Chapter 226. White Knight (3) (2/2)
If one only relied on speed, one’s attacks would eventually become predictable And since his current opponents were fiends—they would be very good at adapting
So, Seo Jun-Ho had chosen to slon
o down to 20’ </e his every et used to his 70 output
“We definitely have a chance… No, we can definitely catch him”
“I suppose the speed from before was just his momentum”
As the fiends fell into his trap, Seo Jun-Ho stepped off of the third shard of ice His figure disappeared ah he could currently only hest output he could reach
In addition, Overclocking didn’t just give him enhanced speed
th, and flexibility as well’
Ba them explode like a water balloon Blood fell from the sky like rain
The other fiends pulled theether as the warm blood covered them
‘He… Got fast?’
‘How…’
‘How did that bastard do it?’
The majority of the fiends were distracted by Seo Jun-Ho, but the quick-witted ones froze They frantically started to shake off the blood like it was fire
“Heh, this is why the sestured with his finger
Crackle!
The blood on their bodies froze into scarlet icicles Where blood was on their faces, the ice stabbed through their faces, and where it stained their arh those as well
Aside froh to shake the blood off of them, all the other fiends instantly died
ht the Cinder Fox, too’ </eic power to create one large spike made of ice Now, he could easily create dozens of icicles
‘But I still kno liht now, he could freeze any liquid within eyeshot using the Frost skill, but he couldn’t freeze the blood within someone’s body like what the Frost Queen could do in her pri the three re survivors They cracked their knuckles and nodded “I suppose I’ll have to act as a shi+eld”
“You?”
“Nonsense…”
The other tere shocked They had never seen a fiend ould willingly sacrifice themselves
“I wouldn’t usually do this either But like you saw before, his attacks can’t hurt me” They tapped on their carotid artery as proof “My skin is a lot tougher than his ice, so I’ll be fine”
“Wait, but isn’t steel weak to low temperatures?”
“As far as I know, it doesn’t break easily as long as it doesn’t go below negative thirty degrees”
“ent, but the steel-skinned fiend clicked their tongue “It looks like steel, but ative thirty degrees is nothing”
“Makes sense…”
“I’ll restrain his movements, so just ht?”
“Yeah” The other two didn’t like their condescending tone, but they nodded along without protest They kneouldn’t be easy to catch Seo Jun-Ho without the steel-skinned fiend’s skill
on all the risk anyways’
‘It’ll be nice if it works, but it’ll be fine if it doesn’t’
The steel-skinned fiend had drunk the blood of an Inozia—a demon race who could harness the wind The fiend used the wind to fly toward Seo Jun-Ho at an iripped Seo Jun-Ho’s throat and lifted him into the air “Why, did you think you were the only one as fast?”
“” Jun-Ho looked down at the thick hand encircling his throat His opponent had already become steel from head to toe “I heard that steel breaks like strahen it’s cold… Are you sure you can handle it?”
“Heh Sorry, but my body’s not made out of norloith a blue light At the same time, the temperature around them rapidly dropped
“Heh This is child’s play”
The steel hands squeezed harder around Seo Jun-Ho’s neck It was a contest to see which would happen first: whether Seo Jun-Ho’s neck broke first, or the re fiends froze first The first to chicken out would lose
“ainst the steel face All of a sudden, the fiend noticed souy… Why does he look like that?’</e, Seo Jun-Ho’s face had re fro your throat’
So why did he look so calrow “W-wait” Their heart started to pound “Kill hiht now!” The fiend called to their comrades
“”
However, there was no voice saying that they got it or to just hold on for a bit There was no response at all
“What are you doing, you idiots…”
The steel-skinned fiend’s face fell as they turned around
No one was there
Splash!+ Splash!+ </e into the ocean could be heard
Seo Jun-Ho spoke, “We’re in the o” There was no better place for him to use his Frost Skill The two other fiends had instantly died when he pierced them with icicles “I’ve had my fun, so let’s end it here”
Seo Jun-Ho raised his hand and pressed down on the steel ar him up by his neck
Crack!
It broke like a piece of straw It was like an adult swatting away the hand of a child
“h…” The fiend fell back
It was then that they finally realized Fro, the man in front of their eyes had considered the elevenbut ed The fiend would lose their sense of touch every time they used this skill and transformed their skin into steel This hy they hadn’t noticed how cold it was “P-Please, don’t do this”
A nor would have already died at this tehtly pushed the fiend’s face
lowstick breaking, the fiend’s head broke off their shoulders Seo Jun-Ho quickly caught it
“I almost lost the chance to read their memories”
The Fiend association’s Port Lane mission had completely failed
On that day, nearly a hundred fiends had lost their lives
