The High-Speed Spinning Drill
Two horns, resembling those of a demon, sprouted from its head, and tiny, eerie crimson flames flickered deep within its enormous, dark eye sockets.
At the center of that enormous body, inside its chest, was a magical stone of a size beyond reason, as if protected by thick sternum and ribs.
Udaeus naturally saw the little insect standing in front of it, and rightfully attributed the pain of the lightning strike to William.
Hoohoo! Hoohoo! Hoohoo!
The flickering firelight in its empty eye sockets stared intently at William's figure, while a massive, bony hand, so black it seemed to reflect light, clenched into a fist on its left side.
With a loud whooshing sound, the bone fist swung down.
William, who had been poised to strike, was not going to stay put and wait to be smashed into a pile of minced meat.
He wasn't like Gareth, a dwarf skilled in strength who could wrestle with monsters.
Faced with the powerful blow from "Udaeus," William gripped "Cold Star Cold Moon" tightly with both hands while lowering his body.
Just as the bone fist was about to strike him, he suddenly pushed off with his right foot.
In just a moment!
The ground was instantly smashed into a huge crater a meter deep, and countless grains of sand rose up, obscuring everyone's vision.
"Is William alright?"
Tiona couldn't help but voice her concern!
A black shadow burst forth from the sandstorm, leaving a long trail of smoke behind it.
William, whom "Udaeus" had been searching for, had now reached a blind spot in its line of sight.
With another powerful stomp of his left foot, William leaped into the air like a cannonball.
At this moment, the magic stone inside "Udaeus's " chest cavity was already within his attack range.
With his right hand gripping the gun handle in a reverse grip, the black thunder above the muzzle was even more impressive than before.
With a slight twist of his waist, William reversed his descent direction in the air.
His entire being seemed to merge with the spear, transforming into a jet-black arrow that shot out rapidly.
Card!
The crisp sound of bones cracking was not the sound of magic stones shattering.
Udaeus managed to avert a crisis by clutching the giant hand that was attached to her chest at the critical moment, but the price was that the connection between her hand and the giant hand was completely shattered by William.
However, it must be said that Udaeus's response was timely.
Just as William was about to thrust forward through the palm, a strong gust of wind from the left made him abandon the idea.
He kicked Udaeus directly in the sternum with his right foot, and the force of the impact sent him flying backward. Udaeus's swing also struck his own chest.
I took a picture of nothing.
"That's outrageous! How did William break such a hard bone?!"
Tiona's mouth is wide open now, big enough to fit a goose egg.

Tiona is arguably the most qualified to speak on just how tough "Udaeus" is.
Because during each expedition of the Familia, she and her "Urga" were one of the main forces fighting against the various floor masters.
That bone was so hard; even with Urga, she had to use all her strength to cut it. But in William's hands at level 2, it was like paper.
Finn was no less shocked than Tiona. He had previously thought that William was challenging "Udaeus" to bombard her with magic and wear Udaeus down.
Ais's expression became much more serious, because she realized that the magic William used today was completely different from the magic he had used when they were exchanging couplets these past few days.
William, who landed smoothly from the air, also breathed a slight sigh of relief.
[Pierce!] That's his trump card that gives him the confidence to challenge "Udaeus".
This is different from magic like "Thunderstorm!" which increases speed, stamina, and strength throughout the body.
[Pierce!] It has only one effect: to imbue weapons with ultimate penetrating power.
The user doesn't need much strength; the tip of the spear is enough to pierce through it.
"Hey kid, watch your step!"
Gareth's loud voice snapped William back to reality. He slightly shifted his lower body, and a dark pillar rose from where he had been standing.
A sudden gust of wind whipped up William's golden hair that fell across his forehead.
"[Thunderstorm! (Thunderstorm)]"
William did not stop. Instead, his magic surged, and black lightning suddenly appeared, enveloping William entire body.
A continuous stream of black bone spikes shot out from beneath William's feet, obstructing William path as he tried to approach their bodies.
A fierce chase ensued between the jet-black bone spikes and William, who was enveloped in black lightning. Wherever William went, the bone spikes, reflecting a cold light, would inevitably follow.
"It's a bit of a stretch for this kid to do it alone!"
Gareth watched William's constantly moving figure and sighed softly.
Although Udaeus has not caused William any damage so far, William is now getting further and further away from Udaeus's main body.
Its main body is now surrounded by an impenetrable bone wall, and William can only flee around the outer edge of the bone wall, guarding against the attacks of "Udaeus".
Furthermore, William cannot jump into the air to attack now; if he remains suspended in the air at such a distance, he will only become a sitting duck for "Udaeus".
