Single Wish: Rise Of The Omniscient Paragon

459  458: I'll Restrain, You'll Kill

"Hahahahahahaha!!!"

Gunnarr's laughter resounded in the ears of Corey, Pamela, and Selene, causing each of them to frown.

Pamela's frown was the deepest, and a baffled expression could also be seen on her face.

After Corey came to terms with the fact that he had jinxed everything and made it worse for them, he glanced at Pamela and noticed her expression.

"What's wrong?"

Pamela glanced at him before shifting her gaze towards Gunnarr who had a smile of mockery on her lips.

"From the moment he appeared before you, I already knew that he was planning on something and was communicating with somebody, and I tried to stop it. No, I didn't try to stop it, I stopped it."

Pamela furrowed her brows deeper.

"That was one of the reasons I decided to attack him because I knew that he was up to no good. I stopped the communication, and since I no longer sensed anything from him, I thought he had stopped and we were safe… Surprisingly, I was wrong."

Corey raised his brows when he heard this, and he glanced at Gunnarr who now had a calm expression.

'Is that why he had been looking at her even when he was speaking?' Corey thought.

"How did you do it?"

Pamela asked, and Gunnarr tilted his head to the side.

"It's so simple actually… Out of precaution, I told the family head what I had seen before coming here. I and the family head saw no reason for me to do such a thing since you were just a Tier 2 and a Tier 4, but I just felt like I had to do it."

"Luckily I did."

Gunnarr smiled with visible mockery on his face, and Pamela's left eye twitched.

"So what are we going to do now?"

Selene asked with a calm expression. Although a part of her told her that she was meant to be worried and anxious, Corey's presence calmed her a lot.

She knew just how powerful, ingenious, and lucky Corey was. So to her, as long as Corey was not anxious, then the situation was not without hope.

However, she suddenly recalled what she had seen and she frowned slightly. She glanced at Corey and was about to speak, but her eyes widened slightly when she saw that Corey's eyes had become purely white.

'What?'

"You said 'The family head'?... You're not the family head of the Anacletus clan?"

The smile on Gunnarr's smile increased when he heard Corey's words, and then he laughed in a creepy manner.

"Hehehehehehe… You truly are something else, you notice what other people don't notice."

Corey frowned in disgust at the extremely creepy laugh.

"Of course, I'm not the family head, do you think the Anacletus clan which is one of the top three clans of Stormhold City would have a leader that's just a Dreadkeeper? Did you read in a book or did the local citizens of Gravenstone City tell you that the leaders of the top three clans in Stormhold City are Dreadkeepers?"

"Foolish! Of course not!"

"Our family head is an Ascendant! The family heads of the top three clans are Ascendants! We made the public think that the family heads of the top three clans are Dreadkeepers to fool them, you fools!"

"Hahahahahahahaha! I was thinking of striking a deal with you before, but you dare make me fall on my knees? You dare make me kneel?"

"You dare make me, Reaper of a Thousand and The Behemoth Slayer fall to his knees?!"

"You will perish and suffer for eternity by my hands!"

Gunnarr's expression was one of immense anger and madness as he spoke with a growl. His aura flared to life, his ponytail swayed intensely, the rune tattoos on his body glowed with a dark silver light, black lightning appeared around him, and with every movement of the lightning bolts around him, loud thunderclaps could be heard, and the ground beneath him charred and cracked.

Corey and Pamela frowned, but their expressions were as calm as a lake. They didn't take a step back, and the distance between the duo and Gunnarr was less than a meter.

Surrounding Corey were hundreds of invisible hexagon barriers that were getting destroyed by the second. Normally, Corey's hexagon barriers should not have lasted so long before Gunnarr's unrestrained aura.

However, imbued inside Corey's hexagon barriers was not only the mana of two infinity crystals, but the presence of mystic force also helped strengthen Corey's hexagon barriers by a large degree.

Pamela was able to sense the mystic force surrounding Corey, and she furrowed her brows in surprise.

'He has Mystic Force as a Tier 2? Is that possible? I got mine when I was a Tier 3.'

Although Pamela was slightly taken aback by the fact that Corey had mystic force as a tier 2 and Gunnarr's aura that was stronger than she expected, her expression was one of pure indifference.

She merely used her mana to disperse Gunnarr's aura, and she did so with little to no effort.

Meanwhile, Selene had instinctively taken a step back after Gunnarr released his aura, and though she had a slightly worried expression, she was mostly calm.

She glanced at Corey and then shifted her gaze to Pamela before releasing an internal sigh.

'Monsters.'

She thought, and then she glanced at Corey.

"So, what are we going to do now?"

Corey chuckled, and then he rotated his right arm before holding his massive axe with it.

"Isn't it obvious… We kill him."

Selene nodded slightly, 'I expected such.'

Just as Selene had this thought, a loud laugh resounded in her ears.

"You want to kill me? I admit that you're a very powerful tier 2, but you're way out of your league kid…" Gunnarr snarled, and then he glanced at Pamela, "... I only have business with her."

Corey raised his brows, "Is that so?"

He glanced at Pamela with his brows still raised, and Pamela shrugged indifferently, "We don't have time. I'll restrain him, and you'll finish him off."

Corey raised his brows the more, 'Why don't you just blatantly say you just want to see how I'll kill him?'

Corey thought, and then he shrugged nonchalantly, "Just make sure to restrain him properly." n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Pamela smiled, but the instant she smiled, her face changed and a voice resounded in her ears.

"Who gave you the guts to treat me like an ant?"
