Eldritch Creature's Guide



Afterward, he took out a small Steel Emblem for the Steel Trial from his Dimensional storage before he looked at Yvraine.

"Wait for me here, I will be undergoing two trials, so I would suggest making yourself comfortable with some nice book."

Samiel said as she scoffed at him, but nevertheless, she nodded her head in agreement and took out some Grimoire for her to study while Samiel entered the Tomb, which already recognized his fake aura signature as the potential inheritor of the Last Human King and allowed him to enter the premises.

"Just don't take too long... I already want to go to the Zephystrand so we can have a nice time for ourselves."

He heard Yvraine said as he promised her internally that he would try to complete the Trials as fast as possible... maybe he would also get some nice reward at a later date from her...

Samiel went to the Tomb of the Last Human King; as he went to the door which were for the Steel-Tier and pressed the Embled for the Steel-Tier to the doors and entered the area for the Steel-Tier Trial as he saw the notifications of the Tower's System.

[Chains Quest Inheritance of The Last Human King - Steel Trial.]

[Steel-Tier Trial of the Inheritance of The Last Human King has been initiated.]

[Steel-Tier Trial: Clear out the Steel Gatekeepers.]

Samiel soon read over the notifications from the Tower's System and looked all around the huge arena-like room with several huge steel knights that were positioned around the room.

All of them looked like armored knights, fully equipped with protective gear, weapons, and other accouterments of battle.

When Samiel finished reading the notifications, suddenly all of them came to life, gripped their enormous weapons and got into a battle stance.

"Naturally, this wouldn't be that easy..."

He muttered because he sensed one not-that-nice thing about the Steel Guardians... even though they were technically Steel-Tier in terms of Mana Capacity, their physical power should be above Bronze-Tier Professionals and they were also coated with a thin layer of Dimeritium which was infused in their construction.

Basically, giving them some sort of Magic Resistance which complicated the whole thing because Samiel was primarily a Magic Caster and not a close combatant.

Even though he was pretty skilled with a trident, unfortunately, it was not his main expertise and against a truly dedicated foe to his craft, he would lose without magic.

He still conjured a trident and looked at the tens of Steel Knight Constructs warily before the first one attacked him with his enormous two-handed sword, forcing Samiel to dodge backward.

The instincts of the Steel Knight Constructs were good if someone could even call it instincts, as they were not living golems, but whatever.

Samiel then started freezing the legs of the first Steel Knight Construct that attacked him before he teleported in front of the Steel Knight Construct and smashed the ice trident that he was holding against the Steel Knight Construct, shattering it into countless pieces.

'Hmm... physical strength is good, magic resistance is relatively strong, but it could still be bypassed by freezing the legs of the Steel Knight Constructs for a brief period of time. Fortunately, my physical strength is enough to destroy them in one hand...'

Samiel analyzed the situation with the Steel Knight Constructs as he looked at the half-destroyed ice trident before he conjured another one through the Winter Ruler.

When the new ice trident was created, Samiel was attacked by four Steel Knight Constructs at the same time because all of them were already activated and were combat-ready.

Samiel kept on dodging the incoming strikes of the Steel Knigth Constructs that were ferociously attacking him one after another, forcing Samiel to train more on his footwork in this combat.

He didn't wish to be hit by the enormous weapons of the Steel Knight Constructs because he didn't wish to be cleaved in half.

Even though he seriously doubted it would happen if he were to be hit by the weapons, he would still be injured enough to hinder his movements.

'There are twenty-four enemies remaining after I killed the first Steel Knight Constructs.'

Samiel has already begun drafting the plans for dealing with the Steel Knight Constructs; magic was primarily out of the question for now because the only Magic Spell he could use now would be that of the Void Magic.

Unfortunately, those required some time chanting and in the situation he was right now, that was night impossible because he was too focused on dodging the attacks.

So, he needed to do make an opening for him to lower their numbers even further.

Samiel used Architect's advanced calculations to predict the incoming attacks of the Steel Knigth Constructs in real-time.

One of the advantages that he had against the enemies like these Steel Knigth Constructs was that, as they were just golems with low intelligence and wisdom, they were extremely predictable.

Against enemies like this, he could predict their movements countless steps ahead of them.

Not even two seconds later, a sliver of opportunity appeared as he hacked his ice trident against the chest of the Steel Knight Construct, piercing through the golem, and destroying it in one hit.

'That's 23...'

He started mentally counting as he performed a flip backward, landing behind the Steel Knight Construct who was behind him, hitting him with his ice trident at his head, destroying the Steel Knight Construct's head... with this, another was down.

This time the Ice Tridnet managed to survive the hit because Samiel was constantly using the Winter Ruler to strengthen the ice construct weapon.

At the same time, he heard several notifications from the Akashic Records as the proficiency with the Level 3 Ultimate Ability Winter Ruler was increasing with each passing second.

[Proficiency with the Level 3 Ultimate Ability Winter Ruler has been increased by 1%.]

[Proficiency with the Level 3 Ultimate Ability Winter Ruler has been increased by 1%.]

[Proficiency with the Level 3 Ultimate Ability Winter Ruler has been increased by 1%.]

Growth of 3% for the Ultimate Ability during one fight was a good thing; he had already reached the proficiency of 45% with the Winter Ruler.

When he finished another of the Steel Knight Constructs, Samiel jumped high in the air before he used his Mana Technique, Nuclear Void Mana Control Method, to flash being the line of the Steel Knight Constructs, attacking the one who was the last one.
