Chapter 33 Part6 (2/2)

[Keuk, you troublesome b.a.s.t.a.r.d!]

Arogan's ability as a hero was 'taunt'. That miraculous ability would draw his opponent's attention, actions, and even magic towards him.

It was an ability that would allow him to be a s.h.i.+eld for his party, and that's how he had lived his life as well. And by taunting one last time, he had decided to sacrifice his life to save the rest of his party!

[Arogan!]

[I've already lost an arm. It's better that I sacrifice myself, Ellata! Survive until the very end and stay by the t.i.tan's side!]

Although Arogan had bought enough time for her to retreat, she not only didn't retreat, but attempted to save him as well, so Arogan yelled firmly. He activated his skill to its limit, drawing all of Metafel's tongues towards him. It was to the point that his body was no longer visible.

[Keuk. Urgh...!]

[Arogaaaaan!]

In the end, they were unable to see Arogan. Through his sacrifice, Bisher, Chi Paul, and s.h.i.+no Rendu were barely able to retreat and gasped (though they really couldn't). They kept their eyes on Metafel, but Ellata, unable to contain her fury, struck the ground with her hands, encasing her hands in dirt and ice mixed gloves. Then, she charged at Metafel.

[Give me back my comrade, you monster!]

Maybe it was just her, but it felt like her body was overflowing with power. She was sure that it was because of her anger and believed it to be so. However...

[Kuhaaaaaaaahk!]

Metafel screamed before she could land a hit. Did her intent strike first before her body? Ellata fists shook in surprise, and a portion of Metafel's body (which had become a ma.s.s of tongues) burst.

[Huaaaaaaaaaah!]

A Giant's roar resounded throughout the area. It wasn't Ellata. It was none other than Arogan!

[Lv7 Bone t.i.tan Knight - Arogan]

Ellata's eyes widened when she saw Arogan tear through a portion of Metafel's body and come out. Arogan had been reborn; his once rotten flesh had been replaced by tough jet-black bones that went from head to toe.

[t.i.tan! Oh t.i.tan!]

[Oh, ooooh...]

He'd lost all his flesh, but that didn't mean he was weaker. On the contrary, the essence of his karma had enriched his bones and had made him even stronger... Plus, his lost arm had been restored in bone form.

Honestly, there was a world of difference in his power compared to before he had been swallowed by Metafel!

[You're the same, Ellata!]

[Is that so...!?]

[Kuaaaaaaaaaah!]

Metafel screamed in acute pain and shot out his tongues at Arogan! However, Arogan stretched out his jet black arm and blocked the tongues.

[Kuuuuuu! Ellata!]

[Kihiaaaah!]

Of course, there was still a clear level disparity. He was still weaker in terms of pure strength, and his reinforced bones would still melt.

However, he could endure it. He could fight him head-on. Seeing that, Ellata felt something inside of her, some core part of her was sublimating into something greater. Then, she realized.

'The t.i.tan has returned.'

They'd already heard that the t.i.tan's strength would not last forever. They'd also heard that the t.i.tan's appearance might not be as they imagined. However, the t.i.tan Tribe had prayed and wished for the t.i.tan's return for hundreds of years, and those prayers themselves became a ma.s.s of karma, ama.s.sing within the Giants' minds and bodies.

And when the t.i.tan walked upon the grounds of Heita once more, they would be able to accept that karma! That karma was only for them, and would entrust them with the t.i.tan's Pride!

[Huooooooooh!]

Just like Arogan, Ellata roared and her body began to change. Because she hadn't lost her flesh, there was another evolution available to her, aside from Bone t.i.tan. Her body lessened to about 2 meters, but in exchange, not only did her muscles and bones become tougher but her once dead blood had been replaced by pure mana blood vessels.

Her rotten equipment broke apart, just like her once rotten body, and her bare body was covered in red bone armor. All of the karma she had ama.s.sed in her life (Perium) sublimated into a greater form: her armor.

[Lv7 t.i.tan Armored Knight - Ellata]

She was repaid for the karma she'd ama.s.sed for so many years, but she wasn't the only one that had changed, now was she? The Giants, who were hidden deep with their territory, couldn't endure the surging power and they all roared and came out of hiding. Right now, they were all being reborn as new elites!

[Lv6 Elite t.i.tan Knight]

[Lv6 Elite t.i.tan Rider]

[Lv5 Elite t.i.tan Soldier]

Hundreds of Giants overflowed with new strength and new mana. The heat caused the ice, which hadn't melted for dozens of years, to melt and flow into currents of water, and even that water soon evaporated.

The ground was exposed. The earth that had been hidden for so many years along with the t.i.tan's Heart was so pure and clean as if blessing the Giants.

”Oh...”

Jin, who had been freed of lugging Lee s.h.i.+n Woo around for a change, saw the Giants as they roared from all directions and could only say one thing.

”I feel like it'd be a cinch if we fought Ethan Cruz now...”

”Don't be careless. But against Metafel, yeah, we won by a landslide.”

Kratia, who'd finished with the intense manufacturing and had obtained the fruits of her labor, wiped her forehead proudly. Creating this golem had significantly increased her skill level in artifact manufacturing, so she couldn't help but be happy. However, what made her even more happy was...

”Go get him, t.i.tan.”

The fact that she'd brought back a legend with her very own hands.

[Yeah.]

The t.i.tan, Lee s.h.i.+n Woo replied.

The t.i.tan, which had returned in the form of red bones, took a step forward.
