Chapter 42: Killing Mountain (3)

I wreaked havoc and cast several spells towards the scarlet-colored humanoid.

It was hard to keep my conscious while [Berserk] was activated since the effect of [Berserk] was to multiply attack, defense, and speed stat by 2 at the cost of bringing out the caster's monstrous nature.

I lunged myself towards the humanoid while thrusting my sword made out of elements towards it.

The humanoid dodged in return. It seemed the person who was controlling the humanoid had started to make the humanoid move.

It doesn't matter even if the humanoid moved since I already found out it's a weakness.

Since physical objects don't work or any object that has space, volume, and mass, how about if I used space itself?

I would had used time if I knew how to cast it.

I cast [Black Hole] towards the humanoid and its body started to be absorbed by the magic-made black hole.

*Warning! Storing the humanoid inside the system is the same as sealing it so it will not be considered as killing or eliminating it!*

So I can't seal it? Well if I did seal it then it was just the same as what the Gods did.

I instantly removed the black hole that I had cast. I was somehow relieved that there wasn't any part of the humanoid that was stored in the system inventory.

I took out the priceless artifact that I got from the dragon king's cave.

It was a red and orange colored 2-meter long sword, had some ancient language engravings and the bottom of the hilt had a golden dragon with a hole in its mouth.

I unsheathed the blade and cast [Void] to envelop the sword with space energy.

I slashed it recklessly in different directions since my mind was suddenly influenced by the [Berserk] skill that I had cast.

I tried to calm my mind and breathed a huge breath to calm myself.

I looked towards the humanoid and I was lucky enough to sever the left arm from its body.

The humanoid didn't attach its severed left arm since it was hindered to do so by the [Void] that I had cast.

I launched myself towards the humanoid at full speed and then I was in front of it in an instant.

I used my [Swordsmanship Mastery] skill to perform multiple quick slashes towards its right arm, left leg, and right leg.

The humanoid's body flopped to the ground since it wasn't supported by its legs anymore.

The humanoid only had its body and head left. Its limbs were scattered on the ground.

The [Void] prevented the humanoid from reconnecting every limb that I had severed.

I looked down and pointed my sword near the humanoid's neck.

"Any last words?"

I asked without any expectations for the humanoid to speak since it doesn't have a mouth, to begin with.

"All of you will soon kneel to the God Of-"

"That's enough from you."

I interrupted the humanoid from speaking and sliced its head off from its body.

The humanoid had not spilled any blood since it doesn't have any organ.

*Ding!*

*The host has completed the Y+ Rank Task. The host has earned a favor from the gods. The host has obtained the skill known as [Influence Hatred] from the symbol of hatred.*

*Ding!*

*The host has earned a new title. The title known as Favored God's Child has been obtained.*

I am satisfied with the title I got but I got [Influence Hatred] from the symbol of chaos which made me a bit angry with my bad luck.

I was hoping I would get [Physical Attack Immunity] or [Pass Through Matter] since it would drastically improve my skills but if I did got it, then I would hardly experience hardships.

*The host should be satisfied that the host's luck had increased by a bit but it is enough to not let the host slip from another banana peel.*

The system was indeed right. But what would I do with such a useless skill?

Wait... Since it was named as [Influence Hatred] then I should be able to influence hatred unto others. Isn't that equal to manipulate someone?

Why do I felt that I'm straying from the good path and I'm currently walking on the evil path?

Well, I don't care anyway since this was not my world.

Even if it was Earth, then I would have the plan to create a weapon that could be used for mankind's extinction.

After all, they were the monsters who did 'that' to me and forced me to do 'that'.

Maybe I was indeed wasting a wish if I wished to become human again. I'll think about what wish I want until I defeated the demon lords.

"Cough!"

I coughed out blood and I felt an intense pain in my heart.

I lied down on the ground and squirmed when I felt the pain of being stabbed in the heart.

It was one of the backslashes I got after my array got activated. It seems that the array that I had set up was activated.

It was one of the reasons why people rarely become an array master. It was because of a certain backslash that varies from different arrays that the array master had set up.

There were also requirements for setting up an array such as the requirements I need to fulfill when setting up the [Tree Binding Array].

The first requirement was to had a tree as a medium for the array. The second requirement was an affinity with nature magic and the last requirement was 10 million mana.

If the array was triggered, then there was an intruder or intruders. I should hurry back or my teammates will be harmed especially Aerin.

"Cough!"

I coughed out blood again. I experienced another intense pain in my heart. It was as if my heart was being burnt.

Did another array got triggered? The opponent must have tried to break out of the [Tree Binding Array].

It was a futile effort for the opponent to try and escape from my arrays. After all, I made a few backup arrays that even Sophie and Zale didn't know about.

"Cough!"

I experienced another intense pain in my heart as another array was triggered. It felt as if my heart was being ripped into shreds while being burnt.

Did the [Magic Proof Array] got triggered? If so then the opponent must have thought of using magic but the opponent didn't know that I was this cautious and prepared to even learn about [Magic Proof Array].

I learned about the magic array in the Elven Library and further studied it during my travels.

*Ding!*

*The host has acquired a new skill. The passive skill known as Pain Immunity has been acquired.*

*The Pain Immunity is currently at Level 1. The host should increase its level since it is very useful.*

Damn the system! I'm not a freaking masochist! I acknowledged that I am arrogant but never a masochist.

I sometimes show my sadistic tendencies and my prideful side.

"Arghhhh!"

The pain kept on torturing me for 10 minutes. It was the type of pain where you would rather die than getting tortured.

*Ding!*

*The host has leveled up a [Pain Immunity] skill by 2 levels. The [Pain Immunity] skill is currently level 3.*

The pain slowly subsided until I didn't felt any pain in my heart. I should remove the arrays that I had set up at the small house or I will be suffering much more worst than this.

But if I did, then I won't be at ease if Aerin was safe or not. I should suffer than let Aerin be in harm's way. That's what a fiance should do, right?

Why do I felt that I'm much more responsible after I took care of Aerin than I was back on Earth who only produced weapons of mass destruction without thinking of the consequences of the things that I had done?

I stood up from the ground and examined my surroundings.

The Killing Mountain was filled with different intents as usual but I was able to withstand the aura that permeates the Killing Mountain.

My strength had drastically improved. Even though my intelligence and wisdom Stat didn't improve that much, my intelligence and wisdom stat still improved by 10 million stat without calculating it with the 5 times stat multiplier.

My attack, defense, and speed stat improved by 15 million and if it was multiplied by 5, then it was 75 million.

I am sure that I will be able to defeat supreme demons with my pure strength alone but I am still not sure if I can contend with an archdemon.

That being said, I need to go back to my teammates since they might need my assistance.

I ran as fast as I could to reach Holy Church.

They must be waiting for me to deal with the invader or invaders.

********

Pedonar's PoV:

I was bound by the tree for an hour.

I don't know when I would be able to break free from this but I hope it's sooner because I might need to urinate.
