Chapter 23: All Out
Chapter 23: All Out
Arze, who hadn't taken Raven seriously until now, was shocked. Even though his face didn't reveal any expressions, his eyes clearly revealed some apprehensions.
Raven's aura had grown notably stronger, enhancing both his physical strength and speed beyond what he had anticipated. The intensity of his newfound power left him somewhat apprehensive.
Zezel was taken aback by Raven's astonishing display of power. It was something he had never seen before. Raven vanished in a split second, and the ground underneath them shook violently. A crack appeared on the spot where Raven was standing moments ago.
While Zezel was still stunned by the sudden change of Raven, he felt a cold hand around his neck.
When he realized what happened, his head was smashed on the ground. Raven took advantage of his distraction. Moreover, the force that Raven used was enough to crush the skull of Zezel, making him bleed. However, that wasn't enough, as Raven also stabbed a sword in his chest.
It had only been two seconds since he used Berserker, and he had already killed one of the remaining five Rankers. However, he didn't lose himself in that feeling.
Even though the Berserker skill decreased his intelligence and slowed down his thoughts, he knew that he only had thirty seconds. If he didn't end this fight by then, it was his loss.
He pulled out his Nameless Sword, throwing it toward Tricia. At the same time, he rushed toward Archangel Izia.
Unlike Zezel, Izia was already out of her initial surprise. She didn't give Raven that same advantage. Her beautiful blue wings spread around her back as she shot in the air.
However, Raven didn't let her be, tapping the ground as he jumped above.

A beautiful lightning Armor appeared around Izia. At the same time, multiple lightning bolts appeared around her, flying straight for Raven.
In the background, Raven's Sword stabbed Tricia before she could even move. Tricia had incredible healing, which made her not worry about such a level of attack initially, but even her expression turned dark as she realized that Raven's Sword was something different!
Her healing had entirely stopped working as soon as the sword stabbed her.
Tricia grabbed the hilt of the sword to pull her out.
"Argh!"
As soon as she grabbed the hilt of the Nameless Sword, a painful scream escaped her pale lips.
She felt a deep chill creep through her body, along with a terrifying pain. It was as if the Sword was resisting her grasp. At the same time, the Sword was sucking all her strength! She couldn't even remove her hand from the sword.
Her face turned pale, and her clothes were covered in blood. Her body started turning illusory before she disappeared. The Nameless Sword dropped to the ground.
....
High in the sky, Raven faced multiple lightning bolts that rushed straight for him. He couldn't even change his direction from this close range. However, he didn't hesitate.
He grabbed the corner of his robe, wrapping it all around him.
All the lightning bolts hit him, making him groan in pain. However, in Berserker mode, his defense was stronger. His ability to feel pain was also lowered in this phase.
Moreover, the robe was a high-tier item, which further lowered the damage. However, Raven couldn't avoid all the damage.
As he moved the beautiful robe aside, his pale face was revealed. His lips were bleeding, yet his speed was still the same.
Even Izia was frozen momentarily, finding Raven right before her.
Before she could react, Raven grabbed her throat. Since Izia had a lightning Armor around her, as soon as Raven held her, he felt a fierce electric current coursing through his body which made him scream in pain as well.
Even with lowered pain perception, he still felt a terrifying pain. However, he didn't take off his hand. If anything, he only tightened his grip until he heard a cracking sound.
It was only when he crushed Izia's throat that he stopped. On the other hand, her body also started turning illusory, disappearing.
Fifteen seconds had already passed as Raven landed on the ground with his legs trembling slightly. He only had fifteen seconds left, and there was still one person left to fight... The person that Raven hated the most in this world!
Arze was standing silently until now. However, he couldn't help but ask, "Why do you show me such bloodlust? What did I do to you?"
"You took everything from me..." Raven picked up the Nameless Sword from the ground. "And now, I'll take everyone from you... From the real you... I'll make your life a living hell..."
Arze frowned. Something didn't make sense. The person wasn't a Draconian. So he couldn't have come from their World. Moreover, he was still in the Bloodline Trial, which meant he still hadn't entered Hellfire completely. So how did he even interact with him to the point that he hated him so much?
He was curious and wanted to know more. Unfortunately, Raven didn't appear interested in answering.
Raven rushed ahead! He had to take everyone from Arze, and that started with taking his shadow first and then his top ranking in the Bloodline Trial! And that was just the start!
Arze let out a disappointed sigh before raising his High Tier Sword as well.
"You're the most interesting player that I've seen until now in this Bloodline Trial. Unfortunately, you should've given up while you had a chance. Because the path you took only ends in death!"
Clank~
The two swords clashed with each other. Both men were pushed back a few steps from the impact.
But they quickly recovered and resumed the deadly dance. Each sword strike was filled with the intent to kill, and each dodge was a matter of life and death.
Every passing moment felt like an eternity as the resounding clash of swords echoed through the arena, causing it to tremble and quake under the force of the two players' blows.
