In Alex''s first move, he wanted to see how much damage he could deal with a full power throw and the results were as expected.

''Of course, A-tier void creatures don''t die that easily.''

Instantly arriving before the growling creature, Alex attempted to execute a flurry of fast-paced sword cuts all over the creature''s body, starting from the head to the tail.

''Hm?''

Out of nowhere, the void creature''s tail appeared before Alex. It was incredibly fast and if Alex had not had incredible reflexes, he would have been swatted away like the ant he looked like.

Alex acted fast, broke his momentum and positioned his sword vertically over his hand. There was no room for dodging the tail sweep as it was as large as a small continent.

*BANG!*

Even with a weapon forged from the light element, the hit resounded like two metallic materials clashing.

The shockwaves from the impact cracked space as Alex was sent flying through space almost at light speeds.

*BOOOOM!*

He collided with one of the planet''s debris as it shattered on impact. But the momentum was too powerful; Alex continued to fly through the void until he managed to regain himself.

From one attack, he had travelled hundreds of millions of kilometres in an instant.

His armour shattered under the power of the attack as it returned to its liquidated state and tried to repair itself.

''Damn! My arms are trembling!''

He felt an attractive force towards the creature''s energies but ignored it for now. He didn''t have the time to ponder on whys.

Alex gazed at the void creature that looked at him with vengeance, and its maws continued to spew extremely high-temperature flames.

Surprisingly, his conjured weapons managed to hold with just a few cracks. Then the creature moved against and Alex followed suit.

Sensing the void energy in the core, his void core reacted as it began to spin faster, desiring to absorb the energy, adding to the already strange calling sensation.

''Come down, buddy. You''ll get the core soon enough.''

Right now, he wanted to introspect on what went on and the things he noticed during the fight. He looked around for any surrounding debris but found nothing for millions of miles.

Finding nothing, he turned to the void creature and flew over to it. The creature was as large as a moon, it was more than perfect to serve as his base since it destroyed the planet.

The void aura would have normally deterred hunters from doing such a thing, but to Alex, it was just another dead creature.

He placed the core beside him as his mind went through the short but intense fight.

What he had done was something Class A hunters would have to put in a lot of effort to do or what a single S-tier hunter could.

''Though I was forced to push myself in the fight, I felt my strength increase as I pushed myself. It seems the mana vortexes aren''t just for passive absorption of energy.

''Then there was the fact that the creature fell too quickly. If my guess is right, it had something to do with void energy instead of mana.''

Alex was not entirely sure, but he believed void energy was better suited to dealing with the void creatures.

That may have been the reason behind the creature falling so fast.

Of course, he could be wrong, but he doubted it. Gazing at the core, Alex felt the swirling energies within it call to him.

''This is different from just wanting to absorb the lingering void energy...'' He narrowed his eyes at the roundish object before placing it before him.

He looked around to see if there were any void creatures that may have been drawn to the commotion but found nothing in sight.

When he first arrived here, he spotted some void creatures in the far-off distance, but it seemed they moved away or died from the impact of the fight.

"Let''s see what this feeling is telling me..."

He closed his eyes and then directed his void core to absorb the core''s energy. However, to be on the safer side, he still spread his divine sense around him.
