Strongest Hammer God

Chapter 1013: Hammer-Swinging Demon

The Demon Car traveled towards the east. However, it was more appropriate to call it Kyle. Kyleʼs mind had fully integrated with the Demon Car. When he moved the Demon Car, he didnʼt think about moving it but about moving himself.

As Kyle kept going towards the east, his many hands and heads moved around in the wind like hair. He was currently ten kilometers long, but if he chose to, he could shrink to a size of just 20 meters or grow to a size of thousands of kilometers. His countless hands expanded and retracted rhythmically.

At one point, an Initial Crusher Demon rushed towards him. The Initial Crusher Demon was an abomination made of several wings and talons, preferring speed and offense over defense.

It shot towards Kyle, its speed superior to his own. In the past, Kyle avoided fights since he had just been traveling, but now, things had changed. He needed to act like a proper Demon now, and Demons rarely fled from battles.

Wind Energies surrounded the Demon, increasing its speed even further. Its metallic talons stretched forward, intending to cut Kyle into pieces.

Kyle didnʼt evade.

CRKSH! CRKSH! CRKSH!

The talons broke into Kyleʼs body, filling his body with Metal and Wind Energy.

Yet, the Metal and Wind Energies lost their infused will as soon as they spread through Kyleʼs body. His own will took hold of them, and the Elemental Energies turned into nourishment.

Usually, the will of Elemental Energies flowing through oneʼs body wasnʼt relevant. Bodies worked with Neutral Energy and Biological Energy. It didnʼt matter if someone controlled the fire or not. There was still fire going through oneʼs veins.
Yet, Kyle was also an Elemental. While he couldnʼt absorb Elemental Energies with a will inside of them, he could absorb Elemental Energies that didnʼt have an owner.

In a fluid motion, the majority of Kyleʼs hands grabbed the talons stuck in his body. At the same time, a hole opened on Kyleʼs back, and his eight longest arms stretched into it.

In the next moment, the arms pulled a huge hammer out of the hole. The eight hands of the eight arms grabbed its hilt in different spots. Four elbows extended upward, while four elbows extended downward.

The muscles on Kyleʼs body bulged as six arms pushed the hammer down while the other two guided it. Almost every single muscle was engaged as the force of the strike multiplied with every additional joint.

The Demon sent more Elemental Energies into Kyleʼs body as it tried to pull back. Sadly, while its body was stronger than Kyleʼs body, it still wasnʼt strong enough to pull away from him.

The hammer hit a talon.

BANG!

The talon exploded into pieces, the hammer barely slowing down.

CRKSH! CRKSH!

The hammer broke through three wings before ramming into the Demonʼs body. Kyle shoved Elemental Energies into the Demonʼs body, which started to convulse.

The Elemental Energies denatured the Beast Core, interrupting its function.

The Demon was dead.

Kyleʼs claws held the corpse in the sky before tearing it apart. More of his claws burrowed into the body, and moments later, they pulled out again, a Beast Core in their grasp.

The corpse was dumped onto the ground, and the Beast Core was stored in another hole before Kyle continued his journey.

He didnʼt think much about the battle. The battle hadnʼt been difficult with all of his advantages.

A red burst of negative Karmic Luck appeared in Kyleʼs vision, but he ignored it. Both of his bodies were human, and neither of them was supposed to slaughter Divine Beasts without a good reason.

The burst of negative Karmic Luck ignored the Demon Carʼs Spirit and directly went for Kyleʼs Spirit. After all, the Demon Car couldnʼt make any choices. It didnʼt have a mind. All of the responsibility fell upon the thing that made the order, Kyleʼs mind.

The Laws of Karmic Luck had to work in this manner. Otherwise, Seekers could find ways to control the minds of other Seekers to gain resources unethically while receiving none of the negative consequences.

Karmic Punishment couldnʼt be outsourced.

Moments later, another Demon attacked, and Kyle killed it as well, gaining another Beast Core.

After some time, an Early Crusher Demon attacked Kyle.

It struck with its many claws, but Kyleʼs body adapted to the attacks so quickly that it seemed like it reacted to the attacks before they were even launched.

The claws moved past Kyleʼs body as if they had intended to miss.

The hammer returned, and the eight arms swung it. The Demon moved back to avoid the strike. Its body was far stronger, and with its superior speed, it seemed like it would succeed.

BANG! BANG!

Kyleʼs arms burst with blood as the speed of the hammer increased. The accumulated force was too much for his arms to handle, and his muscles gave out under the force. The only arms that were undamaged were the ones guiding the hammer.

BANG!

The hammer rammed into the Demonʼs body, its bit burrowing into its body before stopping mere centimeters before reaching the Beast Core. A volatile cocktail of Elemental Energies flooding into the Beast Core.

Kyle harvested another Beast Core before continuing.

He battled many more times, getting more familiar with his new body. After every battle, Kyle analyzed his bodyʼs performance, and afterward, he made minor adjustments.

Humans couldnʼt easily change their physiology. Changing the way his body worked wasnʼt supposed to be possible. Yet, the Demon Car was also an Elemental. It had a Spirit that defined its physical appearance by the standards of an Elemental, and Elementals didnʼt have fixed bodies. When it came to designing their bodies, they had even more freedom than beasts.

Kyle changed the muscles, creating longer paths through which the force of any swing could travel.

The small changes accumulated, and after a great number of battles, Kyleʼs body had already changed significantly. His body had become longer and thinner, giving his muscles more time to accumulate and transport power. The arms responsible for swinging the hammer grew thicker and longer at the base, while the hands became thin and metallic.

The majority of the other arms fused into gigantic wings. Kyle needed more speed to counteract the force of his strikes, and wings offered the greatest speed advantage.

Kyle kept killing more Early Crusher Demons, and eventually, he reached a place where Early Crusher Demons became rare, replaced by Mid Crusher Demons.

The Mid Crusher Demons were not very interested in killing Kyle. After all, he was just a Peak Primal. His existence didnʼt have a lot of weight.

However, there were still some Mid Crusher Demons that were desperate for resources. If they wanted to know more about Elements, they needed a place in a Law Well, and if they didnʼt bring enough fuel for the Law Well, the stronger Demons would kill them or drive them away.

One of these Mid Crusher Demons looked at Kyle and decided that his existence was worth the effort to hunt him.
