Today is a training day. Fighting those wolves, I found my weakness. That is. I have no control over my strengths. My lightning-coated body is way too fast for me.
If I continue like this, my body will break for sure. So, today I trained my body, nothing special just exercise, like push up, sprints and sword training without using energy.
My sword technique is normal but I don't think it is time to upgrade that yet. I will reach a higher realm in next future. Only time and experience will form my techniques.
Three days passed.
Now, we planned to hunt. This time we will kill all the monsters we met. Wilfrid said we need to kill small fries first. And we will aim for the giant.
I am confident that I can kill the giant but it will probably take a lot of work. And I will need protection. We have not seen the full power of the giant so it is nice to be cautious.
Irene and my relationship become better. We become closer. I see her as a nice friend. She is a good sparing partner. Her ability is useful and can link with mine.
Irene gasped and drink a bottle of water, " Wilfrid, Are you sure this is the right way?" She is now sitting on the tree. We have been fighting monsters for hours so we decided to rest.
We are in a thick forest a little bit far away from the field where the giant appeared. We planned to avoid meeting the giant and clear the other side. This dungeon is not large so the monsters are getting hard to find because we have killed a lot of them.
Wilfrid nodded, " I told you a lot of time already, Irene. This is the right way. Soon, we will enter that field."
Kyla patted Irene with a big smile. She has been complaining about it from the start. Maybe because we stopped her from fighting. Her ability consumes a lot of energy so Wilfrid prohibited using the ability.
Irene called me, " Hey, are you ready?"
I nodded and laughed, " Of course." She frowned, " Are you not scared? You are the main fighter so all of us depend on you. I bet you are feeling nervous."
I said, " I feel a little nervous."
Selena yelled at our group, she is looking down at the field with her magic beast. Magic users are versatile. They can fight, scout and give AOE attacks.
" I find the giant. He is laying on the field. See like he is taking a nap."
Wilfrid nodded and signalled Reynard to lead. He will be the front-runner. We all run behind Reynard. Our battle formation has been discussed. We have trained with each other.
Our team runs at astonishing speed. Surprisingly, Selena and Kyla can catch up with us. Not my top speed but I will give them full marks for training their body despite their proficiency.
Last we exited the forest, Irena and Kyal stay behind. Reynard immediately activated his skill. With his great energy control, he manipulates the ground and makes the pillars everywhere.
The more, the better because this way we can have an escape plan. Reynard's role is not much in this battle because the giant can control earth better than him and he can't tank the attack of that monster.
Selena created a smoke scream with her magic skill, now that she had done her part, she and Reynard backed away. Since the smoke is thick, the field of vision of both them and the giant was small. Because of that, Wilfrid and I weren't discovered.
With Wilfrid's excellent vision and my aura field, we easily arrived at the giant. The giant was already awake but because of the smoke and pillars, he has not found the two of us.
I activated Strengthen and coated my body with lightning. Even if I can not move like real lightning, my speed is almost near it.
" The smoke sure has helped us out."
Just like this...
I slash my sword at the tendon of the giant. We need to remove the giant mobility. My sword easily cut through the giant leg this time. Even the thick skin can't stop my attack.
Now that I did my job, I needed to help Wilfrid. Looking at him, I was surprised. His spear was burning with energy. The cold green fire raged on his spear. He stabbed the spear into the leg and twisted it.
We hear the giant pained howl. I sense the energy orb coming into my aura field. ' That must be Irene's ability. '
I signal Wilfrid. He nodded and head back to the forest. I focused my energy on my leg and make a light jump. With a few jumps, I was at the top of the pillar.
The giant was kneeling. Even if It has regeneration, with my ability the giant can't move. The sky was getting darker. The black cloud is covered the clear sky. No birds are flying in the sky.
In this field, there is only me and the giant just like last time. But now I am the laughing one.
I smirked. " Hey, fucker. Remember me."
The giant looked up. The pillars, Reynard make were higher than the giant. Seeing me with a bloody sword, the giant roar.
I laughed madly. The giant gathered energy to manipulate the earth around him. But I see his moment a long time ago with the aura field.
I pointed my sword at the sky and flow my energy into the sky. I connected the atmosphere's natural lightning energy with mine.
I can easily connect with it because the cloud is mad from Selena's spell. Soon the white lightning from in the sky, rampaging, and the sound of thunder made the giant scared.
The giant tried to flee but because of the injured leg, it can only crawl. The thunder rained down on the giant. The heat created by the lightning made the giant skin burn.
With its regeneration, the pain only continues. I know that to kill the giant we need more attack power.
I squinted my eyes, pouring my energy into my sword. The lightning on my sword shot through the sky. It connects with the sword. I can sense natural energy weighing down me.
I jumped off the pillar. I swing my sword full force at the giant. The lightning forms solid air slashes. The attack connects with the giant shoulder.
" Yeah!"
This attack took a lot of energy and it was worth it. The giant was in the pool of blood. His hands covered the wound trying to stop the bleeding.
Seeing this scene, immense joy assaulted me. I laughed like a madman. I land on the giant head. Because of my sudden appearance, the giant slipped. His head collided with the ground.
