It was anti-climactic.
One moment, Raxxion was charging at Klaus; the next, he was suppressed, then crashed under the hammer's weight.
It was devastating to watch.
That most certainly wasnt how things were supposed to go.
The giant flame humanoid was supposed to give Klaus a run for his money. However, just when things were getting exciting, Klaus crashed the fun.
Obviously, that sparked chaos among the audience.
"What just happened?" One of them asked.
"Are you blind? That kid just one-shot Raxxion like a bag of potatoes ."
"B-but...But he is just a mortal. How is any of this possible? How was he able to kill a Real Immortal? Even as a Real Immortal, I wouldn't have been Raxxion's match."
A few people in the audience turn to the immortal who just spoke, and one of them replied..."Have you considered the possibility that you just suck?"
Punches were thrown, and chaos erupted everywhere.
Nobody could make heads and tail of what had just happened, not that it made any sense from the beginning. He had already proven to everyone he wasnt an ordinary warrior when he killed Seraya, who was also a real immortal.
However, people are stunned by the fact that he was able to kill a Real Immortal with just a single blow to the head...literally.
It was a crushing defeat, for lack of a better word.
If only they knew how much Klaus had to put into just that one strike.
When Raxxion charged at him, Klaus could have easily used the void to evade. However, in that moment, he sensed a powerful presence locked their gaze on him, prompting him not to reveal that.
Be as it may, void users are rare, and as such, if he reveals too much, the chances of him being kidnapped and taken away somewhere to be used as a tool are high.
Although he can escape easily, anything can also happen, and so he chooses not reveal too much. Of course, if it comes down to it, the Void will be his chance to escape.
Since the Paragon Mark won't work if he's in close proximity to danger, entering the void lets him travel farther to escape the danger long enough to teleport away.
Basically, Klaus has a sure way of escaping even from Immortal Kings. However, he didn't want to escape. He came here for something important, and so before he got his hand on it, he wouldn't leave.
So while he would be facing even more dangers, he knew that unless it came down to it, he would never use his void abilities... at least, not plainly.
He has plenty of ways to fight.
'Damn, I have already used 4 cores in three battles. Now, I only have 3 fully saturated cores, and two are still lacking. If I don't win the next battle with minimal effort, I'll be forced to show more of my abilities...something I dont want to do.'
Klaus sighed and started walking toward the locker room.
Even now, he can sense the powerful presence still on him.
'Icon, were you able to identify the person?'
[Yes, master. He is a True Immortal with a history of killing and stealing others' innate talents. I have sent his details to your interface. You can read it]
Klaus nodded and hastened his steps. He soon reached the locker room, where only one other person was seated in the corner, meditating to recover his strength.
He ignored him and focused on the interface to see what kind of danger was keeping a close eye on him.
Opening the panel, Klaus was first greeted by a profile of the person...
Name: Vyraxis
Race: Human (Mutated)
Realm: True Immortal – Peak
Crimes: 10,284 confirmed kills (suspected he had killed more than this)
Status: Extremely Dangerous
And just below that, he saw a detailed description of the kind of monster this person truly is.
[Crimes: In the past 300 years, Vyraxis had killed countless warriors across multiple planets, targeting those with rare physiques, bloodlines, or elemental affinities.
He is responsible for the annihilation of nine small clans and three medium-sized families. He is ruthless, sparing no one in his gory annihilations.
His method involves extracting the victim's core essence while they are still alive, a process that increases his power but leaves the victim's soul in eternal torment.
Thousands had died to his wicked deeds.
Vyraxis is also suspected to have experimented on himself using forbidden techniques, resulting in the mutation of his body and soul.
This mutation allows him to steal, refine, and adapt his victims' talents into his own cultivation path. Reports indicate he possesses over 18 stolen innate abilities, making him an unpredictable and deadly opponent.
His movements are extremely difficult to track, as he frequently uses spatial concealment techniques and slight Void law. Due to his actions, he is classified as a universal threat, and several bounty networks have issued kill-on-sight orders against him.
He is 12 billion Universal coins and 350 Hunter points, worth a bounty posted on the Epic Rank Mission Board at the Mission Hall.
Known Traits:
– Unstable mutated qi that adapts mid-battle
– High resistance to elemental attacks
– Extreme physical resilience
– Capable of stealing innate talents through direct soul contact
Recommended Action: Avoid engagement unless you are confident.]
'Damn, what a terrible person,' Klaus took in a deep breath, feeling his life suddenly in danger. However, deep within the fear, there is this flame of craziness screaming at him to kill the bastard and claim the reward.
[The master shouldn't bite more than he can chew.] Icon who sensed this craziness promptly within him cautioned.
However, that only seemed to fuel his craziness even more.
'I mean, this wouldn't be my first time taking on a True Immortal. I had accomplished that during both my 4th and 7th incarnations. And even better, I now have both bloodlines to back me up.'
[No. The master will be putting himself in danger. And in case the master is not aware, after here, there is a mission even more harrowing than this tournament. So the master will not engage him.]
'Tch, you are not fun, Icon.'
Klaus closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
The idea of facing a True Immortal still burns deep within him. However, for now, he will keep his cool while formulating countless ways to deal with the bastard if and when it comes down to it.
[Uhm, master, we have another problem.]
Icon suddenly said, causing Klaus to squint his eyes.
