-------------------------------

"Talking about the timing." Shin become speechless at series of system notifications that appeared on his notification window.

He also felt a large amount of strength leaving his body. "Tsk! looks like I don't have any other choice, but to face this Monster head-on."

He then activated the berserk skill of the [Yamato], returning his stats back to their original state.

-----------------------------

Nephilim's Ascent (Active): Enter a berserk state, increasing all of your stats by 100% and movement speed by 200%.

-----------------------------

After that, he immediately summoned his clones using 'Spirit Release' of [Nephilim's Mask]. At the same time, he also called out Whitie and Blackie from his pets' space.

"Alright, boys! We some work to do. We need to take down this big guy before my thirty-minute mark ends." Shin then gived an order to them.

Then the Shin and the Moon clone circle around the left and right side of the Minotaur respectively. The Sun clone, on the other hand, sprinted forward while releasing its fiery aura.

Blackie entered stealth using its 'Shadow Melding', while Whitie followed closely behind the Sun clone with a safe distance.

When the Minotaur saw all of that, it twisted its waist in a clockwise direction while pulling its huge Axe in the same direction, and planning to swing it leftwards.

But before the Minotaur manage to swing it, Shin and the Moon Clone already made their moves. Both of them pulled their swords out from their sheaths and swing them rightwards, sending a chilling crescent shape sword Qi each.

Shing!

Shing!

'Class Fighting Style: Lunar Flash'

Bang!

-438 480(Slowed)

Bang!

-440 020(Slowed)

MOO!!!

The Minotaur release a deafening roar when it was hit by that sword Qi's. It tried to swing its Axe more powerfully. But unfortunately for it, its movements were slowed down by the previous attacks, giving the Sun Clone to immediately use a sword drawing skill of its own, but it is a fiery sword Qi this time.

Shing!

'Class Fighting Style: Solar Flare'

Bang!

-493 920

-1 223(Burning Damage)

Boom!

-100 201(Bonus Damage)

MOO!!!

Because of the opposing temperatures of the skills, the Minotaur received another damage. And it failed to complete its attack and kneels on the ground with one knee.

The Sun Clone immediately swings its sword once again and sending another sword Qi with fiery fire energy.

'Extra Skill: Flame Burst'

Swoosh!

Bang!

-73 431

-3 672(Burning Damage)

Immediately after that, Shin and the Moon Clone simultaneously throw multiple slashes in the air, and each of them sent five vertical sword Qis towards the Minotaur's direction.

Swoosh! Whoosh! Swoosh!

'Slayer Skill: Crescent Cleave'

-87 104(Slowed)

-87 200(Slowed)

-86 900(Slowed)

...

...

...

Six of the ten sword waves landed on the Minotaur's body. And because of another sudden change of temperature, Shin achieved another special effect. Frosts started to form on the furs of the Minotaur's body, making its moments to be frozen in place.

Shin immediately grab that opportunity to deal more damage. He immediately controlled his body the Moon Clone's body to sheath back their swords. Then they dash forward while transforming their bodies into a bluish-white light, and swing their swords at the Minotaur as they pass through its massive body.

'Class Fighting Style: Moonlight Splitter'

Swoosh! Shing!

-656 600

Swoosh! Shing!

-655 900

At the same time, the Sun Clone jumped in the air and descend towards the Minotaur, while swinging its sword at the latter's head.

Whoosh!

'Extra Skill: Falling Lightblade'

-73 431

The Minotaur's body is too large so the Sun Clone couldn't knock it on the ground. But when the Sun Clone's feet landed on the ground, it immediately spun its body around while swinging its burning sword at the Minotaur's belly.

'Slayer Skill: Solar Cut'

-74 432

And because of the repeated damages that the Minotaur had taken, it went berserk and shattered the ice covering its body.

Bang!

At the same time, it released a powerful roar, sending an unstoppable shockwave in all directions.

MOO!!!

Swoosh!

Shin and his Clones failed to dodge that shockwave, causing the three of them to be hit by it, and sending them flying backwards.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Shin and his Clones received damage that is equivalent to the third of their total HP. And since Shin is the one the had dealt with the highest damage, the Minotaur's aggro was directed to him.

The Minotaur released a white smoke from its nose while looking at Shin with a fierce glare. Then it sprinted forward in Shin's direction while planning to strike Shin with the pair of horns on its head.

ROAR!

ROAR!

This time, Whitie and Blackie jumped in for their master's rescue. Whitie jumped on the Minotaur's left side, while Blackie appeared on its other side.

Bang! Bang!

The two tigers were sent flying backward when they collided with the Minotaur's massive body. And even though the two tigers failed to completely stop the Minotaur's charge, they still manage to slow it down. And that gave Shin enough time to dodge.

Shin leaped backward before doing consecutive back-flips to create some distance away from the incoming Minotaur. And once Shin's back is almost at the partially collapsed wall, the Minotaur is almost upon him.

But Shin is fast enough to turn his body into a bluish-white light and pass through the Minotaur's body.

'Slayer Skill: Moonlight Steps'

BOOM!

That wall completely collapsed when the Minotaur collided with it, causing the ceiling being supported by it to collapse too.

Burrggg!!!

But since the Minotaur had a massive body, the boulders that fall from the wall and ceiling failed to bury the Minotaur under it.

MOO!!!

Bang!

The Minotaur release another powerful shockwave, sending all the rock boulders in all direction. Shin and his gang are busy jumping left and right to dodge all of that incoming boulders.

Then the Minotaur took advantage of that chaos to rush towards Shin. It sprinted towards the latter planning to use its head to strike the swordsman with its head once again.

Huu~

Shin took a deep breath while focusing the power of the eclipse towards the [Yamato]. Then he slashed it forward, sending a purple sword wave in a straight line.

'Slayer Skill: Eclipse Slash'

Bang! Bang! Bang!

-92 506

All the boulders that passed through by that sword wave were either sliced into two or exploded into pieces. At the same time, the Minotaur had taken another damage by that attack and forcing it to stop its charge.

At this point, an idea entered Shin's mind. He took another deep breath to focus his mind while relaxing his body. Moments later, the sheath of his and the clone's swords were transformed into a white semitransparent longsword.

'Legacy Skill: Mondi's Style: Meteor Form'

Then Shin and his clones use their swords to deflect those incoming rock boulders that they can deflect. Sometimes, Shin picked some of the boulders with the right size and redirected them towards the Minotaur's direction. If those boulders were too large for Shin and his clones to deflect, they have no choice but to dodge.

'Quasi-Epic Combat Technique: Parrying Stance'

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Shin and his gang battled the Minotaur for fifteen minutes already. And Shin's berserk skill already reached its halfway mark, so he needed to speed things up now. He activated the domain skill of the bonus effect of his [Ruler's Equipment Set].

-------------------------

Ruler's Authority(Active): Create a domain that will extend up to a 20-meter radius from you. All of your enemies inside will receive a -40% Debuffs on all of their stats.

Duration: 15 Minutes

Cooldown: 3 Hours

----------------------------

Swoosh!

A powerful aura swept in the area around Shin, and he felt that the Minotaur received a massive decrease in its power.

Shin controlled his clones to circle around the Minotaur, while he himself charged forward. Then he channels the power of eclipse on both sides of his swords, before swinging them diagonally in an opposite direction, sending a purple cross-shaped sword Qi.

'Self-Created Skill: Eclipse Cross'

BANG!!!

-185 012

At the same time, the Sun Clone and the Moon Clone combined their powers, before swinging their swords diagonally, sending a crescent-shaped sword Qi. Then that sword Qis intervene with each other until it transformed into a rotating purple cross.

'Clone Combination Skill: Eclipse Cross'

BANG!!!

-184 990

MOOO!!!!!

Then Shin sprinted forward at the roaring Minotaur. And when the latter saw that, its eyes suddenly turned fierce before twisting its massive body together with its huge Axe.

Moo!!!

Then the Minotaur swung its Axe horizontally and coming in Shin's direction.

Shin, on the other hand, jumped in the air trying to dodge that huge Axe. But mysteriously, that Axe suddenly changed its course and followed Shin in the air.

The Minotaur formed a smirking smile with its mouth as if it is mocking Shin. Unfortunately, Shin is not your average John Doe either. He kicked the air behind him, sending him slightly higher in the air. Then he did a spin roll in there barely dodging the huge Axe.

Pa!

'Legacy Skill: Mondi's Jump'

MISS

After that, he adjusted his center of gravity to force his body to fall on the ground, while swinging the [Yamato] at the head of the Minotaur.

'Extra Skill: Falling Lightblade'

Swoosh!

-73 431

-3 672(Burned Damage)

And when his feet landed on the ground, he immediately swung the flaming [Snowstorm Edge] horizontally at the belly of the Minotaur.

'Slayer Skill: Solar Cut'

-74 721

-3 736(Burned Damage)

He then thrust the [Yamato] forward piercing through the Minotaur belly. Shin pulled that sword out almost instantly, before throwing a barrage of stabs with both of his swords.

...

The Sun and Moon Clones are not idle either. They are coordinating with Shin to interrupt the Minotaur's movements using the skills of their own. Whitie and Blackie are pouncing at Minotaur too, and even though their attacks are almost negligible for the Minotaur, they still managed to distract it from time to time.

Moooo!!!

The Minotaur entered an enraged state once again. It raised one of its legs before stomping it on the ground in a powerful manner, sending a powerful shockwave once again.

But it looks like Shin already predicted that. He ordered the two tigers to retreat temporarily, while he and his clones formed a purple barrier around them.

BOOM!!!

'Slayer Skill: Eclipse Pulse'

'Clone Combination Skill: Eclipse Pulse'

Humm.

The barriers trembled uncontrollably, but that was all on it, it didn't get shattered yet. When the Minotaur saw that, it become even more enraged, making it raise its huge Axe in the air.

But before the Minotaur swung its Axe downward, the Sun and Moon Clones immediately detonated their barrier, sending a circular sword wave that extends up to a five-meter range away from them.

'Clone Combination Skill: Eclipse Counter'

BOOM!!!

BANG!!!

-300 567

MOO!!!

The Minotaur almost stumble forward when it was hit by that attack, but it still managed to hold its ground. But when it thinks that it can finally swing its Axe downward, Shin also detonated the purple barrier around him and sending a circular sword wave of his own.

'Slayer Skill: Eclipse Counter'

BANG!!!

BOOM!!!

-300 872

This time, the Minotaur took a few steps backward trying to regain its balance. The impact of that Skill was too strong and the Minotaur took it head-on. Then another round of battle broke out.

When Shin's berserk skill only had one minute left, the Minotaur's health is already at 15% of its total health(That was 6,000,000HP). But at the same time, Shin's pets and the Sun Clone are already out on the battle.

Shin and the Moon Clone stand fifteen meters away from the Minotaur while looking at it cautiously with their sheathed swords. "OK, it is time to put an end to this." Then Shin dashes forward together with the Moon Clone, while the Minotaur is charging at them too.

Suddenly, Shin and the Moon Clone transformed into a stick of bluish-white light that flies towards the incoming Monster. And as they pass through the latter's body, they pulled out their swords from their sheaths before slashing it forward.

'Class Fighting Style: Moonlight Splitter'

Shing!

-658 660

Shing!

-658 590

Then Shin swiftly sheathed back the [Yamato] in a flawless manner as he disappeared on his current location, and reappearing behind the massive body of the Minotaur.

'Equipment Skill: Wolf King's Hunt'

Shin unsheathe the [Yamato] once again and slash it at the exposed back of the Minotaur. And this skill is the strongest single target skill that Shin currently had.

'Class Fighting Style: Quick Draw'

Shing!

-987 800

MOO!!!

The Minotaur immediately spun its massive body around when it was hit by that attack. But what greeted it in return is a sword that giving it an immense threat, and together with it is a cold voice saying. "Goodbye Big guy, I enjoy improving myself with you."

'Equipment Skill: Savage Bite'

-4 000 000(Killed)

MOOO!!!!!
