Chapter 387 50% Punch

The Mountain King snarled loudly and smashed its paws down on the ground.

Then, using all four of its limbs, it started running towards Jesse at blitzering speed. Even the fastest men competing in the Olympics wouldn't be able to outrun it!

'It's hide seems tough as steel. It even managed to tank my previous attack, which would easily be able to kill any ordinary bear.

'If I try to punch it, I'll break my hand!'

Jesse quickly concluded that his Humanoid Imperfecta hindered him greatly in the combat.

There were times when he couldn't tell the difference between the real world and the gaming world.

Sometimes, he tried to open his interface and inventory in the real world just to realize that he hadn't even logged in yet.

However, in this fight, he luckily managed to remember that this wasn't the same as in the gaming world. He was weaker and more vulnerable here.

'I might've become Starborn, but even that didn't cure my Humanoid Imperfecta. I wonder if there is anything that can!'

"Rah!" The Mountain King delivered a powerful paw swipe.

It happened to smash through one of the trees, completely obliterating it, before heading towards the floating Jesse.

Jesse shot into the air and flew to safety. He watched as the Mountain King raged below after its attack missed by a great deal and that it couldn't attack the flying man.

'That attack packed enough strength to kill me with one strike.' Jesse thought, with sweat emerging on his forehead.

'Those hikers should be far enough already, and I could escape as well…'

The situation was vastly different from his battle against the wolf.

The Mountain King would be able to crush the wolf with one strike, and before then, Jesse had no ability to escape the wolf if he wanted to.

Now, he could fly away, and there was nothing the Mountain King could do.

There was no reason to risk his life. After all, the Mountain King would be able to kill him with just one strike.

'However, this place is very near where Anna visits with her horse. I don't think anyone expected such a dangerous place to be near civilization.

'The nearest buildings aren't even far from here.

'If there is a creature that even I cannot defeat easily, I can't possibly let something like that be.'

"Well, let's try this." Jesse raised his leg, and then golden light enveloped his leg from toes to thigh, and then he kicked across the air.

The kick-shaped slash crossed through the air and smashed into the black-furred bear's back. It sent the creature crashing down on the snowy ground.

As the snow cloud disappeared, the Mountain King rose back to its feet. There was a deep, bloody cut on its back. The attack was clearly effective!

'I can use my Inner Power to attack it from far away, but I have to greatly limit the strength because this alone puts strain on my muscles and bones.'

"Raaaaawr!" The Mountain King screamed loudly and started climbing up one of the tall trees, trying to reach the human in the sky.

However, it's heavy body caused the tree's bark to crack and bend, before it finally shattered and crashed down.

"Can you survive this bombardment?" Jesse covered his legs in the golden light and kicked the air in front of him repeatedly.

Swoosh, swoosh!

The kicks made of golden light flew through the air and smashed into the Mountain King like endless fire from a machine gun.

Smack, smack, smack!

The Mountain King, suffering under the relentless onslaught, tried to hide behind one of the trees, but it was poor cover, and the golden light smashed straight through the bark and into its body.

Swoosh—Jesse soared down, plucked up one of the trees from its roots, and smashed it into the bear.

Smash!

The tree sent the Mountain King flying into the nearby mountain wall.

After the dust cleared, the Mountain King was lying on the snowy ground, bloodied and bruised. It's previous, menacing red eyes had lost their luster after the creature recognized the vast strength difference.

Jesse gently landed on the ground beside the massive creature, grabbed it by its arm, and threw the bear high into the air.

As the bear reached the same level as the clouds in the sky, it started falling down like a comet and soon crashed into the ground in the middle of the forest.

As its massive body created a deep, wide crater, the Mountain King was nowhere to be seen.

"Whoo… whoo…" Jesse hovered above the wide crater, and formed a fist with his right hand.

'I'll make sure, and this way, I can also see the limit of my current body.'

He reeled in his fist, and looked at the crater with a deep look with his beautiful purple eyes.

His right fist started glowing at the blinding golden light as if his skin had suddenly turned gold.

Then he threw a powerful downward punch in the crater's direction.

"50% Punch!"

Swoosh—a fist-shaped golden light crashed into the crater and created a powerful explosion.

All the nearby snow evaporated because of the heat of the explosion, and once the dust settled, the crater had turned way more massive, and there were small remnants of the black-furred creature.

However, those small remnants were mangled limbs.

It was clear that the Mountain King did not survive the strike.

"Argh…" Jesse coughed in pain and landed carefully on the ground.

He clutched his hand and took long breaths. It was painful, but manageable.

'That was near my limit. Perhaps 60% is the limit. Using 65% might break my hand.'

Snap—at that moment, he saw a flash of light coming from the vicinity of the forest.

'Who?' Jesse snapped his head around and flew towards the source of the light.

At that moment, he saw a hidden figure stand up and run away with a handheld camera in hand.

"It's rude to take pictures without permission!" Jesse snatched the camera from the figure.

"Ah!" The figure let out a startled sound and shouted. "Give it back!"

Jesse looked at the round-headed woman and crushed the camera in his hand. The camera turned into powder in his grip.

"Ah, that was expensive!" She cried out and fell down to her knees. "Y-you owe me a camera!"

"I owe you nothing." Jesse crossed his arms and landed back on the ground. "Who the hell are you, and why did you take a picture of me?`"

"Because if I hadn't, I believed that I would think I was dreaming once I wake up next day!" She said. "Everything I saw didn't seem real!"

"Huh, and what did you see?"

She flipped her hair and stood up from the snowy ground.

"I saw almost everything." She crossed her arms in front of her body and squinted her eyes. "How the hell did you do that all?"

"You saw me do something impossible, and yet you aren't afraid?" Jesse pointed at her with his open hand and asked. "Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you to keep my secret protected?"

"You won't." She smiled with a confident look. "I saw you protect those hikers. You didn't let them die to keep your secret hidden."

"You are a quick thinker." Jesse said with a smirk. "Now, who are you?"

"I am a landscape photographer." She said, and took out her badge, showing her affiliation. "I visited this place back in the summer, and now that the snow had fallen, I had come again.

"This place is famous for it's stunning landscape, after all!"

"Ah, is that so…" Jesse shrugged his shoulders and started floating up from the ground.

"Very reckless of you to stay behind to take pictures.

"If the fight had steered in this direction, you could've died."

"Wait, what is your name?" She quickly asked.

"Not telling." Jesse smirked.

"Aren't you afraid that I will spill the beans?" She asked with a frown. "Your identity will be discovered sooner than later."

"Who will believe you?" Jesse shook his head. "Even if those hikers acted as your witnesses, no one will believe you. Nothing that happened here will be believed."

"Ah…" She pouted and shouted. "Are you alien?!"

Swoosh—before she received her answer, Jesse shot into the air and flew across the air like a shooting star.

He disappeared out of sight, and only the destroyed forest was proof of him ever being here.

The photographer looked at the sky with a look of speechlessness on her face.

"Jonna, I know this is beyond your expectations.

"Is it really safe to spread your creation across the globe? He, who had only had it in his possession for a few months, can already move mountains.

"The world will never be the same again."

She sighed and looked at her destroyed, powdered camera on the ground. She was supposed to take a few pictures of him for her boss, Jonna, but unfortunately, she forgot that the flash was on.

"Damn, it was expensive…"
