Chapter 449 445: Everyone VS The Strongest (2)



"Careful there, don't wanna hurt others, do we?"

A loud thud resounded as the Giant's body finally fell meters away from where they were. Birds flew to the skies and trees broke off from the impact.

Immediately, the ones around me came rushing in. Charging in first faster than most people could perceive was werewolf.

His muscles tore through his clothes and he swung his claws at my neck. I adjusted the sleeves of my shirt as I gently tilted to the side to avoid the attack.

"Titania, you wanna sit somewhere else?"

The wolf stared at his hands in confusion. It had most definitely attacked, but nothing connected.

"How in the world...?" He muttered as he started attacking once more. "AWOOOO!"

His attacks were incredibly fast, and incredibly wild. They were tough to predict, yet all of them seemingly passed through me.

The efficiency in my movement was worlds apart compared to the wild hound's. I clenched my fists then and slammed it straight into the werewolf's chest.

A sonic boom spread all over the place, dozens of more trees blasted away from the air pressure alone.

Drool spilled out of the werewolf's mouth before his body curved into an arch and flew far away.

I yawned and looked back at the rest of them, the Elf King and the dragonnewt seemed to be donning wide smiles while the others were filled with tension.

They stopped lazing around, two more charged at me at the same time. Anamis, the dog-eared beartfolk dragged a club through the ground while a lizard man came charging in from above with a large spear in hand.

I took in a sharp breath and met them head on. I grabbed the approaching spear with one hand and twisted its trajectory to stab into the club rushing in from the side.

Nimbly, I turned my body around and slammed my foot into Anamis's side, but before she could fly off, I pushed my leg further up into the next guy and sent them both reeling away.

The others had stopped this time.

I blinked.

"[Giant Tree Fortress]!"

The dryad made the first move.

"[Spathi]"

Lushan followed right behind. Hundreds of roots came rushing toward me while an enormous sword as big as a mountain formed in the sky, all of its strength pointing straight at me.

"Catene," I muttered and the chains around my neck transformed into a baseball bat once again. I wanted to scream at the useless chains, but held it in.

"Stage Zero."

My presence returned in front of the world as the lowest realm of strength opened up. We had all agreed on no lethal attacks, so this was enough. Everyone was keeping things in, if Kai had opened his gates or Bael had used his authority, I would have had to at least switch over to stage four to take them all down.

I swung the bat up and clashed with the sword. It was tossed away like a baseball and broke into the Tree Fortress that had sent roots after roots at me. Before any of the roots could touch my skin, the sword and the fortress flew far far away.

In the blink of an eye, I jumped behind the Dryad and smacked the back of her head before switching over to Lushan.

"You—"

"Sorry, principal! I hope Mrs. Assistant is doing good."

With those words, I slammed my knee into his stomach.

"Come... for some tea and... meet my children... someday too..." The principal dropped a huge bomb and fainted right after.

Children!? What Children!?

Two more down. I was done with half the numbers but there were still way more than five left. It hurt my head just thinking about it. Thankfully, at the same time, Charlotte had jumped up from the back and had started swinging her sword at Bael and Yvas.

"H-hey!?"

"Charlotte Fonias! What the hell are you doing!?"

Before me, Charlotte had turned Heaven and Hell upside down, it was only natural.

"You fuckers, you think I am 10th!? That you fucks of all are stronger than me?"

"We have to defeat Eugene Hall!"

"You piss me off more!"

Well, so three more were out. I turned to the side and found my dad, raising his hands up.

"I don't wish to fight you, child."

"Huh?"

"I think my wife would say the same, but she isn't here." Then, my dad, Han Jun Ho, suddenly bowed. "I wanted to thank you the last time too."

"Hey you!" I rushed over and stopped him from doing so. "It's alright, you don't have to bow what the hell?"

My dad then placed a hand on my shoulder and patted me a couple times.

"It was around this time five years back too, you remind me a lot of my own son. My wife agreed too."

"I am... sorry for you loss."

With those words, I patted him too and turned away. Where the hell was Kai? Staying around my dad was far too awkward, I had not the guts to say anything.

I found Kai at the back, removing his shirt in disgust and rushed to him.

"You are next!"

"What?! Wait wait wait! No more puking! I give up!!"

I had heard him, I turned back and let Kai handle his wardrobe issue. I felt for him a little.

Only two more were left.

The Elf King and the Dragonnewt.

I stopped in front of them and cracked my knuckles.

The Dragonnewt raised his hand and shook his head.

"I am not one to fight my allies. You have proved your abilities more than needed, the title of rank one is not to my taste in the first place."

"I met your son," I told him. "He's a good kid, he'll grow strong."

The Dragonnewt smiled.

"It is good to know you think so."

Only the Elf King remained.

The Elf King was the one with the most at stake here, while I understood the others, it seemed unlikely that he would go down without a fight.

But...

He wouldn't be able to fight.

The Elf King simply raised his hands.

"I have no doubts in your physical capabilities, but do you know?" The Elf King asked.n0VeluSb.c0m

I did.

The Elves fought using the powers of the Elementals and the Spirits, spirits that existed as a fundamental energy holding every world up.

But.

In this place, no spirits dared run amok while I was around.

All of them were utterly terrified of me. That was also the reason I had opened the first stage.

Just like fairies from Alfheim, in the Elves' world. Elementals lived in the Niflheim. The Elf King had summoned the Elemental kings from that realm, but not a single of them remained to fight.

"They won't dare attack me," I told him.

"It seems so... You are, a walking Cataclysm. If this is the case then even when I seem to have no choice?"

I nodded.

"I do not agree yet, but I understand my position." The Elf King sighed. "I shall leave my world in your care against the Outer God."

"Don't worry, nothing would ever be able to beat the strongest."

And so, the tops had their ranks changed once more.
