"Hu-kh-Cough!!" Alph exhaled harshly causing him to break into a coughing fit.He rolled on the ground as intense pain burned through his chest and throat, as if he had drank a bottle of acid.After few moments, the pain slowly receded, leaving Alph confused and flabbergasted."I-Im Alive?"He clearly remembered that his throat had been slit by the crazy old serial killer."That morherfucker! Piece of shit!" Thinking of that detestable bastard made him clench his teeth so hard that blood started dripping from his gums.He still couldn't believe that people like that existed."But how can I speak? Even if I was somehow saved, my throat should still be badly damaged!" He immediately started touching his neck.Even though his clothes were still drenched as if he had took a bath in blood, the wound was nowhere to be found."All that aside, where then hell am I?" As someone who was quick to adapt he decided to throw everything aside and focus on the current situation.He quickly surveyed hi

"How can you be alive?" The elegant girl was severely dumbfounded this time.She had been the guardian of the golden lotus lake for so long that even she didn't know how long it had been and in all her years she had seen people of all types come seeking for the golden lotus.The golden lotus was a treasure that had many uses, the most common of which was using it as supplement for one's body.Eating it would not only greatly enhance one's physical abilities but it would also wash away impurities from both the soul and body and grant a powerful holy attribute, making one with a normal body capable of practicing high level holy arts.There were even a rumours that there was once a man who had continuously taken the trial and won a hundred times, gaining a hundred golden lotus flowers, and after consuming them he immediately became a holy saint.For this reason, the golden lotus lake was an extremely famous location but not many people could find it because it wasn't fixed at one place.T

Clang!A giant silver battle axe collided with a large rusted sword, neither of them being pushed back by the slightest."Hmph!" The burly man wielding the battle axe jumped backwards before he snorted in displeasure as looked at the ugly orc facing him."I gave you a chance but since you are so stubborn then don't blame me, Mountain Fall!" He cried out and jumped high in the air.The blades of his giant battle axe started to shine brightly as a tremendous amount of power welled up inside them.Booom!He crashed down heavily with his battle axe on the orc who raised it's rusted sword to defend.But alas the strike this time wasn't anything like before and it broke the sword into pieces and fell on the orc like a mountain, completely crushing it's body splattering it's remains all over the place and creating a deep crater on the ground."Damn bastard! We should be arriving there in a week! Fuck you and your calculation errors!" Raiden, who's body was now covered in orc blood, bellowed

Alph looked at the cautious group, trying to make himself look as fierce as possible.When he was lazily waiting for dinner he had suddenly felt the orc engaging in battle and he had been observing from the start.The axe wielding brute, the small and frail looking priestess, the witch with voluptuous body, the shadowy assassin and the sharpshooter at the back.He could see all of them with the grimoir's aerial view, being able to locate the hidden enemies, it was like a cheat.However the orc was outnumbered and outmatched but Alph had decided to let it fight in order to figure out the group's strength.The group was strong and he might not be able to defeat them even with both of his slaves working together.However he had still decided to meet them on his own accord because there was a great probability that the group might enter the cave and if they did, they would face off sooner or later.He felt that it was better to make an impactful entrance, maybe he could use it to negotiat

Rooaarrrr!A giant bear standing on two legs with wisps of flames covering it's body roared in pain.There was a green, glowing arrow sticking in it's left eye and greenish veins covered the left side of it's face, squirming erratically.Raiden faced against the huge bear which was more than double his already big size, there was a visible claw mark on his chest.The piece of white cloth, which was tied on his left arm, poured out a burst of white light which started to quickly heal his wounds.Bang!He gripped the silver battleaxe tightly and blocked the fiery claws of the giant bear which caused the ground around him to cave in."Haaaaaa!" Raiden roared and dense silver aura erupted from his body, temporarily increasing his strength threefold.His muscles bulged to their limit and he jerked the battleaxe against the bear's claw, causing it to be thrown back and take a few steps back, creating a split second of opening."Now!' Kane shouted from a tree with the green elven bow in his
