Chapter 323: Sneak Attack
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Simultaneously, a reddish layer of fire appeared over Charles's body.
Although he still couldn't move his body in the [Time Stop] skill affected Domain, he could at least use two skills at that moment.
'Arcane Eyes skill and the Hands of Wonder skill… I've to put these two into good use now.'
First, he cast [Arcane Eyes] skill and stared at Red Prince to grasp any secrets.
Simultaneously, he released a single invisible string and let it move towards the Red Prince's right earring.
'30 more seconds.'
That was the maximum time Charles could maintain the 'Time-Stop' ability.
The invisible string moved towards Red Prince's right side ear slowly.
Meanwhile, Charles also used his Rank-4 Mind Fire spell on the Red Prince and attacked his Inner World.
Unfortunately, his spell didn't succeed at all.
'Is it because Red Prince's soul isn't in this body? Or, my spell got erased even before I knew it?'
While he was in muse, a breaking voice echoed in his head.
'Time Decelerate effect… Not a bad artifact.'
Upon hearing those words, Charles got stunned.
'He can also think in Time Stop effect?'
Charles soon returned to normal and started forming a plan.
In truth, his actual purpose was to use Rachel's and Oswald's strength and find out the full extent of the Red Prince's powers.
Thankfully, they indeed co-operated with him and forced the Red Prince to the corner.
'If I used Fire Domain much earlier, things might've gone in a completely different direction.'
While he was thinking, the invisible string soon touched the Red Prince's right side earring, entered the hoop, and made a knot.
Then, the string's tip changed its direction, moved towards the other side of his ear, and soon touched the Red Prince's left side earring.
By the time the invisible ring was attached to both of his earrings, 30 seconds time limit had already passed!
The next instant, the 'Time Stop' effect got ended.
Following that, a strange silence appeared in the Fire Domain.
Without any hesitation, both Charles and the Red Prince distanced themselves and looked at each other warily.
Before the Red Prince could take the initiative to attack, Charles suddenly raised his hand, caught something in the air, and retracted it.
Then, he touched his space ring and stored the 'Star Watch' into it.
Meanwhile, Red Prince stared at his action in confusion and shook his head.
"You've indeed grown strong… No, far stronger than what I had imagined, Charles. But killing me with your current strength is still an impossible task."
Although Charles still hadn't shown his full strength, Red Prince could vaguely tell that he hadn't entered the realm of Pseudo-Legendaries.
'As long as I have the earrings, I can escape without any problem-' He suddenly got an uneasy feeling as those thoughts crossed his mind.
He then subconsciously raised his hand, touched his right ear, and soon widened his eyes!
"You stole my earrings?" He couldn't hide his shock at all.
Meanwhile, a smirk appeared on Charles's face.
"Do you really think I don't know of my own limits?" He let out a chuckle, raised his hand, and cast the [Finger of Destruction] spell.
A chaotic bullet came out of his finger, tore through the air, and almost appeared in front of Red Prince's forehead.
But just as the bullet was about to land, Red Prince casually raised his blackish hand and blocked it.
If it were before, the chaotic bullet would have broken into two and released chaos fire energy before creating large-scale destruction.
But now, the Red Prince's blackish hand released strange curse energy, corrupted Charles's [Finger of Destruction] spell, and ultimately disintegrated it!
"My right hand can release a destructive curse called 'Void Shatter.' Although I can only use it for the next few minutes, it is more than enough to kill ten of you." A cold voice echoed in the Fire Domain.
Upon hearing those words, the corner of Charles's lips twitched.
'He really is difficult to kill, huh.' He muttered with a gloomy look on his face.
At that moment, Oswald also flew black towards the sky, arrived beside Charles, and stared at the Red Prince coldly.
Upon seeing his grandfather's arrival, Charles let out a deep sigh and shook his head.
"You are not his match, old man. I'll take care of him."
Saying so, he used his thoughts and directly transported him out of his Fire Domain!
'Although Oswald seems to have some trump cards, he isn't strong enough to battle this devil head-on. Moreover, he'll hinder me from going all out.' While thinking, he suddenly extended both of his hands, released his full wisdom power, and increased the gravity in his Fire Domain to 5 times!
For the first time, surprise and shock appeared on Red Prince's face.
"Gravity Magic? When did you learn this?" He asked.
On the other hand, Charles cast [Fire Born] spell first and turned his body into a pure fire-born humanoid creature.
Then, he cast [Flame Teleportation] spell and disappeared from there.
A moment later, he reappeared behind the Red Prince and was about to cast the [Black Inferno] spell but stopped.
At that moment, a total of 25 different images appeared in front of his eyes.
Simultaneously, he also used [Accelerate Thoughts] skill and started to notice that the whole Domain seemed to have slowed down!
Along with the high gravity in his Fire Domain, Red Prince's movement appeared more like sloth's one!
But what made him frown was that he couldn't read his next moment at all!
'As expected, he must be using his [Fate Vision] skill to seeing the changes in my fate strings.'
Without minding his next movement, Charles turned his attention towards the future images and curled his lips upward.
At that moment, each of those images showed the Red Prince's next possible actions!
Instead of attacking, Charles suddenly disappeared from there and reappeared on Red Prince's right side.
Almost simultaneously, he turned his gaze towards the Red Prince and cast [Burning Thoughts] on him.
Unfortunately, that spell got instantly nullified and gave him no opportunity to attack!
At that moment, Red Prince glanced at him with much difficulty, opened his mouth, and spoke.
"Devour Mind."
A second later, a dense ball of purple flame appeared in the depths of Charles's mind!
'Mind Fire!' His expression hardened.
The purple fire began to shape-shift within a second and soon formed into a giant 3-meter tall worm!
Upon sensing this, Charles didn't get anxious, though.
He calmly linked his mind with the System Cube, moved his attention towards the [Erase Consciousness] ability.
'Even though the purple worm is just a spell, it still has a Will in it.' He calmly analyzed the situation as he backed away from the Red Prince and activated the ability.
The next instant, an invisible ripple appeared from the System Cube, moved towards the newly formed purple worm, and completely erased it!
Before the Red Prince could even perceive the failure of his attack, Charles once again disappeared from he was hovering and reappeared behind him.
But the next instant, he suddenly sensed that his whole surroundings started to distort.
Even his 'Future Vision' skill failed to warn this attack!
Then, Charles's body turned blurry suddenly and appeared in front of the Red Prince!
On the other hand, the Red Prince seemed to have long prepared for this and moved his eerie black hand.
Even though Charles was in his 'Fire Born' spell appearance, his instinct started to scream all of a sudden!
His face turned pale in an instant.
Upon seeing his appearance, the Red Prince made a mocking smile and spoke.
"Farewell."
The next instant, his eerie black hand touched Charles's chest.
Simultaneously, his whole flame body started to turn eerie black!
'Sh*t!'
Noticing this, Charles backed away in a hurry and shouted.
"Heart of Fire."
Just as his words ended, his whole body got enveloped in a strange yellowish-red flame and erased the corrosion effect!
He then raised his hand, glared at the Red Prince, moved his fingers like he was manipulating something invisible, and pulled it towards him!
The next instant, a sharp dagger suddenly appeared behind Red Prince, tore through the air, and stabbed into his back!
It was the same dagger that Runeth personally created two months ago!
But what shocked Red Prince was not the sneak attack, but the thing that entered his bloodstream through the dagger!
'Poison? No… It… i-s… af-fe-ti-ng… m-y…th-in-ki-ng…' He was horrified.
Not only that, but the strange poison also paralyzed Red Prince's body.
Before he could even think further, Charles cast [Flame Teleportation] spell, disappeared from there, and soon appeared behind the Red Prince.
Then, he calmly placed his hand on his back and spoke in a cold tone.
"I know that killing you with my current strength is almost impossible." He deliberated for a moment and then added coldly.
"But who said I'm the one who is going to kill you?"
Before the Red Prince could even understand his words, an old man's voice echoed in his ears.
"Erase Existence!"
The next instant, Red Prince's sluggish thoughts started to disappear one by one.
