Chapter 33: Slayer vs alastair

The expedition camped out in front of a natural red stone system that led to the slayers lair so everyone was well rested for the battle on the next day. that night sylvando learned of their quest to stop the dark one due to his prying but dodged the topic of his own past with the excuse of being tired. rest of the night was spent with the party maintaining their equipment before turning in for the night. the next morning the early risers of the party got up and started to prepare breakfast for the rest nothing fancy just some smoked sausages and bread with preserved butter.

Everyone ate quickly with most of them having enough with erisa being the only exception due to her large appetite. thankfully she had an entire space bag filled with food just for this reason so she also got enough food as well as horrifying sylvando who watched the equivalent of a cow vanish down the girls throat. when sylvando asked about it veronica explained about erisa's race and how if affects their appetites as well as why erisa was in the party to begin with.

"oh honey don't you know the brave knight is supposed to marry the princess not the dragon?" sylvando asked jokingly. alastair sighs "yeah well this knight didn't ask the dragon to get attached , and besides i haven't agreed to anything." he said calmly. "anyway i don't mean to pry but last i checked there's no mention of the luminary being a giant so why are you?" sylvando asked curiously. "can't say exactly why but we have a theory that it is one of the luminaries powers." serena said honestly. "well whatever the case we need to go deal with the nasty beastie so look lively." sylvando said before skipping to catch up with the prince's group.

The trip through the red stone system only took an hour and that was mostly because of how the monsters took up most of the path needing them to be cleared out. at the end of the tunnel there was a clearing with high stone cliff walls and a sheer drop off on the far edge that was covered in fine desert sands. the prince strutted around since he couldn't see the monster they were after and dragged that it fled before turning to leave since it wasn't here.

However the sand behind the prince began to rise in a large mound before falling away to reveal a massive scorpion looking monster with dark tan carapace pieces and two large bladed pincers as well as a long sharp tail. the monster roared and went to attack the cowering prince with one of its pincers but was stopped by alastair who parried the blow. alastair grunted from the heavy blow but was otherwise unaffected and stood at the ready. the rest of the party went to move in to help but alastair held up his hand to stop them.

"let me take a crack at it first to truly test my limits and then you guys can join in alright?" he asked without looking away from the monster who was eyeing him cautiously. the rest of the party agreed but stood at the ready in case something happened. alastair grinned and flexed his body causing his shirt to rip revealing his upper body in its entirety. sylvando gasped at the extreme musculature and face like back muscles. the slayer seemed to grow unnerved at the strength of alastair since it had never seen a human with such power.

Alastair leaped forward with a swipe of metalbane towards the slayer officially starting this fight. the slayer blocked the sword with its left pincer before stabbing at alastair with the right only to miss as alastair actually pivoted his entire body using metalbane as a fulcrum. the blade sank into the hard carapace of the pincer slightly from the sheer force being driven into it as the right pincer passed under alastairs body. twisting his body midair alastair pulled the blade back sending sparks flying from the friction before flipping onto the left pincer all in one fluid motion.

Some might think this was accomplished with the sword skills but in truth it was actually from the absolute control alastair had over his muscles. alastair had flexed the perfect combination of muscles needed to flip in place while withdrawing the blade at the same time. alastair wasted no time after regaining his footing and swung the blade at the joint that connected the left pincer to the main body. the blade cleaved through the unprotected soft tissues like it was mud severing the pincer entirely. the slayer screamed in agony before leaping back fearfully from the horrifying human in front of it.

Alastair landed on the sand with the sheen of sweat covering his upper body. the rest of the expedition watched in awe as the slayer retreated with every step alastair took. soon the beast was trapped because there was only a steep and long cliff behind it causing it to roar a warning at alastair. this warning was ignored by alastair who started to hop oddly in place just beyond the slayer which confused everyone until they saw the veins on his body bulge. steam began to rise from alastair as his heartrate began to rocket heating up his body so the sweat evaporated far faster.
