The Creed of an Avenger

V1.C24 Snap, Revenge of women



Leo\'s body moved on reflex when he saw the sudden attack. He grabbed Yue and barely dodged the scorching aurora beam. He glanced at the Silver headed Hydra emitting an oppressive aura.

\'Analyze\'

After looking at the stats that were more than thrice of his own, he retreated behind a crystal piller with Yue.

He patted her cheeks with a smile. "Yue, you recover here. I\'ll go and keep it busy."

She gulped down a vial of Ambrosia to recover some mana while regretting over the mana she wasted on torturing.

"...No. I won\'t leave you alone."

"Then get on my back."

She said and twined her hands around his neck and moved to his back.

He felt a moist and soft feeling in his neck before his neck went numb.





He nodded his head and took out a bone spear from inventory. It was nearly two meters in length with sharp blade like protrusions on both sides.

With the spear in his hands, he sprinted toward Hydra. He activated supersonic step to narrow the gap.

Hydra launched numerous balls of light at Leo who waved the spear to block and kept moving around the hydra in circles with Hide Presence skill activated.

His blurring figure confused hydra\'s mind for a moment.

Hydra exploited the brief opening and jumped on hydra back. He raised the spear in the air and stabbed the thick silver scales with all his strength. But he only managed to create a small wound.

\'It\'s not enough.\'

"Berserk."

He hit the same place again. Blood sprayed like a fountain from the deep hole created by the spear.

Hydra screeched in pain and shook its body trying to shake him off.

He firmly gripped the spear and pushed it deeper with twists. His mind struggled hard to pacify the berserk thoughts, it was less than the time he used berserk for the first time.

Hydra couldn\'t use aurora attacks on its own back. Blinded with rage, it opened its maw trying to eat the creature wreaking havoc on its back.

Leo withdrew the bone spear and begrudgingly jumped from its back and retreated toward Yue.

"Yue!"

Yue slowly walked out of the hiding place. "...Yeah!"

He glanced at Hydra shooting Aurora breath for Yue. "Dodge!"

Yue hurriedly rolled to the side but a part of the attack grazed her back and took her hand away with it. Looking at her bloodied figure all the rage inside him exploded and snapped something inside him.

Ba-Thump!

He fell on his knees with a hand on his chest, his face twisted in excruciating pain wrecking. Darkness covered his vision and he lost his consciousness.

Thump!

A loud heartbeat reverberated through the floor. Hydra face twisted in terror. Yue unconsciously raised her head to see a figure clad in strange black armor.

Thump!

The oppressive aura around the figure caused Yue heart to sped up. She then stared in surprise when hydra tried to run desperately.

Thump!

Yue saw the black figure vanish and appear in the face of Hydra. With a wide open mouth Hydra shot a large aurora breath at him.

Thump!

Yue used her remaining mana to cast Hallowed Grounds, but after her body regenerated her remaining mana was very low so the barrier only lasted for several seconds.

"Run from there!"

Thump

The beam broke the barrier and hit the figure only to get dispersed moments later. The figure raised its hand and punched the head of hydra.

Bang!!!

A deafening sound was heard and the head of Hydra exploded in a blood mist. Cracks formed on the crystal pillar behind Hydra just from aftershock of the attack.

The armored figure lost consciousness and dropped to the ground.

Yue used her last strength to run and caught him. Her small body shielded him from impact. His weight nearly crushed her bones. She laid him on the ground and examined his body. The strange armor wasn\'t there anymore. His wounds looked mostly healed. She drank some Ambrosia and poured some into his mouth.

Creak~

Her face turned pale as she saw the door opening itself.

"What do I do if there are monsters?"

She was determined to fight to death with her pitiful remaining mana, but nothing came out. She waited for a while then slowly dragged him inside the door.

***

Orcus Labyrinth, 65th Floor…

Behemoth roared and charged at the students.

"Soar unto heaven, O divine wings! Celestial Flash!"

Kouki sword shot a light shockwave and hit the chest of the behemoth causing blood to spray from injury.

"Let me deal with it, you take care of skeletons," Irene said coldly and stepped forward.

"Ice harder than steel, pierce mine enemies! Pierce their hearts! Ice spears!"

More than a hundred Ice spears formed in the air. With a wave of her hand, they shot forward and penetrated every part of its body.

Behemoth released a roar filled with pain. The ice spears punctured the armor and pierced its flesh.

This was the result of her training, she along with Eri trained harder than anyone. Her talent in ice magic was already very high to begin with some help from students and Royal mages, she could single-handedly wipe out a dozen of mutated orcs.

The scene induced a surprised look from everyone.

Behemoth charged furiously with flames whirling around its horns. The heroes retreated to confront the traum soldiers.

Eri had no fear in her eyes as she raised her staff.

"Wicked Wrap!"

The behemoth stopped suddenly and stood there in a daze.

Seeing her spell working, she looked at Irene. "Use that spell."

Irene nodded and pointed her staff at the behemoth.

"O Spirit of Ice, Heed my call! Crush mine enemies underneath your force! Judgement Hammer!"

A giant hammer nearly 3 meters materialized in the air, it appeared to be made of pure ice.

Irene waved her hand and the hammer fell down on the behemoth. Cracks appeared on its hard armor like bones.

Eri caught the exhausted Irene and watched the behemoth\'s misery. It roared and stood back up, ready to charge at them.

Eri pointed her magic staff forward. "O God of Death, Heed my call! Devour mine enemy, drag them to hell! Summon your mighty warriors aid of mine! Hell\'s Gate!

A magic circle appeared on the ground and hands rose from the magic circle. Numerous skeletons appeared and attacked behemoth with their swords.

The behemoth fired flames and killed a good amount of them. Eventually, skeletons overwhelmed the behemoth. They leaped on its giant body and stabbed their bone sword everywhere on its body.

Behemoth growled and shook its body furiously trying to shake away the bony creatures. But the magic circle ate away Eri\'s mana and kept summoning skeletons.

Blood flowed from its giant body. Finally, the behemoth exhausted itself and collapsed on the ground. The skeletons attacked until it roared painfully one last time…

Kouki and others had also dealt with the traum soldiers at that time and gaped in shock. Then a chill ran down their spine seeing the merciless death of Unkillable Behemoth.

Two girls killed the behemoth. The behemoth was killed yet again.

\'Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned,\' thought every man.

\'What is this? They are even more powerful than the hero. I should keep an eye on them,\' Meld thought.

Eri and Irene sat together and stared at the behemoth dying a painful death. Their faces were pale from mana exhaustion yet the sweet smile on their faces didn\'t falter.

Irene released a sigh in satisfaction. "We really did it."

"Yeah," Eri replied.

Irene looked at her and smiled. "Who could have thought that two oddballs like us will slay the behemoth that even the strongest Hero couldn\'t kill."

"He took it down alone though," she said, her voice brimming with pride.

Irene smirked. "That will be our next goal then, taking down a behemoth alone that is.".

Eri also grinned. "Sure."

Suzu jumped at Eri. "My Eriri~ is the best, hehe~"

She tried to grope her body but Shizuku picked her up from the scruff of her neck.

"Let them rest."
