Chapter 412 Fire (11)
If strength wasn\'t the answer, Billy decided to compensate with speed and the help of Magic. The ice magic on the tip of his spears was being used pretty fast due to the numerous attacks and because of the heat emanated by the monster. Still, Billy used his vast reserves of mana to make sure that his weapons would be in tip-top shape. Thanks to that, they didn\'t suffer any damage, and they were piercing the monster quite deeply, and the creature was also trembling. Even if it was a golem that couldn\'t feel pain, the core was a different matter.
Suddenly, the back of the monster was enveloped in some powerful flames that almost burned Billy to a crisp, but he stopped that by spinning one of his spears and using it as a shield. It seemed that the Enchantment also could work defensively… while Billy defended with one spear, he attacked with the other. Upon realizing that only that much wouldn\'t stop Billy, the monster began to fire upward another wave of lava spheres, and while the number wasn\'t large, the creature made sure that it would all fall over Billy.
"This complicates things a bit…" Billy furrowed his eyebrows.
Even if he could block the lava, some still would spill on him, and the temperature of the monster was rising even more. Before Billy could find an answer, the monster fell forward, and Billy felt an impact crossing over the body of the beast. It seemed that his friends attacked, and without its legs to sustain itself, the fire titan fell. Thanks to that, Billy dodged the rain of lava… Still, eventually, Billy\'s stabs stopped causing any damage to the monster\'s body.
"Son of a bitch… Stop being so annoying!" Billy said.
The monster began to emit that black smoke, and Billy felt his eyes rolling… That was something that not even poison Resistance or detoxify could fight back, so he truly was running out of time. Billy\'s legs and arms were also starting to burn and emit a dangerous smell as well, so Billy decided that it was time to make a bet; finally, he would make his bet.
After combining the short spears, Billy jumped from the back of the monster and enhanced the whole weapon with mana. At the same time, he covered the whole thick with a powerful layer of ice magic. Almost all his mana was used to do that, and Thanks to it, the tip of the spear got so cold that it completely canceled the heat of the monster nearby Billy.
When he began to fall, Billy used his remaining mana on Fierce Aura, but only his arm was covered by it. Thanks to that, he truly began to feel that he had been toasted alive. He didn\'t give up, though.

The skill Gungnir has leveled up.
The skill Gungnir has leveled up.
…
It sure was a strong-sounding name for a new skill, but what surprised Billy was the fact that it was leveling up even before being used. Regardless, when he got close enough and when the beast was trying to get up, Billy struck.
The impact caused a massive explosion, but despite that, Billy wasn\'t sent flying in the opposite direction… Probably because the energy dissipated across the body of the monster mostly. The fire titan\'s body began to fall apart, and the pieces flew to many distances. Despite that, Billy still saw the moment that his attack exposed the core of the monster\'s body. The energy of his attack was completely used, but the tip of the spear still hit the core at the last moment and made it crack. When that happened, an even bigger explosion took place, and this time, Billy was thrown away to the distance.

Those were the last things Billy saw before he lost consciousness…

In the end, Billy woke up when he started to feel pretty cold. He opened his eyes and then saw himself sleeping inside a tent. He got up, only to feel his entire body screaming in pain. He recalled the fight with the fire titan, and he realized that he had broken more than a few bones. Still, he won, and he couldn\'t have asked for more. In any case, getting wounded that much, even though the monster was of that level, wasn\'t something he could accept considering that his enemy was just a monster. Billy sighed as soon as he woke up because he needed more training, he was already even thinking about what he should do to make things more efficient when it comes to that.
"Oh? You are finally awake," Kate suddenly appeared and said. "Hey, guys, Billy woke up."
She should have at least asked if he wanted visitors… Billy didn\'t have only broken bones. He also had some nasty scars across his body. Regardless, his friends appeared as expected, but someone else also showed up, that was Aura. It seemed that she had come herself to check the battle\'s outcome. It seems that everyone was pretty much fine, that was a relief since he didn\'t have time check things with them while he was fighting. He made the monster focus his attacks on him, but it was impossible to say when or how a stray shot might wound one of them seriously. They also weren\'t within the range of his armor as well, so Billy wouldn\'t have the chance to help in case something happened.
"Thank you for your hard work, how are you feeling?" Aura asked. "It is the first time I see someone sleeping for two days straight after such a battle… it is also the first time I see someone recover so fast from such wounds."
"I still feel like crap, still, two days already passed, huh," Billy said. "What happened after I passed out?" Billy asked.
