Like a sun burning up one, and the other, like the ice age, his eyes are getting tired of the strain.
And now, a pair of cold, murderous eyes are looking at him.
"Are you sure you didn't summon anything?"
The voice of Ichor were like steel being grinded against each other. With this pain, his senses were being muddled.
Feeling this, Zypher has no choice but to close his eyes, the All-Father, and what he saw surprised him.
Earlier, when he got both of the eyes, he saw the skeletons of the players, and their summons, but now, Ichor is not Ichor.
"I didn't--"
"Don't lie to me."
He said with anger in his voice.
"I swear I didn't--"
BANG!
A sudden attack appeared from the other side of the corridor.
Without a single thought of hesitation, "Ichor" stood in between the attack and Zypher.
"Shadow Shield!"
BOOM!
The collision of forces happened, and a sudden explosion flung Zypher's body away from the fight.
Using the momentum, Zypher took the chance to run down the stairs at the other end of the corridor.
He plopped down a few times before beginning to roll and using it to headstart his run.
"Not so fast."
"Ichor" said as he casted a small shadow wall, but Zypher dodged it.
Then, another attack was sent, only for "Ichor" to block it
Seeing the exchange, he knows that "Ichor" is just trying to capture him alive, while the other one on the other side of the corridor is an enemy.
"Ichor" is protecting him from the assailant, while also not letting him go.
But, he won't let him do what he wants. He has to choose: protecting him, or capturing him.
And if he captures him, it is only if he is dead.
So, Zypher maneuvered a few more times before arriving at the other end of the corridor.
Suddenly, a booming sound appeared out of nowhere.
"WHO DARES MESS WITH MY SCHOOL!"
The sound was so loud that it shattered the windows of the building.
Zypher, hearing the noise, in addition to his exhausted sense of sight, was overwhelmed with the sense, and was overstimulated.
"Transcend!"
Out of pain, he cried out.
Suddenly, his platinum hair began shining with a bright gray hue.
His skin became fairer, and his clothes changed.
From his shabby appearance, he now has a set of clothes: a long white overcoat, gloves, and even a pair of new black boots.
Sensing the power, the principal locked in on him, but he suddenly disappeared without a trace.
His whole body was just there, and then suddenly, it was none.
It surprised the principal even more when he couldn't even detect the one that vanished inside his domain.
It is widely known that Preliminary Schools have Level 99 powerhouses in them, and they can detect up to 100 Km of their vicinity.
And Ruintown isn't that even large for his detection that he reached nothing in his search.
So, it's either he is outside the range, or he failed to lock down the man.
He smiled as he mumbled.
"Interesting."
He then looked at the two people who were pinned on the ground.
"Hooo? Two geniuses?"
Walking down the staircases, the pressure is still pushing the two down the floor.
"It's still a question in my mind how the hell two people has the same summon, but is fighting instead of being together."
FWOOSH!
Suddenly, both person used their summon, the shadow, to hide in it, to escape the pressure they were feeling.
"Not so fast."
Light appeared like a hand and grabbed the two.
"Shall we?"
He said as he laughed his way up to the top of the the Preliminary School.
___________________________
Panting, Zypher was able to vanish within a few seconds.
But, that few seconds was the beginning of his hell.
First, his eyes were shut down.
The All-Father and Unknown One suddenly shut down after he used Transcend.
This made him lose the power of the eyes, and his vision is now normal, but he is left with two not functional summons.
Alrhough they were a bit overpowered, but having a sword as a baby is a danger in itself.
He can reactivate the summon right now, but he knows what happens if he did, and he will just be a normal human.
Second, is the Qi Pill.
Transcend, is like an all immunity for his body: it pushes the past-life account to him so he can access his skills from the past, and it saves him from a lot.
But that saving function activated with the pill.
With two medicines in the body, they will fight for whoever is bigger and stronger: and the Transcend won.
Only to find out that the Qi Pill is suppressing more
Although Transcend is stronger than the Frozen Seal, a seal is still a seal.
And so, the effectiveness of Transcend is lowered by 60 percent.
So, the original countdown of twenty seconds is now only eight.
Plus, fighting the Qi Pill, which was for almost 22 more hours, consumed 2 seconds.
And the final countdown for the Transcension is just over five seconds.
And third...
Was the innocent laughter that he is hearing since he went out of the Preliminary School.
"How cool was that? Do it again!"
The voice said, clearly interested on what Zypher was gonna do.
"Oh, I was cool? Maybe you should let me go if I am."
"No can do, Sir. Didn't we have a good connection?"
"Connection my ass! That doesn't even count."
"How harsh, my young heart is broken."
"You're not young, Auntie."
Saying this, the girl stopped laughing.
"Oops."
Zypher said as he desperately ran. His destination: Lun' Ara.
"I AM JUST 27!"
The girl said, and ger summon was awakened.
Zypher laughed as he ran forwards.
Like, how the hell can he process this?
His seal, was there again, and the backlash of Qi Pill and the backlash of Transcend was stacked upon each other, a poison dart is lodged at his neck, and he is running away from a bear that looked so innocent.
Fun, right?
