Single Wish: Rise Of The Omniscient Paragon-Chapter 688 - 687: Your Skill

He was about to take a step forward, but then he heard an extremely subtle buzz.

The buzz was so subtle to the point that he thought he was hearing things but his instincts told him otherwise. As an Apex Predator, his senses were extremely beyond average, especially his hearing ability.

He subconsciously glanced at Jamal, and then he saw a tiny fly hovering around Jamal's metallic shield.

'A fly?'

Prince frowned, and then he saw not just one fly but two, then five, and then ten.

Prince's frown deepened as a baffled expression appeared on his face. The flies were doing nothing but flying around Jamal's metallic shield which was covering his entire body, but Prince's instincts warned him that this flies were extremely dangerous.

Unfortunately, due to the shield, Jamal could not see what was going around him, only perceive it. And for something as small as a fly, he was certain that Jamal would not be able to sense it.

Just as Prince was wondering about what he should do, he saw a hole appear in Jamal's shield due to the acidic poison of the Noxious Chains, and then Prince watched as the flies entered the hole at an extremely fast speed.

"Look out!"

Prince shouted a warning, and although he had no idea what the fly was, he trusted his instincts.

He took a step forward, but then...

Buzz

He heard a buzz extremely close to his ears, and Prince's eyes widened. He subconsciously slapped the right side of his face, causing a loud Pa! to echo in the surroundings.

Prince quickly looked at his hand, and he saw that he had killed the fly or at least, what he thought was a fly.

"What the hell is this?"

Prince wondered as he stared at what he thought was a fly but was instead an insect with a dark purple body, blue eyes, dark grey wings, and three scorpion tails.

Prince had never seen such an insect before, and he could not help but be fascinated and disgusted by the insect.

His instincts took over, and he slowly brought the dead insect to his mouth, but a hand grabbed his wrists.

"What do you think you're doing?"

Prince's head snapped to his right, and his eyes widened way past its limits as he stared at Corey who had suddenly appeared beside him.

His golden double triangle pupils which glowed with a cold light sent shivers down Prince's spine.

"How? How are you this close to me?"

Prince nearly stuttered, but Corey gave no reply. He opened Prince's hand, and slowly took the insect from his hand.

Prince watched in disbelief as Corey kept the dead strange insect inside his breast pocket. He looked at his feet, and an extremely baffled expression appeared on his face as his body swayed and he increased the distance between him and Corey.

"Answer me! How did you get so close to me?!"

Prince shouted with wide eyes that contained countless questions, shock, disbelief, uncertainty, and also... Fear.

Corey calmly looked at Prince and then he shook his head while exhaling softly.

"I come understand you, you know... I understand your fear."

"With a skill like yours, the number of things you'll have to fear especially at your current power are very few. Hell, if I had a skill like yours, I don't think I'll be afraid of anybody to be honest."

Corey gestured at Prince, and then he slowly and calmly approached him with the same expression he had from the moment he unleashed his domain.

"Your skill devours everything... Or should I say, almost everything."

"It can passively devour both physical things, energy, and even spiritual things in a meter radius around you, and when it's active, it can devour all of these things in a ten meter radius and the maximum should be fifty meter radius."

Prince's eyes widened in shock, and he subconsciously took a step back.

"H-Ho-How do you know that?"

"I'm special." Corey indifferently replied, and then he continued.

"As I was saying, your skill can devour almost everything, and to be honest, I've been racking my brains on how to defeat you because I can't get close to you."

"If I get close to you or unleash an attack on you, that... thing in you, around you, and beneath you would devour me or at least try to devour me which is extremely dangerous for me."

"I can't hit you with my fists, I can't attack you from afar with weapons or mana because you'll absorb everything. I can't do any of that, so how the hell do I kill you?"

"Poison?"

"If I had a very powerful poison that'll kill you quickly enough, then sure, but as you can see, your body has already absorbed the poison I subtly infused in you before all of this happened."

"So how? How? How do I get close enough to you to kill you? How do I kill you?"

Corey smiled coldly as the distance between him and Prince shortened, and to Prince's horror, Corey entered the ten meter mark of the ultimate skill he was extremely proud of.

"As I was thinking about this, I suddenly remembered that I had illusion abilities, but how does this help you might ask, right?"

"Even if I put you under an illusion, your skill would autonomously attack me once I enter its radius. Your skill is very annoying because it's like a living entity to be honest."

Corey shook his head, and then his body suddenly swayed and Prince's pupils shook as Corey's golden triangular pupils appeared directly in front of him and was reflected in his pupils.

"Anyway... Do you know what I did?"

Corey asked with a dark smile, and Prince screamed.

"DIE!"

Corey shook his head, and then Prince's clawed hands swiped at Corey's face but Corey's figure faded like an after image.

Prince's eyes widened and he looked around in shock, but then a hand grabbed the back of his neck and lifted him up like a child, and then he heard it.

The whisper of the Smile Reaper.

"I decided to put your skill under an illusion."

The instant Prince heard Corey's words, his soul, body, and entire being shook in disbelief.
