Vs. Flaming Bulls (II)

Chapter 8: Vs. Flaming Bulls (II)

Feeling the changes in his body, Nova felt extremely ecstatic, as if he had just showered after a week of being covered in mud.

The feeling made him unconsciously have a slight smile, with his energies renewed, Nova ran towards his enemy and the Bull towards him.

Both of them were at a great speed, but now Nova was considerably faster than before, both of them managing to arrive in front of the other in record time.

Nova used the edge of his sword again, making a horizontal slash in the same manner as when he cut the two horns.

This was similar, Nova tried to cut the two horns of the Bull that was coming towards him with great rancor.

But even with his enhanced stats, the clash was not what he expected.

*BOOM*

The two attacks, the Bull's horns, and Nova's slash collided, leaving the offenses in a stalemate.

This surprised both parties, both Nova and the Toro.

'I improved my stats,' Nova thought. 'And yet I can't cut off his horns, why is the difference so great?'

He had never predicted that the difference in strength and endurance of the two Bulls would be so outrageous, and his confidence, which was at its highest epitome point, had collided with the great reality.

He was still extremely weak.

So weak that a Level 1 Beast can take him on, even defeat him if he is not careful.

On the other hand, the Flaming Bull was surprised that his attack did not tear or split the sword.

The first Flaming Bull was known to be the leader of this area, that's why it was so powerful the difference from other beasts, what Nova didn't know, is that this was a Dominant Beast.

Not only did this make this his terrain, but he made it his Dominion, it reached greater powers.

*Dry metallic sound*

Using their strength, the two tried to break the stalemate, but they couldn't in any way.

The Flaming Bull has more physical strength, but it still wasn't enough, as with the heavy body and just at the signature sword, it couldn't move much more than a few inches from Nova.

By this time, Nova was planning new ways to deal with this threat, but his planning time was quickly over.

Taking a deep breath and filling his lungs with air, he created a fireball by opening his mouth.

The fireball, the size of a basketball, was launched and impacted against Nova, but he felt nothing, just a slight breeze.

Still deadlocked in strength, the fireballs caused the Bull's strength to concentrate on launching his attacks. You must hold Nova's sword steady.

'As expected... They are beasts, if anything it has a modicum of intelligence' Smiling inwardly, Nova used all his strength.

Veins bulged from the extreme strength he was using, even under all that mass and fat.

Under such force, Nova used all that strength and his weight forward, knocking the Bull off balance who could only retreat, while with such force, his horns flew off.

With the Bull disoriented, Nova took the opportunity to launch a slash at the highest speed he could muster, which cut off the Bull's right front kick.

*Fall down*.

This one could only fall to the ground, hurt, and without any chance to defend himself.

"Cute," Nova commented with a smile. "Time for you to die slowly, you bastard."

Sticking the sword into his back, he slowly buried it until it was deeply buried; even so, the Bull was still breathing, though the fire around him began to dissipate.

Exaggeratedly lifting his foot, Nova stomped it with all his might, again, and again, and again, and again, and again...

- Several minutes later -.

"He gasped, he gasped, he's dead at last, that bastard," Nova grinned between gasps and rapid breaths.

It was enough all his energy stomping the Bull as much as possible, even his foot was covered with blood.

And the Bull's head was unrecognizable, completely crushed and bruised.

The reason he trampled the Bull? Impulsive and he was extremely angry, getting carried away by his unstable emotions as usual.

Pulling the sword from his back, Nova wiped and shook off the fresh blood still on his blade, at the same time reading the system messages.

[The Player: Nova Leiden, you have just killed a level 1 Dominant beast named Flaming Bull....

Level up...

Congratulations to the Player, he is now Level 4]

As he read the text, the expression on his face turned to one of compression.

"I see," he continued. "That's why it was so different from the previous one, that Flaming Bull was a dominant... That didn't appear in the game."

Thinking carefully, Nova felt a little confused and at the same time relieved.

He realized that it wasn't exactly the world of Legends Genesis, but there were several differences, only today he encountered a big difference.

Not only did this terrain become a Beast domain, but there were two of these, making combat three or even five times more difficult than in the original game.

And if the world is different, that will be very good for Nova, after all, what is going to happen in the future, if it was the original, it would be almost impossible to survive.

Now, he had confirmed that this world was similar to the game, but it was not a copy, there were differences.

And if the difficulty was not constantly raised like this, he would have a better chance of surviving in the future and living well.

He couldn't hold back the smile as he imagined a different future and where he would be happy.

Shaking his head, he pushed those fanciful thoughts away and remembered why he had come here.

Looking at the nearby chest, he was tempted to go there immediately, but first to make a few things clear....
