At the colosseum.Neodus was repeatedly punching a dragonworm like a maniac and took it to the sky with him, leaving many people astonished. His raw strength was what made him very popular among the ladies, and he was once again living up to his name.“Instead of focusing on helping people escape, he’s busy enjoying himself,” Dracarius said. “I don’t like him, but he’s someone I can’t make an enemy out of.”Dracarius’ High Knight, Nirvan, was fighting another dragonworm, albeit with Mobel the Armored Knight’s help. They received more help from others, though only Nirvan was able to injure the scary-tough beast. He had to be in the front and lead others. After he injured its scales, the others used that opportunity to damage the dragonworm as much as they could. Their tactic was simple, but because of a master fighter like Nirvan, it was still effective.Regina, on the other hand, was fighting a dragonworm alone. “Marionette.” She used her skill to stop the beast in its tracks.Her pin
At Ayana’s house.Ayana and others were inside the house, looking quite anxious because they could see that their opponent was Alveron.Though they couldn’t see his face, Ulmer’s clone had already told them that it was Alveron and to not come out of the house no matter what happens.Dustin wanted everyone to go into the basement and hide there, but Ayana didn’t agree. She wanted to see the fight between Ulmer’s clone and Alveron.“Who sent you, Alveron?” Ulmer’s clone asked. “Was it Brianna?”Alveron was surprised that he was easily seen through. “You’re as dangerous as she said. But I just reached level 93 yesterday,” Alveron said, “thanks to Princess’ help. I feel like really testing my strength right now. Why don’t we move to a different location so we can let loose a bit?”Ulmer’s clone frowned.Alveron smiled and said, “Don’t worry. No one else other than me will come. It will be decided between just the two of us.”“You… Do you know why you were sent here?” Ulmer’s clone asked.
Dozens of miles away from Ayana’s house.Ulmer’s clone and Alveron landed nearby a river. They were standing on either side of the river, staring at each other intensely.Ulmer’s clone had already seen Alveron’s attack once. He used his sword to create a destructive wind with just a mere swing of his sword. “You are certainly strong. You can erase a hill with but a swing of your sword.”“Why are you suddenly praising me now?” Alveron asked. “I’m not going to go easy on you or let your family go just because you try to suck up to me now.”“You know… not long ago… I was in love,” Ulmer’s clone said. “Whether my eyes were open or closed, I used to only see her face. I used to think about her before going to sleep every night. And she would be in my dreams, too. I believed that the entire world was a shitty place except for her. She felt like the reason for my birth. She was the only person I trusted in this world.”“What are you going on and on about with your untimely poetry?” Alveron a
Regal Needle was an extremely silent attack that Alveron had used to kill so many people over the years. It was an invisible attack because it was made out of air. Who could see an attack made of air coming? No one.This was what Alveron believed as he swiftly thrust the sword just for a fraction of a second. His movement was meant to deceive Ulmer into thinking that he wasn’t going for a thrust, but then he had already launched an invisible attack. All he needed to achieve that was just a fraction of a second.An invisible needle of air flew toward Ulmer without making any sound. There was no normal way for Ulmer to feel it, but he still moved his head out of the way.Alveron wasn’t too surprised. “So you can see the things that are invisible to the naked eye.” His speed suddenly increased, and he horizontally swung his sword. “Accelerating Slash!”It was perfectly aimed for Ulmer’s diaphragm so that Ulmer’s clone wouldn’t have enough time to dodge. An injury seemed inevitable.Ulmer,
“Now, die!”Alveron’s presence was completely hidden away. Even with spiritual energy imbued into his senses, Ulmer’s clone was not able to discern anything because Alveron’s cloaking technique countered Ulmer’s ocular technique as well as other sensory perceptions.Alveron’s sword cut right through Ulmer’s neck, making it fly high.He thought he finished the job. However, just then, Ulmer’s clone’s body grabbed the sword in its mid-motion.The head that flew fell on top of his neck and reattached itself just like how a clay doll would. “Did you forget that I’m a clone?” Ulmer pulled the sword and punched at the invisible air. “Mountain Breaker!”Ulmer’s fist was imbued with spiritual energy, and his punch not only destroyed the armor Alveron had but also ruptured his diaphragm and also injured his intestines. Alveron coughed blood as he got blown away into the distance.Alveron gritted his teeth and stopped himself midway. “Damn you…” he felt ashamed that he received such a hit from
“I’m not a punk. My name is Alveron!” Alveron slashed with his sword in a double-handed grip. “Bright Kiss!”Suddenly, everything in front of Ulmer’s clone became bright, which blinded him from seeing anything.Before he could do anything, his body was vertically split in half along with the desert ground which was cut open for hundreds of meters.But the clone began to reattach its severed parts right away as they fell into the crevice.“Primal Fang!” Alveron sent gusts of sharp wind to blast the clone’s body into bits and pieces.A few seconds passed.There was no sign of movement from the crevice.“Is it finally done? He was more annoying than I thought, but… I infused light energy into the last two attacks,” Alveron thought. “It’s not like spiritual energy, but it has the power to act upon the user’s thoughts. So, the clone might still be alive down there, but he still won’t be able to fully reattach himself.”Alveron sheathed his sword and walked away from there.“I should get ba
Alveron immediately attacked Ulmer’s clone with a sword thrust and left a big hole in his chest.“Killing me won’t achieve anything,” Ulmer’s clone said before he collapsed to the side because his injury didn’t heal this time.“Dragonworms…” Alveron sheathed his sword. “Not one but seven. It’s rather unbelievable, but it didn’t seem like he was lying. If there are seven of those things, then that thing I saw in the sky… it could very well be that hideous monster. I don’t think the dragonworms are a threat to the royals, but that other monster is a different story.”He didn’t waste any time and quickly left.Moments later.A portal opened up in the same room, and the Revers family members stepped out along with another clone of Ulmer.Seeing the dead clone of Ulmer on the floor, everyone was shocked. Suki looked very sad. Robin covered her eyes so she wouldn’t see that corpse for long.“Dustin, take it to the backyard and bury it,” Robin told him.But before Dustin could do anything, U
At the colosseum.Oscar burned a dragonworm with white flames that turned it into a white powder. And that dragonworm did not regenerate. It was deemed to be dead, but then the wormlets began to eat those white ashes and immediately began to grow in size, almost five times to what they were before.“These things have increased by many levels just from eating the ashes,” Oscar thought as he casually burned the wormlets and killed them, too, while yawning.Oscar was floating in the air with a translucent flame surrounding his body, so when some wormlets jumped at him, they got burned to death alive. His flames were not ordinary flames. Just touching these flames would spread them to the whole body and would not stop until the target got completely burned.Brianna who was watching Oscar couldn’t help but acknowledge his abilities. “He’s already killed a dragonworm without even sweating. And those flames… they even turned the dragonworm’s scales into powder. It reminds me of the time when
