Chapter 330 330 - Making Use of Everything at Hand

After muttering that, Aiden looked up with a serious look in his eyes. He would be killing this octopus in a few seconds.

He jumped while swiftly dodging the first tentacle that arrived in his trajectory, he couldn't cut it after all. Then, there was another in his way, and another, and another, Aiden had some momentum but each dodge made him lose some of it.

Those dodges were two sides of a coin, on one side he lived because of his dodging and on the other, he couldn't kill the octopus in front of him. He was stuck as he backed off quickly realizing that his plan wouldn't work.

He had tried flying after the jump, but it still didn't work... it made it even easier for the monster to attain him since he wasn't as used to flying as jumping.

Aiden and the octopus were at a standpoint, looking at each other, not a single movement from either of them—analyzing the slightest movement that they would be performing.

'What can I do?' Aiden thought, realizing that brute force wouldn't be the right choice in this situation.

It was the first time in his life that a monster was giving him so many problems.

The only other time that could maybe count was the the Cyclops that he had fought in the very first trial where he had demanded help from Ava, but apart from that he hadn't really struggled against any type of monster.

Minutes passed, and Aiden was still walking looking at that beast that was right in front of him, only a couple of steps away from him.

They were in the same situation as earlier and it seemed that this whole fight wouldn't be progressing any time soon, the person who would make the first move would probably lose after all.

'I could maybe use that pet of hers since it's from the Lumithars, it should be strong, right?' Aiden thought as he was slowly starting to find a solution to his problem.

"Evelynn, can I get some help?" Aiden asked.

He remembered that he had told her to stay there and act pretty, but times had changed. He had learned a lot more about that creature that he would be needing help for this fight.

As he asked for some help, he activated the strongest skill in his arsenal, [Mind of an Assassin].

He started seeing a shadow of himself starting to die over and over again, and as usual, it would stop when he found a way to win.

And if it didn't then... the odds of Aiden winning this fight would be terribly low. They would need a miracle to help.

Evelynn who heard him ask for her help was confused since that wasn't anything like he had just said, like at all.

"S-Sure!" She replied, unsure if she was going to have an input in this fight even if she wanted to.

'This is my fault, after all,' she thought.

She was the one who had made this monster much stronger by destroying those tentacles all around him. At first, there had only been eight or nine, but now... there were too many to count.

The thing is that she hadn't understood right away what was happening which is why she kept cutting them over and over again. That's why the current was so difficult, she was the reason why all this was happening.

However, as she looked at Aiden's face she seemed somewhat reassured as he still hadn't lost his smile at all. He seemed to enjoy the adversity which was something that most wouldn't want to face.

"What do I need to do?" She asked as she slowly stood up, realizing that she would be playing a part in this fight.

She needed to be focused and stop thinking about all those useless thoughts. If she made even the slightest mistake then she would be in some trouble and that wasn't what she wanted at all.

Aiden wasn't going to shout the whole time as he swiftly started advancing toward her. He knew that she was badly hurt, but the truth was that he didn't really need help from her directly.

He needed help from that little monster which was currently hugging one of her legs. Aiden knew that this little guy had some strength hidden... he remembered that smile that he had received when he had when through the portal.

That little creature certainly wasn't normal.

"Stay sit, I need help from your little monster," Aiden said as he pointed directly toward the little thing.

The monster seemed confused, however, such a reaction couldn't trick Aiden anymore. He knew that this monster was currently acting. 

"You want his help and not mine?" She asked, somewhat hurt by those words.

She knew that most of her strength came from that beast, but for him to say that he wouldn't be needing her help at all was very rude altogether.

"Yes, you're too hurt to help me," Aiden said without any remorse, but then as he looked at her face a little he realized that she was hurt by what he had just said, and that's why he managed to release another word from his mouth.

It was a word that he didn't say often, in fact, he couldn't remember the last time that he had said it to someone.

"Sorry, nothing against you."

Evelynn nodded as she knew that his reason was actually valid which is why she handed him the little monster that was grabbing onto her leg as if its life depended on it.

He was trying to make Evelynn take pity on it, but that was a strategy that wouldn't work at all.

She didn't care anymore, she knew that there were good chances that she would die here if Aiden couldn't beat that giant octopus.

She was so hurt that she struggled to stand up, so she couldn't imagine what would happen if she had to actually walk.

Still, she dismissed those thoughts as she looked into those piercing red eyes.

"Thanks, I'll make good use of him," he said to Evelynn before looking at the small monster. "You'll be useful, huh?"
