Felix widened his eyes, realizing that meaning. He suddenly twisted his body to the side as he stopped blocking this lightning anymore.
As a result, his left arm was shattered by that lightning. However, that arm wasn't the only casualty. The rock was also destroyed into pieces, freeing Felix.
"!!!" The rhino gasped, not expecting Felix to give up his hand to escape. However, it also meant the others were in danger.
The bird tried to stop Felix, but it was too late.
The moment Felix escaped from the rock, he spun his body, releasing a slash in all directions multiple times.
"Wh—" The tiger tried to avoid it as soon as he felt the Magic Power fluctuation, but it was too late. His head and brain were sliced by that long blade.
The humanoid monster in the opposite direction had a better condition than the tiger, so he managed to avoid that slash, albeit barely.
His entire shoulder was cut, revealing his true body.
It turned out the true body was far too small. The giant humanoid's height reached as high as twenty feet, but the real body was not even five feet. That was why the giant humanoid managed to avoid the attack this whole time. Even his injuries didn't seem to affect him.
Luckily, the slash actually cut both his right foot and right arm, causing him to lose balance. Even the giant humanoid monster had to abandon its giant body and face Felix himself with only one arm and one leg.
He didn't know how many rounds he could survive under Felix's relentless attack.
Of course, Felix didn't stop there. He tried to attack the third nearest monster, which was also in his range, albeit barely. However, he only managed to scratch the wing. It was a shame, but with this, there were only three enemies left. It could be said the third one would have a hard time moving if he still wanted to continue.
Although Felix's left hand was cut, he was still strong enough to fight against these monsters. Felix used his sword with only his right hand after all.
'This guy is insane.' The monsters gritted their teeth.
'To think he would sacrifice his hand to kill one of us.'
'He almost killed me too.'
The monsters were re-evaluating Felix. On the other hand, Felix finally understood why Theo brought up the oath back then.
'I guess this is my fate. I'm sorry, Theo… Even though I have made such a big promise, I'm just a foolish human. If I wasn't such a fool, I wouldn't have lost my wife.
'The evolution you talked about might be related to enlightenment, but unfortunately, I'm such a fool that there's no way such a convenient thing will appear before my eyes.
'Instead of that, I should acknowledge that I'm a fool and there will be no evolution. And since I've sworn that I'll fight for you even if I have to sacrifice my life, I think this is the time.'
Felix smiled.
He had come to a realization. It might be due to his peaceful life after following Theo that he had forgotten. He was an assassin.
In his line of work, one wrong move would kill him. But as an assassin, he would use all his abilities and resources in order to kill his target.
However, after getting used to Millie's smile and Ruth's company, his instinct as an assassin had mellowed a bit.
That was why he had never thought about doing everything in order to achieve his goal anymore. This was what made him weak.
'That's right. He knew I'd grown weak. That was why he wanted to remind me by telling me to evolve. It's not an evolution…'
Felix took a deep breath, looking at these three remaining monsters. Their injuries, condition, and positions had been recorded in his mind.
'O' God of Light, I have forgotten my oath and strayed from my path for a while.' Felix muttered inwardly as his consciousness gradually shrank.
His instinct was taking over him.
The three monsters didn't know what was happening, but they felt something was wrong with Felix.
The current Felix was dangerous. That was why their instinct told them.
However, they were a step too late to react as Felix approached the humanoid monster, trying to kill the weakest one.
"!!!" The humanoid monster, who had come out from his giant body or it could be said his avatar body, hurriedly jumped to the side, avoiding Felix.
But Felix had cut his leg and arm earlier, so his balance was off and his speed slowed down drastically, causing Felix to catch up to him.
As a desperate attempt, he tried to summon an avatar to slap Felix to death.
The other tried to use their abilities as well, but they were too far.
Felix saw this avatar but didn't pay attention to it attentively.
He used one of the palms as his foothold as Felix jumped toward the humanoid monster, cutting him down.
"Aaaaahhhhh!" The humanoid monster screamed in pain, but it was too late. The monster might be able to twist his body a little, but Felix managed to cut his shoulder and a portion of his body, so even if he survived, he wouldn't be able to recover.
Still, Felix could achieve this because he had abandoned all his defenses. He didn't care whether his body was tattered or not as long as he could kill the enemies.
Even the previous attack from the avatar twisted his ankle as Felix couldn't use that foot to run anymore. He could only use it to support his body while enduring a lot of pain.
The monsters felt chills down their spines. Felix was able to sacrifice all his body parts in order to kill them.
This felt like Felix was the monster here instead of them. They wondered whether they could still kill him or not. Even if they could kill him, they would suffer permanent injuries.
Though, that would be the same for Felix if he didn't have Aisha, who could regenerate body parts.
An evil smile appeared on Felix as he suddenly disappeared.
It was time to… hunt.
