BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1443 Death Descent
Theo smirked. "Come out."
Theo\'s Death Avatar suddenly emerged from the ground. Normally, the Death Avatar would only release an immense Magic Power upon its summon, but there was one big difference this time.
Instead of Magic Power, the Death Avatar was excluding death itself.
[Underworld Dominion: Death Avatar (A) has now changed to Underworld Dominion: Death Avatar (S)]
[Opening the last seal of the Death Avatar.]
[Acquiring the fourth authority, Death Descent.]
Theo smirked and utilized its power. "Let\'s enjoy this fight a bit more, shall we?"
The entire world suddenly changed into endless darkness. But soon, a blood red moon illuminated the entire area, weakening the power of the Dark King. There was no cloud today because it would only just weaken the blood moon\'s light.
Now that the place had changed, Theo finally used his new ability, muttering in a low voice. "Death Descent."
The Death Avatar suddenly released a loud roar.
"Shaaaaa!"
Blood colored threads suddenly appeared out of thin air, attaching themselves to the Dark King.
"This is…" The Dark King widened his eyes in shock. He never expected that skill could actually touch him like this. Without hesitation, he used the Dark Power to influence these threads before breaking them.
However, he somehow couldn\'t affect it.
Theo smirked because he knew the ability\'s true power. It was only the path of his death, it didn\'t do anything to him. So, even if the Dark King used his power to erase the threads, he wouldn\'t be able to do it unless he covered the entire path that could lead to his death.
\'Now I can see why the Death Avatar, especially the Fourth Authority, is the signature move of the Goddess of Death.\' Theo smirked excitedly because the ability had one more catch.
Skill: Death Descent (Fourth Authority)
Effect: Revealing the path of one\'s death.
The description alone was simple but overpowered. But it also ended up in the hands of someone with the power of reality.
Theo leaped forward and swung his sword.
The Dark King was still confused by this power and immediately used his sword to block Theo\'s.
However, their focus shifted to the thread on the Dark King\'s hand.
Without hesitation, Theo hurriedly struck the hand instead of the sword.
The Dark King didn\'t expect that the red thread actually showed his weakness. It revealed the path to his death, starting from the removal of his hand.
When Theo struck that spot, the Dark King managed to pull his sword back, but Theo still continued and struck the Dark King\'s sword, knocking the blade off his hand.
"!!!" The Dark King was startled because this was the first time Theo overpowered him. This new ability was so overpowered.
\'I felt death earlier. But this thread… I don\'t think they\'re the ones to be killing me. Instead, it\'s a series of instructions that can show me how I\'ll die. In other words, as long as I know what will happen to that area, I can still counter Theo.
Theo smirked and continued moving forward, slashing his sword according to the thread.
"I got you. You shouldn\'t show this thread." The Dark King smirked and spun his body before striking Theo\'s sword. He had predicted this, so the power behind his attack could be stronger. This way, Theo had no choice other than to drop his sword.
However, when he was spinning his body, he actually felt a sharp pain on his waist and stopped his swing, realizing that Theo\'s sword had changed into a spear and grazed his skin.
"Huh?" The Dark King became confused again.
Theo smirked. "Yeah, maybe I should hide the threads since it can be better for me to be the only one to know the path to your death. However, don\'t forget that I\'m the Reality King. Changing the reality of your death is as simple as flipping over my hand. I wonder if those threads you see are real or not."
"!!!" The Dark King came to a realization. The reason why Theo showed all these threads and even told him his power was to make him doubt Theo.
On the one hand, the thread might be real and Theo would follow it. But that particular thread might just be an illusion that hid the real thread like how Theo attacked him the second time. However, Theo was the Reality King, manipulating those threads were simple tasks for him.
In other words, his mind had been split into three. The first one was thinking about those threads that could become his weakness. The second one was predicting Theo\'s attack like a normal fight. And the last one was observing Theo\'s movement and maintaining his instinct to react to all movements.
This was Theo\'s way of making him think which one was real and which one was fake.
Theo liked the confusion on the Dark King\'s face as he immediately waved his swords continuously, following the threads.
As expected, the Dark King could only follow his movement because the moment he let his guard down, Theo might twist his death path according to what he liked. And with Theo\'s weapon that could change into four different forms, there was a chance that Theo would smash his shield or shoot him again.
"Kh." The Dark King gritted his teeth while trying to figure out a way to counter this new ability. Still, it wouldn\'t be that easy because the Death Avatar was Hel\'s favorite ability and this skill had been reinforced by Theo\'s cunningness and Reality Order. No one could know whether it was true or not anymore.
"Come on!" Theo became energetic and smashed the sword against the Dark King, suppressing him.
Of course, Theo slightly turned crazy because he was lamenting about his choice earlier. Each A Rank Skill could give him more than one billion Zils. Yet, he had to use hundreds of them to upgrade the skill. It was too much even for him. If not for the fact that the skills actually came from him killing the Mythical Rank Monsters, he would have spat blood.
