CHAPTER 75: 75 YOU DARE TO HURT HIM?! (4/4, ADDITIONAL UPDATE)

"Who did it?"

"I ask you, who did it!!?"

Beep beep beep...

The sapphire on the Ring of Suffering turned crimson and emitted an ear-piercing noise—this indicated that the wearer’s mental state had reached a critical edge.

Herbert looked at Valentina, whose vertical pupils were spewing flames of anger, almost consumed by rage. He raised his hand and stammered:

"Uh, you don’t have to be upset, it’s just a flesh wound, most of it’s my own blood..."

Damn it.

Looks like things got out of hand.

He thought about leaving for a moment to let Valentina calm down, but she gripped his collar tightly, giving him no chance to escape.

"...Lead the way."

Valentina’s voice was hoarse, seething with anger, mixed with a hint of regret that Herbert could not understand.

"Valentina, calm down first, I..."

Thud!

Valentina stomped her foot forcefully, causing the entire space to shake violently, interrupting Herbert’s next words.

"I want you to..."

The furious Giant Dragon glared at him, almost wailing in grief:

"Lead the way!!!"

.

.

In the Molten Hell, a lava giant stood in the Magma Pool, its upper body as enormous as a mountain, composed of scorching lava and rocks, emanating a suffocating high temperature.

The lava giant was bewilderedly staring at its palm, uncertain where that tiny creature had disappeared to just now.

In the next moment, it suddenly looked up at the sky, where a portal flickered briefly.

The giant beast had descended.

A terrifying Giant Dragon, over a hundred meters long, plummeted from the sky!

The Giant Dragon flapped its massive and robust wings, stirring a scorching airflow, and its scales gleamed with a metallic sheen in the reflection of the lava, like flowing flames.

The dragon’s eyes were like two burning fires, fixed tightly on the opposing lava giant.

A frenzied roar echoed throughout the space.

"How dare you harm him!!?"

No hesitation, no further exchange, the battle broke out suddenly.

The lava giant unhesitatingly hurled the Molten Rock Ball in its hand directly at the dragon.

Whoosh—

The dragon did not slow down, opening its maw to unleash a torrent of flames, which engulfed the molten rock ball like a surging wave.

Sizzle!

The cannonball-like giant ball melted at an astonishing speed under the flames, losing three-quarters of its size in the blink of an eye, barely scratching the dragon’s head.

The lava giant raised its massive arm, the magma on its arm churning under the intense heat, trying to shield itself from the dragon’s flames with its arm.

Fire and magma collided, producing deafening roars, with sparks flying toward the sky.

"Roar!!!"

The lava giant roared in anger, charging toward the dragon, each step leaving deep cracks in the ground.

As it neared the dragon, it swung its gigantic fist, carrying a whistling wind, aiming for the draconic beast.

In the next instant, the two terrifying behemoths crashed into each other directly.

Boom!

Upon impact, the dragon twisted its body gracefully, drawing a beautiful arc in the air, easily avoiding the opponent’s lethal blow.

Then, circling in the air once more, the dragon swooped down again, its sharp claws glinting in the sunlight.

This time, its claws aimed accurately at the lava giant’s head!

The lava giant attempted to block with its other arm, but the dragon’s strength was overwhelming, its claws deeply piercing the giant’s head, spewing out boiling lava.

The lava giant shook its head in pain, its footsteps staggering, as the dragon bit into its head, swallowing it whole!

Crunch!

But the next moment, the head made of molten rock rapidly grew anew.

It was merely a creation brought together, not its vital point.

"Roar!!!"

"Roar!!!"

The lava giant and the frenzied giant dragon danced and roared in the Magma Pool.

Hidden in the Bronze Fortress, the demon watched everything secretly. Initially sulking, she couldn’t help but applaud and cheer at this moment.

"Yes, yes!"

"Do it like that!"

"Smash its head hard!"

Boom!

Taking advantage of the lava giant’s recovery, the dragon pursued, flying behind the lava giant and spewing a strong flame again, directly impacting its back, turning its body scorching red.

And as its form was half dissolved, the dragon’s sharp claws plunged into the giant’s chest, its wings flapped fiercely, dragging it bit by bit out of the Magma Pool!

Boom—

Amidst splattering scorching lava, the lava giant was indeed pulled out like a radish by the dragon.

It struggled in mid-air, trying to counterattack, but its head was shattered repeatedly by the dragon’s claws.

Finally, after flying several hundred meters high, the dragon altered its flight direction.

No longer ascending, it dove downward, bringing the giant along!!!

Whoosh—

Without even slowing down, it crashed toward the Magma Pool with the giant, smashing it hard on top!!!

Boom!!!

With an earth-shattering bang, the lava giant could no longer sustain, its massive body unable to coalesce.

The dragon soared out of the Magma Pool, its wings beating, ascending to the heavens, and unleashing a roar of triumph.

"Roar!!!"

Under the reflection of the Magma Pool, its figure appeared incredibly mighty, its dark red scales shining with dazzling brilliance.

Witnessing this scene, the demon who was initially cheering fell silent.

"..."

For Kreti suddenly realized that the dragon’s strength seemed absurdly strong.

The demon was indeed insane, but its formidable power was undeniable, and even if Kreti acted personally, she couldn’t defeat that demon.

Yet now, that demon was getting pummeled by the dragon!!?

Moreover... the dragon seemed to be avenging for Herbert?

"Valentina."

The disheveled Herbert stood on the Bronze Fortress, softly calling out to the dragon flying overhead:

"Have you had enough? If you’ve vented enough, let’s go back."

A massive portal appeared in the air, revealing the ever-changing scenes of the Endless Maze behind it.

The dragon squinted its eyes, looking down at the weak human trying to command her.

Do you still not see the situation after witnessing the great Valentina’s majesty!

However, Herbert could only shake his head helplessly, sighing softly, "Be good, listen."

"You go back first, and I’ll come and accompany you later."

Kreti: No, what are you saying?

Such a proud and powerful being, how could it possibly...?

"Hmph!!!"

As it turned out, after hearing this, the dragon rolled its eyes, letting out a thunderous snort, and actually, without looking back, dived into the portal.

Click.

When the dragon completely vanished into the portal, Herbert lowered his hand, shaking his head with a wry smile, muttering to himself:

"This creature is loyal like a dog, but its temper is truly like a cat, easily getting triggered... What a cat-dog of a dragon."

Kreti: ???

He paid no heed to the demon’s speechless gaze behind him but instead focused on the center of the hollowed-out Magma Pool.

There, where the lava giant’s heart had been, emerged a massive crystal core.

And within that slowly fracturing crystal core was a small unconscious figure.

"We finally meet again."

Herbert lowered his gaze, softly muttering:

"Miss Demon..."
