Chapter 26: This Minotaur pissed me off
"That was fun, it's been a while since I let loose," Silva said.
He picked up all the crystals that were on the ground and continued his way inside.
ROAR!
A powerful gust of wind hit Silva as he took his next turn. He looked and saw two chimeras standing and guarding what looked like a large door.
"This floor is unpredictable and fun," Silva said before charging at the chimeras. His movements were too fast, and he ran past them, causing the chimeras to explode into a mist of blood.
He took their crystals and stored them. He walked to the door and placed his hands on it, adding just a little strength. The doors opened up.
It revealed what looked like an arena. There was another gate on the other side, but Silva knew that getting to it was not going to be that easy.
Just as he thought, a light appeared at the center, and a minotaur appeared, wielding a large axe.
Silva eagerly used dragon eyes on him to see the stats of the minotaur, and what he saw had his blood boiling.
The minotaur had stats above 200 and also seemed to have a unique bloodline.
"I can't believe I was sent to fight a child, what was it thinking?" the minotaur spoke.
"It can speak? This just keeps getting better," Silva said, his hunger for battle rising.
"Kid, leave now, I have no intention of battling you," the minotaur said, but when he looked up, he saw Silva charging at him with crazy speed.
Silva had a wide grin on his face. He leaped into the air and came down with a powerful slash. The minotaur used its axe to block.
Bam!
The sword and axe collided, causing a very loud sound. The minotaur's arm trembled after blocking that attack, and he looked at Silva with shock.
"Such power, how can that small boy produce this much power? Who is this human?" the minotaur thought.
Silva didn't give it any time to recover from the shock. He came in with another slash, more powerful than the first.
The minotaur parried the strike, but even then, the force his arm took was great. He took a step back to prepare for Silva's next attack.
Silva kept going with slashes left and right, while the minotaur was kept on the defensive.
"How is this kid capable of all this? I can't even counter him. Don't tell me I'll have to use that to win," the minotaur was lost in thought about what to do.
"You should really activate your bloodline if you want to stand a chance against me," Silva said.
"How do you know about that?" the minotaur asked.
"Is that important now?" Silva said as he attacked again. He went into a flurry of slashes that pushed the minotaur back.
All that Silva was doing was pushing the minotaur to use its bloodline. He wanted to see how much stronger the minotaur would become.
The minotaur saw that there was no way for him to overpower this kid, so he activated his bloodline.
His body burst with a very sinister energy, his eyes glowed red, his muscles tightened, his size increased, and his skin became darker.
"I admit that you are strong, kid, but enough playing around," the minotaur said and grabbed Silva by the head, starting to squeeze it.
While his head was getting squeezed, Silva used dragon eyes to check the new stats of the minotaur and see how much they changed.
When he looked at the stats, they had all just barely passed 220, with the highest being strength at 230.
When Silva saw this, he became pissed. He used his hands to grab the hand that was holding his head and then transformed his hand into his dragon arms.
With this, his power was about 280 to 300. He squeezed the minotaur's hand and dislocated its bones in a swift motion.
The minotaur let go of Silva and cried out in pain. Silva transformed his right hand back to normal and held his sword with it.
"You piece of crap, you had a little power-up, and you thought you could disrespect me? You grabbed my head when you lacked the power to back yourself up," Silva said.
What he was really pissed off about was how useless that unique bloodline was. But in actuality, that bloodline was not useless; some might even say it was overpowered.
Small kingdoms would go to war to have a person with such a bloodline, that was how unique it was, just by increasing the person's stats by a few tens.
But Silva didn't know this, and it pissed him off that the bloodline was that weak.
The minotaur looked up in shock. Even with its bloodline, he was unable to do anything. Rather, it seemed the kid had gotten stronger.
Initially, Silva had wanted to make this minotaur his first summon, but after this pathetic and disrespectful display, his interest disappeared.
He walked up to the minotaur. The minotaur leaped back in fear, but Silva used flash step and was already behind it. He stabbed it through the heart and killed it.
[You have killed a minotaur, 500 Exp, 250 Sp]x10.
Rather than a crystal, what dropped this time was a two-handed great axe. Silva took the axe from the ground.
[Minotaur's Rage.]
[Special ability: Increases all stats by 50% for ten seconds]x10.
Even though the minotaur disappointed him, the drop made him feel better.
After killing the minotaur, the other door opened, and Silva walked through.
He got into a cave corridor that was oddly quiet, but he didn't read much into it and continued moving forward.
When he was so far away from the door he came from that he could not even see it anymore, he heard a hiss, a very loud one from a distance, and also a very loud shout, a voice he was sure belonged to Roxy, he quickly chatted in that direction.
