"ROUND TWO BITCHES!"
Alex yelled at the top of his lungs as he pound himself at the daze imps, ignoring any form of defense he had maintained until now.
Quickly reaching the imps near him, he lifted his sword and gave a full horizontal slash, beheading one imp and serious injuring another one near it.
Without waiting for them to react, Alex push forward to the nearest group and pierce the closest imp in the stomach, then using all his bodyweight, Alex rotated his body to the right, cutting through the dying imp stomach and slashing the other two near it in one move.
Seeing their kin dying the imps finally woke from the trance and began charging at Alex, hatred could be seen from their now bloodshot eyes, they had lost so many of them to this enemy, he deserved nothing but an agonizing death.
"HAHA HAAAHHA"
But unlike before, Alex wasn't scared or worried, in fact he was laughing, as if he was enjoying his situation now.
Watching the imps charged at him Alex too sprinted to the nearest imp taking it by surprised and stabbed it in the throat before it could react, then moved to the side evading the incoming attack of another one, Alex raised it sword and stabbed it in the back.
The sword pierced the earth after going thru the small creature body, as if it was just a piece of meat, ready to become some barbecue skewer.
Without thinking too much Alex grabbed the sword handle in a back grip hold and did an upward slash, killing an upcoming imp in midair, almost cutting it in halve, before he returned the sword to a normal hold and killed another that was coming behind.
As more and more imps got near to him, the fierce Alex fought disregarding any concern for his body, he knew it he was dead the moment he went on defensive like last time since a battle of attrition was impossible to win.
So disregarding any safety as he fought, he began a madly killing spray, using his body multiple times as bait, many imps tried to bite his legs when he was distracted, only to be either stomp to death or slashed, other attacked his upper body or arms trying to unarm him or deal fatal damage by hitting an artery, but Alex would use his arms shields, having the monster bite the gauntest before smashing them against the ground and finish them of.
Still, such recklessness had its downside, as the fight continue more and more wounds began to appear on his already tattered body, his arms were feeling like to mass of lead, getting heavier after every slash he gave, body was already near its limit.
But Alex dint slow his pace at all, every slash he gave was faster that the last, every move he took was smoother, every stab was preciser that the ones before.
Panting heavily, he kept cutting to the wave of enemies in front of him, reducing its numbers, every passing second an imp fell lifeless on the ground, Its battered body moved as if it was in peak conditions, his innumerable cuts and bites should be giving him a maddening level of pain, but he couldn't feel a thing, as if the parietal lobe in his brain had decided to shut down itself.
It was an unbelievable sight, a single human covered in blood and wounds, fighting a hoard of monster from all directions under the moonlight, with a smile on his face he cut and cut and cut the small imps until their numbers were no longer something frightening.
Over a hundred imps laid now on the ground, dead, the numbers of the few still alive were less that 20, keeping their distance away from Alex as their earlier confidence and hatred now was replace with fear.
SLASH
"ROOOOAAARRRR"
Just as Alex cut another imps head he heard the roar of the giant monster, who had finally finished looking at the spectacle and decide to join the fight, it had waited for him to kill the imps and tired himself out to weaken him and aft er seeing him slowing down he decided it was time to finish the job.
Alex looked at the monster approaching him, his purple eyes observed every movement it did without any sign of fear or worry, it was as if something finally broken free from deep in his soul, a smile slowly appeared in his face as he turned to face the monster for a final time.
It was a mysterious feeling, like the happiness when you were on the last match of a game, just one point from winning, adrenaline filled you entire body and you heart pumped blood as fast as it could, it was an intoxicating feeling.
The feeling of battle.
"ROOAARRRRRR"
"HHHAAAAHHH"
Charging at the monster with a battlecry that would made William Wallace proud, Alex lowered his sword to waist height with the tip forward, s if ready for strike the monster in one strike.
Seen Alex action the giant monster raised his club, attempting to squash Alex, he was bigger and its arms longer so he had the better reach.
Splash
BOOOM
Watching the monster raise his club, Alex lips began to curl upward and seconds before he could be killed, he threw the head he was holding with his other arm and hiding behind his back of the imp he had just killed at the giant monster, hitting him in the face.
Blood purring from the decapitated head hit it in the face and his eyes, blinding him for a second causing it to swing his club aimless, missing Alex who lowered his body to evade the blow by a few inches, a fatal mistake in a fight.
Without missing the opportunity Alex got behind the giant monster and slash it in the calve, severing the supporting muscles and tendons of its feet.
"Gaurgh"
Feeling an intense pain on its legs the monster tried to turn back and hit Alex, but its legs failed to support him making it fall on its back.
Giving it no time to react Alex jumped out of the way where the monster was falling and moved towards his most prominent arm that was holding the club, and with a single strike he stabbed on the wrist and twisted the sword with all his strength, destroying all tendons and ligaments on the giant arms, crippling his hand for good.
"GRAAAAHHGGG"
The monster wailed in pain and he felt a sharp pain from its hand, he tried to stand up and squash the bastard but his legs wont respond, and now its arm was useless, then he felt something heavy on his chest.
Lowering his head he saw what he just though of a simple pray stepping on his chest, looking down on him while covered in his own blood as well as his kin blood, a bend sword on one of his hands, its tip inches from his throat.
Looking at he prey in front of him, a wide smile as if i was mocking him on his face, his purple eyes looking at him without blinking made him feel fear from the bottom of his heart.
This was no pray,... this is a monster>
But it realized to late
"It looks like its my win"
Those were the last words it heard as the sword price deeply into his throat, darkness consuming his conscience for a long time.
❄️❄️❄️
"HAHAHA HAHA HA that was a good fight! It's been so long since I actually saw such a interesting fight"
A hearty laughter resounded all around a white room, it was devoid of life or any other object, white as far as the eye could see.
There was truly nothing in this room, except for a single white round table and a chair where a person was currently sitting down, laughing as if it had just heard the funniest joke of the century.
"But still Sera, did you summon a mortal because you were just bored? Al is going to be angry"
Floating around the laughing person, a small orb around the size of one's palm moved, a person voice was transmitted from it.
"Nonsense, do you really take me as such an irresponsible person, I just felt something breaking the space near my domain, so I went to see what happened, but to witness such fight HAHAHAHA I'm really happy"
"I didn't think he had a chance, he was outnumbered and a foe stronger that him yet still won"
"And that is what makes a fight interesting, the feeling of your body pushing to the max, adrenaline rushing to every pore of your body, the feeling of death if you even relax for a second against a powerful enemy, it's fantastic"
The person sitting on the chair screamed at the top of its lights, shaking the room a bit by the power of her voice alone, a smile was visible on her face as if it had cramped from laughing too much.
"I admit in the last moments he looked a bit similar to you, but he is really wounded right now"
"Yea he is strong but he is also in pretty bad shape"
"Mhm, so I guess he will died"
"….."
"….."
"….. …. grin"
"OH no you did no-"
"Relax ok, I didn't do anything that I'm not allow to do, plus is a shame if he just died like that"
"What did you do?"
"I just relieved some of his most serious wounds, he will still feel like shit but will not died unless he do something stupid"
"Just that"
"Yup just that"
"….."
"….."
"….."
"….. … grin"
"I KNEW IT!!"
"Ok ok I also unlocked his race traits"
"???, aren't all of them born with it?"
"Not this one, that is why I found his fight interesting, and the reason I'm helping him out this one, he deserves at least this bit"
"I guess is fine if is only this much, don't go too far ok"
"Yes I know, I will just observe for now, it feels like it will be interesting from now on"
Looking at the small sphere disappear, the person began to stare at the endless white, a pleasant formed on her face as it recalled the last fight she watched before staring to laugh again.
"Things are starting to be fun!"
