Chapter 366: Snake Highway (1)
Kadam Kazans.
Half-orc.
Imperial Seven Seats.
His title.
Crushing Hands.
Crushes anything they touch.
His grip strength is not inferior to the jaw strength of large monsters.
If he wants, he can climb city walls with bare hands.
He can bend, twist, and even break spears made of solid iron.
However, Kadam always covers those most terrifying hands with gloves.
Because those hands that seemed to have inherited particularly strong orc bloodline were a complex for Kadam.
Of course, no one openly mocked them as orc hands, but it was unavoidable.
But in reality, Kadam's hands couldn't be called orc hands.
Only the skin color was the same.
Bigger and stronger than orc hands.
No orc could perform such feats with just hand strength like Kadam.
For example.
Grabbing the mouth of a monster approaching disaster level with both hands.
"Uwaaaaah-!"
Wadeudeuk!
Ripping it apart.
"Kueohung!"
Ambejeu's mouth with torn jaw joints dangling.
But it wasn't a fatal wound.
Ambejeu was still alive, and his mane that should be involuntary organs surged as if alive.
Kakakakak!
Wounds appeared all over Kadam's body.
His t-shirt was torn and blood streamed.
However, orcs tend to go berserk when seeing their own blood, and Kadam was no different.
"I'll beat you until just before death!"
He firmly grabbed the mane flying at him with both hands.
Though wounds formed on his palms, he didn't even care.
And he pulls Ambejeu, who had grown far larger than himself, with his whole body.
"This is allowed!"
Ambejeu's body lifted into the sky.
And on the other side, slammed into the ground.
Kwaaang!
An Imperial Seven Seat can handle ordinary named monsters alone.
Though uncertain if he could overwhelm Ambejeu who approached disaster level by devouring countless monsters.
"Directooor!"

Ambejeu could no longer be called a lion.
How so?
His enlarged body had stretched out overall.
His tail had thickened to become similar to a lizard's form.
All the white fur had fallen out revealing only pale skin, and disgusting bright red blood vessels bulged out on that skin.
The pitch black mane extended from head to mid-body and was close to being a weapon itself.
Not only his appearance had changed.
In a way that should be impossible, Ambejeu twisted shuruluk and righted his flipped body.
"Kuheoeong!"
He pushed against Kadam with a lion-like roar.
The weight difference was an issue that couldn't be overcome even for a superhuman.
Kadam was inevitably pushed back.
"Kuk."
Normally he would have somehow endured by firmly planting his feet in the ground.
But the problem was the muddy ground softened by the storm.
His feet slipped jureuruk, and finally Ambejeu crushed Kadam underneath.
"I'll eat you up!"
Ambejeu wouldn't have mysterious techniques or combat methods.
He just crushed wildly with his newly gained horrific body.
Moreover, he constantly tried to bite off Kadam's head with his somehow regenerated mouth.
But Kadam wasn't one to submit easily either.
"Uu, aaaah!"
Amazingly, he attempted a barrage while pinned to the ground.
He pummeled the sides, abdomen, and back with his fists.
That force was no ordinary thing.
Pupupupuk!
Though his mind seemed dyed bright red with rage.
Kadam with his vast combat experience instinctively calculated.
Analysis of Ambejeu's abilities and weaknesses.
First, the clearly visible abilities.
First was transformation.
His body moves flexibly and freely as if made of rubber.
Moreover, he controls his mane to constrict and cut.
Second was regeneration.
The ability to regenerate his body at a visible speed.
A newly gained ability.
Then, there's a high possibility he really can't evolve through death anymore.
If he dies now, that would be the end.
The two abilities were the kind that become harder to deal with when possessed together.
Especially with the mane, it seems to grow back instantly even if pulled out or cut.
Had he faced such a monster before...
Many times.
Kadam was someone who had been through battlefields after all.
Then what should he do?
The strategy hadn't changed.
Just beat him until near death.
Regeneration is neither infinite nor omnipotent.
It operates by consuming something, whether mana, monster energy, or willpower.
Then just beat him until he can no longer regenerate his body.
Kadam did so.
Puk- pueok- puk!
He ignored injuries to a certain extent and kept beating.
Tearing off limbs, cutting the tail, and ripping out mane.
It was a smooth dismantling operation.
Fast yet steady enough for Ambejeu to feel the threat of death.
But, was he really a monster approaching disaster level?
An anomaly soon occurred.
It was when Kadam tried to dodge Ambejeu's tail rushing at him.
Swaying-
For a moment his vision blurred and his body tilted.
Because of that, he had no choice but to get hit by the tail and tumble kudangtang.
He quickly got back up.
'Did I lose too much blood?'
Kadam has no regeneration ability.
Damage from blood loss steadily accumulates.
But the amount of blood lost shouldn't be that much yet.
Kadam met Ambejeu's eyes.
Ambejeu was smiling.
Then something occurred to him at almost instinctual speed.
"...Poison!"
"Kuhuhoo. Took you long enough."
Ambejeu's third ability, poison.
He missed it because lion and poison don't easily connect.
But Kadam didn't panic.
His poison resistance is close to the highest level.
Rather, it was a chance to make Ambejeu lower his guard.
If he pretends to stagger like this, somehow break his neck...
That's when.
"Director, Directooor!"
"This crazy."
Even Kadam cursed in surprise.
What is that thundering idiot doing following here.
"Stop right now!"
Abratal Geduin, who had been dispatched one day by imperial order and constantly bothered Kadam.
"You crazy human, get lost!"
"Hooh."
Ambejeu stepped back slightly.
Perhaps thinking the situation would turn favorable for him.
"I won't kill him, just beat him until near death."
"That must not happen!"
"You really..."
Kadam considered if he could just hit Abratal Geduin once.
Then he could make him unable to speak for life.
"You must not touch Ambejeu."
"His Majesty the Emperor did not give me such orders!"
Don't clean up the black and white monsters and let them fight among themselves.
That was the order.
