Chapter 138



“I already told you, alchemist, I won’t hand her over so you better leave.” Fade then emitted killing intent which was directed at the Alchemist.

The Alchemist felt an intense pressure as every single fiber of his being screamed at him to run away, his very instincts told him to flee. The pressure emitted by Fade was so intense the Alchemist started to hallucinate. He saw a mountain of dead bodies and the souls of the dead screaming in pain. The Alchemist unconsciously shivered in fear, but that was just the reaction of his body, and his mind was still crystal clear. The Alchemist smiled as he spoke to Fade.

“As expected of an assassin like you, how many have you killed for you to have such a killing intent? It’s quite funny that the little alchemist called me a monster, but compared to the number of people you killed aren’t you the true monster?”

“I will not deny it, I am a monster but a different kind from you. So are you going to leave Alchemist, or are you going to force me to make you leave?”

The Alchemist didn’t respond as he licked his lips. Fade noticed that the Alchemist’s eyes were looking around the place, but Fade did not move his head as all his focus was on the Alchemist. What the Alchemist did was a common way to distract an opponent for a second, but such tricks do not work on Fade.

Seeing his move didn’t work the Alchemist sighed as he lifted his arms as if to surrender, but Fade wasn’t fooled as he swung his arms and the thin wires in his gloves caught whatever the Alchemist threw.

.....

“Oh, so that’s the kind of weapon you use.” The Alchemist’s eyes practically sparkled with interest as he looked at the vials he threw being suspended in the air.

“You’re really going to make me waste my time.” As the Alchemist was talking he once again looked at his watch. “Alright then, we can play for a little bit.”

The Alchemist plucked one of the wires and it suddenly caught on fire, in a second the fire rapidly spread to the other wires. Fade quickly swung his arm tossing the vials he caught to the opposite side of the restaurant, he then cut off the wires that he had used. With that one technique Fade got an answer to a question he had since he saw the Alchemist, that the alchemist was really using mana. Not only was the alchemist using mana but his control over it was far better than Michael. Fade was expecting the people of this world to not be this good, that even if they had mana he imagined they wouldn’t be as skilled as this.

The Alchemist was quite surprised as well, at how quickly Fade reacted but that didn’t matter as he was already making his next move. The Alchemist took out another vial and was about to spill it, but Fade was able to break the vial with a needle. The Alchemist then staggered a little bit backward.

Fade then used this opportunity to get near the Alchemist, but that was a mistake. The moment Fade got close enough he got a whiff of something and quickly backed away. Still, whatever it was he smelled despite only making contact with it for a brief moment it still affected him. Fade felt that his fingers were slightly numbed, he was still able to move them but there was a delay.

Fade clicked his tongue as he needed to remind himself again that the body he was using wasn’t his original body which was already immune to most poisons. He now needed to change how he usually fought alchemists.

...

The Alchemist was also quite surprised at how fast Fade was reacting to every single action that he made. The moment he took out a vial, Fade would destroy it by throwing a needle. Fade also no longer used his hidden wires which limited the Alchemist’s way of attacking as he could only set something on fire by touching it. He wasn’t skilled enough in using the world’s energy for long-distance attacks.

The Alchemist sighed before he suddenly dashed forward. Fade was not expecting that, but he could not back away since if he did the Alchemist would be able to nab Mollie Fletcher. Fade had no choice as he used his precise control over his mana to push out whatever toxin the Alchemist’s body was emitting. This technique would drain his mana faster but at the moment had no other option.

The Alchemist who got close to Fade was rather surprised that his concoction that was all over his body was not working on Fade, despite him seeing Fade being affected just moments ago. Still, now that he was this close, all the Alchemist needed to do was slightly touch any part of Fade’s body and the latter would start burning.

The Alchemist’s physical abilities were above average and normally he would be able to fight a normal rank sixth martial artist even without using any tricks, unfortunately for him, he was facing Fade.

The moment the Alchemist tried to touch him, Fade evaded to the side and pierced the Alchemist’s arm that was stretched out. Fade didn’t just stab randomly as he stabbed three pressure points of the Alchemist’s arm. The Alchemist could no longer move his right hand, but that did not stop him to extend his left hand, unfortunately, the same thing happened again.

Fade thought that he had neutralized the Alchemist, but to his surprise, the Alchemist’s toe touched his trench coat and it started to burn. Fade didn’t even notice the Alchemist removing his boots, but that didn’t matter as he tossed his trench coat at the Alchemist blinding the opponent.

Fade moved behind the Alchemist and was going to knock him out, but before Fade could make his move the Alchemist’s watch started ringing. The Alchemist dodged Fade’s attack on his blindspot and backed away towards the entrance of the restaurant. Fade did not pursue the Alchemist and stuck close to the unconscious Mollie, Larry, and Matsuri.

Despite his arms being pierced by numerous needles and aren’t able to move, despite being unable to defeat Fade and capture Mollie Fletcher, despite all of these setbacks the Alchemist still had a grin on his face.

“This was a fun game we played, but unfortunately my time is up. Well, I guess I can allow you to keep experiment#438, for now. I will take what’s mine eventually. So I guess this is goodbye, Fade... Oh right, my name is Johann, I hope you don’t forget me. Until the next time, then.”

“Fade, don’t let him get away!”

Michael shouted, but at that moment, Johann opened his mouth and bit something inside releasing a blinding light. Once the light faded Johann was no longer there.
