Chapter 150: [Reality V/S Illusion!]

[Adrian’s POV!]

Such a stupid mess.

[Gift: Just the way I want!

Grade: Mythical

Effect: Allows the user to reshape reality within the boundaries of the universe. The effect will only take place based on how much awareness the user has of the two realities that he wants to erase and create respectively.]

A Mythical Grade, huh? The description was rather simple, but that only made it much more dangerous. It meant lack of restrictions, and a whole lot of freedom in abusing the laws of nature.

Given how he was able to do it without any problems before, his energy pool must be really high. Though, the question is if it’s infinite or finite?

’Let’s pretend that he has an infinite reserve of energy for now and go with that,’ I thought before moving towards him. One step at a time as I looked at his skills and other stats. Unsurprisingly the stats were high, not as much as the cursed ones, but still.

Though…

’He doesn’t have a single skill…. Hmmm… not like he needs any,’ I sighed before reaching about 50 meters away from him.

"Hey, kid. Can you NOT kill him and the others here? Kind if important for one thing and another," I spoke as I kept walking. His eyes were focused on me.

"Are you a player?" He asked.

"You can say that," I answered.

"Then I can’t. I found this Boss Monster first. Sorry buddy, I can’t let you hog the rewards. Finders keepers, you know?" He added.

As I suspected. He thinks of them as NPCs and bosses, huh? He looks human so I guess it’s a world where MMORPG is a thing? Maybe. Probably. Might visit there later… that is if it still exists.

"Then I guess, I have to fight for it," I sighed before his smile widened before he spoke," you are going to lose. You sure you want to go with it? Might not be a pleasant experience."

’A fight with a guy who can control reality, huh?’ A smile appeared on my face as I increased my senses as far as I could and prepared for the battle. Let’s hope it’s as fun as it looks.

Turrets. About a dozen of them appeared in front of me, targeting my body before I created an illusion of myself standing at the same place where I was. And then completely hiding my presence, I jumped away from there while the turrets shot a barrage of bullets at my illusion.

Standing on the air above, I observed the whole thing as the turrets attacked that illusion. And after a few seconds of non-stop firing, the smoke slowly cleared as my illusion stood there without a single scratch on his body.

"You are strong. But you are not going to be able to take the next one," he spoke as he created a dozen more and then a dozen more. Each other seemingly carried more than a normal bullet. If I were correct they all carried different elemental bullets that were seemingly powerful.

’Though it’s not gonna change-’

As I was thinking, I saw the bullets showering at my illusion again. Though…

The illusion took all the hits, turning into smithereens. I didn’t do any changes in the illusion, it all happened on its own, as that illusion, or what was barely left of it, stood there in the same position as before.

As the barrage of bullets stopped, I slowly ’healed’ the illusion at a rapid speed. First it was his heart and brain, then the other organs around it. Finally I showed black bones instead of white to grab that guy’s attention, while I continued ’healing’ the illusion back to its prime health.

’Hmmm. Did the illusion get hurt because he wanted to? But then why didn’t it die completely? Given the amount of power the bullets had, could they erase the illusion completely? I guess they should have.’ My eyes went back to his [Gift]

’Awareness, huh? Does that mean that the reality is not dependent upon what he speaks but on what he believes? Seems like it,’ I thought as I saw my illusion walking towards the guy with an amused smile on its face.

"Are you superman or something? Well, it doesn’t matter. You won’t be able to come back from this next thing," he spoke with the same confidence, while my illusion walked a bit more.

"I will," I spoke through my illusion with the same confidence as I wondered if my words are going to have any effect on that guy. If it does, then this whole thing would be nothing more than a child’s play.

Unlike the previous times, this time there were drones, swords, butterflies, and a dozen more different variations of things floating around my illusion. And on that guy’s command, they all began attacking at my illusion without giving a break to it.

Still, my illusion kept walking towards that guy, now less than 30 meters away from him.

Obviously, this time I wasn’t able to heal that illusion. Though that’s a fact that only I should know.

I slowly created another illusion. One that is different from the one that was standing there, and slowly replaced it showing it ’healing’ despite being under the strange constrictions that the guy put it in.

Seeing it heal as my illusion walked towards that reality player, the player was shocked a bit. His eyes were shaken a bit before he spoke again,

"You cannot come near me."

As usual, I replaced that illusion with another as it continued walking towards him.

"Why is it not working anymore?" The player was confused before he took out a sword. That sword… well it was strangely powerful. It felt like it was eating away the existence of anything around him, except him.

-Whoosh!

He was fast. Reaching within a meter close to my illusion, he slashed it before my illusion could react. Or to be accurate, before I could react.

-Slash!

’Do I need to increase my stats even more?’ I pondered looking at how slow I was against these strangely powerful people.

The part which was slashed, was more or less eaten away by the sword. It was the same as splitting my upper body and lower while the middle part was chomped apart by a monster or something.

Though it didn’t matter much as I simply replaced my illusion with another, while the guy observed me with a ridiculed look on his face.

My illusion moved to touch the face of the guy, while his eyes, completely disbelieving what he was looking at, were wide as it could be.

-Whoosh!

And then he vanished once again, this time creating a distance between the two of them. A huge distance. From where he kept analysing my illusion over and over.

"Who are you?" He asked.

A tinge of fear. A tinge of caution.

"Just a blind man," my illusion smiled as it walked towards him again. It was kind of funny. But it was also apparent.

It’s not the powers that one should be afraid of but the man.

"You cannot harm me," that man spoke again while I smiled.

In any case, even though I would love to drag this for a whole lot, this match is pretty much over. I should go on with the quest that I actually came for.

"I can," I declared, but then I sighed before speaking," but that’s not what I came here for."

His eyes were confused before I turned to Michael who was looking at me as if I were a ghost or something.

"I came here for two things. First was the Lightning of Truth. Have anything like that?" I asked as he gulped a bit. From his eyes, it seemed he did have it. Well, that makes things a tad bit easier for me.

Though let’s not retrieve it immediately. Let’s try saving this planet first.

"And the second thing was to meet your so-called God. His fight to the top against the devil is kind of destroying this world, you know?" I spoke in slight annoyance. Why do people need to get to the top of the world? Wouldn’t it be better to just stay on your own, in a comfortable place where you can be as happy as you want?

Seriously, these power creepers.

"What do you… want from my lord?" Michael asked as he looked at me with a defensive look.

"Playing hide and seek? Never played that with a God, you know?" I spoke sarcastically while his eyes narrowed at me.

And then I sighed before adding," obviously I am going to stop him. This world doesn’t need to meet its end. Wouldn’t it be better to thrive than to cull the entire planet just to prove a point? It should have been the obvious choice. Just what is your God thinking?"

Same goes for the Devil and the others that were fighting and stuff.

"The words of our God are absolute," Michael spoke with a saddened look on his face, while I sighed before speaking,

"That is for me to find out. Just take me there. It’s not like winning is going to save your lord or anyone on this planet. And losing against a blind man would only mean that your lord amounted to that much only."

And then I moved closer to him, before reaching about 3 meters away.

"So. Are you going to tell me, or do I need to find him on my own?"
