Pause System: Harem In The Apocalypse-130 Chapter 129

Gray leapt from the platform, slashing and thrusting his blade countless times before landing.

A druid wolf's head was impaled by the edge of his blade upon landing.

[You have slain a Druid wolf]

'Mute all notifications.'

[Muted.]

He pulled the sword from the ground in an instant, and unleashed unforeseeable strikes at the wolves as they drew nearer.

Their bodies were slashed to pieces.

Gray paused the resorption of their organs before they were reabsorbed back into the ground.

Using them as stepping stones, he leapt around, from spot to spot, killing more and more of the druid wolves.

The mark felt amazing, as if time were slowing down.

His sword was cutting through like butter.

He kept swinging and swinging, slashing at slashing at every wooden thing he could see.

Before he had even realised it, he had cleared all of the druid wolves in his area.

With a glance towards Delta, he could see that she was doing the same, taking them out using her flames.

The flames weren't spreading.

As she swung her sword, towards the nearest one, his eyes widened.

[Pause Step: Level 2]

Delta felt chills go down her spine, as she was suddenly caught in a princess carry by Gray and propelled away with him.

She was in the middle of a sword swing so it had caught her off guard.

'When did he-'

She was interrupted as a large shadow suddenly passed from behind them.

Even with her flaming irises active, she had barely been able to catch the movement.

The flaming irises worked in a way that it allowed her to see through the dark and improved her visual acuity and cognition by bounds. f𝚛e𝚎𝘄𝒆𝚋𝚗𝚘ѵ𝑒𝚕.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Gray came to a stop on top of a platform which the other druid wolves couldn't reach before looking around.

A shadowy silhouette could be seen moving around them at high speed as it circled them through the wood's.

It moved so fast, that it's silhouette was almost blurry.

"Thoughts on what that is?" She asked.

Gray put her down on the platform, before leaping off of it, impaling the druid wolf which he landed on.

"Don't know." He said.

Swinging his sword towards the other three remaining wolves.

"But it doesn't matter-"

From his blind spot, the shadow suddenly leapt out from the jungles woods towards him.

It must have thought that he couldn't see it because it was night.

Not to mention, Gray's attention was turned to the other three druid wolf's, it was the perfect opportunity.

With its fanged mouth, the size of Gray's entire upper torso, inches away from Gray's head, ready to take him out before he could even process what had happened.

But instead of that – It was left with nothing but surprise as the heel of a kick dug into its eyes from the side.

By the short time it took for it to position its legs to leap away, it was already too late.

*Slash* *Spurt*

Blood gushed, out from said creature as it's head flopped to the floor.

Delta was dumbfounded. She could barely keep up with it's movements and yet – he killed it in a little over a second.

The giant head of a large wolf could be seen laying on the ground. This one wasn't being absorbed in.

"Let's go." Said Gray as he turned to her.

Not a single scratch was on him.

She could finally see it, just how he managed to take out the horned king on his own.

Without saying anything else, she followed behind, avoiding the pieces of organs scattered and halted across the air around them.

To her surprise however, Gray suddenly collapsed onto the floor.

She quickly made her way to him with worry that he had been bitten by something poisonous, only to watch as the mark faded away from his forehead.

"Oh right, I forgot about this after effect..." He muttered, struggling to get up.

His muscles weren't responding.

He wasn't exactly sure how long it would take either.

To Gray's surprise, he was suddenly lifted up by Delta who wrapped his arm around her shoulder.

"Let's keep moving." She said as she stared ahead.

Gray could have just bought a health potion and drank it, but he was trying to save up on money, the restoration elixir took 500 leaving him with only 300.

If he bought the cheapest potion, it would leave him with 200 still. And it wasn't worth it since he was only test-running the mark of the king.

For him it was worth it though, since he got to see it's effects after all.

"You might want to hurry too, those organs won't stay frozen forever, there's a timer which will end soon." He said.

The two of them continued to move throughout the jungle, after a few minutes, Gray could finally move again.

A few more hours had passed since their last battle but that didn't stop them.

They continued to travel, in directions of the giant walls or so Gray claimed. 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚

In terms of danger, they had many close calls within the hours.

A small venomous looking spider, landed on Delta's shoulder. It was burnt to a crisp shortly after however, as she had coated herself in dark flames.

Meanwhile, anything that was so much as detected or touched by Gray, would be halted in the air, as if it was frozen in time.

Whilst walking behind him, she almost ended up colliding against a centipede which had fallen on his hair.

Fortunately, she was shorted than him, so she ended up walking right beneath it.

Things were going good for a while but things were starting to go downhill. Through the top of one of the trees, they rested,

They were currently dealing with the biggest problem yet.

Food.

"There should be some sort of fruit or edible insect around here..." Gray muttered as he looked around. "What the hell kind of jungle is this? Only monsters, poisonous plants or insects so far?"
