Chapter 2384: Killing a Curse Eater
"BOOOOOM!"
"BOOM!"
"BOOOOM!"
Explosions rang across the dark city as massive blasts tore through the skyline. Buildings were cleaved apart, their upper floors collapsing as chunks of stone and steel crashed into the streets below. Smoke and debris flooded the air, blotting out what little light existed in this empty world.
Cain’s eyes were sharp as blades as he glided along the surface of a crumbling building, his feet barely touching the fractured stone. He twisted mid-motion, narrowly dodging a devastating strike from Bako, then raised his arm and shattered a net of threads released by Hako. His movements were fluid, precise, relentless.
Then his eyes narrowed.
"One hundred heartbeats."
Even as he fought the two Curse Eaters directly, Cain had been counting in his mind. That was the exact number of heartbeats it took for Sozing to recharge his overwhelming repulsive force.
As if on cue, Sozing’s eyes glowed. The human Curse Eater leapt forward, positioning himself directly in front of Cain. His hand extended, and in the next instant, the repulsive force erupted at full power.
The blast struck the Scarlet King point-blank.
A mouthful of blood emerged from the Scarlet King as he was hurled through a building, smashing through walls and support pillars before crashing into the street below. The ground shattered on impact, blood spraying across the fractured stone.
Cain clenched his teeth—but he did not hesitate.
