Using all three of my Skills too, I launched my Spikes and Claws alongside all the blades that were summoned.

>SWOOOOOSHHHHH<

Everything descended in a flash, countering all the spikes and attacks the monsters threw at me, and even overpowering them.

Within a few moments, the endless rain of hundreds of bladed and sharp objects of devastation decimated the targets.

“GYARGKHHHH!!!” They screeched in their final moments.

My objects of contempt turned into mincemeat as a very nice puddle of blood flowed on the ground after they fell one after the other.

In no time, the monsters which gave me difficulty became vanquished.

“I… win!” A tired smile appeared on my face as I rapidly descended from the air.

>FTWIP<

My legs reached the ground filled with the blood of Demons. The Demon cores glistened in the pool, making it appear beautiful to the sight.

“A wonderful sight of carnage!” I muttered, without realizing.

As I tiredly returned to the ground, a lot of level-up panels appeared in my line of sight, but I ignored them.

Now isn’t the time for such things…

“Haa, looks like I really did it, uh? I beat a thousand Demons myself!” I laughed indiscriminately.

“Hehehehahahahahakuahahahaha” I raised my voice, laughing amid the evaporating sea of blood.

I threw away my sense of caution and merely enjoyed the current state that everything was in.

My body throbbed, savoring the pleasures of victory. I felt like collapsing. I was so tired that I felt like I could sleep for a week.

“I can rest now, right? After all… I’m done with the Demons, right?” I convinced myself since a portion of my inner consciousness still felt cautious._.

Still mumbling and barely standing, I staggered, nearly falling on my back.

“We won… right?”

My eyes slowly closed, and I felt a wave of relief wash through me. Was it finally over? After the entire ordeal experienced in the building. The Demons, the constant fear of being killed, and the growth I always expected at the end of each battle.

There was only one answer to that question.

“Don’t bullshit me… how can this be over just yet?” A grin formed on my face.

>BOOOOOOOMMMMM!<

A loud explosion erupted, causing me to brace myself in response.

The ground began to cave in, nearly reaching where I stood. As the cracks expanded, I jumped back, distancing myself from the strange phenomena.

“Tch! I knew it!” My thoughts rang.

There was no way it could be over with just that.

>SHUUUUUUUUUU<

A low, yet ominous sound permeated the environment as dust filled everywhere due to the sudden quake that occurred.

“What the hell ha-!”

I stopped mid-sentence as I saw a massive hole drilled into the ground.

“T-this is…” I gasped, focusing my senses on the wide tunnel underneath the ground,

Cold sweat appeared on my face upon sensing a strange presence beyond the boundary of the ground.

There was a devastating aura proceeding from beyond the tunnel, making me shiver in response. I felt cold and numb all over.

Most likely, the boss resided within that place. However, the overwhelming pressure of the Boss Monster was not the only thing I felt from the hole.

My heightened senses picked up several presences at the other end of the tunnel, no, some were already making their way to me.

GBAM! GBAM! GBAM!

Heavy thuds of footsteps made the ground shake further.

Judging by the smell and sound they emited, these Demons approaching were different from the ones I just executed.

“They’re larger than the (Adults), making them more dangerous too…”

Here they come!

In an instant, several of them jumped out of the massive tunnel, revealing themselves to me.

I nearly shook in fear upon seeing them.

Having grey bodies, these Demons possessed large spikes all around them, with extremely large ones on their shoulder and head.

They had large blades located on each of their elbows, knees, and hand.

With devilish grins and a bloodthirsty appearance, they glared at me.

Without realizing it, I unconsciously called forth their Status Information.

[End Of Information]

“N-no… no way!” My eyes bulged and the entirety of my body trembled in despair.

A new breed of the Hell Kobold Spawn Demon… a Guardian?!

Looking at the stats alone, a single one far outstripped anything I have faced so far. The gap was just too much!

But, that was not the worst part.

“No… Status condition…?!”

With such a high HP, having no debuff holding them back… I would have to do the entire work and kill these monsters.

“Shit! Shit! Shit!”

Once again, I got too conceited. Let’s just hope I survive this too.

The Demons appearing before me were considerably fewer than the last wave, being only twelve.

I pushed aside the thoughts of fear and hopelessness, ignoring the trembling sensation my body gave. Focusing my mind on only one thing, I charged forward with my blade in hand.

Crimson energy glowed through the sword, generating an aura around myself and the weapon.

“Let’s do this, you overgrown dogs!” I grinned nervously.

“Gurrruuuuu!!!” The Guardians glared, rushing toward me with their quick bodies.

Despite their size, they were much faster than the soldiers.

In an instant, they closed the gap between us. Half of them launched their fists toward me simultaneously.

“I might die if I receive all of that!”

Pressing my feet to the ground, I pumped more power to them and sped across the room, instantly evading their blow.

With no time to relax, I rushed back, taking my fighting pose and slicing through one of the Guardian’s legs.

“Guarhhh!!!” It screamed in pain as it wobbled, upon losing balance.

Using the window of opportunity, I leaped forward and spun in the air, cleanly tearing off its head.

>WHOOSH!<

I landed on the ground and used the momentum to charge toward the rest.

They did not appear fazed, and instead, took deep breaths for some reason. I ignored whatever they did and continued lunging forth. I only had to be faster!

Cleanly cutting my way through a few, I managed to kill off five of them before their assault finally came.

“ROARGHHHHHHH!!!” They roared at me.

Sonic booms caused the entire floor to tremble as I was bombarded with sound waves from multiple directions.

“Gik-Gahhhhhh!!!” I felt like screaming to the top of my lungs as the pressure grated my bones and my whole felt like it was being tightly crushed by the echoes generated by the Guardians.

Blood gushed out of my ears, nose, and eyes as I suffered in anguish.

I wondered when the pain would end as I stood in the midst of the invisible wall, taking severe damage from their assault on me.

“A-ahhhhhhh!!!”

Finally, their skill duration ended, and the Demons closed their mouth.

Of course, I felt like shit and was on the verge of collapsing. But, I knew that doing this would only guarantee my death as the Guardians would seize that moment of weakness and pounce on me.

Therefore, there was only one thing left to do!

Gripping my sword tightly, I activated the crimson aura within it, and whole my entire body ached and screamed at me to stop, I ignored them.

“Rarghhhhh!!!” I screamed, pushing my legs beyond as I swung my blade to the neck of a Guardian and sliced its head off.

[You Have Leveled Up]

My wounds instantly healed, making me immensely grateful for that single notification.

Feeling much better, even though I was mentally strained by the countless hours of fighting, I decided to end things quickly.

“Let us continue… you imbeciles! I’ll make sure to pay you back well!”
