Clank! Clank! Clank!
Loud metallic sounds echoed continuously in the air as two figures fought fiercely, interspersed by rough grunts and huffed breaths.
The fight between the two of them raged on when suddenly the scythe-like limbs seen on the giant's back shot over its head, towards its opponent. The attack was so abrupt that it managed to get past Zach Talon's swordplay, landing onto the Bahamut Armor protecting his body.
"Argh!"
A grunt of pain escaped the Dragon bloodline's mouth as his armor was pierced by the scythe-like limbs, but still as ferocious as ever, he didn't stop. Instead, his movements began to grow fiercer as he unleashed his powerful battle art.
[Hell Raiser]
The huge execution sword in Zach's hand created a wide arc in the air before turning into a flurry of afterimages that seemed determined to overwhelm anything in its path.
It attacked the scythe-like arms rapidly without stopping because its wielder knew the dangers of allowing such weapons to roam free, and under the relentless onslaught, the giant's scythe-like arms eventually broke apart.
After making sure that the giant couldn't use its scythe-like arm anymore, the injured Dragon bloodline quickly dashed backwards away from the other party. Blood spilled all over his armor from the open wound, but Zach still kept his gaze fixed at his opponent. Only when he had a little distance did he avert his gaze and begin to heal his wound.
Meanwhile, the three-meter giant was about to chase after Zach when an arrow flew towards it at breakneck speed. It was clear that the arrow was to stop the giant from doing what it had planned.
The giant swiftly moved its body to the side to dodge the arrow, and from the looks of it, it was about to fly past the giant's body. But then, the arrow suddenly changed its trajectory in midair, curving towards its chest.
Crcckkk!!
A crisp sound sounded in the air as the arrow hit the giant. Unfortunately, it missed its intended target – the golden orb, and pierced the giant's arm instead. Apparently, the giant managed to move its arm in the arrow's trajectory at the last moment.
Luckily, the special arrow Eeshoo shot still managed to achieve its objective. It had stopped and pushed the giant back a few meters, giving Zach enough room to take a respite.
By now, the battle between the three figures had lasted for more than ten minutes since the Abyss creature transformed, and it still hadn't shown any sign of ending. It had somehow turned into a stalemate.

Zach's third transformation had given him a terrifying strength, comparable to a peak Full Moon magus. Meanwhile, the high-tier artifacts that Eeshoo possessed increased his spirit force to match the spells of a halfmoon magus.
With the two cooperating with each other, they were just barely able to deal with the transformed Abyss creature. However, things did not go too well for the two of them.
Both Zach and Eeshoo were forced to fight harder and harder as time went on, the giant figure became more powerful by the minutes.
It was as if it only just learned the basic functions of its humanoid body at the beginning, and now it finally adapted and fought seriously.
As the broken scythe-like arms slowly regenerated to their initial state, everyone could feel the giant's strength gradually increasing. At this point, even the calm face Eeshoo always wore showed a hint of despair.
This time, instead of rushing towards the Dragon bloodline again, the giant's figure shot in another direction instead. It seemed to have decided to focus its attention on getting rid of the annoying ranged fighter.
Realizing this, Jinkan decided to warn her partner once again. However, the latter could only stand still as he was in the midst of preparing a powerful attack. Hence Eeshoo quickly controlled his 32 Soaring Shuttle. The shuttles swiftly flew in front of him and arranged themselves into a barrier.
Even though an obstruction had been formed in its path, the transformed Abyss creature still maintained its trajectory as if it didn't see it. It continued to dash at full speed straight towards Eeshoo's visible figure behind the barrier. A loud sound rang out in the air as it crashed onto the barrier and smashed the Soaring Shuttles into pieces.
Even though the creature was getting closer, Eeshoo still maintained his composure. In the end, as the barrier was completely shattered, he finally finished the spell he cast on the arrow and unleashed it at the creature.
Whooossshhh–!!
The sharp sound of air being split apart rang out as the arrow shot towards the giant's figure at breakneck speed. It had no chance to dodge at point-blank range, and thus the arrow managed to pierce through and make a glaring hole in its chest.
Unfortunately, the arrow still didn't manage to hit the intended target. The Abyss creature managed to move its body at the last second, creating a hole only a few centimeters from the golden orb.
However, Eeshoo didn't have time to worry about such a thing as the giant still didn't stop despite the huge hole in its chest. With only a few meters separating the two of them, the Nephilim genius didn't have enough time to escape.
Therefore a powerful blow landed on Eeshoo.
BAMMM!!!
The latest_epi_sodes are on_the ʟɪɢʜᴛɴᴏᴠᴇʟᴡᴏʀʟᴅ.ᴄᴏᴍ website.
The giant's fist that was capable of destroying the mountain directly hit Eeshoo, but it only managed to shatter some kind of barrier. At the same time, a pendant that was on the latter's chest cracked.
Of course, it was only to be expected that someone of a status like Eeshoo had a life-saving artifact to protect him. However, the transformed Abyss creature didn't stop despite seeing its attack in vain.
It quickly extended both its large arms towards Eeshoo. It managed to grab the latter's thighs, then slowly clenched its hands. Under the immense power of the giant, the barrier that enveloped Eeshoo's body was rapidly on the verge of collapse.
"Eeshoo!!" shouted Jinkan anxiously.
CRACKK!!! The pendant finally completely shattered, leaving the Nephilim progidy unprotected.
At the critical moment, Jinkan let out a loud shout. Hundreds of metal golems rushed towards the transformed Abyss creature. However, the next thing she did was the one that suprised the others the most.
"Launch the transport! Leave immediately!"
The metal golems were doing their job of distracting the Abyss creature from hurting Eeshoo, but it immediately shifted its attention altogether when it perceived the tremor caused by the transport vessel.
"Leaving?... no one leaves!!"
Without the slightest hesitation, the Abyss creature threw Eeshoo aside like trash and immediately dashed towards the center of the base where the transport vessel was. Seeing this, Jinkan quickly steered the golden vessel in the direction where Eeshoo was thrown.
After bringing the injured Eeshoo to the vessel, Jinkan said, "We should leave now while it takes the bait!"
Such a decision made by Jinkan brought a frown to the Nephilim prodigy's face.
"You really shouldn't have done that!"
It would only take a dozen seconds or so for the Abyss creature to break through the hundred metal golems and arrive in front of the dark construct. Unfortunatly both Eeshoo and Zach were currently wounded and unable to chase it in time.
"Incoming!" shouted a female acolyte standing infront of the construct.

A dozen stood in between the Abyss creature and the dark construct, led by a red-haired acolyte – Annara. Sensing the power that the approaching figure gave off, she quickly regretted the decision she had made.
Standing next to her, The usually talkative Gerri the Violet flame was also completely silent.
At that moment, Annara realized that nothing could stop it.
"We can't win, fighting that thing!"
She was just about to activate her suit's teleportation function, when suddenly shes saw bright light shining on the third floor building near.
A second later, a figure appeared in front of her. Annara's eyes widened when she saw the figure's familiar face.
"Y-you!?! What took you so long?"
The figure was none other than Emery who was already on his Twilight transformation
Emery did not answer Annara's question as his gaze was fixed on the approaching giant who had just finished cleaning up all the metal golems.
Emery whisper
"Alright let's do this"
Suddenly the plant creature on his arm shone, rapidly spreading out and covering his entire body like a suit of armor.
[Plant Mastery - Fusion]
In an instant, Emery turned into a human in plant armor not much smaller than the approaching figure– brown roots with golden glows visible in various parts. The armor provided tremendous strength to every single muscle fiber of his.
[Battle power has increased exponentially]

At the same time Emery finished his transformation, the Abyss creature finally arrived. It threw a fist at him, which he dodge and retaliate with a few counter punches,
Baaam!! Bamm!!Bamm!
The last smash, hitting the Abyss creature down, crashed to the ground.
