Chapter 51


Chapter 51 Strongest Sage, Has Learned


The Arch Serpent was fully focused on me as it came a.s.saulting with its fangs on full display .


"KISHAAAAAA!"


While parrying the fangs of Arch Serpent that rushed in while screeching, I slash on it with my sword endowed with 【Acid-Proof】, 【Mana Strike】, and 【Steel Slash】 .


Its scales were extremely hard befitting of a 『Floor Master』 but I accurately aimed at a gap and cut off one piece of its scales .


The wound is just 50 cm big . For the Arch Serpent whose whole body is bigger than 10 meter, it"s just a scratch .


However, it"s enough .


The attack just now wasn"t intended to decrease its health, but to make the Arch Serpent recognize me as an enemy and lose its cool .


Due to its strength as a 『Floor Master』, the serpent is not used to getting injured .


Truthfully, my sword only worked on it because I concentrated my mana to hit its weakest spot which I discovered by probing into its mana flow .


I"d need 10 times that power to destroy the Arch Serpent"s scales through brute force .


Even the attack I used on the demon during the interpersonal match is likely still not enough .


"KISHA!"


Arch Serpent rushed at me in anger from its wound .


While dodging that using barrier as my footholds, I constructed a magic .


An extremely short-range flame magic the Fourth Crest is good at .


It hit the Arch Serpent"s weakness, the inside of its throat .


"GAAAAAAA!"


The Arch Serpent retreats in agonizing cry .


Of course, a Floor Master isn"t weak enough to be defeated by this level of magic .


However, it gets me time to construct my next magic .


I take out a magic stone from Storage magic and concentrate my mana into it .


Not delicate and small amount of mana like with augment magic . The augment I could do wouldn"t be able to even scratch the Arch Serpent .


It"s a magic not for turning magic stone into magic item, but one for destroying the inside of the magic stone .


A magic that I have never used before because it requires a great deal of mana and magic control .


The current me needs to concentrate all of my power on this one magic .


"KISHAAAAAAA!"


I crush the magic stone in front of the coming fangs .


A huge amount of mana and magic essence overflowed from the crushed magic stone .


I forcefully control that magic and clad my sword with flame elemental enchant .


【Special Mana Enchant】 .


It"s one of mystic arts for a sword-wielding magic combatant .


The Arch Serpent was about to bite me right when I completed the enchant .


I swing my sword down without trying to dodge it .


The Arch Serpent"s fangs were smashed, blood spilled out of a big wound .


However, it still hasn"t fallen .


"It sure is tough . . . . "


However, the Arch Serpent has suffered a huge damage, its movement becomes quite dull .


The next one should do it .


I crushed another magic stone and cut it down with the clad sword .


It"s still not downed . Then once again .


--After crushing three magic stones, I managed to cut off the Arch Serpent"s neck .


Soon after, the venom scattered on the ground disappeared .


Arch Serpent"s venom is composed of mana from the main body, so it will disappear if the main body is killed .


That said, the after effect of the venom remains .


--For example, like this .


"Oops . "


When I put my feet down on the floor after the battle, it sunk about 30 centimeter deep along with a dull sound .


Looks like the inside of the floor has been quite dissolved .


Well, since the battle had ended, it only managed to surprise me a bit .


"Now then . What am I gonna do with this . . . . "


I"m lost in thought before the Arch Serpent"s body .


I can stow it whole in Storage magic with my current mana .


However, if I do that, most of my maximum mana will be taken by Storage magic and I"d be forced to return .


Right when I was thinking of just taking some of its fangs--I recalled the merchant who bought the War Tiger I beat in my trip to Royal Capital .


I have learned from that time .


Materials of monsters that I think aren"t really valuable are highly prized in the world today .


These might fetch a good price if I brought them back and sold them on the guild or some material shop around . Yep . I"m sure of it .


While thinking what I"m going to do with all the cash I"m piling up, I put the Arch Serpent"s body into Storage magic, and went back to floor 10 .


The Camp magic is . . . . Yep . It seems to be working fine .
