Chereads / System in an Apocalyptic World / Chapter 33 - Chapter 32: Frost and Inferno.

Chapter 33 - Chapter 32: Frost and Inferno.

[You have died!]

[+10,000 All Stats!]

[+1,000 Attribute Points!]

"I died," Kris said simply. "By a simple attack no less. Guess that Negative Scream Title is quite dangerous."

[Weapon:

Aqua Cleaver (Short Sword) - Elite]

Kris then said, "It's already time to use this thing."

[Passive Skill:

Weapon God - Holy/Level 3]

[Passive Skill:

Holy Wielder - Holy/Level 3]

[Active Skill:

Mana Manipulation - Rare/Level 5 (Max)]

[Active Skill:

Weapon Aura of Creation - Holy/Level 4]

[Active Skill:

God's Divine Aura - Holy/Level 3]

Kris then crafted a dagger made from his Mana. A thick but short handle and a curved blade.

[Active Skill:

Full Weapon Body Refinement - Mystical/Level 1]

[Active Skill:

Divinity of Brawn - Elite/Level 2]

[You've purchased x100 Realm Sticky String!]

[You are alive!]

Efriet and Eden even more powerful than before. The time their souls materialized into physical and humanoid forms, they were naturally inexperienced and in their most and utter imperfect form. The more they spent in their body, the more they adjusted to it and we're able to pour out plenty more power and strength.

They had fully adjusted to their body and were now at peak Beta-Grade strength as they were once Boss-Grade.

***

"Huh?" Efriet inquired.

"What is it?" Eden asked.

Efriet responded by simply saying, "He's back."

[Active Skill:

Instantaneous Acceleration - Unique/Level 5 (Max)]

At a pace, faster than the speed of sound and rivaling the speed of light, came Kris - this time nit naked with his outfit on. He made his dagger of Mana vanish and grabbed Eden by his face. Kris lifted him into the air and slammed him into the ground and then dashed away towards Efriet.

"???" Eden was in utter shock.

Efriet - in the next second - found himself off the ground and hanging a one feet off in the air. Kris then kicked him in the liver sideways and used his other foot to step into his chest, sending him downwards.

Efriet chest was being rapidly cut while Kris just laid his foot bottom on his chest. He then summoned a line of fire through his two fingers and shot it at Kris.

Kris dodged and then lifted into the air and punched him.

"The way you guys are glowing is going make sick and blind," Kris said.

Eden then appeared behind him.

He then said, "Ice Storm."

Suddenly, from but directions, an avalanche of ice came.

"(Haven't I seen this before.)" Kris commented internally.

The ice crashed into Kris, but before it could touch him, the ice got sliced into a million pieces because of Full Weapon Body Refinement.

All his buff had reached there max duration.

Kris then made back a dagger of Mana and slashed Aqua at Eden. Water then emerged from the blade.

Kris then twirled and slashed Eden on the legs, then the hands, then finally the neck. The slashes were pulled so they only caused bleeding.

He then jumped upwards and slammed Eden in the face with his knee. Then he grabbed him by the face and ran away, dragging Eden along side him.

"Ahh, my belly," Efriet whined.

"Fuckwad!!!" Eden exclaimed from afar as he was being dragged by Kris.

It was too late as Efriet was clenched by the neck and dragged away. Efriet couldn't breathe as he was held by the neck.

"(*Sigh* I should have had equipment, but I sold everything because I got this outfit. Now I have get some new shit. But why am I bringing this up?)"

Efriet then formed a magic circle infront of his mouth and released a flames towards his face.

"I'm blind," Kris said lifelessly and sarcastically.

He then tossed the brotherly duo away and they both crashed into a far away building, turning it into rubble.

Efriet got up to his feet and then said, "Shit. I guess we weren't the only ones that got stronger."

From out of nowhere, Kris then kicked Efriet in his jaw and grabbed him by face, slamming him into the ground and making a mini crater that eventually grow, making itself a hundred feet radius with a nine hundred meter hole and cracks.

"Fuck it," said Eden in a weak voice. "I'm going to kill you bastard!!"

Eden then got back kicked in the chest without Kris even looking.

"Could you just shut up?" Kris inquired as he tossed Efriet to his brother.

Eden caught him in his arms, but was sent flying away.

[Active Skill:

Pyrokinesis - Common/Level 1]

[Active Skill:

Fire Domain - Rare/Level 1]

A large orb of fire, about a thousand meters in radius, surrounded the city and encompassed both Efriet and Eden. Everything was in fire, the air and the ground.

"Now what is this?" Eden inquired.

"A booster card for me and him, but a debuff for you," said Efriet. "Right now, your either melting or sweating."

Eden then took a look at his hands and saw that his flesh was literally slide off his hands and being liquified.

"Shit!"

Efriet - not bothered - lined up a shit used two finger once again. He then fired a large flame towards Kris.

Kris blocked the attack with his blade. It wasn't due to how slow the attack was, it was quite fast. It was because he was faster.

[Passive Skill:

Weapon Barrier - Elite/Level 1]

Eden then charged at Kris and gave out a compilation of slashes. He also threw a few ranged icicles and shards.

"Too slow," said Kris as he dodged sideways.

Eden was attacks and himself were too slow. It was due to him melting alive and also burning alive.

"How do you think you can beat?" Kris inquired.

[Active Skill:

Master Forger & Craftsman - Legendary/Level 1]

[You've forged x1 Sticky Grappler!]

Kris then shot a string into the sky and then was launched into the air, escaping his own barrier. In the air, he summoned Aqua and then a entire ocean of water above his head, literally.

The Fire Domain Skill then reached its duration.

He then pointed Aqua at the ground and a flood was doomed to happen as the water rained down on the planet.

Efriet then said lackadaisically, "My archenemy."

The water then flooded the city, turning it into an entire ocean in just eight seconds.

Kris then remembered, "Oh, I should have been slicing their chest instead of kicking them. Now how am I going to find those two? And am I just dangling in the air like this?"

"You want an answer for your question?"

Kris then glanced behind and saw both Eden and Efriet floating in the air.

"(So these asshole's can fly? I thought they would've just drowned since that attack flooded a whole continent.)"

Kris was referring to the Old Earth continents.

"It's because there's three hours left," said Eden.

Kris then inquired with the same tone, "What?"

Kris naturally believed that all the Monsters, creatures, people, or 'objects' for him, knew about the System. But he would never think they could see other peoples Quest, since appraisal Skills could only see Stats and Equipment.

"How the hell do you know that?" Kris asked.

Eden then answered by saying, "We can see your memories, jackass."

"What?"

He then thought about this way. Since they are his Weapons, they must link with him somehow. The System can probably do anything and everything.

"Is that so?" Kris inquired.

"How many times are you going to say that line-?" Eden was suddenly chopped off, literally, by Kris.

Kris - with Aqua - sliced Eden in half at his chest by throwing his Weapon.

An aura full of danger, malice and terror that threaten everyone's presence suddenly cloaked Kris figure. His silhouette was of a demon of fear. At first, the brothers saw him as a robot but now he was like a devil.

Kris then said, "Stop going through my fuckin head...!"

His voice was filled with so much fear that Efriet gulped in terror that he forgot that his brother was dead because his Soul Core was destroyed.

"My childhood was dog shit! They said I had it all, I was spoiled. Everyone envied me but they won't if they were in my shoes," Kris recalled. "My mom wanted me to be like a robot while my father was a little sissy around my mother. Even though I have my favorite memories with him I despise him."

Kris raised his gaze and peered at his prey, "Leave my bullshit, you sons of bitches!!"

"..."

A moment of silence enveloped the scene. Efriet couldn't do or say anything except release sweat. The next second, he disappeared but then reappeared behind Kris.

"So you're going to try your luck, huh?" Kris inquired. "Let's hope it's a million."

Efriet then launched a series of fire based attacks. All from magic circles that he had summoned.

[Active Skill:

Instantaneous Acceleration - Unique/Level 5 (MAX)]

But all of that was dodged by a Skill.

"Say nighty night," Kris said.

He then swinged towards Efriet and stabbed him in the chest repeatedly before he saw...

[Quest Completed!]
