Chapter 81 Killing the Mountain Giant
"Ambro, there's someone there!"

Yelven's face changed.

"What?" Ambro's heart sank. He didn't expect that there would be someone who dared to enter the Sloda Forest at this time.

The three of them looked closely and found that the fat man seemed familiar.

However, now is not the time to figure out who the fat man is, because the mountain giant has become very irritable under their guidance along the way, and Ambro and the others are like slippery loaches, not giving it any chance at all. Now that it has run into a human head-on, of course it has to vent its anger.

Dak looked up at the mountain giant, his legs trembling. He was not an adventurer, and it was already good enough that he did not wet his pants when facing such a terrifying monster as the mountain giant.

But even so, Dak was not much better off. The pressure from the mountain giant was too great, like a mountain pressing down on his spirit, making it difficult for him to even breathe.

Hearing the voice urging him to run faster in the distance, Dak almost cursed. His legs were so weak that he couldn't even move. How could he run? If he could run, would he need you to remind him?

The mountain giant was not so polite and slapped Dark in the face.

"boom!"

The poor fat man was like a flying ball, bouncing and hitting a tree trunk far away.

The tree, which had been growing for who knows how many years, broke in half. Dak was knocked unconscious and saw nothing but darkness in front of his eyes.

"Not good!" Ambro and the other two were shocked when they saw the mountain giant attacking. If this man was killed, it would be entirely their responsibility.

Without caring about anything else, they rushed towards the direction where Dak was knocked flying, wanting to see if the unlucky guy could still be saved.

Something astonishing happened.

After the fat man came to his senses, he let out a miserable cry, "Ahhh! I'm going to die!"

"He's fine." Alvis said.

Yelvyn nodded.

Ambro nodded as well.

The three of them immediately changed direction and rushed towards the mountain giant.

They all recognized that the fat man was Dark who won the bid for the divine relic. Since he was slapped by the mountain giant but was fine, it meant that he was now wearing the divine relic 'Glittering Golden Thorn Armor'. With that thing, Dark could not die even if he wanted to.

Ambro and the other two faced the mountain giant again, ignoring Dark who was still screaming there.

However, Ambro and his companions found that they had underestimated the mountain giant, or rather, they had underestimated the mountain giant in front of them.

Ambro and Alvis led the attack, with Yervin's magic assisting on the side, but they were still beaten back by the mountain giants and could only barely protect themselves.

Whether it was Lilomoye, Alvis's axe, or Yerven's magic, the attacks could only leave some minor wounds on the mountain giant's body, which was of no importance to the mountain giant's huge body.

On the contrary, they had to resist any attack from the mountain giant as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

"We have no choice but to fight." Ambro gritted his teeth. He knew that the longer this battle dragged on, the more disadvantageous it would be. How could human physical fitness compare with that of mountain giants, even if he was a glory-level adventurer.

"Double acceleration!"

"Body of steel!"

"Sharp Wind!" "Iron Fist Blow!"

Ambro performed four fighting skills in one breath, demonstrating his absolutely excellent warrior qualities, but it was impossible to defeat the mountain giant with just these.

Ambro stepped forward and rushed out at high speed. After using double acceleration, his speed increased by more than one or two points. He slightly turned his head and avoided the mountain giant's fist. The terrible fist wind cut his left cheek.

There was no time to care about such a minor injury. Ambro raised 'Lilo Maya' and injected all his fighting spirit into the sword. Although the magic power of the ancient magic crystal had been consumed, the sharpness of 'Lilo Maya' itself and Ambro's fighting spirit were enough for him to launch the strongest slash yet.

Its name is - Lightning Slash.

This is the strongest fighting skill created by Ambro himself, which has been poured with all his hard work. As the name suggests, this sword is as fast as a lightning bolt.

The mountain giant was very angry when he saw that the human dared to jump in front of him. He clapped his hands together like slapping a mosquito, as if he wanted to beat Ambro into a meat patty.

However, the mountain giant found that he could not move his hands.

On the left, Alvis tightly grasped the left arm of the mountain giant. At this moment, he used the power of "The Earth is Coming" to the extreme. Under the armor, his muscles were tense, veins bulged, and the tip of his tongue was bitten to bleed.

On the right, the mountain giant's right arm had somehow transformed from rock into a gem-like crystal, reflecting beautiful light. The entire right arm looked like a perfect work of art.

The magic is "Structural Reset", but this is a release beyond the load. The usual "Structural Reset" can only be used on weapons such as swords, but this time Yervin changed the structure of the entire arm of the mountain giant, and the consumption involved is even greater than that of ordinary high-level magic.

The companions have done the best they can, whether it is the two of them or Sally and Einbert. Ambro has always been grateful to have such four very reliable partners.

So Ambro gripped the sword even tighter. Perhaps he was powerless in the face of a big demon like Barbatos, but how could a mere mountain giant make him retreat?
This one strike will decide your fate.

The corner of Ambro's mouth curled up at the moment he swung the sword, and he swung "Liramaya" at an imperceptible speed and pierced through the head of the mountain giant.

A tiny crack appeared on the mountain giant's neck, and rock fragments continued to fall off. After a while, the boulder-like head fell off, and the mountain giant's huge body collapsed with a loud bang.

It worked!
Ambro breathed a sigh of relief, but then he felt dizzy and it was as if all his strength had been drained from him. He lay powerlessly on the ground.

It was indeed an extremely difficult battle, but fortunately, a big problem was finally solved. However, the real source...

Even the true vampire couldn't defeat Barbatos alone. Ambro knew very well that according to legend, it would take all the strong people in the world joining forces to achieve that.

Is it possible that... everything we are doing now is in vain...

Ambro closed his eyes in pain. If the true vampire ancestor could not stop Barbatos, everything they were doing now would be meaningless. It was just a struggle before despair.

Yerven and Alvis have fainted from exhaustion, and I no longer have the strength to continue fighting. It seems that everything has to end here... All I can do next is to leave it to fate.

Just as Ambro was thinking this, he noticed that there seemed to be a fat figure wandering around him.

"You..." Ambro moved his mouth, not knowing what to say.

In front of him was a neatly-made suit of golden armor.

"It's really ugly that a glory-level adventurer has to struggle so hard to fight a monster." Dark said with a pout.

"Don't break it, or you'll have to pay for it."

　Ahem, in the next chapter someone who has been offline for a long time will be online...
