Single Wish: Rise Of The Omniscient Paragon

Chapter 199 198: Return

?

"What a disgusting battle."

An extremely disappointed and disgusted expression appeared on the face of Triple X as he gazed at the corpse of the king of androids.

He remained floating in the air as he waited for something to happen. But despite waiting for a minute, there was no movement from the body of the King of Androids, there was no surprise sudden attack.

In fact, some seconds after Automaton fell unto the ground, the androids stopped moving and fell unto the floor.

Although, Triple X sort of knew that the king of androids would have no chance of revival since the attack of his spiritual clone didn't just attack the physical body of the King of Androids, it also attacked the spiritual body of the King of Androids, he was hoping for something unexpected to happen.

He released a disappointed sigh then he gazed at his spiritual clone and without saying a word, he waved his hand and the spiritual clone vanished.

"So I guess he was all bark and no bite."

One of the reasons Triple X accepted Automaton's request for battle despite rejecting his previous incessant requests, was due to the slight anticipation he had for the fight.

Triple X was not the type who enjoyed fighting a lot. In fact, if he could find something entertaining, he would rather do that thing other than fight against somebody else.

But unfortunately, ever since the day he lost his mother, he had never found anything interesting, except one particular thing.

Thinking back to that particular thing, Triple X's eyes moved and despite the large number of people in the audience, Triple X's eyes found Divine and Corey.

The image of a smiling Divine reflected in his eyes and memories of a particular day with Divine flashed back into his mind, and his body involuntarily trembled.

He released a soft sigh and his gaze shifted from Divine to the now quite battlefield. He calmly lowered himself to the ground and after landing softly, he snapped his fingers and the instant he did, each and everyone of his undead turned into a black mist which flowed towards The King of The Dead.

As Triple X walked towards Automaton, the black mist approached him from behind and the moment it touched his body, it got absorbed into his body.

With every step Triple X took, the black mist got thinner and thinner until all of it got absorbed into Triple X's body.

As the dark mist got fully absorbed into Triple X's body, Triple X released a soft breath filled with turbid air and after a few more steps, he reached Automaton's corpse.

He glanced at the corpse for a few more seconds before shaking his head with a disappointed expression.

"You called yourself a king, and just like most kings. Your arrogance and foolishness was your downfall."

Triple X mumbled then he bent towards the corpse of Automaton and placed his hands on it.

He closed his eyes for a few seconds, then he opened it. But if one were to look at his eyes, they would notice a difference. His previously white sclera now had black interconnecting lines in them which made his eyes contain an otherworldly feeling.

His lips parted open and a deep ancient voice flowed out of his lips as he said the word:

"Arise."

A few seconds later, Triple X's brows furrowed as he felt Automaton's soul resisting his command to be his slave.

"What made you think you have the right to resist? Do you actually think you're a king? A True King told you to arise and you, a false king dare resist?"

"Know your place you false, foolish and weak king."

"Arise."

As Triple X spoke, his deep, ancient voice dripped with visible contempt and disdain. After speaking the word, 'Arise', Automaton's corpse trembled and a black mist appeared from Automaton's corpse.

The black mist hovered on top of the corpse before it transformed to a perfect replica of Automaton. The replica knelt before Triple X and Triple X stood, and observed the replica.

A satisfied expression appeared on his face then he waved his hand softly and the replica transformed into a black mist which then flowed into his body.

Triple X's changed back to normal, then he looked at Automaton's corpse. He bent once again and he touched the corpse, and the corpse disappeared.

'I wonder why Captain wants this guy corpse.'

Triple X's brows furrowed slightly as he had this thought, then he shrugged and decided not to think about it as long as it doesn't affect him.

(Meanwhile, Divine and Corey)

Divine had a satisfied smile on his face as he gazed at Triple X who kept the body of Automaton.

'At least one of the requirements has been taken care of.'

Divine thought then he gazed at Corey who had a slight frown on his face as he looked at the black box above.

"What's wrong kid?"

Divine asked and Corey who was lost in thoughts, was brought out of his train of thoughts as Divine's voice flowed into his ears.

He looked away from the black box and with the same frown, he spoke:

"Where's the Announcer?"

Divine blinked repeatedly as a confused expression appeared on his face, as he wondered why Corey was asking such an unnecessary question.

"Why are you asking? Does it really matter? What if he went to take a shit?"

Divine spoke with a nonchalant tone while waving his hand nonchalantly, but Corey still had the same frown on his face, he did not know why but he had a bad feeling about the silent disappearance of the announcer.

"Has this happened before? Has an announcer abruptly left before? Or has an announcer left so quietly before that most people wouldn't even notice his disappearance?"

Corey asked and Divine furrowed his brows as he pondered on the question for a few seconds before he replied:

"Well… There have been instances were an announcer would leave, but… another announcer would usually take his or her place."

As Divine spoke, the nonchalance in his tone disappeared as he also started having a bad premonition. But just as various thoughts were about to appear in his mind, something unusual happened.

[COUGH COUGH… CAN I GET YOUR ATTENTION PEOPLE… CAN I PLEASE GET YOUR ATTENTION PEOPLE.]

A voice filled with a strange and dangerous charisma, reverberated throughout the Amphitheater, drawing everybody's attention towards the source, which was a large holographic screen that appeared out of nowhere.

But when Corey and Divine both looked at the holographic screen, Corey squinted his eyes and a confused light appeared in his eyes, but Divine, had his pupils constricting way past the limits and his fists clenched so hard that popping sounds resounded from his fists.

'No way.'

[HOW ABOUT WE SPICE THIS PLACE UP A LIL BIT SHALL WE… IT'S BEEN GETTING KIND OF BORING RECENTLY.]
