After he conquered the three places which Lord Galliard had spoken about, Dilan’s stats were now at the Peak of Tier-2.

Even with the Cursed Blessing [Will of the Primordial, it was not possible for Dilan to increase his stats any further.

With that in mind, it was about time for the others to reach the peak of Tier-2 as well.

They didn’t need a lot of stats or Level anymore, which was why they ended up entering a certain Gate they had stumbled upon.

“What exactly is that Gate? I’ve never seen a Gate as big as this one, with so little information…” Sven spoke in doubt. His gut feeling told him that something was different about this Gate which worried him a little bit.

There were all kinds of Gates and the more unique a Gate was the bigger the danger. Subsequently, the bigger the dangers one overcame the greater the rewards one would receive.

“We can just find it out. Don’t worry too much,” Dilan tried to reassure his teammate. His train of thought was not on the exotic Gate he entered without hesitation but more on the fact that fighting monsters had become a lot different.

Fighting certain predators had become a lot more difficult, especially if the monsters were known as Warriors or something like that.

The Hobgoblin Warriors and War Champions had been extremely powerful even if their stats had only been at the Peak of the second Tier. Dilan’s stats had been a lot higher but he would have had a hard time killing them without the use of [Thunder Step], [Second Acceleration], and his extremely powerful equipment.

Now that he recalled his equipment, Dilan figured that he had to get his hand on a bunch of Essence crystals to finish upgrading the Hyel Destructo Armor Set.

He wanted to make sure that he would be prepared for the next Abyss advancement mission. Dilan had yet to even take a look at the advancement missions to Tier-3 but that was not exactly important right now either way.

In the end, he would choose the highest possible difficulty, either way. It was necessary for him to procure as many Ability Merits as possible, meaning that the highest difficulty advancement mission was a must-have.

However, even before Dilan could focus on anything else, his body reacted instinctively when he emerged on the other side of the Gate.

The surrounding area was reduced to ashes and three searing hot flames burst straight toward him. Dilan frowned when he saw this and he instinctively summoned Basic Water Spirits to create a huge wall of water in front of him.

A loud sizzling noise rang through his ear, which was why Dilan covered his body in tight layers of compressed water before he activated [Thunder Step], [Second Acceleration], and [Master of Gravity] before he shot forward.

Dilan ignored the searing hot flames that evaporated the water around him as he emerged in front of a five-meter tall three-headed dog whose body was enveloped in sizzling flames.

The three-headed dog’s fur was blazing red and its eyes were as dark as the abyss. They stared straight at Dilan, who smiled at the sight of a monster that was supposed to exist only in fairy tales.

“Cerberus!” Dilan muttered and the Cursed Dagger appeared in his hand. The Cerberus spit out more blazing flames that set his surroundings ablaze but Dilan was not intimidated by the monster’s power display.

He created several water jets, fired them at three pairs of eyes of the Cerberus and shot to his right. With a single dash that had been utilized with all his power, Dilan crossed almost a kilometer of distance. He turned around at once, leaned forward, and thrust the dagger forward just to accelerate further as he dashed back to the Cerberus.

His Agility was terrifying enough to easily overwhelm the Cerberus, an existence at Tier-2 with stats equivalent to the Mid Tier-3 Wyvern he had fought before.

However, even though Dilan’s stats were much higher, the Cerberus didn’t even think about giving up.

Hundreds of blazing fire walls erupted out of the ground, intending to protect the Cerberus, but little did the Monster know that Dilan wasn’t going to back off just because of the searing hot flames.

Dilan activated [Blood Sacrifice] to increase his Strength and Agility further. Simultaneously, Dilan made sure that his Strength would be powerful enough by activating [Switch].

He reallocated his stats temporarily by removing 150 Units from his Stamina and 50 Units from his Mana, which was then added to his Strength.

In response, Dilan’s muscles bulged and he felt terrific power surging through his body. Replacing the Basic Water Spirits with Basic Wind Spirits, Dilan tried to use his comprehension of Green Magic to enhance the power of the Wind spirits.

This worked out decently as he released a spear-like gust of wind toward the front, bursting apart tens of walls of fire that crumbled down as if they were made up of loose soil.

The blazing flames that touched Dilan’s skin tried to burn him alive but Dilan’s Health was more than 600 Units, crossing the threshold ordinary Peak Tier-3 existences could reach.

However, the Cerberus was not an ordinary existence, just like Dilan!

The moment the Cursed Dagger was about to pierce deep inside the Cerberus’ left flank, it turned into countless blazing flames.

Dilan could only perceive the Cerberus’ Essence crystal and a red marble that moved at a rapid pace. Both the Essence crystal and the tiny marble appeared above Dilan and a moment later the Cerberus revealed itself as it hovered above Dilan.

Two of the Cerberus three heads spit out flames while the head in the middle lunged out toward him.

Dilan twisted his body to see what was going on above him, just for a smile to appear on his face.

‘Don’t underestimate me, tiny doggo!’ Dilan shouted in his mind, activating [Short-distance traveling] to escape the monster’s snapping maw and reappear right above the Cerberus.

He manifested powerful air currents in an attempt to disperse the searing hot flames around him but that failed miserably. Thus, Dilan ended up pushing the Cursed Dagger downward.

Dilan was about to kill the Cerberus with a single blow when the monster sensed danger and dispersed into countless blazing flames once again.

The Cerberus’ body was much hotter than the flames it could manifest and Dilan ended up frowning as his other hand pierced out through the monster’s skin. He reached out for the red marble while activating his Gloves’ [Breaker] ability.

Using [Breaker] in addition to his terrific Strength, Dilan was given the opportunity to break the red marble and he made use of it immediately.

Tiny cracks appeared all over the surface of the red marble the moment Dilan used all his force into his arm and it was not soon after that a loud roar overflowing with pain filled the air.

“Yes, die for me!” Dilan screamed at the top of his lungs as the Cerberus emerged in front of him again. His entire hand was stuck deep in the monster’s chest and the three heads of the Cerberus were snapping viciously, trying to bite off his head.

But Dilan just smiled as he used all of his might to pull his hand out of the chest of the monster while his other hand pierced forward once again as powerful air currents accelerated his dagger thrust.

And it was just a moment later that the body of the Cerberus was torn apart, revealing Dilan’s blood-drenched body and the excited smile on his face.

“That’s how I like it!”
