Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer
chapter-2355

Inside the pocket dimension.

Sam and other participants are not aware of the silent commotion outside. However, they are aware of the apparent threat inside. While the elder is breaking the bad news, Sam is currently hovering over one of the formation pillars he had planted.

Crow is currently resting while sitting on the pillar. A concealment formation of the highest level that Sam could create is separating them from the rest of the pocket dimension.

Their location is not too far away from the scene that is currently the focus of the elders and the other audience. The Giant Black skeleton, which usually killed opponent with a single strike, is currently toying around with one of the participants in a playful manner.

Even though its bony skull face is devoid of any form of expression, the body language indicated that it is definitely toying around. Sam could see it, the student that was being toyed around could see it.

Other people that are in the vicinity could see it and eve the audience outside the pocket dimension could see it.

That is a very huge behavioral change compared to how the black skeletons acted before.

They didn't think. They just targeted the living creature that had the most kills. Now, they are playing around. The only reason Sam observed is the change in energy density and energy quality. With all his enhanced senses that is all he could deduce.

The blood lust in the skeletons became more refined and more malleable.

Which means, the skeletons are controlling it by will. Which is always a bad thing compared to unfettered and unbridled blood lust.

He also noticed something else. The failure of the escape tokens.

The candidate that is currently under the abuse of the black giant skeleton, already used his escape token to withdraw from the competition. However, he wasn't able to leave. He didn't feel that suction force that could send him out.

Despair enveloped him like a blanket of darkness. Maybe his heart and mind gave in realizing that he is at the death's door, they stopped working. His chest tightened and his brain went numb. He couldn't think of anything else other than dying.

He wanted to die.

At least that is what his mind told him. It is informing him on his desire for death. However, no matter how much he waited, the death is not coming. The giant skeleton kept on toying with him. It hit him with controlled power and caught him even before he could land.

It them stabbed him slightly in the stomach, making his insides churn.

It tore his ligaments with a swipe of its bony fingers on him. He felt pain like never before as the foreign energy ravaged his body.

Every cell of his being hurt like hell and he died slowly absorbing all that pain. Sam hovered down and spoke to Crow.

"Situation is getting a bit out of hand. I want you to be extra careful now."

"Why? What is happening?"

"The withdrawal mechanism of the tokens is bust. You cannot leave the pocket dimension by breaking it. There is a good chance that the forceful contingency mechanism of the academies also stopped working.

If it worked, they would have pulled that guy out of here.

That means, we need to find the natural way out of this pocket dimension."

Crow became a bit nervous. He has seen the wrath of those black skeletons. He knew that the threat is real.

"This whole thing became a whole lot interesting."

Sam muttered to himself as he watched the black skeleton once again start roaming to find its next target.

"You made it a whole lot interesting."

Crow corrected Sam and the latter only shrugged in response.

"I am sure the others also noticed this. What do you think they are going to do?" Crow asked.

"Why think? I am already observing their movements. Some people are gathering together. There are two groups formed at the moment and there is a great chance that they will become

one soon.

The black skeleton count is increasing. We already have six. With the aid of my trinkets and the atmosphere in general, they will keep on increasing. There is no way, anyone could deal with them individually.

Someone will try to unite all the remaining candidates to put up a fight against these -creatures."

"Then, are we joining them?"

"We will see." Sam paused for a moment, he is looking at something through his specter and a smile appeared on his face.

"Let's go."

"Where to?"

"One of the black skeletons found Rashma's location. You might want to see this."

Both of them moved. Soon, they appeared at Rashma's location. By the time they arrived, the Black skeleton and Rashma are already engaging. The sight in front of them made sam smile and Crow's mouth wide open.

"What the fuck is this?" Crow yelled out loud in shock.

At the moment, Rashma is slammed exchanging blows directly with a black skeleton. The skeleton is the Gorilla skeleton that transformed second. It is also most tricky of all the black

skeletons according to Sam.

However, Rashma is matching its speed and having a straight up slug fest with it. Both of them hit each other without holding back. Rashma ate those punches up without even a change of expression. Except for that wild grin, there is not even a wince of pain on her face.

So, while the black skeleton even failed at penetrating that smile, Rashma on the other hand penetrated that thick and dense energy around the skeleton and made contact with the bones. With every punch a crack appeared on the Black skeleton and its stable energy fluctuated to heal that crack.

Its healing really fast and getting back to its original state, pretty quick. But it is clearly being slowed down. Rashma's fast and precise attacks are widening the crack before they could feel. She just targeted the right shoulder of the creature and kept on battering on the same spot. Not a single person has shown such fierce exchange with a black skeleton until now. Even when Sam kicked it with the recoil style, the most he managed to do was push it to the side and deflect its direction. He didn't manage to crack it. And that is when the Giant Black skeleton was just formed. In this short time it has grown a lot.

*BAM* *BAM* *BAM*

The exchange continued.

Rashma's grin stayed like that as she reveled in the feeling of an equal fight.

In that state of ecstasy, she pushed the skeleton's shoulder, but the other party seemed to have anticipated it and caught a hold of her arm before it could land. Rashma used that grip as leverage and jumped up to throw a two legged kick aimed at the shoulder.

*CRACK*

The legs went through the skeleton pulverizing that targeted joint. The skeleton's arm fell off, with its collar bone and shoulder blade shattered into fragments.

The black skeleton slowed down for the first time. As the hand went back, Sam observed that

its energy absorption has slowed down by a large margin.

Usually, when a skeleton breaks, its energy absorption and capacity increases. Here, the

capacity didn't increase. It is almost like it is saturating.

Rashma stood at the side, breaking a couple of other skeletons while it waited for the black skeleton to assemble again.

When the black skeleton finally came to its original shape, Sam saw something different in the

energy vision.

The energy that started with raging intensity around the skeleton has finally died down in its

intensity.

It is calm and circulating in the skeleton just like how the spiritual energy of a cultivator would. It is only changed in its speed or intensity when the skeleton moved which is also the

same as a cultivator.

Sam also saw something else. Within the core of the skeleton, a red saturated mass of energy

appeared.

It was only visible through the energy vision and he is sure that it wasn't there before.

"Rashma, break it again."

Sam said out loud.

Rashma didn't even turn to look at him. But nodded her head. Her aura raged, much fierce

than before. After a fierce exchange of blows, the cracks started appearing on the Black

skeleton again.

She went on full brawling mode. As he rampaged, soon the arm broke off again. She was about

to step back and wait for it to recover. But Sam spoke.

"Don't. Finish it off. I want you to break its rib cage and the spine as well."

Rashma didn't respond. Instead she pounced on the skeleton and started tearing it apart. Her punches soon destroyed the targets that Sam wanted her to destroy.

The Skeleton is on the ground. In pieces. The black skeleton laid down on the ground in pieces.

There are no signs of regeneration. No signs of it getting back into shape. For the first time since they arrived in the pocket dimension a skeleton was actually destroyed.
