Chapter 187 Harvesting A Genius...
Chiron had achieved what he was aiming for. He could feel that his muscle movement was better.
Although there was still a lot of room for improvement, it was still better than how terrible it used to be.
At least this way, he had a better chance when he was going to face Dolly.
Although there were other ways to face Dolly, and Chiron knew that he could always just run away, a small part of him wanted to strike swords with him.
Danger sharpens the senses and builds the success of a cultivator. If he fought Dolly, he knew he would be in absolute danger, but that also equated to growth for him.
The path to power and success was never met to be an easy one. if it was, everybody would choose its path, and no one would fear and respect those that had it. ƒ𝘳𝗲𝑒𝒘𝐞𝚋𝚗𝐨v𝘦l.𝒄o𝐦
Chiron could already feel a slight excitement of sorts. This was not excitement because he enjoyed pain. No! it was the excitement for more power that came with that pain.
His strong and only addiction was more power. He craved and wanted it all. It was just that simple.
At the moment, he was done with willow. Her usefulness to polish his skills had been maxed out.
It was time to extract the remaining and only usefulness she had remaining in his eyes.
Chiron kicked hard against the ground as his strike came for her abdomen.
Willow saw this.
Chiron taking the initiative to have attacked surprised her. After all, he had not done so all this while, but then again, this was a battleground.
She wanted to squat down and dodge the attack. However, she remembered the last time she had done such a thing. 𝒇𝙧𝚎𝐞𝙬𝒆𝑏𝑛𝑜v𝚎𝒍.c𝑜m
Chiron's blade had moved at a very weird angle and it immediately slashed at her back.
It was the first strike that activated the seal on her body.
There was no way she was going to make the same mistake twice.
This was one advantage that geniuses had over most of the masses. Their ability to learn from past experiences was incredible and frightening.
She was not going to lay herself like a lamb to the slaughter again.
This time around, she decided to jump up in the air. Her aim was to create a short distance between the both of them.
However, as she did, Chiron suddenly gave a smile at the edge of his lips.
Whether she had chosen up or down, her fate had already been sealed.
This was the mistake that not only Willow but everybody made.
When devils's touch was acttached to Chiron's hand, it was not just a sword. But a true extension of his will.
His movements were just to decisive the eyes on him.
In other words, Devil's touch was just an extension of himself.
Just like it had happened before.
Chiron's hand suddenly paused in the midst of its fierce momentum, and then it went upward with full incredible force.
The force of which was not any lesser than it was when he had started the strike.
This had taken Willow by surprise, and she could see it as his sword came for her head.
*DANG!*
A bell sound was heard as the seal that was on her body suddenly activated to defend her.
A light green hue suddenly surrounded her body.
However, this would not be enough to save her life this time around.
"Devil's touch, you may drink some!"
The moment Chiron gave Devil's touch permission, the edge of the blade glowed slightly red.
No one better than Willow had a clear view of this.
She saw as the blade pierced through the green hue that protected her body like the way a hot knife made its way through butter.
They say when one was about to die, it was expected that one's life would flash before their eyes.
However, for Willow, the universe was not just fair.
Just as she was seeing it, it was also ending.
*SLASH!*
Her head was displaced from her neck like the way an over ripe fruit flew off its tree.
Devil's touch had cleanly shaved off her head from her shoulder the moment it drank some of Chiron's death Aura.
Willow had jumped in the air to dodge the attack, and she was still airborne when Chiron's blade had reached her neck.
Devil's touch had cleared her neck, and her head flew high up in the the air.
When it landed, it rolled on the ground a bit, before stopping right in front of the side of the arena where the Chiefs were sitting.
? As the remaining blood leaked from her neck, her still eyes set upon her mother and father who had a blend of Horror, pain, sadness, and confusion written all over their faces.
<Congratulations Host, you have been awarded 100 points for changing Fate!"
Chiron was not expecting to see this. Initially, every time he had killed, it had only been 10 points for changing Fate.
However, willow was not an ordinary person. She was a genius that was supposed to carry and Change the Fate of many influential figures in the distant future. There was no way in hell that she was going to give him a mere 10 points.
However, her death still provided him with a hundred points.
He could not help but imagine how many points he would have drained from her if he had taken his time to arrange events that would change her future.
Maybe she alone would have given him the one thousand points he was after.
But then again, he had too much on his plate at the moment. He had to just take things as there were. Besides the deed has been done, and he had taken his reward.
The empty body of his latest future changer fell like a log of wood to the ground. Her once beautiful body slowly soaked in the filth of her own inner fluids.
From time to time, it spasmed on the ground. Like it was attempting not to accept its already sealed fate.
However, it soon went still.
There was suddenly a loud shout, "how dare YOU!!!"
As he heard it, a Saber sword technique was already heading for him....
