"Halt!"Ravstein's sharp command stilled our movement.The air vibrated with a sound of footsteps—a rapid, unsettling rhythm utterly unlike anything human.This ominous symphony was punctuated by the guttural shriek of approaching monsters.Ravstein swiftly drew his blade, his nine B-rank knights mirroring his action, their similar swords glinting in the dim light of mana power."There's something incoming..! Right?!", Asetria's query was a tense affirmation as she braced herself, her opulent knight's shield gleaming.No response came; the knights were already attuned to the rapidly approaching threat."They're here! Annihilate them!" Ravstein barked the order as the first monstrous ant—a brutal, human-sized insect—erupted from the earth.The monstrous ants swarmed, their mandibles snapping, their assault relentless.But Ravstein's blade was a whirlwind of death, a single, precise stroke cleaving the first ant in two.His knights met the onslaught with equal ferocity, parrying and cou

Froza, the Ice Sorceress, raised her staff, unleashing a torrent of shimmering azure light.From this ethereal energy coalesced a colossal ice spear, a jagged behemoth that hung suspended in the air.Its chilling sharpness, its immense size—undeniable evidence of the brutal power that had reduced those knights to the gruesome piles of corpses scattered around the sorceress."Ash, don't worry! I will protect you!" Asteria sprang before me, her shield a defiant bulwark against the impending doom.Her speed was admirable, her defensive preparations with fortified magical protection is swift, but I had a grave doubts about their efficacy.The ghastly remains of those knights, their body hollowed and ravaged, still bore the horrific testament to Froza's icy wrath."Asteria! No!—"My desperate cry was swallowed by the wind.It was too late.The ice spear, a missile of glacial fury, hurtled toward us, piercing Asteria's defenses with contempt

>Utilized Soul of Necromancer (x1)>You now can use Resurrection Spell for once!The Necromancer's Soul, a malevolent gleam, ignited the mana coursing through the fallen knights, resurrecting them from their icy slumber.Eleven dead Knight, risen from the frostbite's grip, formed a desperate shield on what it left from their body to protect me against the onslaught.Even I still forced to kneel due to the Frost Bite effect, at least those eleven resurrected Knights had already formed firmly in front of me, waiting for incoming Froza's brutal attack.Despite the newly defense formation, Froza's ice javelins launched with lethal precision, pierced the resurrected warriors, their bodies becoming ravaged husks, yet they held firm, absorbing the deadly barrage.I gasped, witnessing their horrifying sacrifice."Using the dead as pawns? Their annihilation is assured! You are doomed, sorcerer!" Froza taunted, summoning another Ice Javelins then launched it for fully extinct those resurrected

In an instant, Ravstein and his henchmen rush towards Ariana, their swords unsheathed and ready to strike.Ariana valiantly withstood the relentless onslaught of quick and furious slashes from Ravstein and his minions, using her shield as a defense.However, her shield soon began to show signs of wear under the unrelenting assault, along with her armor.Ravstein then delivered a crushing blow to Ariana's stomach, causing her to double over in excruciating pain."Keep her alive for now. I want her to witness the downfall of Ash before her own demise," Ravstein commanded his henchmen, who immediately redirected their focus towards me.As I heard Ravstein take his first step towards me, my instincts kicked in and I quickly invoked the Gaia's Endowment spell to fortify my defense and reinforce my magical barrier.But in the blink of an eye, Ravstein's blade had already strucked my stomach. Though my magical barrier softened the blow, the searing pain felt like a powerful punch to the gut

>You get 50.000 Monster Diamond!>You no longer posioned!>The Magic Damage return to normal rate!I fulfilled the Special Quest, but my feeling seems hollow.Probably because it's my first time defeat human.I'm not questioning how cruel I am to do such things.I'm questioning how evil human can be, which I found crueler than Monster.Human and Monster seems no difference in my eyes now.If they are threatening my family, whether it's human or monster, they will be defeated by my hand.Amidst my thought, I see ten Knights that getting burned entirely starting to fading out.There wll be no trace or blood track for anyone to reveal this bloody battle in public.But there's one witness that watch this entire mess, which is Avyanna.Behind me, Asteria went speechless.Her staring at Ravstein and his henchmen getting burned made her shaking in fear.She quickly gasped when realize I currently look at her.I understand that she's afraid on me
