Q: How do you win a fight against a flying monster? A: You have to get it to the ground!
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
Ethan and Olivia continued their conversation in the dining room as Ethan was famished, having slept for most of the day. He proceeded to forage for food in the kitchen, hoping to find something to satisfy his hunger. At Olivia's house, there was an abundance of food, mostly consisting of fast food, canned food, and fruit, that had been stored in the refrigerator for an extended period of time and, consequently, was no longer fresh. After taking a seat in the living room, the two enjoyed a warm cup of coffee while watching news coverage about the recent monster attack events. Olivia scooted close to Ethan, her body swaying side to side in a subtle rhythm that gently brushed against his. Olivia held a glass of steaming hot milk in her hand, periodically taking a sip and humming a tune that Ethan was unfamiliar with. Ethan plopped down on the plush couch, letting out a deep sigh of relief as he realized they had sufficient time until the next attack was due. "Do you have any ideas
Ethan and Olivia had enjoyed a pleasant evening together, sharing jokes and laughter, when Ethan suddenly remarked about how the media was not accurately portraying his condition. Unexpectedly, Olivia stopped talking as the cell phone on the table began to vibrate, and the TV program changed to footage of surveillance cameras being installed in every corner of the house. On the screen, three people with their weapons were seen attempting to surround Fang, who was snarling at them. “Fang!” Ethan jumped to his feet, recognizing that Fang was in potential danger. He wanted to ensure that the other people didn't misinterpret Fang's presence and therefore act aggressively toward him. Olivia grabbed Ethan's hand and asked him to sit down. "Fang won't take action unless those guys provoke it. It doesn't appear that they are here for a positive reason, Oppa," she explained. "I will handle them with caution," Ethan responded. A query, large and looming, filled Ethan's mind as he sensed
