The Growth of a Titan

40  Chapter 40- Like Master Like Disciple

"You-!"

The youth went to yell, but his face suddenly became ashen and he coughed out a mouth full of blood.

The boy then stared at Sol with terror.

For a moment, he actually felt the connection with his Innate Dharma weakening.

"No! Give me back my Innate Dharma!"

The boy thinking that Sol had some way to steal his Innate Dharma, suddenly rushed forward.

The girl and the other boy all called out to him surprised by his actions, but he seemed to have lost all reason.

As the boy came running to him, Sol turned and suddenly threw the illusory sword at him.

"I don't want your Innate Dharma."

The boy's footsteps paused as the sword stabbed through him, but because it was his Innate Dharma it merely integrate back into his body.

Sol was about to say something else, but his facial expression suddenly change and he swiftly turned his head around to look into the forest woods.

Sol body instantly froze.

A large eye had appeared behind the trees, whose pupil was that of a slit.

The eye released murderous intent as it glanced at the injured Little Nheer and then back at Sol and the others.

"Eeek!"

"W-What is that?!"

Seeing this large eye suddenly appearing out of nowhere, the three youths all began to panic.

"Don't move if you don't want to die!!"

Sol roared out when he saw that they were about to run away.

This was what Sol wanted to avoid.

Little Nheer wasn't a regular Ibbian Beast. After all, would Little Zeel make friends with normal Ibbian Beasts?

In this dangerous situation, Sol suddenly raised his hands. At the same time, his Innate Dharma appeared and floated over to Little Nheer who was lying motionless on the ground.

The eye merely watched as Sol's Innate Dharma healed Little Nheer.

"There, Little Nheer is all healed, he's fine so don't worry."

The eye looked at Sol, then shifted to the three youths behind him.

The beast's murderous intent was not directed at Sol but at these three youths who tried to kill it's cub.

The three youths who had done as Sol said and stayed frozen instead of running, all felt a cold shiver go down their spines when this massive eye landed on them.

Sol seeing this gritted his teeth before he suddenly turned around and dashed towards the three youths.

BANG!

Sol's foot landed squarely on the first boy's chest which sent him flying back while coughing out a mouth full of blood.

"You-What are you doing?!"

"Saving your lives."

The second boy yelled, but Sol suddenly appeared in front of him and punched out.

BANG!

The boy's eyes went wide while a vicious crack echoed out.

His sternum visibly sunk in from Sol's blow.

As he collapsed to the ground, it was unknown if he died or not.

Glancing at her two companions on the ground, the girl look towards Sol and then at the massive eye.

As if she understood Sol's intentions, instead of resisting, the girl closed her eyes tight and gritted her teeth.

Sol praised this girl for her quick decision in his heart as he took a step forward and punched out once more.

BANG!

Sol didn't hold back and the girl also coughed out a mouth full of blood and collapse onto the ground.

After this, Sol then turned to look at the massive eye.

"Is this enough?"

The large eye still seemed unsatisfied with these results, but Little Zeel who was off to the side suddenly began making noises while jumping around

"Awoo! Awoo! Awoo!"

The massive eye's pupil turned to look at Little Zeel and paused, after, the murderous intent disappeared from the eye.

"With respect to your parent, I will let this go. But I hope you will look out for my child more in the future."

A woman's voice suddenly echoed out.

"Awoo! Awoo!"

Little Zeel seemed to respond to this sudden voice from Little Nheer's mother.

After this exchange, Sol felt Little Nheer's mother's presence vanish.

How such a large beast move without a sound, he did not know.

Sigh.

"To think it knows human speech, just what kind of friends are you making Little Zeel?"

Sol said to Little Zeel who came running up to him.

"Awoo!"

Little Zeel cried as leaped up.

Sol caught him, and while rubbing Little Zeel's fur, he walked over to check on Little Nheer.

Little Nheer was about three times the size of a bear during the fight, but now he had shrunken to the size of a slightly tall adult man.

Sol rubbed Little Nheer's fur, but as his hand came back with blood, his brows furrowed.

Suddenly, the groans of the three youths were heard from behind.

The second youth who was punched by Sol had eyes full of hatred as he forced out.

"T-That bastard, how dare he hurt me to this extent? When I recover I won't let him off easy!"

As the boy was gritting his teeth in anger, his vision was suddenly obscure as Sol appeared over him.

Instantly his face went pale.

"Y-You... What do you want?!"

Sol swept his gaze across the three youths and then asked coldly.

"Why did you attack Little Nheer?"

"Little Nheer? Are you friends with the beast?"

The first boy who looked to be the leader, interjected as he stared at Sol.

After waiting a moment, and seeing that no one seemed to care about his question, Sol raised his foot and lashed out.

Three bangs later the three youths were sprawled on the ground in agony.

"D-Do you even know who I am? My father is-"

BANG!

*Vomit*

"Ah! Senior brother!"

The girl seeing this couldn't help but cry out.

"Ha, you have time worrying about others?"

Sol said mockingly before he picked up a stick nearby and swung out at the girl.

Swish!

The girl couldn't help but yelp at the stinging pain.

"Ah! You damn Barbarian! How can you treat sister Seon like that?! I'll kill you!!"

Swish!

"Ack! Stop that!"

"Stop what?"

Sol asked confused.

Swish!

"That! Stop hitting us!"

Swish!

"Ack!"

"Compared to what you did to Little Nheer this isn't nearly enough to atone for your actions. Now get ready, I'm not going to be satisfied with just this."

Swish!

Swish!

Swish!

Soon, the three youths under Sol's unrelenting hits, had their pitiful cries of pain blend together into a cacophony of noises that spread out in the forest.

This scene was rather familiar.
