Single Wish: Rise Of The Omniscient Paragon

Melissa, Triple X, and Fatty Black Bonez did not know how to respond to the fact that a tier 4 ran away from Corey, a tier 2.

They could not believe it.

In fact, their entire being did not want to believe it.

It just sounded so ridiculous, and their minds instinctively made up reasons or excuses as to how Corey was able to accomplish such a feat.

They came to the conclusion that it was either Corey had an extremely powerful skill or weapon, or the wish he made was a wish that granted him an unimaginable power.

Having come up with this conclusion, the minds of Melissa, Triple X, and Fatty Black Bonez were at ease.

The thought of a tier 2 having the physical strength and capabilities to kill a tier 4 was highly frightening to them.

'He's like Divine. They're both monsters.'

This thought went through the minds of the trio, and they were extremely curious about the skills Corey had and the wish he made.

Although they wanted to ask what his wish was, they didn't. If they asked and Corey told them, they would have to tell Corey what their wishes were.

"By the way, where's Selene, Dave, and Kiefer?"

Corey asked, and just as he was about to look around, he sensed a presence a few meters away from him.

"We're here."

A charming and indifferent female voice flowed into the ears of Corey, Fatty Black Bonez, Melissa, and Triple X.

They all turned to the source, and they saw Selene walk toward them with a drunken Dave and a slightly dazed Kiefer.

Corey glanced at each of them with his gaze staying a little bit longer on Dave. He shifted his gaze, and he looked in the distance with a slight furrow of his brows.

"What are you looking at Smile Reaper?"

Melissa asked when she noticed Corey gaze into the distance. She had been observing Corey ever since she saw Corey come back with the arm and weapon of a tier 4.

So, noticing his gaze and slight frown as he looked into the distance, she was curious as to what the wonder kid of their group saw.

Corey glanced at her with a slight raise of his brows. Melissa rarely took the initiative to speak to him, but when he thought about it. He realized that it was not strange that she would suddenly develop an interest in him.

Ignoring his surprise and suspicions, Corey pointed to the northwestern part of the abandoned industrial district.

Specifically, the sky.

"That part of the sky is strange. It's abnormal."

Corey wished he could use his Eyes of Omniscience to observe the part of the sky he was looking at. He didn't know what was actually wrong with the sky, but his high perceptivity could sense a large amount of energy in that part of the sky.

To be precise, a large amount of mystic energy.

'Is a tier 4 or higher hiding there and watching us?'

Corey deeply frowned as this thought went through his mind.

When he thought about it, he realized that it wouldn't be surprising a mystic being would be watching them.

The clash of energies and destruction done to the abandoned industrial district was not minor, and the noise caused as a result of the battles was not quiet at all. A mystic being had high senses, and it wouldn't be surprising that a tier 4 or above would sense their fight.

Although they were in an abandoned industrial district, there was no way a mystic being with high senses would not be able to perceive the battle that unfolded.

Corey cursed himself for not thinking that their battle could be perceived.

He totally forgot to take into account that mystic beings nearby would be able to sense their battle, and as a result of his carelessness, a stealthy tier 4 or higher was most likely watching all their battles, and who knows what consequences they would face.

Corey was most especially worried about the unknown mystic being seeing his abilities. He used his fog manipulation abilities mainly not to allow his teammates and Dante's teammates to see him fight, but if the unknown being was a tier 5 with powerful ocular skills, then his abilities might become exposed.

'I was careless.'

Corey released a deep sigh as his mind thought of something worse.

If the unknown mystic being was a tier 5, they could also be in trouble.

He was absolutely sure that he and his teammates could not handle a tier 5, and the probability of them dying if the tier 5 decided to attack them was extremely high.

"Your senses are unnaturally sharp Smile Reaper. I can't believe you were able to notice my formations in the air."

These words flowed into Corey's ears, and Corey turned his head to Dave, who was looking at him with a surprised expression.

Corey looked at Dave for a second, and then his eyes moved to the strange part of the sky.

Without waiting for Corey to speak or give a reply, Dave snapped his fingers, and the strange part of the sky rippled.

Corey's eyes widened when he saw a strange translucent golden barrier filled with runes appear in the peculiar part of the sky.

He turned his head to the side, and he saw the same barrier surrounding the entire abandoned industrial district.

The entire abandoned industrial district!

Corey's eyes widened as he stared at the extremely large barrier with a stunned expression.

"I knew you guys had forgotten that other mystic beings would be able to sense the fight here, so I set up an array and various formations around the entire industrial district."

"If I didn't, we would either be dead, or our fates would be worse than death."

Dave spoke nonchalantly, then took in a huge gulp from his wine flask and released a satisfied sigh.

Corey took a while before his shock reduced. He stared at Dave with a strange gaze and hidden thoughts for a few seconds, and then he looked at Kiefer before looking at Selene.

"Is she dead?"

Selene nodded while giving Dave a short glance.

Corey noticed that, and he raised his brows.

He knew that Selene was telling the truth since he would immediately sense the moment Selene was telling a lie.

Although he was curious as to why she glanced at Dave, he decided not to ask.

"Let's pick up Rosa, then we meet up with Master." As Corey spoke, he looked at Melissa, then Triple X.

He paused, and then his gaze landed on Fatty Black Bonez, who looked at him with raised brows.

"Then we think of a way to release Divine from prison."

Corey said with a slight grin, and Fatty Black Bonez's eyes shone.
