Chapter 79: The Hunt Begins [5]

Nothing exciting is happening in my life, I'm only getting into a ton of trouble that I never thought I'd do for starters, I'm fighting against my reader who has the intention of killing me, wait a minute. I haven't even told you how I got myself into my current situation. You're interested in my suffering? Huh guess I should write about my life from time to time it might be worth the effort

A few hours ago

[System: You've detected multiple enemies with Concurrent flows enhance hearing]

'The hell they have us surrounded? What the hell are they waiting for if they want to attack us then now's the perfect place. Sigh, it looks like I'll have to do all of the work, what do I have Jin can handle clearing out their chemical supply. And the others how about I leave the three of them in a wild goose chase, that only leaves me with Blake, seriously doubt that he'll be useful in my fight well beggars can't be choosers,'

"Boss, Boss I smelled something that has the same scent that attacked us should I track it?"

'Great timing Kyo I needed a reason to get the three of you out of my way, Hmmm, but I'll have a hard time believing they could survive without me. Let's place the other half of the portable teleportation scroll inside his bag, with Jin babysitting the three of them I wouldn't have to worry about any other problem that might occur,'

"That's a perfect idea, we should split up into a group of three, I need the three of you to go on a wild goose chase I mean, an important mission. Blake and I can handle the rest so you should prioritize the mission that I gave the three of you," Morris placed the portable scroll in his bag before he sends the three of them away from his location

[Appraisal: Multiple hostile targets are gradually shortening their numbers, the current number of people that have ill intentions to the player Christopher Morris has dropped to three individuals]

'They're not even hiding the fact that they're after me, looks like the identity leakage that I gave to Lillith has reached Theodore's ears. Seeing as their goal is to end my life, I can guess that The Mad Alchemist is ordering him to wait for my most vulnerable moment to occur. Well, I'm not someone who can wait I'll give you the best opportunity inside this alleyway if you can't even attack me then I'll have to retaliate after,'

Morris entered the dark and narrow alleyway which was perfect for anyone to attack him in his most vulnerable situation. The alleyway was narrow which gave him the edge to be attacked at any corner along with the walls closer to his body making it harder for him to dodge any kind of attack. Yet his opponent wasn't paying attention to his current surroundings he didn't feel any sort of tension in his surroundings. Traps, an assassination attempt? He didn't receive anything to his expectation only a pair of idiots that was stalking him till his patience met its end which made him abandon Blake for a second to attack his pursuers from their backs

Back to the present

"Aren't you surprised to see me? Seeing as your stalking me I guess this little Alchemist changed his profession from an intellectual to a stalker," Morris launched another wave of Magic orbs before he closes his distance between the three of them to unleash a powerful right hook that was enhanced with his Mana alongside a portion of his Chi, which was easily blocked by Kros along with Lillith that bonded him to the ground for Theodore to land a powerful blow at his back, which was stopped by a Glacial wall that he created by the time he was binded by Lillith

[System: the player Christopher Morris has activated the skill Mirage, you've created a controllable clone that possessed your stats along with your skills]

His Mirage controlled the Glacial array which froze Theodore alongside his weapon before he retaliated at the two vassals sending a concentrated Shock that knocked the two of them and free the original from their trap. After he was freed of his shackles Morris pounced on Theodore before he collided with his fist that was charged with Chi knocking him to the abandoned building. While he was busy duking it out with Theodore his Mirage created another copy before it proceeded to attack the two vassals that recovered from its previous attack

"Isolating me that's your greatest plan? I thought about a ton of ways to end your life yet you decided on your own. Do you think this was going to be like the last time we fought? I agree that when we first met I was lacking in terms of compatibility with my host, but that problem has been solved. What would you do If you were faced with something that has achieved its full potential? I'll tell you the answer you surrender since that's what's going to happen next," Theodore's voice echoed throughout the abandoned building while it shifts from his voice to his deity, Morris was preparing for the worst when he finally hold his staff while the voices were traveling from one corner to another, it was changing with every second that passed until he was met with an attack that was aimed for his head

[System: the player Christopher Morris has activated the skill Haste, for a short period of time you're movement speed will be increased by half of your stats]

Morris tilted his head to the right while the attack came from his left and knocked down the walls that were closed to his location, the dust that came from the wall blinded Theodore giving Morris the time he needed to counter his attack by sending a powerful kick sending him to the wall which was paired with an amplified version of Ignite. After he disrupted his movements he created another Mirage that was holding a pair of daggers that he threw before they began to tear down Theodore's mutated body a new

"This is my counter-attack,"

He enhances his movements which his Mirage copied right after he strikes his abdomen his Mirage would repeat his process while its dagger goes through a series of fatal combinations of attack. Whenever Morris attacks a particular part of his body he's Mirage will do the same thing it was mimicking his every move which proved to be a challenge for Theodore who was constantly regenerating his wounds. Before he could anticipate the copy's next movement it suddenly avoided one of Morris's actions it made its movement and attacked the other sides that were unchanged by neither the original nor itself, tearing down the body of its inexperienced victim

[Did that last attack of yours finally end your battle? What's wrong why are you throwing a bomb at a corpse?]

Morris wasn't fooled by his tricks after he read every content of the book he acquired, it told him the reason why the book was created and research within. Seeing as he fully understands the book he took the most attentive way to confirm his opponent's death by throwing an explosive while he remained at a safe distance from the carcass. The bomb explode after it reached its destination, no reaction not even a twitch which made him close the distance between the unconscious body lying on the ground. Till it stabbed him to the chest, Theodore arise from the ground after suffering an explosion that was healed with his skill. It looks like the victor has been decided until he took a closer look at the body he impaled which turned out to be his Mirage that injected him with a liquidized Feijin flower before it uses its own body as the catalyst for a powerful Ignition to explode lighting the whole building in flames

[Do you think he's still kicking after receiving an attack that can be compared to an explosion?]

"It's best to assume that he's still alive, lowering your guard inside the battlefield is asking for an early ticket to the Purgatory. Plus, his affiliated with a deity that's related to this trial, a deity within his territory can't be killed with something as simple as that. For example just like this sneak attack, I can't believe that you're still alive, Theodore," Morris dodged an attack that came from his blindspot it was none other than Theodore along with his regenerative body that neutralized the effect of the Feijin flower

'Shitty bastard if I didn't have a way to deal with his altered body, my situation would be comparable to a horror movie. And I'll tell you there's no such thing as a final girl I need to rely on my skills along with my wits. Still, there's something that not even a prideful deity like Deniro can't escape from,'

Morris activated one of the Systems effects which made Deniro that was currently controlling Theodore's body stop without any hesitation in his movement. He was offered a bet along with the appearance of dozen Deities that arrived as soon as they were notified of Morris's broadcasting

"Deniro Alphas, A.K.A The Mad Alchemist I challenge you're Avatar to a duel if you truly believe that he's better than I, should we hold a duel. The rules are easy and anyone can understand them without any difficulties, we will have an all-out duel all skills must be used along with the blessings that the player received. Deny my invitation and you'll find yourself becoming a mockery in the Deities to avoid a challenge of an Avatar even though you've already had the upper hand by standing in front of your domain," Morris taunted him he used his opponent's prideful nature to his advantage, making him decide over a challenge that would benefit him the most since he can apply a condition for him to win

"What's this, course we're going to have to declin~, I accept, hey Alphas what do you mean you accept? Just as I said we're going to abide by his bet, we already have the upper hand just by standing on this ground. I know what you meant but this is our chance if we accept that bet then what can we gain, I had enough of your pointless remarks about my decision I hereby strip you of your command of your body, Christopher Morris it's about time that I settle the score with you,"
