‘Fucking idiots,’ cursed Rhaek inside its mind, seeing how the bastards were fighting. It had told them to kill the human in the first second, but here, the bastards are playing around.
They were making the same mistake it had made. If it had not taken the humans lightly, it would have won the war and not bore this shame.
Still, it is quite shocking the power humans have burst out with; if they had used this power against it earlier, it wouldn’t have lasted even seconds.
It is glad they did not; nothing is more important than its life.
They are burning themselves, and it has given them incredible power; It is just glad being far away right now; it did not want anywhere near the battle.
If it were up to it, it would have escaped, but doing that would be a bad choice. The being will forgive it once but will not do it a second time.
Hun!
It was just thinking that when suddenly it had sensed the movement behind it. Only to see the monster of Grimm attacking it.
Immediately, its aura blasted to full power, and golden claws appeared in its hand.
It had seen the monsters kill the Grimms before, and while it was confident it would be fine, it did not want to take the risk.
…
CLANNNNG!
Another attack landed on my sword, and I blasted back like a rocket, vomiting, while the Grimm came walking toward me, each of its steps crossing miles before appearing in front of me and attacking.
p、A,nd A-n、o、ve,1
Hun!
It was just attacking when it stopped and looked at Rhaek, which was moving its claw toward Nero, who had attacked it.
“Aren’t you going to help your ancestor?” I asked, which surprised it, but soon it shook its beast.
“If it could not even kill a little beast, then it has no reason to be alive, much less have me as its descendent,” replied the Raxth and attacked, this time with much greater strength.
They were likely irritated that I had used my monsters while fighting against them.
CLANNNNG!
The golden claws struck against my sword as it did; a shock couldn’t help but appear on its face.
This time, I did not fly back like a rocket; it had expected me to be, instead just taking a couple of steps back.
I have made a plan; I had started even before entering the battlefield.
I already knew those seventy Grimm Grand Lords were not our enemy; the being is.
The top boss did not come, and I am thankful for that, as the measures I had prepared would have been detected by it, but these eight might be powerful, but still not enough to detect what I had done.
Especially when they are in the company of their own, in their Grand Citadel, their most protected space where no human Grand Lord has taken a step alive or not bound.
Still, all this preparation will give me a chance; there is still an 80% chance that this bastard will kill me.
“It seemed like Rhaek was right; you are really irritating,” it said, and the thick golden fire had covered its claws.
“Claws of Basnr!”
It said, and the first real method of the attack came, and it was very powerful, very powerful that I began to burn more of the essence for greater power while formation inside my core also flared brightly.
“Die,” it said and swung its fiery claw, and I also moved my sword to defend against it.
CLANNNNG!
Its fiery claw hit me like a meteor, and at the same time; the fire released from the claw and came at me before enveloping me.
My totem artifact, with all its power, able to take a quarter of its power, and for that, I couldn’t help but feel grateful, but that feeling lasted for a fraction of a second before I dealt with the fire covering me.
It is extremely powerful, and I am taking it inside my armor, despite knowing that, even if 1% of it leaked inside me, it would burn me to ashes.
I had no other choice; I powered up my armor with even more energy and took all the fire inside, which my armor began to process and sent to runes, which loved anything of bloodline energy.
Especially of this quality.
I had just taken the fire inside me when I saw the Raxth attacking me again, this time with even denser fire.
CLANNNNG!
I defended barely once again, the dense fire covering me, and this time, it did not wait for even a moment before attacking me again.
CLANNNNG!
“You seemed to be able to defend against it; I couldn’t help but wonder how long you will be able to do it,” it said as our weapons clashed and another wave of fire came at me.
It is just starting as it attacks me against, with its claws holding even greater power.
CLANNNNG CLANNNNG CLANNNNG!
It launched one attack after another, sending more and more fire at me; I am opening more and more paths to more paths to take the fire inside me, which increased the risks further and further while straining my armor.
It will make the leaking easier.
Seeing that, I decided to use the processed energy to reinforce my armor; I am sending all the energy to my runes, just a small stream of it while storing the rest in my armor.
I had planned to store the energy for future use, but seeing if the fire leaked inside me, there won’t be any future, so I decided to use this card.
Which is a much better choice than burning up more essence energy. I could not burn too much; the bastard had only revealed small parts of power.
I could clearly see how much it was hiding, and I needed to keep my energy in the preparations for that. It would be better if I am able to kill this bastard before it, but that seemed highly likely.
Still, I would try it with my all.
CLANNNNG!
Another attack hit me, and powerful fire covered me, but this time, just as it had covered me, it was immediately absorbed, even surprising Grimms.
Now, about half of the defenses are powered by the processed bloodline energy from the Grimm, which is the best energy to deal with its attack; with it, processing got faster, and I have even begun to save the energy again.
“You do have some tricks; I wonder whether you will be able to defend against this attack,” It said, and its aura roared, and tens of thousands of lances materialized behind it.
Sup Sup Sup
“I hope you survive, human,” it said, and thousands of lances flew toward me while I cursed inside me.
It will make me spend a lot of energy as I could not dodge this attack. If I tried, one of these lances would skewer me and turn me into ashes.
I don’t want that, at least not before killing it.
Hun!
‘There is no choice,’ I said disappointedly as the runes lit up inside me when I sensed something and immediately turned to Rai.
