452 Isolated Dimension
Michael stared at Kidd’s back with remorse. In his life, never would have thought that his best friend would betray him one day.
With Kidd’s words, Michael watched as the five masked figures charged at him. Each of them had their numbers on their smiley mask. Ninety-five, ninety-four, ninety-three, ninety-two, and ninety-one. He didn’t what’s the number is for.
Michael’s body turned into inky black goo. He realized that the environment they are in doesn’t have much shadows that he can use, only the shadows of his opponents.
Suddenly, three figures arrived beside Michael. A spear, a dagger, and a sword went through his neck and his head.
Yet, they couldn’t damage him because his body was currently immune to physical damage.
Michael blended with number ninety-three using his shadow blend. Then the left arm of the opponent’s shadow turned into a dagger.
The dagger moved and hit number ninety-one.
“What are you doing!?” number ninety-one shouted after seeing one of his teammates attack him.
“No, I can’t control my arm!” Ninety-three infused degu energy in his left arm to stop it.
.....
‘Just as I thought. I can’t still control an S rank.’ Michael came out from the opponent’s shadow and distanced himself from them.
“No matter what you do, it would be useless!” The masked figure with the number on his ninety-one raised his hand. A green flame came out and took the form of a dragon.
Seeing this, the other numbers followed, each with their own attacks. The fist of one of them was covered by lightning. Then the other summoned a blue wolf.
A strong wave came out of the wolf’s mouth as it howled madly.
Michael took a deep breath. He knew that his shadow physique won’t be able to save him against the energy attacks coming from S ranks. ‘Damn, what should I do? If only Fein was here...’
Suddenly, Michael’s shadow wriggled, and hundreds of sharp tentacles came from it and shot out toward the green flame dragon. Every tentacle was infused with his degu energy.
This is Michael’s new ability application after he ascended to S rank. He called it ‘Shadow Manipulation’ He could manipulate the surrounding shadows.
Unfortunately, there’s not much shadow around him, which reduces the versatility and effectiveness of his ability.
Just like that, hundreds of sharp tentacles collided with the green flame dragon. In the end, the shadow tentacles instantly melted. They couldn’t resist the temperature of the green flame.
Michael already knew the outcome. After all, the gap between S rank and A rank wasn’t something he could overcome with his new ability.
As the flame dragon got nearer and nearer, Michael felt despair. He saw also notice the four masked figures behind the green flame dragon. Two of them were carrying weapons that shimmered with blue and red lights.
A shadow armor wrapped around Michael’s body.
Kidd, on the other hand, watched all this expressionlessly.
‘Is it my end? No, I won’t go down that easily!
Just like that, the green flame dragon arrived and swallowed Michael’s figure.
“Let’s go! He should be dead.”
The other masked figures nodded and deactivated their abilities.
Kidd sighed and closed his eyes. His arms trembled for a moment before they stopped.
“Cloud Counter!”
Before the members of the Laughing Phantom could even leave. Michael’s voice echoed through their ears.
And suddenly, the green flame dragon emerged in the void, perfectly similar to the one before. It then shot out towards the masked figures.
Behind the dragon, Michael stood unscathed. His body was covered with bright light. One would see a white armor on the gap of his shadow armor.
“Ranade, come out for me!” The light of the white armor under the black shadow armor becomes brighter and brighter.
Michael could feel a tremendous amount of degu energy was consumed in the process. Then, in his armor, a white flame dragon came out.
“What it is this time master?” Ranade, the cloud dragon asked in a deep voice.
“Go and attack them for me.” Tiredness was apparent on Michael’s face.
Just like that, a white flame dragon and a green flame dragon rushed toward the five members of the Laughing Phantom.
“He could actually reflect attacks?” Number ninety-four said with interest.
Kidd crossed his arms and answered. “He can only do it once. It’s the ability of his armor.”
“Your friend is really a genius.”
“He’s not. The true genius is the other one.” Kidd shook his head.
“The one outside? It’s a pity, he was against number eighty-one and the others. It’s his end.” Laughing Phantom member ninety-one said casually as if he simply said something in the passing.
Kidd has a hesitant expression on his face. After all, he knew just how strong Fein really was. But he decided to shut his mouth since it anger the five. After all, he was still in the probation stage. He would only become a true member of the Laughing Phantom once he ascended to the S rank realm.
“Well, it’s time to end this. This fight had become longer than necessary. Use your stronger attacks. Don’t use physical attack since his immune to it.” Number ninety-one opened his mouth wide. ‘Revolting Fire Tornado!’
The white flame dragon and the green flame dragon were only two meters closer to them.
“Crimson dark ball!”
“Omega blast finisher!”
“Dawn blade!”
Various colors such as black, red, blue, and red came out one after another as the Laughing Phantoms used their strongest abilities against Michael.
BANG!
With that, the white flame dragon and the green blame dragon collided with the Laughing Phantoms’ energy attacks.
A strong shockwave was produced as the energy attacks resisted each other. The cloud dragon, in particular, burned a black giant blade and a dark ball.
Michael flew into the air and took the opportunity to at least widen the distance between the enemy and him. He knew that the two dragon flames won’t be able to buy him much time, but he would still try to delay no matter how much small it is. He hopes that the artifact they used to isolate him has some time limit, or he’s really dead this time.
