Grim Reaper in the Apocalypse: Reaping Immortals-Chapter 375: Temporary Specialist

Instead of feeling dread and fear at the betrayal of trust from Atlan, Ninth and the rest of the team felt hope.

They should be wondering if Atlan was even a human being at this point. After all, he was able to have more than one LifeSkill and all of his LifeSkills had the power to wipe out an entire horde of Canzers all by himself. Experience exclusive tales on novelbuddy

It was a fearsome kind of strength, something that would make a human wonder if he was still a part of their race, or simply someone that was pretending to be one.

But in these dire times, Ninth and the others couldn’t help but put their trust and their faith in Atlan.

He could have let them die. If he wanted to keep his secret a secret for a long time, then he could have let the dragon kill them so that there wouldn’t be any witnesses as he revealed all his powers to fight the dragon for survival.

But instead, Atlan saved them and risked being called a heretic for it. This meant that Atlan himself wanted Ninth and her team to know about his true powers.

"Atlan…" Ninth uttered.

Atlan didn’t look back. "Don’t waste your energy. You have to focus on healing yourself back up."

Ninth nodded, and silence ensued before being broken.

"If we survive…we won’t tell anyone."

Atlan didn’t answer back, but on the inside, he was thankful for their discretion.

Now that he was facing his greatest opponent, this wasn’t the time to be pulling any kind of punches. He couldn’t worry about his powers being discovered by Ninth and the others. He had to focus solely on killing the Queen and trying to survive this encounter.

Case in point, it seemed as if he was getting the advantage against the Malificient Dragon Queen. But he knew that her strength was far more fearsome than this.

He could see her eyes. Those eyes weren’t someone afraid of their life. It was the eyes of someone who was observing everything in her surroundings, trying to find an opening that she could use to destroy the annoying puppets that kept trying to kill her.

Atlan knew that he had to focus and control his puppets better.

’This is getting ridiculous,’ said the Malificient Dragon Queen. ’If you can have puppets of your own, then so can I…’

The dragon raised her head in the sky and opened its maws, bringing with it an intense screech that made everyone cover their ears.

Atlan felt as if his entire being was shaken by that scream. His soul was trembling.

He didn’t have to know what it was to know that whatever the Malificient Dragon Queen did was dangerous.

Before he could try and figure out what was happening, he suddenly heard the sound of wings flapping in the distance.

There, amid the mountain ranges and the thick luscious forest, three new red dragons emerged from the horizon, each having the same strength and aura as the Dragon Queen.

"Careful, Atlan…it can regenerate its wounds…and summon clones…it’s an anomaly…," Ninth warned.

Atlan wondered about that too. After all, the damage done by the Apocalyptic Hellfire was already being healed at an extremely fast rate. The dragon’s body was slowly growing back its scales, to the point that it would only take a few seconds before it was back in its prime state.

His puppets continued to pester the original dragon, using their LifeSkills and perfect coordination to deal enough damage to the dragon to prevent her from going anywhere.

But with the addition of three new dragons in the fight, Atlan knew that the balance of the fight would quickly tip toward the Queen’s direction. He had to do something.

"Can I use my powers now?" Atlan asked the three good fairies.

The three blobs of light nodded their heads, permitting him to fight the dragon using the powers that they gave him.

Atlan raised his magical sword and shield, bringing with it an intense light that almost blinded everything that looked at it.

As the power emerged from the cold steel of the blade, some of it leaked out into the air and quickly got absorbed by Atlan.

He felt his powers increase from the Student realm, to the Pre-Intern realm, to the Intern realm, and finally to the Specialist realm.

Ninth and her team watched on in shock as they felt Atlan’s power rise to their levels. This was another surprising feat because this was supposed to be impossible.

A summoner’s weakness was that they were physically weak. But Atlan proved that wrong.

He became even stronger than his puppets!

And they simply couldn’t attribute it to the strange and mystical sword and shield he wielded. After all, no kind of weapon could increase a Savior’s strength from the Student level all the way to the Specialist realm. That was simply impossible.

Of course, everything was only possible because the three good fairies were beings of powers that were on the same level as the Queen itself.

However, for some reason, Atlan couldn’t understand, they didn’t want to fight the Queen at all.

They said that it was not their destiny to defeat her.

So, they instead pooled all of their strength and lent it to Atlan to use. But of course, if he was a normal human, this would have been impossible. But they found that because of his strange death powers, he could absorb their powers and use them to nurture himself into the Specialist realm.

Of course, this was only temporary and only lasted until the Queen was dead.

For Atlan, this was enough.

He bent his legs and jumped into the air, sending his body flying like a bullet toward the Malificient Dragon Queen in the skies.

He had his sword pointed towards the Queen’s heart, ready to pierce it and kill her once and for all.

But of course, the Queen knew about the sword and shield. It was part of the prophecy after all. She would be stupid to disregard its threat to her life.

So, she quickly used all her strength and shook off the humanoid puppets that tried to hold her in place.

Then, she spat out a sphere made out of void and destruction towards Atlan’s face.
