I Can Copy Curses

Chapter 377 377. Meeting Zeref

Orion looked around the endless desert but found no trace of the man who had been talking to him earlier. He also no longer heard his voice.

"What a weirdo! He snuck up on me, didn't reveal his presence, but didn't attack either," he muttered to himself, finding the situation oddly amusing.

Just then, he disappeared from the endless desert.

Orion suddenly found himself inside an office filled with chairs, desks, and tables, alone in the room.

[Random Teleportation complete.]

[All remaining participants, 3,734, have been teleported to the city of Du Losi.]

[All exits from the city have been blocked. Du Losi will be the final battlefield. Fight to the end until only one remains.]

Three notifications appeared in Orion's vision.

"Only 3,734 remain, and they've decided to put all of us in a city," he thought.

Orion knew the next few hours in this city would be chaotic, but he wasn't complaining.

Just then, he turned sharply, sensing something.

"Huh?"

He saw a figure hurtling toward the building he was in at an incredible speed.

Bang!

The figure crashed through the glass panes and windows, shattering concrete and leaving a massive hole in the building, before smashing into another building, destroying that one as well.

"Interesting."

Orion, now curious, flew out of the building and hovered in the air. He watched as the figure emerged from the wreckage, and to his surprise, it was Mark.

"Then the one who attacked him..."

"We finally meet, Ray Wiser."

A voice reached his ears, and Orion looked up to see a woman dressed in white standing on the roof of his building, smiling at him.

"What is it?" Orion asked.

Zeref grinned. "My talent is Absolute Counter."

Orion's eyes narrowed as he sensed the sudden shift in energy. His instincts screamed at him to move, but it was already too late.

In an instant, a shockwave erupted from her sword, unleashing a force that hit him like a hammer. The impact sent Orion plummeting from the sky, his body crashing down like a meteor.

The speed of his descent tore through the air, and when he struck the ground, the building beneath him shattered into rubble, obliterated in a single, violent blow.

Dust and debris filled the air, and for a moment, silence reigned over the battlefield.

The spectators, hovering in the sky, were stunned. Only a moment ago, the two had been locked in a fierce stalemate, seemingly equal in power. But now, one of them had been ruthlessly driven into the ground

Among the crowd watching, Tracy was in disbelief, her expression filled with worry.

"Brother..." she muttered anxiously.

Erza, observing the fight from a distant rooftop, also became concerned when she saw Orion get smashed into the ground.

"Is this your true strength, or are you hiding more?" she thought, her expression serious as she focused on the white-haired girl.

At that moment, Orion emerged from the wreckage, dusting off his clothes in the air. He soon realized it was pointless—his clothes had already been torn during the trial, and the recent impact with Zeref had only made things worse.

"Absolute Counter... quite a powerful talent," Orion said, turning to Zeref, who was watching him with a surprised expression.

"Well, it's not that strong," Zeref replied, examining him. "But you're right. Your body is incredibly strong—you don't seem injured at all."

Orion smiled wryly. "Believe me, every bone in my body is aching like crazy."

"Is that so?" Zeref smiled sweetly. "Then I'll make sure your bones won't ache anymore... by crushing them all."

"Go ahead." Orion suddenly appeared behind her, leaving a trail of dust and wind, his sword swinging toward her.

Zeref reacted quickly, spinning around and parrying with her own sword, which for a moment flashed with white light.

Orion saw the light and adjusted his sword, sliding it along hers, sparks flying as they clashed. In his other hand, he formed a swirling green sphere—much larger than any he had created before, nearly twice the size of his head—and sent it hurtling toward her.

"Have fun." Orion quickly stepped back as the attack flew at her.
