“Powerful Downward Strike!”

Whooaaah!

Thud! Thud! Thud!

With just a D-rank Powerful Downward Strike, the monsters were blown away in a heap, accompanied by an incredible sonic boom.

“This is insane! It’s truly insane power!”

The red aura that had overtaken his entire body was the source of this power—Fury.

As he activated Fury, an unimaginable force poured into his body from the bracelet. A force he had never felt before.

“Kwuuaaaah!”

“Haaaap!”

Zzzeuuk!

With this power as a foundation, Kaiyan swung his sword lightly, and the massive Minotaur’s body was split in half.

Surrounded by the red aura enveloping his entire body as if it were emitting from his being, Kaiyan brutally slaughtered the monsters, dismembering their limbs with each swing of his sword.

It was a mad ability that allowed him to engage in a massacre-like action against medium and large-sized monsters.

Clang! [You have leveled up]

The level-up notification sounded as Kaiyan ruthlessly slew the monsters, but at this point, it didn’t matter at all. After all, since the red aura surged forth, he hadn’t experienced any decrease in his health.

“If I have this power…!”

He wondered if it was possible for him to emit a power comparable to an Aura Master. If he had this strength, he could at least slaughter regular monsters, if not the super-sized ones. It wasn’t such a strange thought to have.

“But… What’s the price?”

The skill Fury skill granted immense power, that much he understood, but what was the price to pay for this power?

Up until now, he had observed that the player system operated on a relatively fair scale. A 100G item granted exactly 100G worth of abilities, and a 200G item granted 200G worth of abilities.

Of course, depending on how it was used, it could grant even greater abilities, but there were still limits.

But the problem was that Saragana’s Fury was a 500G item.

“It’s not a low price, but…”

Saragana’s Fury also offered additional attributes besides the Fury skill, making it quite worthwhile.

By just wearing the bracelet, the stats increase by an astounding +15 Strength and +15 Agility. On top of that, it grants the Fury skill, which provides such power?

“It’s strange.”

Even for a 3000G item, this level of performance would be hard to believe, yet it’s being sold for a mere 500G. The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he became.

If that’s the case, there must be a minimum price of 2500G to pay.

Kiiieek-

“Hehehe! Stop right there, you insect-like fellow!”

At that moment, with a creaking sound, the door to the central tower opened, revealing a skeletal figure wearing a black robe.

“That guy is…”

As the figure appeared, the sensation that had subsided with the Fury surged to its peak once again. It meant that even in the Fury state, facing this individual was dangerous.

The skeletal figure floating in the sky slowly descended toward Kaiyan.

“Who are you exactly? I can’t stand not knowing! I’m so curious that I’d like to examine every single cell of yours! Hehehe!”

“….”

Kaiyan didn’t know how to deal with the skeletal figure who was talking and laughing to himself.

Should he launch a surprise attack first? Or should he engage in some conversation to assess the situation?

While he was contemplating, it seemed Kaiyan’s silence didn’t sit well with the skeletal figure, as a brighter light emanated from his eye sockets.

“You won’t talk, huh? Well, fine! I’d have fun finding out for myself anyway!”

The skeletal figure raised his thin, black finger and pointed at Kaiyan.

“Death Finger!”

Chwaaaak-

“Danger…!”

In an instant, a massive black finger, more than dozens of times larger, flew towards Kaiyan at a rapid speed, and as soon as he sensed the danger, he leaped and kicked off the ground, darting to the right.

Poohwaaak!

At the same time, the black finger collided with the spot where Kaiyan had been just a moment ago, spewing black energy that looked dangerously lethal.

Chiiiik!

The black energy melted the solid ground in an instant.

“If I had been hit by that…!”

Avoiding the black finger was a matter of hair’s breadth.

Moreover, Kaiyan was using Fury right now. If he wasn’t, there’s no way he could have dodged it.

“…He’s even more dangerous than I thought.”

To think that he could release such an attack without any prior preparation.

It sent shivers down Kaiyan’s spine. He never expected to encounter such a formidable opponent in a place like this.

“Hehehe! You dodged that? You’re faster than most knights! Then, try dodging this! Dark Sphere!”

The skeletal figure immediately shot dozens of black spears.

“Let’s dodge.”

As Kaiyan looked at the approaching spears, he prepared to leap.

Even if he kept his distance, it was evident that he would be under constant one-sided attack. The only way to deal with him was to get close.

Though the magic he used was a bit peculiar, he was a wizard after all. If he got close, he would have the advantage.

“Now!”

Paaat!

“No way!”

The skeletal figure exclaimed in surprise.

It was reasonable since the moves Kaiyan displayed could be considered trickery.

Moving quickly forward, he managed to avoid the spheres with subtle movements. The distance between the spheres passing by was just about the size of a blade.

“I need to maximize my senses!”

It was an evolution of senses that would be impossible on a regular day.

Using the power of the Fury Skill, Kaiyan maximized his senses as much as possible. As a result, he could predict the moment before the attack.

Though dozens of black spheres were aimed from all directions, Kaiyan could sense the gaps between the spears instinctively.

Shwiiik-

“Just a bit more!”

The distance between the skeletal figure and Kaiyan was only 20m.

Seeing him rapidly approaching, the figure seemed flustered and took a step back, then quickly regained composure and raised his hand again.

“Just die! You insect-like fellow! Poison Cloud! Darkness!”

Poohwaaah!

“…Just a bit more, and I could swing my sword!”

Kaiyan was almost at the point where he could swing his sword, but an indeterminable magic released from the figure’s hand was engulfing the world in darkness and closing in quickly.

Even with momentary predictions, Kaiyan couldn’t find any gaps in the dark veil.
