Chapter 38: Special Test

This creature was completely different from the ones that they were encountering. Just as Henry and Olivia were wondering what kind of monster they were facing this time, another prompt appeared in front of the two of them.

[Congratulations. It has been noted that you are special. And for that reason, since the monster tide is used to test you, and it has been realized that the monster tied is useless to you, the apocalypse has decided on a creature that will be able to give you a real test.]

[The monster in front of you is a real apocalyptic creature. This is a creature that has been born in the apocalypse, and thus possesses greater strength than the wild animals that you are currently facing.]

[The monster has already reached the limit of Rank O. Even though it is true that this is dangerous, it is also a fortuitous encounter as long as you manage to defeat the apocalyptic creature in front of you.]

[As long as you manage to kill the apocalyptic creature in front of you within 30 minutes, the monster tide will end. But, in case you fail do that, the third wave will descend, without giving you enough time to rest.]

The moment that the prompt disappeared, both Henry and Olivia were shocked. They couldn\'t believe that the monster that was standing in front of them was actually a real apocalyptic creature.

Previously, Henry had thought that perhaps, the apocalyptic creatures that they were supposed to face in the future were the ones that were going to evolve just like how they themselves were doing.

But it seemed that he was wrong. The group of monsters that they were facing this time, was just a test for them, before they finally met with the real apocalypse.

But still, there was something else that Henry had realized. That was the fact that, the creature that had appeared in front of them was actually at the limit of Rank O. That implied that the monster in front of them had already reached level 9.

He himself had already managed to reach level 7 not long ago. That implied that currently, he was two levels behind the creature in front of him. As for managing to kill it, that was something that he wasn\'t sure about.

At the same time, he had realized that only the two of them had the same reaction. That implied that, it was only the two of them that had received the system prompt.

And since Olivia had also received the prompt, that implied that she was also special. And for that reason, Henry was determined to be able to get her for his team. But of course, he wasn\'t going to beg.

At this time, Olivia turned around and looked at Henry. At this moment, she finally understood why she was getting a special feeling from Henry. Just like herself, he was considered special in the apocalypse.

Then, looking at the creature that was still standing in front of them, battle intent immediately ignited in her eyes. Even though she knew that this was going to be dangerous, still, she wanted to fight.

She knew that the earlier the two of them managed to kill this creature, the better the rewards that they were going to receive, and they were going to manage to end the monster tide earlier.

If they were not given time to manage to get the drops, as well as the equipment that would have dropped during this wave, then it was going to be difficult task for them to handle the next wave.

That was the reason as to why she was completely determined to deal with the creature in front of her. Even though she did not know about the combat capabilities of the creature in front of her, she didn\'t doubt her own capabilities.

Simultaneously, as if the two of them had come to an agreement, they immediately charged forward. None of them wanted another wave to descend on them. And for that reason, they had the same goal in mind.

Just as they were approaching the creature in front of them, it released a low roar. And the next moment, the monsters that had been standing on the side immediately charged forward to attack the two of them.

From the looks of it, Henry realized that this creature wanted to waste as much time as possible. As long as 30 minutes went by, they were the ones that were going to fall at a disadvantage. After all, if they were going to fight with a large group of level 9 creatures, then, they would have to spend a lot of energy to deal with them.

This time, Henry didn\'t hesitate at all. Instead, he immediately summoned the fireball. A ball made of flames immediately appeared in his hand, before he launched it towards the group of monsters.

In the next moment, Henry couldn\'t help but get flabbergasted when he suddenly felt a cold chill rushing past him. A ball made of ice was also launched towards the monsters.

But what happened next was something that made the duo look at each other in dismay. Since the group that they were attacking were closely packed, it was obvious that the two attacks were bound to collide.

And for that reason, the moment that the two attacks came into contact with each other, they actually began fighting against each other for supremacy.

Water and fire, even though the other party was ice, it was still an element of water. And for that reason, water and fire began fighting against each other.

And as they went forward, the energy that was present within the two attacks immediately began plummeting. And the next moment, the two attacks disappeared even before they reached the monsters.

All of this happened at a fast speed, just a matter of a few seconds. But, it was enough to make both Henry and Olivia look at each other in astonishment.

The two of them believed that the element that they possessed was stronger than what other mages possessed. But, the moment that they faced each other, the two attacks were actually in the same level?!

Henry was of course the person who had been greatly surprised. After all, currently, he possessed a unique profession. And for that reason, he had always known that his fire element was stronger than any fire mage.

But now, in the face of Olivia\'s ice ball, his attack had actually been neutralized. Even though it was true that the two attacks had neutralized each other, that didn\'t change the fact that his attack didn\'t reign supreme.

It was also at this moment that Henry finally realized why Olivia was considered that special.

Before the two of them could even continue thinking, the group of monsters had finally arrived in front of them. And, they were not going to give them a chance, but try to use this moment that the two of them seemed distracted, to kill them off.

Henry and Olivia acted. Even though they were surprised by what happened, they didn\'t lose their minds. They still knew that they were currently in a battle, and they were supposed to be attentive at all time.

Using their swords, they attacked. The monsters that were charging towards them couldn\'t even stand a single strike from them. And for that reason, with just a few attacks, they had managed to completely finish off the remaining level 6 apocalyptic creatures in the wave.

With serious expressions on their faces, they turned their attention towards the two-headed creature. It was also during this moment that Henry finally got a good view of the creature in front of him.

He noticed that the eyes present in the two heads were actually calm as they looked at them. In fact, Henry could notice that there was actually a hint of disdain in the eyes of the creature in front of them.

This made him furrow his brows. Even though it was true that level one and above wild animals that they had been facing all this while had regained their sentience, they actually didn\'t have intelligence of a level the same as the creature in front of them.

Of course, since Henry was able to detect the disdain from the creature in front of them, Olivia was able to do the same.

Even though it was true that the two of them were calm, they hated being looked down upon. And for that reason, they immediately attacked. And even though they were angry, they had not lost their thought. So, they attacked warily, knowing that the monster in front of them was actually stronger than they were.

Since they had already known that they could not use their elements to attack at the same time, this time, they decided to use their sword skills. Of course, since she knew that the sword that she possessed was inferior, Olivia had already covered it in an ice.

This would not only increase its sharpness and the damage that it dealt, but it also increased it\'s durability.

Just as the two of them were about to land their attacks on the creature, the creature finally made a move. It opened the most of both heads, before a light finally appeared in them.

The next moment, both Henry and Olivia were forced to stop their attacks, and defend.
