(The Basilisk is a giant serpent, also known as the King of Serpents. Who can destroy other creatures with only its deadly stare)

Until now, everyone was doing me favors and now It was my turn to return that, even if it costs my life for the loved ones who I have cherished, I walked inside that dark area to face the fate that can change the future...​​

Hiss...

"You are so interesting you know, I\'ve been inside you since the day you got summoned, I\'ve been making your life hard still you look so unbothered,"hiss" Basilisk crawled and stood tall in front of me.

His body was as large as a dragon, his head was big enough to eat three to four mammoths at once, he had large and sharp fangs coming out of his mouth, I assumed his eyes would\'ve been big and of yellow color, because as he mentioned his name, a memory in my brain unlocked about him...

I closed my eyes and asked him, "So, are you ready or not? Cause if you\'re not ready, it\'d be no fun in beating you then" I thought I was here without a second option, so it would be best to not regret it later if I\'ll be still alive.

"You\'re literally something, Kai Ried. I praise you! But before you start, do you have any last words?" Basilisk asked me while crawling around the area.

"No, I have no regrets. I\'m here to show all those fuckers that I am, I\'m Kai Reid!!"

"So, come try and kill me!"

I was here with a nice strategy, with almost perfect assumptions of my opponent\'s attacks as well.

As the match began, without a second thought, I started to run in the opposite direction to him with a smirk on my face. That was enough for disturbing a lot of stable minds.

I did not know what the reaction of the audience was. But they must be standing with a confused look with scratching their back head or chin...

"What do you think you\'re doing, Reid? You can\'t escape from me and you know that!"

My first step to replace the calm mind of Basilisk with a confused one was almost complete.

I kept running straight, making a fine distance with him.

"Hmm, at this distance I won\'t make direct eye contact with him."

I was worried to be not able to keep up with my plan, but everything until now was in control.

Although, I had never lost the game of eyelash blinking and I was even confident about my "torpedo glares" nevertheless, my opponent here was a magical creature, not a kid, who can be fooled easily.

So, my second step was to avoid his eyes...

"Aye! Cunt! You call yourself serpent king! You\'re more like a Slowpoke king! Hahaha, I was making distance for this" pissing off this egoistic creature was just a cup of tea for me. All it needed was just a few humiliating words.

"Huh! Wha—"

Now it was my turn.

Before he could understand anything, I aligned my hands in a way that looked like I was going to shoot something through my hands.

"BOOOOOOOOMMMMMMM"

The temperature of the area rose suddenly and lightened the room with a sudden sparkle of light energy. My energy started draining, my hands were trembling because of the reaction force. But it was my last chance… I couldn\'t afford to lose.

A large red energy beam crashed into Basilisk\'s skull that emerged from my hands. The ray was so powerful that it stunned him and made him fall to the ground.

The dungeon was filled with smoke that was emerged because of the Big Blast. The nobles, the knights, the people who were watching the match had no idea how I made the explosion without my serpent powers.

"You\'re slow and now you\'re on the ground! Are you sure that calling yourself the serpent king is okay?" I provoked the serpent king while hiding under the smoke.

I was sure that being unable to even scare me after that much humiliation ripped his pride in two.

"Huh...What? You can\'t see me? How pitiful..."

"I said with a pout but suddenly I showed the best talent of mine,"Cloning"

Hahaha, I\'ll show you what it feels like to be powerless!" I smirked before attacking him.

Kai was still invisible to Basilisk. He was talking from inside of the demonic smoke. Everything was covered by smoke and his steps were the only thing that could be heard.

Soon the sound of footsteps stopped too, and he came out piercing the smoke. He kicked in Basilisk\'s eye, but his kick was not strong enough to crush his eyes. And this was his biggest mistake. Without wasting a second, Basilisk bit Kai\'s abdomen and ripped his organs out of his body.

His body was ripped in half with blood everywhere, he died.

The dream he never wanted to live in came to life.
