"Even after taking that much damage she can still endure, imagine fighting that thing in a fair battle of attrition, there's no way I would win!"
The simultaneous barrage of around 10 thunder strikes continued. While the Gaia centipede queen was struggling at the very center of the lake while being pulled by the whirlpool preventing it to escape.
The unnerving sounds of the thunder strikes were disrupting all the monsters and animals around the lake making them flee far away from the battle.
"It's not enough, I need more."
Once more, he activated his Thunder God Zeus and created more thunder strikes to bombard the Gaia centipede queen, now, the queen was being bombarded with 20 thunder strikes simultaneously.
Due to the relentless damages the Gaia centipede queen was taking, it started to slow down while trembling due to it being electrified.
Slowly, the giant centipede was pulled by the whirlpool towards the center, the Gaia centipede queen floated on the surface of the lake while being dragged by the wave.
After a few seconds of it just lying still, its gigantic dark yellow legs started to move again, as it roared while backing up from the water.
Its used to be jet-black skin turned into bright red, while greatly improving all of its physical capabilities.
"I wonder what backstory she had."
With its newly acquired power, the Gaia centipede queen swam in his direction while generating a terrifying sound as an indication of its pure rage.
"Now!"
The number of thunder strikes currently bombarding the lake doubled in quantity while becoming more violent than before, while at the same time the strength of the whirlpool boosted to matched with the tremendous physical capabilities of the Gaia centipede queen.
"Of all of your skills, this is the one that I took most of my time planning. The situation didn't come up as expected, but still."
However, the whirlpool could not hold the Gaia centipede queen that long, After reaching enough distance from him, the Gaia centipede queen launched multiple acidic webs, but all of it was burned down before even reaching him.
The Gaia centipede queen roared as it almost reached the bay while its entire body was trembling due to the simultaneous thunder strikes attacking it.
Using its reliable legs, the Gaia centipede queen jumped out of the water to attack him, but an invisible force stopped it from reaching him.
"Unlike the Force manipulation, the Gravity Manipulation is unbreakable, as long as the target is not heavy enough, the Gravity can push them up, I can't make you fly to the air, unfortunate indeed. But at least I can slow you down."
The Gaia centipede struggled and pushed its pincers towards him while firing some acidic webs, but it was futile. As its final resort, multiple rock spikes emerged around him, he flew away to evade the attack while at the same time a gigantic water ball surrounded the Gaia centipede queen to prevent it from escaping, this time water prison was much larger than before.
"Swimming time is not over."
After evading the hurling rocks, he flew towards the ball of water, half of the water of the lake was used to realize the gigantic water prison.
However, it was never a surprising matter that the Gaia centipede queen could still struggle inside, and with enough time, the Gaia centipede queen could easily break out from it.
"Farewell."
He reinforced the massive water prison with Wind God Aeolus and Gravity Manipulation and propelled the Gaia centipede queen back to the center of the river.
"Now, give her the best that we've got."
The dark cloud from above expanded in size along with the white thunder brewing inside and at once hundred of thunder strikes slammed the lake completely obliterating everything inside the attack range.
This kind of attack was almost impossible to attain, due to the massive amounts of mana it need to accomplish, but if one possessed a large supply of mana by drawing them from his surroundings and as long as there was mana around to utilize, the only restraint was his own imagination.
The roar of agony echoed as the final cry of the Gaia centipede queen. The huge explosion made the water of the lake to spattered in all directions.
Slowly, the whole scenery became completely visible. The bright blue water of the lake returned to its former form, while at the very center was the gigantic corpse of the Gaia centipede queen floating in the water.
"That's the most terrifying skill combos that I've ever executed. It's not shocking, given that I fought against the queen of the cave, she's a literal disaster worthy of her name."

"Done distributing my skill points." He said as he gazed at the sunset. "This place is indeed beautiful. I want to explore it."
"Should I evolve now?"
[Error.]
[A vessel is required.]
"Ha?"
"Do you mean I can't evolve as long as I don't have a vessel?"
[Correct.]
"I only have a few months to live, and I can't evolve! Is this world really hate my species line? As if this world wants us all gone! And most of all I don't even have any idea what kind of vessel it referring to!"
[Vessel.]
[To continue their growth as species, the Fairies are required to fuse their souls to a lifeform as their vessel. Fusing with still living entity is not allowed and Fusing with a lifeform that you eliminated are not possible]
[Once fused, you will acquire the vessel's appearance, but not their skills, stats, and potential growth. All your potential growth will remain based on your species.]
"Finally! You've decided to answer!"
"So it's just that simple? All I need to do is fuse my soul with a dead monster that I didn't kill. It means even if I used a Cave wolf as my vessel, my status will remain the same, only my appearance will change?"
[Correct.]
"So what's the point of doing it if I will never get their skills anyway?"
[Nature spirits species line are unstable existence, as long as they don't have a real physical body to contain them, they are just mana entities with very short life span.]
"I see, so I need a vessel to prolong my life?"
[Correct.]
"I see, I see, I can only do it once so I need to think about it carefully."
"Hmmm."
"Let's see. What options do I have inside the cave?"
"Cave wolf? Not a bad idea, they are cute if I must say."
"Frogs? Not even an option."
"Centipedes? Nope."
"Boas? Imagine seeing a boa flying around? That would be a disaster."
"Bats? As if I need wings to fly."
"What do you think, Gailee? Do you have any suggestions, maybe I'll consider it?"
[Human.]
For a few seconds, he remained silent while processing the absurd suggestion he heard.
"Oy! Oy! Did you just say something very terrifying just now?"
"I can't believe I heard that right straight from your mouth! That's not ladylike, Gailee! Are you serious?"
[Yes.]
"Wow, you're serious."
"Hmmm."
"However, now that I think about it, you're not wrong, but that doesn't mean you are correct!"
The night arrived as the entire place turned dark, with him as the only source of light at the entrance of the cave system of the Fairy dungeon.
"Human, I see."
