Reborn As An Evolving Monster

The Inferior Fire Wyrm's giant body became ash.

The Guardian turned around.

"Who's next?"

Shiver-

The next second, the Chaos Salamander Underling attacked.

A fire ball, the size of an apple, was fired from the small Underling's mouth.

[Chaos Fire Bullet: [C-] Ranked Magic Skill.]

While small in size, the attack's flames were red.

The Guardian turned towards the approaching attack before raising its hand.

"Now this type of fire..."

The Chaos Fire Bullet was stopped in mid-air, before it could hit the Guardian's open palm.

"Isn't bad."

The sphere was dissolved into the red flames it was made of.

Dissolved into "Flames Of Chaos".

"Let's mix in some of mine..."

As those words were spoken by the Guardian, the orange flames that made up its body moved.

A portion of those flames separated from the Boss Monster.

They encircled and danced around the "Flames Of Chaos".

'What the hell? Just how high is this guy's Fire Manipulation? Mine is [B] Ranked and yet...!' Mark thought with wide eyes.

Mark's was [B] Ranked.

And yet, he could barely make a small flame dance on his palm.

"That guy is too small. That one looks a bit fragile. The kitten and the spider seem too weak to take it. I guess you'll do."

The Guardian raised its arm as it turned towards Levi, who stood at Mark's side.

A smirk appeared on the Boss Monster's face.

The red "Flames Of Chaos" turned into a sphere.

The Guardian's orange flames engulfed it.

An attack that combined two different Types of Fire.

'It almost looks like-'

As the Guardian lowered its arm in Levi's direction, the ball of raging fire flew towards him.

Levi braced for the impact, and a net of lightning covered his body.

An excited expression appeared on the Guardian's face.

"I'll call it 'Blazing Sun'. What do you think of it?" The Boss Monster candidly asked Levi.

Just before the attack hit Levi, it suddenly shifted directions.

The attack had changed targets.

A great explosion occurred.

The spot where Mark stood seconds earlier, was now covered by a black cloud.

"My Lord!" Levi shouted.

"Your Lord...? Aren't you the strongest here?" The Guardian asked.

Both Levi and the Guardian stared at the dark cloud of smoke.

Suddenly, as if cut by a sword, the fog that covered Mark split.

It faded away.

The Guardian laughed out loud.

Mark couldn't help but chuckle in response, even though the attack had burnt parts of his body.

'Fire Manipulation that can not only consume fire attacks, but also change the direction of its attacks after they were launched...'

Mark's Advanced Kinetic Vision had bought him just enough time to realize he was the attack's true target.

Noticing the attack's sudden change in direction, his Passive Skill "Fire Hide[C+]" covered his body while he activated his "Impenetrable Barrier[C]".

'It's good. It's impressive. It's really good...'

Something growled within Mark.

'Ahh... It's been a while... Since I felt this...'

Its growling got fiercer and fiercer while Mark's breathing got heavier and heavier.

'I can't wait...'

"So that wasn't enough, huh? Maybe you truly are this guy's lord. Though you don't seem like much of a lord to me." The Guardian said mockingly.

Red Aura oozed out of Mark's whole body.

"My Lord?" Levi asked, waiting for directions.

Mark extended his sharp claws.

'I can't wait...'

Drops of saliva went down his sharp fangs.

'I just can't wait...'

Thick veins became visible all over his body.

Mark's legs hit the ground.

BOOM-

The ground below him shattered, as he leaped forward.

'To make you mine.'

Before the Guardian could even react, Mark's fist, engulfed in Aura, went through its chest.

Such strength was exerted, that the Guardian's upper body dissipated.

Its lower body disappeared with a flick of Mark's tail.

"Now, now. You've already tried this, haven't you?" The Guardian argued.

The flames that made up its body reappeared a couple of meters away.

Levi, understanding his Master's actions, immediately attacked.

'No matter whether its body is truly those flames or if its real body will appear later...'

Levi's fists were covered with lightning as he attacked, protecting him from the Fire.

'These flames burning... These flames made to disappear and reappear out of thin air...'

"What's gotten into you? You're making it-"

Before the Guardian could finish its sentence, its body was forced to disappear once more.

'These things cost Mana. You can't have an infinite supply of it, therefore...'

This time, the Guardian appeared a bit further away, but all the same, its body faded once more.

'We'll make you run out.' Mark thought as his attack made the Guardian's body disappear.

Again and again, their attacks forced the Boss Monster's flames to fade and reappear.

After ten exchanges, Mark and Levi were both focused on their surroundings.

They waited for the Guardian to reappear.

Realizing that their Master was wide open, Mark's Underlings attacked the Guardian.

"My, oh, my... You've chosen..."

'It's-'

"A really boring route."

The voice came from above.

In an instant, three Chaos Fire bullets and two Lava Bombs were shot.

"There you go! That's what I'm talking about!" The Guardian, who was standing upside down on the ceiling shouted.

The Boss Monster stared at the approaching attacks.

"Give me some more toys to play with." The Guardian added.

Before the attacks reached the Guardian,

'Stop butting in. Get inside the Necklace.' Mark ordered coldly.

But,

[Familiar Necklace is unable to store Underlings due to the influence of Foreign Mana.]

'You mean this guy's flames make it unable to-'

"Let's see..." The Guardian whispered as the Fire Attacks danced around his body.

Attacks, that once again, were made his.

There was no doubt in their minds that the next attack would be a very strong one.

And so, Mark and Levi continuously leaped around the room with great speed.

A desperate attempt to try and make the Guardian miss its shot.

'ALL OF YOU! GET OUT!' Mark ordered the rest of his Underlings.

The next second, Light, Fiery, the Inferior Lava Drakes and the Chaos Salamander turned away from the center of the room and towards the exit.

The Moonlit Feline, resting on top of Fiery without a care in the world, didn't complain.

"Wowowow! Not so fast!" The Guardian shouted.

Its body faded away with insane speed.

Before Mark's Underlings could leave the room, a giant wall of burning fire appeared, blocking its exit.

"Where is it?" Levi asked, as he looked around the Boss Room.

"If you all won't keep feeding me more then... I might as well turn you to dust."

The voice came from the wall of fire.

Mark noticed that a portion of the wall was made of red flames.

Another, of molten lava.

'Shit...!'

Mark instantly leaped towards that wall of fire.

A flick of his tail made a breach, but the flames quickly closed it back.

An arm of fire was extended from that wall.

"Ahh... The opportunity to play with so many types of Fire... What fresh inspiration this is..."

Mark positioned himself in front of Fiery.

"Too bad it'll have to end now-"

'Huh...?' The Guardian felt slightly confused by Mark's positioning.

Levi immediately took Mark's side.

In front of the Guardian's arm, the red flames and the molten lava from Mark's Underlings were blended with the Guardian's own fire.

This time though, it used much, much more fire.

Mark felt a chill down his back.

'Shit! I won't be able to stop this one...'

The amount of power amassed earlier was nothing compared to now.

The attack hadn't been launched.

And yet, Mark and his Underlings could feel extreme heat coming from it.

Despite their Fire and Heat Resistances, they could feel the air around them start to slightly burn their skin and lungs.

"I'll call this one..."

The Molten Lava was surrounded by the "Flames Of Chaos".

Great amounts of the Guardian's Fire engulfed it.

"Scorching Star."
