Versatile: Alternate World Chapter 142
Advertisement
Due to the unexpected appearance of Golgoch, the quest log of Dolly and Harmless Sparrow updated based on the current predicament. Since the quest cannot be shared, I didn't see the content of their quest.
"Seriously? Do we have to defeat those two to complete the quest?! Isn't that impossible?!" Dolly is now feeling confused and worried seeing the new quest log for them.
"Are you girls serious? You worried about them defeating you gals? They are just a bunch of weaklings so why get worried about them? Just whack them with the magic spells you got and if you guys run out of mana to use, then use your weapons to whack their skulls down!" Queen Tanya said without batting an eye.
The two didn't expect Queen Tanya's words. I laughed dryly and explained it to them.
"You guys should get used to it, her words might be brutal as hell but she can back up everything she just said with her actions."
"What the hell, are you serious with this Bladeheart?" Dolly felt it was ridiculous right from the very beginning.
"No time to complain, guys! They are coming!"
Golgoch is charging at us with his double-edged ax and slams it down to the ground causing shockwaves that travel towards us on the ground.
We quickly dodged it but the girls didn't anticipate the next attack that came from Beraka who is acting as the support of Golgoch who is acting as the main tank. The lightning attack that was hurled towards Dolly and Harmless Sparrow was strong enough that they were stunned after the attack landed on them.
"Ack! We can't move!"
I didn't wait for their stun to went off and cast the spell of the cleric [Cleanse] and also used [Heal] on them, allowing them to move again before they get hit by Golgoch who was about to smash them to a pulp.

"Keep sharp guys! We can't afford you guys to die here!" I shouted to them.
"Thanks for the save!" Harmless Sparrow said before she imbued her weapon with Fire Element.
"Damn you! You dare hit a girl, I will turn you to a barbecue lizard!" Dolly extends both hands and conjured two fireballs on her hands and repeatedly unleashes them at the two lizardmen
Beraka has to avoid the fireball as he will explode into flames once he gets hit on it, though it is the opposite on Golgoch as he faces them head-on without care for them.
"Don't waste your mana on Golgoch! Focus the barrage on Beraka instead!" I shouted.
Queen Tanya is taking care of the minions so we can't rely on her to do damage against the enemies.
"Taste the lightning bolt from Master Serbal's might!" Beraka raises his spear and a bolt of lightning suddenly strikes down to his spear, imbuing it with electricity.
To someone busy against the minions to bother on Beraka, stopping him from getting his weapon getting strong is not possible, however, it is different for us.
"As if I will let you!" I moved forward and sliced on Beraka's hands, causing him to drop the weapon he was trying to charge with lightning.
The moment my weapon cut off Beraka's hands, my Versatile Weapon suddenly started flashing, and the button of the [Devour] suddenly appeared.
'This kind of thing is possible?!'
I grinned inwardly and before Beraka can grab his chopped-off hand, I execute the command to my Versatile Weapon.
"[DEVOUR]!"
My Versatile Weapon started wriggling and its dark aura emerged and its dragon-like shadow emerged.
"What is that thing?!" Beraka didn't expect the appearance of the dragon-like shadow out of thin air.

[ROAAAAAAAAARRRRR!]
In one single swoop, it suddenly opened its mouth and took a bite on the hand that was just recently cut off from the arms of Beraka. In just a split second it separated from him, it also took that long for it to disappear forever alongside the spear that he prized the most.
It was a very unexpected thing since my Versatile Weapon didn't just devour the weapon alone but also the dismembered hands of Beraka. My weapon burps before it returned to its normal unconscious state.
"My arm! Give me back my arm and spear!" Beraka shouted as his face is in despair after witnessing them disappear in one go.
"Finder's keepers! If you let the damn thing go, then I will be picking it up and it is officially mine."
Due to his shock, he didn't notice someone behind him has already sneaked in. Before he can even react, a flaming sword successfully tore through his scales that he is taking a pride in.
"W-what?"
"Golgoch is busy fighting with the scythe woman and my friend so I took the liberty of taking the bounty from your head," Harmless Sparrow then pushed the Burning Sword to his chest and pulled it upwards. His HP is falling rapidly and once it was drained and reduced to zero, Harmless Sparrow cut Beraka's body in half.
I am still surprised by the realism of this game that the monster's guts are shown without any sensor.
"Now we only have Golgoch to kill," Harmless Sparrow said.
...
Golgoch is also having a hard time against the two. If he targets the Magician, the Scythe Wielding woman will immediately destroy and melt his armor like nothing. If he focuses his target on the Scythe Wielder, he is more likely to die since fighting head-on with her is clear suicide. He is in a dilemma.
"I came here to bolster my power to raise my abilities and kill Beraka once I get stronger. But what is this... why am I being pushed back?!"
His helm fell after a fireball hit his broken helm revealing his face. He growled to the two but the scythe wielder just grinned and swings the scythe into his head. It took him a few seconds to realize what just happened to him and why his vision suddenly tumbles upside down as he saw his body remaining still on the ground while his head fell to the ground.
"Subjugation Complete," Queen Tanya said as she took the soul of Golgoch out of his lifeless body.
