Chapter 216: A Single Battle Against Dozens (Please Subscribe!)

Two figures clashed under the moonlight.

The sound of spear meeting battle axe erupted, scattering sparks and impact noises across rooftops and sky stone bridges alike.

The silver spear and double-headed battle axe performed a thunderous dance of war.

Izay skillfully deflected Fulini’s powerful downward strikes with precise technique, flipping his spear to counterattack. With a single swing, he was upon her, unleashing a storm of spear strikes like a torrential rain.

“This brat…!!!”

As they fought head-on, Fulini grew increasingly alarmed. Her frog-like dark face revealed her shock.

Even though he wields a spear, he’s trying to close the distance?!

Doesn’t he know that engaging in such ultra-short-range combat when facing a great axe is practically suicidal?!

Compared to a spear that requires thrusting and jabbing for maximum effect, wielding an axe is far simpler.

All you need to do is lift it high and bring it down.

At this range where you can reach out and touch your opponent, the great axe should have an absolute advantage over the spear!

But…

“—It’s gotta be fake, right?”

That’s just common sense.

Common sense doesn’t apply to Izay!

The combat experience “skills and tactics” cultivated among a group of Lv.5 and Lv.6 individuals at home isn’t something to be trifled with when applied in real battles.

Plus, his impressive ability value attributes.

There’s no common sense in him when it comes to being a lancer!

No opportunity to intercept his spear, impossibly fast thrusts leaving only afterimages, a dark silver spear piercing through without any gaps!

Uninterrupted super-speed combos that don’t even require breathing!

From the very start, Fulini had underestimated him, and by the time she realized Izay’s true strength, it was already too late.

Her throat, shoulders, heart, joints, and forehead were all accounted for and protected.

Somewhere along the way, the female giant could only passively defend herself, swinging her massive axe.

Though the heavy axe brought unmatched killing power, against the relentless thrusts, it seemed exceptionally cumbersome! Barely allowing her to block the numerous spear strikes coming from all angles.

The battle was extremely intense, and the surrounding Amazon warriors who prepared to support drew sharp breaths as they assessed the situation.

“Are you kidding me? Fulini is actually being suppressed!?”

“Crazy offensive rhythm, I’ve only seen someone fight like that with a spear on that [Hero]…”

“The [Silver Star] and the [Hero] are from the same faction…”

“But I thought he started with a bow?”

“…”

The last question was selectively ignored by everyone.

After all, they all saw Izay appear with a longbow, so how did he end up with a spear now? Who knows about these things?

Maybe he placed his weapon nearby from the start? That seems to be the only explanation.

“Is that guy really Lv.4!? If you told me he’s Lv.5, I’d believe it.”

On the sidelines, Samira, the white-haired Amazon warrior anxiously observing the battle situation without finding a chance to intervene, was getting restless.

She didn’t like feeling like a mere spectator.

Amazons are all war-loving creatures.

“To become the fastest level-up in the world, there must be some outstanding qualities, clearly not undeserved.”

Aisha watched calmly from the side, and in her view, the defeat of the toad was only a matter of time.

After all, remember this—up until now, Izay hasn’t used a single magic spell yet.

Izay’s magic once caused quite a stir among adventurers.

During his first extermination of winged dragons, many adventurers witnessed his magic.

The specific effects of the magic were exaggerated to the point of being mythical, making it hard for people like Aisha, who hadn’t seen it firsthand, to judge.

However, one thing was certain.

—Izay’s magic is absolutely strong!

Meanwhile, on the stone bridge, Fulini’s face contorted.

From start to finish, it wasn’t the great axe taking the initiative, but rather a fragile spear in her eyes.

The azure flames on the spear were scorching hot, causing her prideful dual weapons to groan in protest, even developing cracks!

Stronger than even first-tier adventurer equipment!?

Despite her reluctance to admit it, the trend of the battle was gradually tilting towards Izay.

“You bastard!!!”

Fulini unleashed a powerful slash with all her might in uncontrollable fury.

Driven by rage, this super-powered attack immediately set off Izay’s “intuition.”

In the next moment, he dodged this overwhelmingly powerful attack at a speed invisible to the naked eye.

The stones turned into powder and fragments, exploding with a violent blast. The aftermath overturned the stone-paved bridge.

A thick rock elemental shield spread around Izay, evading the slash while also nullifying the residual waves of the attack.

Without even retreating or creating distance, merely shifting his position, facing the fleeting opening created by the female giant’s forceful strike, he gathered his spear and delivered a spinning kick.

“—Bang!”

A dull sound announced the successful hit. After a brief pause, an explosive force equivalent to that of a top-tier adventurer erupted, stirring up the wind around him. Then came the sound of a heavy object flying, followed by a croak-like scream of pain.

“——————!”

Boom!

With one kick, the toad was sent flying back to the Sky Garden, her massive body crashing through the outer wall and the garden lawn, raising a cloud of dust.

“Can anger amplify to the uppermost level of a Lv.5 attack!? It must be due to a ‘skill,’ probably a skill that increases strength through anger… Quite fitting for the Amazons.”

“Although it might just be my guess, it’s not impossible…”

“This toad…”

Could she possibly lack magical aptitude?

Standing with his spear at rest, Izay made a reasonable guess.

Under the circumstances of being overwhelmed and enraged, if she had magic, she should have used it by now.

After all, judging by her appearance, she looked like she wanted nothing more than to crush him flat.

If it’s just a ‘skill,’ that’s another matter. Most ‘rare skills’ come with activation conditions.

Perhaps the condition wasn’t met?

Well, never mind all that, let’s just finish her off with magic next!

The battle continuation ability (life force) of a Lv.5 adventurer is terrifyingly strong. This level of attack would at most leave the toad with minimal health. Izay was well aware of this.

To finish her off, a decisive blow was needed.

Looking in the direction the toad flew, Izay’s pupils flashed with a hint of silver.

But soon, he noticed his current predicament—he was surrounded.

“Hooh? So you’re planning to gang up on me with dozens of you?” Izay said mockingly.

“—Huh? There’s no other way, kid! You’re too strong for me alone to handle!”

Samira, who had been itching to fight, was the first to charge forward.

It didn’t matter if the opponent was stronger; losing was expected. But what did it matter? She just wanted to fight.

Her blade was raised high and swung down, but Izay easily blocked and pushed it aside, sending her flying with a whip kick.

For some reason, ever since he learned how to use a spear, Izay found himself disliking hitting people with his hands. Almost everything was done with leg strikes.

The feeling of kicking someone far away… it was amazing!

And it looked cool too~

But despite how cool it was, the Amazons wouldn’t give him a chance to bask in it. Taking Samira’s attack as a signal, dozens of them swarmed toward him in groups.
