Shin knew that the Boar King was quite strong. He came to this realization after taking a look at his status.

-< cannot be shown due to the host's low level >-

Although Avan's speed was quite less, his other stats were higher than normal. Of course, they were still less than Blanca's, but it was definitely more than Shin's.

Shin realized that his attack stats were too low to counter the mega attack that the boar launched.

Therefore, he used two thousand of the stat points on the attack stats. Thanks to that, the attack power of all the skills increased drastically.

Also, when he used the skill Rage, the already increased stats ended up getting doubled. Thanks to that, his attack power was 6016.

This was a little higher than that of Avan. Yes, Shin calculated all this instantly because no matter what happened, he wanted to eradicate the Boar King.

Well, he could have used the skill, Aero Slash. However, he knew that the skill would end up slashing the sphere instead of stopping. With the sphere's momentum, both the sliced halves would still proceed to move towards Shin and might end up colliding.

Basically, Aero slash was no good. Due to that, Shin recalled all the skills that he had only to conclude that there were no good skills to counter the Boar King's attack.

Therefore, he ended up using one of Deoras' attacks. Yes, he knew that he could use his subordinates' attacks, and after recalling that, he asked the system to show a suitable skill from Deoras to counter Avan's attack.

*Ding*

[ The skill Shadow Blast from Deoras is found to be suitable ]

Right after this text, he used the skill.

A dark sphere appeared in his mouth which he soon launched.

The sphere that was formed by Shin was as big as Avan's.

Considering the fact that Shin's attack power and MP was more than Avan right now, it was not too hard to judge who was going to win.

However, things didn't go as planned.

Yes, when both the sphere collided, the shock wave produced from the attack blew away almost all of the boars.

Although it was not fatal, all the boars were hurt a bit. Since Shin was lighter than most of them, he was the first one to get blown away. And because of his low intelligence stat right now, he could hardly think of a way to prevent himself from getting blown away.

In contrast to that, Blanca and Avan were huge. Although Blanca wasn't as big as Avan, he was quite heavy and the shock wave didn't blow him away. Avan was the heaviest there, so the shockwave just startled him and did nothing more.

*Boom*

Since Shin's attack power exceeded only by a little, both of the spheres ended up nullifying each other.

A few seconds after the loud explosion that occurred due to the collision and nullification, Avan tried to glare at Shin. But Shin was no longer present at the place.

Yes, he was blown away after all.

A huge crater was formed due to the explosion and some pebbles had blown away. Avan was definitely shocked by this, but what he was much more shocked with was that Shin was now fatally injured.

Well, the same applied to him.

Since Shin ended up getting blown away, he was saved from the explosion. However, he ended up falling on a broken branch of a tree that had a sharp end like a knife. It ended up piercing his abdomen.

As for Avan, he was bleeding a lot too because of the explosion.

Blanca was affected a little as well but not as much as Avan. Other Shadow Wolves were fine because they turned themselves into shadows after regaining a bit of MP to get away from the explosion. Since they focused on this, they failed to protect Shin.

*cough*

Just because his defense was high due to the skill Rage and because Aura Domain was activated as well, the damage was relatively less. Some of his organs, which would have been otherwise been ripped off, were fine.

The timer for the rage skill is five minutes. Within this period of five minutes, Shin wouldn't be able to think like how he usually does. Yes, even after the intelligence was halved, it was almost at the same level as Avan. However, being halved suddenly and having the same intelligence all along is two different things.

Thus, it was particularly hard for Shin.

*Ding*

[ You have used the skill Heal ]

Having low intelligence doesn't mean he cannot think.

He activated the skill to keep his HP in check and if possible, completely heal.

However, Avan wasn't going to wait for Shin to get completely healed.

He had already felt his terrifying powers so he was sure that if Shin were to recover, then it would be trouble for him.

"What are you doing!?"

"Go kill him!"

"Kill him before he recovers!", Avan shouted.

The boars looked at Avan and then turned their gazes towards Shin, whose abdomen had been impaled.

Even if they weren't as intelligent as Avan, they could instantly realize whose side they were to take.

Yes, while Avan tried to kill them along with everyone else after launching a lethal attack, it was Shin who protected them. Even if it was unintentional and even if it was to protect himself, Shin did save all their lives.

Without wasting a single second, all the boars stood up and faced Shin.

And now, when Shin looked at them, he was sure that they would end up destroying him completely,

'Ah, shit…'

'If all those boars attack me, then I'm as good as dead…'
