' This is bad, extremely bad.

Rob has been able to hold up his own against the giant, but the problem is that the giant had only used his physical strength uptil now, if he uses his magic then we are done for! Damn it! ' Ryan thought as he smashed his fist on the ground.

"Isn't there anyway to escape from this situation, and we had already used those communication stones earlier when we called for Rob; and thanks to these damned walls we can't even run. " Ryan shouted.

" Run?

What none sense are you spouting, just let me go and I will teach that big bastard a good lesson." Jenny said as she used her hands trying to get away from the hold of those chains made from magic while she repeatedly said " let me go! "

" Jenny shut up!

Can't you see that you are no match for that guy?

You will die in just a matter of seconds just like that guy." Ryan replied.

" What do you even mean by that!?

How can you live the rest of your life knowing that you had killed someone?" Jenny replied.

The two continued their argument while Rob tried to finish that thing for good. Rob was an excellent swordsman and a veteran, therefore he knew a great ton of techniques and even though he was not that strong against the giant but he was able to hold his own against that giant, but the price was not cheap and all those buff techniques especially that skill known as ' The blood of ancestors ' were now taking a toll on his body.

He could feel every single bone in his body crying in pain and making it painfully clear that he won't last long.

He tightened his grip and jumped towards the giant. The giant roared and swing it's axes and this time he striked him with his real power indicating that the play time is over now.

* CLANK *

* CLANK *

Just after a couple of exchanges Rob could feel his hands going numb due to the impact; the last strike was enough to stun him in the mid air.

* BAMMM *

Before Rob could even get out of his stunned state, he took a direct hit by the blunt side of the axe. The strike was as strong as the one he landed on Dante earlier, but his body is not as strong as either the holy sword or Dante.

* BUMMM *

Rob crashed on the ground hard and the ground was destroyed in the shape of his body where he crashed.

""" ROB!! """

Seeing Rob took a heavy hit and then crashing into the floor, the three of them cried his name in concern and approached him. They saw Rob in a really bad shape, his armor was completely destroyed near the chest area and they could see blood coming out of the armor he had worn.

* cough *

' He is even coughing up black blood!

This means he has a broken rib cage!' Ryan thought as his mind sunk because now after the defeat of Rob their death was certain. He looked around and saw his sister Veronica who was crying even more louder and Jenny who was just following her usual muscle headed nature - trying to avenge Rob. He started thinking of various plans but before he could even come up with something, he sensed a huge amount magic.

All of them looked towards the giant even the injured one was looking at the giant with a single swollen eye . A terrifying amount of magic was being condensed by the giant in his axes, the axes started glittering in an ice white colour and one could see some low level runes on the axes glowing in an ice white colour.

Seeing this scene to unfold everyone was now sweating and they were preparing themselves for the upcoming death. Ryan's expression was that of awe and fear as being one of the top wizards he could clearly feel the amount of energy in those axes and was sure of one thing and that is : this a S -league monster, monsters which could only be heard about in tales of an old adventurer. Rob was quite happy for he was satisfied that he wont be killed by someone weak and treacherous, rather he will be killed by a S - league monster, but at the same time he was really upset due to the fact that he wasn't able to protect them and had failed a duty given to him by His majesty.

" Ryan, Jenny and beautiful Veronica; I am really sorry for not being able to protect you people. I have failed you. " Rob said.

After listening to him Veronica started crying even louder while Jenny said " where are the honours? I am going to punish you when we get back. " as she still struggled with those chains, and " You did a great job, Rob. The Kingdom is proud of you. " Ryan said with a tone of the king. " I love you all." Ryan said those words with honesty and hugged his two sisters as he had clearly given up on surviving this attack . Veronica hugged him back and cried on his shoulder while Jenny still didn't wanted to accept their faith and believed that she could solve this with power, as the white light from the axes fell upon them Ryan closed his eyes and welcomed the impending death.

* SHHHUUUUKKKKK *

The earth first shook, founding it weird that the giant had still not used his attack, everyone opened their eyes and what they saw was straight out of a nightmare. All the four arms of the giant including the axes were cut off ,with an irregular cut, from the main body, it seemed more like that they were bitten off. They could see the veins, muscles and even some bones to be coming out of those areas which were once the joints of his shoulders and arms along with the blood which flowed without stopping.

* ROARR *

The giant growled in pain.

They were so surprised by this sudden change that they were not even able to utter a single word and just watched the giant with their mouths opened. They looked here and there to figure out what happened; they saw a huge hole in the ice wall and from there they could see a path ,which was formed by destruction of ground and trees, leading to the giant, but the path didn't stopped right there and it looked like the giant was just a roadblock , they traced the path with their eyes and just where the path ends they saw a familiar boy with black and red hair and they saw a mysterious red fluid surrounding his right hand to slowly disappear. The dust around him slowly dissipated and what it revealed was truly horrifying.

The entire area around that boy was covered with blood, and one could even see broken big chunks of bones and muscles, there were even some metal pieces laying there covered with blood and those runes on them still glowed.

The giant continued to roar in pain as more and more blood came out of those wounds, suddenly the blood vessels and the muscles around that area started swelling and transformed into a sack, it became bigger and bigger and it looked as if it was going to burst at any moment.

* KACHHHH *

The sack burst while throwing a blue liquid in every single direction and new four arms came out of that sack. The new arms looked much more muscular and one could feel their heat being absorbed by it and in return it was giving coldness.

Dante turned around towards the giant.

Something was different with him, as before he was summoned, in his previous world Dante neither had experience in killing nor he did anything even related to martial arts, maybe this could be answered by looking in his eyes. His eyes were turned a little red and both of his iris started shifting to the left and right direction respective to the position of that eye. This process was giving him a really bad headache and he could feel his consiousness slowly fading away . Dante pressed the back of his head with both of his hands due to pain and the strength with which he was pressing his head kept on increasing as the pain did, then suddenly he heard a tempting whisper in his ear which said ' Just leave it to me. '

As if Dante was ready to leave this all to that guy who was the owner of this voice Dante let go his strength and his conciousness went into deep sleep. His body stood there and was now covered with a really dim glow of golden aura, so dim that one cannot see it with normal eyes, speaking of eyes his iris shifted back to their original positions and were turned black again with a little golden to it. The aura was giving off a godly presence but it was so low that others couldn't notice it.

The group again turned their look on Dante and the first thing they saw was his face, with just a look of it they remembered this kid, seeing him Veronica and Jenny felt a bit relaxed on the fact he wasn't dead, while the others were shocked to see him, as it was clear to them and painfully cleared to Rob that no human can survive that blow without death, even if they were heroes they would have atleast took a wound, but , leaving unscathed after such an impact was just unbelievable, not only that but Rob also felt something really off about this kid , whenever he looked into the eyes of that kid he couldn't help but remember about the eyes of the legendary hero who was the one who defeated the demons in the first war and Dante's presence is almost similar to that of that hero.

* ROARRR *

The giant tightened his muscles as the veins on them were now even more visible then before, seemingly the giant was going nuts because of the earlier attack. He started running towards Dante at his full speed and it seems like the giant has not felt that presence yet.

* THAD *

The ground shook after his each step and the time gap between each of the shake was decreasing as the giant speed up and just before reaching him, the giant punched him with his top right fist.

The consiousness ,which had took over Dante, looked around and his golden eyes were fixed on that monster , as it tried to punch Dante, he jumped towards the giant and with a right hand of his own, he took the attack head on.

* BAMM *

* CRACK *

In front of that right hand ,which was covered with a godly aura, the giant' s punch was not even able to put up a struggle before it was completely destroyed in a nasty way. Right at the moment of contact, the giant's forearm broke from the middle and one could see two white bones coming out of the torn muscles along with blood , and his elbow bent in a way it was not supposed to be.

Before the giant could even react and right after the punch, Dante, who looked devoid of any emotion, used the bone of the forearm as a stepping stone and jumped just a little a higher than the head of giant. After reaching that point Dante again punched it on the top of its head.

*BAMMM*

The punch was so strong that even Rob and others , who were sitting at quite a distance, could feel its intensity. Due to the punch's sheer strength the skull of the giant burst like a balloon and spread blood in every single direction. The consiousness landed on its shoulder and then again raised his fist but this time something was different, his fist was being wrapped by a mysterious golden fluid with a white nucleus which was emitting an eerie golden light. The golden light was intoxicating in nature, because of which Ryan, Veronica, and Jenny along with other soldiers passed out, Rob being a veteran was familiar with such spells or even tricks and as a result his tolerance was higher than most people, but still, he felt dizzy and his vision was slightly blurred.

Just before the consiousness , which was controlling Dante's body, could land the finishing blow and be done with it ,something really unusual happened.

Icy cold smoke started rising from the open neck of the giant as it covered the entire area, the consiousness smelled the smoke and he was shocked and said

" THIS SMOKE IS MADE UP OF POWER OF LAWS!!!

WHAT THE [email protected]@K IS HAPPENING HERE ?!

DAMN! SO THIS IS THE REASON WHY HE WAS TRYING TO TAKOVER HIS BODY."

The consiousness took a deep breath and calmed itself and now one could see a bit of regret in his eyes.

Sigh

With a tired look, the consiousness said

"He is coming. "

Suddenly the golden fluid which surrounded the right arm of Dante started trembling, it grew in size and formed many finger like projections. The golden aura surrounding Dante's body slowly faded away and was now replaced by a red aura, unlike the golden aura which was godly this was a sinister aura and could be called a devilish aura.

His eyes were out of color and looked like the eyes of a dead person until when a red color started filling those eyes. Just like his eyes, the golden colour in that fluid faded away and was now being filled with a red color, which was terribly similar to the dark red colour of blood. After his eyes and that fluid were all red , the iris again started shifting to their respective positions. As they shifted the consiousness went into deep sleep and due to the immense pain Dante woke up but , he wasn't the only one who woke up.

The iris atlast finished their repositioning and their initial position was now took over by another red iris.

The red iris was mainly grey with a tone of red. If one would see clearly then they would be able to see that there were strange symbols embedded on that iris and they were not glowing at all rather they were dimming the red glow around them.

The Red fluid didn't stopped expanding and soon covered the entire giant and the smoke that was being released by it, like an animal before devouring

Its prey to end their hunger and thirst for blood.

The red fluid even engulfed Dante as he started acting like a madman and the reason for him to act like one was because he was having a hard and painful time in defending his control over the body against that ' he ' who was mentioned by the consiousness earlier , ' he ' is also the one to whom those other pair of red iris belongs to.

The red fluid and its finger like projections soon covered the entire body of giant, which was still standing, and started absorbing and eating that thing like a hungry animal devouring it's favourite prey. As Dante struggled with ' he ' the red fluid slowly ate everything but it never absorbed anything, it would soon discard away the eaten things as if it was looking for something , the eaten flesh would just disappear but the eaten mana was released as small white particles, because being given a body of laws Dante couldn't use normal magic. Soon the red fluid reached the core of that giant , the core was like ball which had a mysterious symbol like the ones on the divine spear but much less complicated. The symbol started glowing even more and as a result the red fluid's movement was almost put to a hault, but at that moment.

" HAHAHHAHA "

A frenzy laugh resounded and its source was Dante, seemingly that ' he ' had a really big ego and it couldn't just withstand such defiance to his attack. The symbols on the iris of ' he ' started dimming the surrounding even more than before as a result the red fluid at last broke through that defence of the core and it approached the icy white liquid inside it.

The area around that liquid was at absolute zero and as result it was getting extremely difficult for ' he ' to devour and consume it, not only that, the mysterious power of law in that liquid was even affecting the red fluid. The finger like projections in that fluid which were always expanding have now started contracting, and they contracted to point where can't even be seen, not only that no matter how much that red fluid tried it would never be able to come close to that liquid. Seeing this ' he ' was getting irritated and impatient, ' he ' increased the power of attacks but still it would be of no use at all.

"YAHHHHHH"

Atlast ' he ' poured all his power and the red fluid in the end broke past the defence of that liquid.

It started absorbing the icy white substance which was neither liquid nor solid yet when absorbed it flowed and ,when it wasn't, it behaved like a solid.

As it absorbed the icy white liquid the colour of that red fluid changed into that of that liquid being absorbed. The liquid soon reached Dante 's body, which was behaving like ' he ' and couldn't wait for it to be absorbed, and as it absorbed the fluid both Dante and ' he ' could feel immense pleasure as if their long last hunger was put to an end with their favourite food. ' he ' soon disappeared after the absorption was over like a animal who had gone to sleep after eating.

Dante could feel ' he ' was gone now and he felt really relaxed now, his body was coming back to its original shape as he fell down to the ground , as the giant has disappeared after being eaten.

Dante fell to the ground and he slowly got up and he could feel that his entire body has again come back to his control, but suddenly huge amount of data started transferring to his brain, this was all the knowledge contained in that small fragrant of law. The amount of data was so much that it was getting too much for Dante 's brain , after all he was forcefully woken up and wasn't prepared mentally. Dante felt as if his brain was going to burst at any moment from now. Not being handle so much knowledge all at once Dante screamed in pain and again pressed his head. His clothes turned a little icy white and same was with his hair ,eyes and same was with his hair ,eyes and even skin colour.

Blood started coming out of his nose and ears indicating that his brain was definitely hurt by this, then suddenly the headband and handbands reappeared, they were now covered with a dense icy white aura and soon the stones ,which were on them, absorbed all of it.

* KHENNNN *

After absorbing the fragrant of the law, the headband passed a vibration through Dante 's head because of which he passed out. After which the headband and handbands disappeared and so did the clothes which were being worn by Dante.
