Chapter 399: Lesson (2/2)

While the adorable girl listened calmly while enjoying this alone time with us, the Black Mist crept towards that Ultimate Darkgen I focused on.

As the Flux Energy flowed and circulated from the engine to the regenium all around the Metagen, I activated a Jewel Skill.

Karmic Slash!

With the activation of the ever-changing Jewel Skill, I reappeared in their line of sight. Opening my broadcast channel for them to hear me, I shouted.

”Thanks for letting me repair my Metagen! Now take this!”

Attacking them to prove that whatever that one's suspicion about me not completely injured was wrong, I then presented another answer for them. With that shout, I let them think that I was only recovering before I started to launch an attack again.

Following that Karmic Slash that seemed to be slow or fast depending on one's perception, enlarged Energy Explosion Projectiles followed by numerous Energy Threads were conjured by me, targeting the one I focused on.

With a Transcendent mind being able to process information faster than a normal human, my intention got perfectly relayed to them.

”Bullshit! What 'leading us on'? Are you seeing this? Because we stopped, he recovered enough to launch another attack!” Broadcasting his voice to curse at his fellow Transcendent, the one I targeted hastily dodged the Energy Explosions and Energy threads.

However, the Karmic Slash suddenly zoomed in, slashing straight to his Darkgen's chest.

”No!!!”

While cursing furiously, that one guy who suspected that I'm intentionally playing with them hurriedly invoked some kind of ability pulling the guy out of the way before the Karmic Slash landed.

Unfortunately, because of what he did, the two of them got hit by both the Energy Explosion Projectiles and Energy Threads.

”Damn it! You two! Attack him!” He shouted again and the other two Ultimate Darkgens instantly moved to launch a counter-attack.

However, before they could do that, a Transcendent Aura spread out from the direction of Eldur. Turning my gaze to it, I saw Amry's Crimson Valkyrie rushing towards our position, her flames burning brightly like a meteor.

And not only that, Yuko's stagnant Transcendent Aura due to her synchronization raged once more as it seemingly moved to reach our current position. However, it was now restrained to the point that it's only as strong as a Rank 1 Transcendent's Aura.

Surely, that girl used her Foresight and predicted the outcome I wanted to happen. Moreover, I already informed Reinys, Caila and Noelle that was standing guard there about my plan to let these Transcendents leave first for us to deal with them easily.

Upon being subjected to that, the four Ultimate Darkgens pilots reacted.

”Two new Transcendents on their side… ”

”We got injured because of this moron's suspicion. Damn it!”

”I have grounds for my suspicion! Didn't I save you?!”

”Stop fighting, let's retreat first! This operation failed. Strange… Where did these new Transcendents come from?”

Acknowledging the last one's suggestions, the four instantly moved and flew upwards.

But that guy's last sentence… They're not aware of our arrival, huh? Does that mean no one tipped from the Settler Faction?

Ah. In any case, I achieved what I wanted, although I didn't account for Amry and Yuko's appearance, it achieved the same outcome and even quicker at that.

Seeing their superiors leaving, the remaining Darkgens started flying up to follow after them. Elise and Lexie, followed by the Aegis Battalion and the Eldur Metagens chased after the stragglers, destroying more of their numbers.

”Amazing, they really retreated and not because they're too scared of us. They only think they're at a disadvantage.” Suddenly, Avelin commented as she cutely clapped her hands, praising me to her hearts' content.

I thought of teaching her something while we're fighting them and looking at her now, despite still having that innocent look, her eyes were shining brilliantly. She certainly understood that lesson I roughly taught her.

This adorable girl has a bright future.
