Demon Slaying System - Chapter 93

” Seems like the time to call Gregor and Haylin had came this time! ”

Spilling these words out her mouth weakly, levi fell over the floor as her weakness kick in following it.

She was lying down flat, in a defenseless posture. But her beautiful eyes which turned red in tiredness were still glaring at mark a bit offensively as if she was telling ” Do you dare! ” in it.

Sidmon and clain were present in a terrible condition to begin with, so the turn for Gregor and Haylin had came this time around.

Levi had chosen to close her eyes under her present tiredness, waiting around for the duo to make their appearance, and recuperate her fast.

So she could finish dealing with the last set of puppets, which were yet to be harvested of their cores to begin with.

” Gregor! Haylin! ” Mark bellowed their names loudly, to grab their attention. He then exclaimed stating ” Do the role you were intended for, let this mark hold them for you! ”

Nodding to mark, the duo had rushed towards them, but formed a team with mark before they did so.

Forming teams and exiting them could be done in matter of a second to begin with, and could also be considered a hole left behind by the test tract if pondered on.

A person at max could form a team of three including him, but can also dissolve it the following second, if a mate in that newly formed team didn’t wished for it to continue.

Though the arena knows of this fact, they had yet to remove of this bug, as they didn’t necessarily bothered to do so. In most cases the members turn hostile while their temporary groups are dissolved.

So this noticeable hole had necessarily increased the difficulty of the test, as the authority wanted to make it more competitive in nature.

The cases where team members are still on friendly terms, after this sudden disolvement was rare. Unless they were bosom buddies to begin with or core members of same family with a good relationship.

But never in their wildest dreams, could these old timers from upper management imagine that, they could be faced slapper hardly by mark.

Not only was mark able to survive in this trap, he manged to unite their families abandoned geniuses into his force, and was using them to break through their own designed traps.

Mark had made use of an another hole to his uss, that was the puppets ignorance.

When the maximum number of people who could form a team was set to three, the puppet would ignore all other obstacles in its course, with its internal settings.

Be it the testers who were not its targets or the puppets who did not share a common target they need to deal with.

So when mark exited the team with levi, forming a new one with the duo of Sidmon and Clain. The puppets that targeted Sidmon and clain would also naturally target mark, but will ignore levi.

Though it’s simple, it itself was a major blunder to begin with, a hole that the arena did not expect to foresee, as no tester outside the team had helped others till today, as they did not even had a luxury to worry about others, considering their own difficulties that had to deal with.

Forming a team with levi, at that time was not possible, and levi would become a ghost in the eyes of puppets, as they would simply ignore her presence, her actions and their consequences, or to say frankly that she’d become invisible under her mechanical eyes.

So strength in number had played a major role here. Mark and levi had to kill their puppets before hand, if this case was to become a reality, if not dealing with four division masters at a time was a major hassle, which increases the difficulty, considering the number of elements involved in it.

So when levi caught their weapons, these puppets could only reason that their weapons were struck in middle of air by an unknown cause, and it was necessary to retrieve their weapons out that hold for use.

So they had meaninglessly struggled against levi to get off their weapons, which was not possible considering their strength that couldn’t best the cultivation of levi at king class.

While mark had been trying to breach their armour, to get the central core within. They could prioritise their core before the name of weapons they were holding and choose to abandon them as their mechanism suggest, which reduced their attack power.

So they become weaponless as a result, and choose to fight mark bear hand, to shook him off their bodies and protect the large central life core present within.

This game of playing ghost had sparked marks brain, after his first encounter with these cored puppets. I.e, when fighting them at the second division. The time when mark had rescued the four, sacrificing his own points in return which helped him obtain their hearts.

Though mark wanted to make use of Sidmon and clain, in fighting the final set of puppets, he could not. As they were going through the periods of acute mana deficit. Mark had not chosen to abandon them, as he could simply choose to save them, after completing the current hassle of fending this last set of puppets and killing them following it.

Unlike before, where mark had simply dashed against them barbarically, this time he choose to make use of them and understand the core aspects of the technique, he was just imparted by the mysterious object before.

The four ways of asura, the technique which made his blade react to wasn’t a simple technique to begin with.

Even with the knowledge he gained from the old life couldn’t measure the immense depth of this technique to begin with.

If it was to be graded, he could even have to place the boundless impetus body a grade below it for instance, which he painstakingly obtained from an old inheritance, risking his life, escaping out that place by hair breath.

As the name suggests, the person had to train this technique until his existing self will morph slowly into an asura in the end.

Though his existing bloodlines would not be tampered. His muscles, bones, organs and meridians and even soul as the end would rival that of the unshakable asura that even god’s fear facing against them.

The technique was basically split into four parts corresponding to the number of ways the name bears. Though the technique was necessarily imparted to his brains, mark didn’t had the access to all the four ways he should master for him to become an asura.

Only the way of strength, the first among the four was unlocked for him to train. The time when his mastery over this first way reaches a satisfactory stage, would the second way he unlocked and so on.
for visiting.

The technique also states that the initial requirement for this technique’s practitioners is to have a strong foundation, a strong body that wouldn’t necessarily crumble under heightened pressures of the second way.

If not for a stable foundation the practitioner wouldn’t necessarily be able to last a second before his body explodes into a plump of blood unable to withstand that force circulated in his body.

Leaving aside the trivial information, mark had directly went through the ways he could master the way of strength beforehand facing these puppets.

All he need to do was circulate his mana in his present existing meridians, but at a different rates, at different times and also at different loads of it.

But a series of mantras had to be recited in mind beforehand when performing this technique, a single mishap could turn deadly as this technique was not a thing trivial to begin with.

Since the puppets were undying, not easy to deal with, and levi needs some time, before she could recuperate thoroughly. Mark choose to place his bet and increase his understanding in this technique to depth by sparring again these puppets before him.
