My Yandere Wives are Transcendents-Chapter 187: I will protect you with my life
Alexander's POV
Dungeon Walkers were monstrous entities that existed between dungeons. They were incredibly powerful, and their strength was not limited by the rank of the dungeon they were in. This was because they were not bound by the same rules as other dungeon creatures.
In the past history of Terra, only a handful of Dungeon Walkers had ever appeared. Of those, only one had ever been killed. This was over 1000 years ago, and most people had forgotten about them.
The appearance of Dungeon Walkers was a rare event, even in the game. After the appearance of the Hero, only two Dungeon Walkers had appeared in dungeons.
Anyhow, as everyone knows hero must go through shit, right?
And thus, it appeared to me to act as a stepping stone.
'Hehehe' I chuckled inwardly thinking how 'That bastard' blew off and dead, 'heheh' he was out of the question, I had to step up acting.
After Asher Eli was thrown off by the Dungeon Walker.
The Dungeon Walker's enraged roar echoed through the chamber, its booming voice reverberating off the stone walls.
"You damn ants!" it snarled, its eyes burning with fury,
"How dare you try to scheme against me? I am the lord of this dungeon!!"
The Dungeon Walker's attack was so sudden and unexpected that the students were caught completely off guard. They stood frozen in fear, their minds unable to process what was happening.
'We are nothing more than toys to the Dungeon Walker' I thought.
I shouted in furious defiance, "How dare you kill my friend?" With that war cry, I launched myself at the Dungeon Walker....for my fellow 'friend'.
"Oh?" the Dungeon Walker chuckled, its amusement laced with danger. It lunged forward, its cadet blue gauntlets gleaming menacingly.
Just as the blow was about to land, I ducked beneath the Dungeon Walker's massive arms, narrowly avoiding the crushing impact. With a swift twist, I delivered a counterattack, my chipped blade slicing across the Dungeon Walker's biceps.
'chuck'
'drip'
A thin line of black blood trickled down the Dungeon Walker's arm as it recoiled in surprise. It stared at the wound, its eyes burning with fury.
"You are really a Hero...ah"
"Yes, I am the sole Hero destined to bring an end to your reign of terror" I declared, my voice dripping with confidence.
As the Dungeon Walker lunged at me, I effortlessly parried its attack, my movements as fluid and graceful as a dancer's.
"Just like in the game," I murmured under my breath, "crouch down... then... this time, turn, twist left, and... cut!"
'cchckkk'
With a swift flick of my wrist, I delivered a shallow cut across the Dungeon Walker's biceps. The creature recoiled in surprise, its black blood trickling down its arm.
"Huh?" it exclaimed, its massive form momentarily frozen in confusion.
"How did you...?"
The Dungeon Walker's confusion was palpable.
It couldn't understand how a mere human could dodge and counterattack its attacks with such ease. 'Could this be a greater threat than the previous hero?' it wondered, about the green-haired hero that escaped pathetically.
'I guess, the attack patterns are the same as in the game' I thought to myself, analyzing the Dungeon Walker's movements.
Seizing the opportunity presented by its momentary lapse in concentration, I turned to address the shocked and bewildered students who had gathered to witness the 'Rise of Hero'.
"Ms. Alysia, take Marie and hide!" My voice snapped out, cutting through their fear.
Alysia looked at me with confusion, her eyes darting around the room as if saying, 'Where?'.
Veins popped out on my forehead as I struggled to maintain my composure.
I am freaking saved you from falling to the dark side....well, I mean I am not.
However, according to the plot,
Her friend, Tiana would be eaten by the Dungeon Walker.
Hero (me) arrived very late and was able to defeat the monster but was unable to save
Tiana.
At that moment, something dark and twisted awakened within Alysia becoming a Cruel puppeteer, A villainous character.
However, now it's different.
It should have been me who saved Tiana to gain Alysia's trust but.....whatever now 'that guy' was out of the equation.
"AAA!"
With a deafening roar, the Dungeon Walker lifted its massive arms and slammed them together, aiming to crush me beneath its immense strength.
As the colossal fists hurtled towards me, I closed my eyes and uttered,
/By the Grace of God, Give me the will to face this wretched being....IGNITE/
In that instant, my body erupted with a blinding flash of holy light. The searing flames surged outwards, creating an impenetrable barrier around me.
'Boom'
The Dungeon Walker's fists slammed into the wall of fire, but they were unable to penetrate its radiant power.
"GRRRR!" The enraged Dungeon Walker gritted its teeth as it prepared to deliver another crushing blow.
But before it could move, a barrage of ice spears pierced the air, hurtling towards the monstrous creature.
/Ice spear/
/Haste/
As Pearl unleashed a volley of ice spears at the Dungeon Walker, Eva gracefully leapt from one spear to the other, her movements as fluid as a dancer's. With each step, she drew closer to the monstrous creature, her blade poised to strike.
However,
'showshh'
The Dungeon Walker's snort was like a hurricane, its immense force scattering the ice spears and sending Eva tumbling through the air.
"You aren't worth my time" The monster sneered as it slammed its massive fist into my firewall.
"How dare you say that, you wretched creature?" I shouted in defiance to support them.
I had been gathering my energy for this moment.
"AAA!!"
With a deafening roar, the Dungeon Walker lunged forward, its massive fists poised to crush you.
As the monster drew closer, I deactivated the firewall, creating a narrow opening for my counterattack.
I moved my body with the fluidity of water.
'turn left, then crouch down.....then turn right and Hit'
"chuckk"
I thrust your sword forward, my blade imbued with holy energy.
The sword pierced the gap in the monster's helmet, its radiant light shining into the depths of its ugly face.
/Divine Tear/
A bright light shone as hot and Holy mana poured inside the helmet where its ugly face hid.
"AARRRR!!"
'Crack, Crack'
The Dungeon Walker's cry of agony echoed through the chamber as its helmet cracked and shattered.
The others stood frozen in shock, their eyes wide with horror.
As the dust settled, I could see the creature's true face. It was a sight that would haunt everyone's dreams for years to come.
The Dungeon Walker had no eyes, nose, or mouth. Its face was a mass of raw, exposed muscle, with veins pulsing beneath the surface. Its eyeballs hung from their sockets, their milky white lenses staring vacantly into space.
'The sight was both terrifying and really disgusting to see this again' I muttered as I backed off after my chipped sword stuck on its ugly face and, freewebnσvel.cѳm
"Thank you Pearl and Eva" I said heartfully.
"....You don't even need our help first" Pearl said in a dejected tone.
"Yeah" Eva seconded it with a somewhat blank and furious tone.
"No, I really needed a distraction in order to prepare for my spell" I said heartfully.
They smiled warmly for heartfelt thanks.
"I don't how much longer I could hold but I need your help guys" I said in helplessness and determination.
Oliver, stepped forward, his face etched with determination. "I will support you, Alexander....We avenge my friend. We will defeat this creature together."
Arlyne nodded in agreement, "Don't worry, We've got your back" with little fear in her eyes as thought of Eli was killed within a second.
"...." Theo reluctantly nodded his head.
I turned to look at Amber but she had a knowing smile.
'Thank god they totally forget about that guy' I muttered.
Then focused looked at twins that....I wanted to fuck really but now wasn't their arc.
"Saintesses please support us"
They took a moment to nod their head in unison, their movements perfectly synchronized.
'Truly, twins... or more like triplets' I thought to myself. But for now, I had to focus on the battle at hand.
Alysia had already taken Marie's hand and positioned herself behind the others. As for Rize...
"Forget about her" Eva spat, her eyes burning with anger as she watched Rize frantically trying to break through the barrier where the hole Eli broke through by the Monster.
"Okay" I nodded, 'Well, I don't need that meat-eating bitch anyway'.
//Banner of Valor//
"What the...?"
"Oh..I My..speed increased exponentially!!"
"My illusion solidified!!"
"....My holy Power increased" As muttered before glancing at the two Saintesses.
The small white flag with a small black circle hovered between their hands, its radiant light filling the chamber.
I could feel the power coursing through my veins, amplifying my own holy energy.
'It seems they are more useful than Luna' I noted though remembering her made me puke.
"hahaha hahaha"
As the chilling laughter echoed through the chamber.
Everyone turned to look at the Dungeon Walker. The creature had finally removed the broken sword from its face, revealing a visage that was even more horrifying than before.
'vaaa..it turned even uglier' When I saw its cheeks were torn and mangled, the muscle fibers exposed to the air.
"You see, I never thought anyone would be able to destroy my chains"
Its voice was now even more hoarse and stoic.
'Chains? What it was talking about? Maybe there are some differences in reality from the game just like other monsters' I wondered about it.
"I wonder what would my fat--"
I was waiting to get more info but when an arsenic-haired girl appeared in front of the monster in a second and
/100 slashes/
As she swung her slim sword 1 time....no, no, no it should be 100 but I only saw 1.
'No way' I looked disbelieved when I saw 100 cuts on Dungeon Walker's bare black body.
"Our highness buffs are very strong" Oliver said proudly he also moved forward.
"..." Theo also went along with Oliver.
'Really?' I turned to look at the twins with disbelieving eyes. It was hard to believe that they were so powerful, yet Luna who was the same age as them had been unable to create a strong barrier.
I couldn't help but sigh, thinking about how things might have been different if I had gone to the Chola kingdom instead.
'But there was no point in dwelling on the past' I had to focus on the present.
"Alex?" Amber snapped me out of my thoughts and smiled warmly.
"Hmm?'
"Here" Amber smiled warmly as she offered a sword.
"huh? No, I don't...." Seeing a new sword, I pretend not to accept it though I saved a new one in my inventory.
"Alex?" Amber pouted.
Seeing her pouting expression, I 'blushed' slightly and accepted it with great honour.
Like kneeling one leg down and,
"I will protect you with my life" I said in the most checky line.
And it definitely worked on Amber as her lips curled and her face blushed a little.
'ssshhhhiinnnggg'
As I unsheathed the white sword, I couldn't help but be struck by its beauty.
The blade was gleaming and polished, and the hilt was inlaid with intricate designs.
I turned to Amber and smiled. "It's beautiful.....Just like the owner."
Amber's cheeks turned a rosy hue.
'Wait a second, Why hasn't anyone backed off?' Now that I think about why the hell that monster made its move, Frowning I looked at the monster....
'Shit!'
