Chapter 501 - Volume 3 (2/2)

However, the monster from Sulfur River was not someone who would follow the knight’s code, so they would only fight in a rampaging manner. In this state, they would be able to pull out 200 percent of their normal power.

At this point, Brendel could feel his eyebrows begin to burn. At that thought, he let go of his sword and grabbed for the monster’s claws, and with his other arm, he struck out, “Berserk of the Fool! Screw off, b.a.s.t.a.r.d!”

He roared and used all of his strength, and his right fist seemed to penetrate a layer of s.p.a.ce and connected with the monster’s chest. A fissure began to spread out of the monster’s chest, and the monster raised its head to reveal a horrifying look before flying away.

“Ah!” Raban, Ferlarn, and Morpheus who never seen Brendel using the Berserk skill yelped in surprise. And even Lonin was shocked. He obviously knew what the monster was. He had thought that he would not be able to overcome the adversity this time around. But then, unexpectedly, the monster was smashed to smitten by this youth that was just around peak Gold rank.

Just who is the monster now?

But Brendel did not come out unscathed. He wiped the blood off his lips. It was no doubt the monster with the highest Defense amongst all of the monsters. The damage inflicted by the Abyss Lord, plus the rebound damage by his own punch immediately pushed his HP down by 300 points into the yellow region. But it was still more than half, and that was only thanks to his berserk skill that increased his vitality.

“My Lord, your arm,” Morpheus covered his mouth. The part of Brendel’s arm that connected onto the Abyss Lord was now on fire, and Brendel looked like he was wearing a gauntlet of fire. If it was a normal person who hit the monster, there was no doubt it would have immediately vaporized. But Brendel had high magical resistance, so the flames on his arm only felt slightly hot. He just waved his arm, and the flames wisped away like a candle flame.

Lonin now looked at Brendel with revere. He was truly a monster. I was just waiting for a chance to get him distracted and flee this place with Count Yanbao. But it seems like it would be impossible to escape from this man>

He looked at the other end of the corridor. And he saw the monster embedded in the wall itself, and its flame had weakened a lot.

A moment later, smoke rose from its body, and it charred black to become a dead corpse.

It actually died with just a punch!

But Brendel did not find that odd. His one punch had the power of an Activated Elemental Awakener, plus it struck onto the Abyss Lord’s weakness. After all, it was really common to one shot a monster that was not some particular Boss like the Abyss Lord. And it was being too careless. It thought that it had the upper hand in a close combat fight with Brendel, and Brendel had taken advantage of that mistake.

Brendel stared at the body, now a pile of ash, and sighed at Ferlarn, “Monsters are usually hard to be killed outside the Sulfur River. Upon death, they will return to the Burning h.e.l.ls. However, they might leave behind some spoils. Ferlarn, go and check if it had left anything.”

“Why is it me again?” Ferlarn voiced out, displeased.

“It’s because you’re green.”

Ferlarn just looked at him, confused at his sentence.

But Brendel was not focusing on her and looked back at Lonin. After the explosion, he became worried. Plus looking at the knights panicking outside, the people in the manor must have known what is going on. But Brendel still could not believe that someone would summon the devil in the middle of the day in a place protected by the Holy Cathedral. He looked at Lonin, and asked with a serious tone, “I believe there isn’t a tunnel to the Burning h.e.l.ls here, would there? I believe you do know something, do you?”

But unexpectedly, Lonin was shaking his head adamantly. It was then he heard a pair of soft footsteps heading towards Brendel. Looking back, he realized that it originated from the stairs coming down.

“I’m sorry, sir. It was me who summoned the Devil…” A weak voice spoke out.
