Revelation

"So fast..."

In addition to Mia's original four limbs, it's equivalent to crawling on the ground with eight legs.

Moreover, spider legs are highly flexible and have great pushing power.

Carrying the light-bodied Mia, it crawled at a speed exceeding human limits.

Furthermore, Mia can use the barbs at her Joints to dig into the ground and make some sharp turns... In short, her mobility is greatly improved.

"If I get hit, the curse will probably take effect on me... I need to suppress her as little as possible without taking any damage."

Always maintain a distance of five meters.

Mia circled around Han Dong at top speed, trying to find a blind spot and an opportunity for a fatal blow.

"Mr. Han Dong, do you need my help?"

Sensing a hint of danger, Chen Li, who was Evil Refining in prison, took the initiative to send a telepathic message.

"No need... There's something wrong with this girl. I need to confirm a few things myself."

"Yes, sir, please be careful."

Just as Han Dong and Chen Li's consciousness connected, and Han Dong was slightly distracted, the two of them were separated for a moment.

A murderous intent swept over.

Mia, in her spider form, seized the opportunity, found a blind spot behind her, and swiftly attacked.

Four sharp spider legs, wreathed in a cursed aura, attempted to pierce Han Dong's body as they reached attack range...

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The sharp spider legs, like spears, thrust out fiercely.

Each strike is aimed at a position that is difficult to dodge, and there are even some pre-aiming movements, making them extremely difficult to avoid.

But... one stab after another, they just couldn't hit Han Dong.

Despite his seemingly small and thin frame, Han Dong always managed to dodge at crucial moments, and there was an underlying sense of ease and control in his movements.

What is that?

The witch and the Great Plague Lord, who live in the top-floor bedroom, have temporarily stopped their interactions due to the intense battle between their two juniors.

The witch noticed an important detail.

Just as Mia was 'spider-like', a small change also occurred in Han Dong... an eye grew out between Han Dong's eyebrows.

"Sensory fusion? Mr. Black and White's masterpiece? No... This isn't an ordinary eye, a fusion of a raven's and a human's eye? No, that's not right either."

Because of this eye, the kid's perception ability has been greatly enhanced.

So much so that he could see through the medium of black magic and the attacks of the spider spikes.

Where did this eye come from?

In contrast to the witch's astonishment.

The Great Plague Lord remained silent, for he knew perfectly well where the eye had come from.

It was this eye that helped the Plague Knights decipher the important treasure map.

Staring at the screen, Han Dong skillfully used his 'eyes' in combat without any polluting aura emanating from him, and the Great Plague Lord revealed a knowing smile.

"In just three months, you've already mastered using this eye? Even Kailonya couldn't see anything wrong with it. No wonder you're a chosen one... Being able to control the pollution is a good thing."

After the Great Plague Lord finished his internal monologue, he said:

"Perception is one aspect, but being able to nimbly dodge such a fierce attack shows that his physical qualities are also quite good, especially his 'nerve reflexes'."

Three months ago, he was a frail little guy whose health was a major hindrance.

That's right.

The reason Han Dong was able to dodge every spider leg piercing was mainly due to the "Lesser Demon Eye".

As Mia used the Curse Power, Han Dong also activated his 'cheat device'.

Faced with repeated spider leg punctures.

Han Dong only needs to continuously "see through" things.

The trajectory of the spider leg puncture is promptly fed back to the brain.

After the brain processes the information and provides the optimal dodge route, the body can then perform the corresponding dodge action.

Eyes → Brain → Body functions.

Not one can be missing!

Suddenly.

Mia suddenly quickened her pace, attempting to disrupt this balance.

She also used her mouth to try to bite the most dangerous part of Han Dong's body - his right arm.

This sudden turn of events disrupted Han Dong's dodging maneuvers.

"Hmm? It Speed Change..."

Hidden beneath the sleeves of his robe, his right arm appeared to have some kind of tumor wriggling about.

Han Dong's brain works incredibly fast, responding in 0.1 seconds and switching from defense to offense.

Boom!

Facing Mia's biting mouth.

Han Dong's right arm appears to have become larger than usual, with his hand reaching the size of a professional basketball player.

He positioned his five fingers perfectly over Mia's face.

[Extreme Strength]

The difference in strength is quite obvious.

Han Dong neutralized the speed at which Mia, in her spider form, was rushing forward horizontally.

Thud! He was slammed heavily to the ground.

If the Training Ground ground wasn't made of loose soil, but rather of concrete... if Mia had hit her head like that, she would have definitely broken the back of her head.

Even Though soft soil.

However, due to the impact to the back of her head, Mia was momentarily confused and lost the ability to move.

Of course, there are costs to switching from defense to offense.

Two sharp spider legs grazed Han Dong's body.

A spider leg scratched my waist and abdomen, damaging the dermis.

As a result, a purplish-black Curse Mark appeared on the wound... However, for some unknown reason, the curse could not spread within Han Dong's body.

The other sleeve was cut open on the right arm.

Through the cut in the sleeve, one could vaguely see a 'thick' arm hidden inside, 'with veins covering its skin'.

Even the area near the shoulder of the arm, where a terrifying giant eye can be vaguely seen, is visible.

Similarly, the curse at the incision site could not spread on Han Dong's arm... In fact, as some tentacles wriggled inside the wound, the curse was slowly absorbed.

The Victory or Defeat is decided.

Han Dong was fully capable of crushing Mia's head with the strength of his right arm during her period of mental instability.

Mia was driven mad by the curse.

But with the mask still on her face, and in the ' First Stage,' she still retained a portion of her consciousness and could barely maintain self-control... It was clear that she had already lost this competition.

Defeated despite giving it their all.

Even if the witch scolds her, she won't be too harsh.

The curse is lifted.

The spider legs growing on its back and the barbs growing from its Joints gradually turned into black smoke and returned to the mask... The Curse Power was completely sealed once again.

The murky look in Mia's eyes dissipated.

Han Dong also retracted his right arm, restoring it to its normal size.

At the same time, the Stitched Bat created by the witch for spectating the battle were also blown up.

The witch seemed to be in a bad mood, and stopped monitoring the situation in the Training Ground, preparing to vent her anger on the Great Plague Lord's body.

Mia, trapped in the soil, looked Phased State.

Beads of sweat dripped from his forehead as he stammered, "You... you're amazing."

"Sorry, I hit you a little too hard... You should be able to stand up on your own, right?"

Although Han Dong apologized verbally, he turned around and stepped back a distance, showing no intention of helping Mia.

His seemingly 'straight man' actions actually had ulterior motives.

"...able."

Mia lay on the ground for a full half minute before she recovered slightly and slowly got up.

"Um... I lost! I'll keep my promise and tell you my 'curse secret'."

To everyone's surprise, Han Dong scanned his surroundings with his Lesser Demon Eye, then waved his hand dismissively with a cold expression:

"No need, anyway, what you say won't be the truth."

I remember you said before that based on the Victory or Defeat of this match, you could make a request to the other party, right?

Mia looked surprised.

Han Dong continued, "The witch is no longer monitoring this place... I'll just say it directly."

Mia Seminovich, your acting skills still need improvement.

I only have one request: please stop bothering me from now on, okay?

Han Dong made this statement.

Mia, who had looked weak and pitiful, suddenly changed her expression.

With her black hair hanging halfway down in front of her face and a sickly expression on her face, she stared intently at Han Dong with her lifeless black eyes.

He was displaying a terrifyingly twisted smile.

"Oh!? When did you figure that out?"
