An Extra’s POV

'What more does he have planned?'

Claudius swallowed his saliva as he racked his brain.

'He's a very powerful Necromancer, so he shouldn't have a lot of combat ability in any other field.'

Yet…

"Don't look so concerned. I won't step in yet, so don't worry."

'If he won't step in, then who will?' Claudius found himself following the line of sight of the enemy and found him staring at the fallen Corpse.

'Why is he looking at it like that? Don't tell me—!"

~SLOOOP!~

Like gooey ooze, the bulky Compound Corpse suddenly divided itself into two separate forms; both of them having two hands and two legs, with two heads each.

They formed away from the flaming restraints, each standing at about two meters tall.

'N-no way…'

Claudius couldn't believe that there was even more to the Compound Corpse than he expected.

"I never told you that the things I mentioned were all the qualities of the Compound Corpse."

'There's more?! Just… just how much more?!' Claudius found himself panicking at this point.

The mere existence of the Compound Corpse already placed the enemy at about A-Tier, but if there was more, then Claudius couldn't help but wonder what kind of person they were dealing with.

Could they even win?!

"A Compound Corpse can divide itself as many times as the lives it has left. Of course, its combat ability will be reduced, but it's pretty useful in tricky situations like this."

Claudius tried his best to calm himself, and after a few seconds, he was successful.

'Think! Think, Claudius! If this is yet another quality of this creature, that essentially makes it overpowered.'

It could easily turn into numerous forms and easily handle his Knights a lot better during the first round—even in the second round.

It could have also gone after multiple targets at once.

'Yet it didn't! There has to be a reason!'

Claudius' eyes widened the moment his mind responded to the inquiry.
