Eon roared, and his thunderous war cry echoed throughout the enclosed space he was in. He spread his arms, exposing his white sharp claws. Then he dashed over to where the two remaining Lesser Wizowls were.

The Lesser Knightowl, as expected, rushed in to protect its allies and used its skill, Talon Attack, to stop Eon's charge. Despite the fact that the Talon Attack knocked him back a few steps, Eon simply blocked the attack and did not stop.

[Talon Attack has dealt 317 damage to your Ice Armor.]

Then another Wind Blast explosion occurred as one of the Lesser Wizowl threw it as the Lesser Knightowl was far away from Eon. Eon covered his head with his arms and came to a halt for a split second.

[Wind Blast has dealt 372 damage to your Ice Armor.]

Eon's Ice Armor became so tough that even after two lethal attacks, it still had 4 HP remaining. A combination that was supposed to be capable of killing powerful monsters failed to even penetrate his Ice Armor. Furthermore, his armor could be easily replaced.

[Ice Armor has 693 HP.]

Eon continued his charge as an unstoppable force, ignoring all of the damage thrown at him and dodging the Lesser Knightowl's attempts to slow him down.

[Lethal Augmentation has been activated.]

[Icy Touch has been activated.]

As Eon approached, the Lesser Huntowl decided to strike to protect the two Lesser Wizowls. It had no idea how Eon's skill worked, and its only attack was the worst possible matchup against Eon... Of course, it had no idea. So it flapped its wings and used Assassin's Acceleration and Aerial Assassination.

The Lesser Huntowl charged at Eon, aiming for his neck for a fatal slash. The Lesser Huntowl's speed was so fast that it was impossible to avoid its attack, especially by Eon, who was snail slow in comparison and had a massive body that was easy to hit.

Eon, on the other hand, had no intention of avoiding its attack.

Eon simply stood there and let the Lesser Huntowl's blade-like wing slice through his neck like a deadly assassin. The Lesser Huntowl fell to the floor as soon as it passed Eon, and its frozen body was crushed into pieces. A disappointing defeat for a monster widely regarded as one of the best night sky hunters.

[Aerial Assassination has dealt 350 damage to your Ice Armor.]

[Lethal Augmentation has dealt 270 damage.]

[Icy Touch has dealt 312 damage.]

Then another explosion occurred as Eon was hit by a surging Wind Blast. Eon shielded his head with his arm and stood firm as the devastating attack was smashed into him. The roaring sound of the explosion echoed, indicating its destructive power. Its target, however, remained standing and unstoppable.

[Wind Blast has dealt 343 damage to your Ice Armor.]

[Wind Blast has dealt 29 damage to you.]

Following the destruction of his Ice Armor, Eon removed his arm covering his head, revealing his exposed face. Eon's gray eyes darted toward the two Lesser Wizowls' location. His eyes had no life, emotion, or reaction—all that could be seen was a pair of void eyes filled with indifference staring at its victims fighting for their lives—the eyes of the apathetic conqueror.

Eon continued to walk forward, his emotionless gaze fixed on his two main targets. He could no longer be stopped; his prey's only option was to flee, which they would never do because they had family members inside the nest who needed to be protected at all costs. It was now a choice between being killed by Eon while attempting to protect their family or killing Eon.

The second option was already out of reach for them...

[Vanguard has been activated.]

[Vanguard has granted you 215 damage reduction.]

Eon rushed toward the two Lesser Wizowls, avoiding the Lesser Knightowl, who was attempting to slow him down. It tried to attack him, but Eon's tenacity was too great for the Lesser Knightowl to overcome. The Lesser Knightowl could only knock Eon back a few steps, delaying him in his path—it would only delay what was unavoidable.

Eon collided with two Wind Blasts, both of which exploded on him. Their attacks, however, did not even make Eon flinch.

[Wind Blast has dealt 367 damage to your Ice Armor.]

Eon roared as he leaped to the narrow corner where the two Lesser Wizowls were hiding before transforming into a Lesser Huntowl. Because of the level difference, the Lesser Wizowls were faster than him, but those differences wouldn't matter much if they didn't have anywhere to go due to the size of the area they could fly in.

Eon spun through the air as he pursued the two Lesser Wizowls. When he got close enough, he spread his wings and transformed into Lesser Bildabear, grabbing both of them at the same time.

[Deceitful Shapeshifter has been activated.]

Eon reached the two Lesser Wizowls with his long, fast, and powerful arms. He didn't need to grab them; all he needed was a quick brush against each of their wings.

[Lethal Augmentation has dealt 0 damage.]

[Icy Touch has dealt 117 damage.]

The two Lesser Wizowls plummeted to the ground, each with one of their wings immobilized, making it impossible for them to fly. Following the two Lesser Wizowls, Eon made a loud landing on the floor. He approached the struggling Lesser Wizowls.

They had no way of escaping, and they couldn't fight back because all of their MP had been depleted when Eon's attack was absorbed by the Mana Shield. Eon approached the two Lesser Wizowls slowly and stood in front of them, preventing them from crawling any further. Eon sat, his glowing blue eyes hidden inside his helmet, staring at the two. He slowly extended both of his hands toward the two and placed them on top of the heads of the two Lesser Wizowls. Just a gentle touch, no aggression or brutality.

Understanding what was about to happen, the Lesser Knightowl used its skill, Talon Attack, to try to stop Eon, but its attack failed to even move Eon.

[Talon Attack has dealt 312 damage to your Ice Armor.]

While ignoring the Lesser Knightowl, who was desperately trying to save its allies, Eon went about his business.

[Icy Touch has been activated.]

[Icy Touch has dealt 323 damage.]

[Icy Touch has dealt 323 damage.]

Eon dispatched the two Lesser Wizowl without causing unnecessary pain. Both died in such a painless and quick manner that they simply closed their eyes as their entire bodies turned into ice statues.

[Deceitful Shapeshifter: a new form has been acquired. The Lesser Wizowl form is now available for use.]

The Lesser Knightowl, which had failed to protect its allies, rushed toward Eon while roaring in rage. It activated Talon Attack once more and aimed its sharp white talons at Eon's neck.

[Lethal Augmentation has been activated.]

[Icy Touch has been activated.]

Eon, on the other hand, did not duck and slammed his arms into the Lesser Knightowl. While being slashed by the Lesser Knightowl's sharp talons, Eon reached for the Lesser Knightowl's wings and touched the bases of its wings.

[Talon Attack has dealt 312 damage to your Ice Armor.]

[Lethal Augmentation has dealt 5 damage.]

[Icy Touch has dealt 49 damage.]

The Lesser Knightowl flew down and crashed to the ground. The bases of its wings were partially frozen, but not completely immobilized. The Lesser Knightowl was still able to fly and fight, proving to Eon that fighting it was pointless.

He then turned his back on Lesser Knightowl and walked deeper into the nest, where the eggs and four more members of their nest could be found. One was another Lesser Knightowl, and the others were three Lesser Wizowls, one of which was completely vulnerable while in the process of evolution. Eon's main target was the one that was still in hibernation.
