UNLIMITED SPEED

131 131. PARTY

"What have I stepped into?," Noah frowned, while Inspecting the source of the pressure on his arms.

A blank expression immediately appeared on Noah's face, when his eyes found two men radiating peak tier 2 power, resting on his arms with their swords.

They too looked dumbfounded as their weapons were supposed to clash not land on a naked man's body.

Noah's eyes soon found that there were four other humans, and one of them, who was a middle-aged man, had power in the lower stage of tier 3.

Energy crackled around Noah's body, as he took only one step forward, his figure directly vanishing from that area while he left a long yellow streak.

It seemed like he had teleported, but in truth he was simply too fast.

A significant amount of essence vanished from his core, but he didn't care about that, after all his knew the reason behind it.

Instead, he stood unmoving, while his mind rushed through thoughts. 'I've screwed up,' Noah grabbed his hair.

'They've seen my face. I ran in front of them,' Noah frowned. 'It's my fault, but can i let them be?. No. They'll inform everyone about their sightings. I might even encounter them later In the future,' Noah's thoughts went on, but really only lasted a few instants.

A dark expression appeared on Noah's face after few more seconds. He repositioned his body, facing the direction he came from, this was because he didn't want to arrive at a different place.

Without even bothering to cover his nakedness, Noah took a step forward at his full speed, his figure vanishing again.

A few minutes earlier....

Two men sparred in a clearing inside the forest. Four others, two girls and two men, simply spectating their spar.

Among the six in total, five of them radiated power In the peak of tier 2, while the last person held power in tier 3.

"Do not forget to always take a step back to watch his next move!," The middle aged man shouted while circling the sparring duo.

The six of them belonged to a small guild called the Evergraze. They had ventured into this particular forest for search of beasts, and Hendo being the one assigned to the youngsters had to take care of them, and also train them.

"Do you always have to take that side step? It's a wasteful movement, it just slows down your reaction time!," Hendo shouted at one of the two men who managed to nod his head, but was punched by his opponent for his distraction.

Hendo rubbed his temples from mild frustration, although he had been assigned to them as a trainer, he couldn't take it anymore.

"Two weeks," Hendo muttered, "Two weeks and he has only managed to get beaten more," he glanced at the weakest link of his five trainees.

"If not for our shortage of members, I would have sent him on his way by now," He sighed, when suddenly both men, jumped back, to take a few seconds breather, then shot forward at each other, their weapons raised to bring down the other.

But that never happened. To the shock of all six individuals, a man in his birthday suit suddenly appeared between the two men, his arms stopping their weapons.

Hendo could only stare in pure astonishment, while he Inspected the surprisingly beautiful individual.

Another wave of surprise spread in his mind when he found out that he couldn't gauge the strength of this person, but he remained certain that he was in tier 3.

Hendo planned to move, when the individual suddenly began to crackle with intense electrical enegy, his figure vanishing a few Instants later, an Incredibly bright yellow streak stretching behind him.

No words could describe the shock of all six Individuals.

'What the actual fuck just happened,' Hendo screamed, his figure still unmoving. Everything had happened so fast, he didn't have time to react.

A few seconds of heavy silence passed before the whole group understood what just happened went on alert.

Hendo was about to call them to himself, when a bright yellow light appeared in their midst, the Individual had returned.

Fear and confusion filled the minds of the tier 2's. They could already tell that their power wouldn't be nearly enough to take down the beautiful man.

The individual stood unmoving, his face pointed at the ground, while his long white hair covered a significant portion of it, but they all could still see his face.

Hendo planned to talk since his experience told him that engaging the Individual was a bad idea.

"Did you see my face?," The man's voice suddenly spread, causing intense shivers to run down the spines of the tier 2 cultivators, but Hendo stood his ground.

Truth be told, felt at loss of what to do. The tone of the question wasn't in anyway hostile, but it hinted at a possible dangerous turn of events.

"Good day-," Hendo was cut short by the individual's sigh.

"I'm sorry. I truly would have loved to avoid this, but i have to keep my identity a secret," Ice began to spread beneath the individuals body that surprisingly glistened in the sunlight.

Hendo felt another wave of shock at the rare affinity, but he had to do something.

"You do not have to do anything drastic. We promise to not say a word about out encounter with you," Hendo stalled, while his mind seeped into his dimensional ring searching for something which he immediately found.

No response came from the white haired man, a slight frown flashing on Hendo's face.

"We can always take a oath?," Hendo smiled, his mind activating his communication amulet, then he sent a distress signal to the receiver.

Noah couldn't help but raise his head at the man's words, but he eventually sighed. He could sense that the man was up to something, so he moved.

Noah's soul core spun, as essence moved to activate a skill.

[Frozen Touch[Active]: When activated your hands gain the unique attribute "Frost", and are capable of freezing anything they touch as long as it doesn't have cold resistance higher than the users.

Noah's environment Instantly slowed down, while he walked towards the middle aged man, afterimages forming behind him, since he utilized his speed, but in its barest minimum.

Noah totally ignored the tier 2's, s d didn't even bother to check their name's as stood behind the middle-aged man.

"I'm truly sorry," he whispered, then his right hand grabbed the side of the man's face, his entire figure Instantly turning to ice.

Noah immediately smashed the ice statute, pieces of the man's body, which were now frozen flying everywhere.

A scream spread out, as terror gripped the minds of all five remaining cultivators, as they began to run in the same direction, practically falling over each other in fear.

Noah could only shake his head at that point, while ice spread from beneath his feet, instantly catching up to the scrambling group of five.

They couldn't react when the ice spread beneath them, even going on for a few ten meters. Then an instant later, jagged pillars of ice shot up, impaling them in the process. The light of life Instantly vanishing from their eyes before they could feel the pain.

Noah stood in silence. His eyes focused on the dead bodies of the five cultivator's, their bodies having been raised around a meter by the spikes, while red blood poured out of their large wounds.

Noah snapped out of his daze when a orange spherical object shot out of the shattered mould of ice beside him.

He stored the mana core without bothering to Inspect it. He felt bad for killing the party, but it had to be done.

One after the other, Noah removed the rings on the tier 2 cultivators. His ice had destroyed the middle aged man's ring, so he couldn't access it.

Noah found a few things in the rings but they weren't really valuable. Nevertheless, he managed to find a set of clothes, and a small map, which he didn't hesitate to take, the rest were just edible things, which he also stored in his inventory.

A few minutes later Noah found himself sporting a green shirt and ash trouser, and on top of them was a orange garment, that flickered with mild inscriptions.

With that done, Noah took another step forward, this time he limited his speed to around twenty percent, as he didn't want to use too much essence.

Needless to say, his figure vanished, leaving a yellow streak; but not before he questioned the system regarding what just happened.
