Chapter 867 866: Terracotta Grottos (20)

lightsn?v?l ??The Khopesh that Anput had recently forged for me swung up into the belly of the leaping feline monster, its curved outer crescent slicing cleanly into the diseased flesh of this Undead monster, something that made me grimace somewhat as my blade tore open its blighted body and allowed its putrid blood to explode outwards in a shower around me.

Slicing the monster cleanly in half, I grimaced again as the scent of its decay was amplified, its flesh sloughing off of the bone in an almost liquid state as the mana that kept it solid dissipated, the monster now dead for good.

I had little time to sate my morbid fascination with what was keeping these monsters moving and maintaining them in a state of strength to allow them to run and jump as quickly as they do; instead, I reached for the hilt of my Khopesh with my other hand and swung it back down, meeting the head of a deer monster that wanted to stab me with its antlers.

The inside crescent of my Khopesh was going to remain unused for this battle, since this was one time that I didn't want to cause unneeded damage to my enemies - doing so would result in their impure blood being spilt more than it needed to, and it wasn't just the scent that I despised, it was the color too.

Instead of that brilliant, beautiful scarlet that painted such impressive and lovely paintings wherever it was spilt, this putrid liquid was a dark brownish red that looked hideous and evoked no emotions inside me past disgust.

So, I cleaved the skull of the deer monster in half with a single slash, before yanking the blade free and taking a step back as a gobbet of acidic spit was lobbed at me from afar, followed swiftly by a bundle of Wind Mana that exploded upon contact with the ground.

Retracing the origins of those projectiles, I spun the Khopesh around and activated the inner enchantment, creating a discus and launching it through the air towards a pair of monsters that seemed to have been fused together.

A large, hulking Ogre limped slowly towards us, half of its skull missing and allowing its brain to be seen, while a green scaled snake was woven around its body, its own head resting just beside the Ogre's cracked skull as if protecting it.

Hissing, the snake parted its jaws and tried to shoot another projectile, only for it to widen its eyes as the discus sliced cleanly through both the Ogre and the snake, cutting them in two and sending them falling to the ground with a wet thud.

The booming crack of lightning filled the grotto as Ammit hurled lightning bolts at random, the golden Demoness smiting those that stepped out of line all while she caged one of the monsters inside a dome of lightning, incapacitating it and saving it for further investigation.

The rest of the Demons all brandished their blades and efficiently cut down that which was in front of them, and as I focused on the closest monsters again, I spun the Khopesh back around and sliced upwards, activating the outer enchantment and summoning a slew of icicles that stabbed into the bellies and feet of the monsters that were lumbering towards me.

When the icicles shattered upon impacting the monsters, I got to relish the increase in strength of my magic as I watched the all too familiar scene of ice tearing through the decaying flesh of those monsters, spreading frost over their bodies and causing them to stumble into my blade.

Swift, precise slashes finished them off, and I continued forwards as we cut down the horde of Undead, only to have to switch to the normal monsters as they too swarmed into the grotto, taking this chance to rid the Dungeon of these impure creatures all while they also tried to kill us as well.

A small, yet swift ferret lunged for my throat, only to be swatted aside as a bear reared up onto its hind legs and swiped its giant paw at my face, accidentally hitting the Undead ferret instead and almost making the fluffy diseased rodent explode from the force of the blow.

Rolling to the side, I felt the paw hurtle through the air above me as the bear maintained its attack, only for it to growl as it looked down to see me stabbing my blade towards its mattered, root covered fur.

That growl gave way to a roar as my Khopesh pierced its side and slid into its muscular torso, and the bear snarled not in pain, but in anger as it swiped its paw at me again, forcing me back as I yanked my Khopesh free, pulling out a long strip of its flesh and causing its blood to splash against the gravel below.

As it tried to lunge forwards and snap its wide, saliva coated jaws over my arm, the bear grunted as an Undead wolf slammed into the side that I had just stabbed, likely aiming for me but instead hitting the bear, which was pushed back at the sudden impact.

Claws shredded through the bear's flesh as the wolf tore into it, only for the Undead to yelp as it was swatted away with a crunch as its back and ribs were shattered when the bear retaliated.

Roaring, the bear returned its focus on me, but the wolf had given me more than enough time to work with as I rushed forwards and chopped my Khopesh into the wounded side of the bear, eliciting another roar as I hacked at its ribcage and revealed the lungs beneath... as well as the beating heart, which burst when pulsed my mana through my blade, showering my arms in gore as the bear began to fall forwards.

I pulled away and leapt to the side, avoiding the almost silent strike of a serpent as it smacked into the bear, its fangs lodged into the meat and pumping it full of venom instead of me, which made it all too easy to just decapitate the snake with a single strike.
