The Author's POV

Chapter 742

'Aren't they overreacting a little?'

The way the three of them were looking at Octavious was rather odd. It was as if they were staring at some sort of god.

'I wonder what reaction they'll have when I do the same...'

I was just about to do that when I suddenly stopped and my eyes opened wide.

'Why does his body possess the Akashic Laws… and why can I feel them?'

My gaze was fixed on the murky white substance that was enveloping Octavious. It gave me a very familiar feeling.

Boom—!

I put very little pressure on the ground as the area beneath me began to collapse into a crater. When I looked up, Octavious was staring at me with a blank expression on his face.

The strength he was exerting was indeed rank, but the most shocking part was the white mist that was covering his body.

It made his power soar all the way toward rank.

Boom—!

He wasn't a man of many words.

Arching his back, he threw a fist my way, splitting the air in the process. I took a look down at his approaching fist, and then I punched out with the same level of strength as he had.

…I needed to get a better grasp of his strength and the white mist that was covering his body. I had a feeling that I was about to unearth a very big secret.

The aftermath of our two fists colliding was anything but beautiful. The warehouse collapsed, completely destroying the ground beneath it.

Octavious showed a surprised look at the fact that I was able to block the attack and threw another fist. I retaliated in kind.

Booom—!

I took a few steps back and stared at my hand, which was covered in a cloudy white substance. For some reason, in that collusion, small parts of it entered my body.

'This power…'

I wasn't wrong. This was indeed the Akashic law, and my eyes couldn't help but widen at the realization.

'Why does Octavious have this sort of power? …Shouldn't it just be Kevin who can wield such power?'

The more I reflected on it, the more concerned I became about the situation. Things were going in a direction that was completely outside my expectations.

"Is this really all you have?"

Octavious's voice rang from behind me, and I felt a powerful blow land on the right side of my abdomen. Shortly after, my vision blurred, and I seemed to have crashed against the remains of the warehouse.

Despite that, I was in no major pain. If anything, my heart hurt after seeing the state that my warehouse was in.

I slowly stood up and patted my body clean.

'Damned bastard.'
