"…So that's how it is."
Alan observed quickly.
'At a certain distance… she always throws the trident.'
If he knew the pattern, he could deal with it.
Kuwooooh!
The trident came again with a loud roar.
This time—
Alan was ready.
He drank a mana potion and immediately activated his movement skill.
Peeng!
His figure vanished just before the trident reached him.
Only a faint trace of energy remained.
"Muong?"
The Queen Rat paused, scanning the area.
She tried to locate him—
But Alan had already concealed himself.
Now—
This was his chance.
"…Let's end this."
Alan reappeared above her.
"Madra War Dance."
He struck downward.
"Muoong!"
The Queen Rat reacted instantly.
Her senses were sharp enough to detect him mid-attack.
She moved to counter—
But hesitated.
Sapphire had returned.
The black cat stood ready, its glowing eyes fixed on her.
For a split second—
Her focus split.
And that was enough.
Alan's attack descended.
But it was stopped.
Clang!
The Queen Rat immediately detected Alan's position with her sharp hearing. Her reaction speed was absurd. She avoided Alan's attack and prepared to counter.
However, she hesitated for a brief moment.
It was because of Sapphire.
The black cat had already recovered and was aiming at her, ready to strike again.
'If I kill that human, it's over! Myong!'
The Queen Rat made her decision instantly.
She ignored Sapphire and focused entirely on Alan.
Her tail moved.
Peeok!
Like a sharp stinger, it struck Alan directly in the face.
At the same time, Sapphire's attack landed.
The Queen Rat stiffened for a brief moment.
That instant—
Alan was blown back by the impact of the tail.
But—
He didn't stop.
In that same moment, his figure blurred.
A decoy remained behind.
"Madra War Dance."
A voice came from behind the Queen Rat.
"…Myong!"
The Queen Rat's eyes widened.
A fake?
She turned instantly—
But there was nothing there.
For a split second, confusion appeared.
That was enough.
"Linked Kill."
The real Alan had already moved.
"Myaang!"
The Queen Rat tried to react, but the timing was off.
She barely avoided a fatal hit, but—
She couldn't regain control completely.
"Muong?"
She hesitated again.
She clearly heard Alan's voice behind her.
But there was nothing.
Then—
"Linked Kill Wave."
Alan's voice came from above.
The Queen Rat looked up too late.
Alan was already in the air.
Energy gathered around him.
Then—
Ku kwa kwa kwa kwa!
A barrage of dark energy slashes rained down.
"Kyaaaang!"
The Queen Rat screamed as the attacks hit her.
At the same time, Sapphire continued attacking from below, not giving her a chance to recover.
Alan landed at a distance and drank another mana potion.
Then—
He raised his hand again.
"…Magic."
Magic Missiles formed around him.
One.
Two.
Three.
He didn't release them immediately.
Instead, he stacked them, preparing the timing.
Soon—
Multiple spheres of mana floated around him.
From a distance, he looked like a small sun.
"Madra War Dance."
The Queen Rat reacted instantly.
She had already learned his pattern.
Paaaang!
A surge of energy burst from her body.
The pressure forced Sapphire back for a moment.
Then—
She charged forward.
"Myaang!"
Her speed increased.
She ignored everything and rushed straight toward Alan.
Alan, floating in the sky, let out a faint laugh as he watched the Queen Rat.
The moment her anger peaked—
"…Where are you looking?"
A shadow appeared behind her.
Sapphire.
In an instant, it struck.
The Queen Rat's body froze slightly as her strength dropped.
That was the opening.
"Sublime Sword."
Alan moved.
A white-haired figure appeared before the confused Queen Rat.
Sakak—!
"Myaang!"
The blade cut across her chest.
The damage was heavy.
She staggered.
Alan didn't stop.
From above—
He attacked again.
Magic Missiles gathered and fired all at once.
Peeng! Peeng! Peeng!
At the same time—
"Madra War Dance, Pinnacle Kill."
The combined attack landed directly.
Kuwaaaaaaang!
The explosion shook the entire area.
The ground cracked.
The massive tent at the center collapsed completely.
Silence followed.
The monster community that had once filled the area was gone.
Destroyed.
What had taken years to build—
Was wiped out in a single day.
Alan stood there calmly, looking at the aftermath.
However it was not over, as the dust settled the Queen rat was still there, bloodied but very much alive.
"…What is this ridiculous health?"
Alan frowned slightly.
He had already noticed it when Sapphire weakened her stamina.
The Queen Rat was clearly a tank-type monster.
Even after taking heavy damage, she still had more than half of her health left.
"…Troublesome."
Alan exhaled slowly.
His stamina was dropping.
Not dangerously low—
But enough to affect movement if the fight dragged on.
He glanced at Sapphire.
"Can you carry me out if needed?"
The black cat flicked its tail.
"Not possible."
"…Thought so."
Alan didn't dwell on it.
Running away wasn't necessary.
He could still fight.
The Queen Rat slowly stood up again.
Her body was covered in blood and dust, but her presence had only grown stronger.
"Human… you are weakened… Myaang!"
She charged forward again.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The ground shook with each step.
Alan watched her calmly.
"…Still rushing blindly."
He tightened his grip on Iyargut.
"I'll just break through."
He stepped forward instead of retreating.
"Undefeated King Swordsmanship."
His aura shifted.
Then—
"Madra War Dance."
His body moved.
Fast.
Precise.
The Queen Rat swung her trident.
Alan didn't dodge completely.
He redirected it.
Clang!
The impact slid past him.
In the same motion—
He countered.
Slash.
The blade cut into her side.
"Myaang!"
She retaliated instantly.
Her tail shot toward him.
Alan blocked with his sword and stepped back slightly.
No panic.
No hesitation.
He adjusted his breathing.
Then moved again.
Each step was controlled.
Each strike was deliberate.
Sapphire attacked from the side, forcing the Queen Rat to split her focus.
The pressure increased.
Alan continued his assault, combining both techniques smoothly.
The pressure kept rising.
The Queen Rat's movements slowly became unstable.
Her attacks were still powerful—
But no longer clean.
She was getting overwhelmed.
"Myaang!"
She swung her trident wildly.
Boom!
The ground shattered.
But Alan had already moved.
