Vile Evil Hides Under The Veil-Novel

Eren smirked when he heard Oliver's question.

Eren then turned around and looked at Kirin. The half-elf understood what he wanted from her. So she nodded at him before vanishing into thin air.

The butcher looked at Oliver once again before responding.

"Why should I tell my targets anything when I know they won't be able to do anything with the information I will provide them?

Your only option is to die here. And if you are hesitating to attack me, that's fine. I'll come for you instead."ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novelenglish.net . fire(.)nᴇt

Earth Steps!

Earth Manipulation!

Earth Spikes!

Wrath mana!

Eren made the Behemoth use the integrated spells he was summoned with. The Behemoth used the earth-element movement spell without causing an earthquake as feedback, thanks to the Earth Manipulation spell.

The Earth Manipulation spell was used to reshape the behemoth's gigantic body, making it magically lighter than it was. As a result, Eren's Behemoth wasn't as towering as Gilhause's. But it was nimble and very responsive. Nobody would expect a tank summon like Behemoth to move with such agility as what Eren's Behemoth was capable of.

Earth Spikes were created all around Behemoth's body to strengthen him and provide an edge to his attacks. This was Eren's personal touch that Gilhause couldn't pull off on his own despite being an earth-element summoner for a longer time than him.

In the end, Eren also injected wrath mana into the Behemoth, making him stronger and more fearsome. One had to say that Eren had taken Gilhause's legacy way further than the dead guy could imagine.

Oliver cursed Eren for not even extending basic decency to him. He then yelled at his team members to warn them about the potential danger approaching all of them.

"Don't you dare relax! We can only defeat him if we fight together.

HERE HE COMES!"

Boom!

As the Behemoth attacked, the elemental sword was swung. It managed to lodge itself inside the Behemoth's left shoulder, apparently trying to chop its head. However, the spikes dispersed the force behind the attack, so it was unable to do its job.

Oliver was very responsive when using the elemental sword. The only problem was that the earth-element summons didn't have the usual weaknesses of other summonses.

A large amount of soil and rocks was released from Behemoth's wounds as debris because of the sword's wound. The Behemoth roared loudly just before it attacked Oliver's team's safety barrier.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Behemoth used its front limbs to attack Oliver's team. It was as if the beast had learned to box with its front limbs and it was only targeting a small area under its feet. Earth Spikes all over the summon's limbs made its attack more potent.

Swoosh. Swing. Cut.

Behemoth continued to be attacked by the elemental sword with all its might. But apart from giving the summon a few slash wounds on its giant body, it couldn't do much. Meanwhile, the sword aura barrier Oliver's team had created for its safety was weakening under Behemoth's constant attacks.

The elemental sword tried to target Eren as well. But the guy was simply too fast to be attacked by a giant sword. He would just disappear from his position using either Blink or his lightning movement spell before appearing at his place once again.

This was the reason Eren wasn't scared of the elemental sword. He knew his response time was too quick for the giant sword to attack him. He couldn't do anything to the sword himself. In addition, he couldn't pull off the stunt Argo had done. But a large yet slow as fuck sword wasn't enough to intimidate him.

"Hahahaha. Bitch I'm lightning."

Eren laughed as his afterimage was pierced by the elemental sword. He had dodged yet another personal attack on himself while maintaining a constant barrage of attacks on Oliver's team through Behemoth.

The butcher liked the face Oliver made every time Argo called him a bitch. So he did the same and engaged him in mental warfare as well.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The events kept happening in a loop for a few minutes. Behemoth had a lot of chunks of its body parts missing due to the elemental sword. The Behemoth would regenerate part of his missing body parts by using the earth beneath him and attack Oliver's safety barrier with new vigor.

When the elemental sword failed to take care of him, Eren was bombarded with a bunch of long-range spells cast by the rankers on Oliver's team. Eren would simply dodge them or use various spells he had in his arsenal to counter them while shifting his position all over the Behemoth's body.

Eren knew exactly where to travel all over the large moving mountain that was Behemoth. His ever-changing position made it difficult for Oliver's team to even intercept him.

The C-Rank barrier was finally weakened. Not just because of Behemoth's constant attacks. Oliver could no longer maintain the battle formation because of mental exhaustion. When Oliver finally couldn't take it anymore, Behemoth broke both the safety barrier and the battle formation simultaneously.

Boom!

Behemoth's last punch allowed him to finish the task he was assigned to. The summon had lost a large portion of his front limbs because it was colliding against a barrier made of a C-ranked sword aura.

The more the elemental sword was used on Eren and Behemoth, the more sword aura was generated around Oliver's team, strengthening the barrier. But Oliver's mental burden of maintaining the sword aura as a defense barrier was increasing as well. Thus, when Behemoth kept on attacking Oliver's team relentlessly, it managed to break both the barrier and the battle formation in one go.

"Heh! Offense is the best defense.

Behemoth... give me meat patties."

Eren's sinister voice was heard by Oliver's team from above. He was looking at them while standing over Behemoth's right shoulder. The summon released another ear-piercing cry before following the summoner's commands.

Boom. Boom. Boom.

Oliver's team was exposed to the Behemoth's direct attacks for the first time under its feet. The situation was akin to an elephant trying to squash a bunch of ants.

No matter how further they all wanted to run away, some of them were about to get crushed under the beast's giant feet.
