"Under no circumstance, can we let this monster use its unique skill. It would LITERALLY, become an Ice Age."
The expressions of the spirits/human/demon who heard his words turned solemn, however, they could not ask any questions as the frost boar king roared out loud as it stomped its hooves on the ground, making the earth underneath its feet tremble.
The next moment, it kicked off the ground and charged forward with speed unexpected by its enormous body, signifying the start of the group's last boss battle in the mansion of the damned.
The speed of the frost boar king's charge was on a totally different level from the other frost boars, as it crossed the nearly hundred-metre distance between it and the party in less than two seconds.
Naturally, there was no way that the group would stand still and let themselves get hit, so they all jumped out of the way instantly.
The boss room trembled as the frost boar king's missed charge resulted in the large monster slamming itself into the wall.
While Evan wanted to admire the sheer strength possessed by this creature, he knew this was not the time and focused on the fight.
Coordinating with the high demon who jumped towards the opposite side, the young hero engulfed his sword in flames and dashed towards the sides of the large five-metre-tall boar.
Their flame-engulfed blades swished through the air and slicked into the thick hide of the boar, causing it to roar out in pain as their flames melted through the thin layer of ice around it and pierced its flesh.
Evan and Pride frowned simultaneously as they pulled back their blades and moved out of the way, seconds before the boar pulled its horns out of the wall and turned around while roaring loudly.
Its red eyes darted across the room, seemingly looking for something before Landing on Eliza who had retreated to a corner of the room.
Seeing this, Pride instantly sent a message to Amy who was on Eliza's shoulder to warn the battle priestess, however, this was quite unnecessary as Eliza had already seen the creature turn its attention to her.
It stomped its forelimb on the ground with enough force to crack it slightly, before shooting forward in her direction at full speed.
Eliza instantly created a horizontal barrier, not to use for defence, but as a foothold to jump up in the air and avoid the boar's charge.
The monster slammed into the wall once more, however, Evan noticed that its horns didn't dig as deeply as before.
'It'd be easier for it to escape, not enough time for me to reach and deal as much damage as I want without using blink. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on NovєlFіre.net
A card I can't reveal yet.'
Those were his thoughts as he killed his charge towards the monster and backstepped instead, not before catching sight of the monster's pupil turning in his direction.
Evan could have sworn he heard a dissatisfied grunt coming from the boar king as it casually turned around and stomped its forelimb into the ground.
'Did this thing just try to bait me into attacking?!'
He didn't have the time to verify his conjecture as the ground trembled and he felt magic power flowing underneath his feet.
The young hero immediately reacted, utilizing the footwork technique Finley thought him to weave his way out of all the spots that he felt magic power concentrating on, with each step being a second before a spike of earth erupted from the ground.
His movements were swift, making it look like he was dancing in a way, however, he was also preparing a counterattack while moving.
The moment the trembling stopped, Evan rose his palm and revealed a ball of red light that was looking like it was about to burst.
Seeing this light, the boss monster let out a surprised sound as it knew it was seeing condensed magic power, but it could not sense the magic at all.
That was only natural as Evan had used his concealment skill to conceal the magic power he was condensing in his palm, releasing it as a beam of light shooting through the air the moment the frost boar king's spell stopped.
The frost boar king, Ocsuat, moved its large body to the side in an attempt to dodge the spell, but sadly, it still got hit as the condensed beam of lame energy tore through the thin large of ice it used to coat its body and burnt its hide.
However, Evan's intention was never for Ocsuat to get hit by the stack in the first place, with the boar king realizing that a beat later when it sensed the presence of the other humanoid female suddenly close in on it.
Pride swung her demonic energy-infused sword in an upward arc as she called out softly.
The blade easily tore through Ocsuat's ice skin spell, the thick hide it had underneath, and its flesh altogether, causing red blood to splash in the air.
It screamed out in pain, but that didn't stop t from attempting to retaliate. Its short tail moved to swayed slightly before suddenly straightening and pointing in Pride's direction.
The high demon clicked her tongue as she noticed this from the corner of her eye, coshing to retreat instead of completing her attack sequence.
That proved to be the wise decision in this case, as numerous jagged icicles formed in the air and dropped down on where she was standing.
Evan who was about to move forward and attack the boar's other side, momentarily stiffened upon recognizing the technique Pride just used.
'Is this...fear? I'm scared of her sword?
No, it's not my fear...it's 'his'.'
As he had the memories of the previous second, he naturally remembered that technique as that was what Pride used to best the hero in one of his battles against her.
However, the fear he felt came from the fact that the technique was what cost the hero his arm and leg once, and if the previous first didn't interfere, his head would have been gone too.
