The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order Chapter 7

Chapter 7: Absolute Life Form System

Cain dodged those punches while taking advantage of any opening to deliver precise strikes that gradually weakened Kiron’s onslaught.

Although it seemed that Cain had the upper hand, nothing could be farther from the truth. His attacks did not really harm Kiron, and the moment one of those punches coated in sky-blue aura landed, it would be game over.

Cain and Kiron fought for more than five minutes, reaching their limit. The first had landed more than one hundred strikes while the other none, but neither showed visible injuries. That should be enough to tell you how mighty a Level 1 Wave Warrior was.

Finally, Kiron’s Wave Cloak began to fluctuate and show signs of instability, meaning that his Essence Wave was about to dry out.

Cain’s eyes narrowed, and when he ducked to the ground to dodge a fist, he took the opportunity to grab something.

Kiron knew he had little Essence Wave left, so he lunged toward Cain with arms wide open like an enraged animal.

Such an attack had a wide range and made it almost impossible for Cain to dodge it, but it also left Kiron totally exposed, which the first did not hesitate to take full advantage of.

.....

Cain punched toward Kiron’s right eye, and hidden between his fingers was a sharp rock.

If the Wave Cloak was at full potency, the rock might have difficulty piercing the tissue, but it buried itself very deep due to Kiron’s exhaustion.

“AHHHHHH!” Kiron screamed due to the horrible pain, but his body still carried on with immense momentum, striking Cain right in the chest.

Cain felt as if a car had just run over him. That crash sent him flying away while puking blood.

“Ahhh, my eye!” Kiron continued screaming as his sight stained with red. He finally reached his limit, and his Wave Cloak vanished, making him feel he would pa.s.s out at any second.

Still, Kiron’s rage allowed him to remain awake. He stared at Cain, who lay on the ground with his eyes closed, most likely unconscious due to the internal damage.

“I will kill you!” Kiron roared as he threw himself toward Cain, with both hands aiming toward this one’s neck.

Just as Kiron was about to choke him, Cain opened his eyes, raised his wais, and wrapped his legs around his enemy’s neck.

Before Kiron could get past his shock, Cain grabbed one of his arms and twisted it until it broke.

“Ahhh,” Kiron screamed again, but it lacked strength due to the pressure on his neck. The exhaustion and pain, plus the disruption of his blood flow due to Cain’s legs, made him pa.s.s out in seconds.

Cain unlocked the triangle choke only after seeing that Kiron’s turned blue due to the lack of oxygen. Just breathing was painful, and blood filled his mouth due to the severe internal trauma he had endured.

Despite all that, a smile emerged on Cain’s face as he realized what he had just achieved. He defeated a Level 1 Wave Warrior!

After almost half an hour, Cain finally gathered the strength to stand up, using the help of a nearby tree. He went through Kiron’s clothes and grabbed the small metallic sphere jamming his A.I. Chip signal.

Cain was about to turn off the metallic sphere so he could call the authorities when he froze.

‘I call them. The authorities will take out our testimonies, but what then?’

Cain slowly came to a realization. He could denounce Kiron’s attack, but it would be his words against the word of a Wave Warrior.

There was no one to back him up, and Kiron suffered even more severe wounds than him, with the right eye of this one gone.

Of course, if one were to make an effort to a.n.a.lyze the circ.u.mstances around the battle, it would not be hard to see who the initial attacker was, but why would the authorities do that.

Who would side with Cain, an orphan with no background and zero talent, against a Level 1 Wave Warrior?

As for the truth? Cain was not a child and knew that the truth meant nothing without the power to back it.

Things could go on an even more dangerous path, with the authorities taking Kiron as the victim and prosecuting him.

“Ugg.”

Cain trembled as he heard Kiron’s groan. Time was running out, and he needed to make a decision.

Deep down, Cain knew the path he needed to take, but his sense of morality pushed him back.

As he questioned whether or not to do it, he remembered the first line of the Soldier Military Manual. It was then that he stopped trembling, and all his doubts vanished.

‘To be kind to your enemy is to be cruel to yourself.’

Kiron regained consciousness, and the first thing he saw was a kick coming to his face. It pushed the rock in his eye deeper into his head, all the way to his brain.

The youth trembled for a few seconds before his brain stopped working, and he perished.

Cain began to breathe faster and faster as he saw the dead body lying at his feet. However, he heard a voice in his mind before he could process all of that.

[Congratulations, human! You have fulfilled the conditions and are worthy of becoming the Vessel of the Absolute Life Form System.]

Cain was shocked by the new voice in his head. It was similar to the A.I. Chip robotic voice, but something told him this was unique.

Unfortunately, a horrible pain a.s.saulted him before he could ask any question as he felt his A.I. Chip melting and fusing with something deep inside his mind.

The pain was so immense that he fell to the ground and pa.s.sed out.
