Chapter 116: CHAPTER 115 - Unnamed Gigglewrath (Raged).

There were three Gigglewraths following Alex, but that was before they came out of the zone, the moment they got out of the zone, they decided to move separately.

Right now, they were all in their rage forms, their bodies were now thin, their legs and hands had elongated, their skin striking close to their muscles and bones, almost as if they had no blood in their bodies.

The fat on their bodies—their protruding tummies, their chubby legs, and their small hands—had all vanished as if it were never there.

Their eyes were now sunken, and wide open, unlike the squinted eyes from before.

Their bodies had turned scally, clearly showing their elevated defenses.

The things that stood out the most, however, were their wings; the wings, which were around 30 to 40 centimeters wide before, had now turned 1 meter wide each, making the total wingspan reach 2 meters, just a bit smaller than their height.

They looked perfectly demonic right now, flying alone at a speed that no human could even follow.

"ARGHHHHHHH!!!!"

All the humans could do was scream in agony as they were burned by the hellfire shot at them by the Gigglewraths.

The humans within Meerut were now all hiding in some kind of shelter, not wanting to get caught by the Gigglewraths, as that would just mean that they were looking for their own deaths.

The Gigglewraths, on the other hand, kept flying around the whole area, their sharp and angry purple eyes getting locked on any movement they could find.

"KRIKKKKKKKK!!!!"

Be it beasts or humans, everyone faced the wrath of those three demonic imps who were out for Alex.

But no matter how much they tried, the Gigglewraths just couldn't find Alex.

Now, where was Alex?

He was lying on top of a pile of debris in a multistory building, listening to the countdown from the AI.

The building was broken beyond repair; there was no place for anyone to live in the building anymore, but the bases of the floors were somehow still standing.

Only the spot enough for someone to stand was left around the pillars of the building, and among them, there was a pillar that had space enough for Alex to lie down on.

Yes, it could break down with the slightest tremble, but Alex was being very cautious with it.

He was on the fifth floor of the building, which was just a foot higher than the height the Gigglewraths had been flying at.

Only after a long observation had Alex decided to take these steps; the dim light of night helped him as well.

Although the Gigglewraths were nocturnal, the silence of the night helps.

He kept lying there with his breath held in, not wanting to let the beast notice his presence, or else everything he planned would be gone in just an instant.

*Flap**Flap*...

He could already hear the sound of large wings being flapped along with the sound of wind whistling, but he still kept quiet.

He had already seen the status of one of the Gigglewrath that had been moving in this area, and to say that he wasn't nervous would be a white lie.

[[Name: Unnamed Gigglewrath (Raged).

Race: Demonic Imp.

Title: --

Stats:

→ Strength – Level 20 (Tier 1)

→ Defense – Level 19 (Tier 1)

→ Agility – Level 20 (Tier 1)

→ Stamina – Level 20 (Tier 1)

→ Mana – Level 20 (Tier 1)

]]

Those monstrous stats were something that made Alex a bit relieved about the decision that he had made before—the decision of not facing more than one Gigglewrath at a time.

For the first time, Alex had seen a beast with such balanced stats, so much that if not its defense was a level lower, then the beast would've been a beast with capped strength of the level 20 zone.

The next instant, though, he stopped his train of thought and focused on the countdown.

The moment he heard the AI's hurried words, he clenched his fist, and the next second...

*Fwish* X5

His mana drained at a very high speed as five arrows were shot toward the Gigglewrath that was just below Alex, next to the fourth floor of this building.

Till now, Alex had been controlling the arrows with so much precision that he slowed them down to a speed that made them look like they were not even moving.

He was doing just so the Gigglewrath wouldn't notice the arrows in the surroundings.

But controlling those arrows like that was almost as if he had been elevating them without momentum, causing his mana to expend like sand slipping out of one's fist.

The sudden increase in speed just added to the mana consumption, causing his mana—something he had elevated to level 19—to get short by 60%, leaving only 40%.

The Gigglewrath, on the other hand, was quick to notice the arrows headed from multiple different directions, and it roared in anger. Sёarᴄh the nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"KRIIIEEEEKKKK!!!"

This attack reminded the beast of the puny humans it had slayed before; some of those had tried to ambush it just like this, but they seemed to forget that it had wings and could fly higher.

*Flap*

It flapped its large wings, elevating its body up, trying to avoid the arrow headed for its body, but...

"Kriek!"

Its eyes widened the moment it saw the arrows suddenly changing direction, turning toward it again, causing it to let out a surprised yelp before it roared again.

"KRAAAAAA!!!"

With its attention on the arrows, it failed to notice the human that was now right beside it, ready to jump at it.

The fact that all of those arrows gave out the smell of a different human didn't help the beast, making it believe that there were five different humans hiding below, shooting arrows at it.

It would've never thought that all of it was done by the human who was just behind it, cautiously trying to gain a perfect foothold as the beast was a bit far away from the distance he had predicted it to be.

The beast spread its wing, ready to fly higher, intending to avoid the arrows, but...

*Clatter*

A piece of debris fell down from the small pedestal Alex was trying to gain a foothold on, causing the air to freeze.

Alex gritted his teeth as he found out that his foothold was about to crumble.

The beast, on the other hand, has its eyes widened and its body jerked as it turned around with a lightening movement, intending to cleave the one behind itself into two.

But the moment the beast turned around, it found a palm right in front of its eyes, and the next second...

*Grab*

The palm grabbed its head, causing the beast to freeze again, only for a second though, as the moment Alex grabbed its head, its wings gave out, unable to hold the weight of a human.

Alex had jumped straight at the beast and held its head with his palm as a cold light flashed through his eyes, his hold on the beast's head tightening.

*Grip*

The beast, however, roared in unfiltered rage as its eyes fell off Alex's face from between his eyes.

"KRAAAAAAAAA—!!"

It ignored the fact that it was falling to the ground and might get injured from this height; it slashed its sharp claws at Alex and was about to use its hellfire ability at Alex, but its roar was cut short as the next second...

"—KIEEEKKKKK!!!"

Its raging yell turned into a pained scream.
