“Blink, and you’ll lose.” Scarlett took half a step forward and slashed the sword diagonally. “Storm Slash!”It happened so fast, and an invisible slash came flying at Jim much faster than sound itself.Jim’s instincts screamed him to move out of its way, and he immediately jumped to his right. The buildings behind him were all sliced in half for well over a hundred meters and killed some people in the process.Scarlett slashed her sword horizontally this time, and the slash went right after Jim’s throat. He managed to duck in time. The buildings that were sliced in half were not sliced horizontally again, making them fly and briefly float in air. Over a dozen houses in the vicinity were flying in the air, and it was a terrifying sight for all those that were watching.When these structures came crashing down, more people got stuck under the rubble. And some of them would lose their lives due to lack of oxygen.As chaos ensued in the streets, Jim and Scarlett continued to fight. Jim s
Jim landed on the ground after sending Scarlett flying. He skidded into a halt and was sucking a deep breath. Just then, he felt a faint disturbance in his energy from behind, which meant that someone was on his back.“Silent Spear!”An electric spear pierced through Jim’s heart from behind and came from the front.“Ngh,” Jim gritted his teeth, but the power that coursed through his chest was too much for him to take. He ended up coughing blood.While the pure electric spear was still running through his chest, Big Fool laughed and jumped at him. “Mountain Fist!” He struck Jim’s head on the side and sent him flying into the distance for hundreds of meters. “Hahaha! Did you see that, Lord Electric Assassin? I killed him with that blow.”“Go and make sure that he’s dead,” Electric Assassin told him before he rushed over to Scarlett and checked on her condition.Her jaw was broken. She lost a few teeth, but she was still conscious. He lifted her off the ground and lay her back in his lap
After defeating Big Fool, Jim looked for Scarlett Storm, and especially Electric Assassin because the spear that he had pierced through Jim’s heart did not leave his mind yet.He really wanted to fight and beat Electric Assassin. However, he could not find both those villains.Doug told him that they left the street, so there was nothing he could do about them as their streets were not nearby.Doug said Jim should eat at a restaurant before going to another street. “If you don’t eat anything, you’re going to lose your strength, Boss.”“I know that, but how can you guarantee that human meat isn’t mixed in these restaurants?” Jim asked.“That’s…” Doug didn’t know how to answer. He didn’t eat human meat himself after coming to the second floor because he was too weak for that.Human meat on the second floor was a luxury. For a poor and weak survivor like Doug, he would be able to afford monster meat or at best dog meat.Monster meat was the cheapest because of the availability of the mons
Jim put on DC glasses as he exited Silly Street and entered Bastard Street, which was known for its male prostitution.There were males outside in the streets dressed up as females and approached Jim and Ronny and asked them to come into their homes. Some of them would easily pass for women in terms of appearance, so Ronny was tempted by them.However, after Doug told them that this particular street was only for males, Ronny did not let any of these posers touch him.“Stay away from me!” he howled at them, but they still tried to grab his hand, touching his shoulder, chest, or at other places, trying to get him into the mood. One of them even pinched his waist, making him angry. He glared at that man. “Do you want to die?”More than a dozen crossdressers approached Ronny, but ten times more of them approached Jim and praised his looks and tried to lift his shirt to see his muscles, but to their shock, they couldn’t touch him because he covered himself with vivre. It was like a shield
Because Jim put on DC glasses, he was able to see things he couldn’t see before. The auras were different for some people compared to others.For instance, Doug and Ronny were giving different auras. A bull demon was residing in Doug, so his aura was more sharp, thorny. However, Ronny’s aura was softer and was like a flame. Jim's own aura was also flame-like, but it was much more gentle compared to Ronny, suggesting that he was much healthier than Ronny.Nevertheless, Jim knew that he was in a far from perfect condition because he still had nanobodies in him, which he still wasn’t able to deal with using his vivre. Right now, he had no way of stopping them. Though Joe assured him that he wouldn’t let the nanobots harm him, Jim could no longer take Joe’s words for granted.As Jim walked in the front, the cross-dressers still tried to touch him. They were desperate to touch him and get his attention. He didn’t want to waste his energy on them, so he just used enough vivre so they wouldn
“I don’t even know what the word ‘regret’ means,” Balaam said and looked at others. His eyes reverted back to normal. “Do any of you know the meaning?”“No, Lord Balaam,” they replied and snickered. “Maybe it’s a type of dish?”“Haha, maybe he’s talking about giving himself to me as a dish,” Balaam said, licking his lips.Jim closed his eyes and focused on his energy. He remembered the practice he did in the training grounds in Flower Street.His aura became so sensitive, he was able to track the location of the snipers with the help of the lasers itself. There were a total of eight snipers.“Omni Burst,” Jim uttered.A faint breeze blew past everyone in the vicinity.“Did he say something just now?” one of the cross-dressers said.“Maybe he said he regrets coming to this street.”“Hahaha.”As they laughed, the lasers were no longer highlighting on the bodies of Jim, Ronny, and Doug. Balaam and others looked up at the rooftops, only to see the snipers with holes in their foreheads. Al
Balaam thought he landed a critical hit by striking Jim’s head; however, he soon realized that his forehead never struck Jim. It was stopped and repelled by the pressure put by the vivre defense of Jim.Jim’s right elbow had come out of the skin, and it hurt him beyond description, but in the heat of the battle, he was able to put the pain aside and strike Balaam’s liver with his left fist. “Bone Breaking Fist!”Blood gushed out of Balaam’s nose against his will, for it was such a powerful strike. Not only did Balaam’s ribs crack, his liver also ruptured. His sight turned blurry for a moment.Nevertheless, Balaam randomly launched punches, hoping to hit Jim at least a few times. Jim deflected all of Balaam’s punches with his left hand alone.Ushi was the one that was fighting Jim through Balaam. He didn’t like the vivre that surrounded Jim and protected him from all types of attacks. He suddenly opened his mouth and let out gray mist that touched Jim’s vivre and melted it away, startl
Jim focused all his energy into his gut, and the seal began to melt away pretty quickly.“Good try, but it’s too late for that,” Ushi slashed his sword vertically. The slash teleported and struck Jim from the front.Ushi thought he got Jim, but what his attack slashed through turned out to be Jim’s afterimage.“Heavenly Step,” Jim suddenly appeared elsewhere and kept turning into a blur. Ushi slashed again and again, but his sword only hit the afterimages.Before Ushi knew it, Jim appeared on his back and thrust his palm, “Heavenly Fist!”A mighty punch to the back of Balaam put a massive hole in Balaam’s chest. Balaam was clearly weakened by that attack, but he was still on his feet. He turned around and tried to slash at Jim.Jim grabbed his hand before he could bring it down. Balaam’s size was also shrinking back to normal, suggesting that the demons were leaving his body.Jim caught Balaam by the throat and lifted him up. Balaam’s eyes still showed split pupils. “I told you… you’d
