The death of the king
51
Hope launched a golden web that hit Alex, with his low mobility in the air there wasn't much he could do, he was thrown with enough force that he tore the web network, crashing violently into the ground.
A huge crater opened with Alex in its center, excruciating pain ran through his body, his HP and MP were on their last legs, there was a red in their numerical representation.
Even bleeding, Alex cut the web that bound him using Excalibur, the time had come, he would risk everything with his next blow.
Lightning Step Lv2, Alex concentrated his gravitational authority in his body becoming lighter, his movement skill was used to its maximum.
Alex screamed loudly, his skin tearing as lightning tore through him as he reached speeds he hadn't been able to reach in the past.
Alex ran in a circle leaving hope in the middle creating a tornado that sucked the air from the center.
Alex's figure turned into electric bolts, his eyes glowed a luminous purple causing gravity to distort, his gravitational control wasn't perfect, but he hoped it would be enough.
Excalibur shone as its weight increased considerably, Alex used all of his strength attribute to support such weight on his sword.
The spider king's body was lifted into the air, he fired several energy shots, but Alex dodged them with great dexterity and agility while keeping moving.
Alex used everything he had to deliver a single attack, he jumped to where the spider king was floating writhing in the air, with a war cry that helped him focus all his power, Excalibur descended.
In that moment the world seemed to stand still, time seemed to be frozen, Excalibur descended in what seemed like an eternity.
All of the spider king's paws rose to protect his head, his rationality hadn't returned, but he felt that perhaps his beastly body wouldn't be enough to oppose the attack that descended on his head.
The authority of gluttony burst like a dam, the king's roar reached the sky, a massive energy wave formed at the tip of his tongue and grew larger and larger.
Excalibur collided with the energy sphere and an explosion occurred, destroying everything around it.
The already dark sky began to cry, as the explosion retracted and a huge circular crater devastated the forest, rain began to fall.
A dead forest had its first rain in so long.

"Are you okay?" When Tiffany's eyes opened, the first person she saw was her sister.
"Maná, are you dead too? Are we all dead now?" Tiffany joked when she saw her sister's look of concern.
"This time you worried me so much that I almost had a heart attack, drink it carefully." Tatiana passed a potion to her sister, who drank the entire bottle without ceremony.
"What happened to your hair?" Tatiana ran her fingers through her sister's once long hair. Not only was it stained red, but it had also been burned in some parts.
The potion Tiffany just took recovered her HP, her injuries disappeared in seconds, however, the potion did nothing to recover hair fibers that had been lost,
Her hair was long and silky, her sister who had short hair and shared a similar beauty, always envied the length of her sister's hair, but now?
She sighed.
"It will grow back, you don't need to worry." Tatiana gave a reassuring smile.
Tiffany looked at her sister, her eyes were swollen revealing all the weight she had to carry in this dungeon, it wasn't easy, she almost died so many times, hunters died protecting her, she almost collapsed.
All she wanted was to leave this dungeon and return to the sky room, spend several hours watching meaningless videos on the internet, perhaps all the horror she went through in this dungeon would disappear.
"Sister, I know this isn't the time or place to say this, but I'd like to say it anyway before you change your mind," she said hesitantly.
Tatiana looked at her sister encouragingly, touched her shoulder and said softly.
"You can say or ask whatever you want, I will make sure that this time everything goes as perfectly as possible."
Tiffany shook her head, it was exactly this attitude that made her reach the decision she made.
"Sister, I'm going to leave Guida, I won't be part of the Blue Spirit anymore." Despite her obvious tiredness, her swollen eyes revealed firmness in her words.
"Are you sure this is what you want?" Tatiana asked after a moment of contemplation.
"Yes, I do," Tiffany nodded and said.
"Okay, you can leave, there won't be a problem, I'll sort out the father issue." Tatiana gave her sister a firm hug. For Tiffany, Tatiana would do anything. It was like that before and it continues to be like that.
"Thanks sis" Tiffany looked away a little guiltily, there was something else, something she didn't have the courage to tell her sister.
She was sure if she told her sister what was going on in her mind, she might not let her leave and what's more, she didn't know what her protective sister would be capable of doing to stop her.
"Vice Guild Leader, we've fully recovered, can we leave the dungeon?" Rouke said respectfully.
Sarah and the other survivors were restless, they didn't want to stay there any longer, not to mention that it was raining outside.
All the members of the blue spirit guild were in a cave sheltering from the rain and recovering from their injuries, which they questioned internally, but no one had the courage to ask.
Why were they still in the dungeon? Because their deputy leader hadn't led them out of the dungeon.
"We're not done here yet" the caring woman who hugged her sister had disappeared, in her place was only a vice-leader of the blue spirit guild and her words reflected her status.
"Is there still something we need to do?" Sarah asked hesitantly, in response Tatiana nodded.
"The sword saint must have defeated the dungeon boss, if the boy Alex is alive, we will have to kill him" the words were spoken with murderous intent that made Daniel take a step back.
"Maná, do you still want to kill that man?" Tiffany frowned, she was the victim but her sister wanted that man dead so badly that maybe there was something she didn't know.
"There is no forgiveness for what he tried to do to you, even death is not enough to wash away his sin" her teeth will grit at the end of the words.
"He's probably already dead, but I have to see his body so he can rest easy." Everyone looked at Tatiana strangely.
"The last time I heard he was assigned to a dungeon, I bought someone from the association to have him killed, in the end he came out unharmed and even joined the hunters' association, this time I have to make sure he is really dead."
Everyone was silent, listening attentively to what Tatiana was saying.
"If the boy is alive, the sword saint will try to protect him. I'll take care of him while you cut off his head for me, okay?" She looked at her guild members.
"Yes, we will." Rouke was the first to agree, then everyone expressed their willingness to do as they were ordered.
"Very well, whoever takes his head off for me will be richly rewarded, you won't have to face dungeons again and your monthly income will be tripled and you will receive resources to level up."
As these words left Tatiana's beautiful mouth, the surviving members rejoiced, their eyes shining with greed, some of the distress caused by the dungeon had disappeared.
Tatiana seemed satisfied with the resolution of her guild members, you just had to have money and the hunters' hearts would be easily moved, and the wretch who dared to touch her sister, if not dead, will still die without a doubt.
Tatiana had ordered Alex's death from a professional assassin, but the assassin hadn't made a move yet. Now that she had the chance , she would kill Alex herself.
"Sis, what are you going to do about Arnaldo? I believe that killing an agent of the hunters' association constitutes a serious crime, don't you think?"
Tamiana laughed coldly as she heard her sister.
"It seems the association has lost its sword saint, Arnaldo can only blame his bad luck on being with a criminal"

Alex was on the ground unable to get up, he was breathing heavily, his MP was zero, Excalibur disappeared into his inventory, there were only 3 points left in his HP .
Killing Alex would be as easy as killing a fly, he couldn't even move, he was lying on the ground like a dying man, the worst thing was that even in this pitiful state, he still lost the little HP he had left.
"King of Camelot, you are truly formidable"
The body that was divided into two parts, dragged itself towards Alex, he was unrecognizable.
"I'm going to die soon, lucky for me you're alive, although I'm in a worse state than you, I can still move" there was only one part of the mouth that uttered such words, the other part had been destroyed.
"I have to thank my anatomy, if I were a human hunter, I would be dead without a doubt"
Alex saw part of a torn paw descend on his chest, the blow was precise, specifically targeting the heart, the gravitational defense did not activate and the paw descended too quickly.
