Tap—
Ti stopped.
Kanzaki Rei stood face-to-face with the Level 8 advanced class user before him. In the frozen flow of spaceti, the distance between them was so small their faces were nearly touching.
So... a Level 8 warrior can completely keep up with my speed...
Just how vast was the gap between Level 7 and Level 8? Kanzaki Rei didn’t know. But he had heard that even across an entire sea region, Level 8 advanced class users were few enough to count on one hand.
During all his travels, Ansel had only ever encountered a handful.
I couldn’t even perceive how he moved.
His reaction speed far surpasses mine.
At the sa ti, Kanzaki Rei caught sight of the mage in the distance raising a finger. A rune had already locked onto him.
But he couldn’t decipher its aning.
He could only tell that it had evolved from a base rune.
"If the foundation is unstable, everything collapses."
Iz’s words flickered through his mind...
When they had sparred lightly over evolving magic, Iz had once said exactly that.
Tch—Why am I thinking about that now?
What does this have to do with weak fundantals? This is a Level 8 arcane rune—if it were Iz, she might not even be able to interpret it either.
Still...
Looking at the cluster of light glowing on the opponent’s body—
He could see the magic they possessed.
[Divine Talent · Beacon of All Laws]
If knowledge falls short, make up for it with talent.
That rune... should be:
[Eighth-Tier Arcane Magic: Dissection (LV: 15)]
An analytical arcane spell—equivalent to an observer’s scan. It could dissect enemy information, even replicate parts of their magic to a certain extent.
As expected of an eighth-tier spell...
But it wasn’t an offensive ability.
And more importantly, it was perfectly countered by his talent:
[Unsolvable Enigma]
No need to worry about it for now.
Aside from that rune... the real threats were the assassin’s kill strike, and—
...the soul attack from the Disciple of Ansu.
...
Surrounded on all sides.
His Transcendent Ascension State hadn’t stacked for long—his physical strength was only amplified by five thousand tis, and this entire battle hadn’t even lasted a full minute.
His damage reduction hadn’t built up at all.
Crack—
Ti resud.
BOOM!
The instant it flowed again, supre force pierced downward!
[Shatterflow — Second Form: Annihilation Strike]
[Firmant Flow — Fourth Form: Oblivion · Void]
Kanzaki Rei instantly phased into intangibility!
The opponent’s attack slamd directly into the earth—
BOOM!!
The entire continent caved inward like silk pierced by a needle!
Whoosh—
Then ca blade light that filled heaven and earth!
[Firmant Flow — Eighth Form: Chaos · Motion — Frozen Instant]
Hidden within the void, Kanzaki Rei exploded into extre speed for a split second—yet within that speed, his movent beca chaotic, randomly blinking across space.
In an instant, he had traveled over 100,000 kiloters away—
...and yet the blade light still reached him.
So this is... a Level 8 advanced class user.
His void state was about to end.
At the sa ti, his Final Perception foresaw the approaching danger—and already understood how to evade it.
Ding—
Hundreds of thousands of shield layers materialized instantly around him, stacking in the sa direction, aligned in a single line!
A hazy mist rose.
BANG—
In that instant, all those hundreds of thousands of shields were pierced through!
The mist churned—
—and within it, a figure invisible to the naked eye pierced straight through!
A Level 8 assassin!
Crack—
Splurt!
Kanzaki Rei exploded into a skyful of blood plasma.
So this... is the true power of a Level 8 advanced class user?
Last ti, when he fought Lomar, they had waited a full thirty minutes before starting. His damage reduction had stacked to astronomical levels...
But this ti, there had been no waiting at all.
In his blood-plasma state, Kanzaki Rei stopped ti again.
He sensed colorless slashing winds coming from all directions.
Tap—
Ti flowed once more!
PUPUPUPUPUPU—
In the very instant ti resud, every single drop of his blood was pierced by razor-sharp strikes!
Splurt!
From nowhere, millions of daggers appeared, pinning his scattered blood and flinging it in all directions!
Snap—
And yet—
Within a single drop of blood...
...the outline of Kanzaki Rei’s body had already begun to reform.
The mont he had been reduced to blood mist—
He had already begun regenerating from it.
Seeing this regeneration, Lottie’s pupils shrank slightly.
He can regenerate like this?
By all logic, being cut down to this extent should an death.
A normal person—without a heart, without a brain, reduced to blood mist—should already be dead.
Even Level 8 advanced class users—
most classes would still die under such conditions.
Unless they had so kind of substitute body or contingency prepared.
But right now—
this was clearly Kanzaki Rei’s true body.
He wasn’t relying on any backup plan.
He was forcibly regenerating through sheer regenerative power.
But the assassin was unbelievably fast—
even faster than the warrior!
Kanzaki Rei’s regeneration was already absurdly quick—so fast that under normal conditions, injury and healing occurred almost simultaneously.
Regenerating a complete body from a single drop of blood took less than one microsecond.
And yet—
Just as his brain began to take shape from a drop of blood—
A flash of cold light stabbed in!
Slash!
In an instant, that drop of blood mist was shredded into even finer particles!
But elsewhere—
Drops of blood pinned by daggers began to stir again, showing signs of regeneration.
Unkillable...
Even reduced to scattered blood mist, still regenerating.
BOOM!
A flicker of shock crossed Lottie’s mind.
This level of regeneration... it’s comparable to the old "Undying One" class.
BOOM—
But imdiately after—
An arcane rune descended from the sky!
It struck directly into the area where Kanzaki Rei’s blood mist had scattered!
Each particle of blood rose into the air—
...and began to be erased!
The spell’s domain completely enveloped the entire area where he had been destroyed.
As expected... very powerful.
Feels even stronger than Lomar.
Whoosh—
Countless blood particles in the distance were annihilated—
...but Kanzaki Rei’s body reappeared at the opposite end of the island.
He glanced toward the direction where he had been erased...
The "Core" had just splattered over here.
[The Core of All That Is One] was itself part of Kanzaki Rei.
What he could regenerate from wasn’t limited to his main body.
As long as the Core remained—
he was truly immortal.
However...
Even with such direct destruction, the ritual remained intact.
Even the island itself was completely unhard.
It seems Eltima’s preparations were truly thorough.
Kanzaki Rei raised a hand slightly toward the sky.
Ding—
The barrier that had been protecting the entire island suddenly roared to life.
As expected—without stacking his Transcendent Ascension State, the gap between him and Level 8 advanced class users was simply too vast.
But these barriers...
These weren’t ordinary defenses—they were ant to target outsiders.
Which ant—
He could use them...
to have a little fun with his enemies.
