Chapter 185: Third-Person Thrill

'How do I stand up?!' Prince Julio was stuck, 'What's the point of being big if I can't move at all!?'

No matter how he moved, he could only move his limbs but there was no way to push himself upwards.

'What's the point at all!? Isn't it just better to be smaller? Or is this the weakness of the Hundred Beast Assimilation? Then aren't I just a big target then!? I can only fall once and that is all to it?'

'This shouldn't be. Its weakness defeats the strength. So all I can do is one fall and that's it!? Isn't this a lame and weak elesp!?' amidst Prince Julio's frustration, that voice entered his head again.

[Move using earth.]

[You are no longer just one soul]

[Energy becomes the muscle and fuel.]

Suddenly, an inspiration fell onto the prince's head.

'That's it! I'm trying to move this body by thinking of moving it! This is not my original body that is controlled only by my mind! This body is not moved by muscles but instead by elemental energy! After all, this body is created by Earth Element alone!'

From those three sentences, Prince Julio was able to break through his predicament.

'Ancestor Haliviana is so mighty and intelligent! Serving this kind of character brings pride instead!' the prince found resolution but then thought for a while, 'She trusts me so much that she believes that I can comprehend the profundities of this elesp by just those three sentences. It seemed like I am not only very handsome, that girls would feel like I'm out of their league to the point that they avoid me, but also, I am very talented!'

While Prince Julio was about to make a smug look, the voice entered his mind again.

[Just shut up and do the job, worthless and brainless untalented pig! Don't waste my limited voice!]

'... ouch....'

Prince Julio became speechless and a bit hurt. He was always offended if he was called a pig but knowing the difference between power. he couldn't get angry, only hurt.

For Haliviana to reserve her "voice" but still use it to insult him, is definitely saying something.

Enough about that. It seemed like time is limited. Prince Julio immediately used the elemental energy around him when suddenly.

Swoosh-- BOOM!!*

Grr...!

A heavy roar travel far and wide as a huge chunk of earth fell off the giant's head after that sonic boom and explosion.

However, after that, it never stopped.

Huge spheres of fire enlarged one after another. Objects near its proximity were destroyed just from its impact alone. It was as if missiles were thrown at this moving mountain!

'What is it!? What's that!? Goddamnit! A few of beasts' souls were removed just a few seconds of that attack!' Prince Julio inside the giant was infuriated. Before he could even unleash his full potential, he would be robbed of it in front of him?

Hell no!

Roar---!

The giant opened its mouth and it began to move.

'Be conscious about it! I did not only assimilate the body but also the beasts' souls. I have to use them, not just my own soul!'

That was when the giant finally moved according to his will. Although the movement was still bad, if compared to the last time where he would step on his own hair, it was still better.

'And why the hell do I have hair!?' the prince inwardly questioned but soon just shrugged it aside.

What's important now is not that but how to deal with these attacks.

'Where is it coming from!?'

"It is starting to move. That is the first step and after that, it will eventually realize it can also use an elesp." Darea calmly warned but there was nothing that could be done. Avion was already at his fastest.

"If only I can just destroy its limbs!" Avion shouted as he threw a couple of Blast Throws at its maximum power, breaking the sound barrier multiple times!

Avion's ears would bleed from these but just one Revert and poof, he's fixed. But it never reached that point since he would stop time as fast as he could react.

"You can't do that. Incapacitating it would only make it worse." Darea frowned at this.

"Yeah, I kind of figured it out." Avion bitterly smiled, "This is not a normal stone giant. Although I will limit its movement-... Ha!"

BOOM!!*

"Although you will limit its movement, it will not conveniently give up. By doing so, this giant will resort to other alternatives and will find its true strength." Darea continued Avion's words with a smile.

"You're actually pretty smart..." the Conqueress hummed.

"I will take that as a praise." Avion laughed. He was profusely sweating. This is because it was his mental energy that's being used which Revert cannot retrieve.

Despite the fact that he would be able to escape the air pressure since he would stop time immediately.

But as soon as that sharp pain was registered to his body, he would activate his ability. His reaction speed was getting faster and faster, since after all if he was slow, that hellish pain will plague him.

It's like a stick that will slap him if he delays it even by a fraction of a second. In this case, this stick makes him fly meters away due to the strong air pressure pushing him.

This usually not happens since, by the time the air pressure reaches him, he will stop time and change location. By that, another weakness was covered.

'It takes a lot of effort though.' Avion bitterly smiled.

Every Blast Throw hits the giant's face, treating it as the only fatal spot of the entire body!

"Although the core should be where the heart would be, you can't go underneath to directly hit it. But also, you can't wait for it to position itself or else, that would be digging your own grave." Darea was interested in this. It's like a huge gamble.

If she were to participate in this battle, it will instantly end with her as the victor. And... that is boring. Seeing how Avion rises to the challenge, knowing that the consequences are real makes it exciting and thrilling.

'Even though I am not in the battle, I feel the excitement!' Darea clutched her fists as she widely smiled, "You can do it, Av-"

BOOM!* 

Time stopped.

"Whew!" Avion subconsciously wept his forehead despite there not having a single bead of sweat, "Did you say something, Master?"
