The Max Level Hero Has Returned!

Originally, Shandra Minea was a hero from the Hall; it was one of the mythical beasts of Shane Scrift. Shane wasn’t from Tionis, so the probability that Shandra Minea existing here should be next to zero. However, it was right in front of Davey’s eyes; he had to believe it. He thought Shandra would just be an evil beast who had gotten stronger from its long lifetime, but it was much more than he had expected.

“Hm… Still alive after a hit from a transcendental being. Was that holy magic protecting you?”

“…”

Davey let out a deep sigh as he glanced at the man speaking nonchalantly from afar. He couldn’t help but scoff. ‘This would’ve been a pretty deadly hit if it wasn’t for the 7th level holy magic [Holy Blessing] he had cast before entering the forest.’

“I’m telling you; you’ve done something completely insane. Do you know that? Shandra Minea is a mythical beast with unbelievable immunity.”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

This wasn’t just crazy, but it was insane. From the looks of it, it seemed like Shandra Minea’s clone that had separated from its real body; if the clone was this powerful, Davey could already imagine what the actual one would be like.

Grrr…

The surrounding air began to vibrate with the clone’s low growling. A powerful being affected their surroundings just by leaving a mark of their presence. If the original body had the capability of a Grandmaster, there was a good possibility that its clone, which only had a part of the original power, could also leave a mark of their presence as well. This was also the case in the Duchy of Felicity where Davey used the 9th level ultimate holy magic [Saint Sanctuary]; the aftermath of the holy power hadn’t disappeared yet.

“How unfortunate… So unfortunate. What else can I do? Kill him, Treve.”

“Understood.”

Treve answered the man calmly, then his eyes glistened as he provoked Shandra once more with his abilities. Twisting its body, Shandra began to scream and resist. Then, it glared at Davey. Shandra normally wasn’t weak enough to be tricked by illusions, but it seemed like the reason it was falling under was because it was ruined in a strange way. The captain stared at it with satisfaction and then quickly ran toward the direction where the other men in black robes went as if he had nothing more to do here. It seemed like he didn’t doubt for a second that Davey was going to be defeated by Shandra.

‘Well, I would think like that, too.’

At the same time, Shandra locked his large eyes onto him as he opened his jaws wide.

Shing… Zing!! As Davey was about to shout, a large blue ray of light flashed before his eyes.

‘An extremely cold breath.’

Shandra’s frosty attacks were incomparably more powerful than the small lasers Rinne shot. Its unbelievable power was evident in the fact that it shot a huge hole in the mountains behind him with one breath.

‘Still, it’s a lot weaker than when it could split the sea in half.’

The original Shandra had the power of a Grandmaster. It was somewhat of a relief that this clone of Shandra didn’t exhibit the same level of power Davey knew.

“Wow…”

-Yo—Your arm…”

It was as if Davey couldn’t react in time not because he didn’t know the attack was coming but because his body was too slow to move. He frowned when he glanced at his left arm that had basically turned into powder from the powerful blast of frost. He had no choice but to drop Blue Ribbon, but it was a relief that the blade seemed unaffected by the breath.

‘I guess it isn’t a divine sword for no reason.’

-Davey, why Blue Ribbon…

“You think the power is almighty?”

If his opponent was something like Shandra, his actual powers were more important than the actual power of the sword.

Strictly speaking, Shandra’s breaths were also energy balls, which were part of the anti-physical realm. Davey would be able to slash Shandra, but if he did, he would become a mummy after all his mana would be drained from his body. This wasn’t right, but he wasn’t one to back down.

“This isn’t just any opportunity.”

He was going to try and find remnants of either Shandra or some other transcendental being, but there was no need for that if there was one standing right in front of him.

-I am begging you, Davey, but please be careful! You must be careful of everything!

Davey had one chance, and he was as careful and cautious as anyone could be right now. To do this…

“First, I am going to eat it.”

In the end, metamorphing was the complete destruction and rearrangement of the body. Davey could never forget the one thing that the ‘Survival Expert’ had told him: there was nothing humans couldn’t eat, but it was that the body would not be able to handle everything.

For a transcendental being as strong as Shandra, the power in its body would be extremely intense and strong; furthermore, it would be the worst thing for the human body. This meant that it was a perfect bomb for him.

* * *

Roar!!!!

For the first time, Rinne frowned as Shandra’s loud roar crushed the surrounding atmosphere. Considering that Rinne, who always maintained a straight face no matter what, was clenching her jaw, it seemed like the effect was pretty strong.

‘It’s not like you’re a transparent dragon or something.’

Of course, Shandra’s roar also affected Treve as well.

“Cough!” Treve turned pale and coughed up a lot of blood. As his eyes glistened with light once more, a blue energy surrounded Shandra Minea, the terrestrial dragon. “It's almost done… I will not fail now…”

“You’re funny.”

“What?”

“It might stumble a little now, but in a few days, your illusion magic won’t work.”

“My illusions are not weak.”

“It’s not that you’re weak; that guy is just strong.”

The only reason Davey hadn’t pierced his sword into Treve yet was because Shandra’s movements had become quite awkward since Treve was controlling Shandra, although Treve himself was barely holding on.

‘I’m letting you go just this once since it makes things a little easier for me.’

Dodging Shandra’s tail, which flung toward him with a sonic boom, Davey charged toward its upper back and struck with his fist loaded with sword energy. The only way a sword could be pierced into tough scales was to first create a crack in it by giving it some kind of shock. It would be easy for Davey to be defeated if he attacked it without knowing this.

-Kahhhh!!!

Perhaps it could still feel pain even though it had become half-monster. The scales of Shandra, who was screaming and struggling to get Davey off its body, was much more tough than he had imagined. However, Davey was a pro at slashing and cutting things. He released more mana than he could handle and fired up Red Ribbon’s power, then threw the blade right at the part where the scale was slightly dented.

Splatter!! With a very small cut, some blood splattered in the air.

“I can tell how damn tough you are now that I fight you after being nerfed.”

Of course, this wasn’t enough. It would be difficult to slash even Shandra’s scales with Davey’s current physical abilities that had been strengthened with buff magic spells and level of power he could use.

“Shandra Minea is a monster that has evolved over thousands of years.”

Even if the being in front of Davey was just a clone, a monster like that would match up to a dragon written in ancient books.

Whip! Shing…

Bringing Red Ribbon, which was flying in the air, into his only arm, Davey took a short breath and closed his eyes. “Dear Goddess Freyja, who watches over everything in the world…”

The most effective kind of buff magic was holy magic.

“I will do more than I can handle, so please, so that your little sheep will not walk in the dark anymore…”

‘If I don’t have enough power, I have no choice but to borrow some.’

“Watch over me. What I yearn for is your power.”

Whoosh… As Davey’s prayer went on, the holy power inside him began reacting like crazy; although it was extremely lazy, it became the most passionate if it received the divine will.

“Blue Ribbon, I’m borrowing some of your holy power.”

It was Red Ribbon before, but now it was Blue Ribbon. The large amount of holy power flowing out from Blue Ribbon’s blade began chemically reacting with the holy power within Davey.

“The cost…” Davey trailed off and opened his eyes while saying his last prayer, “Let’s just call it even with doing good deeds.”

[9th level Holy Magic]

[Replica of Holy Wings]

It wasn’t an ultimate holy magic spell, but it was still at the 9th level.

‘It wasn’t like I’ve done nothing in the meantime.’

Unlike other types of magic, even a newbie priest could create a miracle of God if they had holy power and experience. That was actually the reason how Davey was able to cast the 9th level ultimate holy magic, [Saint Sanctuary], at the Duchy of Felicity.

Although this wasn’t nearly as much holy power compared to Caldeiras, Davey had put his life on the line for this; he would actually welcome the rebound to his body!

Whoosh!!!! An incomparable amount of holy power flowed out from Davey’s back and created a set of large, white wings made with energy. It looked super cheesy, but the power contained in it and the power linked with Davey was not weak. The color of his sight started to change as the stigmata began resonating and a suffocating amount of holy power surrounded his entire body. Davey’s eyes, which were normally red, had probably turned to white gold, which was called the Eyes of God.

Davey didn’t stop with the attack-type 9th level holy magic that allowed him to borrow God’s fake wings, but cast dozens of other spells on it.

Whoosh!!!

“What is…”

Davey could see Treve’s shocked face as energy gathered toward him while dodging Shandra’s attacks from afar. However, Davey had no time to pay much attention to Treve.

‘There would be no second chances if I missed this opportunity now.’

As an incomparable amount of power surrounded his body, Davey felt a little satisfied as it had been a long time since he had felt this kind of power.

‘It’s not exactly enough, but it shouldn’t matter, right?’

Using [Aura Blade] with Red Ribbon, Davey crushed the wings on his back and converted it all into power. At the same time, Shandra’s huge front feet came down with immense weight and power like it was trying to crush him. It wasn’t just any stomping, since he could practically feel the pressure of Shandra’s essence.

[Combined Spontaneous Quick Draw]

“You don’t even have your original body! Don’t mess with me!” Davey charged toward Shandra without dodging its attack, which contained destructive power. He crossed and twisted Red Ribbon, which he was holding with one hand, and Blue Ribbon, which he was holding with [Telekinetic Blade] since he only had one hand, in the sky.

[Divine Union]

[Telekinetic Blade Control]

[Heavenly Double Fangs]

Two large fangs that pierced through the sky ripped Shandra’s feet and pierced one side of its shoulder. All the buff magic disappeared from Davey at that moment, but he had already reached his goal. He could see Treve’s wide eyes of shock when he successfully pierced through Shandra’s tough skin.

‘What I am going to show you right now is going to be much more bewildering and surprising.’

Davey quickly ran up the arm of Shandra, who was shouting and flailing around, and threw Red Ribbon up into the air to hover it in the sky. Then, he dug his fist with sword energy into the cut on its shoulder. Splatter!!! Then, Davey ripped off Shandra’s skin, which was covered in blood.

-Kahhh!!

Davey, who backed away from the screaming and flailing Shandra, was knocked quite far back. He still did not let go of the piece of skin in his hand. “Hm, what a foul smell.”

Although Davey was confident he could eat it, it didn’t mean that it didn’t spoil his appetite. Staring at the skin, he pushed it into his mouth and swallowed it without hesitation.

Whoosh! Boom!!

“Keugh!”

At the same time, Davey’s strangely rotating mana that had been prepared earlier resonated with Shandra’s skin and began putting intense pressure on him. Like a rock, Davey stiffened and collapsed. The body Davey had prepared beforehand reacted vigorously as soon as it began accepting the chaotic power contained within its skin. Then, it began destroying Davey little by little from the inside.

-Davey!!!

As Perserque screamed, Davey glanced at Shandra through his hazy vision. As mad as it could ever be, Shandra began building up its breath in its mouth like it was going to destroy him. He didn’t know how Shandra Minea, a fire-type, had come to have extremely cold frost, but he suspected that this attack would be enough to destroy him.

‘I’ll punish you if you don’t get the last hit right.’

As soon as Davey concluded, an extremely cold, frosty breath enveloped him. However, Shandra didn’t stop there and blew up part of the Zone of Evil without leaving a trace.
