Cosmic Peak

"Boy, we can't just follow up with whatever you say," Klen said with a frown.

*kreeeeeeeeeee...*

"Focus on defending, Klen!" Cerity said as he waved her hand and again attacked the Blood Hexa Entity as a thick lightning bolt struck it.

However, the current Blood Hexa Entity was recovering its injuries quickly, and it seems that the more injured it was, the higher its recovery speed became.

"How troublesome...It seems that we need to wait for Ketu to finish this monster in one go with a powerful combo attack," Cerity said with a frown.

She then turned to Aren and asked, "on what basis did you suggest about using purifying type powers on that monster?"

Aren looked at her as he pointed his own eyes with his hands with two-finger and said, "my path gives me the power to see through weakness of enemy and according to that, this monster is weak against purification type powers."

Cerity looked at Aren deeply before she nodded, "I've judged that you are not lying. Alright, let's try it."

After saying that, she pointed her scepter towards the dark clouds in the sky before a white and azure aura covered her entire body.

"Cerity, are you really going to use your Lightning of Purification on it? It's supposed to be the most powerful purification power on record!" Klen shouted with a deep frown while defending against the torrent of lasers and other attacks from Blood Hexa Entity.

"Argh, this monster seems to be getting stronger. What the hell is going on? Its attacks...they converting my energy into its strange power," Klen said as he had no choice but to start using his full power to defend against the strange energy attacks of this monster.

Hearing that, Aren remembered something and hurriedly said, "from what I can see with my path's vision, this monster utilizes corrupt power. I think it must be able to corrupt your barriers and other powers as well for its own benefits."

'Holy shit,' Aren cursed internally, 'and this Blood Hexa Entity was not even born with its full power.'

At this time, the dark clouds in the sky turned into white clouds as they cracked with white and azure flashes of lightning.

Cerity pointed her scepter at the Blood Hexa Entity as two thick bolts of azure-white lightning struck it.

*screeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.....*

*screeeeeeeee...**screeeeeeeee...*

"W-what!" Klen shouted in disbelief.

Cerity and Aren were also dumbfounded as those two bolts of azure-white lightning shredded the troublesome monster.

Its size became just one meter big, and from the painful cries it released, they could infer that it was severely injured and on the verge of dying.

Suddenly, the Blood Hexa Entity released a loud strange cry as if using all of its strength and...exploded.

*Boooooooooooooom...*

This happened unexpectedly as the strange corrupting wave of intense energy released, destroying all barriers of Klen and even the healing tree he conjured.

Aren had turned to side before the intense corrupting energy wave struck him, so one side of his body was more injured than the other side.

"Arghhhh....." Aren screamed as the corrupting energy wave struck half of his body, 'FUCKKK! I'm not dying!'

After one scream, he had already lost his consciousness and was on the verge of dying before Cerity hurridly struck Aren with a bolt of purification lightning.

Cerity was also struck by the attack, but nothing happened to her as she was covered in the white and azure aura.

She then also covered Aren in a barrier of purification lightning before calling Klen, "Klen, hurry up and heal this guy."

"Strike me with that purification lightning first! This damn corrupting energy is annoying," Klen shouted while moving towards Cerity and Aren.

*Crackle*

Klen arrived and started healing Aren while checking his condition, "his heart had already stopped beating. Cerity, strike him with another bolt of purification lightning. There seems to be some of that corrupting energy still inside him."

*Crackle*

Another tiny lightning bolt of purification lightning struck Aren before the little bit of corrupting energy in him was destroyed.

After five minutes, Ketu returned to them after killing the corrupted orc lord and was surprised, "you guys already finished? That was unexpectedly fast. And who is this little guy?"

"Well, we finished off that monster faster thanks to his suggestion," Klen spoke as he continued to heal Aren.

After three minutes, Aren regained consciousness and saw many notifications in his head.

'Nice...however, before checking out the rewards, I have to finish one more task,' Aren thought as he opened his eyes.

He found himself covered in a barrier and was floating in the sky; his sword was also in the barrier.

Aren saw that Ketu, Cerity, and Klen were talking to duke Heigan, who seemed to have recovered.

Duke Heigan was facing Aren, so he was surprised and laughed, "so you woke up, Aren? good good, hahaha."

Cerity, Ketu, and Klen turned towards Aren as well.

"How are you feeling now, tough little guy?" Cerity asked with a smile.

Aren smiled as he mounted his sword before saying, "better than ever."

He was really feeling good, and he also knew the reason as he had seen notifications regarding that. However, he didn't waste time and wiped the smile from his face before saying with a serious expression, "there's a more dire matter at hand right now. While I was spying on those two people who created this mess, I heard some little bits of information and connected the dots."

"Oh? What did you hear?" Ketu asked as he felt that it was bad news judging from Aren's expression.

"From what I inferred, they actually created this mess to attract some powerhouses here while the neighbor kingdom would prepare to attack the capital town of Focrent Kingdom," Aren said with a dire expression, "I think you three should hurry and return to the capital town."

"What!"

The three of them were shocked.

"If that's the case, then I'm afraid we will have to leave right away," Cerity spoke as she turned to duke Heigan and said, "Heigan, finish the matter here and come to the capital town as soon as possible."

"We have no reason to doubt you this time as you have proved your trustworthiness," Klen said as he looked at Aren.

"Can I come with you to the capital town as well?" Aren suddenly asked, "my path's power to see through weakness can provide some help, and I might be able to help by staying in the backline."

Aren knew that there were certain risks involved, but he wouldn't put his life at stake in the front line after going there.

'Only by participating in battles high above my level and getting their quests can let me progress faster, I might be able to get quest after going to the capital city as well,' Aren thought as he looked at Cerity and others with a determined expression.

The quest that he completed just now was so dangerous that he would have a chance of dying ten out of ten times if a single attack hit him. Naturally, he almost died, but he survived because of these high-level powerhouses at the Epic Lifeform stage.

But in this dangerous quest, he received so much EXP and some juicy rewards.

And now that there was the opportunity of another quest at the capital town, he would get it as well.

Cerity, Klen, and Ketu looked at each other after hearing Aren's request.

"Alright. However, if what you said is true and that the neighbor kingdom really attacked the capital, we won't be able to protect you," Cerity said straightforwardly.

"No problem. I am not going to risk myself for the capital town as well. I will move sneakily, and at first sight of danger, I will run," Aren said with a grin.

Everyone was speechless, but they liked that Aren was honest about his thoughts.

"Hahaha, interesting guy." Ketu laughed before waving his hand and conjuring a dark green mattress below Aren, "sit on the mattress."

Aren was still covered in a protective barrier, but when he sat on the mattress, it also went inside the large bubble barrier.

"Let's go!" Cerity commanded as thunderclap reverberated, and the three of them zoomed in a certain direction.

Aren was dumbfounded at flying speed. He couldn't even see anything properly!

Fortunately, the barrier protected him from the intense wind pressure that would otherwise hit him at this speed.

On the other hand, duke Heigan smiled in the direction where Aren and others left and muttered, "Aren....It will be interesting to see how far you go up in this world."
