With a growing determination, Reve snapped his fingers, and two transparent screens collided with the snake.

*Boom!*

Suddenly, a bright light attracted his eyes from the top of the snake. 

The moment he looked at it, a sheet of stone began growing on his arms. 

Reve hastily closed his eyes and distanced himself from the snake. The sheet of stone regressed until his arm was back to normal.

He sent a loose force barrier at the snake to keep it preoccupied while he analyzed what just happened to him.

'It is those tiny snakes! Petrification! I should have expected this medusa-looking creature to possess something like that.'

With his eyes closed, Reve evaded another attack from the snake but this time, barely. 

His clothes tore apart from the attack and blood seeped out from the wound that it made.

Reve could not fully rely on his senses at this moment. The poison from the snake did something to deter his perfect sensory skills. 

Sometimes, he would receive an excellent interpretation of his surroundings. Yet, in crucial moments, this interpretation would go black leaving him vulnerable to any sudden attack.

Anyway, if he wanted to shield himself from the attack of the medusa's head, he needed to focus on his senses despite their unreliable status right now. 

'I'm used to this fighting style. It's a pity I can't use magic. However, I should be able to go physical now!'

Reve's silhouette disappeared just when the thoughts flashed through his head. A large array of black energy balls blitzed towards him, but he infiltrated its gaps and headed for the snake. 

Getting closer, Reve pulled on his sense of balance and punched the body of the snake. 

His dainty fist was imprinted on its skin. The inside of the snake mushed together and it flew backward like a rocket ball. 

Still, Reve didn't give it any break.

He jumped in the air and landed a kick on its middle section!

*Boom!*

A bright light radiated from its inside as it was about to unleash an energy blast. Reve stared at its face and dug his claws into its intestine. 

He brought out his hands stained with black blood along with a few patches of flesh mushed into his nails. 

'It should be over now, shouldn't it?'

In an instant, the hole that he made closed up, and the snake slammed its tail on him. 

A few seconds later, Reve stood back up from the whole he made on the floor. 

He spat out dirt from his mouth, 'Fucking healing factor. Damn!'

The snake had merged with the darkness so it was hard to find it, but Reve knew it was recuperating. 

Meanwhile, Reve's healing factor would take a while before it fully regenerates his body. '

If this went on at this rate, he would be eaten by this snake. 

'Damn, is this how it feels to face a stubborn foe like myself?'

Reve took a second to appreciate the beauty of excellent healing factors. In the next second, he shamelessly vowed to utterly despise creatures like that. 

Anyway, Reve knew what he had to do. He had to deal a lot of fatal damage to the snake, overwhelming it in such a way that it would basically kill it. 

Last time, he had gone for the heart, but he seemed to have missed it strangely.

Reve's eyes could see the internal structure of any being. He had seen the heart of the snake and attacked it, yet it slipped out of his grip, meaning the snake can shift its heart at a moment's notice. 

He had to target another vital part!

Reve raised a force barrier. Slamming on it was the impatient snake. 

Reve used his other hand to fling another force barrier at it, which sent it away for the meantime. 

Still, with his eyes closed, he released wisps of hot breath from his mouth and calmed his mind.

His breathing merged with the atmosphere and his every minute movement seemed as slow as a tortoise's walk. Yet, he wasn't bothered…..even when the snake dashed at him. 

Suddenly, his aura spilled out and a bluish-green energy escaped in a tiny long stream from his body. They went upwards, forming a magic circle that spawned two other magic circles. 

This constant dance of complex magic circles sparked a tiny white orb into existence. The orb grew from a tiny object, the size of an apple, to the size of a mature watermelon. 

It was then a crack appeared on it and a beautiful flower, with a description similar to the flower of paradise, grew out. The energy radiating from it condensed an ice spear that was as reflective and smooth as the clear blue moon. 

Reve muttered softly, "...[Artic Moon]!"

The ice spear shot in this close region. It blitzed like a dying meteor. Even Reve couldn't see the movement of the ice spear.

Time seemed to slow down. The advancement of the snake, the movement of Reve, everything appeared to pause. Only the ice spear rampantly dashed in the air!

In the blink of an eye, it struck the snake and pierced its head.

An ice sheet got released from the ice spear. The glacial sheet froze the snake until it was fully trapped in a block of ice.

However, in what seemed like the final struggle, a blast radiated from the snake and broke the block of ice, rendering it free. 

Yet, Reve was prepared. 

Beneath the snake swam an inconspicuous magic circle. A thin stream of energy rose up from it and subtly pierced the snake, disregarding its magic-resistant scales. 

The stream of energy came out of the other side of the snake and on its tip was a bud that blossomed instantly into a fine flower. If the flower of [Artic Moon] and [Ice Fantasy] was that of paradise, this one could be aligned to the frigid hell plants. 

Every part of the flower was crystalline, thorny, and didn't seem real. Looking at it, one would feel like it break upon touch, but that was far from the case!

The moment the flower widened, the entire tunnel became akin to the northern region and when Reve blinked his eyes, the snake whitened!
