Chapter 80: Kaiju’s Counterattack

Bune couldn’t process his thoughts correctly, failing to recall Kaiju’s shadow condensed mana on the Bloodthorn earlier to deflect the Luminari’s arrow. The bloodline awakening was, in fact, from Little Gorilla, who did not even hesitate. His skin radiated an intense, dazzling light, similar to the Luminari. However, compared to the latter, the dazzling light was the reflection of being absorbed by Little Gorilla’s skin, whereas the Luminari diffused light.

The absorbed light by Little Gorilla formed a barrier that he could manipulate freely. At this point, he was aware of his role and did not hesitate to expand the barrier on his allies. At the same time, Little Gorilla released an aura, similar to the mana aura of an Overlord, but instead of oppression, the aura that Little Gorilla recognized as allies received a boost on their durability and stamina regeneration.

Kaiju discerned the buffness of his durability, and when he glanced at Little Gorilla, he knew Little Gorilla’s defense soared. Even he doubted if he could manage to leave a scratch if he sliced his skin with all of his strength. He grinned.

He glanced at the Luminari and was not affected by the blinding light, still seeing her almost inconspicuous silhouette.

Little Gorilla is her nemesis.

Kaiju suddenly perceived the effects of Light Resistance taking effect and his lips curved even more.

And me.

Kaiju saw the disbelief in the Luminari’s expression. It was already surprising he managed to catch the Luminari, as the latter blended with the light he created, but Kaiju could even spot the subtle change in her movement. If Bune was aware of it, he would be shocked.

"How is this possible?" The Luminari was deeply shaken and roared. She did not expect to encounter another bloodline awakening that countered hers, causing her to begin hesitating.

At this moment, Kaiju knew he had to make a move. I must kill her. He had already decided, for the Luminari had witnessed something she should not have. The matter of Little Gorilla possessing a bloodline awakening must be kept a secret, as to repeat the similar situation in the future–where the enemies would be caught by surprise, increasing their chances of winning.

Kaiju utilized the effect of the Light Resistance skill at first to analyze the dazzling light in front of him.

Kaiju experimented with the light, especially using his shadow mana to counter it, but the light was too strong. His condensed mana could only swallow a bit of light. His condensed mana from the advanced dagger mastery did not cost mana points, as the mana cost and mana recovery points were equalized. Kaiju was a bit disheartened by the result but he continued his experiment.

At the same time, Snow and the other serpents were waiting to make a move. The latter was observing Snow, who was hesitating whether to activate her bloodline awakening. However, she was aware she would be fighting against the infernal to counterattack him, like what Little Gorilla did to the Luminari.

Hence, she kept observing, even squinting her eyes just to stare at the all dazzling white direction of Bune. If she sensed Bune would activate his bloodline awakening, she would not hesitate to follow, too.

She issued a command to the other serpents, "We must keep an eye on the infernal."

Snow was following the Hunter’s Gambit formation. Since Little Gorilla already grabbed the attention of the enemy, her role would be to distract the infernal while her master was trying to ambush the Luminari. The other serpents would follow her, and if possible, cease the life of the infernal.

As she was waiting, her master said, "Snow, poison me."

She was stunned, but then, did not hesitate to bite her master’s neck, overflowing Kaiju’s veins with poison. At the same time, the ring on Kaiju’s finger gleams with an emerald glow, harnessing the harmful effects of poison to enhance his physical strength. Kaiju rubbed the ring to instruct it to increase his physical strength instead of durability.

Slowly, Kaiju could perceive the strengthening effects of the Ring of Venomous Resilience, assessing the overflowing power by tightening his fists. As soon as Snow was finished, and the effect of the Ring of Venomous Resilience reached the peak, Kaiju discerned his strength increased more than two fold.

This should suffice. If earlier I can only deflect the arrows, I can now surely slice it. Kaiju confidently assumed. The condensed mana would be useless without the weight behind the force of his attack. So, as Kaiju admitted his mana condensation was a bit weaker compared to the Luminari, he came out on top when it came to strength.

Kaiju did not want to waste anymore time and readied himself. He still wore the Shadowveil Hood, despite knowing all of its effects were entirely useless against the light emitted by Little Gorilla and Luminari, leaving not a single speck of shadow on the surroundings.

Kaiju utilized the effects of the Zephyrstride boots to rush out of the Little Gorilla’s barrier. After all, he did not want to use blink to conserve mana. Kaiju then used the Wind Platform to run in mid-air, attempting to reach the Luminari.

The Luminari perceived his presence and was infuriated. She shouted, "Why are you not affected by the light?" She could perceive Kaiju was staring right through her, meaning he was not even blinded by the light.

Out of rage, she manipulated the light with her right hand to transform into a growing beam. The growing beam was more potent compared to arrows she bombarded Kaiju earlier, as the former was a single target attack. She did not want to underestimate her enemy anymore, despite believing earlier that a single judgement beam could annihilate Kaiju.

At the same time, with her left hand, she moved her index finger intricately and then swept it upward.

Kaiju concentrated on the growing beam and his eyes squinted, perceiving the danger emitted by it. However, he was more terrified by the Luminari’s left hand and when he tilted his head upward to glance where it was pointing, his face turned ashen.

A powerful storm of countless beams of light were formed. Although it was nothing compared to the growing, more concentrated beams of light on her right hand, just receiving one from it would wound him... now, imagine thousands of those raining down on him.
