Chapter 8 - Bloody battle

I was Awkoken by Roi who had a paniced expression on his face.

I glanced at him.

What is it? I am still sleepy and its too early for me to wake up.

before I could complain more, A message from system appeared in front of me.

it read

[tier-9 wolffrawn will be released at the centre of {trial}]

What does this mean, Roi? i asked, scared a bit because of how paniced Roi seemed.

 

Roi begun explaining.

You know about my group of planets right? 

I sat there silent for a bit. 

Roi siged and said 

so in our group of planets, every creature is classified into 10 tiers. with tier 10 being the weakest and tier 1 being the strongest. But difference in power between each tier is vast. So I think every one of us challengers should be classified into tier 10. So the tier 9 monster is a very large threat. Normally most of the tribes creatures are haveing sentiance but occasionally, some tribes doesn't. and wolffrawn is one of those tribes.

We will have to defeat that monster and another one if we have to finish the trial peacefully.

But if we kill one person before the Monster is released, then we wont be able to finish the trial peacefully.

After listening to all that, I started panicking too, but eventually calmed myself and said to Roi

We have to repair inorder to defeat that beast we don't have much time, we have to hur-

before I could finish that sentence, I realised something and looked at Roi's Body.

Jin smirked he just had an amazing idea, one which would potentially allow them to defeat the monster.

*****

I was on the town, walking towards the centre along with Roi. we were both tense.

After walking for a few for while, we finally reached our destination.

 

We could see a weird Rift in reality which would be opened in exactly 10 minutes.

 

I could see 3 more people nearby.

It seemed like they had met up with each other just like how Jin and Roi had met.

 

I started walking towards them. They glanced at me, then they Undone the transformation bestowed upon them by the system.

 

They were the rest of the challangers.

 

One was a large and ferotious rhino which had human like-features. But probably wasent human. It was standing on two legs and towered over jin, who had also untransformed.

 

Roi was standing beside me but still I felt a tinge of fear arising.

 

Second was a mantis who was not That big, but still had human like features. The mantis looked even more threating now after knowing that she was actally the princess of the mantis tribe from whatever system of planets Roi had talked about.

 

Finally there was a human standing beside them both, who pales in comparison. He had a bow, which seemed to be crudly made up of a large stick which arched a little and had a string between them. He also had some arrows which also seemed to be made by himself.

 

I looked at him, smiling softly because it was the first time I had actually met a real human who also came as a challenger into the {trial}.

 

While I was distracted, a system message came. It read-

[Tier-9 wolffrawn is being relased]

 

Suddenly the Rift in spaced seemed to grow larger, then a large, ferotious and absoloutly terryfing monster was standing infront of them It was standing on four legs but was still way larger than the rhino.

 

In the centre of the city, there was a large empy area which was where the monster had spawned.

 

Some of the villagers ran while screaming after seeing the wolf.

 

I looked at my right hand, which was covered in bandages , then raised my hand slightly.

The monster had already noticed us.

 

Suddenly the mantis rushed forward With rhino following closely behind.

 

Roi glanced at me and then raised his slimey hands which was currently in a vague humoniod shape.

He then started to clear some space inside his own body because he was able to freely transform himself. 

 

The human challenger glanced at he and raised his bow. Then tried to shoot an arrow.

The string pathetically broke.

 

Suddenly a ringing sound drew my attention. It was the sound of The mantis, jackey's claws striking against the claws of wolffrawn.

 

The rhono acted as a tank, trying to tank the hits of wolffrawn. He was just barely holding on. The mantis leaped and tried to strike wolffrawn's eyes but missed because the monster reacted too quickly.

Even then, Jackey's claw striked against Wolffran's cheeks but nothing seemed to happen. The monster just kept on attacking without slowing down even a tiny bit.

 

Now the monster was trying to hit The mantis, but Jackey was too quick and nimble to be caught by an attack.

 

I had to act fast, because now The monster was distracted faceing Jackey and the Rhino. I started removing my bandages. After sometime, it had been finally comepletly removed and my right arm looked Pitch backed and seemed as if I had large claws -Which he did-.

I now raised my right arm and pointed it towards the ferotious monster. I started to draw Void from my heart. It moved through the veins in my hand and finally a black blop popped out of my hand.

It started twisting, then spinning with a lot of speed it looked like a tiny arrow made out of pitch black- substance coming out of Jin's hand.

 

Then it burst with so much speed that I almost lost balance due to the recoil. It flew towards the monster with so much speed that it could barely react.

 

But it could still barly react. I had aimed at its eyes, but it moved enough to make the arrow hit in its front shoulders. It went with so much speed that the beast momentarily fell down. But quicly got back up.

When I looked at it after regaining my balance, it had a large gapeing Wound on his front shoulders. But it was nowhere close being fatal. It seemed as if the monster could tank a lot more of void shots.

 

I muttered-

"damn I was aiming to eliminate the beast with that attack"

 

Then a system message appeared infront of me and it showed the remaining amount of void in my void heart.

 

[void heart – {5/10}]

 

I could only do one more void shot.

 

 

I ganced at Roi again He had already formed vacuum inside his slimey hands. I could see the void and I would be able to interact with it due to the attribute [bearer of void].

I grabbed Roi's fake hand and started absorbing void from the vacuum present inside it.

 

The pace at which I was able able to absorb void was also way quicker.

 

After just a moment, my voidheart was already full and the system message came out.

 

[void heart {10/10}]

 

Now I am going to have to fight the beast face to face.

 

The rhino already had multiple wounds on its body , it seemed as if even its hard skin couldn't save him from the beast's attaks.

 

The mantis was still almost unhurt, almost. She still had tiny wounds going all over her body.

I raise my hand, spread my 5 fingers, my fingers itself were all the blades I needed.

 

His fingers were sharp because it was transformed with the skill- Void arm.

 

I started running towards the beast, leaping towards it. I put my hands in a position which would be suitable to hurt the monster and scratched it.

The monster immediately retaliated and raised it claws and slashed at me. I couldn't even react to it.

Now there was a large wound on my chest. The monster also had a wound on its body, but it was just too small compared to what it could acheve.

I fell to the ground.

It hurts , but nowhere as much as I endured while Unlocking my first ability.

 

The mantis stared at me with a expression of pity.

 

I gritted my teeth and jumped towards the beast again. This time towards its eyes. But it was already ready to retaliate it wouldn't be caught lacking agan.

 

But this time, I wouldn't be caught off guard too. When the claw of Wolffrawn reached close enough to me, a small black explostion could be seen from under one of my leg. Which gave me enough momentum to dodge the claw perfectly.

I shot towards the monster's eyes.

No matter what creature, Eyes were always a weakspot.

When I was close enough, instead of swiping the eyes with my claws, I raised my hands, my palm faced towards the beast's eyes and super close.

 

A small blob of void came out of my hand, and started spinning vigorously. This time, I didn't shoot it forward, I just kept it spinning after the speed got too much, it Burst with so much power cancel out all of the momentum I already had and also shot me backwards all of this happened in just a moment.

 

The creature had lost its one eye and also had taken a lot of damage.
