Wizard starting from shoeing donkeys

In the blink of an eye, Rein spun around and immediately dashed to the left. At the same time, he swung his dark, gloomy pig-head hammer from above, fiercely slamming it into the ground—the secret Hammer Skill technique known as “Earth-splitting Hammer”!

“Boom!”

A large clump of soil was struck hard into the air!

Almost simultaneously, Myarco’s mouth spat out a wrist-thick stream of pale-yellow, foul-smelling liquid. He swiveled his head from side to side, spraying in all directions.

One of the pirates from Jack’s crew couldn’t dodge in time and got completely drenched.

“Sss! Sss!”

The soaked pirate immediately screamed in agony. Clutching his face with both hands, he began melting like a wax figure from head to toe.

Rein’s eyes narrowed; he had thought the enemy would use sonic attacks, but instead, Myarco had sprayed some kind of highly corrosive liquid. Nonetheless, this didn’t impede Rein’s response.

Both were area attacks. The large piece of soil that Rein had just struck into the air met with the pale-yellow acid spewed by the enemy, creating a barrier like a curtain and kicking up a cloud of smoke on contact, blocking most of the liquid.

Due to the barrier of soil, only a few drops of the acid landed on Rein’s hydrosteel armor, making a sizzling corroding noise.

Seconds later, Myarco, who had stopped spraying acid, peered through the pale-yellow smoke to check the results of the attack, but suddenly, a blinding light shot out from the dissipating smoke.

The glare caught Myarco off guard, forcing him to close his eyes and hastily use his arms to block the light’s assault on his retinas!

“Scorching Light!”

It turned out that Rein had seized the moment to cast this flashbang-like witchcraft.

Immediately after, a figure burst out of the smoke—a dark greatsword aimed directly at Myarco, who was still covering his eyes!

By the time Myarco realized what was happening, the dark pig-head hammer was already inches away!

This caused his pupils to shrink in an instant. In a moment of crisis, he immediately blocked Rein’s hammer assault with the giant pincers on his hand, all the while with a ferocious expression, uttering two short, sharp tones!

“Crack!”

Myarco’s giant pincer carapace instantly shattered!

However, the tip of Rein’s pig-head hammer had pierced into the giant pincer. Suddenly, Myarco’s squidy whiskers, which had looked quite harmless, shot out and tightly coiled around Rein’s pig-head hammer.

At the same time, his mouth opened wide, as he was about to spit out that same corrosive liquid again.

Without a moment’s hesitation, Rein pushed off with the tip of his foot and, instead of withdrawing, delivered a lightning-fast uppercut straight to Myarco’s chin.

This direct hit forced Myarco’s mouth shut, immediately aborting his plan to spit the acid at close range.

Following that, instead of struggling with Myarco over the hammer, Rein grabbed the hilt of his greatsword and launched a vicious arcing slash.

A flash of light whizzed by!

“Thud!”

The sound of something heavy hitting the ground echoed.

There lay the pig-head hammer wrapped in octopus-like whisker tentacles on the ground.

Rein’s previous slash had cut off most of Myarco’s whiskers.

At the moment, pale green bodily fluid was spurting from the cut ends of Myarco’s whiskers.

“Aaah!!!”

Myarco only felt a chill on his chin, followed by an intense jolt of pain that made him scream out loud!

One must realize that his octopus-like tentacles, though appearing as whiskers, were not dead hair but rather living tissue akin to muscle.

Myarco’s complexion changed drastically. At this point, he had completely lost the desire to continue the fight.

Dammit, this Rein is even stronger than the information passed on by the Black Flame Church!

Curses, the Black Flame Church!

Even they were faking it with their Sea God Sect!

He had to return to the sect and report this news immediately.

Myarco hurriedly retreated behind him, using one of the pirates as a shield.

But Rein was relentless, delivering a 45-degree Smooth Cleaving Slash without a moment’s hesitation, cleaving the pirate into two halves and nearly spilling Myarco’s guts as well.

This action terrified the surrounding pirates, who started to flee in fear.

Myarco, in a disheveled state, once again took cover behind Captain Jack.

This turned Captain Jack’s face iron blue.

Fuck!

If you can’t beat them, run for it!

Dammit, using us as meat shields, what’s the meaning of this?

Do you think we’re idiots?

Fucking Sea God Sect!

Facing the swiftly approaching Rein, Captain Jack performed a donkey roll to the side to avoid him.

Though it was unbecoming of a pirate gang leader to dodge in such a manner, it effectively saved him from Rein’s Furious Slash.

But Myarco hadn’t expected Captain Jack to suddenly dodge, resulting in a new wound on himself, which made him no longer dare to use the pirates as shields but instead fled rapidly towards the distance.

Yet Rein was right on his heels.

With big fish in sight, he naturally didn’t care about the pirate shrimps.

Watching as the two disappeared into the distance, one chasing and the other fleeing, the remaining members of Jack’s pirate crew looked at each other in confusion. At that moment, a bearded burly man asked Captain Jack, “Boss, should we… go help?”

“Help?” Captain Jack gave his subordinate a scornful look and smacked him on the back of the head with a slap.

“Are you an idiot?”

“But boss, Myarco is from the Sea God Sect…”
