It gathered in his palms, stretching slowly and shaping itself into a long, thin, translucent blue blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The water moved within the blade even as he held it. It rippled like liquid caught in suspended time, shimmering under the faint light of dawn. The blade was a pressurized hydraulic water weapon that Oliver had developed while training in the water chamber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn't just water—it was destruction in liquid form, honed to a razor's edge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Water at high pressure can be sharp enough to cut through the toughest metals, and the blade was inspired by that principle—focused on sharpness and precision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Using quick movements, Oliver appeared before the chimera, and before the creature could react, he sliced forward with the hydraulic blade in a swift motion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chimera's reaction was too slow. The blade hummed as it sliced through the air. The blade was a blur as it cut through the air, aimed with deadly precision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blade cut through the air as it reached the chimera, which instinctively tried to block the sword with its long arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Splatter!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chimera paused, stunned, as it looked down at where its long arm should have been—only to find a half-sliced elbow, cleanly severed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood oozed from the clean cut, dark and viscous, as the creature let out a gurgling howl of pain. It clutched the stump of its arm, its grotesque mouths twitching in agony.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It took a moment before sharp pain assaulted the senses of the dark chimera, making it recoil in fear and indignation as it looked at Oliver with wary eyes and a hint of fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chimera's body, which it thought was unbreakable and its greatest weapon, had been sliced apart flawlessly by the mysterious watery blade, as if slicing butter with a hot knife.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its confidence shattered, replaced by a creeping, primal terror. The chimera's entire body started to shake violently as it looked at Oliver. The moment it looked into Oliver's eyes, an unprecedented fear suddenly enveloped its whole being.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two eyes as vast as the sky itself seemed to be gazing down at it in that moment; just the mere gaze weighed down as if thousands of mountains were raining from above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hybrid's body shook violently as it followed the closest instinct it could muster in the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Escape!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its mind might not have realized it, but the hybrid's tough, earlier-indestructible body had realized one fact…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oliver's presence was life-threatening!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those eyes held something ominous that gave birth to a primal feeling within its body. It was not just fear—it was the deep, gut-wrenching knowledge of impending doom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was something that could not be explained in words but was unmistakably present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Trying to run away?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oliver frowned, and his feet blurred into motion. Using his only movement technique, he gave chase to the chimera.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ground blurred beneath him as he closed the distance, relentless. No matter what, he could not let the hybrid enter the town.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had to confine it here at any cost and then exorcise it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the hybrid started attacking civilians, not only would it quickly grow stronger, but it would also cause a massive commotion, and his mission might become very difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only that, but his presence could also become known to his clan and to others far and wide, which would put a firm end to all his future plans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything he had worked for would unravel in an instant. He could not allow that at any cost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the chimera's physical strength was beyond what a rank-1 exorcist could compete with, it was not an issue for Oliver. With his own absurd strength, keeping up with the chimera was easy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hydraulic blade moved again as a terrifying wave of water swept over the chimera's entire body, leaving multiple blade marks. Each cut was precise, designed to disable, not kill. Vicious green, mucus-like blood started to pour like a fountain from those sharp wounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hybrid hissed painfully as it fearfully ran in any direction, just to get away from Oliver, who was tailing it like a wild beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was almost comical how their roles had reversed at this moment—the chimera, a dark beast that should have been chasing after the prey, was now being relentlessly pursued by that very prey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hunter had become the hunted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Humph.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oliver snorted as the chimera tried its best to dodge and make him lose its trail. It was desperate, but no amount of frantic running would save it now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their figures turned into small lights as they clashed against each other in the playground. The sun was slowly starting to rise, and the area was brightening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The playground had suffered clear marks of destruction from the battle between two supernatural forces—everything was vivid and fresh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A loud sound echoed in the quiet morning as Oliver once again sliced off the chimera's limb, this time its left leg.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hybrid roared furiously, collapsing to the ground, unable to balance itself to escape further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oliver was lucky that the hybrid before him didn't seem to have developed any regenerative abilities, or it would have truly turned into a nightmare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hybrid looked at Oliver, who was calmly staring at it, and felt restless, anxiously dragging itself away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It could sense its own end creeping closer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's time to face your exorcism.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oliver's eyes turned cold as he muttered, and in the next moment, a torrent of pitch-black flames engulfed the chimera whole!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Roar!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a fierce roar of struggle from a beast at its end. Even after losing its mind, the chimera still did not dare to approach Oliver.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fear instilled into the chimera was so strong that, even at its end, it tried to escape from Oliver, who was standing still, watching the hybrid crawl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if the mere presence of the boy was enough to drive the creature mad with terror.\u003C\u002Fp>",1056,"2026-06-10T06:20:28.087Z",1,"novelbin.me","e0e6d7cb28d500f3521a799c370343ee77da08437f2074c6382bb1d2a809e25d","obtaining-10x-rewards-reincarnated-into-a-novel--chapter-215","obtaining-10x-rewards-reincarnated-into-a-novel--chapter-213",316,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fobtaining-10x-rewards-reincarnated-into-a-novel--cover.jpg"]
