Evan was startled when he heard the loud call of a rooster and quickly looked in the direction from where sound came from.
When he looked in the direction of the sound, his mouth opened wide for a moment, but then he showed an elated expression.
“A ‘Cockatrice” Evan said in an excited voice when he saw the monster who made the sound earlier. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
Cockatrice is a unique creature with the body of a wyvern and the head of a rooster.
The monster standing in front of Evan was also a Cockatrice. Its body resembles that of a wyvern, with a sleek and muscular build. It had two powerful hind legs and a pair of wings extending from its back. The most striking feature of the cockatrice was its rooster-like head. It had a comb on top of its head. Its beak was sharp and pointed, capable of delivering a venomous bite. The eyes of the cockatrice were intense and piercing, with a reptilian gaze that can petrify those who meet its gaze. Its wings were membranous and leathery, resembling those of bat wings. Its tail was long and muscular, ending in a pointed tip that it can use as a weapon in combat.
“Looks like my luck is quite good” Evan muttered while taking deep breaths.
He knew that he would face an A+ rank monster that will be more powerful than a normal A+ rank monster, but he didn’t expect to from his body as he used mana reinforcement. Because of the mana see Cockatrice that can be considered powerful even among A+ rank monsters.
Suddenly the deep blue eyes of the cockatrice lit up and Evan felt his body turning stiff.
“It must be its petrifying gaze,” Evan muttered and mana burst forth from his body as he used mana reinforcement. Because of the mana reinforcement, the petrifying gaze of Cockatrice lost its effect.
Seeing Evan was completely fine, the Cockatrice unfolded its wings, the sharp scales on its wings shone with azure light and suddenly shot towards Evan.
Evan felt a sharp aura coming out from the scales, but he didn’t try to dodge. After advancing to A rank, the power of his skills increased as well and he wanted to try them.
He extended his palm outward and suddenly a wind vortex emerged from it going straight towards incoming scales. The power of his wind manipulation skill was far higher than before.
The wind vortex swallowed all of the sharp scales that were coming towards him. But even after swallowing the scales, the wind vortex didn’t stop and continued to move towards Cockatrice.
Kukdukoo!
The Cockatrice crowed out loud when it saw the wind vortex coming towards it and used its wings to fly up.
Evan smirked when he saw this. His eyes shined with green light, and suddenly the wind vortex picked up speed and changed its direction, going upwards.
The Cockatrice did not expect the wind vortex to change direction like this, but it still reacted on time and opened its beak.
Fire spun around its mouth and a spinning fire breath came out from its beak clashing against the wind vortex.
The wind and fire collided in a violent maelstrom, creating a mesmerizing spectacle of twisting flames and gusting winds. The ground trembled beneath the onslaught, and the very fabric of reality seemed to warp under their titanic clash. As the forces collided, explosions of fire and wind erupted in all directions, tearing apart the landscape and creating an expanding wave of destruction.
Crackle!
Lightning crackled around Evan and everything slowed down in his eyes, he used temporal velocity and disappeared from the place he was standing.
The Cockatrice just closed its mouth after unleashing fire breath and was about to fly away when Evan suddenly appeared before it.
There was a lightning ball in his right hand, before the Cockatrice could react, he pressed the ball right at its face. “Kaboom,” he said and the lightning ball exploded turning into a storm of lightning that engulfed the entire body of the Cockatrice.
Because of the lightning, Cockatrice’s body stiffened and it started to fall down from the sky.
Even though Cocktrice can be considered a powerful monster among the A+ ranks, it was still no match for Evan.
Even before reaching A rank, Evan could kill A+ rank monsters. Now that his prime core is at A rank, it was all easy for him to take care of an A+ rank monster.
Before Cocktrice could crash to the ground Evan once again appeared before it. The Cockatrice was not able to move its body because of the lightning, but it still used its sharp tail and whipped at Evan.
Evan was using temporal velocity so he easily saw how the tail was coming towards him. He lifted his right hand and easily caught the incoming tail, at the same time lightning covered his left fist and he punched down at Cockatrice’s face.
Crack-!!
Kukduk!!
The sharp beak of the Cockatrice was broken because of Evan’s punch and it crowed out in pain.
Red blood spurted out from its mouth and it crashed to the ground creating a large crater in the process.
Just as Cockatrice crashed to the ground, Evan used shadow nails skill and five cursed nails appeared in his hands.
He threw them towards Cockatrice’s shadow and successfully immobilised its body. Some of Cockatrice’s bones were broken because of earlier impact and it was feeling a pain like never before, but because of shadow nails, it was not even able to move its body.
Seeing the Cockatrice who couldn’t even move Evan’s one eye shined with green light while the other one turned purple.
He lifted his hand and a three meters long purple lightning spear covered in sharp wind element formed before him.
Woosh -!
The spear started to spin and because of its destructive power, the space around it started to shake.
The heart of Cockatrice turned cold when it felt the destructive power of the wind and lightning spear.
It started to struggle furiously and the shadow nails which were stopping it started to shake.
But Evan’s face remained the same seeing this and he slashed down with his hand.
Kukduk!
The Cockatrice was finally able to resist the effect of shadow nails and was about to move away when the wind lightning spear suddenly appeared before its head in a blink of an eye.
Before it could do anything, the spear struck its head, the scales covering its head were instantly shattered and the spear penetrated its skull.
Destructive lightning and the sharp wind went inside its head and its mind instantly turned into a meat pest.
Thud!
With a loud thud, Cockatrice dropped to the ground and its life force slowly disappeared.
