The Adventures of an Overpowered Knight in Another World

Chapter 311: Chapter 311- The [Hammer of Resolve] Strikes

”Kekeke... crying won’t help you. I am going to kill you anyway. Maybe I will use your skin next and mix in with the Knights. No, that lord told me to masquerade as a priest. Well, it cannot be helped now that I have been found out. Since you are at fault, pay with your life”.

BANG... There was a sonic boom followed by a large tentacle shooting out of its body and targeting the knight.

The Grimjaw used no magic or more like it couldn’t; however, to compensate for that flaw, it was bestowed with an extremely powerful body that was no different from any magic or skill.

As evident, the tentacle left ripples in the air as it came slamming. The destructive power within was so great that it could easily crush boulders and flatten steel. Even a knight who mastered [One with the Sword] would not take that attack head on and would most definitely dodge.

However, Tollivar had no plans of doing that.

ZOOMM... The giant hammer in his hand trembled. A blue light flashed, and the next second it came blasting through the air.

BANG... a loud boom echoed as the air was blasted apart along with the tentacle as if it were made of watermelon.

KIEEE... the demon cried out in anguish, the creepy flesh of its tentacles spraying everywhere. However, it was a high ranking demon in the end, its lost limb quickly regenerated back.

Enraged, the Grimjaw attacked. This time, multiple more tentacles sprouted from his body and attacked the knight.

BANG... BANG... BANG...

The result was... the same. All the tentacles that came targeting him were blasted into bits.
”What?” The Grimjaw was shocked; some seriousness was finally appearing in its eyes. ”Hmph, it looks like your stats are not bad. But if you think...”

”[Sky Cracking Swing]” It was unable to complete its sentence as the knight came charging at it with incredible speed. His loud roar shook the place and his hammer...

!!!

At that very instant, the Grimjaw’s body trembled, and it hurriedly dodged the attack.

BOOM... the swing missed; however, the air that was blasted apart created a column of pressurised air that charged towards the demon.

BANG... the latter used its tentacle to shield from the attack. Although it was pushed back a little, it was nevertheless unhurt. That said... What’s with that hammer?

At that very second, when the hammer was about to land, it saw the weapon violently pushing back the air so forcefully that it was actually distorting space from the friction.

Tollivar looked at the demon and then at the remaining glow in the hammer. Wasting no time, he sprang back to action again. His muscles roared, and veins slithered like a dragon.

BOOM... BOOM... BOOM... Every swing calculated, every brunt containing all of his strength, and every smash shaking the entire village.

When the giant hammer in hand moved, it caused an explosion of air and shockwave, so loud that it was no different than a clap of thunder, capable of even waking up the dead.

That was not all, his skills that were polished and accumulated over long years of service, had complete understanding and mastery over the hammer. Increasing the damage dealt exponentially.

When the demon attacked with its [Spinal Lance] ability, Tollivar responded with [Armor Implosion], a skill that not only dents but causes the armor and bones to collapse from within, crushing ribs and snapping spines.

The Grimjaw’s [Spinal Lance], which was actually its fortified spine that it could extend and retract like a flexible whip and attack with precision, was completely crushed.

KIEEE... it cried out again in anguish, though the next second, it used those shattered bones like spikes, controlling them all individually as if they were its own arms and legs.

[Marrow Spike] A skill that, once injected inside the body of its target, would then grow and rupture after a slight delay. A truly horrifying skill.

Of course, it was not the end. The demon attacked again and again, all of its attacks were physical based and extremely powerful. [Bone Swarm], [Wight’s Spine], [Grave Bloom], all kinds of abilities manifested.

[Bone Swarm] unleashed a cloud of animated bone fragments. [Wight’s Spine] turned the Grimjaw’s vertebrae into a spectral serpent, fast and deadly. And [Grave Bloom], which caused large spikes that were actually the bones of the demon, to protrude out from the ground and impale the knight.

Facing an attack that came from all directions, Tollivar did not panic; instead, he swung his hammer.

”[Vaccum Howl]” The swing pulled all air inward, creating a moment of eerie silence. Then with a boom, all that air exploded outward in a deafening roar. Every and all attacks thrown by the demon were instantly crushed.

From the beginning, Tollivar was completely dominating the battle. Observing all of this from the hill, Reinhardt narrowed his eyes. To any observer, it would look like the knight was in complete control of the fight and doing well against the high ranking demon.

However, that was nothing but a misguided judgment. The demon had to use its most powerful weapon yet, the Ouroboros curse. The gigantic serpent mark that was hovering above the village in an ethereal form.

Furthermore, there was also Tollivar’s time limit. The knight might have returned to the time when he could fight demons like in his heyday. Though it was not like it was permanent.

The current form of Tollivar was a borrowed power that had a fixed time limit. Borrowed because it was a strength that he had taken from his hammer, his partner who had gone through all the storms with him and absorbed all the experience, power, skills, and battles.

In this final moment, it bestowed the knight the power to fight the evil one last time.

”Hm?”

At this moment, Reinahrdt sensed the villagers coming up the hill.

”S-Sir Knight, are you the one Sir Tollivar said would protect us?” An old man who seemed like the village chief asked.
