However, I couldn't even do anything to him since his grip is that strong.
At this point, I almost passed out as my life was slowly escaping my body.
However, just right before I did that. The farmer suddenly had his face full of horror. This caught me off guard as this was not a sight that I expected to see.
The farmer then immediately released me from his grasp right away as he fell to his knees.
"What's happening?" I muttered right away as the farmer seemed to be suffering from something.
And then he turns to me, looking at me in fear. "No, I haven't-" He said, then suddenly his entire body shook and his flesh was disintegrating right before my eyes.
W-What? What's going on?
And within a few seconds, his body turned into dust and the only thing that remained was his clothes.
"What the hell is going on here?"
I looked at the scene in front of me as I didn't understand anything that was going on there.
One moment we were fighting and now he just died. His body even disintegrated into dust which is nothing like I have ever seen before. That's when I noticed that there was a sound of laughter coming from somewhere.
It was faint yet distinct. It sounded like an evil laugh that was echoing around here.
That is when the thing that makes that sound appears right in front of me. A demon with full armor and blue skin materializes right before my eyes. It's a monster and what makes it unique is that it looks like a knight.
"To think that I have to find a new host so soon." It said and approached me right away. "But this won't take long as I feel like your body might be a perfect one for me."
"W-What? Host?" I muttered in confusion, not understanding anything. But I understand one thing is that this is dangerous.
"Are you the one who kills the farmer?" I asked right away and it smiled at me right away.
"Killed? More like he outlived his usefulness... but regardless of that, you don't have to know that.
"What's important now is you and I offering you something every human would want." It said with a smile on its face.
"Offering? As if I would accept any offers from a demon."
I prepared my sword as there was no way I was letting this happen to me. Plus I had no idea what was it offering me at all. But based on how the farmer disappears just like that, this demon must be something bad and wicked.
And if it could do that, then there's no guarantee that I would live after this. Thus before anything bad could happen, I attacked the demon right away.
But suddenly I was blasted away by a powerful force from out of nowhere. It felt like I was going to die because of that but luckily I was able to withstand that.
"I have underestimated humans' ability to survive." It said in a serious tone and prepared for its next attack. "But not again..."
And without a warning, it rushed towards me and attacked me with a powerful strike. And this time I couldn't block nor dodge the attack as the impact was so powerful that it broke through my guard in an instant.
Shit! That hurts…
I've never been hit this hard before as this demon has surpassed all of the enemies that I have faced in the past. However, this is nothing and despite taking a direct hit like that, I stood up again right away.
And seeing that I could die if I was careless again, I used the card right away.
Without any hesitation, I activated it right away as there was no time to waste. "Helmet Buff!" I shouted right away and instantly began to dash towards the demon. It doesn't matter if the demon able to block it or not.
Because I learned that as long it hit, the same damage would be applied. That is 100 damage and with all of the monsters that I had killed from the dungeon when I tried to escape.
It should be around 150 now...
There's no doubt that this is the only way to beat this demon and winning this fight is all up to me. Thus with my agility being the highest stats, I begin to use it to the maximum as I begin to attack the demon over and over again.
There's no time to waste and a single second could change the outcome of this fight.
And the demon doesn't seem to care about dodging the incoming headbutt from me. The demon probably thinks that it's not going to be harmed by my attack.
However, as my helmet strikes its flesh. The demon begins to realize that this was a fatal mistake on its part. Because when my headbutt lands, the demon groans in pain.
"Impossible!" The demon then said while holding its stomach, trying to endure the pain. "This can't be-" The demon said as he backed off right away.
I grin right away, knowing that it took damage from that attack. But I realized that was the only time that the demon would be caught off guard, as the next time I was trying to land another hit. I'm sure that the demon would try to dodge it.
"How can a human like you do this to me?" The demon paused and looked at me as if he realized something. "Ah! You must be the hero." It then said with a smile on its face, shocking me right away.
"What did you say?"
"To think that I encounter the hero, as no other human would be able to inflict such damage to me." It sneered at me right away. "But worry not because today I will end all of your problems right away."
And just like that, the demon raised his arm and a blue-clouded smoke appeared forming a long sword right before my eyes.
And immediately the demon rushes towards me right away and swings his sword towards me.
