Chapter 12: Blonde Threads of Destiny

General POV

The moment he finished the chant, the entire floor turned crimson as magic poured out of his body in waves. All his upper clothes were blown off, revealing his perfectly sculpted body to the world.

If one looked closely at his form, crimson-black energy covered his entire body. A few strands of his golden hair turned scarlet, and most noticeable was his left eye, which turned crimson with black flames emanating from it. This was his magic:

[Surtur]

-Enchantment

-Destruction property

-[Chant]: "I am the beginning of the end."

MC POV

'So this is [Surtur], huh? I must say, this is really strong. If I didn't have enough spiritual power, I would have gone insane and tried to destroy everything.'

'Though I never wanna go through that torture of awakening again.'

"All right, monkey... Let's have a good fight."

The next moment, I was in front of the silverback.

"TAKE THIS, BASTARD... DESTRUCTION FIST!"

"BAM!!!"

The fist directly hit the chest of the silverback, and it was sent flying.

The move 'Destruction Fist' was created by utilizing the ability 'enchantment,' where I enchant the attribute 'destruction' onto my fist.

The silverback suddenly did a backflip and dug its hand into the floor to stop the momentum. All the fur on its chest was vaporized.

I didn't give it time to recover and went on full throttle with a barrage of attacks. But slowly, the monster began to gain an advantage over me. It looked at me with a ferocious grin.

'This is no ordinary monster... The look in its eyes. It's not the eyes of a mindless monster. I had my doubts before, but now I am sure... This is an 'enhanced species' .'

In the dungeon, some peculiar monsters are occasionally born. They not only hunt adventurers but also ruthlessly target their compatriots. All this is due to the characteristics of the "enhanced species," enabling them to devour magic stones to strengthen themselves limitlessly.

The same principle applies to their targeting of both compatriots and adventurers. Killing adventurers is not an end but a process, driven by their possession of these magic stones.

'I guess its target is my magic stone...THIS BASTARD DARE EYE MY STONES....UNFORGIVABLE!!!!!'

The intense hand to hand battle continued for more than 15 minutes. I ended up with more injuries than the monkey afterall the physique of monster couldn't be compared to that of humans.

'FUCK!!!my even though I have nearly fifty percent magic power left, my mental strength is slowly weakening and it would be fully consumed within 5 minutes.'

Suddenly I got hit on my jaw with a powerful punch before I could escape it caught me by my leg with a menacing grin and slammed me on the floor with all its strength.

"AAAAHHHHH"I screamed as I felt intense pain.Before It could hit me again. I enchanted my legs with destruction and kicked hard on its chest and broke away from from its grip.

'Huh huh huh....Is this the end??? Am I gonna die here?'

General POV

In the labyrinth city of Orario, the massive western city wall is bathed in the hues of dusk, blending with the fiery red of the sky.

As time passed, the elegantly radiant moon became veiled by a layer of thin clouds, silently taking its place at the center of the dark curtain. A scattering of fine clouds obscured a few stars in the night sky.

The magic stone lamps lining both sides of the street illuminated, casting their glow, while entertainment venues such as taverns and hotels buzzed with activity. Its truly a city that never sleeps.

------------Twilight Manor------------

Loki sat alone in a vast council room at the top of the tower. Typically, high-ranking family members would engage in discussions or hold meetings in this space. However, due to their current participation in the "expedition," the room remained empty.

She narrowed her eyes, gazing out the window in the direction of the Tower of Babel.

"The kid hasn't returned at this time. Has something happened?"

Loki never considered the possibility of her child sacrificing their life, showcasing her profound trust and confidence in them.

"Could there be some sort of 'abnormal situation' on the first day? That would be exceptionally bad luck."

"If we factor in the time, the children from the 'Expedition' should be returning, right?"

Even gods cannot penetrate the veil of the unknown. Yet, Loki's intuition proved accurate this time. Unbeknownst to her, the unfortunate Flon had encountered trouble on the very first expedition, and it was the perilous kind that claimed lives.

------------Dungeon Floor 5-----------

 General POV

In the narrow passages of the fifth floor, an adventurer and a monster engaged in a battle to the death. This confrontation resembled more of a gladiatorial duel in an ancient arena than a typical skirmish between an adventurer and a monster.

The clash of blood against blood, fist against fist, muscle against muscle, was primal and brutal.

However, the young man now found himself at his limits. He stood in the center of the battlefield, head bowed as if resigned to his impending death. The ferocious silverback roared in anger, swiftly approaching the audacious young man who dared to challenge it. In an instant, it struck him on the head.

Just before the punch could connect, the young man skillfully caught it with his left hand. The force of the potent blow cracked the dungeon floor beneath him. A subtle smile appeared on his face as he kept his head down. A soft male voice, akin to a whisper, echoed throughout the battlefield.

"It seems that both luck and time are on my side. Monkey, if you had started the battle a little earlier, you might have won, but now..."

The crimson aura surrounding him, which had weakened over time, suddenly radiated with a brilliance surpassing anything seen before, illuminating the battlefield.

 MC POV

Just when I thought I was gonna bite the dust, my mental power suddenly skyrocketed-all thanks to my unique skill:

 [Reader]:

- Strengthen mental power

- Doubles the effect in the dark

- Immunity to mental pollution

'This is my strongest state, but I can only maintain [Surtur] for another 2 minutes.'

'Now that my mental power has doubled, I could try some of the new moves I've thought of.'

I kicked the monkey in its chest.

"ROOOOAAAARR!"

Without giving it time to recover, I unleashed a barrage of punches.

Then, outta nowhere, I kicked the monkey into the air. In a flash, I was right up there with it.

I expanded my aura to 1 meter around me, enchanting even the air with destruction. Then, I delivered a series of punches to the monkey.

"ASA KUJAKU!!!!" (A/n: Morning peacock of Might Guy)

The monkey was sent flying as its body burned from my destruction magic.

'Time to end this.'

I then focused all my magic into my right arm. My entire arm turned black, with crimson flames circling around it.

The monkey instantly sensed the danger from my right arm. It roared in fury and dug its huge hand into the dungeon floor, taking a large chunk of soil and rocks, and hurled it towards me.

I jumped from one rock to another, fully tightening my fist. (A/n: Insert DBS Theme song)

In an instant, I reached near the monkey.

'Goodbye, monkey... It's been a fun fight.'

"UNIIIIIIIIITEEEEED STATES OOFF SMAAAAAAAAAASHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!"

The entire magic in my right hand raged on to the silverback, enveloping it as a whole and totally destroying its entire existence, leaving behind nothing but ashes.

'Finally... It's over,' I thought as I gasped for breath.

Suddenly, the veins in my right hand burst, and blood splattered throughout. This was followed by my other hand and legs as I fell down on my back.

'Damn it!!! It seems my body can't handle too much enchantment of destruction.'

'Looks like I am about to die.... Is this my blood? It's so red.'

'...'

'FUCK!!!! WHY DO I SOUND LIKE THAT PERVERTED BOOB DRAGON?' I thought as I spewed out some blood from my mouth.

'I can feel my consciousness slowly fading... Though my time in this world was short, I totally had a blast.'

As my vision got blurrier, this beautiful, emotionless face popped up in front of me. Those stunning golden eyes and golden hair. In that moment, it felt like an eternity. I had only one thought before passing out,

'If I could make it through this alive... I am totally gonna join the blonde girls fan club.'

Hey guys! Thanks for reading the chapter. The original fanfiction was a harem novel, but I'll be focusing only on one heroine, and that will be Ais. I'll be highlighting their chemistry and character development (I have some plans for Bell #Evil Smirk#). Have a good day! Cheers!!
