Chapter 240: You Make Me Seem Like A Joke

“Eh!?” A gasp of shock escaped her lips as she looked at the young man in front of her as if having teleported.

His hands slowly stretched forward, one of his fingers inching close toward her forehead and then she twisted, making a move that caused his eyes to widen in shock.

A few seconds earlier…

“Give me a few seconds, let me prepare…” Zeras said out loud warming his body up, yet beneath his smile, slight pulses were gently escaping his feet.

A circular airwave blew gently as his leg muscles were stretched taut, and veins were slowly appearing over them.

Raising his head, he flashed an evil smirk at the amateur to was still waiting for him to finish.

Of course, Zeras was well aware the arrows surrounding him had already completely sealed his escape route. The best way to break through the encirclement was to move faster than she could make them move forward who would have thought she even gave him the time?

A cobweb-shaped cracks appeared beneath his feet as he disappeared.

— — —

Zera’s finger moved with speed, a circular ripple around his finger as it closed on with speed towards Gaia’s forehead.

‘Ah, how naive…’

That was his thoughts when suddenly, he saw her jump upward, lying horizontally on the ground, her face an inch from resting on his finger.

‘She dodged it? That’s impossible!’

BANG

The air beneath her feet gently rustled as she jumped into the air at the last second, rolling a few times before gently landing on the ground.

Slowly Zeras stood upright as he stood up, turning back to look at Gaia who was surrounded by her arrows.

“You have quite the reaction speed…” He complimented with a smirk on his face.

“Never give your opponent time to prepare, uh? I’ll keep that in mind…”

Gaia said, her white hair lighting up with a green light as the gigantic bow appeared in her hands.

Her head slightly bent as a green wave of light emanated from her hands, the same gigantic arrow that she used to kill the robots appearing again.

‘Activate The Eyes of Chaos…’

Immediately, all her arrows hanging around her in the air moved outwards with speed, creating hundreds of circular ripples in the air as they appeared instantly in front of Zeras, whose left eye suddenly had a strange dark hole in it.

“Lesson number 2!: Don’t use the same move twice on an unknown enemy!”

RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIP

It was like a knife through butter as a body parted the air apart the air.

Hundreds of images appeared as time seemed to slow down completely to Zeras.

The arrows moving towards him were just too slow. So slow he felt like yawning!

‘So this is the result of leveling up my speed to a hundred? How interesting…’

And immediately he moved, bending his head an inch, moving his hands upwards an inch, raising his right leg, stretching his head forward. It was like the game of walking through ropes that would trigger an alarm if steeped on, except it wasn’t still ropes but arrows moving at the speed of sound.

And with those small movements, Zeras completely avoided all the arrows, stepping out of their encirclements.

KABOOOOM

Alm the arrows immediately slammed hard on the wall, causing a mushroom of dust to blow up in the place.

Gaia’s eyes widened to saucers as her brain almost failed to comprehend what just happened right now.

She saw hundreds of Zeras suddenly appear.

‘Doppelganger?’ She thought but immediately pushed away the thought.

‘No, that’s not it. That’s… speed?’

BOOOOM

The mushrooms of dust slowly settled and right in front of her eyes, his figure became prominent as she looked at him dusting away his uniform from the dust that stained it.

“He’s… he’s completely unharmed. That’s impossible!”

“You know your arrows are really fast but you’re too predictable. I knew well what you’d be doing next and immediately reacted before you could even make the move. That’s what using the same moves again does to you. It makes you predictable!” Zeras said, a smirk on his face as he watched her shock.

It was just as he said. Once he saw her bring out her gigantic arrow, he already knew she would try trapping him with the smaller arrows.

That’s why he was instantly able to activate Eyes of Chaos and focused completely on those small arrows while also preparing to dodge. He already was two moves ahead before his opponent could even release her move!

“Even if you predicted it. My arrows move at a speed slightly above Mach 1. It should be impossible for an Early Meteor rank stage to be able to move more than Mach 1…” Gaia replied, her face clouded in doubt.

“You aren’t the only abnormality in this world, my lady. Mach 1? Do you want me to laugh?” Zeras asked raising an eyebrow.

He knew well if he activated Dash, he couldn’t move at Mach 3 and that was when he was at the Peak Star rank stage. Now that he was at the Meteor rank stage and after upgrading his natural speed. Only the devil knows how fast he can move if he activates Dash!

“Every time I met you. You’ve always managed to surprise me with your growth, Zeras. I watched you begin your cultivation journey. You were an ordinary mortal when I was at the Middle star rank stage.

And you suddenly improved so fast. Now I’m at the Middle Meteor and you’re at the Early Meteor rank stage. You make all my hard work seem like a joke. You make the years of hard work and relentlessly cultivating that it takes to improve one’s cultivation seem like a parlor trick.

And you don’t at all seem to be one harboring any goal at all. You act dumb, and stupid, and never take anything seriously. You’re too lax, how can one like you grow so fast? What are you hiding, Zeras?”

“Huh?”

Zeras raised an eyebrow as his left eye twitched repeatedly. He never thought that was how she perceived him.

“Even right now, I have a feeling I can’t defeat you even though I’m clearly stronger than you. Zeras, I want to find out your absolute limit…”
