I became a legion lich-Chapter 256 - Telekinesis
256 Telekinesis
The orc’s body sank into a crater generated by its own impact and the entire throne room shook.
‘Stop yelling so loud, muscle brain. Your voice is as annoying as it is loud, so shut up for a moment.’ The freak representative spoke in everyone’s mind with irritation, pointing his hand at the orc.
He had pushed the orc away using only telekinesis, one of the aberrations’ many psychic abilities. The strength of his telekinesis depended on his mental clarity and the amount of mana he put into each thought, only the inability to access world energy and the versatility of telekinesis differed his ability from an ordinary spell.
“You bastard octopus, I’m going to kill you!!” The orc champion roared as every vein in his body stood out as anger and indignation surrounded his mind and pumped mana throughout his entire body.
He kicked the wall with all his might as he braced his body to break free of the telekinesis effect, but the freak just let him go, knowing it would just be stupid to try and compete against an orc.
The orc champion wasn’t expecting the lack of resistance and fell forward, before quickly recovering and run at the freak. He charged forward in an instant, swinging his sword in a vertical slash to slice it in half in one fell swoop.
‘Only an idiot just attacks from the front without thinking.’ The freak wasn’t startled by his movements though, chuckling gleefully in the orc champion’s mind as he used telekinesis on the orc’s lead foot, pinning him to the ground at the last second. 𝙛𝓇𝑒𝗲𝒘e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝚕. com
The orc champion was unable to stop his advance and stumbled forward before he could reach the aberration, rolling several times to try and mitigate the impact, but the aberration took a step to the side as he accelerated the orc champion with telekinesis, forcing the latter to continue until you hit the wall on the opposite side.
‘kekeke, you looked so happy rolling that I thought I’d help out.’ the aberration chuckled in everyone’s minds, causing all of the evolved demihumans to laugh with him and the orc champion to turn even redder with rage.
.....
All the representatives had walked away so as not to get caught up in the fight, but mostly so as not to interrupt them by accident and ruin the show. The conquering king also didn’t say anything and just watched, not caring that his throne room was being destroyed.
“Keuk...You weakling, using cheap tricks instead of fighting straight!” the orc champion spat out dirt and rose, charging like a raging bull again.
‘He is definitely an idiot for trying the same thing twice and expecting a different result.’ The aberration sneered and used the same method to halt the orc champion’s advance, but the latter was prepared.
The orc champion had activated mana vision and just waited for the enemy to move. The moment he saw the skill’s mana suddenly surround his leg, he kicked the ground with the heavy blow skill, opening a crater in the ground and getting rid of the telekinesis with the shock wave.
An abomination’s mental abilities were just thoughts until it fed it mana, so it could surround its enemies and they would only realize it when it was too late.
There were few beings that could sense their abilities before they were charged with mana, making them a nightmare to face.
‘If you wanted so much to sink into the earth, all you had to do was ask.’ The aberration spoke and pointed his finger at the ground, pressing the orc’s body against the ground and making the crater even bigger.
“You-” A red aura started to appear on the orc champion’s body as he roared like an angry beast, but the aberration stopped him.
He pointed upwards with a flick of his wrist and the orc slammed into the ceiling before falling down just as fast.
The aberration waved its hand up and down, the orc champion’s body following the same motion and striking the floor and ceiling several times in succession.
Every time the champion released some ability to free himself, the aberration released telekinesis for an instant and dropped him in the air, before grabbing him and doing it all over again.
“Enough!!” The orc champion fully released his red aura after being knocked to the ground for the fifteenth time and now kept the aura active.
Aura was one of the worst skills for an orc, because it consumed a lot of energy and unlike an ordinary skill, it would require them to keep continuously feeding the aura to keep it active.
The orc champion’s body was covered in bruises from multiple falls, but he got to his feet without a care, his wounded pride hurting more than any wound.
‘You won’t last more than a few seconds with that aura active, but it wouldn’t be humiliating enough for you.’ The aberration used telepathy to speak exclusively to the orc and the tentacles on its face lifted, revealing the lipless, fanged mouth below.
“Cover your ears now!” The champions who until now had only watched and mocked the orc’s performance suddenly panicked and covered their ears.
The champion aberration let out a guttural scream, causing a horrible headache to anyone who heard it. Her scream attacked the minds of all of them, causing the weakest in the room to faint.
Aberrations were unable to speak due to the lack of a tongue and having underdeveloped vocal chords, but they were still able to emit sound and by mixing their psychic waves with mana, they could create a powerful mental attack.
“ARGHH!!!” The orc champion dropped to his knees, feeling like his head was going to split. He was unable to keep the aura active and lost control of the rest of the abilities.
The aberration used the orc’s moment of weakness to infiltrate his mind with telepathy and deliver the final blow to his mind and knock him unconscious.
‘Someone take the orc champion and the other champions who passed out to one of the rooms in the mountain. I ended up being a little cruel to him and he must be unconscious for a few days before he regains consciousness.’ The freak stopped screaming and turned to one of his assistants, who levitated the demihuman bodys and carried it away.
‘Your Majesty, I beg your pardon for interrupting my report, but that irritating orc needed a lesson.’ The aberration knelt to the conquering king, who remained unfazed throughout the fight.
“Don’t bother. It’s always fun to watch your kind fight, even when you’re this weak. Now that the trash has been removed, share the battles on Caprio with us.” The conquering king ordered and the aberrations nodded, sharing with all the evolved demihumans around the battle scenes.
Even for the champion of aberrations, it was impossible for him to keep up with all the battles at the same time, so he shared the burden with his assistants, using them as extra brains to process all incoming information.
The conquering king closed his eyes as he absorbed the information gathered, focusing mainly on the church’s forces. He saw the order mages and recognized that some elite individuals and groups were indeed powerful, but it was the church members that interested him.
He recognized the symbol that paladins and crusaders wore as the symbol of Eishin’s holy army during the era of chaos, but was confused by the absence of angels during battles.
The conquering king recognized that the saints seemed close to angels, but the complete lack of angels made him uncomfortable. He expected the armies of angels to invade the continent as soon as he attacked the first human islands, remembering Eishin’s grudge and hatred for the giants, but there was nothing until now.
He still wasn’t strong enough to face a God head on, but he wouldn’t cower in front of his enemy and he was waiting for his chance to face him.
‘I can clearly see Eishin’s influence on the army of soldiers of light, but the absence of angels and other species confuses me. I remember that damn angel believed in human supremacy, but it’s strange that we haven’t seen elves, dragons or undead.’ He thought doubtfully.
During the age of chaos, all species were at risk from the threat of the raging giants, so they were forced to put their differences aside and band together for survival.
It was the only time in all of Elbon’s history that all species fought together for one purpose and Elbon’s first world war. Angels, undead, humans, dragons, elves, beastmen and all other species have come together in a single alliance in order to survive.
Unfortunately, their alliance was as rare as it was fragile and was broken the moment the giants were defeated and the species remembered their hatred for each other and returned to war.
The conquering king had no memory of what happened after the fall of the giants, but he realized that something had happened that divided the species.
‘How fun. Knowing that these idiots stayed at war even after our downfall almost makes me forget why I hate them.’ The king thought in amusement, but his thoughts quickly returned to the present.
