Chapter 43: Final Battle, Death of the Overlord-tier Exotic Beast
Grasping the flickering source spirit in his hand, Mike thought that it almost seemed to look like a miniature of the original god.
Suddenly, a streak of golden light surged into Mike’s forehead, prompting bands of colorful shadows to suddenly burst out.

[Skill Upgrade: Unify]
The Overlord-tier Exotic Beast abruptly froze when it saw Mike now glowing in front of it.
It was quickly able to realize that Mike seemed to have just completed some sort of upgrade.
Balls of scorching black flames once again launched themselves at him.
However, this time, Mike’s attributes had been boosted tremendously.
He performed what looked like a nonchalant light jump. As the black flames were about to find their mark, the only thing caught in the ensuing explosion was the afterimage created by his incredible speed.
The Overlord-tier Exotic Beast felt a bad feeling wash over it. At this moment, it was just about to enter its recovery phase.
Leaping into the air, Mike gently raised his hand, and golden fireballs instantly flew toward the Overlord-tier Exotic Beast.
Even though his similar attack earlier hadn’t caused much substantial damage to the beast, at this moment, the fireballs seemed to have taken a completely different appearance from before.
The golden flames pounced onto the Overlord-tier Exotic Beast once again.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
This time, the flames did not dissipate upon contact with the skin of the beast. Instead, they exploded one by one.
The Overlord-tier Exotic Beast recoiled as it once again covered its head with both hands, displaying its previous pained expression.
It was hard to tell whether this reaction was due to Mike’s attack or because it had entered its recovery phase.
The recovery phase this time seemed to be much shorter than before, and the Overlord-tier Exotic Beast soon woke up again.
“Roar!”
At the sound of its thunderous roar, Mike rapidly charged toward the beast.
A new onslaught of fierce attacks was launched again.
This time, Mike completely gave up on his dodging and weaving strategy.
“Offense is the best defense!”
Just as Mike was about ten centimeters away from the Overlord-tier Exotic Beast, golden flames once again shot towards the creature, exploding right in front of the Exotic Beast’s eyes.
A thick cloud of smoke suffocated the entire battlefield.
Through the heavy veil of smoke, Mike thought he saw two strange red lights.
Just as the smoke was lifting and about to disperse, they came clearly into view.
The two red lights were being emitted from the eyes of the Overlord-tier Exotic Beast.
‘Not good, it’s Dark Light!’
Already in the air, Mike urged his body to move, as if trying to launch himself by stepping on air.
‘Too late!’
Before he could even finish the thought, a red laser beam shot out instantaneously, destroying everything in its path and vaporizing all the trees and vegetation around. Even the ground beneath it split, leaving only a dark and bottomless ravine.

‘Looks like heaven is fated to be on my side! Overlord-tier Exotic Beast, today is the day you die!’
Mike found that he had landed less than a few centimeters away from the crevice on the ground.
It was precisely this few centimeters of distance that had allowed him to survive the terrifying Dark Light.
‘Fortunately, I used Flash in time. Otherwise, the result may have been different…’
Mike summoned his doppelganger, prepared to have it stall the Overlord-tier Exotic Beast. At the same time, he would have to find an opportunity to learn and purify the creature’s destructive light.
Mike sat on the ground with his legs crossed as the doppelganger flew toward the Overlord-tier Exotic Beast, summoning an army of skeletons in its wake.
The Overlord-tier Exotic Beast was slowly being overwhelmed by the battle facing it.
Since it didn’t have any AoE skills, it could only deal with the newly summoned undead army one by one.
The skeletons pounced on the Overlord-tier Exotic Beast one after another.
Although they were nothing but fragile in the face of the Overlord-tier Exotic Beast, it would take a while before they were wiped out.
“Wait a little longer, it’s almost done!”
The army of skeletons swarmed toward the beast incessantly, and the creature’s black flames struggled to burn them all.
[Dark Light Purification Upgrade: Demon Slaying Light]
“Great, the heavens are really on my side!”
By now, the skeleton army had almost been exhausted. Only a few badly damaged skeletons were left fighting with the Overlord-tier Exotic Beast.
With a final shot of the beast’s black venom, the remainders of the once massive undead army crumbled into ashes.
“Your sacrifices will not be wasted!”
Mike recalled his clone as he leaped into the air, charging straight at the creature’s face.
“Demon Slaying Light! Destroy!”
Mike’s eyes shone with luminescent holy light. Beams of light emerged from scattered points before gradually converging into a huge mass between his eyebrows.
The entire battlefield was illuminated by this blinding holy light.
“Explode!”
The light on Mike’s forehead rushed explosively toward the Overlord-tier Exotic Beast, shattering its body.
Without giving it any time to catch its breath, more rays of blinding white light followed.
“I, Mike, will pay you back for everything you’ve done to hurt us people of Earth. A thousand times, ten thousand times!”
Unfortunately, the Overlord-tier Exotic Beast had once again entered its recovery phase.
[Hidden Information: The Overlord-tier Exotic Beast is in a state of extreme rage, and is about to self-destruct. Be careful to avoid the blast. Upon contact with the poison emitted from the self-destruction of the Overlord-tier Exotic Beast, death is imminent!]
After receiving the hidden message, Mike quickly took a step backward.
The Overlord-tier Exotic Beast was once again holding its head in both hands. Its eyes were glowing red, and it was roaring continuously.
Mike promptly retreated, sprinting away at breakneck speed.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The entire battlefield was soon covered in what seemed to be an infinite pool of poison, corroding everything around it.
All living creatures in the vicinity lost their vitality at this very moment.
[System Notification]
“Mike has successfully killed an Overlord-tier Exotic Beast. The government has awarded Mike the Demon Hunter Medal.”
[World channel]
“We’ve won! Victory belongs to the people of Earth!”
“Mike is the GOAT! He can even kill an Overlord-tier Exotic Beast!”
“Mike! The superman of Earth!”
As the thick smoke dispersed, Mike’s figure slowly faded into view at the poison riddled area.
‘The crisis has finally been resolved!’
Mike looked over at the body of the Overlord-tier Exotic Beast, which was now shattered into pieces of various sizes.
A red box with a golden glow stood atop the main body of the fallen beast.
Mike walked toward the box.
[Hidden Information: The surface of the box is coated in the poisonous blood of the Overlord-tier Exotic Beast. Please use Baptism of Holy Light to purify it before opening it.]
‘Fortunately this hidden message appeared… Otherwise, the fierce battle would have been for naught!’
