Chapter 389 Flicker
"Sunny!" Seki turned around quickly, her heart skipping a beat as she saw a tall man walking toward them.
He was very handsome, with a calm smile on his face. He looked like he was just taking a walk in the park, not stepping into a dangerous fight.
For a moment, she felt a glimmer of hope. The way he carried himself, so confident and casual, made it seem like he was in complete control of the situation.
"Nobu-san, I was wondering why it was taking you so long," Reign chuckled as he approached. "But to think you lost your arm." His tone was light, almost amused, despite the serious situation.
Normally, Nobu would have felt insulted by those words.
But right now, he was just relieved. Reign's presence gave them a glimmer of hope.
With him here, maybe—just maybe—they had a chance to turn the tide of this battle if they work together.
"Sunny, we need your help," Nobu said, his voice strained but hopeful. "We're up against a Tier 1 hunter"
Reign's grin grew as he looked around, his eyes locking with Tiara's.
"Looks like I showed up just in time," he said with a smile. "I've been wanting to fight a Tier 1 hunter. The last one I fought ran off before we could have a real fight."
Tiara's eyes narrowed as she studied her opponent's relaxed stance.
"You think you can take me on? Stop lying," she sneered, her voice dripping with skepticism.
She didn't believe he had actually fought a Tier 1 hunter before. In her mind, a Tier 1 hunter wouldn't run away—after all, they were the best of the best.
"You can believe what you want, but I advise you not to overestimate yourself," Reign responded with a casual shrug.
He took a step forward, standing with no visible defenses. Tiara's sharp eyes noticed the gaps in his defense, making him look vulnerable.
In her mind, this should be an easy kill. However, for some reason, she found Reign annoying.
His overly confident attitude, as if treating the battle like a game, irked her.
It was the kind of arrogance that only someone with her level had the right to show. She wasn't used to being on the receiving end of it.
Her eyes narrowed slightly, her amusement fading. "You really think you can handle me with that attitude?" she asked, her tone a bit frustrated .
"I suppose it's to be expected from someone who doesn't know their limits." she added.
Who told her to act so audacious in front of him?
If there was one thing he excelled at, it was making his opponents die from frustration before finishing them off.
Tiara's face twisted with rage. She clenched her katana tightly, struggling to control her anger and regain her composure.
She took a deep breath, her chest rising and falling with a slow, hiss.
"Pulse Banshee Breathing Technique ... Resonant.! "
EEEKKKKK!
A loud, high-pitched scream burst from her mouth, filling the lobby with a painful, unending screech.
The sound was so sharp and powerful that it shattered the glass windows, sending shards flying everywhere.
Nobu and Seki clamped their hands over their ears, their faces contorted in pain. It felt like their eardrums might burst at any moment.
Sensing the danger, Seki quickly cast her healing ability. A green aura enveloped the three of them, intended to soothe and protect them from harm .
But when her power reached Reign, it was instantly canceled out because of his divine body.
He remained unaffected, standing calmly. The high pitched sound made his clothes vibrate, but other than that, he looked perfectly fine.
Meanwhile, Tiara's frustration grew after she saw his relaxed expression
She kept raising her voice, making the high-pitched scream even louder.
The noise became so intense that the walls started to crack, and the whole building shook violently.
Dust and debris fell from the ceiling, the very structure was protesting against the force of her attack.
Tiara's eyes narrowed as she observed Reign, expecting him to show some sign of discomfort against her attack.
To her shock, he remained completely unfazed and unbothered by the noise.
He casually picked at his ears with his fingers, removing some dirt. With a flick, he tossed it away, looking almost bored.
She was speechless. 'H— how is he not affected?'
