Single Wish: Rise Of The Omniscient Paragon

Silence

Not a single sound could be heard from the battlefield as everybody stood in shock and fear seeing another tier 2 creature before them.

They had already felt how powerful the flames of the bird of oblivion were and just the thought of it sent shivers down their spines.

Battling the bird of oblivion was already so difficult in the sense that if their response was slow, there would definitely be casualties.

But now, there was another tier 2 monster and the worst part of it?

The abilities of the tier 2 Smiley were unknown to them!

"Corey!

What the hell is going on?!!"

Mrs. Ashley shouted with an extremely worried expression.

Her previous words of being calm in battle were completely forgotten by her and it was not her fault since Corey's plan regarding the bird of oblivion and the things he told her were working perfectly.

She was already 95% sure they would be able to kill the bird of oblivion since everything was going according to plan but now much to her shock and horror, another tier 2 monster appeared from the portal the bird of oblivion conjured.

This was not according to the plan at all!!

"Fuck I don't know!!

I'm the most confused out of y'all!!!

Fuck!!!"

Corey cursed endlessly as his mind was in endless turmoil seeing the appearance of the tier 2 Smiley.

This was not meant to happen at all.

A tier 2 monster was never meant to appear from the portal.

Lots of Tier 0 and Tier 1 Smileys were meant to appear from the portal, and after they appeared from the portal, Mrs. Ashley and her subordinates would defend against the attacks of the Smileys, while he would attack the bird of the oblivion because the bird would be more weakened after conjuring the portal.

It was mainly because the bird would be weakened after conjuring the portal he allowed it to fully conjure the portal.

All of this was what he found out after the uncountable deaths he experienced against the bird of oblivion in The Library Of Records and it was because of his confidence in Record that he did not expect any surprises during this fight.

'What is happening?

Why is it that in The Library Of Records it was tier 1 and tier 0 Smileys that came out of the portal but now it's a tier 2 Smiley?'

The gears in Corey's mind spun rapidly as he tried to figure out why there was such a huge error in Record and three seconds later, something clicked in his mind as he looked at the tier 2 Smiley.

'Is it because I've never recorded a tier 2 Smiley before that Record could not summon a tier 2 Smiley during my fight with the three-headed chicken?'

The more Corey had this thought, the more he realized that there was a very high chance that he was right.

Though the fact that he was right did not grant him relief or happiness, instead it caused a frown to appear on his face, because if he was 100% right, then that means he had just figured out a major issue with Record and he could not be 100% confident in it anymore.

"Corey! What do we do?!"

Mrs. Ashley who rarely lost her cool was feeling nervous seeing Corey standing still without saying anything.

'If you don't have a way to handle this situation then I'll be forced to leave this place without all of you.'

She thought with a conflicted expression while rubbing the same palm sized circular object she held during Corey's battle with Kyle.

Meanwhile Corey was brought out of his thoughts hearing Mrs. Ashley shout. He looked at the tier 2 Smiley which was much, much bigger than a Black Smiley.

Assuming the only difference between it and a Black Smiley was the physique, then maybe Corey might not be so apprehensive. But when he saw the chest armor and the giant sword the tier 2 Smiley was holding in his right hand, his apprehension increased slightly.

As he was observing the tier 2 Smiley which had the most disgusting smile he had ever seen, he noticed the tier 2 Smiley look at the bird of oblivion and Corey could see a change in it's expression, it was fearful.

Meanwhile the bird of oblivion just glanced at it coldly and gestured with it's right wing towards Corey and the group, no words or sounds were spoken but what it wanted was as clear as day.

The tier 2 creature glanced at Corey's group before it turned back to the bird of oblivion and nodded.

Corey seeing that squinted his eyes slightly then he spoke loudly:

"The plan will still be the same as usual!

You guys will need to hold off against the tier 2 monster on your own while I try to defeat the bird of oblivion!"

"What do you mean hold off against that thing?!

That's a tier 2 monster you bastard!!"

Corey looked at Luke who just spoke and his eyes became cold.

He ignored him then looked at Mrs. Ashley wanting to speak, but just as his lips parted, he was disturbed.

ROAARRRR!!!!

An extremely loud roar reverberated throughout the surroundings, even reaching deep into the academy causing everybody to cover their ears.

A few seconds passed and the roar ended.

Corey looked at the tier 2 Smiley wondering why it just roared but two seconds later, he found his answer.

ROARR!!

ROARRRR!!

ROAR!!!

A cacophony of roars resounded throughout the entire academy causing the faces of the entire group and Corey to become extremely pale.

"What the fuck?!"

Corey turned back and exclaimed as he felt the ground beneath him tremor and the cacophony of roars, grunts and various other sounds from the academy behind them.

"Corey?! What should we do now?!"

Mrs. Ashley asked as she tightened her palm around the circular object in her right hand.

"Fuck!"

Corey cursed as his danger sense whistled endlessly in his ears.

The tremors he could feel beneath him was increasing by the second making him wonder just how many monsters or probably Smileys was coming at them from the academy.

"We go with the same plan!"

Corey shouted with his eyes fixated on the bird of oblivion which had a look of exhaustion.

"Can you at least last one minute?!"

He asked with a loud voice, drastically reducing the time he had to defeat the bird of oblivion.

Normally he would need at least five minutes to kill the bird of oblivion without harming himself, so him reducing it to one minute was him putting a lot of pressure on his shoulders.

"One minute is too much!"

Mrs. Ashley unaware of how much time Corey actually needed to kill the weakened bird of oblivion, replied without hesitation and with confidence in her tone.

"The difference in stats between a tier 0 and tier 2 is immense. There's no way we can last up to one minute."

Corey's brows furrowed hearing the words of Mrs. Ashley.

If they could not last up to one minute then he didn't know what else to do. There was no way he could face the tier 2 Smiley on his own and allow Mrs. Ashley and her subordinates to face the bird of oblivion.

He would definitely not last up to one minute facing the tier 2 Smiley alone because he would definitely not be able to keep up with the tier 2 Smiley even in his focused state due to the immense difference in stats.

It was after he fought the three-headed chicken countless times in The Library Of Records that he eventually realized the main reason why the old man told him he had zero chance in defeating a tier 2 being.

Just as Corey was racking his brain on what to do, he heard a familiar voice.

"I should be able to hold on for a minute against the tier 2 monster."

Corey looked back towards the source of the voice and when he did, his eyes widened in surprise.

"The Founder?"

The shock was visible in his tone, but a second later his eyes lit up when he remembered the overpowered ability of The Founder.

"It would strain my body but if I don't do it, we'll die."

The Founder with a calm expression spoke. He then pointed at the bird of oblivion.

"If you kill it, that smiling freak should disappear right?"

He asked and Corey nodded but then a familiar voice spoke out loud:

"But what if the tier 2 monster doesn't disappear after killing the bird?"

Corey was stunned then he looked at Becca who spoke but her eyes were not on him but The Founder.

Meanwhile The Founder felt uncomfortable under the stare of Becca since he had gotten some gist of what happened between Becca and Corey, but luckily Mrs. Ashley came to his rescue.

"If that's true, what are we going to do Corey?"

Hearing Mrs. Ashley's question, Corey's mind spun on what to do if that was the case.

A few seconds later, something clicked in his mind and with a strange glint in his eyes, his eyes moved to the egg in the nest on top of the bird statue.

"If what Becca said is indeed the case, then I'll force the damn three-headed chicken to do something about the tier 2 Smiley."
