The Magic Knight's
Chapter 37: Evolution, High Human

"Yukina, I've never fought those three monster bosses. But, don't let you be touched by a creature called Ghost Shade. Even the slightest bit of your body is touched by it, it can take away our soul, magic energy as well as life energy."

I gave information about Ghost Shade to Yukina, in order for our fight to go well.

"Yes, thanks for the information, Bryan. For Magma Pyre, you've seen her abilities just now. However, he can also make his body become as big as a mountain."

"Meanwhile, there are only 2 boss monsters that we have never fought before?" my spoken.

Me and Yukina immediately moved to attack the bosses of the monsters. For a while, I handled the Ghost Shade, and Yukina handled the Magma Pyre.

I greeted him, "Yo, we just met a few days ago, Ghost Shade."

"Shut up, kid! I won't lose like before!"

I immediately enveloped my sword with my fire, and started this fight.

On the other hand, Yukina and Magma Pyre.

Magma Pyre spoke to Yukina, "Little girl, never thought we'd see each other again."

"I told you, didn't I? I don't want to talk to monsters like you!"

"Then, now I'm not just crushing your legs. But, your whole body."

"You talk mostly, monster! Go ahead, and show that you can do it!" Yukina.

And as I am now, Yukina starts her fight.

I slashed at the Ghost Shade many times. However, only a few attacks hit him.

I attacked him continuously, but thought that he was different from before, 'What is this? Why was his movement so much more agile, than the one before?' murmured in my heart.

In the fight Yukina. Magma Pyre changed her body size to human size. With that size, he can move more freely from his original form.

Magma Pyre instantly shot towards Yukina, and dealt a few blows to her. Although Magma Pyre had turned her body into a human-sized one, her movements were still easily avoided by Yukina.

"Is this all you're capable of, magma monster?" Yukina.

Magma Pyre, who had heard these words from Yukina, became upset. He said, "I will surely destroy you!"

...****************...

Brother Veron and brother Verda are now heading to our place.

"Sir Veron, is this really the way?" ask Verda.

"It should be, this is the right path."

They traveled through a very lush forest with trees. Suddenly they both saw something.

"Stop, Verda!"

Brother Verda was surprised and immediately stopped according to Veron's orders.

"What's up, Veron?" brother Verda asked Veron why he told him to stop.

"It looks like we're on the right path. Look over there!" said Veron while pointing in a direction.

Then Verda looked in the direction that Veron had pointed. He saw some monsters that had turned into ice, and monsters that had been burned.

"The injury? It must have been the two of them! The former battle of the two of them with the monsters here. This is the path they have walked. We have to hurry, Veron!" brother Verda told them to move even faster.

"Right, we gotta hurry!"

Then, they moved back to pass through this forest.

...****************...

In my fight against the Ghost Shade, there was still no chance of me, to end this fight quickly.

Here, I thought of some strategy options to beat him. However, he was completely different from before. All the abilitity statistics he had, really greatly increased drastically.

Suddenly a few shots came to me and Yukina. The gunfire hit us, and caused an explosion.

"Ugh..."

"Cheat, why are you the only ones having fun? I want to come too!" the Mechanical Robot.

After the Mechanical Robot said that, suddenly this place was filled with water. With this much water, it could become a lake. No, it could even be an ocean.

"I'm still upset about my previous fight. So, I also want to vent my anger!" the King Lizardman.

"Hahahaha, now all my monster bosses have agreed to face you two at once. So, now how do you guys beat him?" Mr.5 said that, laughing.

We both drowned in the ocean.

'I'm going to freeze this water. But, is Bryan gonna be okay? No, he definitely did not go into ice!' murmured in Yukina's heart.

Yukina immediately made the ocean turn into ice.

My body instantly let out a burning fire, and shattered the ice.

I who came out of the ice block, directly attacked the boss monster with the skills I have.

I used the skill '***Tornado Flame****' to attack all the bosses of the monster. Because they're close together, so I can burn them all at once.

Unfortunately, with my skill it can only give light injuries to the boss monsters.

"Is this all you're capable of?" Ghost Shade feels like it's humbling me.

"Honestly, this fire feels pretty hot too." The King Lizardman, who had resistance to hot temperatures, felt that my fire was quite hot.

'What's this? Before, I could even burn his entire body. However, my attack just now only gave a light wound to all of them. So, this is the full potential power of the boss monsters?' my thinking.

"The Lava Nuclear Cannon!"

Magma Pyre again used one of his ultimate skills. That ability immediately hit towards the two of us.

I immediately enveloped myself with fire, and made a defense. As well as Yukina, she instantly enveloped her body using her ice to protect herself.

That ability hit both of us. We both managed to survive the attack, with only a few minor injuries.

However, suddenly our bodies were confined in the water. It was the King Lizardman's skill that was, 'Water Prison.'

The skill was a water cage. However, the water cage was created due to the high density of mana. In contrast to the skill he had before, which was giving off pure water. Even though I enveloped myself with mana, I would still not be able to breathe inside here, due to the pressure of mana here. And also, my body could be destroyed due to the pressure within it.

I looked up. There was a lava-coated missile shot towards me as well as Yukina. Also, there is a black hole below us that makes our magic absorbed.

The missile hit both of us, causing a great explosion. Yukina and I, who were hit by the attack, were immediately scattered on the ground with heavy injuries.

"Will this fight end now? It seems, my expectations of you guys are too high. So, just up here the child of Gladys's ability?" Mr.5 said that, when he saw that the two of us had fallen helpless.

Again, I felt a sense of despair. Because of my weakness, even I can't protect myself.

"You can finish those kids off now!" Mr.5 gave orders to the boss monsters to eliminate us both.

I want to protect people who are near me. However, with my current strength, I cannot protect anyone. If only....If only I were stronger!

"Yeah...A yukina? How are you Yukina?" I looked towards Yukina.

I looked at Yukina with half her consciousness. In fact, he didn't answer my call.

"Lord, at least save Yukina's life. I'm ready to replace his life with mine!" I said to the Lord, to give salvation to Yukina.

Arrive - arrive....

On the verge of death, I heard a voice. However, I had never heard that voice before.

[Confirmation: Individuals named Bryan and Yukina have qualified to evolve. The evolution of individuals named Bryan and Yukina, into High Human will begin.]

Evolution? High Humans? Mind fucked. However, if it is a force that can protect those closest to me, then I will accept it.
