The fistâs movement made the air freeze. Even though there was some distance between them, Yong-Ho felt the cold.
Their eyes met.
He couldnât see the hard muscle that they had through the years of training, the strong impression Foras had despite his old age and the white hair that formed due to the coldness.
Just his eyes.
His blue-gray eyes were filled with bloodthirstiness caught his attention. It looked like Foras was going to release a roar soon.
âSkulllll!â
That sound broke the time that stood still. Instead of looking behind her, Catalina hugged Yong-Ho and rolled a few times. Even though it was a little, when they were further away, both of them bounced to their feet almost at the same time and wielded their weapons.
Skull, who was stuck to the door, targeted Forasâs back and waved their hammer. It was fast and on point, but the attack was a failure because they yelled out their name.
The hammer cut through the air.
Despite the pressing situation, Foras calmly moved his body, dodged Skullâs hammer and counterattacked. The moment Yong-Ho and Catalina stood up from the ground, their attack pierced through Skullâs armor and hit their side.
Their armor was damaged. Skullâs body flew towards the wall as if they were hit by a car.
And the fire that filled the room disappeared. There wasnât time to determine how many Orcs were alive and out of them, how many are able to fight.
Despite being tired, the salamander attacked Forasâs legs with their tail. It was a fast attack, but Foras lightly jumped and dodged their attack as if they were able to predict the salamanderâs attack. Instead of attacking the salamander, the moment they landed, they kicked off the ground and charged towards Yong-Ho and Catalina.
Catalina quickly released an arrow. The arrow pierced into Forasâs shoulder, but it wasnât enough to stop them from charging towards them. In a blink of an eye, the distance between Foras and Yong-Ho closed and Foras kept on throwing punches.
They punched the air again. The cold air from the fist filled the surrounding.
Yong-Ho managed to move to the side and barely dodged their attack, but he didnât think about counterattacking. The moment Forasâs fist missed him, Yong-Hoâs eyes met with Forasâs and when he did, the flames of Greed rose up. The fire that he randomly shot out enveloped Yong-Ho.
Foras saw the fire in front of him and instinctively backed away. After seeing the cold air in front of him, Yong-Ho increased the distance instead of striking with Aamon.
And during that opening is when he would attack. When it came to numbers, Foras had the advantage, but in the current room, Yong-Ho had the advantage.
The Clay Golem looked like they threw their body as they attacked Foras. Under Eligorâs command, the Rock Golem and the Goblins ran towards the entrance and Catalina turned her body towards Yong-Ho.
Skull, who was hit against the wall and fell to the floor, raised their head up.
âRoaaaaaaar!â
An Orc charged through the door while roaring. It was Forasâs Orc guard, Busker Gokun.
The other Orcs were standing up as well. If all of them enter the room, then this battle will be over.
âSkullllll!â
Skull yelled out again. It was an attempt to catch Busker Gokunâs attention, but it didnât work. However, the Rock Golem arrived just in time to charge against them.
It was a confusing fight. They were in a situation where they had to focus only on the enemies that were in front of them. Yong-Ho instinctively distanced himself more and tightened his grip on Aamon. The blue mana flowed around the Clay Golem and enveloped them. The Clay Golem was charging on like a car, but they couldnât anymore. A white frost covered their body and moments later, their body started crumbling!
Yong-Ho didnât think any longer. He gathered his mana. The sound of Gokun and the other Orcs fighting around the small door didnât interrupt Yong-Hoâs concentration.
He saw blue mana. As they punched into the Clay Golem with their cold fist, they cooled the liquid from the inside and caused them to collapse. Foras kept on letting out a horrible shriek and charged towards Yong-Ho.
Yong-Ho slashed using Aamon. At the tip of the blade, the fire of Greed was released towards Foras.
Foras didnât try to dodge it. His power emitted cold air and as it enveloped their two fists, they extended it out and tried to punch through the fire.
Punching completely through was too much. But, he was able to create a gap like when they first invaded. Foras opened the fire with both of his hands and jumped as if they were going to soar.
Animal. Beast.
He couldnât think of any other words to describe Foras. Foras looked down at Yong-Ho with bloodthirsty eyes and roared and Yong-Ho looked back at Foras and roared back. The Treant was waiting for the right moment and when the cold and fire were mixed into the air, they extended their vines out.
As soon as they wrapped it around Forasâs body, their vines froze. Some even started falling apart.
But, it was enough to buy some time. Foras planned on directly attacking Yong-Ho after passing through the fire, but they were held back and Yong-Ho and Catalina didnât miss their chance.
âRoaaaaaar!â
The roar that was peculiar to the Orc clan disturbed both of them. The Orc, Busker Gokun, picked up the axe without any hesitation and was about to throw the axe at Yong-Ho and Catalina.
âSkullllllll!â
Skull noticed and threw themselves at Gokun. The salamander gathered their remaining energy and spit out fire towards the Orcs again.
It was a mess. Yong-Ho slashed with Aamon and Foras moved his body to the side of Yong-Ho and dodged Aamon. Then, they punched Yong-Ho hard with their right arm.
He couldnât dodge it or block it. Foras punched Yong-Hoâs side harder than he had imagined and the coldness that was created by the blue mana was trying to deteriorate Yong-Hoâs flesh and blood. Catalina released an angry scream and charged towards Foras.
Catalinaâs strength was her shocking agility that was based on her emotions. Catalina lowered her body as if she was crawling and after going around his side, she targeted his back.
But her attack was predictable.
Even though Foras couldnât move as fast as her, he predicted on how she was going to attack. She was going to pierce into his neck with her dagger, so he moved to make sure the dagger pierced into his back instead. Once he felt the sharp dagger pierce into his back, he violently moved around. Instead of shaking off Catalinaâs light body, he extended his left arm out and grabbed a part of her body. He then spun her body and punched her.
Forasâs left fist punched Catalinaâs abdomen. It was so strong that it wouldnât be odd if his fist ripped through her thin body.
Instead of screaming out in pain, Catalina spat out blood instead. She couldnât move her arms and legs and from Forasâs fist, the coldness started eating away Catalinaâs body.
âNooooo!â
Eligor charged. However, Foras wasnât the type to stand there and get hit by a simple attack. He moved his legs and dodged in a way that looked like he was making fun of him and because Eligor attacked the air, it ruined his stance, which allowed Foras to attack his side.
There was a coldness this time too. Eligor let out a moan and fell.
And then there was fire. The green fire enveloped Foras, Catalin and Eligor.
Foras quickly released the cold air. The fire didnât invade Foras. But it didnât matter to Yong-Ho. The fire was released to cover the sight, not to attack.
Even though Yong-Ho experienced one blow, he couldnât really move his body. There was a big difference in skills. It was different from the other insignificant demons that he fought before.
Yong-Ho charged into the fire. He targeted Forasâs back and extended Aamon towards them.
He attacked the air again. Through the flames, Yong-Ho saw Forasâs eyes. After releasing the cold air, Foras turned around and twisted his body, which was enough to dodge Yong-Hoâs attack. The distance between them naturally closed and Foras used their right fist to attack Yong-Ho.
In that explosive moment.
The arrow that Catalina desperately shot pierced into Forasâs leg. Like the first one, there was poison on it and it caused Foras to stop moving.
Yong-Ho didnât see it. The moment Foras dodged Aamon, Yong-Ho extended out his left hand towards Forasâs neck.
He couldnât reach it properly. It wasnât an attack to punch through or bash Foras. However, that was enough.
Kaiwanâs ring gushed out mana. The Power of Distortion was activated and as it distorted the space, it created an intangible shield. It hit Forasâs neck and it wasnât an exaggeration to say that this was the starting point!
The neck is one of the vital points that was difficult to train. The unexpected blow caused Foras to lose his stance. Yong-Ho didnât let the chance pass by. He used Aamon and pierced into Forasâs side. He then released fire through the tip of the blade.
âGah!â
Foras resisted. The mana that was filled with coldness started approaching near Aamon. Yong-Ho didnât pour in more mana. Forasâs mouth was wide open as he let out a scream and Yong-Ho shoved his left hand inside of his mouth. He activated the Power of Distortion once more!
He heard a disturbing sound. Yong-Hoâs left hand was pushed out and red blood covered Yong-Hoâs face. Both Foras and Yong-Ho collapsed to the floor.
This wasnât the end. Despite of their jaw being destroyed and their mouth ripped, Foras didnât stop resisting. Yong-Ho focused all of his senses on Aamon. He twisted Aamon into Foras and poured out all of his mana. The green flame started eating the coldness.
Foras grabbed Yong-Hoâs neck. But they couldnât strangle or break his neck. Yong-Ho looked straight into Forasâs eyes. He commanded the Spirit of the Dungeon and focused the dungeonâs remaining mana on Aamon. Instead of releasing a large flame, Aamon burned Forasâs mana by using a small, cohesive force.
âMaster!â
Busker Gokun yelled. Despite the fact that their pelvis was destroyed because of the huge axe, Skull didnât let Gokun go. Salamander spit out fire again and Yon, pierced Gokunâs neck with a spear while he was focused on Foras and Skull. Another Orcsâs sword attack cut Yonâs lower body. Blood was flowing out.
War.
It wasnât over. Thatâs why Yong-Ho placed his left hand on top of Forasâs chest. The coldness climbed up his hand like a final curse and he absorbed hit. Greedâs fire swallowed Forasâs cold spirit.
Spirit absorption.
A change through that.
It was more painful than pleasurable and it filled Yong-Hoâs body and spirit.
It was different from before. It was different from when he absorbed the spirit of someone that was weaker or on the same level as him.
Owner Foras.
The Demon of Coldness.
Even though his power wasnât that strong, he was the owner of the dungeon that protected the house for over 70 years.
He absorbed the spirit of someone stronger.
Greed didnât throw away the coldness and the Power of Evolution displayed the effective change.
He swallowed Forasâs mana.
Mana was the base of a demon.

Yong-Ho lifted his head. A third horn appeared on his forehead and he was able to feel a huge amount of mana flowing.
