Chapter 197 Last Night (Fate Bites Back)
As Chiron rampaged the Hall in his killing spree, the men and women of the Rapier clan did not stay idle. They also attacked.
However, the technique Chiron used allowed little opportunity for them to defend against his attacks.
Also, the more he killed, the more blood went up into the air that he could use as weapon.
A person would defend against the oncoming attack of blood jetting at him from the front. But once defended, the blood would splash out in different directions only to reassemble and jet through the person like a rain of needles.
In this manner, Chiron painted the hall in the most beautiful and attractive colour to the human eyes.
as he rampaged back and forth, he searched with his eyes for his goal. Of course, it was the genius of the Rapier clan.
All the other geniuses had given Chiron nothing A hundred Fate change points.
With the amount he was getting because of the chaos Emma was causing in the clan, a hundred points from Rattle was definitely going to let his points reach the required number for him to heal his Aura Dantain.
Chiron in his crazy state caught sight of Rattle in a corner of the room.
And for a brief second, both of them exchanged eye contact. 𝑓re𝘦𝔀𝗲𝘣𝘯𝘰νℯ𝒍.c𝗼m
Rattle suddenly felt a strong shiver run down his spine.
He was a very smart person and was naturally gifted with a grasp of human perception that he displayed exceptionally on the battlefield.
The moment he and Chiron met each other in the eyes, he instantly understood that he was the target of the crazy intruder.
This made him panic and he subconsciously took several steps back. He understood that if he was met by the crazy boy slaughtering his clan men like chickens, he would not even know how he might die.
Killian who was the Chief of the clan was currently for some reason not in the Inn. 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖
He was the only person of the copper rank that came close enough to even standing Chiron.
Chiron jumped and somersaulted. Where necessary, he would dodge, and when necessary, he would wave his hand for the blood blades to slice the men around him.
Someone soon noticed Chiron was heading for Rattle.
"Protect the young master!!!"
Many cultivators roused their spiritual energy as they rushed to defend Rattle, but Chiron cut them down like they were just annoying flies.
Slowly, he got closer to Rattle. Every wave of his hand was one more cultivator cut down that wanted to defend Rattle.
Step by step, Rattle could feel the descent of the Fate he would never be able to escape.
He held his sword in front of his chest. His stance was right and his spiritual energy was high up in the air in defence. However, the confidence that he would survive this fled him like a plague.
This was fear.
He could feel beads of sweat drop down his forehead and his hands around the Hilt of his sword held on tighter than ever.
His sword shook in the vibration of his nervousness.
*Slash!*
Chiron cut down the last person obstructing him from harvesting the genius before his eyes.
Chiron's smile was baptized with blood that made him look like a tiger enjoying its meal.
*Swoosh!*
Chiron raised his hand and brought it down with so much force that it looked like the descent of a giant's hand on an ant.
Rattle knew it. Or rather, he could see the end of his short and unexplored life.
However, just when the blood blade was about to hit, Devil's touch suddenly appeared before Chiron and Chiron took a big jump back.
*BOOM!*
"HAHAHAHA!!!" There was a low laughter like the crackling of thunder.
Chiron frowned.
There was suddenly an old-looking man in front of Rattle.
"Not bad for an evil child!" the old man complimented.
"EVIL CHILD!?" Chiron was very familiar with that term.
That was what members of the Holy Church called him.
"Hmmm! surprised to see me? Oh wait! you don't recognize me in this form." The old man suddenly waved his hand as he removed the cloak on his body.
His face suddenly changed to a face that Chiron recognized. However, this was not a person he was expecting to see now.
In fact, Chiron had made a mental note to avoid this person as much as possible.
That was because the power energy he had sensed from this person after their last confrontation was not something he could stand against. In fact, Chiron had not exactly sensed the energy from him. What he felt was a danger that oozed out of the man's body.
This was Dolly, or as he is better known in the Church, this was the Bronze Knight, Knight Sheyi.
Just now, Chiron was about to strike Rattle down, but he could not because he had felt danger right within his soul.
Also, there were sudden alerts from the system.
<Host has allowed Fate without defending against its effects for too long>
<Punishment fee, -100 points. All Stats Halved>
<Host, Defend against Fate>
<Host, Defend against Fate's knights>
<Host, defend against Fate's compounding attacks>
All the alerts that had pooped up were not good news.
Firstly, Chiron had lost 300 points, his stats had been Halved and then a compounding of Fate's attack was present.
This had never happened before. But from the side of his eyes, he saw the button.
<See how Fate changed>
He did not want to, but instinctively, he opened it.
He frowned tightly.
"SHIT! SHIT!! SHIT!!!" He cursed in his mind. If he had known, he would have just planned for Elder Harden's death.
It was now that he realized that he had not gotten the alert and reward from the last time Fate attacked.
The negligence, and over confidence of that time had now come to bite him in the back.
Chiron's fighting ability had just been halved, and he was to face a cultivator of the Bronze rank.
Without a doubt, survival was far below Zero...
