[ "Demonic Emperor Sword: Demonic Force Manipulation" ]

-SLASH! -SLASH! -SLASH!

[ "Demonic Emperor Sword: Extermination Blast" ]

[ "Demonic Emperor Sword: Cataclysmic Destruction" ] …

Zero was also trying to use Dark Energy. Dark Energy and the skill that he could use from his memory is one of the strongest techniques with a lot of destructive forces. Previously, his body could not handle such power.

Due to this reason, he wanted to consume Dragon Heart which would make it easier for him to handle such power.

As expected from the Dragon Heart, Zero felt no discomfort and could use Dark Energy as if he was a devil. With his increased mana, he could also use it for a much longer period of time and there was no pain either.

He thought that he could also use stronger techniques that he knew from memories, though he could not as he did not have the necessary amount of Dark Energy.

Well, at least he was happy that he could use Cataclysmic Destruction without trouble. He remembers killing Rank-S Ice Griffin with this technique. With this technique, Zero hoped that he could at least finish the boss on Floor 30.

"Looks like it's time to move to Floor-26."

Zero took out the teleportation scroll and used it to teleport Lilith and himself to the next floor.

*****

Floor-26!

[ "Glacier Shadow Slash" ]

Zero was conquering floor 26 with only his Dual Art. Previously it would have been difficult and he would have rather used power from Dark Energy. However, he had ranked up and he could feel that Floor-26 could be conquered using only his Dual Art. Though he planned to use Dark energy. In case he feels that he needs to speed up.

[ "Frozen Shadow Dance" ]

Frozen Shadow Dance is a technique that is the combination of the Shadow Dance technique with Cryomancy Art. Similar to the Shadow Dance technique, Zero becomes a shadow making him faster but with the combination of Cryomancy Art, he can cling to his enemies' bodies and freeze them to death. It was a perfect Art for assassination. The only problem was mana consumption.

Using Shadow Dance already took too much mana but by using Cryomancy Art on top of that, his mana consumption tripled Thankfully, his mana stat had risen by two ranks which at least allowed Zero to use this technique for 5 five minutes.

[ "Frostbound Chains" ]

Another Dual Art technique was Frostbound Chains which is the combination of Nightfall Shackles with Cryomancy Art.

Not only can he bind the enemies like Nightfall Shackles but also freeze them to death. This technique was not only a restraining skill but also an attack technique. Even Rank-A monsters can't escape after getting trapped in this technique.

As Zero progressed through Floor-26, he encountered various monsters and challenges, but he was able to overcome them with his skills and experience.

He noticed that the monsters on this floor were easier to defeat than the ones on the previous floor, but he didn't let his guard down as he knew that anything could happen in the Tower Of Obelisk. He might have gotten stronger but monsters were also becoming stronger as he climbed up. The only reason it was easier was because of Dragon Heart which increased his power exponentially.

After a few weeks of exploring, Zero came across a large room with a crystal pedestal in the center. On top of the pedestal was a small crystal orb emitting a faint glow. He didn't know what type of monster there was but he was sure that a boss monster was waiting for him.

( There must be boss monsters. It might be a golem type. )

Zero thought.

"Lilith, stay here and protect yourself. If you can't, run and come to me."

Zero said to Lilith.

"…."

There was no response from Lilith as usual but Zero knew that she understood his command. He patted her head before going to confront the boss monster.

As Zero approached the crystal pedestal, a loud rumbling noise echoed throughout the room, and the ground began to shake. Suddenly, a large golem made of crystal rose from the ground and stood in front of him.

The golem was at least four times the size of Zero and had sharp crystal spikes protruding from its body. It looked extremely menacing and Zero could feel the pressure emanating from it. He could sense that this boss monster was much stronger than any he had faced before.

Zero took a deep breath and readied his sword. He knew that this fight would be a tough one, but he was determined to overcome it.

[ "Glacier Shadow Slash!" ]

Zero swung his sword and unleashed a powerful slash toward the golem. The blast hit the golem's body, causing it to shake but it didn't seem to do much damage.

The boss golem was made of a rare metal called "Oblivionite". It is a mysterious ore that is extremely rare and a good choice for making armor. It has the unique property of being able to absorb and disperse energy, making it extremely durable and able to withstand even Rank-A attacks.

Its dark, almost black color, gives off an ominous aura, and many explorers believe that it possesses powerful magic properties. The metal is so rare that it is said that only a handful of golems have ever been created using this material, and each one is a formidable opponent to any explorer who dares to face it.

Zero realized that brute force wouldn't be enough to take down this golem. He needed to be strategic and use his skills effectively. He might be able to damage the boss golem or one might call it the Oblivionite Golem as it was made of Oblivionite.

The golem charged toward Zero with incredible speed, and he quickly used his Shadow Dance to dodge its attacks. He then used his Frostbound Chains technique to bind the Oblivionite Golem, immobilizing it.

However, with its defense, it quickly absorbed mana and made Frostbound Chains weaker and the Oblivionite Golem broke it. He was also preparing for another strike at Zero.

[ "Frostwing" ]

Zero avoids the Oblivionite Golem attack by flying in the sky. One of the main weaknesses of the golems was that they were slow and also that they couldn't do much against a flying enemy.

Their defense and power were the greatest advantages. Even against Rank-S, their physical power and defense would not lose to them. However, they can't fly or use any long-range skills which are their biggest disadvantage.

However, it seems that Zero underestimated the person who made the Golem. The Golem looked at Zero, analyzing the strategy that he could use.

As Zero had thought, Golems can't use any long-range skills. But there were many methods to defeat people who could fly, especially if the said person is as strong as the Oblivionite Golem.

-CREAK!

The Oblivionite Golem lifted a large boulder with his arms.

-SWISH!

And bang! The Golem threw the boulder at Zero who was flying in the sky.

!!!

Zero was surprised by the Golem's action. He had defeated many Golems in the past and even though they had great defense and power, they were stupid. As long as one was patient and used one's advantage, it was easy to defeat a Golem.

However, Zero didn't expect that the Oblivionite Golem would be so smart as to make use of the boulder to attack him.

[ "Glacier Shadow Slash" ]

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

Zero easily broke the boulder that Golem threw. It would have been a different story if the boulder was made out of Oblivionite. Nevertheless, it would be his luck if such a big boulder were made of Oblivionite. He could easily earn a hundred million Ethan by selling such an amount of Oblivionite.

Anyway, the Oblivionite Golem didn't stop at that. He began to search and throw boulders again and again.

[ "Blizzard Storm" ]

Zero used a Blizzard Storm to cover the area with blizzards. Every area had become obscure. However, Zero could still know what is happening in the area through his mana that is connected with Blizzard.

Zero wanted to see whether the Golem would still try to throw a boulder at him. As expected, the Golem's vision was obscure and he didn't know his location. The Golem seemed to be heading back to his initial location as he could not see Zero.

[ "Shadow Cryomancy Bomb" ]

Zero seized the opportunity and used his Shadow Cryomancy Bomb technique, unleashing a barrage of bombs at the golem's body. The Golem didn't seem to have any effect but slowly it began to get damaged.

The Oblivionite Golem was very strong. He also had a strategy for handling flying enemies. However, he met Zero. The boulder he threw could hardly do damage to him. While Zero can keep on attacking without worrying about getting hit back.

After a while, the Oblivionite Golem turned into a pile of rubble, defeated by Zero's strategic attacks and skills.

There is a great chance that many of the Rank-A explorers would not know how to fly and would have found themselves defeated by the boulders even if they did. Only Rank-S and above could easily defeat the Oblivionite Golem.

Zero descended to the ground and waited for the pile of rubble to turn into a treasure chest. Slowly, a treasure chest appeared. Zero expected much from the treasure chest.

"THIS IS!"

Zero shouted excitedly. He didn't expect much but he got something that he desperately wanted. He quickly put all the treasure in and rushed back to Lilith.

"Lilith!"

Zero called out to Lilith who had been waiting outside the room.

"Lilith, I finally got the artifact that could help you."

He quickly took out the artifact from his Spatial Ring.

Name: Spirit Amulet

Rank: A+

The Spirit Amulet is a mystical artifact made of a soul stone that can heal the mind and spirit. It calms the mind, relieves stress, promotes emotional balance, and removes negative energy. User mana control would also be increased by wearing the artifact.
