I Can Copy And Evolve Talents

Chapter 339  Out Of The Rift

Beads of sweat trickled down his forehead as his facial features broke down in horror. His hands trembled and his eyes were widened like they had seen a mighty terror.

This was the first time Northern was seeing this kind of expression on Sura's face.

He wasn't even this scared when he made mention of the Tyrant from before.

"You have no idea what you have done!!" He shouted at Northern.

Who in response did not really care.

All that went about Northern's mind was that he had the rift core in his hand; finally, they could get out.

He was also very happy that he didn't seem to have spent so long compared to the last time he was in a rift.

He looked at the core in his hand for a couple of seconds and raised his head to Sura, who refused to undo his Frostbite Reflection but was trembling seriously.

That reflective defense was the only thing stopping Northern from getting him.

And Northern wanted to get him so badly.

Raven took a step closer to him and placed her hands on his arm.

"Let's get out of here."

Northern turned his head to her and gave a small smile.

Then he returned his gaze to Sura and said:

"Goodbye Sura."

He crushed the core with his hands.

[Congratulations]

[You have destroyed the rift's core]

[You have accomplished some incredible feats]

[You alone decimated over three thousand monsters of the rift]

[What an outstanding feat that is] n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

[You defeated a creature of the underworld]

[Your effort will not go unnoticed]

[Your soul evolved]

[The furnace of forge grows ever stronger in your soul, forging the Chaos and Void into oneness with you]

[You shall gain talent fragments for these points]

[You have gained +100 talent fragments]

[You have gained +150 talent fragments]

[You have gained +200 talent fragments]

As the panels displayed themselves before his eyes, Sura's scream almost blinded his ears.

He shouted and groaned like a madman. Eventually started to curse at Northern.

"You vermin! You dare!!! You dare deceive me!!! I will find you!!! If it takes me a thousand years, I will find you and find all shades of you that there is!!! I will kill you and kill everyone related to you, I'll make them suffer and beg for their death. You insolence! I will never forgive you!!!"

His body broke apart as he shouted, white light leaking out from within.

Eventually, the light began to force itself out more, breaking apart his body as he shouted.

"Please! Please!! Save me!!! He will find me!! I can't meet him like this, I am not ready!!! I will suffer!!!"

Sura shouted as he disintegrated into sparkles of light.

Through it all, Northern stared at him with a cold look on his face.

After Sura had finally disappeared, Northern worried a little about his plea in the end.

He would suffer, he was not ready, he can't meet him like this.

Was it Taerun Lor? Or was it a Tyrant?

Northern didn't know which one it was, at least this event further reinforces the need for him to get stronger.

Because one day... he might have to face them.

And if they are the mastermind of these rifts...

Northern sighed.

'I won't spare any of them.'

The rift trembled tremendously; it couldn't hold out anymore since its core had been destroyed.

"Northern, I guess it's time for us to leave."

Raven said to him from behind, then she turned her head backward.

There was a whirling pool of soul essence with a whitish appearance behind them.

Definitely, that was the way out of the rift.

Northern looked at the rewards he had received from the rift.

They were a lot, and he never expected that talent fragments could be gifted for free like that.

'If there's any place I should have received a lot of talent fragments as rewards, it would have been that damned Red Mine Kingdom.'

[Only Drifter rank and above can reap feat rewards]

[Since your soul was still incomplete as a walker, you couldn't]

'Hmm,' Northern nodded.

He sighted the rest of the notification panel.

[Rift has been swallowed by Limitless Void]

[The area of Limitless Void has grown]

[Some new features have been unlocked for the Limitless Void]

[Make sure to explore them later]

Northern glanced at the dead girl and looked in the direction where he had thrown Ulzred's body into the river of lava.

Then he turned back with a heavy heart and walked towards the portal.

Corpse Eater and Koll had long returned to the embrace of his Void, so he walked alone with Raven and entered into the portal...

...Coming out in the swampy forest.

Suddenly, a loud and thunderous tremor shook the entire scape such that Raven and Northern almost faltered their step.

Raven frowned and looked at Northern whose brows were also getting furrowed.

[Sense] had gotten better since his soul evolved, so he could immediately tell.

"All the monsters in the forest are rampaging... I don't know, it's like something is waking up."

The frown on Raven's face suddenly got dark, her eyes narrowed into a stormy grey as she fixed an intense, displeased glare straight ahead.

"You know something, don't you?"

A drop of sweat trickled down Raven's forehead.

"When I was making plans for this journey through investigating the Lord of Lotheliewan's diary, there was one little bargain that I made."

Northern looked at her; he had a very bad feeling about what was about to come out of her mouth.

In fact, he'd have wished for her to stop, but unfortunately, he had to know.

At least, she was being straight honest even outside the rift.

She continued,

"If the bargain was to fail, I was sure that we all would die. None of us could make it back..."

Northern raised his chin a little.

He wasn't even surprised anymore at how thoughtless, careless, and ignorant she could be.

"You bargained with my life without even informing me?" Northern growled at her.

"You collected all the soul cores, I think that's enough payment for jeopardizing your life. Besides, it's not like you didn't know that every fight with a monster is your life being bargained."

"Yeah? But this is with a monster you can't beat, none of us can beat, right?"

Raven looked away with a frown then looked back.

"Maybe before... but now, I'm sure we can survive."
