After Maxing out all Classes

Chapter 888: Something Doesn’t Seem Right

Seeing Robb stomping down, the Dark Devourer was completely indifferent. In its long life, it had dealt with adventurers many times before, including some agile ones who would jump onto its massive body, stomping, slashing, and chopping at it, but it never seemed to have any effect.

Their attacks were like scratching an itch for the Dark Devourer!

With a light flick, it would shake off the pests from its body, then follow up with a couple of strikes, and the opponent would be dead beyond death.

This time shouldnt be any different.

However, just as the Dark Devourer was thinking this, it felt an immense force coming from above, a truly overwhelming force that surged into its consciousness. In an instant, its mind was scattered, and its thoughts ceased.

The tremendous force traveled from head to toe, vibrating downward, coursing through its nerves and veins, leaving instant numbness in its wake.

The Dark Devourer felt overwhelmed, as if a mountain-sized burden had been placed upon it.

With a thud, it collapsed to the ground, unable to move.

Robb looked down at his feet and said, Huh? This big monster is quite resilient. I stomped on it, but its still alive. What kind of creature is this? Ive never seen anything like it.

He then added a bit more force and stomped again

Boom!

The Dark Devourer turned into a pile of minced meat, scattered all over the ground, without even a chance to give any last words or boast.

Robb landed on the ground, preparing to use a dispel spell, but before he could, the bone cages that had trapped Chris and the others automatically dissolved. The bones turned into magical particles, disappearing without a trace.

Oh? It seems the big monster I just stomped to death set up this bone cage, Robb chuckled and waved at everyone. Did you find the Demon King? Where is it?

Chris and the others:

Robb asked, puzzled, Why is no one saying anything?

Chris pointed at the scattered remains near Robbs feet and said, Thats the Demon King.

What? Robb exclaimed, This weak Demon King?

Chris:

Among their group of five, there was a moment of hesitation on the fire magicians face as to whether or not to say it out loud. After a while, the Fire Magician awkwardly tugged at the sleeve of Chris and whispered, I think I might know who he is.

Chris asked, Who?

The Fire Magician whispered, He seems to be the Godfather from Westwind City. He told me hes Godfather last night, but I didnt believe him. But now.

Chris:

The nearby Priest, Hunter, and Assassin suddenly realized, yes, who else could it be besides the hero from Westwind City who can stand against a black dragon?

Chris grabbed the Fire Magicians shoulder and shook her vigorously. He told you clearly, why didnt you believe him?

The Fire Magician replied, If I told you this two days ago, would you have believed me?

Chris:

So, it was an awkward situation.

While some were still in shock and confusion, Xuelu felt aggrieved. My dear, youre being unreasonable.

Robb asked, How am I being unreasonable?

Xuelu cried, You said you wouldnt interfere, that youd let me deal with the Demon King. Now youve stomped it to death, and my adventure has ended like this. How can I make it into the epic tales now?

Well, thats a rather specific concern, Robb said. Upon reflection, I should have denounced it before attacking. Otherwise, its death wouldnt have been clear, which wouldnt feel right. Fine, Ill revive it for you to kill. Is that acceptable?

That works, that works! Xuelu clapped her hands. This is perfect.

Robb cast a resurrection spell on the Dark Devourers remains.

The body parts assembled, and the Dark Devourer sat up with a bewildered expression. Whats going on? Who am I? Where am I? What was I doing?

Robb turned to it and said, Youre the Demon King, right?

The Dark Devourer was a bit hazy about recent events because Robbs earlier stomp on its head had left it mentally scrambled. It only remembered Robbs foot stomping on its head, but now it was alive and unharmed, which indicated that Robbs stomp had been utterly useless.

The Dark Devourer arrogantly said, Yes, I am the Demon King. Werent you just arrogantly jumping on my head a moment ago? Youll pay for your insolence.

Chris muttered from behind, I feel like Ive heard this before.

Xuelu chimed in, Me too.

Me too, it sounds familiar

Robb said sarcastically, Since youre the Demon King, then its fine. I came here specifically to beat you up. You dared to collude with the Church of Light and the Kingdom of Norma to pick a fight with me. Lets not waste time with chit-chat. Im going to pummel you. Stand firm, brace yourself, and prepare to take a beating.

The Dark Devourer burst into laughter. Where did this trashy adventurer come from? Speaking so arrogantly. Wait a minute, what did you say? I colluded with the Church of Light and the Kingdom of Norma to pick a fight with you? You could it be

Boom!

Robbs fist struck the Dark Devourers chest.

The Dark Devourer collapsed with a thud, dead.

Xuelu protested, Hey, why did you kill it again? I wanted to be the great adventurer who killed the Demon King, and now my adventure is ruined. How will I be remembered in the epic tales?

Robb said, Oh, right, evidence. We still need evidence. Lets try reviving it again.

The Dark Devourer said, Human, you will pay for your arrogance Wait, something doesnt seem right.
