Chapter 670: Chapter 670
Hobah's argument about Zew's superiority seemed to have solidified Shea's resolve.
Zew responded to Shea's determination by also activating [Full Beast Mode].
With Zew's activation of the Skill [Full Beast Mode], the bodies of the Ten Heroic Beasts grew significantly. The Skills Beast Mode and Full Beast Mode empowered the surrounding beastmen.
"Wow! I feel the power surging within me!"
As Hobah, transformed into a giant beast, felt the power welling up from within, the other Ten Heroic Beasts also began to change.
'I'll deal with Zew. Luvanka, handle the rest of the small fry.'
Shea gave orders to Luvanka in a dismissive manner.
'Understood. No problem.'
'Of course. I am prepared to become the first Evil Beast Emperor in history!'
Both of their fists avoided each other and collided with each other's faces as if drawn in.
'Ugh! As expected of Zew!'
As the physical battle between Shea and Zew unfolded, Hobah, the largest of the Ten Heroic Beasts, stopped Luvanka's advance.
"Uoooo! What incredible strength!?"
Even though Hobah, who had grown to over three meters tall, held a massive orichalcum hammer, the size difference compared to the 30-meter-tall Luvanka was like an adult to a puppy.
With two arms extending from his armpits, he easily restrained Hobha and the hammer, while the two thick arms extending from his shoulder blades each formed fists and aimed at Hobah.
However, the fists never struck.
"Alright, Hobah, well done stopping him!! Take this! Flame Lance!!"
As if drawn in, the Mage Emperor Rato aimed countless fire arrows, formed by his fire magic, at Luvanka's face, blinding him.
"Yahoo! Senu, take the other side!!"
The combative weasel beastman, Claw Beast Emperor Pazu, leaped up and attacked one of the arms extending from Luvanka's shoulder blades with his orichalcum claws.
Responding to Claw Beast Emperor Pazu, Twin Sword Beast Emperor Senu wrapped around the other hand extending from Luvanka's shoulder and unleashed his orichalcum twin swords.
The sound of the attacks on Luvanka's fur echoed as if it wasn't fur being cut.
'Hmph! Is that all!?'
As his Strength rapidly decreased, Luvanka tried to shake off the Ten Heroic Beasts who coordinated their attacks, making use of their size difference.
"Hmph! We'll completely blind him!!"
Sealing all the movements of Luvanka's arms was part of the Ten Heroic Beasts' coordinated strategy.
The coordination of the Ten Heroic Beasts was thanks to the nearly month-long trials in the temple.
'Got it, we blinded him! Lazo and Hachi, come with me...'
Aiming to confront Luvanka head-on were Halberd Beast Emperor Lazo, a rhino beastman wielding a halberd, and Sword Beast Emperor Hachi, a dog beastman carrying a sword and shield.
However, letting them attack continuously and the fact that they hadn't used the Awakened Skill [Mythical Beast Mode] were part of Luvanka and Shea's strategy.
Luvanka, who had lost enough Strength, uttered a special move that would bring despair to the Ten Heroic Beasts.
'It's time! Beast Claw!!'
'Huh? What!? What are these fists!? Gah!!'
Upon activation, Luvanka blew Hobah away with enormous claws formed from coagulated blood, scattering Claw Beast Emperor Pazu and Twin Sword Beast Emperor Senu.
As the bleeding Hobah was blown away, Halberd Beast Emperor Lazo and Sword Beast Emperor Hachi caught him from behind.
"All-Heal! Damn monster!!"
Holy Beast Sage Fui, who had been waiting for the right moment to heal, instantly healed Hobah and the others who had been injured by Luvanka's claws.
However, with the activation of the special move [Beast Blood], Luvanka brought further despair to the Ten Heroic Beasts.
'Mythical Beast Mode!!'
Luvanka activated the Awakened Skill [Mythical Beast Mode].
"We can't lose! Our defeat means Lord Zew's defeat!!"
Hobah rallied everyone's fighting spirit against the empowered Luvanka.
The physical battle between Shea and Zew continued.
In Full Beast Mode, Shea tackled Zew from the shoulder.
Seeing Zew being struck and blown away by Shea in the background as they constantly tracked Luvanka, Hobah and the others couldn't help but feel despair.
'Is that all you have, Zew!?'
Shea closed the distance for further attacks.
Both Shea and Zew's Strength was recovering at a rate of 1% per second due to the Skill Full Beast Mode's super healing effect, but Shea's attacks were heavy, and Zew's Strength was gradually being worn down.
'I won't let you go any further! This is the choice you made. It's too late to regret it now!!'
With the special move [Beast Blood] and the Awakened Skill [Mythical Beast Mode], Luvanka overwhelmed the Ten Heroic Beasts' stats.
"Lord Zew is in danger! Target Lady Shea!!"
"I understand. But at this rate, we're in danger too. Use your Extra Skills on Luvanka!!"
"But if we do that, we won't be able to defeat Shea-sama!!"
In the chaos, the Ten Heroic Beasts struggled to coordinate their actions.
Even while having his back to Shea, he crushed the front-liners and didn't neglect vigilance against the mid and rear guards, showcasing the coordination developed through nearly a month of trials. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ NovᴇlFire(.)nᴇt
Shea surpassed Zew in terms of equipment, stats, skills, and combat sense.
In the S-Rank Dungeon, Zew certainly fought desperately and won.
But Zew's desperate fight against an opponent far stronger than himself only occurred in that one instance.
Shea, having fought many deadly battles against the Demon King's Army in the Central Continent and Rosenheim, was far superior.
In battles against higher-ranking demons like Gushara and Basque, where even Lud was killed, and in fierce battles against higher-ranking demons and the Demon King's army in the underwater Prostia Empire, Shea participated in the trials against the founder Albahar and Beast God Giran in the divine realm.
Moreover, in the bottom floor of the S-Rank Dungeon, she spent more than 10 hours daily in intense training for several months to raise her Skill Levels.
All of this was to become the Beast Emperor and to fight and win alongside her comrades against the Demon King's Army.
Zew, despite his confusion, began to roar loudly.
Shea got into Zew's guard and delivered a full-strength blow to his abdomen.
Letting out a painful cry, Zew was blown away.
As Zew landed on his stomach, Shea straddled him and pinned him down.
"Lord Zew, are you alright!!"
From afar, Hobah shouted anxiously for Zew.
Shea began to hit Zew's head with all her might.
It was like the act of torturing the Beast Prince Bek during the Beast King Martial Arts Tournament by Beast Prince Gil.
At first, Zew, trying to get up and escape, gradually lost all his strength.
"Hey, isn't she his sister? This is unreal..."
Lepe, watching from afar, was stunned by Shea's actions.
With the Skill Full Beast Mode, Zew's Strength recovered at a rate of 1% per second.
To deliver a decisive blow, Shea restrained Zew's movements and began to deplete his Stamina with normal attacks.
"Fui, forget about us! Heal Lord Zew quickly... gah!?"
"We'll be wiped out at this rate!!"
Holy Beast Sage Fui ignored Hobah's orders and spread healing magic to his comrades.
Luvanka's attacks were so powerful that the Ten Heroic Beasts struggled to survive while fighting.
However, this also meant that Luvanka had no intention of actually killing the Ten Heroic Beasts.
As the Ten Heroic Beasts hesitated in their actions, Shea didn't wait.
Zew, beaten so much that his facial skin peeled off and his jaw and cheekbones were exposed, looked on the verge of death.
Tears streamed from his eyelidless eyes.
'Shea, I'm sorry for pushing you this far...'
Zew, his face contorted with madness, apologized to Shea.
The Ten Heroic Beasts desperately encouraged Zew, but his fighting spirit had long been lost.
Raising one hand high, Shea prepared to deliver the final blow.
She had whittled down Zew's Strength to the point where one more strike would deplete it completely.
'Do it! Finish it!! You can defeat him with your Skill! Crush his head!!'
The excited Beast God Garm made a punching gesture in front of him, cheering with joy.
'Uoooooohhhh! True Demolishing Punch!!'
'Rena, I wanted to see you one more time...'
As Shea's fist came down, an unprecedented sound echoed through the temple hall.
T/N - Hello everyone. So regarding the chapter update, I apologise for the delay. I had almost forgotten about the year end thing and it kinda messed up my schedule with some other task. I will promptly get back to the original schedule.
So, right now we’re 2 chapters behind. One chapter each that was meant for the previous two weeks (while I only updated three/week, including this one), so my attempt is to get back on schedule this week. Once again, I am really sorry.
Pending Chapter Count - 0/2 (excluding weekly 4 chapters release)
