To the Depth of Abyss

Chapter 36: What the fu*k, a Demon?!

"That's, Royal Hornet Lance?!"

Everyone noticed the black Lance Ars is holding.

For those who stood behind Ars, it amazed them. For those who stood in front of Ars, it threatened them.

Henry felt goosebumps, but he wasn't afraid. "What family are you from?! Nine-tailed Fox?! Black Dragon Knight?!"

"Whose family is that? Also, Black Dragon Knight? There is another dragon besides me here?"

It intrigued Ars. It turned out that Abyssal Terra is really the fantasy world he had hoped for. There are other dragons besides Fafnir in that world.

Ars got more excited. "Putting that aside, I say it again, I'm doing this for myself. But yeah, if you ask which family I come from? I come from the Greedy Dragon Family."

"Greedy Dragon Family? Never heard of it! Who is the leader of that family?!"

"All of you are witnesses of the birth of that Family. And you are dealing with the leader of the Family himself."

Apparently the name of a family was strong enough to make your enemy shudder.

Henry laughed sarcastically after knowing their current situation. "I understand now! You are a fool who tries to achieve your stupid dreams only with passion! I see, I see!"

Henry thought that Ars was actually a weak person who tried to act cool. He's like the Main Character who acts cool, but in the end, White Wood, Ltd. and his party mates would fight alongside him.

Henry felt stupid because he was afraid because Ars was holding the Royal Hornet Lance.

"Since it's like this, I have no other choice, we will kill all of you right here, right now!"

All of Zhang's men gathered around Ars, both near and far.

Ars, who was still motionless from the start, thought: "As I thought, this is where I will do my first murder."

Somehow, Ars didn't feel scared at all. He was about to commit his first murder - to kill a human - even so, he had absolutely no doubt in his heart.

Somehow, he was so ready - his determination was unstoppable.

[Unlimited buff: Greed of Fafnir]

Ars's defense is so free.

One of Zhang's men darted towards him.

Boom!

No one knows what just happened. But an explosion just shattered the ground in front of Ars.

[Trophy earned: A Hero]

[Killing humans]

"A what?"

Ars had just committed his first assassination, by smashing the Royal Hornet Lance into the first person to attack him.

Everyone was shocked, not because of the murder Ars committed, but because of the power that Ars released.

Ars was only swinging the Royal Hornet Lance down, but it could create quite a violent burst of wind.

Henry regained consciousness after sculpting. "What are you waiting for?! Kill him!"

All of Zhang's men were ready to attack again. The first to launch the attack was the Archer who shot magic arrows at Ars.

Another explosion occurred right at Ars's position. Everyone thought it was a crushing blow. But no, suddenly the Archer who had just attacked got killed with a sword stuck in his chest.

Ars is still alive, and his existence has become very threatening. Now they all know the terror Ars gave them.

"Attack! Fu*king kill him!"

All of Zhang's men raised their weapons again, intending to kill the traitor. But on the contrary, the traitor slaughtered them instead.

Henry got goosebumps. His legs shook violently as he saw all of his men - even some of them are Gold Hunters - being slaughtered.

Men from White Wood, Ltd. and Randi's group got goosebumps too. Wonder, is he the Ars they know?

Ars finished slaughtering all of Zhang's men, except for the Right Hand. "All right, now, can you show me the way to the dungeon?"

It terrified Henry. He did not want to obey the order, but his feet said differently.

"Forgive me!"

Henry ran in the direction Zhang went - the dungeon.

Ars store the Royal Hornet Lance, then goes after Henry.

"Ars!"

Before Ars left, Randi called him.

His best friend saw him with a worried and questioning expression. But Ars doesn't care.

"Clean up these trash before I come back!"

Ars gave an order before going into the depths of the forest.

___________________________________

Jimmy and Zhang start their fight.

Jimmy uses a high two-handed sword art. Whereas Zhang uses two swords combined with martial arts.

Their battle was fierce, considering they are Hunters of one generation.

However, there is a slightly significant difference. Jimmy can balance Zhang because he wields a strong magic sword. [Sword of Testament], the magic sword belonging to Sword Saint, Legend Hunter, Satria.

"Tell me, Jimmy, is that guy really still alive?!"

Zhang could easily fight while talking. But Jimmy was already overwhelmed enough to endure Zhang's attack.

In one moment, Jimmy swung his sword and forced Zhang to jump far back.

"It will surprise you. That bastard lives in peace in this forest. "

Jimmy tried to buy time so he could get his breath back.

Zhang took Jimmy's rod, feeling so excited.

"Great! Then I'm so lucky! I will kill you, take the token, and take away the power of the Sword Saint! That way I will become the strongest human, nothing can stop me!"

"Like you can do it."

Jimmy raised his sword once more. He's ready for the next round or two.

Elisa is so confused. He could do nothing but sit back and watch the fight.

He was eager to help, but [Staff of Hope], a tool for her to use magic, fell behind.

'If I had a spare vessel', she thought regretfully.

[Mana Vessel] is a means to use the Abyssal Art. In other words, a magic tool to use magic.

[Mana Vessel] is used to preventing the user from direct contact with the Abyssal Radiation.

Elisa is just a Silver Hunter who is just starting her adventure. That's why she didn't have any other [Mana Vessel] to use.

When Elisa felt useless, Zhang's men who were beside her tried to do something.

Zhang's men used catapults to shoot stones at Jimmy.

"Don't!"

Elisa tried to block him, but it was too late.

Jimmy notices something shot at him, then manages to dodge. But instead, he got hit by Zhang's kick and thrown backwards.

"What are you doing, bad girl!?"

Zhang's men slapped Elisa to the ground.

Jimmy forgot that the enemy he had to face wasn't just Zhang.

"How, sir, hero? If you ask for mercy and tell the location of the Dungeon Token and Sword Cheater, maybe I will spare your life."

Jimmy got up, wiped the blood from his cheek, then replied: "Then what will happen to the girl?"

"I will make her my slave, of course. Maybe I'll also use her as bait to get that Cold-bitch Princess out. "

"Great." Jimmy gripped his sword tightly. "Now I have a bigger reason not to lose to you."

Zhang accepts Jimmy's last challenge. "Then, die!"

The two men shot forward, each holding their weapons.

As they drew closer, Jimmy's sword gave off a bluish mana light.

Zhang was aware of the magic incident, but it was too late for him to do something.

Jimmy put the brakes in his midst. The [Sword of Testament] which was on the right side, he swung horizontally to the left. Zhang was still several meters ahead, but the mana that came out of the sword created a slice that split the space and pushed Zhang into the wall.

The attack shocked the two people who didn't participate in the fight.

Zhang's men sculpted. He didn't expect his boss got defeated like that.

Without realizing it, the man who defeated his boss was in sight. Hit him so hard that he hit the wall, then fell unconscious.

Jimmy has already beaten Zhang and his men. But as a consequence, he lost his sword, the only weapon he was holding.

"Once you have released the mana that binds this sword, this sword will immediately disappear."

That's what the [Sword of Testament] giver said to him.

"Most importantly, we both survived."

Elisa started to show a relieved expression after seeing Jimmy's victory.

A strange voice suddenly sounded. The sound was like a monster chewing flesh and bones.

The voice came from behind Jimmy. Elisa, who first noticed the source of the voice, suddenly turned pale.

"You think this battle is over?"

Tit ~

Without realizing it, Jimmy and Elisa's Abyssal Hunter rang. A sign that they have got a new Trophy.

A man whose stomach was about to split open stood up as if nothing had happened to him.

He just threw away another man's corpse, which was half of the man's body got eaten.

The man who had just eaten the body of his subordinate - Zhang, recovered his body, which shattered by the [Sword of Testament] attack.

"Aahhh, that hurts a lot. Who would have thought that the sword had such a great power? But alas, it looks like that sword can only be used once."

The one standing in front of them was no longer human. Zhang has turned into something Jimmy didn't expect.

Jimmy tries to protect Elisa, but suddenly, Zhang disappears and appears in front of him.

Zhang immediately choked and slammed Jimmy's body against the wall mercilessly.

"Gah!"

His condition was out of control because Zhang was no longer human.

"You made this happen, Jimmy. Everything will become easier if you obey my orders from the start. "

Jimmy couldn't wriggle, helpless. Zhang's strength was no longer at the human stage.

Elisa couldn't do anything. Her face even turned pale, like stale milk.

"Boooooosss!"

Suddenly they heard the screams of other people who ran into the boss room.

"BOSS!"

It's Henry who should be outside. But at that moment he ran like being chased by a demon.

"What is wrong?!" asked Zhang.

Henry confused because he did not find his boss. Then when he realized that the monster who was choking Jimmy was the boss, he became even more scared.

"Wh - who are you?!"

Henry backed away in fear. Suddenly he stepped on the sticky liquid blood, which had come from a half-depleted corpse.

"Wa - waaaaaaaaaaa!"

Henry fell on his butt. He could not stand fear anymore.

"Say, why are you running scared like that!?"

The cowardice of his men angered Zhang.

"What the fuck!"

Another person comes into the room.

Zhang remembered the voice. He is a man who should tie a contract with him.

"A Demon?!"
