Apocalypse Cheater-Chapter 119 Superior Divider

"Is this truly the final city?" I asked.

My eyes traced the remnants of a once vibrant city that now lay charred and broken before me.

"Yes, this is the last city where there were reports of the monster that was responsible for leading the Monster Break"

Beside me, Bella nodded gently in response to my inquiry.

Her expression was a kaleidoscope of emotions.

I could sense her weariness, her hope, and her lingering doubts.

It was all mingled and blended into something indescribable.

Although she was confident in my power, she had never expected this kind of outcome.

The sight before her was an awe-inspiring display of sheer strength.

It was unlike anything she had ever witnessed before.

If she were to compare him to anyone she knew, less than ten individuals would even come close.

Even then, this was a compliment.

But amidst this overwhelming display of power, a sense of security settled within her.

Inevitably, her reliance on me grew.

It was as if I had become a strength and pillar of support in her life.

"Then, I suppose it's time for us to bring an end to this chaos and save the people from their suffering"

I declared.

"Yeah..."

A slow nod accompanied her agreement.

But just as I was about to embark on my first step, Bella reached out and tugged at my clothes, hating my tracks.

"Bella?" I turned his head, perplexed by her sudden interruption.

I looked at hers, silently questioning why she would stop me.

"I-I just want to say... be careful,"

Her words were laced with a tinge of worry.

It was impossible for Bella not to be concerned despite my ability to overpower these monstrous creatures with apparent ease.

Her support and genuine concern for my safety were both reassuring and fulfilling.

"Alright," I responded, mustering a reassuring smile before disappearing from her sight.

*Boom*

A burst of power coursed through me as I engaged the monsters.

Relying on my skills, I wiped them out swiftly and efficiently.

With each passing moment, I harnessed the power of light, manipulating it to my advantage.

Yet, I didn't stop there.

I commanded the forces of wind, ice, and fire to engulf my enemies.

Frozen, burned, and sliced, the monsters were left powerless against my relentless assault.

But amidst the chaos and carnage, I didn't forget to protect the people.

I weaved through the battleground, rescuing those trapped in despair, ensuring their safety with each second.

However, a challenge awaited me.

It was a monstrous boss that stood as the pinnacle of evil.

Its presence commanded attention, an embodiment of nightmares and malevolence.

"Is this the one responsible for the catastrophic Monster Break?"

I muttered to myself, my voice filled with mockery.

Time seemed to stand still as I stood before the colossal titan monster.

Its imposing presence cast an eerie shadow over the surroundings.

The creature before me bore the name of Kuthluk, a moniker that suited its grotesque appearance.

With the head of an elephant adorned with twisted black wings and two long, sinewy tails tipped with hardened bone.

It was a sight both awe-inspiring and dread-inducing.

In its clutches, Kuthluk held a sacred wooden cub, a sinister symbol of its dominance as the monster boss.

Its level, far exceeding that of its lesser brethren, reached a staggering approximation of 800.

As I stood there, dwarfed by the enormity of its form, an unsettling smile crept upon the monster's face.

It relished in its superiority, delighting in the vulnerability it sensed radiating from a seemingly insignificant human before it.

To Kuthluk, I was mere prey, a fresh morsel it could feast upon to satiate its insatiable hunger for destruction.

Without a hint of hesitation, the monstrous creature lunged towards me.

With each thunderous stomp shaking the very earth beneath my feet.

Its relentless charge carried an air of impending doom, but I didn't falter in the face of such adversity.

In normal circumstances, clearing this quest would have required the combined strength of numerous guilds.

According to the original timeline, this quest was meant to be undertaken nearly six years later.

It will be when Princess Bella's demise cast a shadow of despair across the entire continent.

The situation back then was dire.

But now, less than two years had passed, and it fell upon me to undertake this seemingly impossible task.

I evaded the monster's assault with calculated agility, sidestepping its path with a single fluid step.

Yet, this behemoth was no fool.

Anticipating my move, it swung its cub in the precise trajectory where I would be, mere milliseconds away from impact.

In a daring feat of acrobatics, I sprang upwards, narrowly escaping the cub's deadly trajectory by a hair's breadth.

As my body soared through the air, a surge of power coursed through my veins, driving my every action.

With a flourish of icy energy, I conjured sharp spears that tore through the air.

Each aimed with precision at the monstrous creature before me.

Yet, to my dismay, the ice was effortlessly deflected, my attack seemingly in vain.

A knowing smile graced my lips, unfazed by this temporary setback.

I had anticipated this resistance.

Taking on a monster boss nearing the formidable level of 800 was no small feat.

My capabilities, while formidable, still fell short in terms of raw stats and power.

However, I possessed a valuable arsenal of skills that could tip the scales in my favour.

In terms of brute strength, defeating a boss of this magnitude would typically require a coordinated effort from dozens.

Perhaps, even hundreds, of players at the same level.

Yet, here I stood.

Though it was hundreds of levels above me, I possessed the means to tilt the balance in my favour and overwhelm this monstrous foe.

I possessed extraordinary abilities such as regeneration, rendering me impervious to physical or magical damage.

It was these inherent "cheats" that instilled confidence within me.

It eradicated any apprehension I might have felt when facing this monstrous entity head-on.

Furthermore, I had yet to unleash my ultimate strategies, keeping my hidden cards close to my chest.

As I descended back to the ground, the monstrous creature's trunk was hurtling towards me.

It was aiming to pierce my body with a deadly blow.

However, to its astonishment, the trunk indeed passed through me, and to its dismay, there was no trace of blood.

Confusion etched itself upon the creature's twisted visage.

Its expression contorting in bewilderment.

Before it could process the situation, a tremendous impact collided with its chin.

It was a thunderous blow augmented by the force of my hidden power.

Pain registered across the monster's features, the outcome of underestimating my capabilities. 𝗯𝐞𝐝𝗻𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥.𝐜𝗼𝐦

A grave mistake it would soon regret.

*Thack*

I materialized beneath the massive beast's chin, my presence swift and elusive.

Drawing upon the essence of light, I focused and concentrated its energy within my leg

And I unleashed a torrent of luminous power at the precise moment of impact.

The force of my kick reverberated through the air.

Shockwaves rippled outward as the monster's chin absorbed the full brunt of my attack.

For a fleeting moment, the creature succumbed to the sheer strength of the blow.

It briefly lost consciousness as its hulking form teetered backward.

However, it found its footing, propelling the monster to rise once more.

*Roar*

Infuriated by my audacity, the beast declared that our playful encounter had come to an end.

It summoned forth its latent power, a transformation initiated by an innate instinct to obliterate the threat before it.

Gradually, its flesh hardened, resembling a grotesque suit of obsidian armour as black scales emerged.

It encases selected parts of its body.

A reddish aura crackled around its skin.

Inconceivable strength flooded its monstrous figure, doubling or even tripling its already imposing might.

Nevertheless, as the situation grew increasingly complex, I remained calm.

I wasn't afraid of this mounting pressure.

"So, you think you can buff yourself?"

"But who... who decides that?"

I smirked, a wicked grin etching itself across my face.

It was time to unveil one of the newest skills I had acquired, a power that defied justice.

"Superior Divider."

I uttered these two words with conviction.

An ethereal surge of energy emanated from within, flowing outward in an invisible wave.

In an instant, the monstrous creature before me experienced a dramatic shift.

Its overall prowess was halved.

The once intense red aura surrounding its body began to wane, dissipating into the air.

And its hardened skin reverted to its previous form.

Clueless and bewildered, the monster failed to comprehend what just transpired.

Yet, while confusion clouded its features, I revelled in the delight of my handiwork.

A smile danced upon my lips, a spark of amusement revealing itself as I relished in the monster's perplexed expression.

But I refused to cease my assault there.

The monster's prowess would continue to be halved until it was a mere shadow of its former self.

"Superior Divider."

With each invocation of the skill, the monster's power dwindled further.

Its once formidable might crumbled under the weight of my abilities.

"Superior Divider."

Again, the potency of its attacks was halved, reducing it to a mere fraction of its previous strength.

"Superior Divider."

And once more, the force it could muster was diminished, a mere glimmer of its original might.

"Superior Divider."

In the fourth iteration of the skill, its potency dwindled further, dwindling to a mediocre level.

"Superior Divider."

The monster's prowess is now reduced to a mere fraction of a fraction, a fraction of a fraction of its original might.

"Superior Divider."

And with each subsequent invocation, its power lessened exponentially, waning to minuscule proportions.

"Superior Divider."

Eventually, what was once a towering and arrogant monster became nothing more than a feeble shell of its former self.

Its potency was reduced to a mere 2% of its original strength.

From the peak of power to near insignificance, it took only five seconds for the heavenly divide to accomplish this remarkable feat.

The skill I employed, the Superior divider, was not without its price.

It exacted a toll, consuming 10,000 mana each second to sustain its effects.

As the monster vehemently resisted my divide, the cost grew more substantial, deleting even greater quantities of mana from my reserves.

But it wasn't something that greatly bothered me.
