Chereads / Shadow Emperor in Another World / Chapter 193 - [Chapter 191] *Boss Battle Music Intensifies*

Chapter 193 - [Chapter 191] *Boss Battle Music Intensifies*

A large worm with volcano like cracks cover its entirety, two globular eyes resting within it's head region. Red hot plates cover its wormlike body, hundreds of legs covering the worm's surface. I lunge forward at it as a tidal wave of shadow soldiers and these abominations of creatures flow out, like a colorless sea covered in a black froth.

I swing downward towards the Alpha, only for it to roll swiftly out of the way, causing nothing but air to be hit. I quickly use my momentum and plant the pole end into the ground. My muscles bulge as I push myself off the ground, flying towards the rolling creature.

The wave of bears makes contact with the colorless sea of mobs as hell rains on earth. A green explosion of blood shoots into the sky as the shadow soldiers all strike at once, causing a hot-green rain to cascade upon us.

Roars of victory echo from the screams of the inhuman creatures, as if a symphony of never ending terror.

I slice downward at the Alpha, breathing black flames at its front to distract it. The Alpha screeches in agony as I hit the glowing armor which suddenly glows brighter. Moments later, my reflexes kick in as my legs bulge, sending me flying backwards. The Alpha screeches as the glowing plates lift up from its spine before explosions launch from it in a red fury. The creature runs at me full speed, all its legs moving at in one unified blur.

I wait as the Alpha gets closer, analyzing its hyperactive movements carefully. I stand solid as I let it wrap around me. It begins to squeeze tightly, causing some of my purple scales to crack from the sheer strength. I smile as I hold out my hand, 'Parasitic Tendril!'

A tentacle bursts from my hand as it swiftly wraps around the worm like creature, causing it to shriek in surprise. I tighten my grip as I clench my hand around the tentacle, forcing the tentacle to yank upward.

The Alpha roars in anger as it is torn away from my body, leaving it dangling in the air helplessly. I grip the tentacle in my hand tightly as I swing it towards the ground, the air whistling as its large figure soars through the air. It hits the ground with an earthshaking *Bang!*, forming a large crater from its 7 meter long body. It quickly gets up and rolls into a glowing ball, before spinning towards me full speed. The worm rolls forward at high speeds, using the crater to launch itself into the air, as if a second sun.

'Where the hell did it learn these tricks?!' I ask myself as I quickly retract 'Parasitic Tendril', not wanting it to get caught in this spinning ball of fury. The large ball of fire rolls towards me, boiling heat radiating off of it.

My cracked scales healed within minutes thanks to 'Parasitic Health,' this combined with my S class metabolism and the skill 'Aberration Body' makes me practically immortal to a majority of things.

I continuously leap back as the ball speeds up, using fire from beneath its scolding hot plates as a booster. I frown as I see it moving even faster, blazing towards me like a massive fireball.

'I need to stop this thing before it burns down the forest.' I inwardly note as I see the scorching trail of fire behind it. I stop leaping and plant my feet into the ground, storing my scythe as I quickly activate 'Shadow Weapon.'

The shadows around me bounce with life as they rapidly gather around my hands, forming a set of heavy gauntlets. The speeding piece of fire collided with me full force as I resist the waves of heat. A standoff occurs between an unstoppable force and an immovable object, as if two opposing sides colliding in a frenzy. The flames torch the heavy gauntlets as shadow begins to gather on them, barely able to keep up with the seemingly infinite speed.

After a whole minute, the fire ball finally begins to slow down. My eyes glint with determination as I clench my fists, breaking through the shell and halting it in its tracks. It screams in agony as it rapidly unfurls, writhing above me as it tries to escape. But I don't let it do so for even a second as I bolt straight for the cave wall. The panicked screams grow even louder as fear forms in the Alpha's eyes, seemingly knowing its fate.

I smash straight into the rock wall as a rumbling sounds, the impact causing rocks to fall. I continuously slam the creature into the wall, the screams becoming fainter with each thud against the rock. Orange blood begins to fall from it as I smack it continuously into the rocks, carapace, legs, and plates being sent flying.

"More! More! More!" I yell as I slam the creature into the wall, giving each impact my all as it finally explodes. Hundreds of shattered pieces fly as organs and skin fall to the earth, blood painting the wood landscape orange and green.

I breath a sigh of relieve as I hear another Ping in my ears, a window popping up in front of me.

I smile at the reward as I gradually hear the shrieks of pain slip away. I turn around to see that all my shadow soldiers are standing before me, silently watching. I smile as I punch the air, "Victory!"

They all roar in excitement, having won a battle against a new type of army, winning in this fight is the definition of survival of the fittest, having defeated an entire colony of Pillars. I curiously open up my status window and stare slack jawed at the numbers of my main mission, unable to believe it took such little time to wipe out so many.
