Vile Evil Hides Under The Veil

1698  Accumulated Wealth

'Backstabber! There's a fucking backstabber among us.'

Lilithra came to a dreadful and infuriating conclusion. She came to this conclusion because the assassin who was going on a killing spree into the den was doing it without there being any doubt in his movements.

However, the feeling of fear and panic soon took hold of psyche as she sensed her ally's fate. She had kept tabs on the assassin's actions to some extent with her Spiritual Sense. She wanted to just run away from the scene if she could instead of facing her enemy. Alas, she wasn't given the opportunity to do so. Please visit fr𝐞𝐞w𝒏.𝒸𝑜𝔪 website to read fastest update

It became clear to Lilithra that every form of intel regarding the den, demonic ritual, and the demonic entities involved at the scene had reached this assassin. He then used this intel in a way that allowed him to clear the den all by his lonesome.

'This demonic Ranker… do Rankers like these exist in Labh Salem?'

A question popped into her mind as she prepared herself for the inevitable. She was scared for her life. She felt like pleading and begging the assassin to spare her life. However, the fact that she couldn't speak or see her potential killer robbed her of that choice.

'If I can't beg, then I shall fight,' the demoness clenched her fists and sharpened her Spiritual Sense. In the next moment, as she sensed the attacker approaching, she deployed her set of Skills, one that she had tried and tested many times before.

'Ooh. This one feels feisty. I wonder how many seconds it'll take for me to get rid of her.'

The butcher thought to himself as he approached his last target. He had expended a ridiculous amount of mana in a short time due to the deployment of Skills in conjunction with a Greater Skill. As such, he needed to get rid of the opponent as soon as he could, lest things become complicated for him.

Lilithra, hidden within the shadows, attempted to manipulate Eren's perception with [Skill: Veil of Shadows]. However, Eren's mastery over the shadow element allowed him to see through the illusion.

It was as if someone had rebooted the playback of the Array Disk containing the audiovisual from the start, bringing the spectral screen back to life. Everything came to life all at once– the sounds and the visuals. It was just that there were not many who could experience the normalcy that was restored with their own eyes at this point.

"Haah!"

Eren dropped to the ground, sitting in the middle of a red pool created from his targets' blood. He sat cross-legged and used his arms as a support to recline. He breathed heavily while trying to analyze the mistakes he had made during the raid.

'That Skill-queuing would have been a bitch to tackle if I didn't have the necessary intel on it,' Eren thought as he replayed the scenes of the battle in his head.

This was not his first battle in Labh Salem. However, he still felt like he was back in his academy days in LA– learning new things. Even after continuously battling with the demonically possessed entities for the last five months, he was amazed by the variety of Skills each one possessed.

Anfang had variations in spells as well. However, in Labh Salem, he couldn't even comprehend the number and type of Skills his enemies could possess. As such, he quickly figured out the fact that In Labh Salem intel on one's opponent was one of the most deciding factors in battles.

Only by understanding opponents' Skills could one prepare a better set of Skills to counter them. Of course, he could use and employ better and higher grade Skills and Greater Skills, which could be effective on almost any type of foe he faced.

However, buying such effective Skills in the Menaka's Market required a lot of corpus in terms of Menaka's Runes. So Eren was forced to accumulate Menaka's Runes the hard way, by doing mercenary work for the Ishgaar's temple.

The butcher also had a substantial amount of passive income that he earned through selling his unique Skill to the Mesh. With two streams of income supporting him over the last five months, he had finally accumulated a satisfactory wealth that could allow him to get the Skills he wanted.

[ Menaka's Runes: 147,889 ] The number Eren saw on his Spectral Screen put a smile on his blood-soaked face.

"Kekeke. It indeed feels good to be rich."
