The Author's POV
Chapter 531
'The chip inside of my head? …What is he talking about?'
I always used the chip inside of my head.
In the split second that 'Eyes of Chronos' was activated, I wouldn't have been able to think if it weren't for the chip.
Was there another function of the chip that I did not know about? ...If there was, I wasn't aware of it.
It was then that the other me spoke. My attention once again shifted.
'Pay attention one more time.'
With his words fading, the Duke's body stumbled backward.
This came as a result of the previous punch.
As he stabilized his body, there was no longer any look of shock on his face, and in its place was an impassive and unreadable expression.
In front of the silent audience, he attempted to keep a straight face.
His figure disappeared once more as he expanded his wings, casting a large shadow over the arena. This time, his movements were clearly different. It was a lot faster than before.
But…
Bang-!
The results were the same.
"Huaaakk!"
Casually elbowing the right side, the Duke's body reappeared. It was only a casual elbow, but it was that casual elbow that caused his eyes to widen and his stomach to cave in.
A glob of spittle flew towards my face, but my face remained unchanged.
'Did you manage to see?'
The echo of his voice reverberated throughout my mind.
Finding it difficult to digest what had happened, it took a while for me to answer back.
But I eventually did.
'…I have.'
While the answer was quite easy, it was the concept that I found difficult to grasp. Or even accept it as something that a human was remotely possible of achieving...
'Observe everything. From muscle movement to the direction that feet and bodies point, and eye movement. Connecting everything together...'
Lowering my hand, I pressed my thumb against the hilt of my sword.
The moment I did that, the Duke once again decided to move.
But…
Click-!
Shifting my body ever so slightly toward the right, a subtle clicking sound resonated throughout the arena.
Following the sound, the whole arena froze as the Duke's figure once again materialized in front of me.
A gaping hole appeared on the right side of his chest.
'...You will be able to predict their movements.'
Drip. Drip.
It was only the sound of blood dripping on the ground that echoed throughout the arena.
Drip. Drip. Drip.
Trying to comprehend what had happened, the Duke's head rose and fell repeatedly as he stared at his right chest.
Throughout the silence, my mouth opened.
"…What a pity."
