Chapter 364 Insane Speed
Finding the enemy will be difficult in those situations. So, Aion left the town and wondered what he should do to decrease the hassle that would be that job… he knew that killing the enemy won't solve the issue completely. Still, Aion had to at least try and see what would happen.
After thinking for a short while, Aion thought that going to the past and then trying to watch the movements of the enemy from afar would be the best option. Still, it was unlikely that they wouldn't notice Aion's presence… so using those relics wasn't a good idea.
"This guy wants me to kill everyone, and they probably have a way of making everyone know that I was the cause of the deaths here… still, unless I get rid of the sources of mana that he created, I can't find them," Aion rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "These guys are starting to get annoyingly crafty."
"While it will be only temporary, with the level of mana you possess, you can probably replicate the relic that we used to prevent people from invading our lands," Arc said. "First of all, the relic covered a large area, and then you would make a thin line of mana circulate the area of the magic field created at regular intervals of time. You should find your target with ease since they will have a magic signature higher than the others."
Aion nodded… it was like a magic radar… Arc thought that Aion would need a longer explanation, but since he came from Earth, he knew how a radar operated. It was almost like he could see one inside his head, maybe it was because it was thanks to the control of his mana that originated there.
First of all, Aion imagined how the spell would work and how he could use his mana. To cover a large area, he would need a ton of mana. There was no chance for failure since the enemy would be able to tell what Aion was planning once he felt his mana.
"Let's see… ten extra mana orbs added with my current mana pool should be fine to make this work once," Aion thought once he felt confident about the plan.
There was no time to hesitate, so Aion put the plan into action once he absorbed the orbs. A massive field of magic spread around that nation, forming a perfect circle, and before the stability could end, Aion made his mana pulse from one side to the other of the circle… he found a large and powerful presence Northeast of his current location… six hundred kilometers away.
Aion immediately summoned the draconic wanderer and then wrote the flying rune on him… the trip hadn't been comfortable since Aion didn't create anything to make the trip comfortable. He just grabbed the draconic wanderer's feet and tried not to fall… thanks to it, he reached the area where he felt the enemy's presence after ten minutes.
After using the relics again, Aion saw the light pointing to the East… the son of a bitch was trying to run away to the ocean. In the end, Aion used more mana orbs to fly even faster, and then he saw a weird humanoid creature running at five hundred kilometers per hour.
"Wow, even I can't do that… is too tiresome for the legs," Aion thought once he found the enemy. "That body is…"
It seemed like a human… but much to Aion's surprise, the guy had a metallic body and even winds that were silver like since they were made of some metal. If he had wings, why would he run?
In any case, Aion was almost certain that it wasn't armor… it was too tight to be armor. While Aion knew that there might come a time when people would be able to make armor like that, he already knew the future of that world, and no one was able to do that… probably.
The man looked over his shoulder and saw Aion approaching… his head didn't look to be made of metal. In fact, Aion saw a man with black hair and blue eyes… it wasn't an android or super advanced robot, so it was hard to imagine that it was the same creature that targeted the guardians…
Aion sped up to approach the enemy, but then the body of that guy suddenly began to glow blue, and then his speed Increased… it doubled in a single moment.
"What the fuck…" Aion furrowed his eyebrows and clicked his tongue when he saw the ocean ahead.
Aion summoned the draconic wanderer again… that was annoying, but he will have to attack while being pulled by him. His speed increased, and soon he saw the enemy running over the ocean while splitting the water with the blasts of his steps. With that much weight… he could only run on water with that speed, after all.
When Aion was about to attack, the asshole Increased his speed again, and Aion couldn't help but open his eyes widely in shock. He got two times faster and then all of a sudden three times faster… no wonder he managed to infect so many people in that country and so fast.
Still, Aion couldn't let that guy escape… wherever he went, he will cause a disaster and then find a way to blame Aion. That guy had to be killed now.
"Stop and face me, you piece of shit?" Aion shouted. "You left your balls on the other side of the mirror? Don't use time magic if you don't have the courage to face me, asshole."
The enemy looked over his shoulder and just smirked while looking at Aion. That sure pissed him… still, before Aion could do anything, the enemy Increased his speed again.
Aion was starting to get dizzy while moving like that… it would have been different if he could use Seris' rune. After all, he was starting to get used to moving one hundred times faster. Still, he had a better idea…
