Death… And Me Chapter 2757: Savage

Chapter 2757: Savage

Water and Lightning Elements spread everywhere, causing even small ripples in space to appear. For that to happen in the Saint Realm showed that both attacks were truly powerful. Soon, blood appeared and spread almost as fast as the Water and Lightning Elements.
As the truth dawned on them, a chilling realization took hold. The sheer volume of blood, a stark contrast to the confines of a humanoid body, could only have one origin-the Leviathan, Jokios. Their Divine Senses, in a unanimous accord, confirmed their grim discovery.
Jokios had a huge hole in his mandible that exited on the other side. His mouth was pretty much gone. Even his body behind was severely injured, showing that the attack he received didn't stop after taking his mouth away. Jokios then slowly sank, reaching the bottom of the arena a few seconds later. He was completely unconscious and didn't seem he would live for much longer.
"Jokios!" Jokios father, one of the elders, immediately entered the arena to rescue his kid. On the other side, Sonzei looked at himself, unable to believe he had just done that. In that last moment, his Lightning and Water Element merged with Jokios' instead of clashing against it. Both attacks then turned against Jokios himself, leaving him powerless to defend. That happened because of Jokios's own mistake. Jokios was so confident in his bloodline power that he thought it was more than enough to win. That left a gap in his own control over his Elements, which you would rarely see. One could call it a side effect of having lived in this Dimensional Realm his entire life.
Of course, just that gap wasn't enough for someone to use Jokios Elements against him. It was because Roan had trained Sonzei that he could achieve this result. Roan mentioned thousands of times. The Leviathans would absolutely underestimate him, so he only had to use it against them.
But, above all, Sonzei was paired with disciples of the System Sect day after day, especially those with Lightning and Water Element Affinities. The number of times he almost died couldn't even be counted anymore. In Roan's hellish training, which lacked time, the only way to improve fast enough was to know he could die at any moment.
Until the battle started, Sonzei never came to understand just how much he improved. Why? Because he lost, lost, lost, lost, lost, and lost even more against the disciples of the System Sect. Even up to the last day, he continued to lose. That's why he seemed to lack so much confidence.
His opponents in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm only changed when he managed to defeat them. Yet, the best he was able to do was to defeat a Soul Transformation Realm Peak Stage expert. The Saint Realm Initial Stage guy who fought him after that trashed him every single time until the training time was over in the accelerated time. Sonzei is in the Late Stage of the same Saint Realm, so you can imagine his feelings. He was absolutely no match for the guy.
One shall not underestimate the system sect experts as long as Roan is in charge of everyone's training.
Jokios, who had no experience fighting anything other than other Leviathans, had no chance against Sonzei. Jokios's meaningless pride in his bloodline only made things easier for Sonzei.
In the arena, Jokios's father tried to stabilize Jokios's situation, but the damage was too deep. He then turned to Sonzei with a murderous expression. "I'll kill yo-"
Yet, before he finished his words, another voice appeared on his side. "Oh! Roan truly doesn't know how to hold back, does he? Sonzei made quite a big mess of this little guy. I'll need a nutrient pill." It was Rean who also came into the arena, giving Jokios one of the nutrient pills Roan made.
It happened a few times in the past when Rean healed others. When the damage was too big, just the Instant Recovery skill wasn't enough. There was a need for a source from where the flesh and bones would gather their nutrients from. That's the nutrient pills Roan made. It was quite simple and effective with Rean's Instant Recovery.
Jokios's father froze for a moment, not knowing when Rean even appeared. However, he quickly recovered and tried to push Rean away... when he noticed something unbelievable. His son's body began to recover at an extremely fast speed. He could see all the bones and flesh to reform with his eyes. Naturally, the idea of pushing Rean away disappeared altogether.
A few minutes later, Jokios's body was completely recovered. No one could find any flaw with their Divine Senses. Jokios, in turn, woke a few seconds later, feeling somewhat dizzy. "W- What happened?"
His father sighed in relief and looked at Rean. "Don't think I'm thank you for this. He became like that because of your companion."
Rean shrugged his shoulders. "I also didn't expect the results to be so one-sided. Besides, I couldn't really let a pure-blooded Leviathan die here, right? That would turn us into public enemies number one."
The word 'one-sided' instantly struck the minds of all Leviathans watching the arena.
"Impossible!" Finally, someone shouted out.
"They must have cheated!" another one complained.
"Capture them and have them tell the truth!" more voices arose.
However, it only lasted a few seconds before Floquei's voice echoed like thunder. "Silence!"
As the leader of the Leviathans, no one dared to go against him.
Floquei then entered the arena with a few other elders, including Olvris. Their expressions weren't very good. However, they were all Divinity Realm experts. How could they not know what happened in the arena? They saw the exact moment Sonzei used Jokios's own Elements against him clearly.
"There was no cheating," Floquei spoke, although he wasn't very happy to do so. "Do you truly think they could have hidden something from our senses, Divinity Realm senses?"
The leviathans who first spoke about cheating looked away.
Floquei continued, looking at Sonzei this time. "Still, your display of power was beyond what we could expect. Are you some hidden genius from the outside world that happens to have acquired our bloodline?"
Sonzei was taken aback. "Me? Genius?" He quickly shook his head. "Before the battle, I was being utterly and completely trashed by a Saint Realm Initial Stage cultivator from senior Roan's Dimensional Realm. I'm no genius. Do you think this fight was one-sided? No, compared to how I kept losing while senior Roan trained me, this fight was nothing. I'm not someone worth mentioning at all."
The Leviathans' mouths twitched. Sonzei... was trashed by lower realm opponents before the battle? Doesn't that mean Jokios was even worse then?
"At least you know your worth at this point in time," said Roan as he entered the arena right after, waving his hand and making over one hundred cultivators of the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm appear around him. "You probably think he is trying to make fun of you, right? No, that's not the case. The problem with you all is very simple. You have closed yourselves in this Dimensional Realm for way too long. Here I have 100 disciples of my System Sect, and I wouldn't exactly call them the most talented ones either. You can test them however you like. If even one of them loses to a Leviathan in the same cultivation realm, then I will kneel down
and apologize."
'He is truly savage...' Rean couldn't help but think.
