"Die!"
It roared and attacked me again with the massive claw.
This time, I didn't move my sword or even rest the momentum or change direction. Which seemed to surprise it. If I had been in its place, I would have been surprised too.
Though despite sensing something was wrong, it didn't stop the attack. Instead, poured more power into it.
I looked at those massive claws, and my lips curved as I finally pulled my strings.
Immediately, its eyes widened, while I levered the strings to slow myself down, before stopping myself.
"What did you do to me?" asked the Werewolf with panic in its eyes. "Nothing," I replied innocently, before shooting toward it.
Range blazed in its eyes, but controlled the emotions and instead blasted a powerful aura from his body, which was only slightly stronger than before.
It was using nearly all its power against me.
It focused on the strings and tried to break them, and I had to stay. It is powerful. It had strained the strings, like a few ever did, and moved.
Yes, it could move despite the strings, but his speed is barely a tenth of what it is. Which is fast, considering it is a Sky Sovereign, but I could still catch up to it and every second, I got closer and closer.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt took me four seconds to reach the Werewolf and as I did, I poured every bit of power into my sword.
"Die!" I shouted and for the first time, a few appeared in its eyes.
Till now, even with the bindings, it wasn't scared, but now, fear is evident in its eyes. it is not my attack that made it scary, but the power of defensive methods.
It was able to summon defensive methods. I wasn't able to stop it, but their power wasn't something it had expected.
Bang Bang Bang!
My sword crushed through them one after another and reached it finally.
The fear turned to horror, and it tried to run even faster, straining the strings even further, but not fast enough.
My sword had reached it, and its enchantments blazed.
Puch!
I used everything I had and pushed the sword into its chest, before piercing its heart, while it watched in horror.
I could easily be destroying its heart and that will kill it, but I didn't. instead, I sent a cocktail of energies.
Which widened its eyes, and it opened its mouth to scream, but I closed it before it could let out the slightest noise.
For several seconds, it resisted, before finally, it fell unconscious.
'Too long,' I said and pulled the body of the Grimms inside.
Immediately, the strain on my core increased. There are hundreds of monsters and a corrupted inside my core and now Sky Sovereign. While my core could bear the Grimms well, the strain is high.
Thankfully, the runes have started to appear; seeing them, a big smile couldn't help, but appear on my face.
It had been a long time since I saw them.
Now, with all the Grimms around, I will be seeing them a lot and to be honest, I am scared about it, but it also made me excited.
Buzz!
I watched till, the runes buzzed, and harvest began the harvest, while I focused on the healing. The Werewolf had messed me up great, I needed to heal enough to project my full power.
It isn't the only Sky Sovereign Grimm around. I had sensed one, earlier. It looked at the battles and moved away, which is good because I was no match for it.
Aside from the Sky Sovereigns. There are many Earth Sovereigns and two, I have the eyes on.
I sat down and closed my eyes. I am acutely aware that, the elf is looking at me. He had broken the cage and was now staring; I don't mind, but if the bastard tried something, I would kill him.
I am really angry at him, and I, really hope, he does something.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmUnfortunately, he didn't. He stared at me for a couple of seconds, before flying away.
A few minutes passed, and finally, I recovered enough to project my full power.
The Sky Sovereign inside my core had also turned into a beautiful essence. The first one in years. Seeing it, I wasn't able to resist myself and brought it out and looked at the beautiful things.
"Beautiful," I muttered.
It is truly beautiful and dangerous. It had the energies of the Sky Sovereign; it could do many things, but I usually use them for research and feed to my necromantic plant.
This thing is going to help it tremendously.
I have used the essence roses; I have sparingly. It might be two years outside, but it was over eight inside. The plant had an insatiable appetite, and I had a supply of only three-five months of core time, which is a little over a month outside.
Now, with Grimm appearing, I won't need to worry about the supply of essence roses. However, I would need to be careful.
I can kill this one. I won't be lucky against the others.
I looked at the rose for a second, more, before flying up and moving toward the Grimms.
There was a smile on my face, that refused to go away. The smile isn't about the bloodline Grimms toward, I am moving, but about the Grimm I had killed, not long ago.
It is a freaking Sky Sovereign, and I had killed it.
I am a Sovereign and killed a Sky Sovereign. If people were to know it, they would be shocked out of their minds.
Such things could happen only in myth, and I have achieved it. Though, I know, a lot of luck was involved in it, and I wouldn't have been able to do it if the Grimm had done a few things differently.
I shook those thoughts away.
I killed the Sky Sovereign, and it is the truth.
