The Demonic crows were clawing at his skin, but Viktor decided to power his way through even if that meant he would be inflicted with even more injuries.
Because of that, the demonic crows were unable to stop him from rushing forward towards Oben, who quickly used his free hand to draw a rune in thin air at an insane speed as a portal opened right before Viktor and dozens of Ranars rushed out.
Viktor clicked his tongue in frustration as he used his dagger to sever their heads like butter, and because of his monstrous strength, the Ranars were unable to touch him, and even if they were able to land an attack on his body with their weapons, it hardly left a scratch.
By this time, Nyissa got out of the cage and summoned her spear as she cast multiple attacks spells one after the other to slaughter the Ranars that were trying to gang on Viktor.
Nyissa saw that the portal was still open and decided to launch her strongest attack, which she had comprehended after getting stuck in the cage. She had experienced a moment of epiphany when fighting Oben before, and only during the cage did she come to comprehend some things about her own mystic arts.
She threw her spear into the air, which levitated in the air above her as she clasped her hands together and closed her eyes as she mumbled something.
The spear began to hit with an intense black light as another spear identical to it appeared beside it. The next moment, two of them appeared, then four, then eight, and it kept on increasing till more than a hundred spears were floating in the air above her.
Rays of black energy began to link between every other spear till all of the rays joined together at a single point.
Oben noticed what Nyissa was doing, and he seemed surprised by what she was doing.
As all the black rays gathered together at a single point, a powerful black beam of spear energy shot out from the single point, which immediately targeted the Ranars, burning them to a crisp before disintegrating them, astonishing Viktor in the process.
But Nyissa didn't stop there and let the ray pass towards Oben, who had to cancel the spell he was performing to hastily defend against this powerful cursed beam that he couldn't take lightly.
An ethereal head of a giant crow appeared before him as it opened its mouth to block Nyissa's cursed beam.
The beam struck the crow, but it began to devour it, much to Nyissa's shock. But Viktor only needed this moment of distraction to strike Oben from the side, sending him flying towards the other side.
"Ugh!" Oben's back struck against the wall before crashing on the floor while the head of the giant crow also disappeared as well.
Viktor quickly grabbed Oben's staff that was lying on the floor and tossed it towards Nyissa, who caught it very carefully.
Viktor then walked towards Oben and lifted him till his feet were dangling in the air as he slowly removed his silver mask.
After removing the mask, Viktor narrowed his gaze as he saw the face of a weary old man with beard and mustache and pale grey skin that made him look sickly as well.
Viktor didn't seem surprised to see his face and felt as if he had already seen this man in the past, especially since this was the same person Sae had secretly met occasionally.
"Now you are going to help me let the souls of my people rest in peace," Viktor said with a heavy gaze since he realized that there was no point in breaking the cages his people were trapped in if they were still stuck in their fake bodies Borin had made to make them suffer.
He knew Oben would probably know the way to make their souls return to the right place.
Oben's expression remained impassive as he said, "You have only angered him, and now he is coming for you. You shouldn't have done that."
Viktor frowned, wondering what he was talking about but suddenly....
*BOOM!*
A large column of dark orange light manifested in thin air behind Viktor, making him turn around to see who it was.
The impact of that large column of dark orange light shook the ground heavily, making everyone almost stumble though Viktor was able to maintain his footing.
"It seems like you mere mortals can't get a simple job done unless I do things myself…" A booming voice echoed in the dungeon as a large figure appeared as the dark orange beam disappeared.
It was a giant man that was at least eight meters tall clad in red armor from head to toe though Viktor was able to make out some of his facial features behind his helmet.
His eyes widened as he noticed that it was Borin himself, especially when his corpse was no longer on the floor, but at the same time, based on the words this giant said, he felt that this wasn't Borin on the inside but someone else.
Borin's heavy hammer, which was lying on the floor, levitated to the air as it further increased in size before the giant held it in his hand with just a single hand.
Viktor saw that the giant 'Borin' was at least eight meters tall, and his presence seemed to exude a terrifying and heavy aura that made Viktor feel small.
His expression grimaced as he found it hard to move, and even Nyissa stood stunned in her spot as she found it suffocating under his heavy aura.
"Who is he?" Viktor mumbled to Oben since even his voice was being stifled while Oben, who was kneeling on the ground in respect and reverence, answered with a sigh, "A god named Bamir...more like a fallen one. And since we failed, he is going to take matters into his own hands by manifesting himself in a mortal's body since he can't use his real body in this place."
'Gods? Now, why am I not surprised…' Viktor had heard of legends of gods and demons before, but now he didn't feel that they were that unbelievable after witnessing so many supernatural things.
"Oben...you have thoroughly disappointed me...more than this fool Borin after keeping my end of the deal. Forget it...I will deal with you after taking care of this meddlesome werewolf," Bamir said as he casually rested the giant hammer on his shoulder.
"Esteemed One! Please forgive my incompetence. I am willing to accept any punishment for my mistakes," Oben said as he bowed his head down while kneeling.
However, Nyissa and Oben were surprised to hear Bamir mention that Viktor was a werewolf instead of a vampire, though Oben was sure Bamir wouldn't get things wrong in the slightest.
Bamir made himself small till he was Borin's original height and walked towards Viktor casually as if he was sure his death was set in stone.
'Fuck!' Viktor inwardly cursed, realizing that he was unable to move a single inch towards any direction and was completely frozen to his spot.
"Viktor…" Nyissa inwardly mumbled, seeing that Bamir was going to kill Viktor though she herself was frozen as well under this man's boundless aura.
