Alice didn't waste any time and focused on the Wyvern whose attention was turned to her. The Wyvern roared in rage. Alice didn't flinch this time and summoned her black scythe. She had collected a lot of chaotic energy from all her previous fights on the last nine floors.
Alice summoned more servants and shot small soul bombs at the Wyvern to keep his attention.
"Soul bomb."
Alice swung the scythe and suddenly a dark aura surrounded it and its size increased. It became even sharper and the scythe made of chaotic energy started taking proper form.
With every opportunity, Alice slashed the scythe at the Wyvern.
"Take this."
"Soul bomb."
While Alice was keeping it busy. Shin didn't sit still.
"First increase all my stats."
<strong>[STR - 200]</strong>
<strong>[VIT - 200]</strong>
<strong>[AGI - 200]</strong>
<strong>[DEX - 200 ]</strong>
<strong>[Stamina - 200]</strong>
<strong>[Mana - 144(50% Purified)]</strong>
<strong>[Bonus stats - 0]</strong>
With the increase in stats, Shin felt like his body was expanding. He felt his body was breaking through something. His bones were being crushed and rejuvenated at the same time. It wasn't painful in the least.
He was filled with a strange power.
"I don't have time to get adjusted to these stats so I divided them equally (excluding mana). So basically my power should be more than doubled. Now-" He was interrupted by a loud explosion.
*Kaboom*
'Alice is taking care of it splendidly. I should hurry up.'
"I would have preferred to upgrade it. But I guess I can only depend on rank up now." Shin sighed seeing the skill name in front of him.
"Well, whatever. First, convert Horn Rush (B) X780 into skill points."
"Now use all the skill points to rank up Extreme Speed (E)."
'I want it to reach its max fast.'
<strong>[Do you confirm?]</strong>
"Yes" With his approval. His skill started ranking up. It was an unprecedented feat.
<strong>[Your skill Extreme Speed (E) has ranked up to Extreme Speed (A).]</strong>
"Great. Now I am read-"
*Crash*
Shin was cut off as a loud crashing sound was heard.
The Wyvern swung his huge tail which crashed onto Alice. He saw Alice's body was sent flying from the impact. She was about to crash on a sharp boulder.
Shin didn't think much and instinctively used Extreme speed to reach her. If it was before it wouldn't have been possible but now it was different.
"Extreme Speed."
His figure blurred and appeared near Alice catching her and landing on the ground safely. He would have used gravity control but its effect wouldn't have been able to save her in this situation.
He made some distance between the monster and them with his high agility to get some time.
Shin himself was surprised by his incredible speed and he also felt this wasn't the true potential of this skill. He saw Alice's condition and felt his heartache.
Alice was bleeding. Some of her bones were crushed. She was in no condition to fight as she was now. This outcome was obvious. Unlike Shin, Alice's stats are very low so with this level of difference. A physical fight was disadvantageous for her.
Her ability isn't effective either. She was still weak in front of a level 300 monster.
Shin tried to help Alice with his instant recovery blessing. But.
<strong>[It can't be used on others.]</strong>
"On no Alice." Shin was concerned about Alice.
*Roar*
But he can't take care of her now. The Wyvern was approaching and he needs to face it.
In a panic, his eyes turned to the Soul Grimoire which was floating near them. He immediately thought of something and said
"Mam, can you help us." The Soul Grimoire started shaking but stopped. He felt something weird and at that moment he channels his mana at the Grimoire.
As soon as he did. Mia's figure appeared in front of them and she started healing Alice. Although her healing magic had reached an advanced level it would still take some time to heal this level of injuries.
Robin also appeared and got in a fighting stance to confront the approaching Wyvern.
"Will she be okay?" Shin asked worriedly.
Mia nodded her head giving her confirmation.
"Thank God." Shin sighed and closed his eyes. As he opened them they turned cold. They were full of hatred. He didn't have the predator's eyes skill anymore but his eyes were definitely of a predator.
They turned red as he glared at the Wyvern approaching them. His immense killing intent even made the Wyvern flinch for a second.
Shin didn't wait anymore and turned formless into a sword and dashed towards the approaching Wyvern.
The Gray Wyvern saw the human in front of him was more powerful than before and started using more power.
"Arcane Web."
Shin used Arcane webs to hinder the Wyvern's movements but it flapped or wings once and managed to deflect it.
"Shit, I need to get in range to use other abilities," Shin muttered and started moving even faster. Wyvern thumped its legs on the ground and it started shaking for a moment.
"Gravity control." Shin used his Gravity Control to balance himself and propel himself towards the Wyvern. As he needs to keep his attention to himself he can't use Shadow Veil.
Shin appeared at the back of the Wyvern after he dodged all the attacks. He slashed the sword with the same technique but stronger force.
"Razor Slash and Poison Master."
This time the Wyvern felt something was wrong and instinctively tried to dodge the attacks but it managed to barely scrape him.
Shin saw the wound. It was pretty deep. Deep enough for poison to take effect. The Wyvern was very angry as it used those purple flames on Shin intending to finish him off with that attack.
"Shit, this again. Water Magic." Shin shot a burst of water which was very concentrated and powerful at the incoming purple flames.
Both attacks hit each other but the water was evaporated. The flames continued their way although a bit weakened.
Shin who didn't fully rely on that attack and was prepared to dodge, managed to do it again. But the attack continued moved forward and hit the ground. Instantly creating a hole from the impact and heat.
Shin's eyes widened in horror.
"... If that attack had hit me, I would have been done for." He muttered in disbelief.
"What skill is that? Magic eyes." Shin got his answer in a flash. That powerful purple flames were.
