I Can't Be Bothered to Explain, and You're Not Worthy of Hearing It

"Your next words are... 'How is that possible?!'" Chu Yunyi stepped through the glass wall, without a speck of dust on him.

Nano Skin was more than just skin. It could also protect his clothes from damage.

And then Chu Yunyi spoke.

Xia Tian's eyes instantly widened, and his tongue nearly lolled out as he said, "How is that possible?!"

Realizing what had happened, Xia Tian caught his breath and abruptly shrank back two steps.

The chair beneath him scraped backward as well.

You had to understand—

Everything should have gone according to his calculations!

He'd combined memories from his previous life with videos from military satellites he'd gathered in this one, analyzing Chu Yunyi's abilities!

That was why he'd been so confident!

According to his intelligence,

Chu Yunyi excelled at opening Teleportation Gates and moving around at will.

Besides that,

he could summon a shadow.

Lastly, he could swap places with objects within his field of vision.

There was some doubt about whether Chu Yunyi could pass through walls.

The information wasn't very clear, but Xia Tian had still taken the possibility into account.

Aside from that,

Chu Yunyi's physical abilities should have been no better than those of an ordinary person who exercised regularly!

And this glass—

It was bulletproof and let light through only one way!

The other half of the room was a carefully prepared hail of bullets. The moment Chu Yunyi stepped out of the doorway, he'd be riddled with holes, perfectly cosplaying as SpongeBob SquarePants.

But now—

With Chu Yunyi emerging unharmed from the glass, control of the situation seemed to have returned to his hands!

"Impossible!"

"How could my carefully laid plans fail just like that?!"

"You can only pass through walls, can't you? How can you pass through glass?!" Xia Tian clutched his head, seemingly unable to believe it.

Hearing his objections, Chu Yunyi couldn't help laughing.

"You're hilariously stupid, Xia Tian."

"In this new era, even a T0 Cthulhu has to make sure it can't be defined. You defined a wall."

"Why shouldn't glass count as a wall?"

"Anything in my way is a wall!" Chu Yunyi's voice rose steadily.

A space entrance opened.

Chu Yunyi reached out with his right hand and pulled the Black Gold Shock Saber from his Portable Space!

The moment the blade left its sheath, it activated its high-polymer cutting mode!

"W-what the hell is that?!" Xia Tian stared blankly, seeming to have lost confidence in himself.

"I can't be bothered to explain."

"And you're not worthy of hearing it!" Chu Yunyi twirled the saber, its gleaming edge sweeping beautifully through the air.

Then—

he pointed it straight at the bewildered Xia Tian!

Chu Yunyi shifted his gaze and swapped places with the teacup on the table!

Whoosh!

One stroke took his head clean off. Xia Tian's head flew high into the air!

Right after it,

the blood from the arteries in Xia Tian's body sprayed out like a fountain in a park at dawn, suddenly switched on.

From Xia Tian's perspective,

Chu Yunyi had just emerged from the wall, drawn the Black Gold Shock Saber, and then cut off his head in a single stroke!

Thud.

His head hit the ground.

As if only then had he come to his senses,

seven-colored light suddenly blazed in Xia Tian's eyes!

Pride was purple, greed gold, lust pink, envy cyan, sloth blue, Wrath red, and gluttony orange.

Seven colors, seven abilities—all flared to their limits in an instant!

"Damn, what is this, retro Mary Sue stuff?"

Chu Yunyi clicked his tongue.

He raised the Black Gold Shock Saber and slashed several times. Multiple streaks of blade light cut Xia Tian into pieces.

Seeing this,

Chu Yunyi felt it was probably unnecessary. If he kept cutting, Xia Tian's brains would turn into mince.

But—

Things didn't go as Chu Yunyi hoped. Even chopped up into a platter of sliced meat, Xia Tian could still move.

He had no organs or vocal cords, so Chu Yunyi had no idea what he was using to make noise.

"Heh heh heh!"

"You almost fooled me. What a clever plan, Chu Yunyi!"

"You wanted to deal me a blow, then make me gradually lose my invincible power of pride?"

"I'm not so easy to defeat, ahhh!"

The platter of sliced meat shouted as it gradually pieced itself together, forming Xia Tian's head.

And—

his body was rapidly regenerating. It wouldn't be long before he was whole again!

But... seeing this, Chu Yunyi wasn't worried at all.

Chu Yunyi watched him for a couple more seconds, then raised a hand. NO.15, Portable Space, activated.

A space entrance appeared behind Xia Tian's head.

"Heh heh heh! Scared now, are you?"

"I told you, with the power of the Seven Deadly Sins, I'm invincible!" Xia Tian shouted arrogantly, even though all that remained of him on the ground was a regenerating head.

Chu Yunyi said nothing as he enlarged the space entrance.

Then he turned the doorknob inside his Portable Space and said, "Outer space."

Only after that did Chu Yunyi spare a thought for Xia Tian, whose shoulders had regenerated.

"Seven abilities?"

"That's not even a fraction of what I can do. I have no idea what you're bragging about."

Chu Yunyi was utterly nonchalant, as if he didn't take it seriously at all.

At those words,

Xia Tian's regenerating body paused, and its recovery came to an immediate standstill.

But soon,

Xia Tian shouted again, "What the hell are you talking about?!"

"I have the power of the Seven Deadly Sins, bestowed upon me by the supreme Lord Mo Xun!"

"Even if you have multiple abilities, you're still no match for me!"

"I'll make you—"

Chu Yunyi found him noisy and couldn't be bothered to pay him any attention. He simply opened the door he'd said led to outer space.

The next instant—

*!!!*

A soundless pressure wave appeared, and a pressure differential of nearly ten tons struck at once!

Xia Tian heard a rush of wind in his ears!

Then—

his body was flung backward and sucked into space!

In his field of vision,

a space station faced him, with a door in the center of one of its compartments.

The space station in his view was slowly receding.

"You bas—"

After uttering the last two words, the air in Xia Tian's body was completely depleted, leaving him unable to make another sound.

And Chu Yunyi, following close behind, lost his grip and was dragged along as well.

Looking at the space station all around him, Chu Yunyi thought:

No wonder I can open a door into outer space. Is this some country's space station?

The Nano Skin on Chu Yunyi's body was still working, keeping him from gradually losing body heat.

Just a few seconds later,

Environmental Adaptation, Chu Yunyi's first yellow ability, took effect, instantly adapting him to the conditions of space.

As for Xia Tian—

His body was already coated in frost, and he continued to regenerate slowly while frozen stiff.

By then, his arms and most of his torso had regenerated as well.

Chu Yunyi looked over.

Xia Tian's mouth was opening and closing wide. Chu Yunyi wasn't fluent in reading lips, but he could still make out the curses at a glance.

But Chu Yunyi wanted to annoy this runt.

So even though he had NO.6, Words of All Spirits, he didn't use it on Xia Tian.

Instead, he cupped a hand behind his ear, raised his eyebrows slightly, and pretended he couldn't hear him.

Seeing this,

even in the freezing cold of space, more than a hundred degrees below zero, Xia Tian was so furious that he flushed red!
