Chapter 292 - Monstrous progress

The winged bloodline was awesome.

Alex had felt its might when he fought against Wolfen Demon, for Stella’s Ultimate Skill could bring out the most of it. After that battle, Alex just slightly raised his affinity with it.

And as Stella had been part of the winged race from birth, she didn’t know how to nurture the bloodline. In her case, it was just instinctively going up, for she was a talented girl wielding holiness and wind.

She told him it would be the best climb up the mountains leading to her tribe. Other than that, facing wind enemies would be his second option. But on his starting continent, Alex didn’t know any powerful wind enemies.

He also didn’t have time to search for them.

But as Wind Demon came out, Alex’s heart jumped in joy. His wife’s bloodline within him reacted abundantly, blessing him with powerful effects. Even though he was in battle lust mode, he already wanted to hug Stella for her gift.

Still, the latter soon prevailed, for Stella was nowhere around. With his eyes brimming in killing intent, Alex balled his hands into fists while his Asura’s hands clenched the swords tightly.

He activated his peculiar ability, [Alexander Deathwill’s Soul Eyes], locating the demon’s soul, “I have located his soul. Even if we can’t wound him, you girls can help me make a way to his soul, killing him for eternity.”

Alex reassured the fairies, who had nodded attentively to his words. Following his guidance, the fairies formed a unique pattern of attacks, aiming at the demon’s stomach.

Surprisingly, his soul was located here.

With a few cuts on the stomach, Alex would be able to get to the demon’s soul, scratching and killing him.

But for now, it was time for something else, “Let’s have a fun, demon.”

Alex would use the demon’s black wind to push his own winged bloodline’s evolution. Today, he wanted to advance it to have fully grown-up wings! He didn’t know whether the demon’s black wind would be enough for it.

However, as their levels were somewhat close, with the demon being stronger by ten levels, Alex believed he would be able to at least advance his bloodline halfway to maturity…

And soon, he might have a flight together with Stella, “And with other wives, too.” That was his most prominent desire within him right now.

With those feelings thumping in his heart, Alex launched a series of attacks at the wind demon while fairies followed their pattern.

His swords oozed out sword mana, adding wind element to it. The coldness from the bone swordsmanship’s skill and the wind collaborated in harmony, creating the cold tornadoes around the blades.

Alex’s hands formed the wind magic around his palm, too, “I should think of a name for this combination.”

After those words, Alex threw them all onto the monster.

BANG!

[Critical Strike! -5071 HP!]

“It’s a critical strike, yet his body barely got any visible wound! He’s gonna be tough, girls!” Alex shouted, preparing for a close combat clash, which would help him the most.

He naturally joined other fairies, who were striking the demon’s stomach with their wooden weapons. But as if waiting for Alex, Wind Demon suddenly wickedly smiled, his sharp wind becoming stronger.

In one strong gust of black wind, Wind Demon pushed away everyone except Alex!

He tilted his head so much it seemed like he would drop it onto the ground soon, gazing into Alex with confusion in his eyes. How could this human survive this powerful blast that cost him around 10 000 mana points?

Alex also didn’t know. Perhaps, his body was too strong with so many unique skills lined on him. Nonetheless, as he had a rare chance to fight one versus one with the demon, Alex pounced like a beast on the demon.

His enemy waved his stretched-out hands like a weirdo, his arms bending to attack Alex from weird angles. Of course, the sharp wind carried those attacks, adding penetrative power to all his skills.

But as Alex’s instincts were high, his swords blocked all assaults. He closed up distance with the demon relatively fast, calling back his blades.

While his swords returned to his side, ignoring the enemy’s arms, Alex punched the demon a few times. With his heavy legs, the demon couldn’t move at all. His arms were far away too.

Alex covered his hands with sharp wind, relying on magic and abundant strength points. He wasn’t foreign with punching, so he did a good job inflicting some damage before his swords returned.

And as those did, Alex pushed them all into the monster’s upper body. He aimed to get to the demon’s soul from all angles. Of course, as he kept doing that, the black wind assaulted Alex, his wounds opening.

But more than anything, his winged bloodline continued to advance significantly! That joy and progress eclipsed Alex’s pain as he continued thrusting his weapons deeper into the demon’s body.

At last, another progress occurred.

[Your bone swordsmanship has significantly increased.]

[You have received a new passive effect, The Butcher(A)]

“AHHHHHHHHHH!”

The Wind Demon shrieked, his voice booming in everyone’s ears, drawing the attention of every fairy and monster toward him. Everyone noticed Alex and his blades drawing more blood and flesh through his swords.

Rare, purple blood fountained from the monster’s sides in abundance. Such a copious amount would’ve drowned many four-legged monsters already!

Alex extended his hands, wrapping them around the demon’s thin body, “You aren’t running away.”

Although it seemed impossible, for the demon had heavy legs, Alex felt that the Wind Demon could use his black wind to fly away. Even if he couldn’t confirm it, Alex wouldn’t waste this opportunity, dallying while his swords did the job.

He boldly kept the demon in one place.

At the same time, Wind Demon cast more black wind around himself, swathing Alex in the black tornado, to no avail. He couldn’t fly away or wound Alex as the young man’s winged bloodline kept advancing.

In this battle of endurance, Alex’s eyes shone brightly. For a few seconds, his eyes turned golden, exactly like Stella’s.

And from his back, the adult-sized wings sprouted, slapping away the black wind as if they couldn’t bear such low-quality wind in their presence!

[Your Winged Bloodline has matured.]

[You have killed Wind Demon Lv. 100]

[You have leveled up.]

[You have leveled up.]

Alex’s outstanding progress continued! And alongside him, the future’s strongest forest fairy’s battalion advanced as well.

[Author’s note: One magic castle gift – 5 new chaps. But if someone really sends me a castle, give me a time please haha.]
