Chapter 324: Ichiro Vs. Death.
\'I am dying…\' Ichiro thought with despair as he took his last breath, and everything became dark.
His last view was the dark sky, and only thoughts of regret were left.
He thought he would be used to death, but he will never get used to it.
After the darkness appeared all around. Ichiro felt his body floating in some kind of void, with no light in sight.
He felt tired, but he managed to fight against the sleepiness and slammed his eyes wide open.
His eyelids felt heavy, but he knew that if he fell asleep, it would be the end of his journey!
\'\'I had Death Ignore… Why isn\'t it working!\'\' He shouted, hoping that someone would hear him, \'\'System, hurry up!\'\' His eyelids became heavier with each passing second.
He thought that no one would hear his shout, but someone did.
*SWOOSH*
A sound came behind him, and soon, a portal with a size of 2m appeared not far from him. It was in the color of black, which was almost impossible to see in dark space, but it had a tinge of white, which was like a beacon in the dark space.
Ichiro widened his eyes and saw an individual with dark robes appearing with a scythe on his right hand.
His face was pale with sleepy-looking eyes and dark black eyes. He didn\'t look handsome or ugly, instead someone who was extremely tired of his job and very depressed.
\'\'Hello, lost soul.\'\' His cold voice tickled Ichiro\'s ears, which froze his body from head to toes.
\'\'I am Grim Reaper, and I am here to take you with me.\'\' Without letting Ichiro argue back, he teleported and appeared behind Ichiro with his hand about to touch his head.
Ichiro widened his eyes and did an inhumanly fast back kick!
The Grim Reaper quickly put the Scythe as block and effortlessly blocked the back kick, but he didn\'t look amused, instead angry, \'\'Stop this nonsense and come with me, I don\'t have time for games. I have millions of souls left to collect, and after I am done, I can finally fucking enter Paradise.\'\' His voice was oozed with coldness, and he unleashed his punch with his left hand.
Ichiro widened his eyes and quickly put his arms as a block, but the Grim Reaper\'s punch made his block useless and sent him flying straight towards the black portal!
His body flew through the dark space, and the portal was getting near with each passing second!
\'\'Please work!\'\' Ichiro glanced at his hand and imagined the layer of metal to appear; at first, he felt despair after nothing happened, but a second later…
A layer of metal surrounded his flesh!
\'\'I am still Martial King!\'\' He reeled in his fist and punched straight towards the portal.
*BOOM*!
Out of nowhere, a sound of boom came as Ichiro used the wind pressure coming from his fist to stop his body from flying any further.
He took a deep breath out of relief, but his time of relaxation came to an end as the Grim Reaper noticed what had just happened.
\'\'Tsk!\'\' The Grim Reaper\'s annoyed face was very apparent, \'\'I hate my job.\'\'
*Snap*
He snapped his fingers, and a stack of papers appeared in his hands.
Ichiro frowned and wondered what he was doing now.
The Grim Reaper started going through the papers and soon found what he was looking for, \'\'Kurogami Ichiro, 16 years old. Died in a world called Titan by suicide.\'\' He became even angrier as he threw the stack of papers towards the dark void, \'\'If you don\'t want to die, why the hell you commit suicide? Do me a favor and come with me!\'\'
\'\'Mmm, nah.\'\' Ichiro put his two arms in front of him and went into a boxing stance, \'\'Tell me where the exit is, and I will leave peacefully.\'\'
\'\'You are dead!\'\' The Grim Reaper screamed and had enough of this young man, \'\'There is no exit, only death!\'\' With a swing of his Scythe, a wave of terrifying death energy started approaching Ichiro.
\'\'Molten Breath of Metal Dragon!\'\' Ichiro opened his mouth wide open, and tiny pieces of metal started appearing in his mouth, all the way to his throat. To many, it would look very uncomfortable, but the interior of his mouth turned into metal.
All the way from his mouth to the bottom of his stomach, everything became metal, and instead of feeling uncomfortable, he felt relaxed and powerful.
\'\'RAAAAAAAWR!\'\' With a roar similar to an ancient beast, a blast of molten metal left his mouth!
The blast of molten metal struck with the death energy wave. The metal instantly was getting corrupted by the death energy, but an only a little bit.
Soon, the death energy lost its effectiveness against material that was not living being, and the molten metal won the clash!
Soon, the molten metal started its journey straight towards The Grim Reaper.
\'\'Scythe of Death!\'\' He once again swung his Scythe, which completely vaporized the molten metal from existence.
\'\'Enough!\'\' His scream sent Ichiro flying hundreds of kilometers, with no end in sight.
Ichiro\'s vision became blurry as everything was moving incredibly quick around him.
The Grim Reaper took a single step, but that alone teleported him hundreds of kilometers.
In only a split second, he appeared in front of flying Ichiro and used the blunt end of the Scythe to send a terrifying strike at Ichiro\'s torso.
A rain of saliva left his mouth as he felt every organ, every bone, even cells around his torso being destroyed.
For some reason, he couldn\'t bleed in the dark space; otherwise, he would be spitting his organs out.
Ichiro once again was sent flying hundreds of kilometers, but this time, in a different direction.
The Grim Reaper, with a single step, teleported hundreds of kilometers, and this time, he wanted to end this farce and capture Ichiro once and for all.
After reaching flying Ichiro, he stopped him from flying with another strike at his torso, which both stopped his flying but also made a massive hole on his torso.
\'\'AHH!\'\' Ichiro screamed and saw the Grim Reaper\'s hand being stuck on his body.
\'\'This is what happens when you disobey me.\'\' The Grim Reaper grabbed Ichiro from his ribcage and started dragging him towards the black portal that suddenly appeared out of thin air.
*BAM!*
Ichiro used his Martial King physique to limits, trying to break the Grim Reaper\'s arm, but to no avail.
His powerful strikes didn\'t even make a bruise.
\'\'It\'s useless— you can\'t harm me with your pitiful strength.\'\' The Grim Reaper said, and both of them soon appeared in front of the black portal.
\'\'Molten Breath of Metal Dragon!\'\' Ichiro sent another blast of molten metal at the Grim Reaper, but it didn\'t do anything to him.
It only made him annoyed.
When they were about to get sucked inside the black portal, out of nowhere…
Another portal appeared from thin air, and this time it was a portal in the color of white!
The Grim Reaper turned his head in shock and couldn\'t believe his eyes.
A dozen chains left the white portal and captured Ichiro\'s limbs.
\'\'What?!\'\' The Grim Reaper screamed in shock as he saw Ichiro\'s smirk, \'\'W-W-What the hell?!\'\'
\'\'Fuck you!\'\' Ichiro spat out angrily and showed a middle finger as he started getting sucked inside the white portal.
\'\'Come back!\'\' He tried to reach his hand but couldn\'t catch Ichiro in time as he was finally sucked inside the portal, which led to the Realm of Living.
\'\'No!\'\' Only the Grim Reaper\'s scream of anger was left, and soon, he got sucked inside the black portal with unwillingness.
First time in million years, he has failed to capture a lost soul.
