Before Draken could get in striking distance, the golem swung out its blade towards him.
"Not this time." Draken spoke with a fierce look as he watched the blade head towards him. When it was only inches away from hin he leapt up into the air, making the blade miss him and go below him. With Draken now above the golem's giant blade, he stepped on it and boosted himself more into the air until he was now in the same level as the golem's head. Gripping his dagger firmly, Draken stabbed it forward towards the golem's head. SHATTER! Upon making contact with the monster's head, the dagger shattered to pieces without leaving a scratch on the monster. 'The dagger...it shattered to pieces? The skin must be really hard that it shattered such powerful dagger!' Draken pondered internally as he was now landing back in the floor. Boom! Before Draken could land, the golem sent out a kick that connected neatly to his face and senr him flying several meters backwards, until he crashed into a building once more. "Ugh.." Draken grunted in pain as he lifted himself off the floor. His body were covered with bruises and part of his body were broken, but he could feel it healing up at an incredible speed. 'If i can't attack it with a weapon, then i have to feed it my fist.' Draken then clenched his fists tightly and began to charge forward while making a battle cry. "SOLAR DOMINATION HAS BEEN ACTIVATED" Activating the attribute, Draken could see the golem's speed slowing down. 'The attribute of the golem already dropped by 30%. It might have dropped but it's still hella sterong..i have to be careful.' Draken pondered as he watched the golem stabbed its blade towards him. The pace of the attack was quite slow than earlier, giving Draken the opportunity to serve his body sideways and dodge the strike. After successfully dodging the strike, Draken closed in on the golem, leaping few meters into the air, and sent out his clenched fist towards the unprotected chest. Boom! Draken's fist slammed heavily on the chest of the golem and caused it to roar in agony. Draken didn't stopped there, he landed back gracefully on the floor before leaping back up and sent out a clean punch to the head. Boom! The punch made impact, and the golem dropped it's blade and was knocked several meters backwards. "SOLAR DOMINATION HAS BEEN DEACTIVATED." Draken received the notification after knocking the golem several meters backwards. But the notification didn't trouble him.. "What do we have here." Draken the picked up the giant blade on the floor with his right hand. "I expected it to weigh more than this..but it's almost like i am carrying nothing." Draken intoned as he glanced at the blade before walking towards the golem who was still recovering from the punch and was currently on its knees. "You shall die by your own blade." Draken informed, gripping the blade with both hand before lifting it above his head and slashed it forward, taking the head clean off. Green blood splattered around as the gigantic head of the golem was chopped off. "YOU HAVE SLAIN A GOLEM" "YOU WILL NOW ADVANCE TO THE NEXT STAGE OF THE QUEST" Draken glanced at the screen while panting heavily. 'Next stage, eh? I wonder if that stage is where the boss resides.' Draken pondered intenally. What looked like a circular blue portal appeared in front of Draken and a strange force began to pull him in until he got sucked into the portal and vanished instantly. Seconds after vanishing from the area, Draken appeared in a whole new location. "What the hell?" Draken muttered while glancing around the place he found himself in. The area was filled with mountains that had volcano pouring out from it like water fall. Draken was currently standing on a mountain that was as tall as a skyscraper, and below him was a river of volcano. SCREECH! A loud screeching sound reverberated throughout the area as a figure flew towards Draken like a bird and attempted to slash him with its blade-like wings. In the last second, Draken managed to duck low and the monster missed its Target by hair length and flew over him. Draken swiftly regained composure and leap few steps backwards to move away from the edge and examine the monster. The monster looked like a goblin with wings. Green body, hard scales on its body like rock, the two wings behind it were as sharp and long like a katana blade. "What the hell?"

Green body, hard scales on its body like rock, the two wings behind it were as sharp and long like a katana blade. "What the hell is this thing?" Draken gulped down and cold sweat trickled down his face. He had a hint of fear on his face feeling the ominous pressure he got which sent shivers down his spines. “It a monster with threat level nine, save yourself” The system said. “What do you mean save yourself and a threat level 9 monster," Draken thought with his heart beating widely. A monster this strong is enough to crush him to bits. He was thinking about the danger when he heard a loud howl which shook the entire dungeon. A body which Draken guessed was the size of a building was revealed. "What is this," Draken asked as he looked at the ball of blood red eyes which seemed almost as if it could see his soul. It has the head of a wolf, 8 tentacles and two strong and massive legs. It First beast:Beast: GoblinBreed: Fire ClanHeight: 3 feet tallStrength: AverageSpeed: 100Threat level: 9Proficiency: Fire Lord Second beast Beast: Mutated WolfBreed: Fire clanHeight: 10 feet longStrength: 50Speed: AverageThreat level: 9Proficiency: Fire lord Draken looked at the blue screen which displayed the monster status also showing its picture. “Ding: Danger Detected. Host Run away from here,” The system said. “It not like I don't want to run, it just that there is no where to run to,” Draken said as beads of sweat dropped down from his forehead. “I have to defeat the to be able to get out,” Draken thought as he brought out the Blade he got from the previous monster. “System I can't fight this beast with my current strength, what can you do to help me? I can't die," Dave said to the system. "Scanning random skill," The system said. “Scanning completed, two skill found: Skill transfer. Ice age and Time freeze,” The system said as two notification pops up. It contains how to use the skill and their abilities. “Ice age:Abilities: Can turn environment within 50km cold and bone chilling. Time duration: 20 minutes Time freeze Can freeze the world Duration: 5 seconds. Draken read the notification while keeping an eye on the two monsters. “Ice age is a good skill when counter attacking monsters of fire elements. Time freeze is also good. But to maximise their power I have to get the perfect timing to use them,” Draken thought. “Screech,” The gobin yelled as it moved at a very fast speed towards Draken baring it long claws and fangs. Draken turned the blade using it to collide with the claws of the goblin blocking it. The force blasted him back making him fall hard to the ground. Draken used struggled to stand up. “What a powerful force,” Draken thought as he wiped the blood that trickles down the corner of his lips with the back of his handsLatest Chapter
Chapter 156: The Balance
Chapter Title: The Balance That Refuses to Kneel The pressure did not strike all at once. It built. Slow. Measured. Deliberate. The large entity did not rush forward like the unstable ones before it. It did not lash out or distort the space in chaotic bursts. Instead, it expanded its influence with precision, testing the boundaries of the framework, pressing against it in controlled waves. Jacob felt each one. Not as pain. Not as force. But as resistance. Like something was trying to rewrite the rules they had just created. Lira stood beside him, her focus sharpened to its limit. “It’s pushing without attacking,” she said. Jacob nodded. “Because it doesn’t need to.” The presence confirmed. Strategic pressure detected That was the difference. This entity understood. It had already reached a level the others were still struggling toward. It did not need to destroy the framework. It only needed to prove it was unnecessary. And slowly… It was doing exactly that. Ano
Chapter 155: The First Fracture Of Certainty
Chapter Title: The First Fracture of Certainty The shift was small. So small that, if Jacob had not been paying attention with every part of his awareness, he might have missed it entirely. But he did not miss it. He felt it. The large entity, the one that had stood as a symbol of absolute certainty, had changed. Not in form. Not in strength. But in something deeper. Its stillness was no longer complete. Its presence no longer perfectly rigid. A flaw had appeared. Or perhaps… An opening. Lira leaned slightly closer, her voice barely above a whisper. “It moved.” Jacob nodded. “Yeah.” The presence confirmed. Adaptive process reactivated The words echoed with a quiet significance. Because this was not just a reaction. It was a decision. The large entity pulsed again. But this time… The pulse was uneven. Not chaotic. But no longer perfectly controlled. It carried variation. And that variation spread. The entities aligned with it reacted immediately. Their ri
Chapter 154: Weight Of Too Many Choices
Chapter Title: The Weight of Too Many Choices The space did not descend into chaos. That would have been easier to understand. Instead, it became something far more complicated. Alive with decisions. Everywhere Jacob looked, entities moved through different stages of becoming. Some glided into stability almost effortlessly, adopting the framework as if it had always belonged to them. Others drifted in uncertainty, lingering between formation and collapse, their shapes flickering with hesitation. And then there were the ones that resisted. Not all of them in the same way. Some rejected the framework outright, pushing against it with sharp, erratic bursts of energy. Others circled it, brushing against the pattern only to pull away again, as if something within them refused to settle. The space responded to all of it. It adapted. The framework expanded naturally, adjusting its presence without forcing itself. The areas where stability increased began to feel different, smoothe
Chapter 153: The Ones That Refuse The Pattern
Chapter Title: The Ones That Refuse the Pattern They came in waves. Not all at once, not in a single overwhelming surge, but steadily, inevitably. Distortions emerged from the deeper expanse like fragments of a broken idea trying to piece itself together. Some were faint, barely holding shape. Others were already forming, their outlines flickering with unstable intent. And now, for the first time, there was something waiting for them. The framework. Invisible to the eye, but woven into the space itself. A quiet offering. A path toward balance, toward structure, toward something more than chaos. Jacob stood at the center of it, his breathing steady, his focus absolute. “Here they come,” Lira said under her breath. “I see them,” Jacob replied. The presence spoke. Multiple entities entering interaction range The entity added. “Behavioral divergence expected.” Jacob nodded. “Let’s see.” The first of the incoming distortions reached the outer edge of the framework. It pulsed
Chapter 152: the past
The horizon did not hold. It filled. Slowly at first, like mist gathering over water, the faint silhouettes continued to form. One became three, three became ten, ten stretched into dozens. Each figure wavered at the edge of reality before stepping forward and solidifying just enough to exist. Not fully alive. Not entirely gone. Something in between. Azrael stood his ground, his eyes scanning the growing crowd as his grip on Quinn tightened ever so slightly. His instincts told him to prepare for a fight. But nothing attacked. Nothing rushed him. Nothing even showed aggression. They simply… arrived. “…Yeah,” he muttered under his breath. “This is getting out of hand.” The woman beside him didn’t respond immediately. Her attention was fixed on the expanding field of figures, her expression sharper than it had ever been. “This isn’t supposed to happen,” she said quietly. Azrael smirked faintly. “You keep saying that.” Her gaze flicked to him briefly. “And you keep maki
Chapter 151: Echoes That Refuse to Fade
Chapter Title: Echoes That Refuse to Fade The wind did not settle. It grew. Not violently, not with the chaotic rage of a storm, but with a steady, deliberate increase that carried weight far beyond air in motion. It pressed against Azrael’s clothes, tugged lightly at his hair, and whispered across the open land with a tone that felt almost like a warning. Something had changed again. Not suddenly. Not sharply. But undeniably. Azrael stood still, his eyes fixed on the horizon as the feeling settled deeper into his bones. The world ahead looked the same, stretched wide and endless, but it no longer felt like something he could simply walk through. It felt like something that would answer back. “…You feel that too, right?” he asked. The woman didn’t hesitate this time. “Yes.” Her voice was quieter than usual, more focused. “It’s spreading.” Azrael exhaled slowly. “Yeah.” A pause. “Not just here.” His grip on Quinn tightened slightly. “Everywhere.” Quinn responded im
