Q: "What did the survivors say when they talked about the tragedy?" A: "That's a lot of people... monster ball!"
Olivia held Fang tightly as it jumped from the top of the building, zig-zagging its way down to the ground. As they descended, the tension that she felt slowly began to fade away as she felt in awe of Fang's speed and agility. Fang stood, its body crouched and ready to attack. Olivia's radar began to detect dozens, if not hundreds, of orange dots—monsters—in the sky and on the ground. “Oppa, get ready!” she yelled, “There are two types of monsters. Dozens of those flying are moving towards your position and others are running on the ground.” A dark, foreboding atmosphere filled the air as the monsters began to take shape. Olivia knew that they were in for a fight. "Okay Olivia!" Ethan replied from an earphone stuck to Olivia's ear. The dark, dead city seemed to be alive with the eerie screams of dozens of long, thin bat-headed monsters. They crawled fast and wildly toward Olivia and Fang, drooling from their mouths. Olivia raised the golf club in her hand and braced herself for
Ethan's eyes were suddenly focused, and his heart beat quietly as he stood firmly with Mjolnir in his right hand. He glanced up at the sky as tens of Monsters flew towards him, screaming. The nearest was an inch away when Ethan grabbed its head, squeezing it tightly until it broke and disappeared in the wind. "One!" Ethan muttered. Three more monsters approached from behind. Ethan spun around and delivered a powerful punch from the Hammer of Judgment, finishing them off in one fell swoop. "Two!" he said again. When Ethan saw some of the monsters trying to look away, he screamed, “HAMMER THROW!!!!” The Mjolnir flew from Ethan's hand like a bullet, spinning through the wind and creating a loud sound that broke the monsters' terrifying screams. "Hammer blink!" Just before the monsters could reach him, Ethan's body suddenly vanished from the rooftop and reappeared in the air with the Hammer of Judgment strongly held in his grasp. With a single powerful stroke, he targeted the group
Ethan managed to teleport to his Hammer, which was spinning in the air, but his grip was very weak and he eventually lost his hold. His body plummeted back to the ground. Olivia and Fang desperately tried to catch him, and Ethan fell to the ground safely, but he had lost consciousness. "Oppa, no Oppa, please...." Olivia anxiously checked to see if Ethan was alright; his HP hadn't reached zero, but he was in a critical condition. Olivia's heart shattered. She screamed with all her might. "No Oppa, please... Survive... I don't want to lose you... what should I do..." she asked desperately, her face contorted in panic. Someone then sat in front of Olivia, cradling Ethan's right palm. The girl Ethan had saved had bright red hair, with red hoops of blood staining her dress from a deep gash on her stomach. She sat quietly, closing her eyes, seemingly in deep concentration. A green aura surged from her body, slowly passing through Ethan's hands and fingers, then engulfing his body. The g
Ethan's eyes slowly opened, adjusting to the dimly lit room. Moonlight spilled in between the door and window, providing a small source of illumination. He felt a chill in the air, but it was not the cold of the wound he had suffered. Rather, it was the cold of the night. Despite this, he felt a warmth emanating from something soft and comfortable. Ethan took a moment to appreciate the softness of the pillow he was sleeping on. It didn't quite compare to his usual pillow, but it was accompanied by a feeling of calm. Then, he felt a gentle caress, a soft touch from little fingers that slowly moved through his hair, across his forehead, cheeks, and finally to his lips. "Olivia?" he asked, his voice slightly slurred. As Ethan's eyes widened, he took in his unfamiliar surroundings. He was lying on his side, gazing at the clothes and belongings scattered across the room. Then, he slowly turned his body and saw who had used their lap as a pillow for him. "Ethan Oppa?" Olivia said softly,
[Bloodsucker Fighter (General) Lv. 31][HP: 14700/15000]Ethan watched with apprehension as another monster appeared on the television screen, this one with a General level higher than he had ever seen before. He knew that this monster would not be easy to take down and that the shelter near the fight would be destroyed soon if it wasn't stopped. As he watched the battle unfold, he wondered if he should just accept the situation and let the monster run wild, causing more victims, or if there was something he could do to help.Ethan considered several ways to kill the monster, but hope alone was not enough. Even if someone could defeat it, they wouldn't just happen to stumble upon the news. He was aware that the people fighting the monster didn't have enough time and energy to contain it, and hundreds of thousands would become victims in a few minutes.Olivia gazed at Ethan, her expression forlorn, awaiting his response and judgment about their next steps. The scene was not too dista
“Olivia!!” Ethan screamed Olivia's name as he leaped forward, a large hammer appearing in his hand. His eyes darkened with anger, and his heart filled with rage. He attempted to hit the monster with the hammer, but the creature was faster than he had anticipated. It extended its long claws, ready to greet him.Ethan was in a close combat situation with no time to spare. He had to act quickly. He decided to throw his hammer from a distance instead. "Hammer throw!" he shouted. With a powerful throw, he released the hammer, sending it flying toward his enemy. He watched as it soared through the air and struck its target, delivering a crushing blow.The Mjolnir flew with tremendous force toward the monster's body. On impact, it only left a small, superficial wound on its skin before landing back on the ground. Ethan, frustrated, looked up into the sky and roared with rage. He knew he had to find a way to defeat the monster.Ethan quickly realized that the monster could regenerate and
[Ethan Lv. 15] [HP: 170/800] [Bloodsucker Fighter (General) Lv. 31] [HP: 2,300/15,000] Ethan quickly dropped the Mjolnir and leaped backward, narrowly avoiding the monster's wild punches. The creature was moving faster this time, but its punches were not as precise as before. “Hammer blink!” Ethan quickly activated his Mjolnir ability as the Mjolnir drew near the monster. With haste, he maneuvered himself behind the monster and raised his hammer, delivering a powerful punch to the monster's thin and tall legs. Ethan delivered a flurry of punches, successfully knocking the monster to the ground. He then pinned the monster's leg to the ground to minimize its mobility. With one final punch, Ethan shattered the bones in its right leg. [Bloodsucker Fighter (General) Lv. 31] [HP: 1,100/15,000] That was a truly hard-fought battle. Ethan had to summon all his concentration and exert all of his efforts to stay afloat and attempt to overpower his adversary. Yet, the giant before him se
[You have achieved an outstanding outcome for the second wave of attack!] [Your performance was remarkable, and it is clear that the hard work you have put in has paid off.] [Congratulations on such a successful accomplishment!] [Monsters Killed: 32] [Calculating the Reward] [You have received 5 Status Points] Ethan opened his eyes slowly, and he saw a line of glowing green lettering in front of him. His vision was filled with the text, and it seemed to be suspended in the air. Ethan had been putting in more effort than usual, yet the reward he received this time seemed to be less than usual. All he got were some Status Points, not the usual new power that he would expect as a reward. Ethan's head still felt dizzy, and he took several deep breaths in an effort to calm himself. Gradually, his full consciousness returned. He felt something moist and soft on his left palm and, after a few moments of confusion, realized that it was Olivia who was asleep and had pressed her chee
