I like them big, do you?

Chapter 156: Golden flames

It was perhaps the first time Maya charged like that...

She rushed forward with her sword sheathed, keeping her hands on it. Her blade didn\'t come out, nor did it let out any light.

Her weapon was preparing itself for that one crucial slash...

Maya\'s sword would\'ve been already cutting through countless enemies to aid her guild if it were any different battle. She supported many!

\'It might not be the first time I alone rushed at the enemy,\' Maya\'s eyes rose to look at the abomination\'s face.

Those big eyes didn\'t give her any attention.

Still, Maya didn\'t care. She didn\'t look forward to some monster\'s attention, nor did she want to be friends with an existence that wanted to erase the whole world\'s mana...

This world without mana would lose its charm.

\'I will face many more enemies such as this one! I wonder if I will be able to deal with them independently?\' Maya asked herself inwardly as her lips curved up.

That thought flared Maya\'s mana as she pondered about the future in the Faynom World. She just thought about her future, yet her mana ignited.

It began her serious first step toward more excellent and more heroic power!

Her thoughts became different the moment the sky turned scarlet. One person remained on her mind, and the hero\'s heart warmed up. It was also quite loud.

As many more skills decorated the sky and aided the hero\'s friend, Maya\'s thoughts utterly halted.

She focused on her task so much that focus contorted her baby face.

ROAR!

One roar from the abomination faltered Maya\'s resolution! She quickly shook off all faults and sped up, though!

At last, the roar Maya felt secured by rang out in her ears.

That was the moment when the Crimson Dragon brought down the sky along with its rush! All that power darted toward Maya!

Her game system flashed with a few messages she couldn\'t really care about now.

"Hero\'s Slash!" Maya shouted one of her most used skills.

That skill usually sucked out all mana from her guild members, but the current target was much different.

It was Crown Mana that went to her sword!

The amount was still higher than that of all guild members combined... Its quality topped over most mana in the world!

Thus, Hero\'s Slash shone differently.

It brimmed with golden color, but the flames waved from it!

Maya held that sword with her lips bitten. That mana wrapped her body in a heavy toil, a one that left her pinned down in one place.

She couldn\'t move but just stared at the golden sword with flames waving like a flag... Her sword melted under that mana, and it seemed like Maya would soon lose that power!

\'No! I won\'t lose it!\' Maya cried inwardly as the words she said to Reylin rang out in her ears.

She also saw her good friend\'s smile and how much trust he put into her! Those feelings supported the hero and pushed her forward.

Maya\'s sword rose despite the heavy burden pinning her down!

She broke those shackles with her strong will!

"Too late!" Maya shouted as she noticed the abomination\'s gaze.

Those eyes and its lion head had been covered in scarlet scales. Those scales would\'ve perfectly defended it against Reylin\'s flames and ensured its charge would keep going forward.

However, within that golden sword and its flames, the abomination felt the sharpness it couldn\'t understand.

Maya\'s sword and its energy surged, becoming the pillar on the battlefield. A pillar worthy of her class.

Her mana turned into a sword, and it was much, much higher than the abomination itself! That sword towered before the beast for a few seconds, then the hero slashed it down, bringing down even more pressure than the Crimson Dragon did!

BANG!

A clean cut swept through the lion\'s face.

Its eyes widened before the amalgamation of various bodies registered the pain... Once it did, the abomination\'s eyes snapped and the ear-piercing howl swept through the battleground!

Meanwhile, the hero\'s sword disappeared!

As it did, it sent a hot and sharp wave.

That wave flayed the scales off the abomination\'s body! All scales popped off and flew in all directions!

Some slid down its body, smearing red and bubbling blood!

A lot of blood dropped from its face, however. The blood tears were rock-sized, and they all landed near the fallen hero.

On her knees, Maya lifted her face and gawked at the abomination...

It stopped...

It cried...

Its HP became visible, and one could see hope out of it!

Players cheered from afar, their weapons aiming at the abomination once again! They were more confident than ever, and the hero\'s name rang out throughout the battlefield!

"Ferocious Bear! Ferocious Bear! Ferocious Bear!"

"Support our hero!"

Satisfaction and relief washed over the hero\'s face.

Her face lit up happily, and she grinned, "I did it!"

That was when the Lion Ghost\'s body entered the Lion King\'s face.

That man spread Reylin\'s system from the inside.

The Crimson Dragon\'s influence became the link breaker as its powers smeared the abomination\'s core. In less than a minute, the abomination\'s parts separated from themselves...

The tail became Snake King... The Medusa\'s Husband.

The Wings turned into a devilish existence the Faynom World didn\'t hear off... At least humanity wasn\'t aware of it!

Its goat legs turned into bull... That bull dropped heavily onto the ground, then its legs immediately kicked off the ground...

Yes... Those existences were still influenced by the abomination\'s ambition!

Naturally, The Lion King was the same!

It had the worst, though, as it bore the brunt of the hero\'s slash!

Nonetheless, all those existences went toward Reylin!

Reylin\'s eyes rose, "I am still exhausted. Someone save me!"

His hands rose as if looking out for help... He had various guild members around him, but no one deemed themselves strong enough to become a temporary wall for Reylin!

Those existences all madly rushed at Reylin, and it seemed like nothing would save him...
