Villain in a Fantasy World; I Level Up by Conquering Villainesses-Chapter 100: Taking on a Challenge [2]

DING!

~----~

[You have triggered a new System Mission: Lose Yourself!]

[Mission Description: You’ve taken on an ambitious challenge! Face the trio of the Giant Roc, the Thunderbird, and the Pyreton all over again in an intense 3v1 battle to the death!]

[Mission Difficulty: Extreme.]

[Mission Reward: +2,500,000,000 EXP and +25,000 DP!]

~----~

’2.5 billion EXP?’ Seeing the thread of system notifications, Julian’s eyes gleamed as his grip on the Hell Piercer instinctively tightened.

His aura exuded bloodlust.

"...!" Standing beside him, Elena was alarmed.

"You want to take on the 3 Qi Beasts at the same time???"

She panicked, she felt like the training just went out of hand. Knowing that alone, she would likely not be able to persuade Lord Zaratul, she thought of seeking help from Sir Alfred immediately.

And almost as if he could tell the thoughts that were going through her head, Julian looked at her with a grin.

"Don’t worry, I appreciate the concern but I don’t intend to throw my life away," he raised his chin high arrogantly. "I’m too proud to die".

"I’ve fought against the 3 Qi Beasts individually already, I know their weaknesses. They won’t be able to kill me".

"I have a plan".

"I want to push myself and see what comes out of it".

"Afterall, what’s the essence of training if you don’t push past your limits?" Looking at her, he grinned. "As an Awakened of the Warrior Class, you should understand what I mean".

Elena opened her mouth to retort, but no words came out.

In the end, she sighed in resignation but then she said. "If I see that your life is in danger, I won’t hesitate to jump into the battle to stop it".

She bowed apologetically. "I’m sorry my Lord".

Julian didn’t even pay attention to her as he chuckled. "You won’t get the chance to intervene".

Elena nodded, then she took a deep breath and stepped aside to the corner again before controlling her qi to search the chains hanging in the ceiling, locking on the same species of Qi Beasts again, then she broke the seal.

Immediately, the ancient Qi Monsters that were sealed inside emerged- a Giant Roc, a Thunderbird, and a Pyreton.

They were Level 50, Level 55, and Level 54 respectively.

Individually, these Qi Beasts already had oppressive auras and an intimidating presence but when they emerged together, their auras converged to form a literal qi tsunami.

BZZZZZ!

The 3 of them were highly territorial Qi Beasts, their innate bloodline pride would not allow them to tolerate the presence of each other but there’s a saying that goes- ’the enemy of your enemy is your friend’.

In the end, the 3 Qi Beasts had a unifying factor between them and that was the fact that they were all Qi Beasts, while the existence currently standing before them was different, he was a Demon!

Instinctively, they focused on the Demon and snarled.

A clash of will and presence erupted immediately as Julian’s own Dragon bloodline flared as Dominion Aura triggered instinctively.

Julian felt like he was carrying the weight of the entire world on his shoulders.

DING!

Julian rapidly paid attention to the thread of system notifications as the Snooping Tool triggered instinctively, confirming that these Qi Beasts didn’t have any new surprise for him.

That was the last thing that he was able to do calmly as in a single millisecond, the 3 Qi Beasts changed from a state of inactivity to a state of raw aggressiveness!

BAM!

Lightning Arrow!

A thunderbolt blast shaped like an arrow shot out of the glowing eyes of the Thunderbird as the rabid mythical bird of prey attacked first.

But being prepared for it, Julian didn’t stay in one place.

Blink!

He disappeared just before the thunderbolt could strike him on the chest having predicted the attack ahead of time, knowing just how aggressive and swift Thunderbirds were.

The 3 Qi Beasts immediately switched targets as they scanned their surroundings, searching for the Demon but Julian didn’t appear beside them.

Instead, he appeared above them.

His qi flared.

Dragon Breath- Fire Blanket!

KABOOOMMM!

Thick tongues of flames blasted out of Julian’s mouth in a large blanket, instantly engulfing a large part of the training chamber and dealing AOE damage as the 3 Avian predators screeched angrily.

The Thunderbird reacted more agitatedly because of the 3 Qi Beasts, though it was the fastest, it was also the weakest physically and its weakness was Fire.

The Thunderbird was Julian’s first target, but this time, his tactic was not all-out attack.

His tactic was more strategic.

Psychological Invisibility!

Partial Invisibility!

Amid the wild orange flames burning and engulfing the entire training chamber, rapidly increasing the temperature inside the chamber, the Demon disappeared!

Julian blended with the fire, becoming one with it and becoming indistinguishable from it.

They couldn’t find him!

The Qi Beasts became even more flustered and angry.

Weather Manipulation!

The angry Thunderbird that was already in a state of Wrath triggered its innate ability as thick storms immediately materialized inside the training chamber, kicking up a commotion as thunder and lightning attacked indiscriminately.

The Thunderbird’s indiscriminate attack didn’t distinguish ally from foe.

Well, that arrogant act irritated the 2 other Qi Beasts as without hesitation, having forgotten the Demon already, they turned their ire on the Thunderbird!

This was the effect of Psychological Invisibility.

They already forgot that they had a common enemy.

Hurricane!

The Roc counterattacked, creating powerful hurricane-force winds to assault the Thunderbird even as with immense strength, it charged fearlessly into the storm in pursuit of the Thunderbird.

Scream!

KABOOM!

The Roc screamed, unleashing a devastating sonic attack that made the Thunderbird’s flight wobble and finally, this mythical bird of prey also became fully incensed.

In its wrath, just like the other 2, it finally also forgot the Demon.

The Thunderbird faced the Giant Roc!

Thunderclap!

BOOM!

The Pyreton was less aggressive and more sinister as instead of charging head-first, it stalked the pair like an Assassin.

All the while, they already forgot that they had a common enemy.

Slumber!

Unknown to them, they were already under the sinister effect of another Mage spell that was slowly eroding their instincts and lulling them to sleep.

The combination of the effects of Psychological Invisibility plus Slumber completely negated the danger sense of the Thunderbird as this Qi Beast’s keen senses hit an all-time low, and yet it didn’t even realize it.

That was when the Pyreton struck.

Shadow Mark!

Shadow Paralysis!

Stone Skin!

Rocket Jump!

With Shadow Mark, the sinister Pyreton reduced the Thunderbird’s defense while increasing its own offense.

With Shadow Paralysis, it forced Paralysis on the Thunderbird, making it freeze and struggle to maintain its flight. It couldn’t paralyze the Thunderbird completely but to the mythical Monster, this was enough.

Enhancing its defense with Stone Skin, the Pyreton finally went on the attack as it launched itself on a rocket-like jump at Mach speed!

And yet, that was when he attacked.

With the danger sense of the Thunderbird negated, and with the Pyreton helping him to lower the Thunderbird’s defense and restrict its movement, Julian finally revealed himself.

His qi flared.

Slow!

Stop!

Blink!

Hellfire!

Elemental Infusion!

SHWING!

Just one swing of the Hell Piercer was all it took.

The Thunderbird’s eyes were forever frozen in disbelief and terror as in one attack, the blade of a mighty Spear separated its head from its body!

One hit, one kill!

DING!
