Child of Destiny

”The same number of undead, no projectile spells to support them, and no high-leveled undead. Is it a trap that he purposely set up to lure me in or he actually has a lot of restrictions after losing his Awakening Skills?”

Shin was currently analyzing the information that he got so far when some of the undead broke free from the formation and started rushing at him in a very aggressive manner.

Shin immediately stopped his thoughts when he saw that before knitting his eyebrows. From what he could see, this group of undead who were currently charging at him seemed to be different compared to the others.

The undead monsters that he was fighting earlier at least had a battle capability of a player who possessed an above-average skill.

But based on the movements of these particular undead monsters charging at him, Shin could feel that they were at least as strong as an expert with decent strength.

”Monsters with high AI or are they being controlled manually?” muttered Shin as he used his ʼSensing Circle to predict their movements.

There were a total of 5 undead with strange movements. One of them jumped in the air to prevent him from escaping in the air while the other four were coming at him from four different locations. And based on the timing and the way how they moved, their synchronized attack seemed to be perfectly tailored to trap him.

He was about to make his move when he suddenly felt a vibration coming from the ground beneath his feet.

Sensing that, Shinʼs head started working and analyzed everything in an instant. Before moving his body based on his instincts.

First, he jumped in the air to avoid getting caught by the pair of hands that tried to grab his ankles. And while he was in the air, he suddenly turned his body around and did a quick spin midair to dodge the incoming thrust from behind before slightly pushing that undead on its back while it was coming through below him.

Due to that, the undead suddenly lost its control over its charge and collided with the other undead coming in front of it. And since they were thrusting their swords forward, they also stabbed each other before the moment of their collision.

At the same time, Shin also used the momentum that he gained from the previous push to do another spin in the midair before throwing a powerful kick at the undead who was coming from his left.

Crack!

A loud sound of something being broken could be heard when the heel of Shinʼs food hit the heck of the incoming undead before it was sent flying due to the powerful force accompanying that kick.

Swoosh!

Alongside those moments, his right arm was also doing some work with the sword that he was holding.

He used the momentum of his spin to swing the [Yamato] at the undead who was coming from the opposite direction of the previous undead. And before that undead could even reach its target, a quick slash chopped its head off its shoulders which killed it in the process.

After that, Shin twisted his waist in the air to force another spin up in the air before forcing his body to land back on the ground while thrusting the now blazing [Yamato] at the undead who tried to grab ankles earlier.

And quickly after stabbing his blazing sword at the head of that undead, Shin simultaneously released all of the accumulated white flames from his sword and made it burst out on the ground.

ʼSelf-Created Skill (Personal): Solaris Pillarʼ

Since four of the undead monsters rushed at him earlier, the perfect formation that they have previously was now broken. So, Immortal adjusted the positions of the other undead monsters to compensate for the gaps that they left behind.

And when he realized that Shin was able to fend off the synchronized attack that he set up, Immortal quickly controlled a few more undead as a follow-up attack for his previous move.

But when he saw the blazing white flame on Shinʼs sword, Immortal immediately waved his hand and ordered all of his undead monsters to move away from Shin – it was because he clearly remembered one of Shinʼs signature moves while he was cornered in the air but quite close to the ground.

But the order was quite late.

Boom!

A pillar of white flame suddenly rose up from the ground and engulfed all of the undead who were trying to get near Shin including the undead that was coming after him in the air from the previous synchronized attack.
