Chapter 2000 He Stood

Chapter 2000 He Stood

RUMBLE!!!

The world shook.

At that moment, every lifeform native to the dungeon felt a single emotion in its highest, unadulterated form.

Primordial fear.

Tranced or otherwise, they could feel it in their bones.

They could feel the eminent clash between two unstoppable forces. Forces that may as well have been calamities of nature.

Unfortunately, they were not wrong.

The moment came sooner than Rui could have ever expected.

From within the depths of the core of the dungeon, he saw it.

He saw the objective of his operation.

He saw what he had dedicated the past two years to overcome.

He saw the Master-level beast that guarded the core of the Mellow Dungeon.

And it evoked a single emotion from within the depths of his heart.

Horror.

Pure, unadulterated horror.

It was a monster.

A true monster.

It was an amalgamation of every monster nightmare, every monster drawing a child had ever drawn, every visual manifestation of the concept of a monster.

It was worse than them all.

It had multiple heads.

A dragon, an angel, and a phoenix.

Its body appeared to be a hybrid fusion of countless creatures. It contained both the scales and the feathers of a phoenix and a total of six pairs of wings: four angel wings, a pair of dragon and phoenix wings each.

It was as though someone had butchered various lifeforms and then tried to mash them into a single creature.

Its very appearance evoked horror in the hearts of all living beings that beheld its grotesque, monstrous form.

It was a monster.

It obliged.

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSHHHH!!!!!

With a single flap of its angel wings, a mighty tornado was conjured—one with the power to level a mountain range. A calamity with the catastrophic power was spawned with minimal effort.

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSHHHH!!!!!

With a second flap of its angel wings, the titanic attack surged towards Rui at the speed of lightning. An attack more powerful than anything Rui had ever experienced flashed towards him.

It threatened to erase him.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM!!!!!

In that moment, the world may as well have died.

At that moment, heaven and earth screamed in pain as the chimera effortlessly inflicted a horrifying wound on it.

The tornado, which gouged a crater thirty kilometers deep and wide, triggered an unprecedented tsunami that crashed into the Mellow Dungeon, threatening to wipe out all life in the blink of an eye.

Countless creatures died instantly.

The sum totality of the aquatic ecosystem of the Mellow Lake inside the Mellow Manifold died.

It died on the spot.

No living being in the dungeon could survive its horrifying might.

No life form in the dungeon could resist its horrifying might.

Or, so it thought.

Yet, there he stood.

There he stood, within the depths of the abyss. Within the depths of the abyss birthed by the creature's horrifying power, he stood.

Countless wounds littered his body.

Yet, he smiled.

He stared a horror among horrors in the eye.

Yet, a wild grin emerged on his face, brimming with endless excitement.

At the bottom of the abyss, he stood grinning as he took his signature stance.

"What's the matter? Is that the best you can do?"
