Chapter 336 – Ten Days In The Bastro Dimension (3)
Chwaaak! Whoosh!
The Ox Warrior’s chain wielded an ax on both ends, swinging alternately at Han-Yeol.
Bam!
Han-Yeol swiftly dodged, narrowly avoiding the ax by a hair’s breadth.
‘Tsk!’ he clicked his tongue in frustration.
He preferred avoiding conflict with the Bastrolings if possible, but standing idly while being attacked wasn’t his style. Moreover, the Bastroling attacking him wasn’t someone he knew, and his association with the Ox Warriors was limited.
‘I suppose I’ll have to adapt.’
Tak!
Landing on the ground, he immediately employed two skills he recently acquired in the cave.You can trace the roots of this content at n0v@lbin
‘Magma Longsword! Ice Blade![1]’
Chwaaak! Craaack!
The Magma Longsword and Ice Blade materialized in each of Han-Yeol's hands, emitting boiling and freezing sounds.
Unsatisfied with fighting using only one sword, Han-Yeol conjured another, the Ice Blade. He had initially considered his Light Exorcist Sword but abandoned the idea, fearing it might reveal his location. After all, hyenas instinctively detested the light attribute, making them likely sensitive to it.
[Ha! As expected of a filthy hyena! You might have all sorts of tricks up your sleeve, but they're useless!]
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The Ox Warrior swung his chain, then hurled one end toward Han-Yeol.
He appeared to manipulate the chain's trajectory by tugging it, much like Karvis did. This demonstrated the Ox Warrior's considerable skill.
‘Heup!’ Han-Yeol gasped, leaping to the side to evade the Ox Warrior’s chain.
Bam!
[You little rat!]
Chwak! Chwak!
The Ox Warrior retrieved his chain and lunged at Han-Yeol.
Tak!
‘A duel between dual-wielders...’ Han-Yeol pondered, realizing it had been a while since he last faced someone with a similar fighting style.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Han-Yeol, much smaller than the Ox Warrior, refused to yield an inch.
Whoosh!
The Ox Warrior put his full weight into each attack, swinging forcefully from top to bottom.
Claaang!
‘Keuk...! Oh, this guy’s quite strong,’ Han-Yeol thought, feeling a slight numbness in his hand after blocking an attack.
However, he remained relaxed; his recent increase in STR stat by one hundred prevented him from being easily pushed back.
Meanwhile, the Ox Warrior appeared slightly flustered. ‘He blocked my attack?’
Among creatures capable of contesting the Ox Warriors' strength, only the Bear Warriors stood a chance.
‘Wait, he doesn’t seem like a corrupted soldier, but why is he engaging in close combat?’
The Ox Warrior, not dense but discerning, could differentiate between corrupted and uncorrupted creatures. The Hyena Sorcerers typically fought alongside corrupted soldiers or cast curses from a distance due to their extreme vulnerability in close combat. Yet, the hyena currently facing him exhibited remarkable skill in close-quarter fighting.
[What? Are you done already?]
[What did you say?!]
That marked the end of the Ox Warrior’s train of thought.
Han-Yeol's provocation hit the mark; the Bastro Warriors were easily riled.
Huff! Huff!
The Ox Warrior snorted, and in that moment, Han-Yeol realized his mistake. ‘Oh, that was a blunder...’
His focus on the duel led him to provoke the Ox Warrior more than necessary.
“Mooooo!” bellowed the Ox Warrior, expelling air from its nostrils.
[Die! Hyena!]
Bam! Bam!
The Ox Warrior emanated an aura as imposing as his size, launching a barrage of attacks at Han-Yeol. Their weapons clashed, but the sounds weren't of sharpened steel; rather, they resembled large blunt hammers striking each other.
