Roar!
Yuko charged forward and she smashed the leg of the golem. The impact of her attack caused a crack to form on the surface of her opponent's leg.
Bang!
The golem raised its hand and swung it down towards Yuko. Yuko saw it and she opened her mouth and used her trait skill [Burning Shout].
Sea of flames burst out of her mouth and it swallowed the giant golem.
Still, it didn't have enough power to melt a sturdy golem like this one.
Swoosh!
The fist of the golem landed on her body. The ground shook heavily and a large crater formed on it.
Bang!
Yuko gritted her teeth and she pushed the fist away from her. It didn't mean that she didn't suffer injury from that attack, she received a few broken bones but she just ignored it thanks to the spirit power that was flowing in her body.
She opened her mouth and once again used the [Burning Shout] trait skill. She was spamming her skill as her mana continued to drain. She was trying to see if her skill could melt this golem.
Boom!
"So stubborn!"
Gyun, the person who was controlling the golem, have an unpleasant look on his face. This golem wasn't made from his power alone. It was made with the help of a powerful tier 3 spell called [Rising of the Earth Domain]. It means that Cluster's enormous mana was strengthening it.
Even with that, he still couldn't kill the monster who was fighting him. This bear was stronger than he imagined and possessed some great skills. He didn't think that a second evolution monster could bring him some trouble even with his upgraded golem.
"You're just a second evolution monster!!"
He roared as he controlled the golem to raised its arms.
[Dozens Earth Spike]!!
The golem raised both of its arms and smashed it on the ground. Several huge spikes emerged from the ground with the golem at its center.
Boom!
Yuko tried to avoid it but her body was huge and it was an easy target. A fast AOE attack like this spell could clearly hit her.
One of the spikes pierced her abdomen. She groaned in pain as blood spurted out of it.
She lifted her paw and smashed the spike on her abdomen.
Bang!
She then dashed forward and smashed the same leg of the golem. The cracks on it spread slowly and it grew larger. After that, she opened her mouth and used [Burning Shout].
Flames burst out of her mouth and seeped into the cracks on the leg of the golem.
'This monster...!! It kept attacking me on leg...?'
Gyun realized that Yuko was targeting the leg of his golem. He just noticed it when the cracks grew larger.
The other part of the golem only have a few scratches but the leg was the problem. If Yuko kept attacking it, then it will eventually collapse.
He will lose his mobility if that happened. He will become a free target for this monster.
'I had to protect the leg...'
Gyun thought as the golem took a step back and changed its form. For now, he will use the left leg as the pivot foot instead of the right leg.
Roar!
He swung his hands downwards as he saw Yuko charging at him.
"Damn you!! Monster!!"
Yuko suddenly stopped as the fist of the golem landed in front of her. It was close but she managed to stop her body on time.
She then opened her mouth and aimed her skill on the ground. The flames spread out on the area. It blocked Gyun's vision.
"This...?! She's using the flames as smokescreen!"
Gyun opened his eyes widely. This bear was different than the monster that he had fought in the past. This bear knows how to fight like humans and demis. He felt like he wasn't fighting a monster but instead a human or demi.
Then, he felt the golem shook as Yuko smashed his right leg once again.
Bang!
[Scorching Form]!
He had no choice but to use everything that he had got to kill this bear. This skill will amplify the power of his golem by two times but it only has a time limit of three minutes. After that, his strength will decrease by three times.
The golem emitted a red light and it punched Yuko's body.
Bang!
Yuko was caught off guard by the sudden increase of her opponent's power and speed. She flew away and crashed on the walls.
...
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Yujin and Ryo were swinging their sword at each other. Their hands were blurring and sparks flew out between them every time their weapons collided.
Yujin slashed his sword horizontally and Ryo crouched down to avoid it. Ryo then thrust his sword forward but Yujin used his other sword to parried his attack.
Clang!
'This guy is strong... Just what is this unknown energy that makes him stronger.' Ryo thought as blueish aura covered the blade of his sword before he slashed it towards Yujin.
[Incapacitating Direct Slash]!
Yujin crossed his sword in front of him and he changed the direction of his opponent's skill.
Boom!
The skill exploded behind him.
He jumped away and felt a powerful wave of energy on the other side of the room. He glanced at it and saw that the golem was overpowering Yuko.
'Jin, Yuko is in trouble.' Alophy said to him.
'Yeah, yeah, I can see it.' Yujin replied as he channeled his spirit power on his sword before launching it at Ryo.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
He then slashed the ground causing the dust to shot up in the mid-air. Since he knew the direction where Yuko was fighting, he charged towards it without hesitation while heightening his senses in case Ryo sneak on him.
Swoosh!
Yuko swung her paw and the golem swung its fist. Both of their attacks collided and Yuko was blasted away.
She flew and rolled on the ground a few times before she stopped. She was heavily injured and her body felt heavy.
The golem moved its giant body as it rushed at her. The ground trembled every time it took a step forward.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Yuko opened her mouth and flames burst out of it. The flames swallowed the golem but it wasn't enough to stop it. The flames didn't have enough power to push a heavy object like the golem.
The golem quickly threw a punch at her the moment that it arrived in attack range.
Bang!
Yuko pushed her body and jumped sideways to avoid the punch. The fist of the golem landed on her previous position creating a crater on it.
It seems that she had no choice but to use her ace. She recalled her master's warning that she couldn't easily show the power of blessing. She could only use it if she really had no way out of her situation.
"This is the end, monster!!"
Gyun shouted as he controlled the golem to throw another punch at Yuko.
"Not on my watch!!"
Yujin appeared in front of Yuko and he placed back his swords on its sheath as he bent his knees.
[Sword Drawing Technique: Form Three]!!
The fist was one meter away from him when he shot himself forward. He pulled out his sword and spun like a snake around the arm of the golem.
[Sharp Slithering Slash]!!
"What?!"
Gyun was stunned as he saw a layer of the golem's arm was gone.
Yuko was in front of the head of the golem so he wanted to use this chance to damage it but Ryo flew towards him at high speed.
Swoosh!
He tightly gripped his swords and he clashed with Ryo.
Boom!
Yuko stopped moving as she was in daze. She was about to use the blessing of the destruction queen but she felt a warm feeling inside her body.
Because of this she entirely forgot about her opponent and the battle around her. She closed her eyes and found herself in her inner consciousness.
There's a small ball of energy in front of her. It was all the energy in her body.
She subconsciously raised both of her paws on the side and the energy stabilized. She didn't know what this energy ball but she somehow knew what to do as her instinct was telling her what to do.
A few moments later, the ball of energy felt like it came to life. It started thumping like a heart of the living creature.
Thud! Thud!
Thud! Thud!
The energy started to go berserk as some part of it became solid. Veins-like things approached the energy with enthusiasm. The veins pierced the energy ball and after a few seconds, a large amount of energy was flowing through the veins.
At the same time, a large amount of information flowed into her mind. Information about monsters, the language of the monster, her bloodline, the monster lord of her kind, and the path that she was taking. All of these went to her mind.
