Awakened: SSS Ranked Soul king-Chapter 44: Class Ascept
Fighting an opponent that could just disappear was definitely something to be afraid of. Who knows? He might be seconds away from peircing his heart.
Guilliman put his guard up immediately, what followed was a barrage of punches that instantly broke his jaw Causing him to bleed from his nose.
"Fuck!!" Guilliman cursed, raising his hand to guard against the incoming attacks, but how could he guard against something he couldn’t see?
Boom
Boom
Booom
He kept getting struck from all sides, but he maintained his composure, quickly thinking.
Class Ascepts, he knew about these, it was an ability granted to Slayers after they cross the threshold of Blue and chose a class.
For people with predetermined bloodlines, it was much easier to initiate the class ritual while others had to actively find a way to go through it just like Guilliman.
However there were cons to the method of initiating an unknown ritual like that, as every class had its flaws.
Take the shaman class( Soul King in Guillimans case) dispite being born with exceptionally strong souls which allowed them to use their powers, they were constantly using large chuncks of soul essence in battles. So they devised several methods to not only control, but also replenish their soul powers.
This was the same for the blackberry family and their inherit class, but not Vincent. It seemed like he was charting an unexplored class, this early on? He couldn’t be well toned to it.
That meant that he had a weakness, one that Guilliman could hopefully exploit.
Feeling a punch rush towards him Guilliman took it standing and grabbed Vincent’s arm twisting it before using his leg to put im in a choke hold.
He was invincible, not intangible, a clear sign from him being able to hit him so often. This was Guillimans first conjecture.
However, he was wrong, as in the next second Vincent seemed to fade out of the choke hold and squirm into somewhere else.
"Damn it!!"
Not wasting a second Guilliman got up and jumped back by several steps his gaze firmly planted on the floor, this class Ascept was definitely not a joke.
"Maybe…" Guillimans mind went into overdrive as he started thinking of what to do, what he knew and what the case might be.
Mid way through his thought process, a blast of mana came crashing down at him From a distance clearly visible so he used his rabbit braces to dodge.
But the strikes kept raining down forcing some of the higher level slayers around to take action and stop stray beams from hitting the other participants.
This fight was getting out of hand, but for some reason the Blacksteel lord didn’t stop it.
He looked seriously Guilliman as a confused smile appeared on his face.
For the past few seconds it seemed like Guilliman had been looking directly at the invisible Vincent. Yes, directly where the young man was!! Even he could only see the kid because of the subtle undulations of his powers but guilliman was in the same level as the Vincent , it didn’t make sense for him to see it.
That kind of perception was not normal,
’Can he really see the kid or is he using the strikes to determine his postion’
The Blacksteel lord thought for a second before throwing it to the back of his mind. That latter couldn’t be the case because even when slashes of energy weren’t raining down on him Guiliman was still following his footsteps subtly.
The moment the blackberry kid displayed his terrifying ability, the Blacksteel lord started thinking of a way to counter him like he did all the other powerful people in the city.
He didn’t need to look too far though, it seemed like the kid he was facing already found it.
Guillimans eyes glowed with a supernatural light as he stared at a living ball of soul energy running round the stage.
The Blacksteel lord was correct, guilliman was able to see Vincent, though not his body, but the ilumimation from his soul.
Never the less, he could track him, but what good would that do? With his ability to turn incorporeal seeing him was useless unless he thoroughly understood his powers.
"Well, it’s starting to make sense….but still" Guilliman was a bit reluctant. He felt like he knew enough, but what he needed to do was to knock Vincent out with one heavy and unblockable strike, if not he would just get up.

He couldn’t risk him going incorporeal and doing something like pulling his heart out.
"Hmmmm" taking out a large breath of air, Guilliman subtly caused a sword to appear in his hand.
This sword was white, with a covered hill that seemed attachéd to Guilimans very arm itself by a long robe mass. The sword also emitted a dangerous light that caused Vincent’s blade to pale in comparison.
Such might could only bear the semblance of a Sacred Echo of a king Code beast.
Not even giving Vincent the time to gasp in shock, Guiliman rushed in his precise direction.
To those on the outside, he had picked a random location, but soon after the sound of a metallic clash resounded from thin air as Guilliman and Vincent clashed.
"I see you" he smirked for a breif moment then
"Wind gale!!" His Sword was consumed with wind energy pushing Vincent off his feet, in an instant his body became weightless as he was sent crashing into the back wall behind him by and overwhelming force, knocking him out cold.
From revealing the sacred echo of king code to revealing that he could in fact see him took about a few seconds, each of which were a massive shock to Vincent.
His prized accomplishment, his class Ascept had been seen through by a random no body??!! Was it all in his head? Was it really just a shitty Ascept he had gotten from that harrowing trial?
He didn’t know, he couldn’t, he was already out cold.
The whole crowd went silent as the participants exchanged looks of altering emotions. Had a slum rat really just defeated the young master of one the most noble families?
Insane!!
Those from the slums let out loud cheers all of a sudden shocking Guilliman. He turned to them in confusion, but upon seeing the looks on their faces he couldn’t help but shake his head.
He had unintentionally made some fans
