Bang!

Belmuk leaped at Benimaru, setting out dirt and dust. 

Benimaru stayed in his spot, not fearing Belmuk's rush. He swiped his left hand from left to right. " [ Wall of Devastation ] "

A rectangle-shaped wall made of purple fire was conjured before him. Unlike the previous ones, this one was much more compact because of his increase in strength and proficiency in skills.

Belmuk's rocket-like punch landed on the wall. Belmuk was confident in his power, as the Silverback Gorilla's strength was unparalleled in this part of the region. But he was quickly proven wrong. 

This hard yet transparent wall, which he believed would smash into pieces under his attack, didn't budge a little.

Belmuk was about to pull his fist back, but a strong force refounded in his fist that was multiplied by the purple fire attributes. His right arm bounced back as a result, making him defenseless. 

" [ Short Burst ] " Benimaru then dashed before the falling Belmuk with his katana that was burning with purple fire.

Benimaru slashed at Belmuk's chest to end this quickly. But Belmuk crossed his arms and prevented the attack from reaching his chest. Still, that slash managed to sever his arms as a result, and the purple fire exploded upon contact with his skin, blasting him down at a faster rate.

Bang!

Belmuk smashed into the ground, creating a ten-meter-wide pit. He quickly stood with his severed arms hanging down. Blood rolled down from his severed arms and was on its way, creating a small blood puddle.

Belmuk glanced up and said to himself. " [ Lathik ] "

Instantly, the rich natural mana, which was of wood and earth, gathered into his severed arms and began to heal. 

Benimaru raised eyebrows at this. 'The Silverback Gorilla's heart has increased his vitality by a considerable amount, and added to that are his healing spells in his arsenal…tsk, this guy feels unkillable.'

Which was a bad sign as Benimaru didn't want to prolong this fight, fearing a third party with a strong powerhouse might enter the battlefield. He could have gone for the kill right now, but he was testing if Belmuk had anything more. Now that he had gotten a better estimation of what Belmuk was capable of, Benimaru had thought of a way to kill Belmuk.

Belmuk's arms were half way through healing properly when, suddenly, he felt danger alarms ringing in his mind. He saw Benimaru pressing his hand forward, having his pal face toward him. 

" [ Thunder Spears Rain ] " Benimaru whispered, devoid of any emotion. The next moment, spears made of purple thunder were conjured behind him in dozens or so. If one looked carefully, they could see a small, condensed purple fireball on the tip of the spear points. 

This was another combination move, this time he tried with spells. This is the combination of three spells that cost Benimaru lots of money and time. But he felt it was worth it. Because he knew the destructive power of this spell.

Under Benimaru's command with his mental energy, the thunder spears shot down at Belmuk.

Fortunately for Belmuk, the civilians retreated further away while he rushed up to attack Benimaru. 

Belmuk had already decided in his mind what he wanted to do. He can't go head-on against these, as he would get swarmed by them in a matter of seconds. So, using his fast speed, Belmuk evaded while keeping in mind not to go close to the civilians.

Boom Boom Boom

The moment the thunder spears came into contact with the ground, explosions occurred that destroyed that piece of land entirely. 

Like this, one side of the city was completely ravaged under Benimaru's domineering power, attracting many people's attention. 

Meanwhile, Belmuk danced around to get touched by them. He was successful most of the time, as his speed was correlated with that of the Silverback Gorilla, who had great agility.

But no matter how great his dodging skill was, he was still a novice at fighting. Belmuk had been a priest his entire life, he had never fought against someone in his entire life. So, one misdirection of his dodging led him to get drowned in the thunder spears. 

"Noooo!"

Boom Boom Boom Boom

Belmuk's body got blasted and ravaged under strong, destructive fire and thunder. A few seconds later, the thunder spears stopped coming at him.

After the smoke and dust from the explosions settled down, Benimaru saw Belmuk lying down on the ground, trying to heal his body. His blackened, charred body matched the charred ground around him, which was the result of Benimaru's doing. He has blackened an entire side of the city all by himself, making it unrecognizable.

'This healing ability…' Benimaru frowned, seeing Belmuk's deep injuries getting healed at a rapid speed. He could have made a follow-up attack, but he needed to charge up a strong skill to do so, as normal attacks won't do anything to a strong, steel like body.

"Hahahaha…what is wrong? You can't do anything to me, fiend. I have the blessing of my almighty goddess." Belmuk laughed out loud, feeling confident and proud of his abilities. He knows he is garbage at fighting, but his healing abilities, which he honed for years, are not something to be looked down upon. 

At that very moment, a fleeting, melodic whisper entered Belmuk's ears, sending shivers down his spine.  I think you should take a look at

"""I am disappointed."""

"Who-" Belmuk wasn't able to finish his sentence when he felt his injuries worsening once again. 

"Wha-" Belmuk became beyond shocked. He tried to use his healing capabilities, but nothing happened. "Where are my powers? Where is my healing power that I have crafted for ages!? WHERE IS IT!?"

Benimaru raised his eyebrows, confused at what had happened. But he didn't have the time to think of it now that an opportunity was presented to him.

" [ Dark Flash ] " Benimaru's katana got enveloped in dark mana as he shot toward Belmuk.

Leaving behind a dark streak, like a stroke on the world's canvas, he arrived behind Belmuk. Belmuk was still in his madness, and he was having a hard time believing he had lost his most precious power so suddenly. 

The moment he noticed Benimaru arriving behind him, it was already too late.

Belmuk's head was severed from his neck and fell to the ground. To ensure that Belmuk died properly, Benimaru turned around and swung his katana in a flash, cutting Belmuk's heart in half.

A dumbfounded expression was still on Belmuk's severed head, as he didn't expect there to be so many turns of events against him. With his last strand of consciousness left in his mind, he questioned not himself but his goddess. 'What did I do wrong, mother? I was only doing everything just for you.'

This time, unlike the melodic, sweet voice, a cold toned voice devoid of any emotion entered his ears. 

"""Do not call me mother, you fiend."""

Something cracked inside Belmuk's soul in that fleeting moment. He was scared, like a child who the world has rejected. 

But anyone will look back at a child and embrace them back; it doesn't matter if it's a man or a god. But to a fiend? Not even the birth mother would share a shred of love.

Benimaru watched silently as the light in Belmuk's eyes faded away. Despite winning, it left a sour taste in his mouth.

Benimaru, earlier, got hit by Belmuk's surprise punch because he wanted Belmuk to be under the illusion that he was the strongest. This would make him confident and reveal important information to someone weak like him. This plan succeeded, and Belmuk did spill many things, but all were useless. Belmuk might have jumped in strength, but he was weak compared to Benimaru.

In these past few days, Benimaru has gone full throttle to ensure his safety and complete victory in this mission. He was happy to see his demon ranking rise up. Because there was no way for him to gauge his combat strength like the way it is shown for his generals. So, this was a way to let him know his limit.

However, he wasn't able to get class like others, which left him disappointed. He felt his combat style suited the Battle Mage most, but from the looks of it, it was far from the truth.

Benimaru looked at Belmuk's body and frowned heavily. 'Something is wrong. Why did his power disappear so suddenly? Hmm. His healing power comes from the goddess. So…don't tell me…'

When he came to this point of thought, he got shivers down his spine.
