Chapter 26 New Skill
**KkrrrrrRRRrrr!
The leopard’s growling sounds towards the adventurers became more frequent as attacks continued to hit it. It flinched and was unable to move its body as it wanted.
It was because all the people were aiming their attacks at its blasted eye, following someone’s words.
And at that moment, the final strike came. When blueish-white-coloured compressed lightning struck its eyes, a devastating amount of blood burst out from its wound again!
Laurene had finally launched her attack.
It was an original spell she created, combining the knowledge of the previous hero she possessed and the new knowledge she gained learning under Chief court mage, Jenson.
“Bang!”
At her words, the compressed lightning exploded and damaged the leopard even further.
**KuAaaaAaaa!
Evan took this time to grab a nearby adventurer he saw holding a certain gadget and take said gadget from him before returning his gaze to the Leopard.
Even while it was growling in weird pronunciations after getting struck by lightning, it still didn’t turn its gaze away from Evan and kicked off the ground.
Was it planning to crash head on at full speed?
This was what he wanted. Evan also pulled the sword he was holding, backed a little in a slanted position and increased his speed.
“Uooooooooooooh!”
While he was running, there was something that automatically began to boil in his heart. He didn’t hold that in and spat it out as he pulled the sword back even more.
There was just 100 meters between him and the leopard. That became 50 meters in a blink of an eye, and under breath’s time, it turned to zero.
The leopard swung its paw as it threw its body. At the attack, from which he could feel that its desire to trample him flat no matter the cost, Evan also reacted in a similar manner.
Before its front paw attacked him, he had held up a spear he had picked up from the ground, probably belonging to one of the adventurers and smashed it onto the ground, flying up from the rebound!
However, immediately after that, he smashed into the leopard’s face along with a puff of green smoke.
“Evan!”
The shock was large. He felt as if his inner organs were all displaced for a moment. His entire body ached and went numb.
However, the expected death by being crushed by the leopard didn’t happen.
Right before he hit the leopard, he had muttered one word.
“Paladin.”
His sword had struck the leopard’s face again, inflicting more damage than before. He also used a small poison bomb that he had strapped to his belt on his waist.
The paladin skill granted him increased resistance to poison, so he wasn’t affected much.
The leopard, which was put in a situation where it was no different from having washed its face with a bucket of poison, ran around wildly while howling in pain.
This time, Evan pulled out the blades from his gloves and boots and fixed himself on the leopard’s face as if striking a nail into a cliff in order to not fall off from its body, when it was swaying its head so much.
Then, he nimbly avoided its front paw which was flung at him, and moved around. In that process, it was continuously damaged by the blade as he dragged it around the leopard’s body.
He used one of his swords as a pin to hold himself onto the leopard’s body and used the other to strike at it consecutively.
Whether it was the armour or his clothes underneath, it was soaked in leopard blood, but Evan didn’t stop.
No matter how the leopard trashed around, he didn’t sway and he struck the same place with an accuracy greater than that of a machines’, frighteningly repetitively.
His arm muscles, which were trained to the limit, and the untrembling sword, even with a shocking amount of physical shock, pierced its hide and pulled out blood!
**KuuurrraaAAaaa!
Laurene launched another magic attack, this time, it was fire magic, an attribute she rarely used, but she was still very proficient in it.
The enormous fireball hit the leopard right in the face.
It was that moment the adventurers finally took notice of the girl who was behind them and was shooting powerful magic attacks.
She fired more at it, alternating between fire, lightning and wind. Her three best affinities.
At one moment, the leopard stopped trying to trash around and it swayed as it couldn’t extend its front leg. It had become dizzy due to the blood loss from Evan and Laurene’s continuous attacks.
This was the opportunity that the adventurers were looking for so much.
“It’s slowing down!”
“Corner it more, more!”
The moment the target was acquired, all the people in that area started an all-out attack. The mages fired their strongest spells, and the close combat attackers approached it from the other side of the line of fire and slashed its leg and beat it.
Honestly, most of them were within the range of levels 10- 20 or 25, their individual attacks didn’t mean much to a level 55 monster.
However, when it stacked ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand times, it eventually produced a result of the hide being pierced and the muscles being injured.
Human wave tactics weren’t scary for nothing.
At this moment, in front of the human’s (and beastkin) will which agglomerated on survival, the monster keeled.
Then a message appeared in front of him.
[The goddess ‘Artemisia’ urges you to kill that monster quickly.]
Evan shook slightly, he did not know why, however, the fact that she urged him to kill it quickly meant something bad was about to happen.
He jumped off the monster’s back, right in time to dodge the wave of magic power that spread from its body.
The wave pushed back all the close combat attackers who were trying to get hits in, Evan was also slightly affected.
He landed on the ground and appraised the monster while drinking a health potion.

Looking at the status he instantly noticed the difference.
‘Its existence level increased and it gained a new skill.’
He looked at the skill’s description immediately while locking eyes with the leopard’s remaining eye.

He immediately activated his mystic eye of mimicry, since he maintained eye contact for more than 10 seconds, knew the name and effect of the skill, all the conditions to mimic it were met.

He was about to do a guts pose before he noticed something, the leopard’s mouth was open.
“Shit!! Everyone duck!!!”
The adventurers would not normally listen to a kid who was young enough to be some of their sons, however, after seeing the power he displayed, they chose to trust him rather than keep their pride.
Unfortunately, some refused to listen, that was expected, they were in a dungeon with the ‘Arrogance’ status effect.
The reason why none of them ran away even though they could not defeat this monster was because of that effect.
Those who did not listen to Evan’s words, did not live to hear what he said next.
“F*ck!”
**BOOooOOM
