Capítulo 11: 11 - WAKE UP!

The King of the Rats was already big, but now it was getting bigger. The monster's muscles began to pulse and in the blink of an eye its size had increased by at least 20%. The rat bared its strange, huge, yellowish fangs and, looking at them clearly, those large pieces of calcium were sharper than ever.

Most of the Blessed in the room were frozen with fear, not just because of the appearance of the Super Boss, but because of the aura he was giving off. It was as if the humans were looking at the personification of Death itself. The large monster at that moment embodied the end of life in their minds. Time seemed as if to freeze for the Blessed, especially for the weakest among them who felt that pressure several times stronger.

*Schreeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!* The rat screamed as it glared at the human who had burned it, before running towards him to take revenge.

Noah was no different from the other Blessed in regard to the pressure. Even though he participated in fortress invasions for four years and researched everything about the lowest fortresses, theoretical knowledge would not always solve all of one's problems. This was the first time he had felt an aura so strong and so evil, all the more because that aura was apparently being directed at him by the rage of the rat.

For a few moments, Noah was unable to move from the spot where he stood because of the terror he felt.

"We're fucked," he sighed as he tried to gather the strength to get out of the place, but the body he trained so much to be agile, at that moment, seemed to weigh more than a ton.

As if the world were in slow motion, Noah saw the rat running towards him with its red-hot eyes, and realizing that his body was not responding to what he asked for, despair started to hit him. 'I need to be stronger!' He screamed mentally as he struggled to move.

While the king of rats was preparing to jump on Noah, a big man stuck his sword in the monster's neck while screaming, "WAKE UP! IF YOU DO NOT WAKE UP, WE WILL ALL DIE!"

Hearing the scream that the scarred man gave, some of the Blessed finally broke free from the fear they were feeling and drew their own weapons as they ran to the big rat to support the scarred man. Noah was also able to recover from the state he was in because of the scream of the scar man, but unlike the others who only thought of running towards the King of Rats, Noah was first surprised that the scar man had recovered so quickly. But right after that he summoned a small and clumsy fireball and waited for the perfect opportunity to attack the Rat King, who was frantically fighting with the Blessed ones who fought hand-to-hand. However, what none of the Blessed ones noticed was the great cut that the king of rats had cut on the scarred man while he shouted for the others to wake up.

It didn't take long for the perfect opportunity that Noah was looking for to emerge, because in a few moments an ice rock flew by Noah towards the King of Rats and when the big monster went to dodge the ice, a woman with a strange shaped half-moon blade saw that during the strange movement the rat had made to deflect the ice, he had left his rib area exposed. Without thinking twice, she slammed the blade at the weakness.

However, unfortunately for the Blessed woman, the Super Boss had also apparently become faster, because when the woman stretched her arm while slamming the blade, the rat opened its huge mouth, intercepting her, and with a single bite tore off a large piece of her shoulder. The closed, dark place echoed once again with a painful cry.

However, the huge rat with its mouth ajar had not gone unnoticed by Noah. As the rat was opening its mouth again, being distracted by concentrating on which Blessed he would bite next, it did not notice the strange fireball flying towards him until it was too late.

*Schreeeeeeee!!!!* The huge rat screamed once again in pain.

However, when the Blessed began to cheer up, thinking that they had almost managed to eliminate the boss, Noah noticed a strange sound of claws scraping on the floor through the sewer tunnels that connected to this room. Before he could scream to warn the others what was going to happen, it was too late. Yet another scream alerted everyone.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaarggggghhhh!!!!" The teenager who was fawning over Harry earlier screamed in pain when she felt the huge fangs of the monster that appeared out of nowhere behind her, digging into the soft flesh that was the girl's left calf.

Alerted by the scream and the bloody vision that was happening around them, the other Blessed began to pay attention to the small tunnels that were close to them, so that in case a smaller rat enters, they would not be caught off guard.

This was exactly what Noah was going to warn them about: it was the skill the King of Rats had when going into berserk mode. At some point in the monster's state of fury he would cry out, calling all the rats closest to the scene to help him. That was the reason why the team did not go straight to kill the Super Boss, but first killed several rats that were in the vicinity before they entered.

"Blessed with long range, focus on killing the smaller rats while we hold the King! Be quick, as we won't be able to hold on for long!" The scarred man shouted another command. This time everyone listened quickly, ignoring the woman who had lost part of her shoulder to the Rat King and was now lying still in a dream from which she would never wake up.

The battle at that point could not have been less chaotic. Harry was throwing rocks of ice at all the rats he could see while muttering internally, 'Hell, hell, hell! I'm a blessed Rank D, I shouldn't die in a Rank F junk fortress! Those filthy ones… when I get out of here I'm going to make these fucking Blessed Rank F pay for it.'

Wendy, who at that moment was trying to stop the bite wound of the girl who had flattered Harry, couldn't stop spying in Noah's direction. "He... That flame of his does a lot of damage to the boss; he's definitely not just a blessed Rank F... Damn Amy, if you hadn't..."

Noah, in the midst of this chaos, was using 100% of what he had practiced on footwork and mobility to be able to move almost freely among the rats while looking for a good opportunity to finally kill the King of the Rats. From the strange movements the Rat King was making, Noah knew that this was a hidden pattern that rats used to try to move without further opening their wounds.

The body of the big monster was full of cuts but even then he kept trying to bite humans. If Noah threw a fireball at one of these cuts, it would certainly hurt the Rat King, but not enough to kill him. And by the feeling of "hunger" he was having, he knew that he did not have the energy left for too many fireballs. The one he was preparing would have to be decisive.

Capítulo 12: 12 - Light

The bloody battle continued and slowly the rats were taking the lead thanks to their overwhelming numbers. During the long minutes of battle, countless corpses began to pile up on the ground in the area.

Among the various corpses of rats on the ground, there were also some human corpses, humans who unfortunately could not resist the battle and ended up having a bloody and brutal death.

Of the 15 humans who invaded this fortress, currently only 5 were alive. Noah, Harry, Wendy, the scarred man, and a Blessed man who had a Blessing that made him invisible for a second. This Blessing was what had kept him alive until now, since every time he was about to receive a fatal attack, he went invisible momentarily and deviated slightly from the place where he had been standing. However, due to the breathless state he was in with the amount of cuts he had suffered, Noah couldn't see him surviving much longer.

Not to say that the other survivors were in a much better state, since in that place no one was clean from injuries, not even Wendy who could heal. She had already given up on healing non-serious injuries to preserve energy in case an unforeseen eventuality were to happen.

Noah had found two opportunities to cause a fatal injury to the Rat King so far, but during both opportunities he found, a random rat came out of nowhere, causing Noah to change the target of the fireball to protect his own life.

From the way he was feeling, Noah knew he couldn't launch anything more than a single fireball, so at that moment it would be all or nothing. If the battle continued as it was, the only way out would be death.

The moment Noah made up his mind, the scarred man looked him in the eye, apparently looking for an answer to something. There was no need to say a single word in the exchange between the two, since a second later, the man stopped looking at him and turned towards the King of Rats with a serious look as his body began to glow brightly.

Seeing the man's body start to glow, Noah was amazed. He knew that the man was a Blessed Rank D with many years of training and battles. With this background, the power of man's Blessing should not have been weak, since he would have already trained it to at least Rank D or High Rank E strength, almost reaching Rank D.

Just as the difference between a Rank F Fortress and a Rank E Fortress is extremely large in terms of difficulty, the strength of a Blessed Rank F and a Blessed Rank E is also very far apart. Now, it goes without saying, how big the difference is between a Blessed person who has Rank F strength and a blessed person who trained and achieved Rank D strength.

That was the only reason Noah held on so much, as he knew that as the person who was fighting physically and holding the King of the Rats was the scar man, who probably had a Rank D force or at least close to that rank. So even though something really bad happened, the man would probably still have a card up his sleeve so he could win them more time.

Even though he had participated in some Rank F fortress raids with the man, Noah had never seen him use the blessing he had. Not that in any invasion that was extremely necessary, since the experience that the man had on his own already gave a great advantage to the group, making the invasions always happen more smoothly than normal.

So, Noah couldn't help being curiously excited to know what the Blessing of this man was and why he hadn't used it until now since it was probably such a powerful Blessing he probably could have saved the lives of several Blessed Ones who died in the battle.

With the man's body starting to glow, the other smaller rats were attracted to it and completely abandoned the fight they were having with the other Blessed before running madly towards the man who now shone.

The man apparently knew this was going to happen and did not panic; he just shouted out loud to the other Blessed Ones. "This will be the only chance to end this! Load your best attacks to end this once and for all!"

From the tone of voice the man was using, Noah had sensed that he would use something very important and that if they were unable to end the battle now, they would have no other choice but to just die there. Without thinking twice, he summoned the biggest fireball he could with what little energy he had left and kept moving quickly in the distance, looking for the best angle.

Harry was also getting ready, even though several places on his body were cut and injured. He raised both hands and used the rest of his strength he had to summon a huge ice rock with a sharp tip that floated just above his head, waiting to be hurled at the King of Rats, while Wendy desperately healed the body of the man who could turn invisible so he wouldn't die.

Even while they displayed several openings, none of the rats even looked at them and just focused on the man who was now shining much more, including the King of Rats, who didn't even care about the danger that Noah's flame represented to him.

When the rats were close enough, momentarily all the light that the man was emitting disappeared, until it came back again. But this time, it came back not just as a light, but as several laser rays that pierced the flesh of all the monsters within 15 meters of himself.

Seeing that the weaker monsters died instantly, but that the King of the Rats was still alive despite being badly wounded, Harry immediately hurled the big ice rock at the King of Rats, who failed to react fast enough and received a huge cut which further opened the wound that the lasers had caused on his skin.

At that point, the King of Rats had a bad feeling when he returned to rationality and remembered that there was a human with an extremely dangerous flame among these people. But before he could try to jump from where he was, the fireball he had so much feared hit him perfectly on the huge cut he had suffered.

If before the flame entering his throat had already hurt a lot, this time the flame penetrated a huge cut that caused the rat to completely lose its rationality and scream in pain and despair before finally losing the strength to do so, letting its head fall to the floor.

Seeing that none of the monsters moved or made any kind of noise, the Blessed Ones let out a sigh and had different reactions.

The man who could turn invisible, now with his own wound already stabilized, finally lay down with his head on the ground and rested.

Wendy, who had only a little energy left, when she saw the state the scarred man was in used the little strength she had remaining to run towards him and try to help.

But that help would not do much good, since while he was shining, some rats managed to reach him through his armor and bite large pieces of meat from the man. Obviously these rats were the first to die, but the man's flesh had already been plucked in several places. If he survived now, perhaps he would no longer be known as the scarred man, but as the deformed man.

His breathing was already extremely weak; he himself had already accepted that he would not leave there alive. This ability he had was too dangerous to use normally. Because of that, the only way to get around this danger was to have a team powerful enough to protect him while he carried the light. But the team he once had, had died in the other Super Fortress together with his son, thus making him nothing more than an ordinary man who had enough experience to get by and a dangerous card up his sleeve.

Of course, because he was blessed by the God of Light, he not only had this Light Bomb skill, he was also able to slightly control the light to do some things, which helped him deceive enemies during battle and blind them for a fraction of time, but nothing that could do as much damage as the ability that awoke with his Blessing.

Some Blessed Ones, in addition to awakening the Blessing of a god, could also awaken an innate random skill, which they would be able to learn to use with much less effort and training than if they were to develop a new skill on its own. Unfortunately for the man, the ability he received came with the peculiarity of emitting a light that was strangely very attractive to the monsters, before it actually exploded, which made the ability very dangerous to use. In addition to the blessing being almost useless in a battle, it also blinded enemies and disoriented them from time to time.

Harry was sitting on the floor panting with tiredness and groaning in pain from having finally felt the wounds he received during the battle, now that the adrenaline of the battle had subsided.

Noah, on the other hand, felt like he was standing at a banquet, as the flame he had hurled at the King of Rats was still burning the big monster, and for Noah, it was like he was a man who spent the month in the jungle eating roots and now could eat several huge hamburgers to sate his own hunger... and consequently become stronger the more he ate.
