Arcana Mob

"Cough!...cough! S-sir, please help me!"

Coughing and stumbling on the ground, the man walked towards Cade.

Looking at the man who seemed to be in distress, Cade immediately took a few steps back as he summoned his Arcane card.

" S-sir.."

" You know you are not going to trick me, okay?"

"Kh-you know that it's not fun to play with you kid.. You must be a loner in class."

The man, who heard Cade's response, immediately stopped to play pretend.

After all, there was no fun in pretending if Cade was like this.

"ku ku ku"

Trembling, the man smiled deepened as he started laughing.

" But how careless of me to be discovered like this.... Well.. it can't be blamed, though. I just couldn't contain my excitement."

Standing up, the man exaggeratively said.

Until now, the man looked perfectly like a normal human. He was just like every other researcher, except he emitted that gloomy aura that somehow made Cade nauseous.

Yet, Cade couldn't let his guard down.

It was because he knew in the later state of the game, one of the major enemies was a human-monster hybrid.

-Voom!

Summoning Spectre Dullahan, Cade immediately told Spectre Dullahan to rush at the man.

"oh my, aren't we a little too hasty?"

Raising his hands, the man pretended like he was about to surrender.

But when Spectre Dullahan's sword was about to hit the man, something happened.

Two gruesome hands that looked like it was Ogre's hands appeared from the man's back and blocked Spectre Dullahan's attack.

"Bang!" Spectre's Dullahan sword ferociously hacked downwards and smashed at the two ferocious ogre hands.

Instantly, Cade's expression changed. He realized through the connected sense with Spectre Dullahan that the ogre hand's strength was no joke. A strong reverse force strangely shot upwards. Finally, it threw the unprepared Spectre Dullahan backward.

Watching Cade's face turn pale as Spectre Dullahan was launched like a ball, the man once again laughed coldly.

He waved his hand and began to rush at Spectre Dullahan. He howled as he explosively shot toward Spectre Dullahan from all directions.

' Damn it… Spectre Dullahan, Sword Strike!'

After dragging its feet on the ground for some distance, Spectre Dullahan finally regained its balance but only to see the man was coming at him and ready to pulverize him to the ground.

It quickly followed Cade's command as the sword in its hand glowed. The blazing sword in his hand then quickly increased its momentum as it angrily shot toward the man.

There was even a faint blue arc that appeared on its surface and left an afterimage line behind it.

Yet, the man was calm at this time.

Seeing the sword strike explosively, shooting at him, the man's eyebrows twitched with surprise. He was certainly amazed by Cade's ability to remain calm in this kind of situation.

However, surprises remained only surprises.

The man did not show any mercy when he attacked.

The blazing sword that stabbed downwards seemed to have clashed against something, emitting a clear sound. At the same time, Cade could see half of the sword was broken and flew until it hit the nearby wall.

Spectre Dullahan itself was not in a better condition.

While blocking the sword, the impact of the pinch was transmitted to Spectre Dullahan, and now it was kneeling on the ground, trying its best to move.

This revelation caused Cade's heart to sink. He thought that he could at least stall for time, but it seemed that he was still far from that.

The man smirked as he walked in Cade's direction.

-Woosh! -Woosh! -Woosh!

As soon as the man took a step in his direction, Cade quickly made another plan.

Spectre Dullahan could not move, but it didn't mean it could not use any skill.

Utilizing Spectre Dullahan's new skill, it summoned an army of phantoms that controlled surrounding things and threw them in the direction of the man.

He only wanted one thing, and that was to wait for Isabel to arrive.

But would it really be that easy?

-Thump! -Thump! -Thump!

"Not bad, but do you really think you could defeat me like this?"

The man's smirk grew even wider.

Just now, he had somehow gauged Cade's strength, and it was one that he could easily toy around with.

"...It's not too bad, but you are way too weak…"

Looking at Cade, who was on the floor panting heavily as he tried to resist the effect of the drugs, The man had a delighted smile on his face.

The more he tried to resist, the more the drug would get into his body and paralyze him.

"Although you are not bad, at the very end, you are still at rank (III). My current strength may have been greatly limited, but it is not difficult for me to finish you off." The man said blandly, "Now.. it's time to enjoy myself as I will torture you slowly. Let's just hope that no reinforcement would come so soon."

Eyeing the man, which, as time passed, was closer and closer to him, Cade's face grew bitter.

To be honest, this was a very big lesson for him. He was way too naive, thinking that because he knew the future direction, he could easily change it.

But it was not like Cade was not prepared.

"Grigory, it seems that you have to act. It is just like, as you say, the current me is still way too weak."

"Hyahahahahah, it is indeed not difficult. After all, I am the Great Lord Grigory. Finishing someone like him was a piece of easy cake for me." Grigory's voice sounded in Cade's heart.

But it was a bit too fast to be happy as Grigory was not finished yet.

" However, I'm not here for charity. I have helped you so much these past days, but you have never returned anything back to me."

Cade smiled bitterly and nodded. It was not like he have any other choices, and from the beginning, he knew that Grigory only decided to stay with him because of his own him.

" Hyahahahaha, that's a deal then. But no worries, I haven't think what to get from you yet. As of now, just leave it to me, I will temporarily control your body."

As the deal was made, Cade first nodded his head before he shrugged his shoulders at the man. In an abrupt manner, he gradually closed his eyes.

Seeing Cade's strange action, the man felt a little stunned. He frowned, and a moment later, his expression suddenly changed.

At first, he thought Cade had finally given up, but it didn't seem to be the case as He noticed a ferocious force that was not inferior to his own suddenly explode from the young man's body in midair.
