CHAPTER 82

"It is obviously my spirit's ability to invade anyone's spirit realm, and break it. Don't call me overpowered now !", Rachel said.

"Ok, you win. You do have a strange ability, but this isn't your only ability right ? It felt that you were looking at me like you looked at a kid. It seemed that you could defeat me any moment.", Triela said. Triela honestly felt that gaze. Except Arata, Rachel gave everyone the same gaze.

"Hmm… that is because, that ability is deadly. Here, let me show you.", Rachel said, sensing that she would get triggered again. She decided to go into the city and pick a man. And then she severed its arms and then took out his heart.

"W..what the fuck did you do !? Didn't you just kill a person. Why… How !?", Triela was flustered. Arata and Shin were sitting around lazing while they were bickering around. Shin wasn't exactly surprised. These two people had become the shadows. They were probably on par with their grandfather.

"How do you say, we now fight….. To death.", Shin said to Arata. Shin would come with his all. He wanted to see how Arata fought completely. He still had a hidden trump card up his sleeve.

"Ok then. Let's go now.", Arata said to Shin and went to the training grounds. Shin knew Arata was dangerous but he did not kill for no reason. They were very rational beings. Shin started off by becoming invisible. In the night, this was very useful, as he did not cast a shadow. Arata did not become invisible right away and tried to counter Shin's attacks. But Shin was better at night. Arata also decided to become invisible now.

When Shin saw this, he was surprised. He did not expect Arata would also be having a thorough assassin skill. But now, Shin couldn't see Arata's attacks and retreated. It was truly scary for Shin. Right now, he could just give up but then he used his Trump card. A black shadow enveloped him and he became a shell. Arata slashed the dark shadow, but it passed right through it. Even though Shin was the black shadow, he was not getting hurt. Arata now waited for Shin to make a move. As Shin was now a bunch of black particles, he was practically invincible.

Then this black shadow wrapped around Arata. Arata knew it was bad news, so he tried escaping it but he couldn't. The black shadow followed him everywhere. Slowly Arata started feeling drowsy. What was even happening?

Finally, Arata decided to stop moving and observe what was happening. Then he realized it. Arata was inhaling those black particles ! What happened to Shin, Arata thought. Arata decided to move extremely fast without breathing, so that even Shin couldn't follow him. And it worked. Then Arata decided to change some part of his orb into water and splashed it on Shin. Shin returned back to his original form then, but he looked exhausted and pale, and he fainted.

After all this, they decided to go and grab dinner, as it was getting late. Shin was actually very strong but it was really difficult for him to beat through his third ability. Actually, the black dust mode was supposed to take down big animals like elephants in a second by poisoning and was very strong, and Shin couldn't control it. But Arata was immune to it, due to his top level cultivation. He was going to use it later in the tournament as a trump card, as it could be countered fairly easily, it was like a double edged sword.

"Shin is a genius ! He unlocked his third ability !", Triela said. As Shin had just got it, she did not know about it until now. In their group, only Triela did not have the third ability.

"My spirit said, it has only three abilities.", Triela said.

"Yes, he is not an official spirit. It is a part demon.", Rachel said. Brain had told her about this after the fight. That it's mother was a demon and father was a spirit.

"So, what are demons then ?", Triela asked the obvious question.
