The Greatest Sinner

Chapter 163 - The Prince



Reinier was quick to attack Evan, he didn\'t see him as an opponent. Evan was weak and slow by his standards. Though Reinier was puzzled by the one-eyed raven sitting on Evan\'s shoulder, he did not dwell on it. The raven was strong, but Reinier had no problem handling it.

Evan instantly cast the "Ice Veil" and then the "Magic Missile". Honestly, he didn\'t see any way to win this fight. He needed to somehow buy time and find a way to escape to survive. It was the best option he could hope for.

Reinier took a step to the side and dodged the beam flying at him.

"No need to resist, the outcome is already decided." Calmly Reinier said, and the lightning bolts began to accumulate in his hand.

They turned into a long spear that he threw at Evan. The speed of the throw was extraordinary, Evan had no time to dodge this attack.

Boom.

Suddenly a purple beam hit the spear and there was a deafening explosion. The raven fought together with Evan, for Reinier was going to kill it as well. It was an evolved monster, and therefore very valuable.

<Damn it, he\'s too strong, how do I get out of this trap>. While Evan was trying to think of a plan, and Reinier was already near him.

He attacked the young man sharply, aiming for his head. Evan reacted and blocked the blow, but suddenly he felt a terrible pain in his stomach. Reinier had struck several blows at once, sending the young man flying.

Reinier put his attention to Evan\'s unusual weapon: "AHAHAHA, what a good weapon you have, I think I\'ll take it for myself, it\'ll probably be worth a lot." Said Reinier with a satisfied smile on his face.

Evan got up and decided to attack again, and the raven attacked Reinier together with him. But, their attacks were again unsuccessful. With one smooth blow, Reinier tossed the raven aside.

Whoosh.

Evan swung the scythe, but Reinier took a few steps back and said: "Nice movements, but you lack speed."

Bam.

Reinier spun around and hit Evan with all his might. 

His palm slammed into the young man`s chest and he was thrown back several meters and bumped into a tree.

Blood trickled from the corners of his lips. Not even a few minutes into their fight, and he was already nearly defeated.

<Damn, if I miss a few more of these blows, I\'ll be dead for sure. I wouldn`t like to use it now, but in this goddamn forest, no one will notice me.>

"Hey, how have you managed to make friends with a monster? It\'s the first time I\'ve seen anything like that, you\'re a pretty interesting person. Learn me how to interact with monsters and I\'ll spare you. Just kidding!"

Reinier lunged toward Evan. He could have finished the young man off with a spell, but he saw no need to waste mana on it now. In his opinion, Evan had no chance of surviving.

  Whoosh.

Suddenly Evan moved the scythe into the spatial ring and a red glow began to emanate from him.

"Huh, I wouldn\'t tell you, even if I knew. You annoy me too much." Evan said coldly and the next moment a huge snake appeared around his hand.

Reinier was dumbfounded. He sensed incredible danger from this snake, and Evan\'s aura grew considerably in an instant.

"What a creepy feeling..." Reinier muttered and stepped aside.

Crack.

Lightning gathered in his hand and a spear instantly flew toward Evan. Now Reinier wasn\'t about to save mana.  At the moment Evan was a real threat to him.

Evan didn\'t dodge this attack, he raised his hand and the snake\'s mouth opened wide. When the spear was close enough, the snake twisted around it and destroyed it. The spear shattered and there wasn`t even an explosion. Evan and the snake were completely intact.

"Who are you?" Reinier asked cautiously. He had never seen a spell like this before, moreover, Evan hadn`t even reached the "One-Pointed Star" yet. Reinier saw this clearly from the young man\'s "Pillar of Soul".

"I\'m... just a demon lover," Evan answered briefly and rushed towards Reinier.

"What?! Demons?! You\'re not from the "Demonic Tree\',  you said you are just trying to find them!" Reinier didn\'t understand what was going on. It all seemed absurd to him, but he didn\'t have time to figure it out. His opponent was already close.

Evan attacked sharply, but Reinier dodged, but now everything changed.

Whoosh.

Suddenly the snake extended and bit Reinier. The pain from the bite was eerie, and the snake tore off a piece of flesh, but Reinier managed to concentrate and quickly retreated.

"Hey, kid, this isn\'t fucking funny anymore. I\'ve never seen anything creepier before. What kind of snake is that?" Reinier said angrily and the next moment his spatial ring glowed.

A green pill appeared in his hands, which he immediately swallowed, as well as a blue bracelet on his arm.

Reinier didn\'t use "Catalysts", but he did have some powerful Magical Artifacts.

Whoosh.

Evan attacked again, but Reinier managed to dodge. The pill he had swallowed stopped the bleeding and greatly accelerated his regeneration. He could easily continue the fight.

The blue bracelet glowed and the next moment he folded his arms together. Hundreds of sparks began to appear, then Reinier separated his palms. A few seconds later, he had a two-meter-long trident in his hands, very similar to the one he had used to pierce the monster. Only, this one was even more powerful, thanks to the power of the artifact.

He threw it swiftly in Evan\'s direction. The raven tried to thwart this deadly attack and quickly fired the beam, but even a direct hit couldn\'t change its trajectory. Its power was far greater than the raven\'s beam.

Evan had no time to defend against this deadly attack. He cast an "Ice Veil", covering his hands with a layer of ice, and tried to defend himself against the trident.

Whoosh.

The trident hit its target, piercing the snake along with Evan. The young man flew a few meters back pierced by the trident and crashed into a tree. A moment later, because of the tremendous power of the trident, the tree fell to the ground with Evan, and Evan himself was barely breathing.

Luckily for him, the teeth of the trident hadn`t pierced his vital organs, but Evan\'s situation was terrifying. The snake had been destroyed, and he could barely stand on his own feet. Moreover, the one-eyed raven couldn\'t do anything to Reinier, he just wasn\'t strong enough to do it.

"Boy, you are some kind of a mystery. I\'m not going to lie, I\'m bursting with curiosity to know what that snake was, but I think it\'s better that this mystery goes with you to your grave!"

After these words, Reinier began casting one of his spells. He was intent on ending Evan once and for all.

At the same time, the young man was lying in a pool of his blood and drawing a sigil on the ground. This time he used the strongest weapon he could stand at the moment.

"Sigil of 70th Demon, Prince Seere - activation."
