Chapter 201 Nemesis Of Causality
Chapter 201 Nemesis Of Causality
Fein stared at the sudden flare of golden light in his sister's hand. The golden light illuminates the entire underground base of the Ranger's Eyes, traveling to every nook and cranny. The clouds parted as if welcoming the emergence of divinity. Fein's jaw dropped as he witnessed the exaggerated phenomena after her sister activated her causal ability.
'This is how a causal ability should look like!' Fein clenched his fist with eagerness.
Although Fey's 'Phasing Punch' had an absolute effect, its launching effect wasn't as cool as 'Phasing Arrow'!
Fein braced himself for the incoming arrow, as he knew that what he would face now was undefendable and inevitable. 'I just hope that my theory works.'
But he didn't feel nervous or anything. Because the power of abilities depends on their user. He knew the strength had to reach a level that degu-users below his rank would have a hard time inflicting even a scratch on him. And Fey's causal ability doesn't have a one-hit kill in its description. If it has, even if you combine his guts now and his past life, he won't even think about it. For him, life is far more important than face! He's the literal opposite of Roger. A wise man once said, only fools rush in.
Just like that, the golden light in Fey's hand vanished, and a thumping small golden arrow appeared, covered with furious golden lightning. Fein could feel the majesty of the golden arrow exude, even from afar.
'Damn!! why do I feel excited!?' Fein felt his blood boil, and the adrenaline rush overflowed his entire body. 'Could it be that I'm really a battle maniac!? or a daredevil!?' he couldn't help but shudder when this thought passed through his head.
Although he felt this, Fein didn't dare to underestimate his sister's attack. He had already been far from the stage of arrogance. He had already graduated from his complacency after the repeated setbacks that almost caused his life. Now, he firmly believed in the quote 'A lion will use his full strength to kill a rabbit!
Suddenly, the golden arrow in his sister's hand flew towards him in the blink of an eye, just like the 'Phasing Punch' from before.
'Fuck!' Fein immediately reacted and used his Ghecko Substitution with a thought.
No matter how fast the golden arrow is, it won't exceed the speed of thought right? After all, the speed of thought was as little as fifty milliseconds! While light travels at the rate of 186,000 miles per second, thoughts virtually travel in no time. Thought is finer than ether, the medium of electricity. Thoughts excel light in speed! And the golden arrow wasn't as fast as light in the first place.
The golden arrow lost its target as Fein vanished, and Fey replaced his previous position. It paused as the golden arrow neared Fey. Fey felt a cold sweat on her back as if the golden arrow didn't stop fast enough. It would have landed on her.
'As expected of a causal ability.' Fein stood on top of the tree as he used his Ghecko Substitution twice to widen the distance.
The golden arrow suddenly pointed at him again and rushed at an inexplicable speed. 'Fuck! it's really absolute, and it's just like a homing missile!' he's now sure that wherever he went, the golden arrow would absolutely follow him. And if he goes to a different dimension to avoid it, the golden arrow might even teleport just to follow him.
Fein retrieved the sword that he intended to give to Kidd. He wants to use this instead of 'Dragon Abyssal Death Blade' as he wants to confirm something.
Just like that, the golden arrow appeared in front of him in less than a second! Fein gripped the sword in his scabbard tightly.
'Crimson Eagle Sword Art: Flick.' Fein recited the name of the technique in his mind.
He released his grip for a second and made a slash in his right at a speed he can the naked can't see. A white light flicker as it moves towards the golden arrow, but the one light only passed through it like the golden light didn't exist.
'Shit! can't I really counter it?' Seeing the golden arrow that covered the distance, Fein launched his 'Ghecko Substitution' again for the third time.
He appeared on the edge of the base this time, but the golden arrow had seemingly adapted to his rhythm, which made it instantly react, and turned around to rush at him.
The golden arrow instantly covered half the distance, but this gave Fein enough time to store back the sword in his hand and replace it with his favorite sword. 'I just hope that my theory works, or else I can't do anything about it. Although causal ability is absolute, there's always an exception, right?'
Fein briskly put on a sword stance. He bent his legs gently and gripped the sword in his scabbard. Without hesitation, he unsheathed the sword while imbuing almost seventy percent degu energy in his blade.
'Crimson Eagle Sword Style: Sun Rays!' Due to the combination of the flaming effect of his scabbard and his sword. A spark appeared, which made his slash appear like a ray of sunlight, and it traveled toward the golden arrow.
'Don't let me down!' Fein took a deep breath.
Just like that, the golden arrow and the sword slash that embodied the rays of the sun collided. The golden arrow just touched the sun-ray slash, and it didn't last long as it collapsed instantly. The ray of light evaporated the golden arrow, not even leaving a scum. Fein's degu quality was much higher than his sister's. But what made him excited was the fact that his slash manage to touch the intangible golden arrow!
'So my theory is right. And it seems I just manage to perform a miracle,' Fein grinned. 'An absolute could cancel another absolute!'
His sword's 'Killer of Concept' could cut a concept and intangible things, so he attempted if it can also destroy the effect of causal abilities. His favorite sword's passive ability 'Killer of Concept' might just be the nemesis of Causality!
