Chapter 208 - Sister And Brother
Evan realized that the monster wouldn't stop chasing him, and the crocodile was determined to kill them both. So Evan realized that he would have to deal with them himself.
He had to sacrifice several years of his life, but he got an unusually powerful weapon, and now he could deal with his enemies.
After Evan had activated the seventh demon's sigil, Prince Seere, a saturated, dark red energy appeared around him.
A second later, a white spear appeared in his hands, which he instantly swung toward the monster.
Whoosh.
The shock wave from the swing of the spear instantly reached the monster. It could not react to such a powerful and fast attack. The monster's left paw was destroyed, as were several houses in the village behind it. The stone dome cracked and crumbled into a multitude of debris. Evan could get out of the stone cage if he wanted to, but now he would kill those two.
"Bitch, I had to waste a few years of my life, you could have just let me go, but now you'll have to run away," Evan muttered angrily and swung his spear toward the crocodile.
Evan had destroyed part of the village and killed several people with his previous attack, but he wasn't too worried about that. If he had to, he would leave no stone unturned here.
The crocodile did not dodge this attack. Many stone pillars appeared in front of it, the beast thought it could defend itself, but that was a grave mistake.
Bam. Bam. Bam.
The shockwave quickly destroyed all the pillars and severed the crocodile's front paw. The weapon Evan was now using was strong enough to wound most monsters and beasts that had not yet reached the second rank.
The monster and the crocodile were seriously wounded, but neither of them was going to back down. Crocodile used its second skill, as he was a twice evolved beast.
Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.
Suddenly the ground shook, and torrents of water burst from beneath it. They were dense enough to cause Evan a severe wound with one touch. He had to try either to avoid them or just destroy them.
Whoosh.
With an indifferent face, Evan swung his spear once more and cut through two such streams. Now he was far superior to his opponent.
Evan lunged toward the beast, passing and destroying the streams of water the beast was creating. Evan's strength was multiplied thanks to the spear, but his defense was at the same level. He had to act carefully and attack only at the right moments.
While Evan fought the crocodile, the monster did not standstill. With one attack, Evan stripped it of a limb, but the monster had a way to recover quickly. Right at the battlefield, there was a veritable warehouse of delicacies.
The monster headed into the village and began killing and devouring its inhabitants. Given its size and speed, during the time Evan fought the beast, the monster could eat about 20 people.
The villagers fled in terror, none of them imagining that something like this could suddenly happen.
"It can't be... why did that happen?..." Some man murmured, watching as the monster ate his wife in front of him.
Seconds later, his head flew off his shoulders, and he suffered the same fate. It was the fate of ordinary people, faced with the hungry and wounded monster. They had neither the strength nor the ability to cope with this catastrophe.
Some people took refuge in their homes, for such an eventuality, they had underground shelters to hide. They hoped it would save their lives, but they underestimated the power of the monster.
Crack.
The monster easily tracked them, it could feel them trembling with fear. The monster swung its claws and destroyed several buildings. People's faces froze in terror, and that was the end of their lives.
"Glen, run!" Shouted the girl with black hair, taking her little brother by the hand. She was as frightened as everyone else by what was happening, but she had to care for her brother.
"Sister, I can't go on...I have no strength left...why is everyone in such a hurry...?" Said the blond boy. Because of his age, he hadn't yet realized what was going on.
"Come on, there's not much left, our home is just around the corner," The girl said, trying to look calm. She pointed to a house that was only ten meters away from them.
She wanted to take shelter there with her brother. The girl hoped that soon the monster would be gone away.
<Please, please don't look this way.>
Unfortunately, the girl's pleas were not heard. The monster chose them as its next target. He rushed towards them, the girl already thought it was the end, but suddenly, there was a furious roar that stopped the monster.
The next moment a shockwave passed through the entire village and destroyed several buildings, including the girl's house.
Bam.
The massive carcass of the crocodile collapsed on the village, crushing several residents beneath it. The bleeding beast let out its last breath.
Whoosh.
The next moment a tall young man in a black cloak entered the village. He walked slowly toward the monster.
"You're the next, come here, I am going to rip you to shreds!" Evan said harshly, pointing his spear at the monster.
Thanks to the inhabitants he ate, the monster had fully recovered, even growing back the paw Evan had destroyed. It was on full alert.
Evan's presence saved the girl and her brother from death, but he'd destroyed her hiding place at the same time. The girl didn't know what to do.
"Gotta...run...." She muttered and tried to get away from the battlefield, but...
<What...? Why isn't my body moving...?
She didn't understand what was going on. She was a simple person and had been through some powerful stresses in the last few minutes. Now she was so badly frightened she could not even move. Her body was not listening to her mind.
Bam.
The monster attacked Evan. He raised his spear sharply, and another shockwave destroyed the house to the girl's right. If she had taken a single step in that direction, she would have been killed like the rest of the inhabitants.
The monster managed to dodge the attack and visibly accelerated itself.
<What? Why had you become so fast? Hadn't you been fighting at full strength before?> Evan was surprised. He could barely keep up with his opponent's movements. Moreover, the monster easily dodged Evan's every attack.
Whoosh.
The monster's claws of fire almost hit Evan, but he was able to dodge at the last moment. The flames swept right in front of Evan's eyes.
"All right, time to call it a day," proclaimed Evan and bit his finger until it bled.
A crimson drop of blood fell on the snow-white spear, and some changes began to happen to it. The weapon glowed, turned scarlet, and spun violently. It was no longer like a spear but an actual drill capable of piercing anything. After this attack, the demon weapon would use up all its energy and disappear.
Whoosh.
Evan threw the spear as hard as he could at the monster. It pierced it instantly. The power of this attack was so great that about a third of the village was destroyed, and dozens of people were killed.
Half of the monster's body was destroyed, and even part of its core was visible. It was on the verge of death.
Crack.
Evan cast the "Ball Lightning" and headed toward the monster, at the same moment, the girl's younger brother began to cry.
"Sister, let's go home..."
The girl looked at her little brother and tried to move, but suddenly the boy disappeared.
"No..." Mumbled the girl watching the monster kill her little brother.
That's when the monster's aura began to increase strangely. Evan became alert he knew what was happening now, "Fuck, is this the exact moment the special evolution has happened?!"
