Rampage!

The sound of wind that calmly echoes in his ears brings peace to this forsaken land. The ripples in the sand that the wind makes, causes tension in his hate-filled eyes.

As he was slowly raising his right arm that held the sword, the foe in his sight entered a mad dash towards him while neighing in an aggrieved sound.

It was fast, but wasn't fast enough. Unlike the Great Imp that he fought before, this reddish brown horse seemed to be a tier lower than it.

The mad horse entered his range of attack but he instinctively dodged to side. Alex, whose state of mind was in a mess, only wants to destroy this beast in front of him.

He wanted to chop this creature into pieces just so he could prove that no matter the strength or tier of his opponent, he would be able to kill them.

Contrary to his expectation or his will, his body tumbled to dodge the rampaging dash of the horse.

Just as he was wondering why his body dodged, his right arm thrusted and pierced the sword into its thigh.

The horse was clearly in pain, as it neighed loudly and immediate ran a few meters away from him.

Its previous black eyes was now turning into the shade of red. Its abdomen was lighting up in a color akin to a lava as it bulged slightly while its eyes looked at him in anger.

'An elemental attack? Dodge!'

It was already too late for him to dodge as the attack hurled towards him in a big area. Although his body was moved only by instinct and was able to detect the danger of that attack, it still wouldn't be able to dodge because of his physique.

Therefore the only thing that his body could do was to let his backside, or rather, let the cape take the brunt of the attack.

The cape was given to him as the reward for winning the tournament at the village. It was able to negate some fire damage and protects the wearer from the surrounding heat.

The attack landed on his back and he was sent flying. Seeing that its attack landed on the human, it snorted disdainfully at Alex. Thinking that he was only a weak human.

His eyes full of hatred was glaring at the horse that disdained him. Its act simply ignited the rage that was boiling in him when he was hit by its attack. Then Alex shouted, "You're dead meat horsey!"

It was a wonder for Alex how his body was able to speak what was on his mind. Anyway, the thought was quickly tossed to the back of his mind.

He broke into a mad rush and in no time, he was already near the desert horse. When he was almost in range for attacking, the desert horse finally made its move.

Its eyes once again, turned into red, its abdomen was slighlty bulging and turned into the color of lava. This was a clear indication that was going to attack using the same spell again.

'Kek. Naive. You're still an animal after all.' Alex smirked when he saw its action.

It was a foolish mistake to use the same attack in a row, especially if one was fighting a human.

It was either arrogant or fool.

When the White Rhino, who was watching from afar saw the desert horse's action. It shook its head in disapproval.

"This horse is simply arrogant, sigh." it thought that the desert horse should prove to be a somewhat, worthy opponent for Alex and would force his potential.

"In the end, it only has a mind of a teen." as a King Beast, the White Rhino also experienced being a fierce beast. Back then it was very arrogant and it became a known bully in this desert.

Luckily for the White Rhino, its father, a Void Beast, heard about it being incomparbly arrogant and taught it a lesson. Then forced it to guard the oasis along with its father.

"Good old times, sigh." it once again gazed at the fight.

Before the desert horse could even launch its attack. A sword came swooshing down towards its throat, and with a splurt, blood gushed out of the gaps while the sword was embedded on it.

"Too much arrogance for a beast as strong as you, eh?" Alex calmly walked towards the desert horse and the color of his eyes was slowly receding back to its natural black color.

The desert horse was still standing proudly, even though it has a mortal injury that might take its life at any time.

It looked into the Alex's eyes and snorted. It's as if it was saying that: "Just kill me if you dare, human."

As the person being stared at by the creature, Alex knew, simply by just staring at it what it meant.

"Why wouldn't I dare to kill you? Hehe. I've survived the attack and almost killed a being a tier higher than you. I must say that you're incredibly weak compared to others."

As a fierce beast, it was already capable of understanding the language of the humans but wasn't capable of speaking it.

It tried neighing but the only sound that came out was the gurgling of blood that was accumulated in its mouth.

With its eyes filled with desperation and hate, it didn't think twice anymore.

Its abdomen was enlarging at a faster rate than when it was casting its spell.

"Oh sh*t! You crazy motherf!"

Its abdomen has already ballooned and was on a shade of orange and red. It looked like a tiny sun was being born in its very stomach.

The White Rhino, who was leisurely watching the fight was rendered aghast. When it heard Alex it legs almost moved to save him. However it quickly saw the joy in his face while shouting those words.

'BOOOOOOOM!'

A loud boom resonated across the desert as a small mushroom cloud appeared in the sky.
