I took one step forward, just one. When that happened, I was surrounded by countless spikes made of water.
When they closed in on , I quickly used Flash Step and avoided getting skewered.
I launched a fireball at the pig and he jumped out of the way. Huh, I'm surprised he's able to do that considering how fat he is.
...
Let's see just how long he can keep that up though.
I began to throw multiple fireballs at him and I watched as he managed to keep his tail from getting caught on fire.
"Dance pig, dance!"
"Y-you-!"
I threw another wave of fireballs and they managed to hit him. That was until the smoke cleared that I saw a do made of stone.
Earth Do... right.
When the pig thought everything was alright, he let down his Earth Do. I launched a Shadow Fist at him, sending him crashing into the wall.
I smirked as I fired countless fireballs at the ceiling above him. The stalactites broke and they were now plunging towards him.
However, the stalactites stopped right when they were about to hit him. Slowly, they were repositioned and now they were facing .
Oh... shit.
They soared towards and I used Fallen Descent to send the spikes off course.
I took a few steps back while sending a wave of fireballs at the pig. In return, he sent a wave of water spikes at . I'd jump to move but I couldn't lift myself. That's when I realized that my feet were trapped in the ground.
This bastard, he caved my feet in!
Not only that but I also felt so kind of rope tighten my arms. But when I took a glance, there weren't any ropes, it was chains of dark energy pinning into the ground.
The pig snorted as he approached .
"Foolish human, you really thought you can stand a chance against huh? Sadly, you are just like every other human. Weak and naive! Soon the demon king will take over this world and none of you will be able to stop it. Not even the heroes, especially you, Inept Hero."
...
"Hmm? What's wrong? Are you feeling accepting that you aren't speaking?!"
He then whacked with his staff.
"How wea-"
WHAM!
"Oof!"
The pig flew back and landed in the pool.
"What the-?! How-?"
"Aura Barrier, not only is it useful as a shield against magic but it's also good for nullifying mana. Though it only works if I'm not pinned. You should've tightened the chains a bit harder," I said as there was a red and white aura circling around .
"You-!"
Suddenly, the pig opened his mouth and a stream of blue flas burst towards . I quickly jumped away before tossing another round of fireballs, this ti I made them deliberately slower.
"Hmph, you should know that I myself also know how to control flas. Ha!"
But when the pig tried to take control over my fireballs, it didn't work. That's when the fireballs began to glow and then they exploded.
"Gyaaaaah!"
[Skills Obtained: Volatile Orbs(Lvl.1)]
[Volatile Orbs: Using flas, send rounds of fiery orbs that detonates near your target(s)| Effects: Throw Flaming Orbs that cause an explosion to ensue near your enemy| Conditions: Consus 100,000 mana per round]
...interesting...
I watched as he fell deeper into the lake. I walked over and placed my hand into the lake.
"Have fun turning into bacon,"
Then I began venting flas into the water, imdiately creating vapors.
[84,719,420/100,000,000]
[84,214,624/100,000,000]
Hmph, despite having so much mana, it's decreasing by a hundred thousand per second. I can keep this up but I'll eventually run out.
I took my hand out of the lake and it was surrounded by smoke. Hmm, I have resistance to flas, but not hot water. Kind of stupid...
Glancing back at the lake, I saw the pig struggling to swim up to the surface. Then flas ca out of his mouth again and even out of the water.
I Flash Stepped back and watched as the level of the lake declined.
Those flas, that must be his Inferno skill. Pure blue flas, aning they are extrely hot. My flas aren't at that level yet so I doubt I would be able to avoid a burn or two.
Once the lake was drained, the pig climbed his way back up.
"I'm surprised you haven't been cooked yet," I taunted.
"Cocky hero, I'll send you to the underwor-!"
Before he finished his sentence, I struck him with a Shadow Fist which sent him back into the hole.
I'd run to dive and attack him there but my feet were stuck once more.
"Tch, bastard."
I used Fallen Descent and smashed the ground into pieces, then I jumped down and followed after the pig.
Splash!
I landed in the water and swam up to get so air. Looks like there is still so water left.
"HA! YOU FELL FOR IT, FOOL!" The pig yelled as the water around began to move.
I looked around and swam for the nearest wall but I could feel it getting stronger. I looked over my shoulder and watched as a whirlpool ford.
Quickly I used Flash Step to get out of there and I managed to do it. I used Wolf's Blood and turned my attention back to the pig.
"Tch, you managed to get out of there. Not surprising coming from a hero."
"I prefer you don't call that."
"A hero is a hero, so let's continue this unless you are willing to give up."
"I won't give up until you beco part of my breakfast. I am getting a little hungry."
"Tch, stubborn hero."
I threw another round of fireballs at him but he controlled them and sent them back at . I did the sa and controlled them to go back after him. Then he controlled them. It went off for a while but I eventually let them co to before I dodged.
Hmm, maybe I should try those last fireballs I did.
I launched a round of Volatile Orbs and they slowly moved towards the pig. Again when the pig attempted to control it, he was unable to.
"W-w-why can't I c-c-c-control it?"
When they got closer, they glowed brighter and exploded.
"Even though you are a demon, you are no different than a pig. I think I've toyed with you enough."
I jumped and broke two spikes off the ceiling.
"Ti to die."
The pig used his staff to get up and stumbled as he did. He glared at and snorted before slamming the end of his staff into the floor.
"You've given no choice but to use this."
A red and black aura appeared around him and he suddenly began to chant. Hmm, this doesn't look good.
I took a step forward to try to stop him but I suddenly tripped. Then I felt sothing wrap around and I couldn't move anymore.
"Hmm?!"
"Stay still, you are one of the first to witness this."
He then resud chanting as I struggled to get out of whatever he bound with.
Suddenly, I saw so kind of portal appear behind him.
1... 2... 3 of them appeared and the entire cave began to shake.
"I open... the Den of Gluttony!"
And out of those portals ca out behemoths. They slamd into the ground and I was suddenly free of the binds.
When I got onto my feet, I noticed he was fleeing down a tunnel. Fuck, I just realized there was another exit.
I would go after him now but I have a bigger problem right now.
The behemoths in front of began thrashing around, breaking the walls and creating large craters in the floor while bellowing.
I drew my recurve bow out and began to fire at them, however when they hit, it didn't affect them.
I took out all the arrows I had and began charging them.
Flash!
I looked up and suddenly one of them was above . I quickly Flash Stepped out of the way before I got crushed.
Flash!
I slamd into a wall but when I turned around there was only a large hungry behemoth with an open mouth, ready to devour whole. Again I managed Flash Stepped out of the way before I was eaten.
Flash!
My charged arrows were ready and I released them at the behemoths.
The arrows flew around and flew towards the behemoth but the tentacles on their backs were troubleso as they managed to deflect so of my arrows and they even ate so too!
I went to get another arrow but I realized I had just used them all. I folded and strapped my bow back while retrieving another round of stalactites from the ceiling. However, when I jumped to get one, the feeling in my legs disappeared.
I looked down at my legs and they weren't there. Below was a behemoth with half of my legs in its mouth.
I fell onto the ground and almost fell into the whirlpool.
F... FUCK!
[Status: Critically Injured]
I rolled back to watch that the three behemoths were fighting over my legs. Those fuckers!
I used Quick Regeneration on my legs and I watched as they slowly began to grow back.
Thump-thump-thump!
I heard footsteps and I glanced at the behemoths. They had stopped fighting over my legs, but now they were headed for and they looked hungry.
That swine! Once I see him again, I'll kill him. I will!
But I don't think I'll be able to get the chance. The behemoths were already headed towards and the only thing I could do was throw Volatile Orbs, but that will only slow them down.
I can't use Flash Step because I need legs to perform that.
I looked over at my legs but they won't be able to heal in ti. So this is it, huh?
I looked down at the whirlpool and then back at the behemoth.
...maybe. But it's risky... but do I have a choice?
I stretched for the ledge and I was ready to fall down until-
BOOM!
I felt and heard a loud explosion or what sounded like an explosion coming from the direction of the behemoths. When I turned over to see what it was, there was a black Kitsune standing in front of .
Could it be-?
"Master, are you alright?"
Kiyomi rushed to my side and lifted up. My legs had fully regenerated too. How convenient.
"Y-yeah... Kiyomi, why are you here? Didn't I set you free? Why did you co back to ?"
"I... I don't have anywhere to go."
"So you ca back to ?"
She was silent and shuffled around before saying yes.
"Besides, without , master won't be able to clean his room."
I scratched my head knowing she was right. My room is beyond ssy right now.
"GROOOOOAAARRR!!!!"
The behemoths got back up and slamd into each other before noticing us.
"Go master, I'll take care of them, you go after that demon," she said as she extended her claws.
"Right. I'm counting on you," I said before I rushed into the sa tunnel that pig had fled through.
"Good luck, master..." Kiyomi whispered before she refocused her attention on the behemoths.
