudly. The gray fog around him gradually condensed into an illusory sickle above his head. It seemed that the spell was about to end.

“You wish to unleash your ultimate skill? Do you really think I’d allow that to happen? I have my ultimate skill too!”

The red-haired man’s sword suddenly glimmered with a red light.

“Shadow Split!”

The red-haired man swung his sword, and two red shadows appeared. The shadows were similar in size to the red-haired man, but their faces were blurry. They were also holding a sword in each hand, though it looked blurry. However, as long as they could handle the bronze zombies, they would have accomplished their purpose.

Bang!

The two shadows swung their swords and directly knocked away the bronze zombies. At this point, there was no longer any barrier between the red-haired man and the black-robed man.

“Charge!”

The red-haired man took a step forward. With a bang, the ground where he stepped on shattered. His body rushed to the front of the black-robed man at a breakneck speed. He held his sword with both hands and slashed down with full force.

Slash!

Bang!

Two translucent shields were conjured from the black-robed man’s body at the last moment. It turned out that he had the same skill as Colin! However, this did not work. The red-haired man’s powerful slash shattered both shields.

Bang!

The broken shields exploded and emitted a shockwave that pushed the red-haired man one step away from the black-robed man. This bought the black-robed man time to cast his ultimate spell. 

“Great Evil God, please brandish your sickle…”

The gray fog sickle above the black-robed man’s head began to swing. The red-haired man roared. His body spun, and the sword in his hand slashed horizontally at the black-robed man.

“Double Slash!”

Slash! Slash! 

Unfortunately, his attacks were blocked again. Another shield was conjured by sacrificing the gray fog chains that bound Parr. The black-robed man had meant to use this trick as a last resort.

“This is bad!”

The red-haired man raised his head and realized that the gray fog sickle above the black-robed man’s head was about to be swung. A bitter smile appeared on the black-robed man’s face. Red light rose from the red-haired man’s body, and he was ready to face the attack head-on. However, he suddenly noticed that the sickle had exploded into a cloud of gray fog.

“No way! How did that happen?”

The red-haired man lowered his head to look at the black-robed man with a stunned expression.

“Cough!”

The black-robed man’s ultimate spell was prevented because he was coughing blood and couldn’t finish the spell. He realized that a black sword had penetrated his chest. The black sword and the pain caused his vision to go black. He fell to the ground and died.

Thud!

Parr pulled out the black sword from the black-robed man’s corpse and looked up at the red-haired man with a shocked expression. A big smile appeared on his face.

“Mister Red Hair, are you surprised? Hehehe…”

“Good boy!”

The red-haired man who had recovered from his shock looked carefully at Parr and laughed.

“Hahaha.”

…

Flashback.

“Double Slash!”

The red-haired man spun his body and slashed at the black-robed man. At this moment, the black-robed man’s fingers moved slightly, and the gray fog chains binding Parr’s body exploded into a cloud of gray fog. The gray fog transformed into a shield to block the red-haired man’s attack.

At this moment, the black-robed man’s casting was about to be completed. Just as he felt that victory was within his grasp, Parr stood up.

“Recover!”

Parr used his Life Energy Points to restore his Stamina and Spirit Points at the most critical moment. He did not use much, only one point for each.

Stamina: 10/100

Spirit Points: 10/10

Life Energy Points: 28

Spiritual Energy Points: 46

Having regained his combat strength, Parr picked up his black sword and thrust it at the black-robed man’s defenseless back.

“Watch out for my righteous backstab!”

The black-robed man was truly defenseless. All of his energy was focused on his ultimate spell. He would never have thought that Parr would suddenly appear to attack him. He thought that Parr’s talent could only restore Stamina! Moreover, Parr had already recovered twice in a row earlier. How did he manage to recover once again? Did he have such a heaven-defying talent?

Two large dots appeared on the black sword’s blade when the black-robed man died— one red and one white.
