The Greatest Sinner - Chapter 209
Monsters and beasts were capable of evolving, thereby becoming stronger and gaining unique abilities. But less than 1% of monsters and beasts had special evolutions. They were extremely rare and gave incredible power.
Evan had a lot of knowledge and understood that now the monster in front of him was undergoing a special evolution.
During the special evolution, the monster not only became powerful, but it also changed its type to a different one. The monster had become a completely different creature with a special ability.
The monster’s terrible wounds quickly healed, and his limbs recovered. Two long horns had grown on its head, and now it had two fiery tails. Its claws were twice as long, and the flames on them had changed their color to blue. Moreover, the monster could now spew flame from its mouth.
Rooooaaaaaaarrrr!
The monster roared furiously, and its two tails struck the ground. Flames spread in all directions from the monster, and half the village burned to the ground along with its inhabitants. No one who was close to the monster could survive, except for one single person – a black-haired girl.
She was able to survive only because she was not in the affected area of the two tails. The waves of the flame passed right beside her. You could tell that had it not been for the fear that restrained her movements, she would have died long ago.
At that moment, the girl was not worried about her life. She still didn’t realize what had just happened. Her native home had been destroyed, her acquaintances had been devoured, and her brother had been murdered. All of this happened in less than an hour, but everything was very different not long ago.
The girl just stood there, she couldn’t even utter a word. It all seemed like some kind of nightmare to her. The fire monster was like a demon from hell.
Whoosh.
Evan threw an electric shock in the monster’s direction. He didn’t want to get close to such a dangerous opponent.
The fire monster opened its mouth wide and spewed blue flames toward the “Ball Lightning.”
Boom.
There was a deafening explosion, and the monster lunged toward Evan. It was much faster, and Evan didn’t even see it move.
Evan blocked the monster’s blow but suffered severe burns. He immediately pulled a potion from the ring and drank it. The burns began to heal right before his eyes, but it was just a temporary measure.
The monster continued to attack, speeding up with every second. Evan could have barely kept up with the monster’s movements before, but now he was the outsider in their confrontation.
<Shit, how has he survived that attack? It’s impossible! It’s too fast, I can’t even see its attacks>. Thought Evan and got punched sharply in the stomach.
The fire claws dug into Evan’s flesh and pierced through the young man’s body. The monster kicked Evan, sending him flying back several meters.
Evan squirmed in pain and spat out a mouthful of blood. He was in incredible pain, having just been practically burned alive.
His spatial ring glowed, and he quickly swallowed three pills. Evan had prepared himself thoroughly before he left for Inlas he had quite a few quality medicines.
“These wounds will heal quickly, but this monster is too fast either…” Evan muttered as he watched the monster turn into a blur.
Moments later, it would rain its fiery claws down on Evan. But, suddenly, Evan’s eyes glowed brightly golden color.
Crack.
At the same moment, a huge, yellow magic circle appeared in the dark space. It slowly began to create a Pillar. It was similar to the one next to the lion, but it had significant differences.
This Pillar was not black like the abyss itself, but gold, just like its chains. It was pure gold without any impurities, which was almost impossible.
It fell with a crash to the edge of the magic circle, which was a huge rat in the center. This had already happened before, now Evan had two different Pillars.
Whoosh.
The monster’s claws almost reached Evan, but the monster suddenly froze like the rest of the world. Evan lifted himself up, and the claws cleaved only the air. The monster was only a centimeter short of reaching Evan.
The monster didn’t realize what had just happened, but that didn’t stop its furious attacks. It turned and attacked Evan with its tails, but the young man dodged at the very last moment. The monster’s furious eyes widened in surprise. Moreover, Evan disappeared from its sight.
Bam.
Evan’s dark fist collapsed on the monster’s chest, and its flesh began to corrode, but the monster decided to burn some of its flesh to stop the corrosion.
Bam.
No sooner it came to its senses than Evan punched it in the jaw with his fist. The monster decided to retreat, suddenly his opponent was several times stronger. The situation was out of control.
“Unbelievable…” Mumbled Evan looking at the strange scene in front of him.
It seemed to him as if the world was slowing down just for him.
Thanks to the appearance of the Pillar, Evan’s vision took on a new level. He could now see clearly the movements that had previously been a blur to him. But, he was still losing in their confrontation.
Evan had gained the ability not to get hit, but he had already used up all the energy of the demon’s weapon. Sure, Evan could use the demon’s sigil again, but he wasn’t sure if the spear of 70th demon Prince Seere could handle such a strong opponent.
<Hmm, if I get the spear again, I can definitely seriously wound him, but the place we’re fighting in is too disadvantageous for me,> Evan thought as he looked at the surviving villagers.
There weren’t that many of them, about twenty people. If the monster were wounded, it would just kill a few people and recover. The ordinary people couldn’t fight back or run away from it.
< There’s a lake just ten meters away from the village, I think it’s time to change our battle site,> Evan thought and rushed towards the lake.
This village was not protected by a wall since they had no one to defend against until today. Evan made it to the lake in just a few seconds.
The monster followed him, it couldn’t let Evan go.
Whoosh.
Evan attacked the monster, he intended to throw it into the water. But, his opponent was not stupid. The monster understood the meaning of Evan’s actions perfectly, so it decided to use its most potent weapons.
In fact, the fire tails and blue flames weren’t the abilities which the monster had got with a special evolution, you could say that it was only a nice bonus. The monster had never used its new ability until now.
Suddenly the monster’s horns glowed, and crimson-colored energy began to build up between them. The power of the charge increased with each passing moment. Such power could easily wipe out an entire village.
“Shit, I wanted to use the lake to my advantage, but he decided to move on to the final part of our fight. Fuck, I wasn’t going do that,” Evan mouthed, irritated, taking off his glove.
In the woods, before meeting the “Demonic Tree” members, Evan prepared for the fight. He drew two sigils on the palms of his hands, one of which was the sigil of the 70th demon, Prince Seere.
Evan hoped he wouldn’t have to activate the second sigil, but he was definitely out of luck this time.
He sighed and calmly said: “Sigil of 69th Demon – Marquis Decarabia, activation!”
