[801-1000] THE EVOLUTION OF A GOBLIN TO THE PEAK

Chapter 944 Battle at the Selnes Country: Crimson Twilight Emperor

"Damn it!" Man-Eating Tamer cursed under his breath. He had just diverted some of his minions to obstruct Shen Yao and Adel's assault. Despite the abundance of minions at his disposal, their numbers were not infinite.

Frantically, he gestured and dispatched yet another group of monsters to impede Souta's advance.

"Stop him at all costs!" his voice rang out desperately.

Souta discerned the note of desperation in Man-Eating Tamer's voice. Paente had been engaged in a prolonged confrontation with this guy. During that time, while Souta was occupied fighting Boulder Jack, Man-Eating Tamer had expended an enormous number of monsters. He must be nearing his limit.

"You're going to die today," Souta declared in a cold, resolute tone.

Seven shadowy figures arose from his form and intercepted the charging monsters, providing a diversion. Seizing the opportunity, Souta swiftly maneuvered past the entangled creatures, making a beeline straight for Man-Eating Tamer.

Red lightning crackled around Souta's form, while ten black spheres materialized on his back.

"Don't push me, Blood Lightning Monster!" Man-Eating Tamer bellowed furiously, unleashing his final minions.

In response, Souta lunged forward with his sword, unleashing a burst of energy as the red lightning expanded like a spreading net.

Swoosh!

The formidable lightning engulfed the fourth-stage monsters, hurtling forward and culminating in a colossal explosion.

Boom!

Emerging from the billowing smoke, Man-Eating Tamer coughed up copious amounts of blood, suddenly feeling a shiver down his spine. Reacting swiftly, he dodged to the side.

However, Souta had already moved behind him, his sword slicing through Man-Eating Tamer's right arm in a swift motion. The severed limb spun through the air, splattering blood in all directions.

"Weak," Souta declared, his left hand opening to release several strands of web that ensnared Man-Eating Tamer's chest. In an instant, he forcefully drew Man-Eating Tamer closer.

"Without your minions, you're nothing compared to Boulder Jack," Souta asserted, thrusting his sword through Man-Eating Tamer's defenses. "In a one-on-one fight, you stand no chance against me. Your odds of winning are zero."

"Ugh!" Man-Eating Tamer spat blood, gazing up at Souta in disbelief. Attempting to speak, he struggled, "H-How... my most powerful minion... no one..."

Without waiting for Man-Eating Tamer to finish, Souta withdrew his sword and forcefully kicked him to the ground.

"Did you know what they called me before?" Souta's voice reverberated as Man-Eating Tamer tried to recall. "M-Master Hydra..."

Souta turned away, observing the ongoing battle between the Nine-Headed Hydra and the Earth Drill Centipede.

"Behold the death of the monster you've enslaved. You're a formidable tamer, but most of the creatures under your command lack depth. You've stripped them of their intelligence, reducing them to mere golems incapable of executing intricate commands," Souta stated with a crack of his neck. His presence became a crimson blur as he ascended into the sky within moments, radiating an unprecedented level of energy.

"It's here," he murmured, taking in a deep breath. A surge of tremendous energy coursed through him, fully revitalizing his stamina and power as the Tears of Divine Might restored him.

"Since the effects of the [Emperor's Blessing] persist, might as well use it to kill a fifth-stage monster."

It wasn't solely the [Emperor's Blessing]; the effects of the [Yin-Yang Unification] hasn't disappeared too, Man-Eating Tamer never stood a chance against him. Even if Man-Eating Tamer rivaled Nine Yin's strength, Souta would still triumph over him.
