Child of Destiny

...…

As Himura was running away from another attempt at encirclement of the Legion of the Chaotic Sun, he suddenly noticed that something was amiss. He could not figure out what exactly it was, but his rich experience as a veteran ranker was telling him that something went wrong somewhere.

He was sure that everything was under control. The surrounding area was still within his expectations, especially when this spot was one of the places that he was very familiar with in the entire battle arena.

But this familiarity was also the one that was telling him that something was not right. Everything was too normal, unlike the other areas that were filled with traps and ambush points of his opponent.

He was somewhat aware that he was somehow running within the depths of his enemy’s formation, which was supposed to be heavily guarded, especially when the summoner should be somewhere in this place.

This was the reason why he kept on running in this direction aside from finding this route to be the weakest link of the formation.

He then came to realize that he was now locked within an encirclement after using one of his scouting skills. "What!? Since when did I-…"

He was unable to believe what had happened, so he quickly summoned a spirit eagle that flew high up in the sky to confirm his realization.

Swoosh!

Not long after, the eagle circled in the air, looking in every direction, and saw that a huge net formation was thrown at him within his notice.

He also figured out why he had never realized this. The net was so large that it encompassed a huge portion of this section of the battle arena. It was covering an area that was beyond his senses, which was why he failed to notice what was happening.

Chaotic Luck had spent quite a lot of time and effort just to reach this point, so he would never let it slip from his hands.

Shin had always told him that there was no perfect plan for the timing to execute your plan. The opportunity would present itself, seemingly telling him that it was the perfect time to reveal his cards.

Chaotic Luck had never understood this as he was not like Shin who was an intuitive type of strategist, who could sense the right opportunity that was about to arrive. Following his instincts had always been his style.

It was only at this moment that Chaotic Luck understood what Shin meant after seeing this current situation.

"Always seize the opportunity once it arrives!" mumbled Chaotic Luck as he saw that it was the right time to reveal his cards.

Moreover, as if his opponent was ’coordinating’ well with him, the spot that Himura had ’chosen’ to stand was the same place where he had hidden one of his strongest undead monsters.

"Reveal yourself! Blazing Brilliance!" shouted Chaotic Luck as he communicated with that particular undead.

Swoosh!

As Himura was sharing vision with his spirit eagle, he suddenly sensed the temperature in the spot that he was standing on was sharply rising.

This was a sign that a powerful soldier of the Legion of the Chaotic Sun was about to appear.

"This is bad!" he immediately realized that he had not only got trapped in the net that his opponent had cast, but he also had ’fallen’ right into the spot that the opposing side wanted him to be.

He swiftly retreated, getting away from that spot as fast as he could.

Bang!

Not long after, a skeleton knight cladded in exquisite armor with blazing runes engraved on its edges. It was not wearing a helmet to protect its head, but the skull itself was wrapped with a violent flame dancing along with the wind.

Its eyes also had a brilliant ember each, acting as its pupils. Such an appearance made it more ferocious, giving off a suffocating pressure that was added to the heat that its body was passively emitting.

There was also a broadsword in its right hand. Right behind the sharp edges of this blazing sword was the line of blazing runes that highlighted the bade itself.

Roar!

This skeleton knight breathed out blazing steam as it stared fiercely at Himura, seemingly acting like a ferocious beast that locked its eyes on its prey.

Himura immediately sensed an immense threat coming from this particular skeleton knight, especially when it stood ’calmly’ in the middle of the raining dirt that was thrown in the air due to its appearance.

Nocking a special arrow on his bow, Himura swiftly raised his arms and aimed forward. Right after he pulled the string of the bow in a full arc, the surrounding air quickly rushed at him and gathered at the nocked arrow.

He did not wait that long before a spiraling tornado surrounded his arrow, signifying the massive amount of accumulated mana on it.

Twang!

Not long after, he released the bowstring and the arrow at the same time, sending a powerful shot toward the blazing skeleton knight.

Swoosh!

Rumble!

A spiraling gust of wind was formed as the arrow flew forward, shredding everything in its path. It fully showcased its destructive power as it flew forward.

Roar!

But despite all of that, this Blazing Brilliance stared at the incoming attack fearlessly. As a skeleton knight equivalent to the Death Knight of the other necromancer classes, it showed its unshakable might and heroic spirit when it was alive!

Boom!

The dancing flame surrounding its body blazed even fiercer, seemingly summoning a pillar of fire. But not long after, this blazing pillar formed an image of a huge skull with its flames, resembling the image of the Blazing Brilliance.

However, it was hard to tell the differences as both of them were skulls already.

Not long after, the skeleton knight tightly gripped its broadsword and slashed it down, seemingly trying to cut down the incoming storm.

This action resembled a man trying to destroy a natural disaster with all his might.

Boom!

A blazing trial was drawn in the air before slashing through the incoming tornado. It was mighty, but still failed to fully cut the violent and destructive wind that the tornado had.

The blazing trail only lasted for a couple of seconds before it was completely devoured by the spinning wind.

The people watching this exchange were anticipating an epic clash, similar to those collisions between the apex gods of the game. Familiar explosions were supposed to appear in this instant, yet nothing special had happened.

The live audience and the online viewers felt that the mighty entrance of that blazing skeleton knight was nothing but a false bravado.

It was slightly better looking compared to regular skeleton soldiers, but its strength seemed to be only a little above them as well.

Himura, who was also feeling a little panic earlier, could not help but furrow his brows due to this scene. It was not something that he had expected to happen.

He did not dare to lower his guard as he was afraid that there was another ambush, but he subconsciously lowered his bow to slightly relax his arms after firing such a powerful shot.

Swoosh!

But right after he did that action, his expression suddenly turned ugly as he felt a movement from the chaotic scene before him. Experience more content on Freewebnovel

Due to the violent wind of his ’Tornado Shot,’ the area before him was filled with dirt, mud, and broken pieces of trees flying in the air. These substances created a veil, blocking his line of sight.

Swoosh!

Not long after, a dark silhouette suddenly broke through that veil and flew straight to Himura with an imaginable speed.

Shing!

At the same time, the familiar sound of a sharp object cutting through the air suddenly rang in the air, signifying the incoming strike.

Swoosh!

Not long after, that silhouette turned into a blazing image that drew a blazing trail in the air while rapidly moving toward Himura and targeting his neck.

With an ugly expression, Himura hurriedly raised his bow while activating one of the rare melee skills of his class that could be used to protect himself from such occasions.

Bang!

He might have successfully blocked the incoming strike, but the difference in strength was immediately revealed right after the collision.

But instead of panicking, Himura swiftly leaped in the air and skillfully rode the momentum of that strike to fly in the opposite direction.

Swoosh!

Adjusting his position in the air, Himura started firing a series of shots toward the Blazing Brilliance, trying to slow down its movements.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

But in response, the skeleton knight swiftly sprinted forward, giving a full chase. It also moved side to side, executing the most basic Z-Shake technique that veteran players in such situations to avoid the incoming arrows and shake off the aim of their opponent.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The Blazing Brilliance left a series of explosions behind as it avoided each of the arrows, letting the dirt fly in the air.

Himura knew that such attacks were not enough to prevent the other party from approaching, so he planned to gamble another powerful skill right after his foot touched the ground.

He quickly squatted his hips, assuming a battle posture, before fulling the string of his bow, which turned into a giant bow after a huge amount of nature’s mana was infused with it.

He was about to release the mana-infused arrow when his peripheral vision caught something moving at him from a different direction.

Swoosh!

Its speed was so fast that Himura was forced to abandon the idea of firing the arrow toward the Blazing Brilliance and pointed it at the newcomer instead.

Right after he turned his aim and looked at the incoming figure, his face immediately contorted as he saw an armored giant charging at him.

It had a massive and muscular body covered with armor made of bones from different creatures. The helmet protecting its head, on the other hand, seemed to be made from the skull of a giant hybrid between a goat, bull, and bison.

Its body movements resembled a mixture of a galloping bear and a knuckle-running of a gorilla while charging at Himura.

This undead monster was something equivalent to a Corpse Golem of a regular Necromancer Class.

Chaotic Luck called it the Sol Behemoth!

Seeing the incoming giant, Himura knew that the other elite undead was heading his way, changing the tides of the battle.

Starting from this moment, he was not riding the waves of his opponent’s tides, signifying the final countdown of this match.

Twang!

While he was thinking of ways to escape this current predicament, Himura released the mana-infused arrow and sent it toward the incoming giant undead, forcing it to halt its advance.

Boom!

With an ugly expression, Himura finally accepted that he had lost all his face after being forced into such a situation by a rookie on the professional scene.

He had never seen even the shadow of his opponent since the start of the battle, making him a laughingstock within the veteran circle.

In such a situation, he could no longer afford to hide his trump cards. He was hoping to use it for the future, saving it for crucial situations.
