Chapter 609 Facing A C Rank Monster Alone



-----

Ding!

[The [Holy Spirit of Death] of amused by your current slaughter, he asks for more souls!]

[He has sponsored 500000 Gold Coins]

[The [Holy Spirit of Fire] seems fired up by this development, he wonders if you truly will fight that Boss solo…]

[He has gifted you [Elixir of Flames (Mythic Grade)] so you can have a better chance!]

[The [Holy Spirit of Love] is interested in your romantic development with Clarice and Alianna. She promises good rewards if you can conquer their hearts.]

Suddenly, as I charged forward with everyone else in this intense battlefield, three Holy Spirits showed up. I appreciated their help and how they allowed me to free myself from Lucifer on its totality, but I still am yet to get used to them seeing my life as if it were some sort of livestream.

Well, I appreciate the gifts, something Lucifer never bothered giving to me at all. The Holy Spirit of Love is also taking a lot of nonsense, aside from Eleanora, Erika, and Elizabeth, I am not interested in any other woman, so I will simply ignore her request.

And this Elixir I got… It might prove useful, but it seems that its effects don't last that long, I cannot recklessly use it right now. I will leave it until the very last moment.

"G R A A A A A A H H H!!!"

While I saw everyone fighting intensively against the Fiery Grizzlies, a giant blazing bear rushed towards me, raising its gigantic claws. Its powerful blazing aura was overflowing greatly, boosting the monster's stats through the roof.

However, I quickly took out Gluttony from my shadows while pointing with my handgun at the approaching bear's head.

BANG! BANG!

Several ice crystals began growing over the bear's head, but it had yet to die. I see, the stat boost probably more than doubles their stats, it means it might end up dying at more than five bullets, but well, I've got a swifter way of doing it.

"[Armor Crusher]! [Bone Piercer]!"

My spear's entire body began to glow with a black and red aura, as I unleashed two powerful attacks against the Fiery Grizzly's head with it swiftly. Thanks to the Fenrir I was riding, its movements were swift and precise, easily helping me land all hits without missing.

CRAAASH! CLAAAASH!

"G R A A A H H H…!"

The bear's entire head gained countless cracks as if it were a coconut, and then shattered into pieces, falling into the floor with the rest of the body.

"One down… Twelve more to go." I smiled faintly, seeing as over twelve more bears came charging towards me while I was rushing towards the Boss.

I was already going around the entire army of Fiery Grizzlies and even then, the Boss had a squadron of "guardians" that wouldn't let me easily get closer to their King.

"Hendrick, Saphira."

"Yes, milord!"

"Okay papa!"

Hendrick and Saphira stepped forward as they quickly unleashed their Skills and Magic. Hendrick was the fastest and most efficient due to his long years of work as my servant and assistant. He immediately summoned countless threads made of paralyzing toxins, wrapping round over six bears with them, and immediately stopping their movements.

"[Paralyzing Thread]! [Slice Frenzy]!"

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!

The bears were too strong to be sliced apart completely by mere threads, but the threads were sharp nonetheless, easily slicing apart the bear's skin and leaving them covered on poisoned wounds.

Meanwhile, Saphira suddenly breathed air and screamed her lungs out, conjuring her [Haunting Scream] Skill and making all the surrounding foes that heard it become confused.

"BAD BEAR!!!"

F L A A A A A A A S H!

"GRAAAAH"

"GRUOOHH…!"

"GRYYEEH!"

The bears started screaming in agony one after the other, incapable of concentrating properly. But that wasn't all, Hendrick and Saphira continued their attacks. Hendrick materialized his poisons into gigantic and sharp blades, sending a storm of them against the approaching beasts.

"[Poisonous Blade Toxins]!" Roared Hendrick, as the blades began piercing and poisoning the bears constantly.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLAAASH!

Meanwhile, Saphira prepared her second attack, shapeshifting her own body by using the [Spectral Body] Skill and then forming over a hundred gigantic claws made of phantom using [Phantasmal Claws] which she then materialized using [Phantasmal Materialization]!

"HYAYAYAYAYAYAYAH!!!"

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLAAASH

The bears screamed in agony as they were hurt even further. Several of them quickly dropped dead on the spot, and the ones remaining alive were taken down by my handgun and my spear.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!

Ruby, meanwhile, as a juvenile, was struggling to be of much use in a battle where many battle experts were fighting. He was giving us support with his Blood Fire Breath Attacks, but that was it. I told him he shouldn't get here because he wasn't experienced enough, sigh.

"GROOOOAAAARRRRRRRRRGH!"

[The Ferocious C Rank Monster [Volcanic Grizzly Tyrant] greets you with a deadly [Wrathful Roar]!]

[A powerful pressure emerges from the roar, attempting to lower your stats by -50%!]

[However, due to the power of your unwavering heart and mind, you are not affected by intimidation effects.]

"Well, there you are." I smiled faintly; the enormous beast greeted us.

It wasn't a King as I believed, it was an evolved version, the Volcanic Grizzly Tyrant. The Grimoire has become rather useful now, as it can even alert me when a powerful foe shows up, and even showcases the abilities they use when they activate them, much like "reading" a book.

I wonder if this was the true power of the Grimoire, to let me see the entire world as a Book and grants immense benefits at that. Nonetheless, I suppose this is not the time for that. I think this might be the first time I fight something at C Rank in a while, ever since the Necromancer's invasion at my village.

[Various Holy Spirits are watching you.]

[They are cheering for you!]
