Harmless Sparrow acted as quickly as she can because, in a blink of an eye, she was right next to the Slave Trader that even the former did not expect it. With a swing from her flaming blade, she swiftly slashes the neck of the Slave Trader cleanly so that it didn't even spill blood at all. The head fell and toppled after it got separated from its body.
Harmless Sparrow then land on her feet as she sheathed her weapon back to her waist, but...
"Look out Sparrow! The battle is not yet over!"
BANG!
Harmless Sparrow barely dodged the attack but she was unharmed. She pulled out her weapon again and she saw that the headless Slave Trader has grown its head once more. As for the head that got cut off, it grows another body, identical to the original body, with all the clothes and equipment on it. As a result, a second hulking Slave Trader appeared before us.
In short, the single slave trader became two.
"What the heck? This f*cker divided itself into two!" Sparrow didn't like what she had seen. After all, she cut off its head but then will just have another body for it to move again.
"Get ready for a long battle, Sparrow! I think we are up against something annoying this time around!"
The Slave Trader is not that strong but he was an annoying enemy not because of his attacks but because he can multiply himself by dividing himself. Sounds confusing? You see what happened earlier, that's how it was. Once its body has been cut to pieces, each piece will regenerate another set of bodies for it, basically multiplying its numbers but because it needs to be dismembered in some way, it was like division.
So yeah, more annoying if I say so myself.
"Sparrow, just kill the guy normally! Don't cut him to pieces or else he will start to multiply again!"
But that is the big problem with this guy. He will deliberately allow himself to be cut to pieces just so he can multiply himself and if the enemy won't do so, he will just do it himself. The only way to defeat him is to keep hitting him without getting dismembered or decapitated in any attacks. He is also immune to magic so it's another annoying problem that I can't use any skills that will allow me to engulf him in flames or bathe him in electricity.
I created a [Kekkai] to seal up the first Slave Trader first so that we can focus on our attacks on the second one but the f*cker is smart enough and dodges it by putting his weapon out before the [Kekkai] manifest and blocked it from fully creating an enclosed jail. He then tears it open like a madman and walks out from it as if nothing happened.
The moment he got out of the [Kekkai], I pulled out the Pain Delivery and shot him and his other clone in the head multiple times. However, from the looks of it, not only the magic spells make him immune, even the bullets too which is f*cking annoying as he absorbs both bullets I shot off.
"F*cking sh*t, he is also immune to that?!" I cussed before running towards the slave trader and changed my weapon into the Hands of Midas, and started punching the f*cker like crazy. Thankfully, I am higher level than the Slave Trader since I have already reached level 200 and my stats are pretty much very high already but that doesn't mean everything is over. The moment I killed the other half that spawned after Sparrow cut off its head, the remaining Slave Trader saw that I already figured out its weakness and decided to cut his own hands on his own this time around.
The Slave Trader cut off his left hand and right leg, immediately spawning three more Slave Traders. Sparrow was about to stop the guy from doing so but she was hit by a gunshot by it. Thankfully, she didn't get killed by it as it just grazed her.
But now, the Slave Trader is now multiplying and spawned two more f*ckers. He also regenerated the lost limbs back as well.
"I'm sorry, Bladeheart! I couldn't stop the guy from multiplying in time!" Sparrow picked up her sword again as she drank a potion to restore her health.
"It's not a big problem but we have to deal with him as soon as possible or else, we will just be on a loop of killing his clones over and over again!"
Gripping the Versatile Weapon on its gauntlet form, I asked the Shadow Dragon if it wants to eat the Slave Trader but the Shadow Dragon shook its head and rubbed its stomach which means, it is f*cking full. Damn, what the heck did you eat? I thought you would be a little bit greedy, why are you avoiding food now?
The slave traders were about to cut off its body parts again when gold chains appeared and wrapped off its body, rendering it from moving any funny moves.
"Looks like I arrived just in time. Looks like you guys are having a hard time?" Sigma appeared, with her arms crossed and the chains she controlled, freely tying up the three slave traders.
"Not really, it's just that this annoying f*cker is dividing again and again. We just needed to deal with him as fast as we can without cutting him to pieces but knowing him, he will deliberately cut himself up. Sparrow is not able to help much as her magic is rendered useless and her sword easily cuts off the guy to pieces, prolonging the battle."
"I am sorry for being useless," Sparrow scratches her head as she kicks the Slave Trader multiple times.
"Why you didn't just let your weapon devour this guy?"
"I tried to let it do so but it doesn't want to eat and it keeps on telling me it is currently full."
"Unfortunate, but there is a way to kill this guy right?"
"Yeah, anything that would deal blunt damage will do the trick."
"Sucks then since my current weapon is a greatsword and most of my skills are all sharp things but I can keep it restrained and you go for the kill then."
"That would help a lot."
Sigma controlled her gold chains of hers and tightened up the three guys without holding back, slowly lowering its HP. I jumped in front of the first Slave Trader and started punching repeatedly on its body. Because the big guy is not able to even move due to the chains, he became my punching bag for a few minutes before he died from the excessive beating.
I repeated the same thing to the second trader and also killed it just the same. When it comes to the third, it tried to run away by trying to break the chains to pieces but because the gold chains of Sigma are indestructible since it was from her skill, it only continues to stretch the chain but did nothing to it.
"Stop moving you little b*tch!"
I charged up my punch and punch his head with all my might, causing his head to burst and die, ending his life in the process. I know that he got divided once again after his flesh exploded to pieces but because the way it was done is being killed by punching, it was not counted which was weird but that's just how his revival was always done. He died as a result but that is a good thing as I am tired of him. If Sigma didn't come along to restrain him, I would have had no choice but to ask for the others to distract and stop the guy from moving so that I can deliver the final blow.
"Looks like the guy is dead. Did you get any loot or experience points?" Sigma asked.
"Sad, but no. It seems it was a boss that has no experience value given once killed," I answered as I look at the log and see that there are no rewards for killing an annoying enemy.
"Seriously? No rewards at all? All of that for nothing?!" Harmless Sparrow is angry. After all, she was rendered useless in the battle due to how the guy was designed. She was pissed.
"Anyways, now that the guy is gone, let's get out of here. The boss is waiting for the good news."
Stretching a bit, I grab an [Area Teleport] and tear it to two, teleporting us out of the area as the body of the Slave Trader disintegrates.
...

...
When Bladeheart and the others are gone, one guy appeared behind the trees not too far from the location of everyone. Because they were too busy dealing with the Slave Trader, he was not spotted at all. He smirks as he turn his back and disappears once more.
