Bro, I'm not an Undead!

There were several reasons for why Unbreakable was asking Skullius for help.

This might have seemed contradictory when considering he could see the Penetrator’s appearance from where he had torn off the side of the creature’s helmet but the man had considered a lot of things since that moment.

One was that Skullius didn’t emit any evil presence. Heck, the bastard didn’t even have a presence to begin with. It was as if he wasn’t there when he used the senses outside his sight.

Of course this could be debunked easily but it wasn’t the only thing. The skeleton had Levin running along his bony body, which he saw as lightning, something he couldn’t exactly tie to undead as he knew them.

The last thing was that this skeleton had actually helped in saving the city with that lightning move that obliterated two chunks of the massive island.

This thing had also gone on to assist the mercenaries in cutting down some of the Bulk Terrors with a peculiar skill before the evil presence had suddenly gushed from him and killed hundreds.

All this culminated into the man’s latest thoughts.

He didn’t think that this thing was an ally as such, but it definitely had a reason for mitigating damage to the city and he appealed to that reason.

Whatever happened later could happen, but first, the Galemonger had to be dealt with.

Skullius cocked his head in confusion. With how everything was going, he didn’t expect to be blasted with such an unexpected call.

‘Me? Help? Isn’t this guy mad at me for killing all those mercenaries?’ the Penetrator questioned himself. ‘Does this bastard even need my help? I barely have mana to do anything anyway!’

Skullius wanted to pose this question to Unbreakable but he didn’t know how as he couldn’t transport his voice through the air.

As he was about to issue a reply regardless of whether or not the dark haired man could hear or not, a shot of blistering heat dropped from the sky in the form of a massive flaming arrow that flared with a bright white light onto the Galemonger!

BWOOOOM!

The purple creature was enveloped in the fire, its hands letting go of Unbreakable who promptly retreated back.

At the same time, the massive pull on all air and mana was cut off, relieving both the atmosphere and Skullius who felt within his core to discover that he barely had any mana remaining but still showed calmness in his four socket flames.

Behind the roaring flames that towered over three meters, twisting like a tornado as they engulfed MaelStorm, a robed figure appeared with his aged face showing a stern face saturated with focus and killing intent!

The Hawk of Conflagration above him steadily flapped its wings as it called out loudly.

The old man pulled back his right sleeve and sank his hand into the roaring flames as the air then shuddered, a horrendous force of mana pouring from Terian as it gathered on his hand that touched the back of the Galemonger within the fire!

VWUUUUUOOOSH!

A jet-like stream of white fire blasted from Terian’s hand in a concentrated manner, firing in a straight line!

The stream of flame melted everything in its path while leaving a trail of nothing but smoke and molten rock, an intense vibration shaking the area many times over!

Skullius looked at this with flaring socket flames full of both excitement and anxiety!

The ray of flame made everything appear dark while highlighting only what it scorched!

When it ended, Terian retreated to where Unbreakable was standing while waving his hand which emitted smoke and steam with a slight glow of red.

The cooked dust and thick smoke was a testament to the amount of power released but none of the two men were shocked when a wave of concentrated air blew outwards to reveal the unscathed Galemonger.

Terian sighed.

“I knew this wouldn’t kill it but… to think that there’s not even a scratch…” he said in exaggerated exasperation.

“This creature is sturdy. It absorbed the staff it was using to get a boost to its physicality,” Unbreakable explained, his eyes not leaving the creature.

“I see. And here I thought I’d seen the worst of it. It evolved when I was fighting against it. It has a troublesome natural ability. For it to have such power, it probably wandered out of a powerful Cluster. That brat was probably right.”

Unbreakable clicked his tongue.

Terian then turned to the oddly armoured man behind, seeing the appearance behind the helm. His eyes almost popped out of his sockets and he was about to ask when…

“Don’t worry about that for now,” Unbreakable instructed to which Terian reluctantly let go of the matter. Unbreakable could probably handle it if he said so.

As he took a few moments to recover his mind to the current issue, he then posed a question.

“You truly can’t beat this thing with your full strength?” he asked, referring to the Galemonger.

Somehow, this question bit Unbreakable where it hurt, momentarily shattering his ever focused visage and he did his best to provide an objective answer.

“If I use my Full Body Aura I could best it but just one of my attacks in that state could eradicate the city. We can get this thing far away or high up but with its new powers, I wasn’t sure I could do that on my own as my speed…well… isn’t anything special, even when factoring in my Full Body Aura.”

0ᴠᴇʟ.ᴄ0ᴍ “It carries itself like a Mage even though it doesn’t have many tricks up its sleeve beyond wind projectiles. I assume the Teleportation is an aspect of its staff which it may or may not be able to use in this new state. That would make this fight harder than it needs to be.”

Terian nodded.

“Then that’s tricky. My own spatial manipulation can’t get us beyond 70 meters so the option of pulling it out of the city is off the board. It’s a. Then I suppose…” the old man said as he cocked his right sleeve again, making sure it wouldn’t untuck itself again.

The air cracked like a whip as an ferocious orange flame flared over it with a rising intensity.

“We’ll have to steadily damage it over time…” Unbreakable finished Terian’s sentence as his body bubbled with a powerful force of mana.

At the same time that they took this stance, the Galemonger locked both of its arms as mana poured from its body.

Vicious winds blew around it in this open space and the creature with ferocity as they formed three partially visible rings around it that spun protectively.

‘Hmmm… is it learning new tricks from its new evolution?’ Terian thought.

Unbreakable narrowed his eyes in suspicion as well, but this wasn’t going to stop him and the old man from attacking as in the next moment, the two shot forward, reaching the Galemonger before Skullius could fruitlessly try to blink!

Terian went high as his flaming fist flew in a hook towards the side of the creature’s face while burning the air!

Unbreakable’s cheeks became inflated as he drew in air and went for a low sweep to knock the creature down, his leg resisting the immense opposing force in the air which intended to reduce his momentum!

Shockingly, the Galemonger was not overwhelmed in the least by the sudden attack, and with the same amount of agility as its foes, or perhaps higher, it drew in the rings of air towards itself and then expelled them outwards before Terian’s fist could touch its head!

The old man felt all the momentum he had built up get resisted by the winds which generated a massive flow that pushed against his figure!

Yet this wasn’t all as the old man found tens of marble-like objects streaking through this wind as they barrelled against him, all igniting the moment they reached within close proximity of Terian!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Explosions ensued, the flames being fuelled by the steady flow of air as they blazed around Terian!

The Galemonger then quickly exerted strength into its foot before Unbreakable could knock it down and smashed its fist towards the man’s face as he approached from below!

…!

Unbreakable felt as if he had struck an immovable surface but he didn’t dwell on it, as he brought his hands together to guard against the incoming punch!

As the fist descended however, Terian’s figure appeared on the Galemonger’s other side with his flaming fist smashing squarely into the creature’s face!

BOOM!

A crisp impact along with the explosion of flames roared on the Galemonger’s face as its fist’s strength died down!

At the same time, Unbreakable gripped the tentacles belonging to the creature and pulled hard as he cocked his fist, intent on flinging a deadly punch to keep the flow of attacks going!

Skullius watched this was in awe!

This monster was being beaten regardless of what tactics it used.

Would this battle be over soon then?

Would get a chance to nab that staff?

Did he need to act now and use his all or nothing move to risk it all?

Damn it! Terian’s entrance had flashed up his plans!

As Skullius began to anticipate what would happen next and how it would affect his next moves, something interrupted his thoughts!

A massive purple glow suddenly appeared behind the Galemonger in the form a large eye that trembled as it looked at the octo-humanoid’s enemies!
