The Bored Immortal

Chapter 139 - I Am Not The Only One

Viktor rolled his eyes, hearing Ayana's wild shout, and turned around, deciding to knock her out this time. He couldn't understand how she was able to get back up after he incapacitated her.

And just as before, he smirked, seeing her rush at him like a madwoman and saw her extending her leg to kick him in the stomach.

He couldn't believe she would try to kick him in such a predictable and slow fashion which did not match up to her previous attempts.

So he leisurely extended his hands to catch her leg and throw her away, "Seriously, you can't—"

"You are dead, hmph!" Ayana said with a crazed yet jubilant smile which made Viktor frown, thinking that something was up with her.

But before he could do anything, her leg smashed against his hands, which he was holding out and…

*BHAM!*

"Ayana, no!"

Before he could understand what just happened, he found himself being sent flying through the woods for more than a dozen meters, having his back smashed against a tree, fracturing his spine before falling down on the ground with a grunt.

"Ugh...what the fuck was that…" Viktor mumbled with a shocked grunt while his healing factor already began to kick in, allowing him to slowly get up.

His arms were also fractured from the blunt force of her shocking, powerful kick, but within a couple of seconds, they healed themselves back to their original state.

Viktor only suffered these injuries because he stayed in his human form. He believed that if he had been in his vampiric form, then it would have been a different story, at least.

But even in his human form, his body was at its strongest possible state, so much that there couldn't be any human in the world who could have a more powerful body than him naturally.

Knowing this and replaying what just happened, he finally thought that Nyissa and her people, especially Ayana, were no ordinary people.

This realization made him take in a sudden deep breath since this also meant that he was not the only one with mystical abilities.

If he was just an ordinary human, he would have thought of it all as just a dream or his mind playing tricks.

But since he himself was not entirely human with monstrous abilities, he finally realized that his suspicions of the existence of extraordinary beings like him were true indeed.

All these years of his life, he had always wondered how there could be no one else who had supernatural abilities like him and why he was the only one, different among the other humans.

But now, like puzzle pieces, everything was slowly falling into place in his mind as he could speculate why he never came upon people like Ayana before.

After all, if they wanted to hide their abilities, how could he possibly know, just like how others have no idea what he was.

'I have to get back!' But right now, he knew he had no time to stay and think about this matter and was ready to face them again and get the answers he wanted.

"Don't go!" A girl's voice sounded in his mind just like before, making Viktor halt his steps immediately.

"You are still in my mind? Where the hell did you go before?" Viktor didn't know why but he felt a bit glad to hear this strange girl's voice again.

"I was hiding! I couldn't let those Fujo Clan people find me. They could detect me if I interact with anyone near them, such as you. I was hoping you would get away from them, and fortunately, they themselves kicked you out here, hehe," The girl playfully giggled as if she found it amusing.

"Heh! We will see who will have the last laugh when I teach that cunning girl a lesson," Viktor said with pinched lips as he rolled up his sleeves.

"Don't! Not if you want to save your friend," The girl said in a grave tone.

Viktor realized that things seemed more serious than he expected and asked, "Okay. But before I listen to you, tell me who or what you are. Where are you right now?"

Viktor didn't want to simply trust this bewitching voice even if the situation was grave since he had no idea if she was leading him on to something worse.

"Ughh...this is not the time for you to ask me questions...Aahh...Fine! I am a spirit or a remnant of my soul that got left behind after my death due to certain reasons. That is why you can't see me, and right now, I am right beside you though I can only talk to you by talking in your mind. Otherwise, they would detect me even more easily."

"Spirit?" Viktor felt baffled and said in a tone of disbelief, "Don't tell me even stuff like ghosts and evil spirits are real? That's too…" Viktor had no idea what the world was coming to and found it surreal that he was conversing with a dead person right now.

If it was anybody else, they would have gotten scared out of their wits, but Viktor felt fascinated by this fact since he never believed in such supernatural things.

The fact that people like him exist was a matter he could digest because of what he was. But hearing dead people can roam the earth was beyond his understanding.

"No need to be so shocked. If people like you exist, then things like spirits, good or evil, exist. It's just that you never came upon existences like me. And right now, the evil spirits are none other than the men you massacred all those tens of centuries ago. If you don't want their wrath and resentment to destroy your friend and the world,...take my hand and follow me, quick!"

Before Viktor could realize it, he felt a soft hand of a girl grabbing his hand and pulling him along forward, "Wait!"

Meanwhile, a few minutes before, right after Ayana sent Viktor flying, she heard an angry shout from behind,

"Ayana!"
