Chapter 364 A King Who Fights His Own Battles [Part 2]

“Your little tricks don\'t hurt me in the slightest, Mortal.”

Ethan smirked when he heard the Bronze Giant’s words. He didn’t even care whether the Bronze Giant’s words were true or not. Because right now, all of that didn’t matter.

“I don’t care if my little tricks don\'t hurt you,” Ethan stated.

“Then why struggle?” the Bronze Giant asked. “In the end, it’s all futile.”

“You’re the perfect training dummy, that’s why. So what if my attacks don’t hurt you? All you need to do is accept them until I’m satisfied!”

“…”

The Bronze Giant didn’t expect that the mortal holding the trident in his hands would treat him as a mere training dummy.

He, who could slay giants through pure physical strength, had been feared across the land until the time of his death.

Before he breathed his last, he decided to impart his techniques and ability to the next person who would carry his Legacy. He did it by fusing his will to a Bronze Giant made by the best Conjurer of his time.

An indestructible body, which would never break.

A strength that surpassed dragons.

A punch that could kill giants.

The teenager whom his Will had chosen, Henry, was very compatible with his Legacy, so he had given him a chance.

Truth be told, countless people had challenged him in the past, but none of them had been able to defeat him. The reason for this was simple—he was nearly invincible.

A true immortal who hadn’t been defeated for thousands of years, even when the Fomorians and the Tuatha Dé Danann fought against each other in the past.

Although he didn’t participate in their battles, he had been there at one point in time to witness their clash, which had been passed down through myths and legends.

And yet, this same near-invincible being was being treated as a mere training dummy by a young man, who wasn’t even past the age of twenty.

The Bronze Giant had never been insulted since the day it was created, so it roared in anger with the intention of pummeling the arrogant boy to death.

Unfortunately, his attacks were unable to reach Ethan, whose power was much stronger in his Domain, the sea.

Seeing the outraged Giant doing its best to break free from the bindings of the Water Snakes that he had summoned, Ethan couldn’t help but taunt it even more.

“Out of all the flavors to choose from, you chose to be salty.” Ethan laughed, and the sea laughed with him.

After laughing, the young man punched out, creating a giant fist made of water that slammed at the Giant’s chest, sending it flying.

As if to add insult to injury, a passing giant Underwater Crab, standing nearly ten meters tall, smacked the Bronze Giant back toward Ethan with its giant pincer.

The young man punched again, again, and again, venting out all of the frustrations and heartache that he experienced a few days ago.

As if feeling his rage, the Underwater Creatures had converged on his location and also attacked the Bronze Golem.

However, since the participants of the Trial were only Ethan and Henry, their attacks dealt no damage to it whatsoever.

If the Bronze Giant hadn\'t been made up of Magical Bronze and was instead a living, breathing Giant, it might have suffered aneurysm due to high blood pressure after being treated as a punching bag by Ethan, as well as the denizens of the Sea.

Giant Crabs, Giant Octopus, Whales, as well as other creatures both common and alien-like, joined their King in battle.

Henry could only watch this battle from the side in awe, observing and analyzing the Bronze Giant’s fighting style.

Despite being ganged up on by all the creatures of the Sea, the Bronze Giant was still a force to reckon with, sending those who tried to attack it flying with kicks and punches.

Its movements were unhindered by the seawater, and it moved as if it were on land, which fascinated Henry.

The Head Prefect of Dud Manor suddenly felt enlightened, and he floated several meters away from Ethan, integrating the Bronze Giant’s fighting style into his own.

Ethan noticed that his Head Prefect seemed to be in a trance, so he made sure to keep the Bronze Giant at bay until the latter finished his enlightenment.

Nearly half an hour later, Henry finally broke out of his daze, gaining half of the Legacy that he was meant to learn.

The true power of the Legacy of “He Who Slays Giants” was divided into two parts.

The first one was to understand the battle style of the Bronze Giant through real battles.

Most challengers failed the first step because they simply couldn’t last long enough against the overwhelming might of the Giant.

With someone big, scary, and strong trying to smash them to bits, who had the time to pay close attention enough to learn its fighting style?

This was why after every challenger failed their first attempt, they would be allowed to bring a companion with them on the next.

This way, they would be able to observe the Giant’s fighting style while their companion fought against it.

Of course, many had also done this in the past. However, none of them were able to last long enough to succeed.

Ethan had just finished venting out his frustration at this point, and he was feeling much better compared to how he felt two days ago.

He wasn’t aware that Lilith, who had been hiding in his shadow, thanks to the illumination of the Sea God’s Trident, was both horrified and awed to see Ethan’s true power.

‘Unbelievable,’ Lilith thought. ‘Too bad Master can’t fight like this on land. Otherwise, he would be nearly unstoppable. Even so, I have seen something that even Emma is not aware of so that makes me the first one among his Protectors to see his true power, right?’

Lilith was thrilled at this discovery because she could boast to Emma once she returned to the academy and describe how amazing their Master was.
