Chapter 255 Void Forms
Arad lifted his sword and looked forward, “I can’t keep taking hits now.” SWOSH! He swung the blade down, “I have to learn how to fight,”
The dark mist radiated from Arad’s skin, hissing as the plants around him slowly disintegrated.
“I got three skills when fighting Connor, the big bad evil guy of the mission.” Arad took a deep breath as his blade turned black with the void.
[Void Dragon Claw]
ZAN! Swinging down, he left a black trail akin to the night sky. “Void dragon claw. This skill covers my sword with my stomach void. So anything I cut gets sucked in.”
“HoHo?” Jack poked Arad’s sword, “My finger isn’t getting sucked in.”
“I can control it, so don’t worry.” Arad smiled and then took a second stance.
[Void Step]
ZON! He disappeared and appeared on the other side of the garden. “Void step. It’s faster than my previous void walk. So I can spam it easily.”
ZON! ZON! ZON! Arad started teleporting around the garden, making it hard for Jack to track him. In a second, Arad was behind him, and in the next, he was upside down in the sky.
Arad smiled, stopping in the middle of the garden, “And the last one.” His body disappeared in the darkness.
[Infinite Void]
“I cover my whole body with the void. Even my touch is leather to normal people, and I can eat whatever I come in contact with.”
“So you’re a walking disintegrator?” Jack looked at Cain, standing like a black shadow.
“Pretty much, but this won’t be enough. I can’t rely on them.”
Alcott smiled, “I asked him to create sword moves,” He looked at Arad, “Show him what did you learn in the past few days,”
Arad nodded, sucking his sword back into his stomach.
“First void form: Initiative. It’s for when I’m not expecting a fight.”
[First void form: Initiative]
In an instant, Arad activated [Infinite void] In the blink of an eye, sending a shockwave to deter anyone close to him. By the time the darkness of the void cleared, he had already teleported away with [Void step]
SWOSH! Arad swung his sword down at the other side of the garden with [Void dragon claw]. “And I killed the attacker.”
Jack approached Arad, “That was fast, so you’re trying to become a swordsman?”
“No, I’m just trying to take less damage than before.” Arad smiled, “So go back. I’m going to perform the second form.”
Jack jogged back to Alcott and stood watching Arad get into a stance.
“Let’s say there is someone who manages to deflect a sword strike from me.” Arad opened his mouth in the blink of an eye.
[Second void form: Mini roar]
CLAP! A burst of dark void flashed, causing Jack’s ears to start ringing.
“I use my void to absorb the air close to my face, causing it to vibrate loudly to knock the attacker.” Arad smiled, “Of course, I would chew their face off if they got close.” He clenched his jaw, referring to his werewolf skill. “Or suck their blood off with a neck bite,” 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝑚
Arad then swung his sword in a circle around him, [Third void form: Black shield]
“The black haze left after my blade when I swing it can still absorb objects into my stomach, so I will use it to absorb arrows and spells.” Arad took a deep breath and looked at Alcott.
“You can absorb spells?” Jack looked at Arad, confused.
“Yeah, I discovered it when I fought a half-purple dragon woman in Rita.” Arad smiled.
“A half-dragon? I wish I saw her. Those are rare.” Jack smiled, “Looking at you, I would have thought you would drag her back home.”
Arad giggled, “No way, that woman is crazy.” He knocked on his head, “Even when we fought, I couldn’t sense a drop of bloodlust from her. She didn’t seem to fear death or care in the least.” Arad sighed, “There is no way I’m letting such a crazy woman near my house.”
“I mean, I did,” Alcott looked at Arad, “Ginger wasn’t a nice woman when I dragged her back home.”
Arad looked at Alcott, “That’s still dangerous.”
“Most people aren’t born evil. They only need an opportunity to learn to live normally,” Alcott smiled, “She only knew humans as cattle. And didn’t want to open up and see the wide world beyond the limit of her castle.” Alcott looked at Arad.
“But she was still dangerous.” Arad looked back at Alcott.
“She attacked me right after we walked out of her castle, so I knocked her out.” Alcott smiled, “It took her a year of living in a cage with me teaching her about the world to be able to integrate normally.”
Alcott looked at the sun, “And now, that human killing monster, the unhuman queen of the vampire castle, saved my life.”
Arad nodded, “Fine. I will drag her back home next time I see her.”
“You two.” Jack sighed, “What do you think she is?”
The two looked at him. “If she is stuck in a circle, someone has to pull her out, even if by force.”
Arad looked at his stats.
