Absolute Cheater - Chapter 504
Chapter 504: Bionics VII
Asher rolled his shoulders once and exhaled slowly.
The temperature in the hall dropped.
A ripping sound echoed behind him.
Shadows twisted.
Space bent.
And Asher finally stopped fighting alone.
Both chimeras crouched ahead of him, ready to pounce. Blue flames flickered across their molten bodies. Their void cores spun faster, loud and unstable.
Asher lowered his stance.
“…Yeah. Enough of this.”
His shadow stretched behind him—then thickened into a dark crack on the floor.
“Okay. Abyss Dragon Knight… come out.”
The crack split open, and a tall armored figure stepped out. Black plates covered its body, shaped like a dragon’s scales. A heavy greatsword rested on its back. Blue soul-fire burned inside the slits of its helmet.
This was Asher’s last remaining reaper.
The Death Soul Monarch ability allowed him to create an army of powerful undead servants. But after he ascended, those reapers couldn’t reach the new realm’s standards. So he fused all of them using his infinite fusion cheat, creating a single Higher-Being-level reaper.
That result stood beside him now.
The Abyss Dragon Knight—Third Stage Higher Being.
Enough to match these chimeras.
“Now we’re equal,” Asher said, staring at the two monsters.
The chimeras hissed, flames leaking from their jaws.
The Abyss Dragon Knight rested a hand on its greatsword.
Asher cracked his neck.
“Alright. Round four.”
Both chimeras charged at once.
The first one blinked forward, appearing right in front of Asher with a claw aimed at his throat. The second teleported behind him, swinging its tail like a metal spear.
Before either strike landed, the Abyss Dragon Knight moved.
It blurred forward and smashed its shield into the first chimera, launching it into the wall. The impact left a crater.
The second chimera slashed at the knight from behind, but the greatsword came off its back instantly. The knight turned and blocked the incoming tail. Sparks flew. Metal shrieked.
Asher moved in too. He dashed at the chimera that had been thrown into the wall and punched it the moment it recovered. His fist dented its chest plate and sent it sliding again.
The chimera countered with a blast of blue fire, but Asher sidestepped and kicked its knee, making it collapse for a second. He grabbed its head and slammed it into the floor.
Meanwhile, the Abyss Dragon Knight and the other chimera clashed in the center of the hall.
Sword swings. Tail strikes. Fire bursts.
Every hit shook the entire corridor.
The knight grabbed the chimera by its neck, slammed it into the ground, and drove its sword down. The chimera blinked away at the last second and reappeared at Asher’s side, swinging at him.
Asher blocked with his forearm and countered with an elbow to its jaw.
The knight appeared behind it instantly, gripping its shoulders.
Asher smirked.
“Thanks for the assist.”
He drove a heavy punch into the chimera’s stomach while the knight held it in place. The blow crushed its metal ribs inwards.
The chimera screamed, blue fire bursting from its mouth.
The other chimera blinked back into the fight and tried to stab the knight from behind.
Asher reacted first. He tackled the second chimera straight into the opposite wall. The impact shook dust from the ceiling.
“Stay with me,” he growled and punched it again.
The two chimeras struggled, void cores spinning harder. The blue fire around them brightened—they were preparing to go all out.
Asher wiped blood from his chin.
“Abyss Dragon Knight,” he said. “We finish them together.”
The knight nodded once, soul-fire burning brighter.
Both chimeras roared and rushed them.
Asher and the knight charged forward at the same time.
Both sides collided in the middle of the hallway like a four-way crash.
The first chimera went straight for Asher, blinking in short bursts and trying to slip through his guard. Its claws aimed for his neck again. Asher blocked the first swipe with his forearm, ducked under the second, and countered with a fast uppercut to its jaw. The hit snapped its head back and forced it to stumble.
The second chimera leaped onto the Abyss Dragon Knight, slamming both claws onto its shield. The knight planted its feet and shoved back, driving the chimera several meters before swinging its greatsword in a wide arc. The blade cleaved into the chimera’s arm, cutting halfway through the molten metal.
Blue fire sprayed out, but the knight didn’t retreat. It pressed forward, pushing the chimera into the wall.
Asher didn’t give the first chimera a break either. He rushed it, grabbed its arm mid-swipe, and twisted. The joints cracked. The chimera tried to blink away, but Asher yanked it forward and kneed it in the stomach, then slammed it onto the floor.
It tried to fire blue flames upward, but Asher stomped on its jaw, shutting it.
Across the hall, the knight got slammed by the second chimera’s tail. The hit sent it sliding across the ground, carving a deep trail in the broken tiles. The chimera blinked again, chasing it, claws raised for a killing strike.
Asher noticed.
He grabbed the first chimera by its metal horns, spun its entire body around, and threw it directly at the other one.
The two chimeras collided mid-air. Both crashed together in a loud metallic smash.
The Abyss Dragon Knight didn’t waste the opening. It shot forward, sword aimed down, and stabbed through the tangled pair. The blade pierced the second chimera’s shoulder, pinning it to the ground.
The first chimera ripped itself free and tried to stand—but Asher was already there.
He punched straight into its chest plate, breaking through the weakened metal. His fist sank inside up to his wrist, right next to the void core.
The chimera shrieked, blue fire exploding from the wound.
Asher gritted his teeth, pulled his hand out, and hammered the same spot again. The metal dented inward, almost crushing the core.
The chimera slashed him across the ribs, cutting deep, but Asher grabbed the arm and twisted until it snapped off at the elbow. Then he punched the chimera in the face so hard its head bounced off the wall.
