71 Episode XIII: Testing Your Skills ② (1/2)

The demon from a very close distance was very powerful. His breath was ragged and his skin had a strange sheen of steel. I could feel a strong heat, perhaps his body temperature was higher than that of a human.

But I didn't wilt when a huge fist fell on me from above.

Compared to the dog, which was as huge as a stall, I wondered what a humanoid creature would be like now.

My flesh creaked with pain. Literally, the demon's face twisted in astonishment.

It's a stupid ...... thing to do. It's impossible ......

Not bad, champion.

I didn't choose to evade the fist. I did not choose to evade the fist. The iron-colored fist, which was a size larger than mine, was filled with tremendous power.

But apparently, while the demon's power was great, it wasn't as great as the vampire's, who had grown up sucking the finest blood.

The fist in his palm made a creaking sound. The face of the demon, with its sharp fangs, was tense and veiny. But even with all that force, my body doesn't move.

I'm still fine. There is a difference in the thickness of my arms, my weight, my build, everything, but I am stronger.

I deflect the fist that catches me to the side. His huge body is thrown off his feet. As I tried to strike a blow to his open body, my body was blown into the air with a violent impact. I felt my bones break and my flesh distort.

I swooped through the air and managed to land on the floor.

I was kicked in the pigeon tail. But it didn't hurt that much, and I gave him a blow to the stomach instead. The wound has already healed.

”Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

The demon roared and kicked the ground hard. But perhaps the blow to his body had taken effect, his movements were slower than before and his center of gravity was wavering.

It seems that this one has better durability and regeneration ability.

Just as the demons had just done with each other, they hit each other head-on.

I could have avoided it, but I didn't need to. The demons had claws and fangs, and their fists were bony and almost blunt, but they were not made of silver. Perhaps that's how they do it, so I'll do the same.

The more you hit, the more you get hit. Your vision blurs, your flesh creaks, your body shakes with the impact. You get hit in the head, in the shoulders, in the stomach, in the legs.

But only the champion's momentum fades, even though he takes the same amount of damage.

The champion's energy was fierce because he had won, but he could not escape his physical limitations.

Finally, a blow to the jaw shakes the head and the champion falls to his knees.

How inconvenient it is for a living organism to be unable to move just because its brain is shaken.

The game was already decided. Well, I had a handicap, but I'm the champion now.

And I can still fight. Wounds healed, no fatigue.

And I asked the other demons who were watching me with bated breath.

”Looking good. Who's up for the next challenge?

Too strong. The scene that unfolded in front of her eyes was unbelievable, even for Monica who had prior knowledge.

The Ogre, known for his superior physical strength, was being outmatched by a being two heads smaller than him. The palms of his hands, which were joined together by gravity, gradually lifted, and even though the Ogre put all his strength into them until his face turned red, they didn't move even a little.

The end has a cool expression. Of course. Because his body is already dead.

I was going to measure his strength. But even with a quick check, its power could be a natural enemy to the Demon Lord Rainer's army.

In the first place, it was an opponent that Oliver, who boasted of his superior regenerative abilities and monstrous strength, would fear.

All things have their affinities. The undead, humans, and the Demon Lord's army are in a three-way relationship.

The Demon Lord's Army, which has many species with superior physical abilities, tends to overpower humans. Even if the opponent is a Knight of the End, they will not be defeated so easily. However, on the other hand, they are extremely weak against unworldly beings - high-ranking undead with superior physical abilities, regenerative abilities, and bodies that do not suffer from fatigue.

This is because power is a source of pride for most of the races that make up the Demon Lord's army, except for Monica, who is a demon.

Vampires have many weaknesses in exchange for their enormous power, but the Demon Lord does not approve of exploiting them. He will turn weapons into silver, but he will not use running water, crosses, or garlic. He believes that if he uses such things, he will be reduced to the same existence as the people he looks down upon.

At first glance, the battle between the demon warrior and End seemed to be very close.

The demon's fist pierced End's body and blew him away easily. The End's kick made the demon's body, which was as hard as steel, creak strongly.
