Chapter 1621 (2/2)

Randidly’s emerald eyes glowed. For a split second, his aura flickered and morphed. For a split second, he took a step toward fooling the universe around him. He wavered between his humanity and the cold implacability of an instrument of war. He stepped forward, immediately accelerating to a speed that blasted the surrounding area with a sonic boom. He had chosen his moment perfectly, so the wiggling line of his Skill briefly aligned into a straight path. Randidly cleaved perfectly along that line as he raced forward.

But only after a few steps, Randidly planted his foot with enough force to crack the ground and gradually slowed. While his first movement had carried him across twenty meters, his deceleration was finished in only three meters. Yet after Randidly stopped himself, the phenomenon he had initiated continued rapidly forward.

RUMMMMMBLLLLLEEEEEE!

While Randidly now stood calmly in place, the ground in front of him ruptured and cracked. For a brief instant, he had been a spear and activated his new spearmanship that could control the natural forces of the environment. The ground in front of him was obliterated and cleared as though he had unleashed a freight train and strapped a bulldozer to the front of it.

Trees were smashed to kindling as the attack raced forward. Friction from the immense speed ignited the broken shards of wood as they were sent tumbling through the air so that the attack seemed to be riding a wave of fire. No sooner had the unfortunate Nether Beasts in the attack’s path noticed the approaching destruction than they had been ground up and obliterated by the constant churn of debris.

Over the next several seconds, the attack rushed forward and crossed the entirety of the isolated space. The destruction only ceased when the attack finally reached the other side and crashed helplessly against the barrier of Aether and Nether. In its wake, a smoldering but cleared path now existed.

Despite the powerful display, only Lay’mel was left slack-jawed. The others just accepted Randidly’s capability as something normal and followed quickly after Randidly down the cleared avenue. Even Kerwin seemed unaffected.

His goal had been accomplished, but Randidly viewed the demonstration rather sourly. With his Grim Intuition, everything within the isolated space was within his view. Which was why he could easily determine the exact parameters of the clearing he had created. Although the path was almost exactly five meters across for the entire isolated space...

Damnit, why the hell did the attack lean slightly to the left?!? Randidly scowled at the ground as they rushed forward. After crossing a kilometer, the final result was only half a meter to the side, but still… I was sure the moving line was completely straight…

Fuck, is 2392 Fidelity of the Ascendant Moirae still not enough…? Bah, the stronger I get, the more I realize how crazy powerful people in the Nexus can get. Most probably aren’t anywhere close to my Stats, but with how long they’ve been alive, just how high has their Skill Levels climbed…?

Still, his frustration vanished as soon as the group reached the other side. With the huge display of power, even the typically aggressive Nether Beasts had left them alone. Randidly pressed his hand up against the barrier and closed his eyes to sense the situation on the other side. Humming to himself, Randidly opened his eyes back up and looked behind him.

“Looks like there are two paths forward from this point. One will require us to cut through additional spaces… but the other travels through a space that has been dominated by Nether forces. Hard to say which is faster.” Randidly paused and tapped his finger against the spatial wall, sending pulsing waves through the material. “Any opinions?”

Helen snorted. DiOrtho’s eyes briefly glowed. Raymund cracked his knuckles.

After looking around carefully, Lay’mel said. “Ah… perhaps the more roundabout route-”

“Seems you’ve been outvoted,” Randidly said with a devilish grin. Again, he activated the energy in front of them and teleported them to the next area.
