Requiem Of A Failed Hero

Chapter 75 The Golem Dungeon (2)



The sound of stone on stone echoed across the deserts as both sides strongly collided. At first, the shadow soldiers were sloppy and couldn't take too many hits before dying.

But every time they respawned was an evolution to their battle sense and as the battle dragged out the shadow soldiers were already being on the same footing with the golems.

Not to say that they had something in common with their master.

Yes, their strength and ability are not defined by how many monsters they kill, it all depends on how many times they got killed. Just like their master...

Raith looked at the shadow soldiers' profile information as they ceaselessly fight. With their massive weapons striking the golems with great force. They were fast and agile, darting in and out of the golems' reach and striking from unexpected angles.

The battlefield seemed to be coming to an end with Cheche wielding his massive sledgehammer and charging forward, cutting a swath through the golems with his powerful blows. The rest of the shadow soldiers followed close behind, with their weapons clashing deep into the golems' stone bodies.

[You have exhausted your shadow energy]

[Shadow summons shall return to the darkness]

It didn't matter how far they were from him, a string of darkness pulled all of them into his shadows. And the whole place that was filled with clanging and smashing was immediately silent.

The rest of the golems turned to the single man that stood alone amidst the wide desert.

'Twenty-five minutes is the best that they can go with the shadow energy that I have now.' Raith looked at his hand.

'I have to level up more, find more shadow energies which means I have to die more huh...' Raith closed his eyes as he thought of how much he needed to die just to reach level 100.

It just wouldn't stop, no matter how much he grew stronger, if he wanted to get stronger it was necessary that he fell at the hands of monsters and foes, over and over again.

"Hmm..." He looked like he was settling with that harsh reality, and very calmly.

"But I have to release some stress first." He grunted as he cracked his knuckles, preparing himself for the golems that were towering over him with their rocky frames.

Just as he concluded being ready on his own path, the golems charged forward, with their massive feets slamming into the ground with each step. Raith dodged to the side, narrowly avoiding the first attack. He lunged forward, aiming a punch at the golem's midsection. His fist connected with a resounding thud, but the golem barely seemed to notice.

"Hoho..." Raith hopped back a few steps as he was amazed at the golem's amazing body. But he was confident he could take care of this with his bare fist.

[Your skill Proficiency has increased]

[Skill 'Transcendent Sense' has leveled up]

And it has been a while since he used it.

He narrowed his eyes and darted into the group of golems, circling them with a crazy lightning speed that only left behind purple streaks as they flew around, his image was almost blurry as he didn't put a stop to his race and scanned keenly for an opening. Just when he was getting faster, a thread attack suddenly connected to the golems' back, Raith's eyes settled on a small crack that the thread of attack flow from [Transcendent sense] lead him to.

'It is definitely because of the level up... something has changed with the skill' While he was preoccupied with that thought he gave no room for a slip-up, with a grin, he charged forward, launching himself into the air.

He somersaulted over the golem's head, driving his fist into the crack in the golem's back landed.

The force of his attack created an incredible shock that all the golem's body parts exploded off and scattered around the desert.

The rest of the golems that were just robotically charged at him suddenly paused.

"A change in reaction?" Raith looked at all of them with a keen gaze, tightening his fist as they looked at him. Their hollow eyes suddenly began to release a red glow.

"Something is different." Raith could tell immediately.

The golems looked down but they stared at the tall one in front, the one closest to Raith.

BEEEEMMMMMcontemporary romance

Its eyes began to flame up with beams and–

BWWWOOOOOMMPPPP

It shot laser beams right through its eyes, fat red beams that pierced the distance and reach Raith in less than 0.3 seconds.

But it was being blocked by an even crazier defense as it split off into different directions as Raith's black armor blocked it, turning his body to black which fit perfectly with the shadow helmet.

Raith looked at the burning beam on his chest as it desperately tried to pass through him but was being effortlessly delayed.

"It's fine... I understand..." He mumbled, sobbing, "I'll let you kill... I will be your Romeo to your Juliet." Raith looked at the furious beam-shooting golem, stretching his hands toward the air like a melodramatic protagonist who is about to die for love.

[Deactivating Black Armor]

The beam of light pulverized through Raith, leaving a steaming hot hole inside of him as if a pot of lava had been passed through him.

Raith's body slowly flopped to the ground and blood soon filed everywhere.

[You have died]

[Level Up]

[You have gained +4 stat points]

[Level Up]

[You have gained +4 stat points]

[Due to title effect 'One that devours death']

[You will be revived]

"Ha, that was crazy." Raith looked at his belly and the round tear that was left on his clothes. "Shit, I should create a list of how I want to die and be living them out... but since I'm dying I can say, dying then out." Raith giggled as got back to his feet putting the rank B monsters in a shot daze.

The golems roared in anger, and charged toward him, lighting his face with a confident smirk. He darted between the golems, weaving in and out of their strikes. With each punch, he chipped away at their rocky exteriors, leaving cracks in their stony skin.

It was until when he paused behind a few of them that it was seen that this wasn't just an ordinary punch. The golems he touched were all being reduced to lava.

What? Did you forget we had that skill?
