Chapter 16 Breaking the Illusion!
Alden furrowed his brows.
It was clear this was an illusion.
Of course, if one’s mind wasn’t strong enough, they might fall into this dream world.
One must stay true to themselves and break the illusion.
Actually, there was a very simple method.
That was to use imagination!
Visualize this graceful, long–legged beauty before him as the same 10–foot–tall, hairy, hideous Yellow–Furred Weasel.
That way, everything before him made perfect sense.

Again, Alden looked at the elegant beauty, but he couldn’t help but think of the Yellow–Furred Weasel posing and making fun of
him.
Ugh.
Alden almost vomited. Just the thought of it made his stomach churn. It was so disgusting.
The beauty froze for a moment upon seeing his reaction.
“Do you like men?”
Then, the illusion changed.
A handsome young man leaned in front of Alden, playing basketball, moving skillfully, with fluid actions, his movements rising and falling.
Ugh.
Alden felt the Yellow–Furred Weasel was mocking him.
Whoosh!
An arrow flew through the air, hitting its mark.
-1028
A huge damage number appeared, and the illusion was shattered.
However, Alden was surprised to see that he had already broken the illusion before him.
He saw Shadowrend slide towards the Yellow–Furred Weasel’s legs, then stab his knife forward.
“Argh”
The Yellow–Furred Weasel’s legs snapped together as it screamed in pain.

It was a relatively minor attack but one with considerable humiliation.

Alden realized that Shadowrend was pulling the monster’s aggro, trying to help him stall out the Yellow–Furred Weasel’s Ultimate Body mode.
As expected, after the yell, the Yellow–Furred Weasel spun around and chased after Shadowrend.
Whoosh!
As the creature pursued Shadowrend, Alden ramped up his attack speed, unleashing arrows without hesitation.
Each arrow hit the back of the creature’s head, dealing huge critical damage.
“Roar!”
The Yellow–Furred Weasel roared in anger.
It knew it had been played.
Seeing its remaining Ultimate Body mode time running low, it immediately activated its Rage Mode skill.
Its speed skyrocketed.
Shadowrend’s reaction was fast, but the Yellow–Furred Weasel raised its hand and released Soul Absorption, instantly killing Shadowrend.
Alden sighed.
This was Shadowrend’s third death today.
Twice by his own hand, and now once trying to save him.
After killing Shadowrend, the Yellow–Furred Weasel turned its gaze to Alden and raised its hand to cast Soul Control.
Alden felt his soul freeze, and a chilling aura began to invade his being.
In the next moment, he felt his control over his body gradually slipping away.
At this critical moment, Alden quickly switched his equipment.
He replaced his Thunderstorm Bow with a shield.
If he couldn’t withstand the next attack, he’d be instantaneously killed.
He also feared that the Yellow–Furred Weasel might use Soul Control to force him to harm himself, and the shield seemed to be the best choice.
Once it controlled Alden, the Yellow–Furred Weasel dashed towards him.
It raised its hand and struck hard against Alden’s helmet.
Critical hit.

Huge damage appeared, followed by a storm of attacks on Alden.
Swish!
The Yellow–Furred Weasel’s claw tore through Alden’s throat, and another massive number appeared.

Bleeding.

This attack caused bleeding damage.
Now desperately fighting to break free, Alden endured a loss of 20,000 HP before escaping Soul Control.
After escaping Soul Control, Alden kicked the Yellow–Furred Weasel’s knee, using the momentum to perform a backflip, narrowly avoiding its next attack.
Twisted Arrow Technique!
Whoosh!
At this moment, the Yellow–Furred Weasel’s Rage Mode ended. Alden released a powerful Twisted Arrow Technique aimed at its
throat.
However, the Yellow–Furred Weasel’s speed had increased significantly in its Rage Mode. It managed to grab Alden’s arrow with its palm.
Alden was surprised but didn’t falter.
Arrows flew one after another.
Without the protection of Ultimate Body mode, the Yellow–Furred Weasel was much easier to deal with.
Alden continued shooting with his Twisted Arrow Technique; at first, the Yellow–Furred Weasel could block one or two arrows.
But as Alden’s attack angles became more and more precise, the creature made a small mistake and was forced back by the massive impact of the arrows.
“Now’s my chance.”
A cold glint flashed in Alden’s eyes as he fired another arrow, hitting the creature’s left leg. The Yellow–Furred Weasel staggered, losing its balance and falling forward.
In the next moment, Alden’s second arrow hit the creature’s forehead. The combined force of the arrows sent the creature briefly floating in the air.
“This is the effect I wanted.”
Alden’s eyes gleamed coldly. Now that the creature was floating, dealing with it would be much easier.

Without Rage Mode, the Yellow Furred Weasel couldn’t land.
Not far off, a player was walking toward them.

He was streaming live, smiling as he said, “Guys, you should all be farming in the Twisted Forest by now, but did you know there’s a Minstrel over here?
“I bet The Minstrel has some amazing quest, and if we complete it, maybe I can become as powerful as Frost King!”
As he said this, River City Sentinel walked closer to Alden.
However, when he arrived, he froze.
“Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap.”
His viewers were equally puzzled since the live stream camera was facing him.
‘What’s the streamer seeing? Is there a player fighting a boss live?‘
‘Hah, our club’s boss said he wants to move his business into the game, but it seems you need your own shop or territory for that kind of thing, or else you’ll be punished.‘
‘Streamer, show us, is it Human–Beast? Who’s the savage?‘
River City Sentinels wallowed a few times before finally pointing the live stream camera at Alden.
Then, the live stream room fell into a brief silence.
A moment later.
“Woah, woah, woah.‘
Instantly, the live stream chat exploded with comments.
‘Holy crap, what am I seeing? Is that a boss? It’s stuck in mid–air by that archer!‘
‘My mom asked why I was so hooked on the live stream, and after seeing it, she couldn’t help but get just as into it.
The chat room was immediately flooded with excitement. They had all seen Alden keeping the Yellow–Furred Weasel in the air with his Twisted Arrow Technique.
The screen suddenly went black just as River City Sentinel was getting into his livestream. He died on the spot!
And behind him appeared a shadowy assassin!
