Chapter 153: Chapter 152: The Predator Duke, Part II

A black smoke soon enveloped the Duke and his soldiers. The smoke wasn't from any of the deities or the devas, as not a single one of them had died or even got hurt. The smoke was from the liquid that was pouring out from the Duke. The Duke was still absorbing damage from the Werewolves' attacks, but his soldiers weren't dismayed about that.

The Duke's appearance had changed completely. He had just lost a large amount of his fatty flesh.

-He's never lost that much weight at once like that!-

The Duke's entire army had never seen this happen. It was proof that Lee Jiwon had inflicted so much damage that the Duke couldn't absorb it all.

”Wah… a single person can do that?”

”Fuck… is he actually a deva like us? What if there's something more overpowered than devas or deities out there?”

”That might just be possible…if you consider everything he's done so far.”

”...”

The soldiers that had stayed behind could not believe what they had just seen. They had never failed or been disappointed before. They didn't even like the fact that they weren't up there with the Duke. They wanted the EXP from killing the Werewolves, too. It shocked them even more that the tactic that had never failed before had just fallen to pieces.

The Werewolf Clan was equally shocked. Everything had technically gone as Lee Jiwon had planned. He attracted attention as he said he would, and the Duke had ordered his men to focus their attacks on him, just as they had expected. Then, he slipped past their defenses using Blink and attacked the Duke. This was something the Clan simply couldn't do.

But what they couldn't believe was that he actually managed to stop the Duke and his team dead in their tracks. Lod and his officers didn't even think that was possible.

Both sides were so shocked that they actually stopped fighting for a moment, until the Duke began swearing in anger.

”Fuck! Lee Jiwon, you son of a bitch!” The Duke emerged from the black smoke, shrunk to half his previous size.

”Assault team 1, stand by. All other teams, ignore the Duke and attack the devas at the rear!” Lod shouted his orders; orders that would ultimately decide the fate of the battle.

The Duke and his team had put a considerable distance between them and his remaining army. In other words, the remaining 9500 devas were left undefended. There was also a chance that they could run to the Duke's aid any second, and Lod needed to keep them occupied, at least until the Duke was taken care of.

Unfortunately, the 9500 devas were thinking the same.

”Get to the Duke!”

”It's not over yet. The Duke can still use his Predation Curse. The longer the battle, the better it is for us!”

”Altered Equality,” I said as soon as the Duke emerged from the black smoke. Now that I had completed my first task perfectly, all that was left was to kill the Duke. This was it. I couldn't let him get away. Failure was not an option.

==[You have activated Altered Equality – Altered Equal Stats on your opponent.

Your opponent's base Stat points, Stat points increased by skills and items and Stat points granted by specials will all be redistributed.

Calculating all Stat points…]==

==[Your opponents Stats have been redistributed.

The effects of Altered Equality will last for the next 24 hours and you must wait that time before using Altered Equality on someone else.

Stat points received for Kiran will be set to 0 as payment for using Altered Equality.]==

At that moment, the Duke stopped in mid-tantrum and glared at me, his eyes full of rage. I could actually see his eyes now.

I smiled back. Altered Equality really was the perfect skill to piss anyone off like that. I probably just cut his entire attack power by more than half by redistributing his Stat points. Who wouldn't be mad?

I could hear him grind his teeth in anger from all the way here.

”Lee Jiwon! I swear I'll eat you, bones and all!”

”I'd love to see you try.” I gripped my Harrier once more and charged in. He could no longer absorb all the damage from me at once now. Lod and three hundred Werewolves of the First Assault team were hot on my heels.

I stabbed and slashed at the devas blocking my way.
