The Moonlight Swordsman

Both Aizel and the young woman stared silently at the monster, who was slowly making his way toward them.

He was exuding the same presence and aura as the King of Monsters.

"Can he also use magic?" While getting ready for another death battle, Aizel wondered if this one would end his life.

The young woman drew her katana and assumed her battle stance, too.

"Does it have a name of any kind?" Aizel queried

"The locals called that monster "Monkey King," the woman replied.

"He could be strong, but compared to the monkey king, what crap is this?" "Monkey King, you've got to be kidding me." Aizel thought while comparing that monster from his own world monkey king.

But before Aizel could respond, the monkey king had vanished from his spot and appeared in mid-air, wielding a large club made of earth, dirt, and rock-like materials.

"Dodge," the young woman yelled as she used the wind to escape the area, while Aizel increased his speed by manipulating mana.

The monkey king slammed the club into the ground so hard that it created a deep crater and sent shockwaves all around him, sending some small monkey monsters flying.

The monkey king grinned as he looked at Aizel and the young woman, showing his long, sharp canine teeth.

"Holy shit," Aizel thought, taking back all the shit he had previously thought.

The young woman fired some small air bullets at the monkey king.

It was compressed air in the shape of a small bullet that appeared to be capable of penetrating anything. But just as the bullet was about to hit the monkey king, a stone wall made of earth and gravel appeared out of nowhere and stopped the attack.

The air bullet wasn't able to penetrate that.

The woman rushed towards the monster, gaining speed with the air, while Aizel focused on finding a weak point to attack.

Just as the monkey king was about to swing the club at the woman, she used the wind to leap into the air, missing the swing of the club while charging many small air bullets in mid-air.

This time, she fired small air bullets directly into the monster's body. But that didn't even scratch his white fur.

Just as the monster's attention was drawn to the lady, Aizel appeared on the monster's backside, performing a downward slash with his new sword, which had a few lightning sparks on it.

This time, the slash left a small burn mark on the monster's fur, which irritated the monster.

Aizel backed up quickly to avoid a direct confrontation with the monkey king. He realizes the monster must have a lot of strength, which he can even double with the earth element.

But suddenly, the monster threw his club toward Aizel. It was so fast that Aizel barely managed to avoid it by shifting his body slightly to the right and increasing his speed.

But the monster appeared right in front of him, wearing two earth-type gauntlets with spikes on his arms and punching Aizel.

Aizel used lightning to improve his reflexes while also increasing his speed. He deflected the punch, but then another, and another came.

The monkey was throwing punches like crazy, and one slip could turn Aizel into a bloody pulp.

A wind tornado blew into their path, sending both of them flying. Small cuts appeared on Aizel's body, but the tornado was primarily focused on the monster.

The young woman appeared in mid-air, floating, conjuring two more tornadoes in the direction of the monkey king.

The monkey roared as he slammed his fists into the ground, trying to construct a dome out of earth and rocks.

Tornadoes collide with the dome, tearing the dirt and rocks everywhere, but the dome eventually stood still until the end.

Aizel raised his sword with both hands while manipulating mana towards it, sharpening it and adding lightning to it.

He slashed it downward, and the lightning-filled slash split the dome in half. The young lady was taken aback by the technique Aizel had just demonstrated.

The dome quickly turned into dust, with nothing to be found inside. Aizel quickly realized what had happened.

But it was too late when the monkey king's hand grabbed Aizel's leg from beneath the ground.

Aizel quickly realized his mistake: the monkey king was an earth element user; how could he forget that the monster must have some method of traveling beneath the ground?

The monster appeared from beneath the ground, repeatedly slamming Aizel into the earth. Aizel screamed in agony as he tried to strengthen his body with mana.

The monkey king threw him into the trees like a baseball pitcher. Aizel flew around, tearing down trees one by one.

He flew 1 km away from the fighting area before coming to a halt on the ground while still rolling with momentum.

He groaned in pain as he realized his entire body was a total mess, with multiple fractures on his ribs, legs, and arms. There were numerous internal injuries in his body, making breathing difficult.

He quickly took out the healing potion from the ring and started drinking.

"Damn, this is going to be difficult."
