Beside him were one guy and a girl. The other guy had a sharp eyebrow, perfectly shaped lips, dark brown pupils which made it appear black, and a nicely shaved beard.

He also has shoulder-length black hair, it was silky and shiny at that. All in all, the man's appearance screamed good genetics.

Lastly, he wore a red t-shirt, orange gloves, and black shoes. On his back, he carried a long sword.

As for the girl, she also has black hair, brown eyes, puffy cheeks, and smooth, flawless skin.

She didn't have a big mountain peak, but their sizes could be considered descent, as they weren't outright flat either. Her body didn't have an hourglass figure like Kate's, but nonetheless, she has a good shape and lean body.

Lastly, and the most important thing... Her thighs were on top of the class. They were blessed with a good amount of thighs along with his perky butt.

The eyes of the man glowed with red light, while the eyes of the girl glowed yellow. The one who shouted just now was the green-haired man.

Seeing the kind gesture and act of selflessness touched Lucian's heart. He didn't expect that there were still some people who were willing to stand up in the face of such a monster with overwhelming strength.

"I hope you are safe then." Lucian bowed at the three, then look at the boy who died miserably one last time before running.

Brick Norty looked at the annoying vines that entangled him. It wasn't that they were too tough for him. Contrary to it, he already cut them how many times. The only problem was their growth and regeneration rate. He would cut one, two would appear. He would cut two, five would appear! This is the first time Brick felt frustrated after he became a monster.

'No, I need to eliminate the main source to stop these pesky vines.' The tentacles on the monster's body double from their original number and became as sharp as blades.

Then he controlled them, and they split the vines that entangled him and were about to bind him. Now, the number of tentacles could cope just fine. But the vines kept growing in number as he cut them, so it won't be too long before he gets overwhelmed even after he doubled the number of his tentacles.

And even if he could increase the number of tentacles again, there's a limit. After all, if his body doesn't have a place for another one, where would he put it? The monster didn't know if the vines have a limit as well or if they could just keep growing in number.

So with that, Brick Norty rushed at the green-haired guy that he thinks controlled the vines. "Die!!"

The vines couldn't catch up with the monster's figure, so the monster appeared in front of the three with sharp tentacles aiming at their necks. The monster wants to end the battle cleanly by targeting the vitals.

"Flame of the Vindictive!" The man with silky black hair uttered the name of one of his abilities.

He brought both of his arms forward, and a gigantic fireball appeared out of thin air. The temperature in the area increased, plants in the surroundings were burnt visibly, and the air rippled as the temperate was so high that it also affected the wind.

If it was anyone, they would have already stopped in their tracks for fear of turning to ashes. But the monster just snorted, and his arms turned into a large black armor.

"Chris, fire it now!" The green-haired man shouted at his companion.

Chris nodded in his head and threw the raging fireball in the monster's direction. The fireball hit the shield with a loud bang. A cloud of smoke formed in the vicinity, which blocked the vision of the three.

"Did I get him? What do you think Ash?" Chris smiled.

Ash the green-haired man controlled the vines to move on his side. He was prepared to face the monster as he knew that there was a possibility that the monster was still alive. "I don't think so."

"The monster created a shield out of his body. I know your Flame of Vindictive is a killer move, but that's only if it hits directly the monster." The girl who was silent the entire time finally spoke.

"What a joke. I think the monster was already burned to a crisp." Chris was most proud of his fire abilities. He doesn't think that anyone would survive his flames that surpassed even the temperature of lava.

"Do you think such a weak attack could harm me? What more kill me?" A sound of gibberish entered the ears of the three which made heads each a little.historical

Just like that, they saw the black monster unscathed as the cloud of dust dissipated.

"What is it saying? Is it talking to us?" The girl rubbed her temples with a frown on her face.

"I don't know Erica, but it probably has different vocal cords than humans so we can't understand it." Ash immediately manipulated his green vines, planning to restrict the monster's mobility once again.

Seeing the annoying vines coming for him again, Brick took a deep breath, then his arms turned into claws, and his eighteen-meter body shrank to eight meters, his bulging muscle was compressed to the fullest, his physique became leaner, and black mist started to covered his now thing but explosive legs.

'Now, it's time to kill you how I killed that A rank peak.' Brick was most proud of this transformation of his. This form focused on agility while compromising his strength.

Basically, when he was in this form, he was a hundred times faster, but his strength also decreased by at least fifty percent. Though he didn't need much strength as his claws could cut almost any A-rank armor, and his terrifying speed would also compensate for power. After all, speed is power.

So with that, he activated the muscles on his calves and legs. Then he disappeared in his place.

Suddenly, a head flew out and fell to the ground. The vines froze in their place, and Ash's now headless body turned into a shrive corpse in the blink of an eye.
