Single Wish: Rise Of The Omniscient Paragon

As the leader felt the aura exuding from Corey, his brows furrowed and a slight frown appeared on his face.

"Although it's similar to the aura of the martial clan, it's different."

The leader mumbled, and just as he did, one of the ten around him spoke with a young male voice:

"What do you mean Sir? Is he truly part of the martial clan?"

"Can you sense his aura?"

Without looking at the young man who spoke, the leader asked calmly while looking in the direction of the ongoing battle between Corey and the Right Guardian.

Meanwhile the young man who spoke shook his head hearing the leader's question. He and the remaining nine were not strong enough and neither did they have the ability to sense Corey's aura from where they were.

"No I cannot Sir." The young male replied.

"Tell me why the martial clan is one of the feared clans in the universe?"

The leader asked and the young man replied in a heartbeat:

"It's because of their two most important abilities, The transparent world and the selfless state Sir."

"Explain them."

The leader said calmly and the young man replied once again:

"Anybody from the martial clan that's able to enter the realm of the transparent world would be able to see the internal structure of living beings and because of that, when the opponent is about to use a skill or do anything, the person in the realm of the transparent world would be able to see the muscle movement, bone movement and every other thing, granting them to opportunity to react before the opponent attacks or moves."

"As for the selfless state, it's a state that removes all emotions and sensations from the person in this state. The main goal of the person in this state is to win the battle and it also increases the physical prowess of the user."

"Not all in the martial clan have the ability to enter the realm of the transparent world and the selfless state, but it's said that those who can achieve both, would have their combat prowess spike to an unreasonable level."

Hearing the words of the young man, the leader went silent for a while and placed his right hand on his right cheek as he watched the ongoing battle between Corey and The Right Guardian.

'The Right Guardian is going to lose.'

The leader thought with a slight frown before he heaved a tired sigh.

He stood then asked another question towards the young man.

"Do you know the side effects of both skills?"

Hearing the question asked by the leader, the young man had a baffled expression behind his mask for a few seconds before he replied:

"I don't know Sir."

"Hmm. That's not surprising since it's not publicly known."

The leader spoke then started walking towards Corey and The Right Guardian with calm, steady steps. The young man and the remaining nine followed immediately without the leader ordering them to.

"Although the Transparent World and the Selfless State are good abilities, there's a major side effect in my opinion for those who have not mastered the skill."

As the young man followed the leader who was walking in front of him with calm steps, he waited for the next words of the leader but a few seconds passed but the leader still didn't speak, prompting him to speak:

"Sir, you didn't say what the side effects are."

"You'll find out soon enough."

The leader spoke calmly with his eyes still on the battle between Corey and The Right Guardian.

-----

(A few minutes back)

After Corey ignored the words of the Right Guardian, he stared at the Right Guardian with an emotionless gaze, with the tip of the ancient spear in his right hand barely touching the floor.

The winds blew softly and the crickets and insects dared not to make a sound as Corey and The Right Guardian just stared at each other for at least five seconds.

As Corey observed the Right Guardian emotionlessly, his pure white eyes caught sight of the muscles in the legs and arms twitch causing Corey to adjust his body slightly.

Bam!

The Right Guardian moved with intense speed towards Corey reaching Corey in three steps, and with his right hand behind him, he clenched his fist and threw a punch at Corey but Corey with an emotionless expression thrust his spear at the fist causing the pupils of the Right Guardian to constrict.

Puchi!

The spear pierced into the fist but the moment it did, the Right Guardian ignored the spear and threw a punch with his left fist towards Corey's face.

Corey who had seen the muscle and skeletal movement before the movement of the punch was even made, moved to the left, dodging the fist and with the same emotionless gaze he looked at the elbow of the left arm of the Right Guardian.

He raised his right hand calmly and activated the incorporeal ability of the ghost gloves using the little mana he had passively regenerated.

With his right hand been incorporeal, he moved his right hand into the left elbow of the Right Guardian and pushed the bone of the elbow upwards with his full strength after making his hand corporeal.

Crack

A loud crack resounded as the elbow of the Right Guardian got disjointed shocking the Right Guardian immensely.

"What sort of sorcery is this?!"

The Right Guardian shouted with an extremely shocked tone as he looked at his broken left arm.

Just as the Right Guardian shouted, he felt an intense sensation of danger and when he looked down, he saw Corey's spear moving towards the left side of his chest, exactly where his heart was located.

With haste, he threw a palm at the spear, wanting to slam it away from his heart.

But just as his palm was about to touch the spear, the spear moved and instead pierced into his stomach, stunning the Right Guardian once again.

Corey was about to remove his spear from the stomach of the Right Guardian, but just as his hand tightened round the shaft of the spear, the Right Guardian spoke.

"Don't get too cocky."

With a deep voice filled with annoyance and anger, the Right Guardian spoke and kicked Corey with the base of his foot.

Bam Bam Bam

Corey tumbled a few times before he used his spear to impale the ground, forcefully stopping his tumbling.

Despite the fact that the Right Guardian kicked him with full force, he refused to let go of the ancient spear in his hand.

He looked up, wanting to keep his eyes on the Right Guardian, but just as he looked up, a fist slammed into his face, sending him flying.

Bam!

Bang!

The Right Guardian glanced at Corey who had slammed into a wall of a building with a slight frown. He then looked at his gaping stomach and his frown deepened.

"Although the inability of this clone to feel pain is good, it having no weapon and magical abilities is really annoying."

He muttered with a tone of frustration and with a soft grunt he walked towards Corey, but just as he took a step, his face changed drastically and he coughed out a mouthful of black blood.

"What the?"

An expression of shock appeared on his face as he looked at the black blood on the floor, his eyes then moved to his stomach which had darkened and the shock on his face increased.

He looked at his right hand which had also darkened at some point unknown to him.

"How-?"

As the lips of the Right Guardian moved, the world in his eyes spun and his body became hot.

Bam

With a heavy thud, he knelt and panted heavily.

'What sort of poison is this?'

The Right Guardian thought and just as he had that thought, he saw bare feet in front of him causing him to look up.

Seeing the pure white eyes and emotionless expression of Corey, he forced himself to speak despite the intense pain and dizziness he was feeling.

"Who- Who are you?"

He asked but Corey with the same emotionless expression just looked at him and without saying a single word or having a change in his expression, he thrust the ancient spear and stabbed it straight into the forehead of the Right Guardian.

The last thing the clone of the Right Guardian saw was the pure white eyes of Corey that had zero emotions.

Thud

Removing the ancient spear from the head of the Right Guardian, the body fell and assuming Corey was in his normal state of mind, he would be shocked by what happened next to the body of the clone of the Right Guardian.

Instead of the corpse of the clone of the Right Guardian staying as a corpse, it turned to particles of light and disappeared, leaving behind the plain black mask and dark red robes.

Normally, Corey would have been stunned seeing that but in his current state, he just had the same emotionless expression seeing the corpse of the Right Guardian turn to numerous particles of lights.

"Well this is surprising. I didn't know your poison was that strong."

A voice filled with intrigue and calmness rang out causing Corey to turn to the source.

As he turned, he saw the group of eleven and his eyes landed on the leader who spoke.

As he looked at the group that was around 20m away from him, his eyes glanced at Anna who was in the arms of one of the members of the group.

He took a small step forward, but just as he did, his face drastically changed and in an instant, he fell unto his knees.

COUGH! COUGH!

COUGH! COUGH!

He coughed violently and as he coughed, his mouth released a huge amount of blood.

Numerous veins appeared on his forehead and he panted heavily, trying to draw in huge amounts of air.

Thud

While coughing and panting, he fell face flat unto the floor, unable to move and his body wracked with immense pain.

Step Step Step

Calm footsteps rang out in the surroundings and in front of Corey were a pair of shoes.

"Like, I said, there's a major side effect for those who have not mastered the Transparent World and Selfless State."

With a calm tone, the leader spoke as he looked down at Corey who was in immense pain despite his high pain resistance.
