System vs Rebirth

Circular Sword Strike.

Lightning Force.

Noel's Spiritual Energy started to expand, but due to the toughness of the skin, the part where it touched the skin ended up getting stuck while the rest expanded. On the other hand, Anna's lightning element sparked to the limit, trying to break apart the skin.

The earthworm's skin looked smooth like that of a normal earthworm, but when they struck it with their swords, it felt like they hit a rock. In addition, the rock was so hard that they wondered if this was a rock or a metal.

"Haaa!" Noel shouted while releasing more spiritual Energy, stretching his Circular Sword Strike to the utmost degree. The Sword Strike also hit the Peak Level Demons on the side.

Unfortunately for him, his ability actually left no scratch on the earthworm's skin.

On the other hand, Anna's lightning element had a better chance against it. The lightning's penetrating force was much greater than Noel's ability. A huge area of the strike only left a graze, but the first strike where it was hit the hardest broke apart and left a wound.

"…" Anna furrowed her eyebrows, realizing that a normal strike wouldn't be useful against the earthworm. She had to concentrate all her attacks in one direction.

However, the moment she thought about it, the earthworm had fully emerged from the hole. Its body suddenly wiggled to the side as if it was trying to flap its tail at her.

"!!!" Noel obviously wouldn't allow such a thing. He planned to make the earthworm focus on him. His sword began to emit the Undying Flame as it suddenly burst out.

Ignition Sword.

*Boom!*

The flame exploded and scorched the tough skin. The explosion was even bigger than the last time he used it due to the ability he learned from Old Ru.

Although it was faint, the skin reddened as if the inner part was actually being burned from the outside.

"I see. The earthworm's inner part is extremely delicate, while the outer part is the only thing that is tough. If we can somehow find—" Before he finished his thought, just like what Noel wanted, the earthworm focused on him. Instead of hitting Anna with his tail, Noel was the one getting slapped to the side.

"Kh." Noel still managed to cover his body with Spiritual Energy, but the impact was quite painful. In addition, it blew him away. The front part of the earthworm actually chased after him.

Noel saw the earthworm's giant mouth that seemed to be able to engulf everything. There were sharp teeth all around the mouth. He would definitely get skewered alive the moment it devoured him.

"You're not going to do it!" Anna released a burst of Spiritual Energy, ready to jump on top of the earthworm to deliver a powerful blow.

Sadly, there was no way the other Peak Level Demons would allow such a thing. They had appeared around Anna, attacking her.
