Chapter 212 - Unveil

After having his conversation with Zero, Yuki headed inside the dungeon even though he had a lingering feeling telling him to turn back and enjoy some with his two new friends.

"Wait what am I thinking? Did I seriously believe that those two would ever consider me to be their friend? Even if they did, I would never call them friends of mine. I've dealt with this type of friendship in the past and it only led me to a whole lot of trouble. Even when things seemed to clear up and I had gained a family, it all came back to haunt me. I'm incapable of making friends," Yuki thought to himself as he walked through the entrance of the dungeon.

"I should start distancing myself from those two. It'll always only end with me getting in trouble. I don't want to go through the hell that I've already gone through ever again. I want to change. That change will start with me taking over the WD clan. Of course that would start with me getting a whole lot stronger and taking on the FFF clan first!" Yuki yelled out in confidence as he began his hellish 8 weeks which would only greet him with an endless amount of pain and suffering.

...

During those 8 weeks Yuki fought all sorts of monsters ranging in shape, size, colour, personality and many other factors. The only thing they had in common was that they were all greeted by a single human being which would bring their lives to an end, that human being Yuki.

...

"So you think you can take us down?! You must be pretty stupid if you genuinely believe that someone as weak as you could defeat a whole army of us. Now die!" an armoured man yelled out as he slashed at Yuki with all his might. Even when Yuki was able to dodge it, he would still be hit by someone else from his side or back.

"I told you that you can't win this. So just die already," said the same armoured man who looked to be part of an army in the medieval era as he carried a long double sided silver blade that tried to bring an end to Yuki's life multiple times over the course of their fight.

As the man went in for a slash, all of his comrades joked along with him as they also tried to kill Yuki once and for all. Unfortunately for them, Yuki wouldn't make things that easy for them.

"Activate ability: Fire control"

Yuki began to let out a large tornado of fire everywhere around him. It didn't matter if an enemy was in that area, Yuki just simply allowed all of his stamina to flow out of his body in the form of his flames which were hot enough to melt the metal which created the weapons and armour for his enemies.

"B-But how? You should be laying on the ground from exhaustion by now! Why are you still alive let alone managed to turn the tides of this battle?!" the medieval warrior asked Yuki who had many cuts all over his body as he walked out of the flames to face the warriors who were covered in melted armour.

"I don't care what you wish to do. I don't even care in any way shape or form as to what you believe you're capable of or why you want to kill me. This is a battleground, if you lose, you're simply weaker!" Yuki replied to the warrior who had asked him a question before grabbing the warrior by the head which was also covered in melted metal from his metal constructed helmet and then punching him right in the face. 

However, instead of giving up and dying like Yuki had expected, the warrior stood there with his melted helmet and bloodied face as he pulled his head back and smashed it into Yuki's face, causing Yuki to bleed from his nose as well.

"You're right about what you said earlier. Whoever loses this battle is clearly the weaker one. Unfortunately for you, I haven't lost yet either!" the warrior yelled out as he began to constantly beat Yuki up with his bare hands which were even covered in melted metal which made it harder for the warrior to land those hits. 

After a while of Yuki being on the losing side of the battle, things took a worse turn for Yuki as the warrior's melted parts began to harden and instead of getting simply hit by bare hands, Yuki was now receiving punches that were backed up with solidified metal. 

"I can already see it, I can see your dead body laying in the ground as I step over it like you're trash. I'm going to kill you!" the warrior yelled out as he continued to bombard Yuki with an endless amount of deadly punches.

"My head feels so heavy, all I want to do is sleep," Yuki said to himself as he began to close his eyes to get some rest.

"NO! Sleeping on the battlefield means death! I refuse to die here! I can't die! I want to rule WD, I want to become happy for once, I'll win this battle!" Yuki yelled out randomly as he began to regain focus.

At that precise moment, Yuki's luck would reach its peak as the metal which had begun to solidify on the body of the medieval warrior completely froze. While this would have seem bad at the start as the punches would be stronger, now that the metal had completely frozen and it had took a different shape which was less the desirable for the user of the armour, the medieval warrior which Yuki was battling against wolf face his greatest challenge as he completely froze in place due to him not being about to move in the now frozen metal. It was like he was turned into a half sculpture.

"No! Not now! Why now of all times?! I was so close to finishing him off-" the warrior began to speak before getting cut off as the Yuki who had yet to fall on the ground moved towards the warrior and slapped him across the face with all the power he had.

With just that single attack, it seemed like Yuki had caused the medieval warrior to go unconscious as Yuki's enemy was no longer giving back a reaction when Yuki began to get his own revenge by kicking the warrior who was now on the ground, still in that sculpture state. 

"Now what was that about you killing me? I would like to see you try!" Yuki announced. That would be the same moment where Yuki's amazing luck would turn out and take a turn for the worse as he was hit across the head unexpectedly by a metal bat.

"Hehe, don't forget about us now," said one of the other medieval warriors who had also been affected by the heat wave that Yuki had allowed to burst. The surprising thing about him was that he barely had any metal around his body. Along with that, he had a bat instead of a sword. The bat looked very heavy and larger than the sword that each warrior was originally equipped with. Lastly, unlike a regular bat, the one which this specific warrior had in his hand was that which looked to be dismorphed and unproportionate.

"I see now, so you wiped off the metal which I had melted and reconstructed it into this new weapon," said Yuki as he stared at the burned hands of the warrior which had attacked him, meaning that Yuki's theory was correct.

"Yes it is. However don't start thinking that just because you have this knowledge that you'll by some miracle be able to defeat me-" the warrior began to speak as Yuki who was bleeding from his head rushed to grab the bat out of the hands of the warrior before slamming it onto the head of the of the same warrior which had created it.

"I'm glad that you monsters can start speaking now but unfortunately for you, that same talking will be your downfall," said Yuki as he began to hunt all of the remaining warriors and started to instantly kill each and every one he managed to spot. Not an ounce of mercy was shown during the final stages of the battle as Yuki had begun to break from losing for a large majority of the battle then also being on the brink of passing out.

It was even a miracle that Yuki was able to go that long as he should have probably passed out king before he finished killing all of the warriors with the bat he had stolen.

In the end, Yuki was forced to once again break out of his small shell that he insists on putting up so he could make himself feel like a regular person. However the dungeons always have a way of forcing him to reveal his true nature.. That one being of a blood thirsty sadistic murderer.
