Hero From The Dark Dimension
Chapter 5: Exit Part 3

An upset encompassed his heart and every step of his foot. Along the path he traveled left a striking mark on the ground. The sword that accompanied him for so many years had disappeared a few minutes ago. Darius was furious, it was the sword King Reivan gave him.

There had been many battles that he had fought with the sword and thanks to the sword Darius also managed to bring many victories for the kingdom of Ezius as well as for the Invandara. What a pesky fate, losing an item that was very valuable to him.

"Fucking monster!, he could've made me lose my sword." Darius's vexation grew bigger. Some trees he hit until they were destroyed. A few minutes ago, a four-armed monster attacked him on the way. The starving monster attacked blindly. Darius tried to repel the attack, but his sword was thrown down because of a very strong attack.

He defeated the monster with his bare hands. But now he was confused looking for his sword. Darius did not know where his sword was going. He also regretted being less alert.

"You're so sloppy." Pamella's voice suddenly appeared. "Why can you be so careless like this? until you lose your weapon."

"How did you know I lost my sword? can you see me from there?" ask Darius. To calm himself down, he sat leaning against a tree nearby. Darius patted his forehead, lamenting the misfortune that befell him.

"Thanks to the return of one of my cores, a little bit of my ability came back. Now I can not only talk to you telepathically, but also see you through the reflector mirror." Detailed answers from Pamella.

"Are you now unable to do anything with the loss of the sword?" ask Pamella. Darius had repeatedly explained to him that Darius was not a knight with only one talent. Without a sword, he could fight. What makes Darius nervous is that if the sword can not be found again, because it is a valuable item given by the king.

"I'm so careless." Darius was really upset. If only he had been better prepared a few minutes ago. This incident will definitely not happen. Darius took a deep breath and tried to calm his mind.

"I must be calm, Your Majesty once said that the sword was destined for me. If the sword is destined for me, it will come back to me. I'm sure of you." This knight established himself and threw away worries. He held firm the belief that he would get his sword back.

"I'd better keep going and get this thing done. Then I'll find my sword." Darius continued his journey. Right now, he was in a forest a bit away from the tower. Darius had just discovered that there was a dense forest in this dimension.

"The water source here is dirty. But all the plants here can grow big." murmured Darius. As Darius said, there is no clean water source in this dimension. In the dark dimension there is only one source of water whose water quality is far from drinkable. The source of the water was a black river.

As the name implies, the river water is black and smells bad. Even so, the monsters liked it, they often drank there. Because of the black color of the water like ink and its pungent smell, Darius prefers to drink the juice of wild plants that taste a bit compared to drinking the river water.

The water, which flows underground, provides a water supply for all plants in the dark dimension. More precisely for all abnormal plants. Such water would only make normal plants wither.

The whole plant here is big. Not a few plants in this place that can move and prey on everything that approaches it. One of them is a living plant that Darius once defeated when only five days trapped in this dimension. Part of the plant he uses, the wood as firewood and the leaves as a container to accommodate the essence of wild plants that he usually drinks.

"Wait a minute..." Darius stopped his steps. A tremor shook the place where Darius stood. The increasingly violent tremors upset Darius' balance until he was difficult to stand.

Is this just an ordinary earthquake? just this time Darius felt an earthquake this strong. According to him, this is not an ordinary earthquake, the tremors seemed to move from one place to another. It was like something was moving from the ground.

"Be careful, I feel my core move from the ground." Pamella's words gave a hint. Darius was trying to balance himself amidst the intense tremors that shook the ground. The tremors were easing up even more, it seemed that the monsters moving within the ground had switched to another place. Although it was not too pronounced, Darius could still sense where the tremors were going.

The tremor leads to a black river. There was a rumbling sound from the direction of the river, followed by an explosion that made river water gush into the sky. A three-headed Hydra emerged from within the river. This one is much bigger than the Hydra that Darius used to face.

"Where exactly is the core of your body?" ask Darius. Right now he was still watching the monster from a distance. The giant hydra was seen rampaging in the river area.

"God..." Pamella was shocked by something.

"What's wrong? why do you sound like someone who's been seeing ghosts?" Darius responded to Pamella, who sounded surprised. What surprised Pamella?.

"The monster has all three of my core." As Pamella said. It will be harder to deal with. That Hydra had all three of Pamella's cores left, its power no longer needed to be asked. Pamella told Darius to step down temporarily, this is too dangerous. But for Darius this was a great opportunity to complete his task and make his way home.

"This means I only need to defeat that monster, right? that way I'll instantly get those three cores. I won't waste this opportunity." that's Darius' reply. Upon hearing this, Pamella began to think of Darius as a madman. He wanted to fight a monster that had three cores in its body What a reckless decision.

"You won't be able to deal with it Back off, let's think of another way" Pamella said. Darius ignored him completely.

"We won't know before we try" replied Darius, then he approached the rampaging Hydra monster. Pamella was really upset with Darius who did not want to listen to her reprimand.

If Darius were to be killed, then he would never be able to achieve his perfect form. He did nothing because his form was still imperfect, he could only watch the reckless actions of Darius from the reflector mirror.

"Bas on crazy humans!" Jerking hard Pamella. Before this Darius had already made a crazy decision by holding back the meteor that the Dark Lord had dropped, it was as reckless as his current actions.

Without a weapon, Darius advanced before the great Hydra. With one jump and one blow, one of the seven horns on Hydra's head managed to break.

His communication with Pamella was suddenly interrupted. This is unnatural. The Hydra Monster regenerated its broken horn. In an instant, his horns returned to how they had been. His rapid regeneration ability would be extremely troublesome.

Darius repeatedly wounded the monster. But his super-fast regeneration ability sucks. Darius' attack seemed meaningless. Unceasingly, Darius continued to attack the monster at high speed. He managed to destroy one of the three monster heads, but his shattered head instead regenerated and split into two.

The number of monster heads kept growing as Darius constantly smashed his head. One head he managed to destroy, but instead grew two heads that replaced the position of the head that had been destroyed. The monster's body was also getting hard.

The monster that originally had only three heads, now had ten heads. The monster's body regeneration was also accelerating. It was now impossible for Darius to give any meaningful injury to the monster.

"But, his body continues to regenerate and his head continues to grow. What am I supposed to do?" The situation is getting more difficult. Darius was running out of energy.

"Eh!, don't I have the ability to absorb the power of other beings? why don't I use it?" Darius realized his stupidity. Unthinkable of him about it.

"Don't Darius!" Pamella's shout made this knight shocked. Pamella is back in touch.

"Although you have the power to absorb, but you can't necessarily accommodate and adapt the energy of the power that enters your body. If you can't do all that, then your life's in danger." A strong warning from Pamella. Not long ago Darius gained this power and Darius himself did not understand very well how to use it.

"Just use my powers that you just absorbed. Focus yourself, feel the burning heat energy that flows within you and then squeeze that heat energy in the form of an attack. You can do it." Quite helpful instructions from the Goddess whose form is not yet perfect. Based on what Pamella said, with a high concentration Darius began to focus.

The heat energy he felt. The heat was central to his fist, then he threw a fist accompanied by a huge fire vortex. His fist managed to scorch all of Hydra's heads. Darius was interested in that ability.

"Does this mean I've won?" Darius asked with a gaping mouth.

"Yet, stupid!" Jerking hard Pamella. The Hydra Monster regenerated. All the heads of the monsters returned intact and grew. Unexpectedly, this monster was still alive after receiving a fatal attack from Darius.

Monster Hydra issued electrical bombs (Electric bombs) in large numbers and sizes that are not large. A black aura enveloped his entire body. There appeared crystals that also coated all of these large monsters. It seemed that this monster was becoming more and more wary of Darius, he coated his body with defense.

Suddenly a chunk of crystal appeared and restrained Darius' feet. This crystal was similar to the crystal that coated the Hydra's body. It turns out that Hydra is not only able to use crystals as a defense, but he can also use them for things like this. So hard was this crystal, that Darius was unable to destroy it.

"GRAAA!!!" Auman Hydra.

Hydra launched all the electrical bomb balls that he was ejecting towards Darius. This tough knight withstood the sting and heavy electrical bomb that hit him. The electric shock weakened Darius's power. Plus a burst of poison from Hydra that makes the burden increase.

He was trying to use the absorption power he had. But to absorb this much energy, it takes time. Plus, Hydra didn't give him a chance to absorb. Hydra continued to spit poison at him, he received an attack while he was resisting the attack. This situation is urgent.

The wounds Darius received were already quite severe. His body had already begun to weaken due to the poison spewed by the monster. Electrical bombs have failed he's been able to withstand. A violent electrical explosion sent the body of this young knight slamming. Blood flowed out from the hands and head of Darius.

His looks are starting to fade. The dizziness and pain from the explosion made everything he saw feel swirling. His steps also staggered. Under such circumstances, Hydra still attacked him with an electrical explosion. The wounds suffered by Darius grew worse.

"Retreat!, If you keep doing this, you'll die!. I told you to go back to the tower, why don't you listen to me?!" Jerking hard Pamella. He was worried that Darius would die here. He did not want the opportunity to get his perfect form gone. Darius is the only person who can make his wish come true.

Darius rose from the fall and immediately restrained the electrical bomb that Hydra launched towards him. Both of his arm bones began to crack as it was not strong enough to withstand the weight of the attack. Darius was already at the end of his ability limit. He didn't want to die here and he couldn't back down from this fight either. There was no other way for him than to win or die.

"I don't regret the decision I made. I won't back down from this fight and I won't die in a place like this!" Confidence and a burning spirit burned the knight's soul within Darius. His strength suddenly increased drastically. All the attacks launched by Hydra he managed to absorb in one blink of an eye.

Pamella who witnessed that was silent. Her pretty eyes were wide open because of the event she had just seen.

"Impossible!, there was no way a human could absorb such a great power in such a short period of time. Who are you, Darius?" Pamella really wants to know. Meanwhile, the knight was ready to strike back. With the power he had absorbed, Darius was able to eject the exact same electrical bomb that Hydra had ejected.

In fact, he can multiply the power of his electrical bomb to exceed the power of the electrical bomb previously issued by Hydra. The flame of the knight's soul burning within Darius was ready to subvert his opponent.

"It's my turn to attack. Prepare to be destroyed, snake of rice!" grunt loudly Darius.

Seriate....
