"As expected, only one."

As soon as Azekiel saw that only one of the five corpses was looking at him, he realized something. The Corpses... They weren't just mindless beings that attacked without thinking. They could sense the danger level of a person. That was also why only one of the five looked at him.

Azekiel knew he was strong, but seeing the girl fight, he understood that her offensive power was much higher than him. That also needed most of the Corpses to give her attention.

At best, he expected two Corpses to come to stop him while three left behind, distracted by Lenora. However, it was even better for him since only one of the Corpses arrived to block him, underestimating him a bit too much.

As soon as Azekiel reached near the corpse, he dropped to his knees, avoiding the sharp claws of the Corpse. His body slid past the Corpse.

He swiftly got back on his knees before the corpse could react.

Thud~

A mighty blow of the hammer landed on the skull of the corpse, sending him flying straight back to the other Undead Corpses.

The distance between him and the gem remained to be only a few meters. The corpse he sent flying landed on the ground.

Aaaaaa~

The corpse roared as if realizing that it couldn't reach the Azekiel on time; he was already very close to the gem.

As if answering to the roar of the mysterious corpse, the other Corpses also reacted. They stopped focusing on Lenora.

One of the remaining corpses disappeared. The next moment, he appeared right beside the green gem.

Another Corpse tossed his skeleton sword straight for the head of Azekiel.

The third Corpse flew to Azekiel himself. Only one corpse was left dealing with Lenora.

Azekiel was just about to touch the stone when he saw a Corpse appear near him like a ghost. His hammer changed back to the Gauntlets, which he brought together, protecting his head from the attack of the corpse.

A single fist sent him flying back, undoing all the world he had done. Fortunately, he protected his head with his Gauntlets, or it would've blown up. However, he still wasn't entirely safe. He was flying straight toward the sword that was coming for his head.

"A sword behind you!" Azekiel appeared near Azekiel. Even though he couldn't fight without being summoned, he could at least touch Azekiel.

He grabbed the wrist of Azekiel, pulling him out of the way of the sword. The sword missed him, but it didn't stop. Instead, it penetrated the skull of the corpse that had just hit Azekiel

As the Corpse was already dead, being hit in the head didn't affect it that badly. Leaving the sword in its skull, the corpse started running to Azekiel.

"Raphael, do it!" Azekiel commanded.

Raphael used the motion of Azekiel, swinging his body around before releasing. His strength gave Azekiel even more speed than he had, sending him flying straight to the green stone.

Raphael also flew beside Azekiel, following closely behind.

Azekiel sent energy bullets straight for the corpse that was coming for him. He knew that it wasn't going to have much of an effect, but he still expected it to slow down the corpse a bit.

Thud~

Azekiel straight collided with the corpse before him, stabbing both his claws inside the chest of the Corpse. The corpse didn't appear affected even now, grabbing the throat of Azekiel. The corpse started tightening its grip.

Azekiel pulled out his left hand and used it to grab the skeleton sword that was stuck in the skull of the corpse.

Swiss~

Azekiel swung the skeleton sword, slicing the hand of the Corpse that was holding his throat.

He still hadn't pulled out his right claw from the chest of the corpse. It was only after his throat was free that Azekiel planted his feet firmly on the ground.

He swung the Corpse, tossing it to the second Corpse, which was running toward him. The two corpses clashed, falling to the ground. However, they got up right away.

"That girl!" It was only after he dealt with two Corpses at once that Azekiel saw Lenora about to reach the green gem.

He wanted to use her as a distraction to get to the gem, but it appeared she had used him instead. He wasn't going to let out pass.

His Gauntlets changed to the Hammer of Gluttony. He tossed the Hammer straight at Lenora.

Since Lenora was closer to the gem, she once again attracted the attention of most of the Corpses.

"Huh?" Lenora saw a hammer coming at her. She avoided the hammer, barely missing it. However, she was so distracted by the hammer that she didn't realize something important. The Hammer was just a distraction used by Azekiel.

While Lenora was distracted by the Hammer, the Corpses caught up to her, engaging her in battle. At the same time, Azekiel dashed past Leonora. Another Corpse tried to stop him, but it was too late already. By the time the corpse grabbed Azekiel's wrist, the green gem was already inside his fist.

He had managed to receive the green gem finally! Moreover, as soon as he touched the green stone, all the Corpses appeared to stop. The Corpse which had grabbed his hand also freed it.

All five of the corpses started walking back. They all went back to the side and stood near the wall like Statues.

A screen also appeared before him, signaling that he had succeeded in what he wanted.

[You have received the Stone of Time]

[Item Type: Godly Treasure]

[Uses: 1]

"Huh? Single-use item? What the f-"

As soon as Azekiel went through the screen, his rage soared. All this work! It was for nothing? If this was a single-use item, that meant he had wasted his time for nothing!

He could only use this stone once, and that wasn't for himself either. He had promised to help the little spirit to clear the third floor. He had to use this Time Stone for that, but if he did, he received nothing! He had created such big plans on how he was going to use the Stone of Time for himself! All those plans came to a halt now!

Standing in the distance, Lia stared at Azekiel weirdly. He was looking for this stone all this time, and now that he had received it, he looked upset.

"Hand over the stone!" Lenora said in a commanding tone. It didn't matter if Azekiel had received the stone; she still wanted it! The stone was the only reason she had to come to this tower!

Unfortunately, her timing was all wrong. Azekiel was already so frustrated that her command only angered him even more.
