The Over-Break System

"Whatever that Element is, it didn't interact well with your Dark Mana, we don't know how it will with my Water Particles, but the difference is, I don't rely heavily on my Affinity to fight as you do. Although we don't know why or how it was able to explode your Mana, the fact that it can is proof alone that you can't square up with the Ogodoth anymore. Leave it to me; I will figure something out." Speaking with authority, Benny began walking to greet the horde of demons and their leader.

Watching the younger boy walk into battle, the image of her boyfriend and Brance overlapped with Benny in Selene's eyes, making her smile.

"That kid is turning into a little juggernaut just like the brothers. Right, let's go kick that overgrown smurfs ass." Smacking her cheeks and pulling a different spear from her inventory since the last one was still embedded in the pillar, Selene took off in a brisk jog to fight the Veb'lema.

Benny's senses were on high alert as he approached the small horde of demons; everything inside him was screaming not to get closer. Yet one foot after another, he walked calmly towards them, with his shield hanging by his side and his Estoc resting on his shoulder.

"Kekeke," The swollen muscular Ogodoth cackled as it noticed Benny slowly walking over with a stoic expression on his face.

"Yark, keark, Kekeke." The black demon said while waving its hand and forcing five demons, two Tiz'gog and three Begraz, to charge forward with their arms flailing and drool dripping from their mouths.

Fifteen meters, 10 meters, 5 meters, when the creatures were within three meters, Benny hopped onto his right foot, stutter-stepped, shot to the left, and swung his shield, instantly decapitating the first Begraz.

Next, he brought up his Estoc at a high cross-body fencing pose, temporarily resting the pommel of his sword against his left shoulder before thrusting forward and stapping a Tiz'gog through the eye.

Without allowing the remaining three demons to have time to react, Benny channeled a puddle of water under his feet and used it to glide back to the right while spinning and backhanded a Begraz with his shield crushing its skull like an egg and splattering gore into the air.

Benny smirked at the panic in his enemy's eyes and used his puddle to slide forward between the remaining two demons. He then used his shield to kill one and his Estoc to smash the final Begraz into a pulp by bringing the heavy blade down on its head, collapsing its spine into its body and erupting its guts out of its abdomen.

Slashing his weapons downward and clearing them of the blood-turned particles, Benny reinforced his control over the water particles that had taken the form of a puddle and continued strolling toward the horde, which had lost five of its 18 members in mere seconds.

A menacing grin spread across the Ogodoth's face as he watched the being slaughter its five underlings as if nothing had happened and continuing his approach. By waving its hand and grunting or growling, it ordered the remaining thirteen demons to attack.

Yet, when the Ogodoth noticed no change in Benny's posture or even facial expression, it narrowed its eyes and began channeling its peculiar Affinity. Although its thoughts were relatively simple and comparable to a young child, the creature was aware that the being calmly making its way over was in no way weak.

BOOOOOMMMMM

A loud echoing explosion shook the whole room, startling the demons as they fearfully glanced in Selene's direction only to find that the girl had sliced off one of the Veb'lema's arms and flung it in their direction, where it had collided with several pillars.

Considering this momentary lapse in judgment, Benny kicked off the ground and ran forward, propelling himself on thin puddles of water connecting his feet to the ground as if they were skates.

Having reduced friction on the stone ground, he glided over it smoothly and rapidly accelerated his movement speed, crashing like a wrecking ball into the horde of demons.

Each swing of his Estoc or bash with his Aspis signified another life reaped. But he didn't go overboard; instead, when only nine creatures were remaining, he chose to cleanly take out their legs, just below the knee, rendering them unable to stand or run away.

Breaking through the other side of the horde, Benny flourished his Estoc and pointed it at the Ogodoth, who stared back at him with pure unadulterated rage in its yellow eyes.

Sniffling and tilting his head to the side, Benny waved his sword slightly, indicating that he wanted the royal demon to advance on him. Still, the black-skinned demon froze in place, shooting worried looks toward the Veb'lema and Selene's direction.

It couldn't help but think this person who had quickly slaughtered most of its underlings and crippled the rest was too much for it, even with its Affinity.

Its instincts were screaming that it should run. Still, its pride as a member of the royal bloodline refused to let it be a coward, so pumping Mana particles into its muscles, swelling them further, the Ogodoth let loose a mighty roar and charged at Benny with reckless abandon.

Benny's eyes narrowed; seeing his opponent throw caution to the wind, he expanded the Water particles under his feet, increasing their width by three times, and skated around a pillar, circling to the side of the muscular Ogodoth.

His eyes locked onto the strange bloody platinum-colored haze surrounding the creature's body and decided to test if it had the same effect on his Water Mana as it did Selene's Dark.

Leaning around the pillar, Benny manifested a [Water Spear] and launched it across the distance between himself and the demon. Without taking his eyes off the spear, he pushed off with his right leg and skated backward, putting more space between himself and the Ogodoth.

The reason was that he wasn't entirely sure what the creature had done to Selene's Mana and didn't know if there was a specific radius or range for the rebounding attack. In an attempt to be safe rather than sorry, he skated away several meters just as the spear was about to impact the demon.

To Benny's astonishment, snapping its head in the direction of the Affinity attack, the Ogodoth stretched out its hand, caught the spear, and corrupted it like it had doused a metallic weapon in acid.

He watched with wide eyes as the spear broke down into nothing but steam and reformed back into a solid construct, only now it was garnet and platinum instead of light blue.

Grinning wide enough to expose its many rows of sharp pointed teeth, the Ogodoth flicked its wrist and sent the attack back at Benny.

Clicking his tongue and canceling his puddles, Benny put several pillars between himself and the incoming spear.

'What the fuck kind of Affinity is that. The particles not only corrupt and absorb the original ones, but they can replicate another person's Affinity skills.' Benny thought as he looked over his shoulder and saw the new spear breaking through one pillar after another as it chased him down like a homing missile.

'Fuck, what in Vinestra kind of power is that? I could probably only rip through two, maybe three pillars at best, but now that new spear has crashed through five and isn't showing any signs of slowing or losing power. Instead, it's like the damn thing is GAINING speed; how is that possible.' Benny complained in his mind, jumping to the side and narrowly avoiding the shimmering spear.

But that didn't stop it. Instead of stopping after missing, the spear circled and crashed through more pillars, increasing its speed further until it was difficult for Benny to keep up with it visually.

Looking around for an answer, Benny spotted Selene and the blue demon not far away and devised a plan. Kicking off the ground and sprinting as fast as possible, Benny narrowly avoided another attack from the spear and headed toward the ongoing battle.

"SELENE! HEADS UP!" Benny shouted as he drew closer and dodged the exploding stone fragments threatening to land on his body.

"What in the FUCK? BENNY, ARE YOU INSANE?" Having just enough time to look over at the boy being chased by a blood-red and platinum spear, Selene's jaw dropped as she blocked an overhead slash from the Veb'lema's sword.

Pushing against her shield with all her might, Selene recoiled the sword up and threw her body to the side as Benny came rushing by with the spear hot on his heels and slid under the sizeable blue demon's legs.

SHOOOOOOOMM SQUELCH!

"RUUGG?" The Veb'lema said as it felt something wet on its chest. Tilting its head to the side, it saw a long bloody spear sticking out of its torso where its heart was and had only enough time to utter a cry of anguish as its body began melting into sludge.

"SELENE NOW!" Benny screamed as he jumped up and kicked the demon in the back, sending it Selene's way.

Reacting to her teammate's shouts, Selene spun her spear and hurled it into the demon's head, and with another wet impact sound, the demon shattered into particles, triggering the kill notifications for her.

|You have successfully Killed a Level 10, Early Tier-2 Virtual Veb'lema Demonoid.|

|You have received 10 Obelisk Kill Points.|

|You have received one KCP (Kill Counter Point).|

|You have received a 10000 Essence, XP Crystal.|

|You have received 6 Merit Points.|

Checking her notifications, Selene ran over to Benny and helped him up since he had fallen onto his back after drop-kicking the demon with both feet.

"What the heck was that all about, Benny? You suddenly run over and start barking orders. What was that spear?" Dusting off the boy's back, Selene looked from Benny toward the Ogodoth, who was wearing a stunned expression due to his attack landing on his companion.
