Oliver’s body was instantly covered by a dark black aura. All of his attire transformed into black, while his golden eyes changed into deep black ones. Even his hairstyle changed slightly, with parts of his hair braided along the front and sides.
At a single glance, he looked like the very embodiment of an assassin.
Oliver looked satisfied after seeing his transformation. He lightly jumped once and immediately felt how incredibly light his body had become.
"Flora, protect Travers and the others. Queen, let’s go!" Oliver ordered. He then charged forward at terrifying speed together with Queen.
On the other side, Ovan, Lakshmi, and Jermain all immediately underwent Partial Form transformations following Nanya’s orders.
Ovan’s body became partially covered in tough red scales, especially around his arms. Together with Scarvym, he used pure strength to hold one of the Brumegroves in place.
At that moment, Nanya arrived. With a single powerful kick, she smashed the Brumegrove’s head apart instantly. The boss monster was immediately defeated.
Meanwhile, Lakshmi continuously produced large amounts of water from her mouth together with Tsunamite, flooding the battlefield and greatly restricting the Brumegroves’ movements as their feet became trapped within deep water pools.
Jermain then used his electrified claws to release powerful shocks into the water, electrocuting all the affected Brumegroves simultaneously.
The group managed to subdue the five Brumegroves surprisingly easily through their teamwork.
Suddenly, another Brumegrove emerged from the ground directly behind Lakshmi and instantly grabbed her leg tightly.
"Ahhh! My leg!" Lakshmi screamed while desperately trying to free herself.
Tsunamite immediately rushed forward and attempted to slash the monster’s arm. However, another massive hand suddenly struck Tsunamite and sent it flying several meters away.
"Tsunamite!" Lakshmi shouted anxiously.
"Lakshmi!" Nanya was just about to move and help her when three more Brumegroves suddenly emerged from the ground and surrounded her completely.
At the same time, Ovan and Jermain were also attacked individually by additional Brumegroves.
Nanya quickly glanced toward Brumetitan in the distance. Its gigantic hands thrusted into the ground as though it was endlessly pumping Brumegroves out from beneath the earth itself.
"Help! Help!" Lakshmi begging from help as she was being pulled toward the ground.
Nanya could only grit her teeth helplessly as the surrounding monsters completely restrained her movements. Suddenly, she noticed something moving above them.
"Thread Execution!"
SHIIING!!
Under the sunlight, countless razor-thin threads suddenly appeared in the air and wrapped around the arm of the Brumegrove holding Lakshmi. The next second, the monster’s arm was sliced apart into countless pieces.
"GRAARR!!"
The Brumegrove roared painfully. Lakshmi immediately pulled herself free before quickly looking upward in shock. The person who had saved her was the boy she previously thought was useless.
At that moment, Oliver was floating in the air. Then, while falling downward, he twisted his body sideways and slashed directly across the Brumegrove’s head. The monster instantly collapsed dead.
[Critical Strike!]
A notification immediately appeared before Oliver’s eyes.
"Good!" Oliver muttered with a satisfied smile. Without wasting another second, he immediately rushed toward Nanya’s side.
One of the Brumegroves surrounding her tried to grab him the moment he approached. However, instead of dodging, Oliver confronted it head-on.
"Dominating Blow!"
BAM!!
The attack instantly stunned the monster briefly. Oliver immediately jumped onto its massive arm before sprinting straight toward its head.
"Assault Slash!"
His dagger sliced cleanly through the Brumegrove’s neck, causing its head to fall from its body.
"Very strong." Nanya muttered in surprise after witnessing Oliver’s performance. As the pressure around her lessened slightly, she immediately counterattacked.
With a powerful kick, she smashed one of the Brumegroves’ legs and caused the monster to stumble forward. Then, she finished it with a devastating uppercut.
’Strong...this academy teacher is good.’ Oliver thought while stealing a quick glance toward Nanya as they fought side by side.
On the other side, Queen effortlessly defeated the two Brumegroves attacking Ovan and Jermain. However, both of them were immediately startled after seeing her enormous figure and instinctively prepared to attack.
"Wait! Don’t attack her! She’s my monster." Oliver quickly shouted while approaching them.
"Y-Your monster? With that size?! What rank is it?" Ovan asked while looking upward at Queen’s towering body. At seven meters tall, Queen was actually even larger than Brumetitan itself. Nanya and the others were also visibly shocked by her presence.
Even their monsters were growling nervously toward Queen.
"Rank A." Oliver answered casually. By now, he was already used to receiving reactions like this. However, only Oliver truly understood the massive difference between a normal Rank A monster and a Rank A Boss Monster. And on top of that, Queen was also a mutated boss.
"Thank you for saving Lakshmi earlier. Can you help us fight this boss? Your assistance would really help." Nanya asked.
"I was already planning to." Oliver replied.
Meanwhile, Brumetitan suddenly slammed its hands into the ground once again. Another wave of Brumebarks emerged from beneath the earth.
"How many of these things can it keep summoning?!" Jermain shouted in frustration.
"It can’t possibly produce them forever. There must be some kind of weakness." Oliver said while staring toward Brumetitan.
The four of you focus on handling the Brumegroves. I’ll target the main boss directly." Oliver ordered decisively.
"Hey! I don’t take orders from anyone except our teacher!" Ovan immediately protested.
"Ovan! This time, I agree with him. We need to work together if we want to defeat this boss." Nanya interrupted seriously.
"Tch... fine!" Ovan clicked his tongue in annoyance.
"Alright then, let’s go smash all of them!" Oliver shouted before rushing forward. The others quickly followed behind him.
The climax of the battle was finally approaching!
