Chapter 469: [ Monster King Duel Finale ( part 3 ) ]
Above the creatures pathetically crawling on the ground, a battle that which they had never seen the likes before was currently happening.
Inside the battlefield which was filled with dust and dirt floating in the air, they could see the enormous Magma Bodied Tiger King—a dark clawed hand the size of a boulder.
His angry roar rolled across the dimension like a nuclear blast. Allen, the Human King, on the other hand, was extremely small in comparison to its size--he just looked like a speck of light or a tiny flash of light.
On the horrors of those who were watching, they realized that the enormous enraged Tiger King seemed to be trying to swat Allen like a tiny mosquito.
However, the courageous tiny King wasn’t the least bit intimidated as he gracefully darted through the clouds, circling it. He shot bolts of golden lightning at it, spewing ice cold flames, slicing the black obsidian sword he was holding, creating beautiful arcs of lights that light the dim sky, making the Tiger King, even more, angrier as it chased and chased like a mad beast!
The Human King who seemed extremely significant compared to the Tiger King was vicious and scary as hell, as he keeps on summoning specter and ghosts as well towards the Monster King, that would sometimes explode when it touched its body.
The transformed Tiger King was almost as large as Zaku. Waving its huge claws and blazing tail, it roared angrily like a thundering wild beast. It smashed the trees and plants into powder and cracked the ground, causing an earthquake that shakes the entire forest.
It was truly terrifying as if horror-monster mixed movies suddenly came alive.
Skeletons and corpses straddled the Tiger King’s back, chomping down again and again with their bony and rotten jaws, almost looking like a really scary horror movie. However, they didn't seem to bother the Monster King that much as it just swats them with its burning wings from the mixture of magma and lava.

It didn't work!? These magma rocks are tough!!
“Damn it!!” Allen cursed in annoyance as he evaded Hanjin’s counter-attacks while trying to get into his blind spot again without separating from the turtle-like Monster King. Parting with Hanjin this moment would only put him at a disadvantage for both attacking and defending.
"You disgusting bug!!" Hanjin roared.
Allen repeatedly dodged from Hanjin’s claws and fire attacks while attacking from time to time. However, each of his attacks was blocked by its incredible defense like it was nothing. Since they would be at a standstill like this… Allen thought of an idea…
No matter how strong and powerful it was, since it was a living creature, Hanjin’s nerves should operate through electrical signals like any creatures—right?
Then, striking it with a powerful enough electromagnetic field should be able to keep it from moving properly. If he aimed for the cerebellum or cerebrum, he might even be able to knock it unconscious.
However, doing it normally is useless. He had been trying to electrocute the bastard to death and yet—because of its steel-like defense, his lightning doesn’t do much damage!
But—what if the electricity past through open wounds…?
Allen smiled coldly.
The white flame wings behind Allen shone brightly and then, when they flapped inwardly, dozens of white light shot white fireballs with the size of a fist towards Hanjin.
The speed of the fireballs was the speed of light; by the time you could see the attack, it had already hit. No matter how mobile Hanjin was, it wouldn't be able to dodge that.
“ROAAAAAAARR!”
The fireballs burned the blazing magma-like body of Hanjin. Still, as he had expected, Hanjin’s incredible defense blocked most of the attack.
“Taaaaakeeeee thiiiiisss!!”
Seeing Hanjin halted his movements for a moment because of the attack, Allen flashed like lightning just above the monster. He then thrust Rebellion out in front of him. Since he was already up close, the very next moment, Allen’s sword assaulted Hanjin.
The sword itself was repelled by the magma defense of its body, but the electromagnetic field passed through. As the sword pierced Hanjin’s skin a bit, lightning struck.
“How about thiiiiiiss!!”
Bang!!
With Allen’s body acting like a lightning rod, the lightning that had struck from the sky passed through him and then run towards the sword.
The moment the lightning reached Hanjin’s body, Allen’s pupils narrowed. Several black tentacles wriggled from behind him and hen coiled themselves around Hanjin’s body as if stopping from leaving. As he did, magic power, began flowing into his left arm and amplify the lightning power, which in turn created a very big electric potential difference between the tip of the sword and Hanjin’s body.
A bright golden flash prevented Allen from seeing anything. At the same time, a sharp sound, as if someone cracked a whip, shook the atmosphere.
Though it might have sounded like a whip, it was much, much louder. It was the sound of a huge current flowing into Hanjin because of the potential difference.
“ROAAAAAAAAAAAAR!”
The thunderbolt created by Allen struck Hanjin and ran through its body by passing through Allen’s sword into the inside of its body. This attack was effective even against Hanjin, especially since it had hit where Hanjin’s nerves were gathered.

As a result, Hanjin lost control of its body in an instant.
“Uwaaah!!”
The only miscalculation had been was that Allen had been unable to dodge Hanjin’s fiery and massive tail. He had been unable to dodge it as it had happened too fast—probably due to the sudden pain that had assaulted it, it moved by reflex.
“Damn it!!”
Allen was struck by the massive tail and was sent flying, spinning out of control. BOOM!! Allen spread his wings and forcibly stabilized his body.
“Damn you!!!”
The thunderbolt from before hadn't been enough to defeat Hanjinot immobilize him as what he had expected. Now it had recovered and spewed out flames aimed at him in midair. In an instant, Allen began accelerating and decelerating irregularly and dodged the flames. Using his [ Phantom ] his figure appeared like a ghost, creating afterimages which were then struck by the flames and disappeared.
This time, due to fury, Hanjin attacked with one of his hands, which grew from its body. three, four blazing claws appeared, protruding from its shoulders, all made up of blazing magmas and flames as it chased towards Allen’s figure, wanting to tear him apart.
Huge hands enhanced with long claws attacked with a wide range and an unfathomable attack rate despite its size.
The impact was like a collision with a large truck at full speed. Allen now had a difficulty completely evading them, thus, he raised Rebellion to protect himself.
The blow was stunning fast, the scratching of metals caused scatterings of dazzling sparks.
Allen superbly parried Lightning attack claws with Rebellion. To fend off such an attack without using combat techniques, for ordinary people it was unheard of skill level. In the wake of the first strike, a second claw came swinging from Hanjin.
It was a blow, much stronger and faster than the previous one, but it was also easily parried. And without wasting a moment, it was followed by 3, 4, 5 attacks, merging into a continuous series of strokes.
However, Allen had parried all of them with Rebellion.
“You are nothing—Hanjin! This pointless playing around,” Allen muttered coldly. Without any warning, a lightning bolt appeared in the blue, cloudless sky. It shot down toward Hanjin at incredible speed, seemingly giving no chance at all for a reaction. The lightning bolt slammed onto Hanjin’s body with a boom.
“I told you before, I don’t have time to deal with you… let’s get this over with quickly,”
As he said that, the lightning mist appeared around him. At the moment, the temperature seemed to be undergoing another bizarre transformation. As it spread out, thunder crashed up above in the sky.
The lightning mist seemed to be affecting the clouds, causing them to congregate as if lightning would begin to crash down at any moment. It seemed that the area around Allen would soon become a sea of lightning!
The mist had turned into dark clouds expanded, and then the lightning crashed down; roaring filled the sky. The instant the volcanic trees and Lava Rivers were touched by the lightning, they exploded into fragments.
Lightning fell continuously; there were some creatures on the ground who couldn’t avoid it. That was especially true of those monsters surrounding Allen’s tamed beasts. Each lightning bolt contained incredible power. Even though they were of the Emperor realm, if things kept up as they were, they wouldn’t be able to take it and would certainly die pitifully.
The roughly one thousand surviving monsters howled continuously amongst the roaring of the thunder. They then started escaping and looking for places that could hide them from the lightning strikes.
In this, Allen completely ignored.
“Even a Buddha can get mad—much less a demon, Hanjin! You’re going to dieee!!” Allen took a deep breath as a look of concentration filled his face. Now the true thunderstorm was to begin. This was because the Lightning was no longer pure golden; now it contained an additional color.
It could be described as abstruse and deep blue with the hint of red!
Abstruse, bluish-red lightning!
Each bolt now had doubly destructive power. As it roared down, Allen could see that within the red and blue was an incredible power of annihilation. He lifted his right hand into the air, “Die!!” and swung it towards Hanjin’s direction.
At that moment, lightning bolts one after another broke through from the dark clouds and struck Hanjin repeatedly. The ground underneath them was thoroughly destroyed, and much of it had crystallized. It looked like blackish-red gems, horrible and fearsome in appearance.
“This is not enough to kill me!! You shall be the one to die, you hateful maggot!!!”
As the lightning continued to rain down, occasionally, angry roars would rise up.
The killing intent in Allen’s eyes grew even stronger. His body flickered as he shot toward Hanjin, raising Rebellion into the air.
“Thunder!” He called out only the one word, but the instant he did, the color of his sword changed into golden. Countless golden lightning bolts surrounded it, and it emanated a shocking and terrifying mana that caused Hanjin’s scalp to go numb.
The speed with which Allen approached caused Hanjin’s heart to fill with an intense sense of crisis. He had not experienced such a feeling even when fighting against Butterfly Mother just now. In fact, it had been a very long time since he had experienced such a crushing pressure from anyone with a level lower than him.
“DIE!” cried Allen, his voice echoing out in all directions as he neared Hanjin.
At this moment, Hanjin could feel Allen’s cold and severe murderous aura quite clearly. And, this sobered his raging mind. He could sense that an extremely dangerous attack was coming. In fact, his subconscious mind prompted him to put all his strength to defend.
“Even if you are the one who picked a fight, you fight like a wuss!” Allen didn’t forget to add oil in Hanjin’s already burning mind.
Once again, Allen had come face to face with his opponent. Moreover, he was smiling at Hanjin with his glistening teeth. His white teeth glittered faintly. They resembled the faint flash that is seen in the eyes of a hungry wolf on a cold winter’s night.
He took a step forward, then transformed into a white mist, within which was a silver crescent moon. He then slashed the sword without hesitation.
Strong aura whistled from Allen’s sword as if covering the sky. It’s as if the blade of Rebellion carried enough strength to crush a mountain to rubble. And, it rushed forward towards Hanjin with a rumble. The aura converged in the sword. It covered everything and crashed down.
“Orraaaaahhhhh!!!!”
A boom could be heard. Hanjin tried to block it with his body as he exerted more power to harden his body causing a fiery glow appeared around him. However, the fiery glow immediately collapsed, as Allen’s full force blow slashed into it.
An enormous blast radiated out.
The sword hummed and shook, slamming into Hanjin’s body. Pain filled his body, and he flopped backward like a kite with its string cut, blood spraying from his mouth.
However, Hanjin’s carapace-like armor was extremely durable and the damage created was just a small fraction of Allen’s attack. “A wuss…? Ha! Says the one who is weak! Weak maggots like you pretending to be strong don’t have a place in this world!! You will only become the food that nourishes the strong!!”
“… …”
“And that is me!!!” Hanjin roared as he took a step forward and jumped. His blazing claws screeched as they sliced through the air towards Allen’s head.
“So it’s only right to offer your life to me! Because you are weak!!”
“I have always known that life is a struggle for survival! The strong life and the weak dies… but who can determine who was weak and who is strong?! You—?!!” Allen smiled coldly.
“… …!!?”
