Chapter 187 (Fear | Thoughts)

(Okay, this chapter is still not the fight, haha. Well, this chapter is needed for future plots. I'm pretty sure the next chapter would be the continuation of the fight.

"No way... how could this be?... Some thing like this is... unheard of."

Tiamat's eyes was filled with shock. His improved killing intent overwhelmed her, completely surpassing her very own.

In her realm she was the infamous Evil Dragon. In a contest of killing intent, she was confident that she couldn't lose to anyone.

She had killed who knows how many beings through out her life, she once even destroyed an entire world. The current situation right now is way out of her expectations, it was so overwhelming.

Deep inside her, she was suffocating. You may wonder how something like this have so much effect on her. It was because never in her life could she imagine this feeling, the feeling of being suppressed, the feeling of fear.

Watching something that looked like a huge monster screaming in agony, just it's presence already made her shiver. Yet, hundreds of thousands if not millions of monsters with the same level as the one she saw had the same situation, they all died.

She knows that even just one of those monsters could play with her life as if it was nothing.

The negative emotions those monsters emitted the moment they died, it was too much for her. At first, she couldn't believe what she saw. Trying to confirm it so many times with all her senses, it was true. No matter how many times she denied it, reality was in front of her.

The gap between them, it was something she could never reach in her life. Reality dawned upon her, there was just things in life that you thought is impossible. Yet, someone possessed it.

Still... Although she was completely suppressed, a killing intent was not enough to stop her. What the killing intent could do is make you feel fear, fear can cloud one's mind, leaving opportunities and weakness.

Fear! This was a newfound feeling she felt. It scares her and is also made her excited. Turning to look a her body that was shaking, she smiled and quickly composed herself. Focusing, all her killing intent to surround her, so that the pressure of his killing intent that she will feel, will weaken.

"[Divine Throne]." Tiamat used a skill. A majestic golden throne appeared in front of her. Then, in the eyes of all that were watching, she destroyed the throne into fragments with her sword.

"Blue Thorns." The fragmented pieces was absorbed or should we say became one with her sword. The silver colored long sword turned blue, with blue thorns wrapping it's handle.

Holding her new sword in her hand, her power soared. It seems that she was serious this time, she won't hold back anymore. Especially, against someone like him. She knows that she couldn't underestimate him, even with his rank who is way beneath hers.

It's because, he is the only one who made her experience fear for the very first time.

...

'I was right! Just as I thought, how my killing intent suddenly increased tremendously was related to my soul.'

'After that wind blow inside the gate was released, I'm pretty sure it was absorbed by me... or more like it went to my body. The moment that happened I feel as if I can do anything, even now. It's like as if I recalled something familiar, and I only need something to remind me to completely recall it.'

'Though, I have gained one information. 'Broken Soul' this word was the one that appeared in my mind. It was only a word, there were no explanation or any more further information about it. I don't know what it meant and why is that word was as if it was nailed on my mind to not forget it.

'If you judged the meaning by it's name, it should be that my soul was broken. Surely, it isn't that simple. As I think there is more to it than that.'

'In the first place, was I even correct about that vision being my past? Wait! I clearly remember that guy who has the same face as me said he was a virgin, so the possibility about it being my future is impossible. I'm not a virgin anymore, especially on my last life.

'Last life? Now that I think of it, I transmigrated here. The fact that I was transmigrated here was almost forgotten in my mind. Living in this world for years, almost made me forget. Then, if that vision was my past, that means that I died two times now?.

'However, if I actually try to remember my life before this, it's as if it will overlap with something, resulting my head to hurt... Wait! What was my name before this, anyway? I... I don't remember it. Argh! My head hurts thinking about this, I never knew that my knowledge about my own life was this small.

'I gotta stop thinking about this right now, I need to concentrate on what's in front of me, Earth, fiancee, death of parents, and finally 'broken soul' that is all my clue for now. I remember having friends and girlfriends in my last life... but I don't have the memory of who were they. It's as if I know since it is so familiar and at the same time, I don't know it as I can't remember any of it.

'So far, I can conclude, that the vision was my past. But... if I were that strong how could my reincarnation even die with a knife? Who was that unknown entity? How did my soul recover? How is that gate related to me? I still have a lot of question that needs to be answered. Step by step, I need to answer all of them. I never knew my life was this mysterious. It could even classified as scary.'

He finished his thoughts, looking at the beautiful woman in front of him. He decided to stop thinking about this for now, and focus on the current situation.

"How did you... No! Why is your killing intent so strong?." Scáthach said in disbelief, as it was even stronger than what she experienced before.

"Haha, I'd like to know that too, maybe in my past life I was really strong." He laughed.

"Well, it seems that it won't affect her that much and I guess she will be serious this time. Are you ready?." Scáthach smiled.

"Ready, it was quite amusing to see that she was shaking at first, though." He smiled.

...

"Entertain this queen." Tiamat smiled with her new sword in her arms, her power exploded as commenced her attack.

"[Divine Descent], I can't manage this for long. Let's end this quick." Scáthach's power exploded to several levels. she then launched in an unimaginable speed towards Tiamat.

"I have a plan, let's end this quick." With his body in his current devil form. Plus, the scythe in his hand that covered his entire body with it's power. Although, he could not still not keep up with Scáthach's speed, his speed was still incredible compared to before.

Round Two Started...
