Nothing matters in the face of absolute power.   

A long fight was always a bad fight. Alain knew this, and he was experiencing it now.

While he mastered the boar with ease, Alain continued to suffer injuries. But this did not worry him. He knew that in the long run, he would still win this fight.

That's why he continued the same strategy over and over again, weakening the beast more and more, forcing it to make a choice.

---

Seeing that the fight was going badly, the boar began to think about the usefulness of this fight.

Honestly, he wasn't sure he would win the fight. If he had to decide on a percentage, then he would surely be able to win 60 fights out of 100.

'Risks are too high'

Running away would surely be the best option.

But would the human in front give him the opportunity? A short glance at the corpses on the ground gave him the answer.

Besides, it wasn't as if there weren't also benefits to fighting. If he ever won, then not only would he come home with booty, this fight would be a chance for him to evolve his bloodline, greatly increasing his talent and strength.

That was the main difference between a normal species and a primordial species.

If that was all, then he would be in a major dilemma right now. Yet, his choice was already made.

He would fight and win.

For just as this human in front of him had a reason to resent them, he also had a reason. The very existence of humans was unbearable in his eyes.

This was not an individual thought, but a collective feeling more or less shared in the pigs' family.

Of course, not everyone had it, and he had to admit that this feeling was particularly present in the weak, and the untalented.

But he accepted it. He had never been strong in anything, and even after a lifetime of fighting, he couldn't surpass his opponent in terms of technique.

So all he had left was absolute strength.

The beast's eyes lit up as he began to charge his most powerful attack. He didn't try to do anything complex but put all of his energy into one attack.

The move was a gamble. If he succeeded, then he would survive, barely having the strength to devour the bodies and return to his own. If not, he would be at the mercy of his enemy.

---

The boar's body lit up as he gathered his energy into a single point, into his energy center.

''Haha'' Alain laughed nervously. He could clearly see what the opponent was planning but had no way to stop it. Attacking recklessly would leave the perfect chance for his enemy to attack, with or without his completed attack. At that point, even if only 10% of the beast's energy was used, he would surely die in one blow.

He could only take it.

He did not hesitate to circulate his energy several times in his body to strengthen it, damaging his body even more in the process. Then, he took all his energy and put it on his blade.

His arm couldn't take the pressure, so he temporarily strengthened it by influencing it with energy. Anyway, he just couldn't put all his energy into his sword. He needed a link to continue his supply. And that link happened to be his arm. Obviously, though, his arm was now under a tremendous amount of pressure. But that wasn't important right now.

He was now ready to block that energy.

''Fff!'' at an extraordinary speed the boar's energy shot towards Alain, who blocked it with his sword.

The sword shook like his arm for several seconds under the shock of the energy.

''Pary it !''

But words were meaningless in a fight.

The pressure of the energy decreased sharply but still managed to swing Alain's sword, which then broke in two, no longer strengthened at all by Alain's energy.

Alain reacted directly by strengthening his arm completely and used his arm to block the energy before it entered his body.

Strangely, he felt no pain, just a strange sensation where his arm seemed to be full of something.

But he didn't really have time to feel it or describe it.

His right arm exploded directly, and the rest of the energy, now extremely weakened projected Alain a dozen meters away.

''No...'' Alain couldn't believe his eyes, which were gradually closing.

'Why is this world like this, why is it that any will can never blossom because always confronted with absolute power? '

That day, he relearned a very basic rule.

That nothing matters in the face of absolute power.

Seeing this, the energy-starved boar smiled and used the rest of his strength to walk slowly towards Alain to finish him.

10 meters, 5 meters, 3 meters, 1 meter.

The boar was now going to finish Alain.

Plot armor ! Where are you ?!
