Chapter 62 The Son Who Killed While Dead
At the last second, Sato positioned both his hands in front of him and instantly barricaded the punch before it could make contact with his face.
After blocking it, Sato utilized the force of the attack to his advantage and flew out of the red space before disembarking on the ground.
\'That was close.\' Sato thought to himself while gazing at the red barrier space.
"You figured out my power in a short amount of time… I must commend your skill". Gigz voiced out before walking out of the barrier.
Sato sighed internally, \'How many seconds is the time interval Helix?\' Sato asked.
<<Correction…. There is no time interval. Opponent lacks the ability to use two skills at the same time, hence why the red barrier was put down for him to activate the other one.>>
\'Wait, so back there..\' Sato thought to himself as he came to realize, \'Before he punched me, he put up another barrier?\'.
<<Affirmative>>
\'Barrier magic? Who knew that was even a thing.\' Sato said before standing firm as he stared at Gigz.
"Did you lose your voice, or do you just don\'t know how to answer my question?" Gigz said with all the rings on his finger glowing.
"No, I heard you, I just didn\'t see the need to reply. I didn\'t think you\'d wanna speak to your son\'s killer." Sato voiced out.
Gigz immediately scowled after hearing what Sato said, "How dare you mock my son\'s death?!" He steamed.
Slamming his hand on the ground, which caused an enormous force of Lava to explode from the ground.
It was constructed into a huge wave that rose about 25ft in the air before it began to tumble on Sato\'s position.
"It\'s like this man just finds fault in everything I say!" Sato exclaimed, he took a huge leap back before yelling, "Predator!".
A huge force of dark thick dust wooshed out of his hand and filled in all of the Lava in a matter of minutes while Sato was still in mid-air.
Once the Lava had all been devoured, Sato landed on the ground and locked his fist which caused the dark mist to fade away.
<<Notice… magic essence acquired… skills obtained.

"Nice." Sato muttered, looking at his hand as lava began gushing from his hand and dripping on the ground.
Gigz and the audience watching, all had stunted expressions on their faces when they saw Sato swallow a 25ft Lava in one go.
"A…Are you a disaster-level monster?" Gigz asked with a bit of dread in his tone.
Vlad also noticed this and couldn\'t help but smile, "Looks like the kids know a few tricks." He said.
"Can we stop this now?" Sato yelled while looking at Vlad, "My business is with you!".
Vlad just stared and didn\'t utter a word.
"Don\'t ignore me!" Gigz yelled as charged straight at Sato.
Sato pointed his hand at Gigz and out of nowhere, lava rose from the ground with a huge pressure backing it up.
The lava instantly halted Gigz in his tracks, coercing him to move back as he observed the rise of the lava.
"He stole my skill." Gigz muttered to himself.
His eyes swayed from the lava and shifted to the hole that was unfurling up in the middle of the lava.
Sato walked out of the hole and the lava went back into the ground.
"I\'m truly sorry about what happened to your son, and I never meant to … kill him… but right now there\'s something serious heading here, and taking care of that could save many more lives." Sato consoled as he tried to convince Gigz.
Gigz was quiet for a while, cracking his brain on whether he should take Sato\'s offer or not.
He was still feeling a lot of sorrow about his son\'s death and standing in front of him was the killer but yet… he didn\'t feel attacking him was the right thing to do.
"Law 213 of the white order, death caused by accident, the guilty person shall be imprisoned for 2 months and charged with a fee of 300 silver coins." Gigz recited with eyes nearly close to tears.
With a warm smile, Sato replied, "I\'ll gladly accept my punishment.".
Gigz looked away and walked toward his son who was laying on the ground a few feet from where Sato was.
He went to his knees and grabbed Luke\'s hand before setting it on his forehead, "I tried to take revenge for your death… you didn\'t deserve this.
Just a few more months and you would have been married to the Duke\'s daughter and even been appointed second in command of the forever knights… I\'m sorry you never had the chance to fulfill your dreams." Gigz sobbed.
Sato, who was watching Gigz talk to his son, shifted his attention away from there toward Vlad.
Vlad stared down for a while and slowly walked away from the scene and back into his mansion.
Even those who came to watch the battle between Sato and Luke were already confused but they still chose to stay.
Sato gave out a small smile, "looks like he\'s already aware of what is going on." He muttered to himself before closing his eyes.
While his eyes were closed, Sato suddenly sensed a massive wave of magic energy and immediately opened his eyes.
"Get away from him!" Sato yelled at Gigz.
Luke\'s hand suddenly moved and grabbed Gigz\'s neck.
"Son?" Gigz called out puzzledly
Before anyone could react, Gigz had already been completely dried up to the extent that only his bone was visible.
There was nothing in Gigz\'s body and this resulted in his bones dismantling and scattering on the ground.
With both his blood and organs falling alongside the Gigz\'z bone.
The whole place went quiet for a while before a female audience screamed.
"Ahhhhhhhhh! "
