The Rise Of Calamity

Chapter 189 - Day 9 V - You Overestimate Yourself

"Goddess. This is one of the overlords of the forest. He is considered powerful among the forest beasts and is known for being able to take on one of the peak Gaseous stage humans" the rabbit explained while kneeling.

"Really?" I looked at the lion wanting him to confirm what I had just heard.

"Yes..." The lion was almost speechless 

"Good, I'll need you for something" my bloodlust flooded out of my body while being unfused with uncontrolled battle intent and surges of silvery-golden lighting bolts. At the same time, the glint in my eye had turned even more malicious as the same lighting began to crackle around my body, almost identical to the god of lightning from my dreams, just on a much smaller scale.

The lion looked slightly shocked, however, it did not hesitate to create a fireball within its maw before launching it at me.

The blue flames vortexed towards the center of the fireball, creating a beautiful ball of blue flames that caused the grass around it to turn into ashes. Even I felt the scorching heat as the blue fireball slowly approached me, yet I kept my sadistic smile on without letting it twitch for a single second.

The beasts around me had started to panic, while some had already gone through the panicking stage and now skipped all the stages of grief, immediately reaching acceptance. Their only regret was listening to this so-called 'goddess' that had promised to help them.

In a split moment, I lifted my arm and pointed my relaxed hand at the fireball, the next second, it flicked up towards the fluorescent blue ball of destruction, and as if the ball of flames reacted to the sudden flick of the hand, a ripple passed throughout it.

In the same second, a golden barrier created from pure mana appeared a few meters in front of my hand, yet not close enough to the fireball to be affected. The next instant, an aqua blue light flashed in my eyes while aqua blue mana particles started to circulate and spin in clockwise motions. Consequently, this caused water to condense and also spin before elongating slightly.

On the other side of the golden barrier, the fireball for unknown reasons started to slow down both its speed of movement and the speed of the spin. Not only that, but it seemed like the ball of flames was only becoming smaller, going from a flame ball with 5 meters in radius to a ball barely 4 times the size of an average soccer ball. 

Eventually, the fireball hit the golden barrier and exploded into a beautiful scene where blue flames dispersed along the surface of the rounded barrier that covered me and all the beasts, therefore defending us from the flames.

The moment the lion saw this, however, it roared in anger, making the trees shake violently while the ground underneath it began to crack in a cobweb-like pattern. simultaneously, he tried to create another fireball within his mouth however, something it would have not imagined would ever happen to a beast of its caliber happened right in front of its eyes.

"Vacuum chamer" I muttered under my breath before watching the flame disappear.

Simultaneously, I deactivated my barrier and blasted the condensed ice spear I had been creating for the last few seconds. Using a mixture of the vacuum tunnel that I use for the majority of my sniper spells and a small controlled explosion to propel it, I caused the ice spear to dart across 18 meters in a matter of milliseconds. It moved as if its blur was a mere mirage while at the same time, it flashed with streaks of golden light created from the addition of the golden-silvery lighting.

The lion did not remain in its shocking state for too long as it immediately flapped its black wings and launched itself backward. Little did it know that I had already activated lighting of absolution as I watched the lion do exactly what I had expected it to do.

This was the power of the foresight skill...

Almost immediately, a powerful surge of both power and killing intent spread out in all directions, while at the same time, the feeling of danger made every single beast within a 100-meter radius feel their hairs stand up while simultaneously, I could not help but lick my lips after watching all the soul flames around me shudder.

Instantaneously, I flashed with golden light and disappeared while leaving nothing but an afterimage and the sound of thunder in the wake of my step. 

After watching me disappear from its line of sight, the lion could not help but feel like the hunter had turned into the prey. Simultaneously, it felt a could wind to its right making it dart its eyes to the right as fast as it possibly could. What it saw was me holding a white and gold katana that crackled with silvery-gold lighting bolts growing closer by the instant. The amount of danger it felt from the katana alone made it scared for its life, but when it looked at my face, it was scared for its existence.

To it, I was currently holding onto the most terrifying smile it had ever seen in its entire life, and to make the whole situation even worse, it could not move a single muscle under the pressure of my killing intent.

'T-This isn't the killing intent of mid-gaseous ranked human, nor is this the power a normal human can hold without their cheats... How is this possible? Don't tell me, she is actually... a Goddess?!' the lion was beyond terrified now. It did not even believe in the afterlife nor did it have time to think of such things, but if it had truly offended a goddess, would it go straight to the thing those humans call hell?
