Chapter 272: Ch 275: A Boss with Two Stages
The attack Rein ended up preparing was mainly an ice element based attack but it was also getting a boost from his fire element. He also used his concept of cold to boost the power of the ice. With that he created a small ball of ice to throw it toward the tree. This ball might look small but inside it Rein had concentrated a vast amount of frost energy which was forcefully contented inside this ball area.
Rein was planning to destabilize that force by his fire element which would then create a large explosion. As the area of the explosion would be limited, the power generated by it would be massive. Rein was planning to destroy the plant horizontally instead of vertically as that way he needed to cover less area.
So after finding a perfect chance, he launched that small ball directly at the trunk of the tree where a weak point was present. Then Rein teleported out of the area to create some distance as he did not want to get caught in his own attack.
As soon as Rein moved away, a massive explosion sounded and the whole area got filled with blue mist and ice. The power of the explosion was so strong that even the super hot temperature of this whole area went down by a few degrees. Rein looked toward the centre of the explosion to see the condition of the tree.
After the mist cleared away, Rein was finally able to see the condition of the tree. It was broken through the middle and the large upper half of the tree was continuously falling toward the ground. If this continued, this massive tree would soon fall.
But before Rein could become happy, suddenly the tree started to burn with a golden fire, Rein did not find this to be a good thing and he started to prepare for another powerful attack. He was guessing that this fire was going to burn the tree but that did not happen. Inserted in a very short amount of time, this fire ended up burning the whole tree and only a small black, completely burnt seed was left on the location where the tree previously was.
Rein was feeling that this black seed was extremely powerful. So he did not waste his time and threw an attack toward the little seed. The attack he used was not the powerful attack he was preparing but it was a probing attack which was also not weak.
But before his attack could reach the seed, suddenly it cracked and flames poured out from it. This flame was easily able to block Rein's probing attack and more and more cracks started appearing on the seed.
Then with a final burst of flame, the whole seed shattered and a giant bird covered in flame came out of it. So it turned out that this black seed was not really a seed but an egg.
Rein felt that this bird was even more troublesome than the tree. That was because the tree at least was not able to move or dodge his attacks. This bird definitely had weaker defense than the tree but if Rein could not hit it at all, then that was not a disadvantage at all.
Rein immediately became cautious and started to run toward the bird. From his eye of Truth he was able to judge that, this bird had an extremely powerful area of effect attacks. So if Rein did not get close to it, this bird could kill him by just throwing destructive attacks toward him again and again.
That was the reason why Rein wanted to fight this bird in close quarters combat. But the more he got closer to the bird while dodging all the flaming attacks it was throwing toward him, the more hot he started to feel. It looked like this bird had a passive ability that was creating a super hot domain around it.
So Rein used his cool concept to get rid of the heat around him and also created two swords made out of ice. Rein was at his strongest with swords with him and that had just changed here in this world. While dual wielding two swords, Rein was able to be at his strongest. Normally he would use a fire sword and an ice sword to dual wield. But as this bird monster had high resistance to fire, he decided to use ice swords for both of his hands.
He created platforms made of fire in the air and even used them as thrusters to increase his speed. But to attack the bird he always used his ice. Not only the ice swords but also regular ice attacks. As a user of fire, Rein also had a high resistance to it, so for the time being the battle was even.
The tree had a lot of attacks so it was difficult to dodge. But as the attacks were weak, Rein was not too worried if he did not manage to dodge a few attacks. But against the bird, he needed to use his full concentration all the time.
But slowly but surely, Rein was able to bring the bird in an ideal position. Then suddenly Rein unleashed the previous super powerful attack that was responsible for defeating the tree. Obviously the bird tried to dodge but Rein had already trapped it and himself inside a cage made of ice so it was unable to dodge.
As the attacking ice belonged to him and due to his symbol and perfect body, Rein also had a high resistance to ice. For all these reasons, even though Rein would also be injured by this attack, he decided to use himself as a bait to trap this fire bird monster. He was hoping that he would be able to endure this attack while the fire bird would not be able to.
Just like that, another large icy explosion happened in the sky. Then two figures fell out of the mist cloud that was created from it. Obviously it was Rein and the fire bird. Both of them looked to be badly injured and on the verge of death. But after some time, the small figure managed to stand up while the larger figure started to dissipate into thin air.
Rein had managed to win this fight by surviving his icy explosion better than the fire bird. This monster was really strong and Rein was very surprised by how many insanely powerful monsters this Desolate Plains of Gahana danger zone had managed to create. That was really something super impressive.

Another gate had already appeared before him and Rein had also gotten a message that told him that the next test was also going to be the last. After that finally Rein would be able to ask the will of the Desolate Plains of Gahana the questions that he had. Rein was looking forward to it.
Rein looked badly injured but all the injuries that he had suffered were flesh wounds. His perfect body was able to heal in a short amount of time. So after resting for a little bit, Rein entered the final gate with confident steps.
