Grim Reaper in the Apocalypse: Reaping Immortals

Chapter 78: Cloud of dust



The Giraffe-Horse was frustrated to no end. The Canzer observed the human's eyes and saw that it was very slow in capturing fast movements. This meant that it was faster than what the human could even process. Yet somehow, he seemed to be able to hear its thoughts on what it was going to do!

Not only that, but his strange weapon was somehow able to penetrate through its armor like it was nothing! As far as it knew, the human simply used the ground as his weapon. 'Human only used dusty soil…no way it's strong…'

The Canzer used all of its intelligence to find a way to defeat this human. The best way was to get up close and personal to his frail and weak body, but his weapon prevented the Canzer from even getting close.

So, it decided to ask for some help.

'Hey you!…Attack the human…'

The Giraffe-Horse grunted and stomped the ground to get the other Canzers to his attention. The Ant-Horse felt horrified when it realized that the Giraffe-Horse was talking to it. There was no hesitation in its moves as it quickly sneaked behind Atlan and readied its sharp mandibles to cut the human in front of it into two.

This would have been the perfect sneak attack.

If only it got rid of its habit of speaking its mind, then Atlan wouldn't have been able to anticipate its attacks too easily.

Just as the large upper body of the Ant Canzer brought down its mandibles towards Atlan's neck, he suddenly ducked and moved to the side.

The Ant-Horse was already surprised that Atlan was even able to dodge its attacks. So, it was even more shocked to suddenly see him grab its head with one hand, using its mandibles as his handle.

With a proper grip, Atlan suddenly twisted his waist and whipped his left leg towards the Ant-Horse's front leg. Experience the magic at m-vl-em-pyr

'PAIN!' it squeaked.

But that wasn't the end. As soon as Atlan's foot landed on the floor, he didn't hesitate to launch another kick right into the exact spot where his attack landed.

'KAGGH!' The Canzer couldn't help but tremble and lose its footing. It couldn't believe the power the human generated from his feet. Just one of his kicks broke its chitinous armor into multiple pieces and bruised its flesh instantly. That would have been enough to disable the Cnazer's movements. But Atlan wasn't done.

He continued to unleash a fury of kicks toward the Canzer at the same location with precision and accuracy. He targeted the horse's front leg, specifically its elbow and forearm. The frightening thing about this was that Atlan's kicks were getting more and more powerful as if he was getting better and better with each kick.

'Feet shoulder-width apart. Pivot back foot. Maintain balance. Bend the knee. Snap the kick.'

Atlan only saw taekwondo from one fight. Yet, he's somehow able to completely absorb the essence of the martial art. His observation skills could not be topped. But his SSS Physique Skill also contributed to this because he was able to completely transfer his theoretical knowledge into his physical body. His body coordination allowed him to do whatever he wanted to do with perfect control.

At this point, the Ant-Horse could no longer stand by itself. It whimpered in pain. It was suffering.

He had to kill it.

He stomped the ground, creating a dust cloud that obscured himself and the Canzer. With one swift move, he grabbed its head and twisted it in one clean motion.

Nobody knew what happened. Almost all of the spectators were looking up at the screen and watching the exciting race instead of the arena. They didn't even know that there was still someone inside. And if anybody was still watching Atlan, they wouldn't have seen anything because of the dust and chaos all around the arena.

[You have reaped the death of a simple creature: Pseudo Canzers]

[Due to your Trait, you have multiplied your experience by 10]

[You have gained 100 experience]

Once the dust settled, the Ant-Horse lay on the ground, not moving a single inch. The Canzer didn't have a pool of blood underneath it, so it was easy to mistake it as simply relaxing and trying to recuperate. After all, how easy was it to kill a Canzer in just one move like Atlan? Almost impossible.

However, the Canzers knew that their brethren died.

No one was more surprised than the Giraffe-Horse. It couldn't believe that the weak human was able to kill a Canzer as easily as that.

'Impossible…how's human so strong?'

But it didn't have time to wonder as it saw Atlan prepare another bullet in his slingshot. A shiver ran down its spine. The Canzer thought that it would be able to defeat Atlan once it was able to close the distance. But that couldn't be more wrong. It looked like the human was even more dangerous up close!

It immediately backed down, creating a large space between it and the human. But it was terrified to see Atlan calmly aiming his slingshot at wherever the Canzer fled. He wasn't even moving! He just stood there, menacingly.

'All of you!...attack the human!' the Giraffe-Horse bellowed.

Unfortunately, every Canzer in the arena witnessed the Ant-Canzer suddenly die in front of the human. Even if they weren't that intelligent, they still had a sense of self-preservation. If they tried to attack the human, then it was easy to guess what would happen to the rest of them.

The Giraffe-Horse clicked its mouth in dissatisfaction. 'All of you!...human can't kill all!....kill the human!'

Even though the Canzers didn't want to attack Atlan, the Giraffe-Horse's words compelled them to do so. It was as if they couldn't defy its orders.

Soon enough, the rest of the Canzers pawed the ground like a bull waiting to charge. None of them wanted to act first. So, they kept charging up their legs to try and build up speed and momentum before they attacked the human.

The whole arena shook as all the Canzers stomped the ground.

And as every Canzer did so, a plume of dust and smoke started to cover the entire arena.

It was at this point that the Canzer realized its mistake. It couldn't see anything in the cloud of dust!
