The Greatest Sinner

Chapter 128 - The Final Adversary

Suddenly a strong wind blew into the arena. It moved quickly toward the center and turned into a massive tornado.

Snow-white hair flew off Evan's palm, and the young man himself looked closely at what was happening. At the moment, the arena was changing again and now the last and strongest monster should come out.

The tornado was powerful enough to draw in all the broken roots, monsters` carcasses, and tons of water. It looked deadly and majestic. One such tornado was enough to completely obliterate everything that had happened in the previous three stages.

Whoosh.

The tornado began to slowly shrink and turn into a dense sphere. It grew smaller with every second until it shrank to the size of a seed.

Whoosh.

Evan blinked and there wasn't even the seed anymore, the tornado had vanished without a trace, destroying everything that was in it.

Only a few roots there were in the arena that hadn`t been broken yet. The area was once again empty.

Like everyone else, Evan waited for the last monster to appear. Everyone was excited, they were finally going to meet the main adversary of this test. Everyone was going to give his best and be rewarded personally by the head of "The Last Moon". This was an incredible opportunity.

Crack.

A gap was formed in the wall and at the same moment, cumbersome footsteps were heard. Even from the sounds one could tell that the enemy was large and strong.

<So, there it is, the one I will kill very soon>. Evan thought to himself, smiling and looking at the final monster.

It was an anthropomorphic creature about three meters tall. It had two arms and two legs like a human. Its skin was bloody red and it was dressed in black armor with silver framing. Its long black hair reached to the waist, and its wild eyes hiding behind the helmet were terrifying. In its left hand, there was a huge two-handed sword, about two and a half meters long. It was "Bloody Berserker".

"It looks very strong, but something is wrong with it, why is it so skinny?" Evan said quietly, looking at the monster.

The "Bloody Berserker" looked dangerous, but its body didn't look quite up to its image. The monster looked like it hadn't eaten in months, just bones and skin. But, that didn't mean Evan was going to underestimate it.

<It can easily hold that huge sword, and his footsteps sound even louder than the Ogres`, it's definitely very strong.

Whoosh.

Not ten seconds after the monster appeared, a wind blade was already flying toward it. Gerda decided to attack first and inflict a serious wound on the "Bloody Berserker". The girl hoped to take advantage of the effect of surprise.

Whoosh.

The blade almost reached its target, but when there was less than a meter between it and the monster, the "Bloody Berserker" began to move.

It turned sharply and swung its black sword in a lightning flash, chopping the wind blade in two.

<It has done it so easily, as if it were not a spell but a simple gust of wind.> Evan thought, looking at the monster.

The young man was surprised at its strength. The Ogres could also block students' spells with their weapons, but not as quickly or easily.

Whoosh.

Immediately after the "Bloody Berserker" had destroyed the wind blade, it lunged toward Gerda, who at that moment was hiding behind a nearby root.

The monster's legs possessed incredible strength, and a small crater formed where it had just stepped.

Whoosh.

The monster like a crimson lightning, reached the girl. Gerda was frightened out of her wits and quickly cast a spell. A huge boulder appeared in the air and should have crushed the monster.

However, the "Bloody Berserker" had no intention of dodging. When the boulder was close enough, the monster struck it with its fist and crushed it into many small stones.

Whoosh.

The "Bloody Berserker" swung its sword smoothly and split the girl's arm.

Swing. Swing. Swing.

The monster struck several blows and the girl's entire body was scarred, with small but deep and bleeding cuts.

The "Bloody Berserker" fought against Gerda, but Evan saw something very strange in their fight.

<Why doesn't it kill her? Why is it inflicting so many non-lethal wounds on her? Judging by its strength and speed, it could easily pierce Gerda's body if it wanted to.>

While Evan was trying to make sense of the "Bloody Berserker`s" actions, the ground around Gerda was already drenched in blood, and the girl herself fell exhausted to the floor.

There was nothing she could do in front of the opponent, so superior to her in strength.

The "Bloody Berserker" raised its sword over the head and brought it down on Gerda. At the same moment, Golem appeared beside the girl and quickly carried her off the battlefield.

"Bitch..." Evan muttered slowly. He was shocked by the monster's actions.

As Gerda was carried away from the arena, the "Bloody Berserker" leaned over and began to drink the girl's blood.

According to Demien's stories about the monsters, Evan knew exactly what the "Bloody Berserker" was up to. Only now did he understand why it was necessary to inflict so many non-lethal wounds on Gerda.

Then Evan also understood something about monsters as well: <It seems that the stronger the monster is, the higher is its intelligence. The Ogres thought logically and destroyed the ice platform we were on. This one is even smarter, apparently, it specially tortured its victim in order to gain strength from her.>

Evan frowned and said loudly: "Damn! That girl`s just made it harder. I should have attacked it at once and not let it drink a drop of blood."

He was right when he`d thought the "Bloody Berserker" looked too skinny. The monster had been caught and weakened specifically for this test. With each drop of blood it drank, the "Bloody Berserker" would grow stronger, returning to its normal state.

Other monsters were also capable of becoming stronger by drinking human blood. But unlike the "Bloody Berserker", the Ogres and other monsters in the previous stages were not depleted.

At this point, the "Bloody Berserker" was like a hungry man who has very little strength because of it. If it ate enough, it would be at its best.

"Okay, on the other hand, it`s drunk not much blood. None of the remaining contestants will let it satisfy its hunger, at least I will hope so."

Evan said it and jumped off the root. He ran quickly toward Chloe and Lars. He was going to team up with them, because fighting against the "Bloody Berserker" alone was a huge mistake.

While the monster was busy drinking the last drops of Gerda's blood, they had time to team up and come up with a plan of action. What's more, until Gerda attacked the monster, the monster hadn`t even noticed anyone.

Whoosh.

The young man quickly made his way to Chloe and Lars.

Upon seeing Evan, the girl said with a smirk on her face: "What, have you come for help? Can't you attack and kill him yourself?"

Evan did not respond to Chloe's sneer and said with a smile: "I suggest to weaken this monster, and then decide who will finish it off, do you agree?"
