God's Slave: Reincarnated Into an Academy of Heavenly Descendants

In the next instant, Nolan's hand, gripping the chain, immediately began to roll it with swift speed.

The crimson flames on the chain burst out with powerful intensity.

Nolan rushed forward, his legs glued to the wall as he ran along its surface, weaving through the various attacks.

Running on the ground will make him to succeptible to the various attacks as it was more wider and all right above the Hydra.

Besides there were deep craters and corrosive ground which slowed Nolan down and which the creature itself was well aware.

It could easily take advantage of that and gravely injure him and that was a risk Nolan couldn't afford.

He needed to finish the battle in this last burst of energy as after it he'll be done and almost too weak to fight!

Cracks were formed in the walls as he sped forward, dodging the venomous and destructive attacks of the Hydra whose attacks were even more destructive than usual.

It was clear both fighters were aware the battle was nearing its end, and each went all out to defeat the other.

Using his last burst of physical power, Nolan swiftly weaved through the attacks and appeared close to the Hydra, positioning himself behind it.

In an instant, the Hydra slammed its tail forth, it's nearest source of atta but Nolan jumped off the wall, soaring high above the beast.

Immediately, the Hydra's fire head opened its mouth, charging an ominous, destructive purple beam. The Hydra's other heads gathered all their power, trying to reduce Nolan to ashes. But Nolan moved faster. Veins bulged on his burnt skin, and he flung his chain forth with all his might.

**VRROOOOOM!**

The air exploded violently as the chain tore through with tremendous power, wrapping tightly around the Hydra's neck. With a powerful roar, Nolan pulled with all his strength.

**SCREEEEECH!!!**

A horrific, painful scream echoed through the arena as the Hydra's energy was drained by the strange force from the chain. The destructive attack it had been gathering immediately weakened. Yet, the Hydra still released it, slamming into Nolan.

But he pushed through, ignoring the searing pain. In an instant, his dagger appeared in his left hand as he closed in on the Hydra's chained head.

"NOW!!!" Nolan screamed to himself, appearing before the bound Hydra.

RIIIIIP!

RIIIIIP!

RIIIIIP!

RIIIIIIP!

The sound of the blade tearing through the Hydra's thick skin resounded throughout the arena as Nolan collapsed, smashing into the ground uncontrollably.

He tumbled, rolling away from the impact.

BAAANG!

BAAANG!

BAAANG!

BAAANG!

The four heads of the Hydra rolled away from his figure, stopping a few meters from him.

BAAAANG!

A louder crash resounded as the Hydra's body finally slammed into the ground, remaining motionless.

Burnt and exhausted, Nolan slowly raised his head, breathing heavily as he stared at the Hydra's dead body, then rose to his feet.

[Congratulations!]

[Main Quest: Defeat the Hydra has been successfully completed!]

[Host has been awarded 2 Level-Up Cards!]

The system notification called out to Nolan, who staggered back a few steps before slumping against the wall, breathing uncontrollably.

"Finally... I defeated a three-headed Hydra!" Nolan thought to himself.

Never in his entire existence did he think he would ever come across a living Hydra.

He had believed they were nothing more than myths.

Yet here was one before him, all breath of life having left it, with its severed heads spilling dark blood across the area.

He had not just seen a Hydra—he had faced it and emerged victorious!

{Congratulations on your successful quest, Newcomer!}

{You have more than shown your capability, and your result in this test is undoubtedly a full mark!}

A loud voice boomed throughout the area. Nolan listened closely, realizing he had passed this phase of the test and that it was now time to leave.

{But here is a bonus phase of this test. Passing it will grant an additional 25 points, along with your full mark of 100!}

{This would raise your score to 125, instead of the usual 100 marks.}

{Would you like to take this test? Acceptance and passing will reward you with an additional 25 points, and failure will cause no harm—you will simply be teleported back to the real world.}

{Make your choice in... 10... 9... 8... 7...}

Immediately, the loud voice continued its countdown, as if expecting him to refuse.

But at the last second, Nolan's eyes widened in shock.

There was an extra bonus phase to the test? Completing it would bring him an additional 25 points! The idea was tempting, no doubt.

However, his body was battered, and he didn't think he had a single ounce of strength left to fight.

{5... 4... 3... 2...}

The countdown continued swiftly, urging him to make a decision.

"Yes!" Nolan suddenly shouted, pushing himself off the cracked walls where he had crashed. His dagger steeled once more in his hand.

{Congratulations on making your choice.}

{The bonus phase of the test will now begin!}

The voice resounded again.

As Nolan watched, the dead body of the Hydra and the remnants of the Minotaur began to fade away into tiny particles, leaving only the destroyed battlefield behind.

The arena reverted to what it once was, and Nolan turned his head to the side, noticing the last cage in the area was slowly opening.

An overwhelming sense of danger struck him. Yet, despite the fear, Nolan steeled his resolve.

He knew this would undoubtedly be his final fight. He might as well see it through.

Besides, Nolan wasn't sure how he would perform in future tests.

Even if he performed worse than expected, the additional 25 points could cover for it.

He didn't want to have any regrets. He wanted to make sure he gave it his absolute best in every part of the test.

But then, as the creature before him fully stepped out, Nolan's face drastically changed.

Every cell in his body screamed in terror.

He instantly recognized the being before him.

"A... A Titan!!!"
