Chapter 79: Into the dungeon (4)

"GGRRAAHHHHH!!!"

There was an ear-splitting roar in the dark. Followed by a large battle axe with chipped blade descended upon Rodd, swung by a pair of impossibly strong arms belonged to a creature with intimidating frame.

Normal adventurer and knight surely fell prey to this attack. Fortunately, supported by years of training and experience, as well as innate talent, the gold ranker was able to clearly read its trajectory, he even had enough time to notice blood and viscera from unlucky victims on the metallic weapon's surface and gave his heartfelt condolence to them, then took proper distance to the side to evade it.

The sharp metal missed him completely, and split the ground until several meters ahead, leaving a fissure with worrying depth.

'...I guess, this beast did deflect one of Paige's beam...' concluded Rodd after gauging earlier slash's level of power.
