Chapter 340 Chapter 339: Forgotten Rage

[You have cleared the 94th floor! Proceed to the portal to enter the next floor or retreat!]

"Argh, come on! These a.s.shats only gave half a million EXP!" he yelled in frustration.

[Congratulations, my liege,] Cerberus remarked.

Zach snarled at Cerberus and uttered, "I will shoot you next time on purpose and watch you bawl in pain!"

[My deepest apologies!] Cerberus quivered in fear.

SIGH!

"I leveled up by 3 so far in the last 44 floors. The next 6 floors are all boss floors, so I expect some high EXP gain." Zach placed his hand on his chin and muttered, "Even if I level up by 2 more levels, that will make this dungeon raid worth it."

[You are currently level 96, so 2 more levels will make you level 98,] Cerberus quipped.

Zach glared at Cerberus, and he disappeared into Zach's shadows.

p-0.

Zach pa.s.sed through the portal and entered the next floor. Cerberus immediately came out of Zach's shadow to a.s.sist him when in need.

"Let's see what type of boss this floor has. Not like it matters, but still"

A few seconds later, an enormous monster sp.a.w.ned.

It was a mixture of the worm and the centipede. It had legs all over its body, and each leg was twice the height of an adult human, with hairs growing from each leg. The monster looked like a furball while it was hiding its sharp pointy legs within them.

Its mouth stretched open into 72 sides, and each side had hundreds of teeth on them. Its eyes were popping out of its body, and it was throbbing and glowing in a pattern that resembled its veins.

Level 300- Weak Boss

HP- [100,000,000]

"Hmm? This monster looks a lot similar to the Soul Eater with some changes. But it's almost double in size," Zach muttered.

p 0

[My liege, it is the soul eater.]

"Oh?" Zach looked at the name and shook his head in disbelief. "Looks like the G.o.ds got bored of thinking names for monsters. Or perhaps their humor has no sense."

Cerberus stepped forward and uttered, [Stay back, my liege. Only I can defeat this monster.]

Zach grabbed Cerberus' snake tail and said, "No, you stay back. I will handle this."

[By my liege, did you forget you had so much trouble even landing a hit on it last time?]

Zach's face twitched from the sides as he retorted, "I landed a hit on it, okay?!"

[And I was the one who killed it.]

"Wow! Did you just flex in front of me?! Fine, I will show you who the boss is!"

Zach unequipped his gloves, as magic had no effect on the monster, and equipped the cursed dagger.

"I will go full physical attack mode and show my true power~" Zach pushed Cerberus to the side and haughtily walked toward the monster with a dagger in his hand.

'Even if I don't fight it. I just have to land one hit on the monster, and the cursed dagger would do the rest!'

Zach tossed the dagger in the air and stretched his hands before grabbing the dagger and das.h.i.+ng at the monster.

He walked the first few steps slowly and suddenly picked up speed, disappearing from Cerberus and the monster's sight.

He used his most common move and appeared on top of the monster from the air.

"There you go!" he yelled and stabbed the dagger into the monster's body.

QUAKE!

The monster reacted to the stab and shook the entire floor with its movement.

"Uh oh! It's bringing back the fresh memories from floor 75! I can't say I have forgotten the near-death experience I had there."

Zach's emotions were dominated and confused by a single emotion, rage. While it may not be the same monster who took the lives of thousands of the people he tried to protect in front of his eyes, his rage knew no bounds.

[My liege?] Cerberus called out to Zach, but he received no response.

He slowly stepped back and hid in the shadow of the nearby rock. On the other hand, Zach was standing still on top of the monster with a lifeless glare in his eyes.

Zach had four blessings active. One was Aria's, the second was Xie Lua's, the third was the sea G.o.d's, and the fourth was the demon king's.

p-0 Aria's blessings weren't currently useful in the battle, and he was using her dagger. Sea G.o.d's blessings were also useless as there was no water around. Using Xie Lua's blessings was a gamble as Zach wasn't sure if Phoenix's fire could be considered as magic or not, and he didn't have time or was in no mood to test it.

The only blessing he had left that wasn't related to magic was the Demon King's blessings, and ironically, that represented 'rage' too.

It was the perfect opportunity for Zach to use the Demon King's blessings and let himself be consumed by the rage. But there was a big problem: Zach could not control his senses in demon mode.

The issue wasn't him getting lost in rage, but the problem was to come back to his senses.

When Zach used the Demon King's blessing for the first time even though it was only halfway through his body Aria had difficulty bringing him back to his senses. And in the dungeon, there was no one to do that.

Zach indeed wanted to be consumed by rage, but only for a limited time, not forever. So the only person he could trust was himself or rather his love for the girls.

'Remember, Zach, if you don't come back to your senses after you have beaten the s.h.i.+t out of this monster, you will be lost forever and become a monster yourself. If you don't return to your girls, they will think you have abandoned them. That's why, no matter what happens, you have to come back to your senses. Or better yet, stay sane even in demon mode.'

Zach closed his eyes and activated his demon mode.
