I Was a Loner, but My Class Got Summoned to Another World…-Chapter 163: Test for the Taming Hero
"Now then, let’s see, hero of taming. I have brought my strongest soldier. If you beat him, I will leave for today. If not, I don’t see a point in leaving you alive or allowing your little town to grow further. I have a few spies there already, ready to cause chaos. So try hard, hero. You have one chance. I will give you time though. Bring your three strongest monsters. I know that, as a hero of taming, you are not strong without them."
The demon Zaryx then stomped on the floor, making a mass of flesh form into something he could sit on while taking a piece out of it to chew.
Logan could not stand watching the disgusting scene as blood and innards were being eaten as if they were pastries. He quickly called up Scorch, Serana, and Voltar, knowing that if power was necessary, the three would be the best for now.
Scorch had to be called by Zephyr, as the other two were already present on the battlefield.
Serana got closer, wanting an explanation of the upcoming tactics.

"We will just go all out. As far as tactics go, you will be in charge of helping Voltar, while I will create openings with Scorch. We don’t know what we will be facing yet, so keep an eye on ambushes," Logan communicated while watching the demon before him show a bloodied smile.
The others who were in the air landed, while the Eagles and Aurolious Fowls were told to be on standby.
Logan got out crystals to heal himself and recover his mana, along with Kryst, who stood next to him casting recovery magic.
Lisa landed next to him, wondering why she wasn’t asked to join.
"We don’t know what will happen, Lisa. If possible, go back to town and help them in case they decide to attack. I will handle things here now that we have a decent force," Logan suggested.
"Fine, but don’t be reckless. I know Kryst can heal you, but if you die…" Lisa trailed off, trying not to think of the worst possible outcome.
"Don’t worry, I have my own ways to keep myself safe," Logan said, smiling and patting the back of the girl who hesitated to go back.
"Now then, everyone get ready. Scorch is almost here," Logan announced, seeing his red dinosaur approaching from afar, running with his pack.
As soon as everyone was ready, the demon got up, dusted himself off, and spoke.
"I guess you are ready. If not, too bad. I am getting bored. Now then, you will be fighting… Regar! Where are you?" Zaryx yelled out in an annoyed tone.
As soon as he said those words, a large figure appeared behind him.
"Did I not tell you to warp in front of me? How will I know if you came if you’re behind me! Now you will fight that kid. Go all out. You kill or die, understand?" Zaryx said with a cold tone towards his follower.
"Understood," said a three-meter-tall demon, his eyes devoid of emotion. His flat, monotone voice and stoic expression revealed no hint of feelings.
Logan felt a shiver as the being took a step forward.
"Well, don’t just stand there, start," Zaryx commanded, annoyed as if he was the one orchestrating everything.
Seeing that he could not get out of this, Logan began casting his strongest shield spells. Serana stayed near as Voltar readied his stance.
Scorch stood behind them, ready to jump in but ultimately waited for the demon to get close.
Seeing the large demon warp to them in a matter of seconds, the group could only take cover as he swung his large hammer-like hands down towards Logan.
Voltar used his speed to intercept, while Scorch followed up with a headbash.
Each attack was blocked by an arm, which gave Serana enough time to use her claws to scratch the giant’s leg. The wound was light, as the demon tensed its muscles to prevent damage.
Logan, on the other hand, used Silis’s Earth Burst to strengthen his knuckles covered in stone as he blasted forth towards the enemy’s torso.
It felt like hitting a concrete wall as Logan’s fist met the large demon. He could only use Amber Regeneration to recover the part of his fist that was covered, and Lisa’s healing light for his own skin that had begun bleeding.
The others seemed fine, especially Voltar, who could not be touched as his speed was as quick as his element. He charged electricity through his strikes, making even the demon’s hand give out for a few seconds as it became stunned.
Scorch, on the other hand, was repelled with a punch. His large body only shuddered slightly, but he quickly recovered and infused fire into his tail for the next strike.
"Everyone, get back!" Logan ordered using his mind link. He knew Scorch was getting ready to use his tail as a whip, as lava began to drip onto the floor.
Voltar took the chance to use an Electromagnetic Pulse to keep the demon in place while Logan cast Electro Web and Regal’s Midnight Web to surround the demon.
Regar the demon, on the other hand, just looked at the webs and electrical pulse that kept his body from moving and stomped the ground hard. Logan did not know what it was doing until he felt a pulse of mana that disrupted all the magic around him.
The large demon then rushed forward toward Scorch, using his large knee to hit the red dinosaur on its chest, causing the buildup of energy in its tail to flail wildly. Explore more stories with novelbuddy
Everyone had to move to avoid friendly fire. Logan tried checking if he could use magic, only to see that the mana-disrupting pulses kept coming with each stomp the giant took.
"Alright, two can play this game." Logan used his new mushroom giant’s Mana Surge to absorb the disruptive mana into his body and Mystic Shield to turn the excessive mana into shields for his comrades. Each blow the giant demon landed was repelled by his own mana, giving Scorch the time to retaliate now that his anger was at its peak.
