'Ice Wing.'
Ace flew toward Lexie when she was in danger.
Even though he managed to save her, but his back was hit by the puma's attack.
*Drip…Drip…
A huge hole appeared on his T-shirt, and blood dripped from his wounds.
Xizath, who saw what he was doing, roared angrily. "Handsome human, why did you save her? I would have managed to kill her if you had not saved her."
She was enraged.
She was furious because she failed to kill Lexie.
"It seems like I have to beat you first before killing her." Xizath would not show mercy toward Ace like before because he would keep saving Lexie if she did not beat him first.
"Thank you, Ace." Lexie felt bad when she saw the wound on his back.
"Let's do it again like before." He spoke and paused for a second before he continued, "I will fight them head-on, and you will support me from the rear."
"Alright." Lexie nodded her head.
"Die, human!" Zarral roared as he rushed toward Ace.
The intense fight began again.
Thunderous sounds reverberated in the entire area, and some parts of the cave were blown to pieces.
They used their skills and magic as they tried to defeat each other.
As Ace was fighting fiercely against the Yin-Yang puma, all the divine beings watched the fight with excited faces.
All this time, Ace always overpowered his opponent, so they were excited because this was a rare sight.
[God of Wind says, use your magic and skills, boy. Beat that little cat to death.]
As usual, God of Wind was the loudest and most passionate. He kept commenting on their fights to the point that he looked like a football match commentator.
"Yin-Yang Dragon." Ace used the third form of the Yin-Yang dragon skill.
Like Ace, the puma also used their Yin-Yang skill. "Yin-Yang Destruction."
Boom!
The cave shook, and all the magical beasts around the cave ran away when their attacks collided.
"Die, human!" Zarral shot out a flame from his mouth.
But before his attack hit Ace, Lexie used Earth Shrink magic to teleport Ace behind the puma.
However, the puma had anticipated this, so he could avoid it when Ace attacked the puma from behind.
"Huft…Huft…Huft…" Lexie, Ace, and the puma breathed heavily.
At this moment, they only had a little stamina and energy left.
Not only that but blood also could be seen on their bodies. If one saw them, that person would know immediately that they had a fierce fight.
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!" Zarral was enraged because he still could not kill Lexie and Ace.
'My sister and I only have a little stamina and energy left. We can't kill them in our current state.'
Previously, he thought they could kill Ace and Lexie easily, but he was wrong because Lexie and Ace could fight them on an equal footing.
'But they are in the same state as us. They won't be able to kill us.'
He believed Ace and Lexie would not be able to kill them because they were in the same state.
Lexie, who was standing next to Ace, held her staff firmer.
'It has been almost thirty minutes now, but we still haven't managed to kill the puma. What should I do?'
She only had a little bit of mana left, so she was panicked because she had to get a purple lotus today.
'My mana is only enough to use Stone Rain magic one more time, but...'
Because she only had a little mana left, she could only use Stone Rain magic one more time.
After that, she would have no mana left in her body.
The problem was that she believed Stone Rain magic was not enough to kill the puma.
This was the reason why she panicked because she had to make an antidote for her niece as quickly as possible, or else her niece's condition would get worse.
Ace, who noticed her expression, uttered, "Don't worry, lady Lexie. We will get the purple lotus today. We will win this fight."
Lexie was startled by his words.
Ace was in the same condition as them, so she knew he only had a little stamina left too.
So why did he say they would get the purple lotus later?
Why did he say they would win the fight later?
Wasn't he in the same condition as them?
Lexie stared at Ace without saying a single word.
She wanted to know why he dared to say something like that. He even said it confidently, as if he knew the result of their fight.
However, no matter how hard she tried to find the answer, she could not find it.
"Haha." Zarral laughed loudly after hearing Ace's words. "You said you would win the fight? You said you would get the purple lotus? Have you forgotten your condition is the same as ours?"
Zarral found Ace's words funny because they were in the same condition.
It could be said they could only use one more weak attack. After that, they would have no energy left.
So, where did his confidence come from when he said these words?
Was he trying to comfort Lexie?
Wasn't it better to think about himself than to lie like that?
Zarral did not expect his enemy to act funny like that.
Ace still acted calmly when Zarral made fun of him. "I will show you how we will win this fight."
'System, use Recovery feature. Heal all my wounds.'
He had promised to help Lexie get the purple lotus, so he was willing to sacrifice his money to heal his wounds.
[Ding! Three gold coins have been used to heal Host's wounds.]
Lexie widened her eyes in surprise when she saw that his wounds were healing at an incredible speed.
'What?! His wound has already healed?! Did he learn healing magic before?'
She suddenly thought that Ace learned healing magic.
'But why didn't he heal his wounds earlier? Why is he only healing his wound now?'
Countless questions appeared in her mind.
'Wait!'
She remembered something important.
'He only has a little mana left, so why did he use it to heal his wounds? Are we going to retreat?'
She did not understand his actions because previously, he said they would get the purple lotus.
Like Lexie, the Yin-Yang puma was also shocked.
'What?! He has a healing magic?'
The puma thought Ace did not have healing magic because he did not use it before.
"Brother, what should we do? His wounds have already healed." Xizath inquired.
"Don't worry. He made a big mistake." In Zarral's eyes, Ace made a big mistake.
"What do you mean by that, brother?" Xizath did not get his words.
"He only has a little mana left, but instead of using it to attack us, he decided to heal his wounds. Isn't that the same as making a big mistake? Because with this, he won't have enough mana to attack us." Zarral explained to his sister why he said Ace made a big mistake.
"I see." Xizath finally understood his words.
"Who said that?" Ace spoke abruptly.
"Human, you don't need to try to hide it." Zarral responded, "We are in the same state, so I know you don't have mana to attack us now."
"Then I will show you that you are wrong." After saying that, he told his system to use the Energy Replenishment feature.
[Host, how much energy do you want to replenish?]
'Half.'
Half of his energy capacity was enough to use the third form of the Yin-Yang dragon skill, so he only wanted to replenish half of his energy capacity.
[Ding! Sixteen gold coins have been used to replenish Host's energy.]
"Haha. Human, are you trying to fo-" Zarral stopped his words halfway when he saw a giant golden dragon in mid-air.
'How? How could he still have enough energy to use that skill? How?'
From the aura alone, Zarral knew that Ace's attack was powerful and needed a lot of energy to use it.
So, how could he still have enough energy to use that powerful skill?
Wasn't he in the same condition as them?
Didn't he only have a little energy left?
So, how?
Countless questions appeared in Zarral's mind.
"Brother, that skill is powerful! What should we do?" Xizath was scared when she saw the giant golden dragon.
They were in their weak state, so she knew what would happen to them if they got hit by his attack.
Death!
She believed they would die if they got hit by Ace's attack.
That was why she was scared because she was not sure that they could avoid it.
Unlike Xizath and Zarral, Lexie's face was full of smiles.
Even though she did not know why he could still use a powerful skill, she did not ask any questions.
She could get the purple lotus if he could kill the Yin-Yang puma, so she did not care where he got that much energy.
"Goodbye, puma." Ace said calmly.
*Roar…
Like usual, the giant dragon roared before flying toward its enemy.
Terror overtook their faces when Xizath and Zarral saw the golden dragon flying toward them.
"Agghhh…" A soul-piercing howl of pain reverberated in the entire area.
Bang!
The Yin-Yang puma fell to the ground.
"Human, I didn't exp-" before Zarral had finished his words, he stopped breathing forever.
The Yin-Yang puma, the powerful magical beast that almost broke through to the 4-star, had finally died.
[God of Wind says, good fight, boy. Good fight.]
[Several divine beings agreed with God of Wind's words.]
Ace and Lexie smiled happily.
Little did they know that something big would happen to them.
