Although he only fought for less thaimes, Aleph’s spatial awareness was developed to the level. It was as if he ho in the midst of a war where everything could potentially kill him in one go.

  The first thing that he did was to mark the most dangerous ones around him.

  “One… no, another special undead. How e they are together?”

  Aleph briefly g the two ‘elite-grade undeads’. One of them was a bck haired girl wielding a huge scythe. The other one wielded a dark-blue bow.

  “Two lives.” He muttered. “What a cruel world.”

  The scythe-wielding undead was the first oo charge at him. She held the tip of her scythe downwards. It wasn’t just the honkai ons that these undeads received; they also learned how to properly utilize their ons. In the case of a scythe, targeting the calves was its most appropriate move.

  ‘Legs.’

  Aleph immediately caught onto her move. The greatsword in his hands weighed around fifteen kilograms, something far beyond normal greatswords. Lifting such a weight with one hand would be troubling for most people, but it wasn’t the case for Aleph.

  Under his sleeves, purple lines began glowing. It has always been in an active state whenever he lifted the greatsword. Thus, it didn’t weigh siderably for him.

  In a strange manner, Aleph swung the greatsword upwards. Despite the strain in his arm, he tinued his pn.

  Using the momentum built by the greatsword, he jumped.

  Swoosh-!

  The threatening bde of the scythe swept past the ground just as he did so. The undead looked at him in surprise.

  The moment, all she was the desding greatsword that he swung once more. She tried to block it using the scythe’s handle, but to no avail.

  Crack-!

  Bam-!

  The greatsword went through it before directly cutting off her head and right arm.

  Thud-!

  “One hundred ay two…”

  Aleph did not dilly-dally during his month withihird institute. Aside from his exploration of the [Ratio] cursed teique, he also made efforts to explore the substance of the ‘cursed energy’ as well.

  In short, it didn’t only enhance his base strength. It could also be used to temporarily enhance a part of his body, resulting in a short burst of power. Him hag down the undead was the result of imbuing more than half of his cursed energy into his arm.

  What’s more iing was it being affected by emotions. It would fluctuate when he experienced overwhelmiions—to be more specifiegative emotions.

  Aleph could vaguely feel that he was still missing a lot when it es to this reward of his.

  Unfortunately, he was left to tread this road all by himself.

  g-!

  These thoughts did not distract him from the battlefield as he blocked the ining arrow with the ft side of his greatsword. He swiftly noticed the differeween the archer undead and the scythe undead. The former’s speed was siderably higher pared to the one he had just killed.

  heless, it was because of his swift and decisive strike that he was able to easily dispatch the scythe undead. Letting them act first would allow them to use their skills more often.

  ‘It’s focused o doesn’t have mutelligence…’

  Aleph’s eyes tinued following the traces of the archer undead. His steps only gged a few steps behihe undead could do nothing until the distaween them was closed.

  The ending could be imagihen.

  Psshk-!

  The undead’s throat ierced by the rge greatsword. Aleph felt the sensation of bones and flesh stig close to his bde. It did not fail t a sense of despondeo him.

  “Honkai could attack us, but we could not attack the honkai.”

  Humanity is in a passive position against honkai. Aleph could not help but think of the future.

  ‘How are we supposed to overe it?’

  His thoughts flew to the positions held by the cilors of Fire MOTH. Their internal strife alone greatly reduced Fire MOTH’s efficy. This stupid situation of still choosing to hide honkai’s existehrough martial w was one such example.

  ‘With Sapphire City as an example, more honkai eruptions will occur in the Far East. That third herscherr increased the honkai energy tration of aire ti…’

  Vroom-!

  The sound of wheels stopping made him snap from his thoughts. The door to the other fro opened.

  Sakura, who was in the driver’s seat, asked:

  “Are you satisfied?”

  “Not yet.” Aleph replied. “But I o sort some things for now.”

  Click-!

  There weren't any ges whe in the fro. He did not mind Sakura’s looks as he sed the previous alerts that he swept aside.

  [Knight Killer: A dagger that specializes in breaking armors. All damages inflicted to armored entities will be doubled.]

  [Juezhao: The prototype of an ultimate move within Bajiquan. It may tain the essence of truths in a field.]

  [Bag of Senzu Beans: A bag taining twenty-nine senzu beans. Eae could heal injuries, remove fatigue, aore energy. It does not wainst in-born illnesses and other long-term afflis.]

  Aleph’s pupils dited as he saw each reward. One of them could already be sidered a windfall, yet he received three. He chose to store them all in the ‘space’ inside his mind first. Aleph could not use it for his be, but he discovered that these items would remain within that spatil he called them out.

  ‘A dagger that doubles the damage… Doesn’t this work perfectly against honkai beasts?!’

  Honkai beasts are sili-based lifeforms. All of them have a white sili ‘pte’ on their outermost yer. That was one of the reasons why they are extremely resilient. Only anti-tank shells could pierce through them.

  One could see the sheer power of [Ratio] that creates oints out of nowhere.

  ‘Juezhao… It’s another crystal miniature. It’s definitely a skill or the likes. As for the beans… it’s basically a sed life…’

  These rewards were more than enough to let Aleph return to the battlefield for the sed time.
