Chapter 82: Mad Rank
Within the hall where every Wargrave had gathered, the aura which had been absent suddenly appeared. The entire hall was drenched in presence as battle intent and madness exploded outward in a controlled chaos. It erupted from every single one of them at this moment, causing their blood to boil.
What they were seeing defied reality, they watched the Tenth Sun sleep for over an entire hour during the True Awakening. Which of them had ever even done this? They wouldn’t dare to. No, they didn’t dare because they never had the time; they were running for their lives.
They saw the way he fought. They could see his battle experience increasing with every motion, every movement. Their eyes burned into the heads-up display before them. Their gaze didn’t dare peel away from the screen; they didn’t even dare blink or miss a moment.
They watched with absolute clarity, pride overflowing in their blood and pumping through their veins at this very moment. But none spoke. They simply watched.
They watched as the Tenth Sun plowed through assassins like a lawnmower through blades of grass. They could tell he had learned the dagger techniques on the spot, then went ahead to use the whip like it was just another weapon in his arsenal.
Then they saw him close his eyes. They didn’t know why, but they assumed it was one of the assassins’ abilities. Still, the Tenth Sun moved without hesitation, without pause, without delay, as though vision never mattered to begin with.
They watched him jump into different abilities like it was nothing. They could see the way he moved like he was one of the assassins, absolutely silent. Heads soared as he moved. Blood painted the sky like a canvas. Bodies dropped like flies with every motion.
They saw him dodge attacks that should have been impossible, as though he possessed an ability to see a split second into the future. But as they were all battle maniacs, they could tell the Tenth Sun was reading the assassins and predicting their movements and attack through their muscles movement.
But someone whose battle experience over the past six months came from a controlled environment shouldn’t be capable of this. Even if it was due to talent, it shouldn’t be at this level, not yet.
