My legendary class is Husband Of Deathwill Sisters?!
Chapter 72: One for oneChapter 72: One for one
[You have used a Chilling Slash.]
[-212 HP!]
While the Deathwill Sisters focused on the four black wolf bosses, Alex faced the biggest threat in the forest.
The hungry demon, Wolfen Demon.
A six-meter tall monster whose aura and looks were so horrifying and dense that any weak-minded player would have lost consciousness already. For more hardcore gamers, such a monster would be an exciting challenge.
Alex had imagined himself fighting dragons just before starting the game.
Although Wolfen Demon was smaller, he was still in the category of giant and epic monsters. Nonetheless, for some reason, Alex lacked that thrill.
He parried all Wolfen Demon's charges with his sword. When the demon opened his mouth to let out a demonic beam, Alex would roll on the ground and avoid it as much as he could.
He would find ways to endure all threats without relying too much on Stella's skills. And in that battle, Alex also attacked back.
His swordsmanship brought more damage from his Ice Breath. His techniques were also more effective. How could his [Chilling Slash] not enormously affect his enemy with SS-ranked swordsmanship?
And as Alex focused on the first big wound he had done before, Alex stacked quite a lot of cold crowd control skills on Wolfen Demon's paw.
"Celia is waiting for her mother. Because you've destroyed Sara's armor so much, her daughter will be too worried about the future," Alex whispered.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBefore the battle, he had been pretty excited to exchange moves with the Wolfen Demon. But after seeing Sara's state, Alex realized that he had been severely underestimating the enemies on the Deathwill Castle's grounds, particularly those hungry demons.
"I must get rid of that player mentality when I am in touch with the residents of this world," Alex whispered, then glanced into Wolfen Demon's eyes, "You are no longer here, are you?"
Wolfen Demon's attacks didn't make any sense. He would slam his whole body onto Alex or throw a demonic beam. If under a sane control, the combination of those attacks would be much more lethal.
Other than those two, Wolfen Demon would also howl. His howls had been trying to break Alex's soul.
Fortunately, Alex's heart wouldn't waver. He had seen Sara's wounds, and that pitiful form made his heart ablaze.
But everything changed exactly when Alex believed in his mental fortitude.
Wolfen lifted his chain and pointed it at the dark sky. He then spread his jaw widely, letting out a howl that resounded within Alex's head and soul.
Alex's vision trembled, and he found it hard to stay on his two legs. He felt like all his wounds were opening. As for his soul, it felt like Wolfen Demon chewed on it.
It was a weird and foreign feeling he had never felt before.
Alex bit his lips, trying to shake off that effect, to no avail.
He did his best to not close his eyes and keep Wolfen Demon within his eyes, 'He will try something soon… He will not waste this chance, even in such a mindless state!'
His words became a reality.
After howling, Wolfen Demon immediately lunged at Alex. His loud steps added more to his already powerful mind skill.
In Alex's eyes, Wolfen Demon was still far away from him. In fact, the hungry demon was moving rather slowly…
As Alex thought like that, he inadvertently fell into Wolfen Demon's howl trap.
'No! He is faster!' Alex shouted when the hungry demon was just an inch before him.
[You have lost -870 HP!]
[You have lost your arm.]
[Your Ice Breath has been eaten by Wolfen Demon.]
After noticing it, Alex turned his body to the side. At last, Wolfen Demon's vast form went through him. In that odd exchange, Alex barely reacted. As a price, he lost his arm and weapon.
He dropped onto his butt with trembling eyes and quivering lips.
"Damn it!" Alex grasped his shoulder, which was in his blood.
Because he was a player, Alex felt less pain. It still hurt much, though. He gritted his teeth and promptly jumped onto his feet.
Then, he fished out a spare sword from his inventory.
"A left-handed swordsmanship… It's not my dominant hand, but I have to adapt, right?" Alex uttered to himself.
[Stella Deathwill has stopped your bleeding.]
[Stella Deathwill has healed you.]
"That's enough!" Alex shouted after seeing Stella's mana in his party system.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe suddenly lost so much mana that Alex couldn't allow her to reapply her buffs. He thanked her inwardly for her support, then his eyes landed on Wolfen Demon.
His enemy stood as if dead.
Alex immediately thought that the recent skill had put a high toil on Wolfen Demon's body. He fussed with his spare sword to avoid wasting this golden chance, letting out a cold aura.
Although he surely would be inept with his left hand, Alex still believed in himself. His job was to keep the demon busy and wait for his party to return!
Clumsily, Alex threw a thrust.
"You and your tough body!" Alex complained as his thrust did less damage than usual.
He then drew a few more slashes, which awakened the monster from his stupor.
Wolfen Demon turned around, albeit slowly. He no longer growled like a mindless beast, and one could see that his consciousness had returned to him.
He let out a faint bark, then an energy beam escaped from his mouth.
That demonic power tore through everything in his way.
Alex lifted his sword, then diagonally protected himself. The red mana splashed off his sword in all directions. Some of it went through his defense, gazing at his face. Nonetheless, his swordsmanship protected Alex well enough to not suffer any serious damage.
"Your paw… seems heavy," Alex chuckled brightly.
Although he had lost his arm, Wolfen Demon's paw had suffered equal treatment. After [Chilling Slashes] and Alex's focus on it became dead weight for Wolfen Demon.
On his way, the wolf stumbled, and his body heavily dropped onto the ground.
Alex lifted his chin victoriously, "With this, I will keep you here long enough for girls to return."
Wolfen Demon gritted his teeth in response.
