Chapter 782: Going Back
Rael slid across the ground and then kicked off, arriving in front of Nyx. In the next instant, he sank half of his body into the Mirror Realm, and the other half remained in the normal world.
Nyx matched his energy and did the same. Yet when the two of them struck each other, both of them bounced back. That was because in the split second that the two of them were in the Mirror Realm, they tried to deceive one another.
And when Rael caught onto what she was doing, he managed not only to negate her attack, but also to strike her across the face and send her flying into the distance.
After a couple hundred years of doing this, Rael realized something.
Fighting in the Mirror Realm wasnât much about technique, but rather, timing.
If he timed it right, and deceived his opponent, he could strike them. Obviously, seeing the future was a bit of an annoyance, but Rael realized that if he expelled his mana forward and imitated his body and movement, he could trick future sight.
Considering it was a possibility that he would actually move there, the future sight basically filtered it as actual movement, and thus showed the outcome of him moving forward, while ignoring what was actually happening.
Of course, it was much easier said than done, and it took Rael nearly 10 years of getting his ass whooped to eventually get it down. And now, several hundred years later, he was sure he managed to master deception.
Itâs a bit annoying how everyone used to do this to me before, and I thought they were some geniuses. It was really just that simple,
Rael thought with a sigh.
âAnyways, are you sure you donât want to go back yet?â
Nyx wiped the blood off her lips and smirked.
âIt might be time. You seem plenty ready. But did you have to aim for my beautiful face?â
âJust like how youâve aimed for my balls for the last couple of years? You know, if I canât have kids because of you, Iâm going to hold you accountable,â Rael retorted.
Nyx let out a giggle.
âDonât worry, your balls are fine. I made sure of that myself while you were sleeping.â
ââŚYou damn pervert.â
âHehe. Yeah. Iâm just kidding. Since you donât have organs, your balls should be the least of your worries.â Nyx quickly tied her hair in a bun and added:
âRather, youâve gotten pretty strong now. Iâm sure if you ever fight someone in the Mirror Realm, you wouldnât be a helpless little chick like the first time we fought.â
A proud look appeared on Raelâs face. Though he still wasnât sure how to feel about Nyx. She was a big straightforward pervert, and the longer he spent with her, the more he realized she was just a bored woman.
So bored, in fact, that when he opened the Premium Shop and brought up comics, she went ahead and ordered 10 erotic mangas to read. Coincidentally, she finished all 10 of them in a day.
She didnât even seem like the horny type. If anything, she just sat there on her own bed and laughed at what the people in the mangas were doing. She even playfully imitated some poses while the two of them were sparring, and honestlyâŚ
Rael was a little scared what would happen if he actually fell asleep.
âDid you grow at all power-wise?â Nyx asked. âLike, did your stats increase?â
âNo. My money did though.â
He had quite a bit of money now.
â˘âBalance: 102,952,455,104 Premium Coinsââ˘
He could increase his stats by so much. Though, Rael held off on that for the time being and instead glanced over at Nyx.
Then, with the snap of his fingers, he shattered the time barrier.
At first, time seemed to move slowly, but as the hundreds of years he spent inside finally caught up to the outside, time resumed to normal.
And, aside from the tummy ache, he was all good.
Though⌠How did I even get a tummy ache?
Rael sighed.
Doesnât matter. I got a golden toilet for a reason.
âWow⌠I really do feel like shit,â Nyx said, rubbing her brows. âIt looks like the Mirror Realm and frozen time donât mesh well. If you donât mind, Iâm going to go use your toilet.â
ââŚSuit yourself.â
Before he could say another word, Nyx vanished out of sight.
And so, while she was gone, doing her own business, Rael decided to go back to the throne room and relax for a bit.
He had been relaxing for quite a while now, and he knew it was only a matter of time before someone came over and ruined everything.
But until then, Rael wanted to enjoy this peace.
He confidently walked through the hallways of the palace, and finally, he reached the throne room and stepped inside.
And just like Vatyra said, Rael immediately saw Anastasia. She was resting on the throne, and when she spotted him, her brows furrowed.
âDid you come to take my place?â
âWell⌠I thought of doing some paperwork, but since youâre here, maybe I shouldnât?â
ââŚâ
It felt like all the light had drained from her eyes. Though, Rael was a little confused. Wasnât she someone who had previously ruled over a much larger territory? Why was she finding something like this difficult?
But when Rael looked closer, he realized that her emotions were stable, and all she was feeling was boredom. Clearly, she was trying to weasel her way out of this position.
âYou know, Anastasia, Iâm surprised you actually came here with me.â
She tilted her head slightly.
âWhatâs this about?â
Since she wanted him to get straight to the point, that was what he did.
âIâm not actually the Supreme Beast. Or at least, thatâs what everyoneâs been saying lately. If anything, I might be some kind of avatar, or someone whoâs really just inheriting his legacy. By that, I mean that your revenge against me, and the fight I promised, are irrelevant.â
Hearing that, Anastasia just sat there in silence for a few moments, until she slowly stood up, approached him, and stared straight into his eyes.
âWho decided that?â
