My SSS-Rank Clone Talent: I Level Up Endlessly! novel Chapter 96

Chapter 96: Vengeful-level Beast!

"How strong will it be?"

Eryke narrowed his eyes. He raised his vigilance to the maximum and materialized his Aura sword once more, gripping it tightly in his hand.

"It will surpass the peak of the world, a step beyond all our powers," the whale mumbled.

"Surpass the peak?"

His expression shifted slightly. _{fɾēewebnσveℓ.com}

These three beasts were already at the Malevolent level. Then... then—

"A Vengeful-level beast."

Eryke had already struggled against the dragon. Even using his full strength, he couldn’t kill it.

Even with Eryke the Third now, it would still be a serious challenge to face that dragon.

And the Leviathan could be even stronger than that?

"When I fought it, it was still weakling, and it didn’t chase me any further... Let’s hurry," Eryke said.

"Alright," the whale replied, then quickly dove toward the twin mountains.

The other two beasts followed close behind.

Soon, they stood before the towering peaks.

"Dragon, attack," Eryke commanded, pointing at the mountain as he turned to the massive creature.

"Who are you to order me around?" the dragon grumbled—but even so, light began to gather in its belly as it opened its jaws.

A blinding flash erupted as heat twisted the air.

It felt like reality itself was tearing apart.

Bang!

The terrifying heat ray shot forward, striking the snakes that blocked the path.

Before it even touched them, the snakes evaporated instantly, melting into sticky liquid as the ray surged downward—unabated, undefeated.

Eryke exhaled a breath of cold air.

Only one thought echoed in his heart:

"Could I take that with my sword?"

He glanced at his Aura sword, deep in thought.

He began to swing it slowly, then faster, again and again, as if it were an extension of his own body.

"Sword Will... unlike Body Will, it’s meant to kill. I should focus on killing with my sword."

Watching Eryke hack through the air in that senseless, trance-like state, the three beasts remained silent.

After unleashing the terrifying rays, the dragon finally stopped and looked around.

"This brat... What is he doing here? We’re about to face the Leviathan," he muttered.

"It’s fine, Ignis. Let him train. He’s likely preparing for the slash that will end the Leviathan," the whale replied.

"Hmph." Ignis scoffed in disdain. "What can he possibly do in such a short time? He’ll just be a distraction, slow us down, maybe even get in the way."

"Ignis," the turtle said slowly, "a wise man once said: Keep your pride to yourself. If you chase meaningless pettiness, you’ll gain nothing in the end."

"Hmph."

Ignis still shook his head. "Let’s just go inside."

Without another word, they all leapt into the hole.

Immediately, they were surrounded by scorching magma. The intense heat made the air thick and steamy, so hot that it seemed to burn and distort the very atmosphere.

Even the mana was affected. It couldn’t be properly used in this place, disrupted by the overwhelming heat.

Among the three beasts, only one was visibly struggling, the whale.

Its once-blue skin was gradually turning gray, and streams of water poured out from its body.
