"That's impossible! It's water, can't you see it?!!" from the side, Angelica couldn't help but disagree with him.

"Keep walking," William knew that trying to explain the obvious to her was futile. She said it herself; no one knew the true secrets of this place.

It did indeed look like water, but how this water acted was something that got no other explanation but being a monster.

"A monster who has part of its body take the form of normal water is quite cunning…" he muttered while watching that bulk of water rising up to form some sort of a mushroom shaped solid creature. This creature clashed fiercely against the fire pillars, and even with its surface looking like water, it couldn't stop the fire and instead got lots of damage.

William saw globules of water break apart from this creature and fall to the ground, ending up splashing on the ice and turning into a small lump of ice.

He didn't know if ice in the entire region came from dead creatures like these or not. But he was sure of one thing, this monster wasn't immune to fire, could be damaged. And that meant it could be killed.

"Keep walking, and don't stop or turn to help me," William suddenly stopped walking forward, turned around and started to dash towards that creature.

"Wait…" Angelica instantly panicked when she saw him do this. She imagined the worst and didn't get what William could see using his spirit sense.

This monster's deadliest weapon was the ice and water trick. They weren't walking over a lake, but on the back of this monster, or an army of them.

The moment he dashed forward using his technique, stacking attacks over his weapons and tails, the ice he passed over started to crack. He didn't care, as he got the right way to handle these monsters.

"I'll use my grenades to lure it out, even using my explosive arrows as well… As for taking these monsters down, it's up to me and my techniques…"

William could already see that creature or monster getting harmed by his pillars of fire, but it wasn't enough to take it down. So, he decided to just use his grenades and explosive arrows to force these creatures out of the ice, then he'd deal with them using his technique.

He did so as he didn't know if this lump of water-like substance was the entire monster or just a piece of it. The worst-case scenario would be if the entire region was on the back of a single and colossal monster.

If so, then he'd have to throw away the idea of fighting against this monster, change his strategy, and look directly for a way out.

*Boom!*

He kept all these thoughts aside, dashed and stacked his attacks before landing fiercely over the monster. During which, he already released lots of explosive arrows, ending up exploding lots of the holes that appeared along the paths he crossed using his dashing technique.

In Angelica's eyes, he was doing something insane! He flashed and kept moving fast, despite his giant body. Anywhere he passed over, holes appeared in the next few seconds without any warning.

This happened all the time, without any cracks appearing, without him stepping on the ice except when he ended a dash and started another one.

As he kept flashing around, his tails started to shine, alongside the weapons held by the three tails. He also got a bow and lots of arrows out, threw them to land and explode over the holes he left behind.

The world shook and trembled with lots of fierce chorus of explosions that seemed to go on for a long time. And when his arrows exploded, the water surface that appeared below the cracked ice started to tremble and then rise, forming a lump that wasn't different from the one that appeared before.

Right now, the world behind William was filled with lots of explosions, fire, and weird water shaped extensions that rose high in the air.

From far, she thought as if she was watching seeds sprouting out and growing stumps, blue and not green. In the middle of all this, William was acting as if he was dancing, and then he landed at the first lump that appeared before.

The pillars of fire coming out from his grenades were much fiercer and lasted longer than the fire clouds that came out from the explosive arrows. But both were weak against the water lumps.

Yet that all changed the moment William landed his sixty something stacked attacks over the first water lump. His attack landed and released a fierce gale of wind, followed by a massive explosion and a loud rumbling noise.

That wasn't on par with the fierce shaking that happened after the hit, alongside a clear deformation of the water lump. The attack William released was enough to leave behind tens of metres, even up to a hundred metres depth hole on the ground. But against this water lump, it felt like it caused fierce waves that messed with the water body.

"Again!" William saw lots of large globules falling off and turning to ice. But the monster still had more than half of its body intact. It was suffering, showing waves and turbulence along its surface, not enough to break it apart as William desired.

So he had to move again, flash around, before finally releasing another hit. During which he kept releasing more explosive arrows towards other water lumps, which were now in hundreds!

It was something unbelievable for Angelica, yet she saw how William managed to tear down the water lump with his second attack. The moment it landed, the water shaped monster body crashed down and turned into a pile of ice.

"This… Is it a core?!" William noticed something shiny in the middle of the ice pile that was left behind from that water lump. When he grabbed it, he saw it wasn't a regular shaped monster core, not in the shape of a perfect sphere like how monster cores looked like.
