"'This monster has a really high IQ.' Fein immediately attributed the behavior of the golden giant to its intelligence.
The more intelligent a monster is, the more it could recognize the danger in certain situations and the more they are afraid of death. Of course, that doesn't mean that monsters with high IQs are cowards. They are just wiser and lack the reckless and impulsive behavior of other lower-IQ monsters. More of a reason is that their natural wildness as beasts was gradually being replaced with reasoning.
"Well, it's time to end this." Fein made his fingers produce a popping sound. Then he looked at Voli for a moment. "Hey, Voli. I'm not sure if you can see what's going on here with your height. But the giants are all dead."
'Huh?' Voli heard Fein's voice, so he immediately cast his gaze toward the source of his master's voice.
Then he spotted Fein, who looked like a dot to him, and also saw another giant with golden armor running away. But just like what Fein said, he could see the traces of previous A-rank giants. So this made Voli think... 'Did I accidentally send them to death?'
Fein didn't wait for Voli's reply and he used his short-distance teleportation to catch up with Heim, who was running furiously. The golden giant's every step covered at least twenty meters, which made him look fast. Fein didn't know if the giant was running or literally hopping.
Just like that, Fein appeared out of thin air above the head of the giant. He took out his sword from its sheath.
Heim was quite vigilant in his surroundings, as he knew that with just one step of Voli, the gap between the distance would be meaningless. After all, Voli's each step might be able to cover a distance of hundreds of meters with the size of his feet.
Heim was quite confident with his defense, but he wasn't a fool to let it go in his head. Just the strange mean of a human which makes him appear and disappear already made Heim wary. He didn't know what other means human being have.
Just as Fein swung his sword towards Heim's neck with absolute precision, he saw multiple walls rise on the ground on Heim's back. Heim still continued his pace without looking at Fein.
The sword went through smoothly through the walls and divided them neatly.
However, Heim has once again widened the distance.
"This is meaningless. With my teleportation, I could just catch you no matter where you go! Come and fight me!" Fein shouted provocatively.
He hoped that it would take effect. Heim was a unique giant that interests him. After all, giants are mostly mighty, brave big guys. Natural reckless muscle heads. Yet the Heim that was before him was the opposite of giants in his mind because of his intelligence.
'Damned human!' Heim gritted his teeth, but didn't dare to turn back. He just silently endured the humiliation. He could not help but feel aggrieved.
After all, when did such a mighty leader, S rank a golden giant like him, suffer such shame? His pride couldn't take it. But he knew that life is important.
So Heim continued to run without the intention of stopping. But just after a few seconds, he saw Fein suddenly pop out in front of him like a ghost. Heim quickly responded. He wrapped his fist with shocking force and threw a punch toward Fein, who now had a smirk on his face.
"You damned human! I didn't want to be entangled with you, but keep chasing me! Now, you forced me with this. Die!"
Heim growled at the top of his voice. Giants have a particularly deep voice when they talk and a low pitch tone. His fist visibly oscillated, and the air and light cracked as the shock force in Hein's fist continued to manifest.
Fein faced the fist head-on with a wide grin on his face. He looks as if he was enjoying the battle. His rhythm, positioning, reaction speed, and analysis of abiotic factors were on point. His every move was specific and precise, not wasteful, and perfectly timed. Unfortunately, the shock in the air was disrupting his posture in the mid-air.
When the fist was about to land on Fein's nose, it went through under the astonished eye of Heim. Fein was like a non-existent projector. He didn't feel any touch or substance, like his fist hitting the air.
Fein at this moment sheath and unsheathed his sword in just 0.1 seconds. His hands didn't even look like they were moved.
SHINGG!!
The sound of the blade released echoed to the ear of the golden giant, then he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest. Fein, once again, appeared two meters away from Heim's position.
At this moment, Fein scanned Heim's sorry figure. He has a huge gashed on his chest, and the golden armor on his body was wrecked, which has the shape of his Abyssal Blade. What's fortunate is, it didn't reach his heart.
'Damn, my his bones were so durable.' When the sword hits the chest, Fein felt the slight resistance of the bones, and it had been stuck for a while. It was the first time that he felt that with his sword. 'As expected of SS rank defense, without my full-powered attack, I won't be able to take them down.'
"Y-you! Why did my fist just pass through you!? Is that your ability? Or a space elemental technique!?" Heim looked at Fein with a fearful expression at this time.
"So you're really aware of elemental techniques' existence, eh?" Fein said with interest. "Well, I've been meaning to ask for a while. Where did you learn your elemental technique? Is it learned, or has someone imparted it to you?"
"Huh? Where did I get it? Why would I say? Don't make me a fool."
"Well, since you don't want to talk... That's it." On the ground, hundreds of trees suddenly sprouted out of nowhere. The trees were a hundred meters, and they began to entangle the feet, arms, waist, and neck of Heim. Heim tried to remove the branches that bound him, but even if he remove one, another branch would replace them. He could even barely move due to how tight they were.
