Awakened: Evolving to Godhood

Only an instant passed before cracks appeared all over its body.

It looked like a crumbling mountain.

Elliot did not doubt that it would move on to the afterlife soon.

It wanted to take him down with it, so it attacked him more aggressively than ever.

[Heroic shield]

Elliot created a golden shield and pushed it towards its fist.

It was bigger than him but not as strong as him.

Its blow failed to shatter the shield, which bounced back its fist and smashed into its chest, nearly throwing it off its feet.

It stabilized itself and waved its hands at Elliot with such speed that its hands left behind afterimages.

'So it has not been using its full strength.' Elliot thought as his eyes narrowed and a thoughtful look appeared on his face, indicating that he was planning something.

He was trying to come up with a way to end it for good.

First, he must avoid getting hit by it.

[You've activated instant acceleration!]

It was attacking Elliot endlessly, but he kept running out of the trajectory of its attacks.

He managed to avoid all its attacks.

[You're becoming tired]

Moving at such a speed was straining his muscles.

[You've consumed a point of stamina!]

[You've increased your speed!]

[You've consumed four points of stamina]

Elliot could see that instant acceleration was extremely taxing on his stamina and energy.

'I have to end the battle soon.'

Elliot's eyes turned towards the giant.

"You're already too late."

Elliot said as he dodged its slap.

"Even by going all out now, you will fail to change your fate." He added those words in a taunting voice as he exchanged blows with the Apex Hill Giant.

Every single time their fists met, a huge shockwave would manifest in the point of impact and surge outwards, uprooting everything in its way.

"I don't care. What I want is to fight you till my last breath."

In truth, only now that it was going to die that it started to fight for real.

As a warrior, the Apex Hill Giant wanted to die fighting to the fullest.

If Elliot managed to amuse it, well, it will end well for him.

If not, Elliot will fall with him and become one of the many corpses scattered on the ground of the unholy necropolis.

It failed to realize that Elliot had not been fighting with it seriously.

Elliot exhaled a deep breath as he glared at it with fierce eyes and said, "Since you dare to walk towards hell, I will help push you to its depth beforehand."

Elliot moved away from it, and it chased after him.

"I will leave her in your care."

Elliot left behind these words for the sublime emperor.

"Don't worry about her."

Zerrick was far away from him, but his voice still reached his ears.

"With me defending her, no one can leave even a scratch on her." He added in a confident voice.

<br/>He was the strongest

"Stop running like a rat and face me like a man!"

The Apex Hill Giant felt frustrated with how easily and shamelessly he was running away from it.

Thus, he shouted out his frustration.

Elliot grinned at it, and instead of saying, 'if you're so capable, try and catch me,' he said, "As you wish."

He wasn't here to play a game of mouse and cat with it.

Thus, he wasted no time taunting it.

Elliot activated two times instant acceleration.

His overwhelming speed doubled, and he became so fast that he managed to weave through its attack and bridge the distance between them in three seconds.

He appeared next to its huge eye in an instant.

Then, he balled his hand into a fist and punched out, and hit it right in its eye.

The force behind his fist was extremely terrifying as it exploded its eye.

"Gah!" It roared in pain as Elliot dived down and kicked its legs.

It tilted backward.

Elliot launched himself like an arrow and smashed both his feet on its stomach.

His attack titled it so much that it lost balance and fell on its back with a loud sound.

It made the mistake of underestimating Elliot, and he abused its naiveness to the fullest to land a killing blow on it.

[Great Divine Sword!]

He conjured a 15 meter tall, shiny sword and stabbed its sharpness into its chest.

The sword was sharp, and he had imbued his mana into it to increase its sharpness, so it cut into its flesh easily.

The sword stabbed into its heart before protruding out of its back.

Its red and hot blood spurted out of the fresh severe wounds on its body and splashed on Elliot and the ground.

"Don't think you've won so soon." It roared as it intertwined its fingers and brought its massive fists towards Elliot. "I'm still not done yet."

'No, you're done.'

Elliot's eyes brightened up in a profound light as a massive amount of golden energy rushed out of him.

"Lay dead."

The size of Elliot's sword increased by two times as he poured an immense amount of life into it.

The moment it grew far bigger than its original size, he swung it upward.

Its sharp edges tore it into two pieces.

Its body split into two parts, and each piece of its body squirted liters of blood as they fell to the ground.

Its blood dyed the air and the ground red.

[You've defeated a high-level monster lord!]

[You've consumed its essence of life, gaining +1.5 million units.]

[You've turned the Golden Divine Sword into the essence of life, which you reabsorbed.]

[+1 million essence of life!]

His total units of the essence of life reached 4 million.

It had sturdy bones, and Elliot was sure that they were good enough for him to treat them as rare-grade materials.

He stored its entire body into his subspace.

His island, which was as big as a small island, had enough space inside it to keep the big corpse of the Apex Hill Giant.

Elliot turned around to look at the gates that it had so valiantly defended.

"Now, only the spider queen remains!"
