Harem of the final villain in an ERO MMO!!! I just need to survive
Chapter 119 119: What The Dog Doing [Pt2]
Keith was frozen in place as pressure surrounded him from every side. His feet did not agree with him when he commanded them to move and it was clear that it had something to do with the pressure Keith was under.
'Move, darn it. Why is my body like this.'
Keith knew he was in trouble as soon as he noticed that the beast had closed in on his location. He would be impaled by those sharp claws in a matter of seconds.
"Shit, hey look out. I will help you out right now."
Shinzou yelled as he started running toward Keith as well. But Keith could tell that Shinzou would not be able to make it back in time. Keith would have to be the one to save himself.
He gripped his mana stone tightly and prayed that it was enough. The spell created a small lightning bolt and hit the Fenrir beats. But it did not even make the Fenrir beast wobble in his place.
Instead, the beast looked pissed off and decided to shake its shock off. And then it became even more enraged as a result of being attacked. Keith clenched his fists and shook his head as a result.
Master Shinzou threw his sword to catch the beast but it missed its mark the beast was too close to Keith now and his mind went blank.
Thankfully, Keith had one last line of defense left in his body - his unconscious instincts this body had. And that was the only thing that saved his life right now.
Keith was not thinking, he was just moving back as fast as his body could to avoid those sharp claws. The second he would snap out of his state, it would be all over for him.
The beast was frustrated when it was not able to hit anything, no matter how hard he tried to hit the human. The human was far too fast and agile for his claws to make contact.
The human had not been like this seconds ago and the beast had been certain of its victory and to get an artifact. But now this human was showing himself to be an annoyance.

The agile human make that sound and it sounded familiar to the beast. It caused his body to flinch as a familiar power created a barrier between himself and the human. But it was god's power so it did not mean much to Fenrir.
His claws contacted the ground once again and now it was beyond agitated.
A beast had no concept of time, but Fenrir beasts had far more awareness. And it knew that it was wasting time. The beast needed to be back before the sunset and there was not much time left before that happened.
"Noah, are you alright?"
The half-god female spoke and the beast felt a growl break out from his throat. How dare a disgraced half-ling speak in its mighty presence? Did she not realize she was below Fenrir in the food chain of gods? She was asking to be killed.
And then there was the 'other' human who had been trying to hit the beast for some time now. He was the only one who looked to be a threat to the beast right now.
"Getting arrogant in front of me? You are pissing me off."
The beast looked back at the human he had been chasing with a sharp eye. The voice, the attitude, and even the power he felt right now were different from what it had been seconds before.
The beast felt his body go down with a single strike to his vital points. It was not sure how or why, but the human had a weird presence right now - somewhat between dead and alive.
The red eyes that looked back at it were also hollow and without emotions. They made the beast uncomfortable. And finally, the sunset and the dark were coming.
The Fenrir beast had been out for too long and its body began to melt into the ground with the darkness. It could not exist if the sun was not present in the sky. The beast will have to try again tomorrow.
.....
Keith knew he was going to die today. His instincts told him as such and that made Keith desperate to keep on living.
His mind was blank and his body was moving. There was a foreign presence in his body, pushing his consciousness away and Keith was too tired to fight it.
If he was safe, he did not care what happened. So, Keith allowed himself to retreat for now and for the other presence to take control of himself for the time being.
"Tsk"
The tone sounded familiar and Keith was startled to know that it was his voice that had made that noise.
But even if it was his mouth that made that noise, it was such a different and arrogant tone that Keith could not help but be taken aback.
His body moved in a motion as he had never seen it move before and his fingers jabbed something soft. The beast in front of him went down with a single strike from Keith but he knew he had done nothing to it.
"Getting arrogant in front of me? You are pissing me off."
Keith was startled to notice his mouth moving all on its own but now he had an idea about what was going on.
His body was unconsciously channeling the grandmaster's power and authority. Even if the soul was no longer there, this body remember the training and habits the grandmaster went through and it stored it.
As such, when Keith had been pushed too far, his body decided to take charge and thus, it had moved as if it had been possessed.
Keith did not know if he should be freaked out or be thankful that he had discovered such a thing. It was the only thing that saved his life.
The sun was setting and the beast struggled to get up. But in the end, the setting sun caused it is a body to melt away. It gave Keith one last look before it disappeared. And Keith could not help but sigh in relief.
"Ke-Noah, are you alright? What happened here? Did the beast leave? I saw you take it down. How did that happen?"
Clair had a lot of questions for Keith but she could not come out and ask them. She had to be mindful of Master Shinzou now as well since the man was in the vicinity.

Keith's mind was a little messy right now and he could not gather his thoughts very well. He tried to remember what had happened but his tired body reminded him that he needed to rest.
Clair noticed it as well and decided to stop pushing Keith for answers.
"You fought very well. I am surprised to see that I have not heard from you until now. What is your name? And how do you know Clair?"
Keith had forgotten all about Master Shinzou. So, he was surprised when Master Shinzou walked over to him and Clair.
Not even a single hair was out of place in his sea of red and his golden eyes were blazing with curiosity and a need to know. Master Shinzou was like a huge child that needed to know everything.
Keith opened his mouth to speak but he soon closed it. He did not know what kind of excuse he could make right now that would get him out of trouble.
Thankfully, he was not alone right now. And Clair seemed much more invested and experienced in lying to the other people. She was also the one who made an excuse this time.
"T-This man here is my step-brother. You see, we did not know about each other until recently. My mother sent me a letter and I decided to meet him today. It is a coincidence."
Clair explained and she was bullshitting her way through it.
"Oh, I see. So that was why Grandmaster gave you his phone and helped you out. It was because he knew you were Clair's brother and that you needed to contact her. Grandmaster is such a benevolent person. Be sure to thank him in the future, alright?"
Somehow, that flimsy explanation worked. Master Shinzou let this explanation go and he was also glad to provide Keith with tips on how to repay the grandmaster.
Clair tried to stop her laughter as Shinzou lectured Keith. It must be so funny for her to see Keith suffering like this.
But thankfully, Master Shinzou decided that he needed to head back and start his patrol. Grandmaster had assigned him a duty and he needed to fulfill it.
"Clair, see you around. Noah, if you even feel like it, join our guild. I will vouch for you."
