Chapter 602 - 601: Three against one, what are the odds?

Chapter 602: Chapter 601: Three against one, what are the odds?

"Don’t know?" Nekro asked with a grin.

Keith remained silent as he struggled to process what he had just heard.

He was a hybrid?

A mixture of a demon and a human?

But... his parents were humans, weren’t they?

"Witch!"

"Die, witch!"

Suddenly, the voices of his townspeople echoed in his mind as Keith clenched his fists.

Could it really be his mother?

Was his mother a demon?

Was that why she had been burned alive?

Meanwhile, Kiro was stunned. He looked at Keith, then back at Nekro.

"That explains his growth as he killed more and more people."

Ever since they had entered the ancient ruins, Kiro had noticed that Keith seemed to grow stronger whenever he killed people.

But now, after discovering that he was a demon or rather, a hybrid, it all seemed to make sense.

"Tch..."

Suddenly, Keith’s voice rang out.

His eyes glowed crimson.

A red light spread from his eyes across the rest of his body as his body rapidly expanded until he stood three meters tall.

He and Nekro now stood at the same height.

Keith smiled.

"Does it matter? Who gives a fuck who I am?"

"All my life... I’ve never been anyone."

But now...

Keith clenched his fist.

"Thank you for telling me who I am."

"Now die."

Boom!

The instant his punch connected with Nekro, the demon was sent flying out of the basement.

He tore through the roof of the Royal Palace, causing the entire structure to explode and collapse.

"Hehehehehe..."

Keith emerged from the rubble, grinning wildly.

Badum!

"You are just a witch like your mother."

"Bitch."

"No, I am not your friend."

"Fight! Fight! Fight!"

"The devil!"

Fragments of his past memories rushed through his mind as his heart pounded rapidly.

"What is that?"

The entire Ynvashi Kingdom was thrown into panic as they felt a terrifying aura descend upon them.

"You little prick!"

Nekro flew back toward Keith as he threw a punch.

Space converged around his fist as darkness filled the sky.

Keith punched back.

The instant their fists collided, everything went silent for a moment.

Then...

Boom!!!

The entire Mortal Realm trembled.

The ground erupted as enormous tsunamis rose into the sky, while the earth beneath them cracked and split apart.

Nekro’s tail lashed out like a whip.

Keith grabbed it and pulled Nekro toward him.

Nekro twisted his body, sending a knee toward Keith’s face.

Bang!!!

The very sky quivered.

The airflow stopped momentarily as a massive shockwave erupted and crashed into the ground, spreading for thousands of kilometers.

"You are still weaker than me," Nekro said with disgust as he watched Keith fall toward the ground.

Then he moved.

Space seemed to scream as it was violently ripped apart, revealing the Second Layer of Space.

The pure darkness within seemed to swallow the souls of those who gazed into it, leaving them unable to look away.

Nekro grabbed Keith by the head.

Keith’s body was yanked upward before Nekro tore through space, appearing in another region as the two plummeted toward the ground.

Boom!

Nekro smashed Keith’s head into the ground, creating a massive crater more than fifty thousand kilometers wide.

But Nekro wasn’t satisfied.

He grabbed Keith by the head again and dragged him across the ground.

His speed surpassed the speed of light as they arrived at the peak of a massive mountain.

Snow covered the area.

Nekro buried Keith’s head into the sharp edge of the mountain.

Boom!!!

The enormous mountain was torn apart and collapsed.

Nekro floated in the air, staring at the destroyed mountain.

Just then, a voice sounded in his ears.

"It’s getting quite interesting."

Keith emerged from the rubble, completely unharmed.

Nekro’s eyes narrowed as he spoke.

"This is turning out to be a good warm-up."

Keith suddenly headbutted him.

The two appeared in another region, one surrounded by dozens of cities.

Their arrival caused the clouds to disperse.

An intense gravitational force descended upon the people below, crushing them into bloody masses one after another.

Bang!

Bang!

The two clashed, tearing apart the fabric of space.

Time slowed down, then accelerated again as their shockwaves spread across the surroundings.

One city after another disappeared.

But Keith only grew stronger.

He could feel the intense energy filling his body.

He was devouring the blood of the humans who had died around them as they fought.

"Argh... Really?"

Just as the two clashed again, Kiro appeared.

His five-meter-tall body towered over everyone as he grabbed Nekro from behind.

Then his knee slammed forward.

The two collided like stars.

A blinding light filled the area before everything briefly fell silent.

At this point, a massive hole had been torn through Nekro’s body, exposing his spine.

Nekro’s face twisted in agony as he remained suspended in the air.

"You...?"

"Mind if I join?"

Just then, Leon appeared with a smile on his face.

Before Nekro could react, his body was compressed by a tremendous force, reducing him to mangled flesh and bone.

But Nekro quickly regenerated, returning to his original state.

He looked at the three Rank 1 beings standing before him, his teeth clenched.

But shortly after, his expression changed.

He began to laugh.

"Interesting. Really..."

Nekro looked at them with a smile.

"But even three of you aren’t enough."

"There has always been a deciding factor between Rank 1 beings."

"Elements..."

"You bunch seem to have grasped one or two."

"But can they compare to mine?"

"Welcome to my realm."

The instant Nekro finished speaking, the already-destroyed sky began to twist.

A purple color invaded it.

The entire Mortal Realm suddenly felt suffocated as countless people turned toward a single direction.

Nekro.

Something deep within their souls told them to worship that being.

"Heh..."

Keith was the first to react.

He grinned and threw a punch.

But before his fist could even reach Nekro, his flesh and bones were instantly ripped apart.

His entire arm turned into a mist of flesh and blood.

"Huh?"

Leon and Kiro were stunned.

What the hell was this?

"Come."

Nekro grinned.

"You two give it a try as well."
