Chapter 87: Too powerful
“Gaaaaah… grrrr… ”
The ogres marched towards Evan at full speed, their numbers crossed a hundred thousand. Their face was filled with rage and a hunger for blood.
Evan smirked at the hoard of ogres coming towards him, the ball of destruction in his hand was bending the fabric of space around it.
When he was about to release the ball of destruction, a notification rang in his head.
[Congratulations, host. You have gained the skill ‘Infernal Tempest’.]
But Evan ignored it for the time being, he right now just wanted to see how much destruction his new skill cause.
So with the desire to see the utmost destruction, he released the ball of Infernal Tempest in his hand.
The ball went straight towards the horde of monsters, the space cracks appeared at the place it passed through.
It didn’t even take a second to reach the horde of monsters and the moment it came in contact with them, a large destruction, similar to the explosion from a nuclear weapon happened in front of Evan.
Boooooooom!!!!
A loud defening thunderous explosion happened that tore apart every single one of the ogres present inside that explosion.
A white light illuminated the whole planet, even brighter than the sun, followed by a storm of black dust and heat waves.
Huge dark mushroom clouds formed at the place of the explosion. The whole planet trembled, and even its rotational speed was affected due to the explosion.
Evan watched the destruction that his skill caused with an awestruck face. Even he didn’t expect that it would cause so much destruction.
Ding~ Ding~ Ding~
Many notifications popped up in his head at the same time, all of which were notifications of Killing monsters.
‘I didn’t even use 10% of my mana and it was this strong… if I had used all of my mana in that attack then… would this whole planet have been destroyed?’
He couldn’t help but have that thought, the destruction he caused was still hidden under the smoke and dust but all of that didn’t matter to him, he could easily see the destruction his skill caused just now.
In front, in the place where the explosion happened, there was no sign of any ogre being present there, heck there wasn’t any sign of anything being there in the first place, the whole land, huge mountains, giant ogres, were all blown to oblivion leaving a large space there.
It looked as if someone had taken away that part of the planet. Almost one-fifth of the planet was destroyed in that attack.
“This is too strong…”
Evan gasped in amazement. He couldn’t express how he felt today, for the first time he was properly able to use his abilities and fight monsters, not counting the one where Celestina was almost killed.
“This is so amazing. Hey system, how many monsters are still left for me to clear the quest?”
[You took almost half of the monsters in that attack, but there remains more on your other sides.]
Following the system’s words, Evan turned to his left and then to his right. He saw many more monsters coming towards him. Even after seeing such destruction, there was no sign of fear in them and they marched towards him with the same desire for blood.
Evan didn’t mind any of their anger, he was feeling as if he was the most honored person in his entire existence right now, he didn’t care about anyone else and just wanted to see his limit, which for now was none.
‘Why don’t I take all of you at once, it will save me so much time, right?’
The intense flame of desire for destruction was already flaring inside him. And he didn’t wait any second then.
He stomped his foot on the ground, making the whole mountain he stood on the quake and jumped straight into space, he manipulated his ability to ‘Wind god’s fury’ and went even higher and stabilized himself in outer space. The giant ogres now looked like ants to Evan when seeing them from up above.
Just like before, was about to use his ability. But this time, he doesn’t need to combine his abilities like before, he can directly use his skills.
Evan didn’t hesitate to use his skill, and soon a small ball of ‘Infernal Tempest’ appeared in his hand, it was around the size of a football and was already powerful enough to kill many of the ogres below.
He channeled his mana into the ‘Infernal Tempest’ and it began to grow much bigger. Evan didn’t stop channeling his mana into it and it grew bigger and bigger, even after pouring half of his mana into it, Evan wasn’t satisfied.
He poured more of his mana into it, and the power of destruction became so strong inside the ball that black flames began to pour out from it and burned the space around it.
The pressure caused by the ball also began to increase holding all the ogres in it’s place, not giving them any leeway to move.
In a few seconds, Evan was done pouring all his mana into it. The ball was so big that its shadow covered all of the planet.
‘Hmm, something isn’t right? I should make it a bit smaller.’
He thought and compressed the ball of ‘Infernal Tempest’. Evan has full control over it so it wasn’t difficult for him to compress its size. It soon turned into a small ball that devoured the space around it leaving an empty void.
Standing up in the air with a ball of destruction in his hand, Evan felt like a famous anyone hero in an anime, he so badly wanted to say the line, but this was his show, not others, so he would make his line.
“With this, I will be taking my first step towards conquering the tower, right?”
[Yes, host.]
“Then, from this moment on, I vow to never bow my head in front of anyone, those who are close to me shall prosper and those who oppose me shall perish. I vow to never let fate decide my path, I will carve my destiny itself…”
Evan then looked below and his face was calm this time not the hunger of destruction overflowing from him, then he softly said a word,
“Swaha~”
And released the ball from his hand as if he were giving an offering to the burning flames.
The ball fell with a screeching sound and the moment it came in contact with the ground, it exploded.
But the destruction this time was so immense that not only the ogres on that planet, but the whole planet in its entirety was blown to oblivion leaving not even a speck of dust behind.
Evan was unaffected by it as if he was far above. He calmly watched the destruction that unfolded with his ability, a plane filled with string monsters just a moment ago was now gone leaving a small deep black hole where it existed before, even which disappeared after a brief while.
[Host…]
“Hmm?”
[You good?]
“Yeah, I am fine. So, how did it go? I finished the quest right?”
[Yeah, you did. Congratulations, host. You have taken your first step towards conquering the tower. You killed all the monsters on this planet. You have been rewarded with +1 to all of your stats.]
Evan didn’t feel a massive change but he knew he was more powerful than before, if he were to do what he did now, he could destroy 10 more such planets with ease.
‘Now, how should I go back to my place?’
[You will go back in a while host. You will return to the place where you came here from. Just wait a while. It might take a few minutes.]
‘A few minutes, huh? Hey, those ogres… was there a way to turn them back to normal? I am not asking because I want to turn them back, but just in case if I ever need to.’
[Umm, I know what you mean host, you are worried about people close to you, but let me tell you this, if you or anyone becomes a slave to tower, you can’t turn them back to normal. It’s not even almost, it’s impossible to turn them back, the only thing that can be done is to kill them and send them to the cycle of reincarnation.]
‘Hmm.’
Evan nodded in his mind. Soon, his body began to radiate with white light, and he disappeared from his place and returned to his world to the same location where the dungeon appeared.
