Chapter 139: Chapter 139
The beast could be heard letting out as it slowly staggered to its feet, it was seen shaking its head as if trying to regain its senses.
Zen on the other hand was panting, it was actually hard on him to be able to dodge the beast’s strikes. It wasn’t easy as multiple times, he saw his life flash before his eyes and now, he was weaponless.
[Time left before veil deactivates: 40 seconds.]
And in a second, the beast regained its balance and now it was more than angry as it glared at Zen who huffed and panted but was still maintaining his stance and staring at it.
"Get lost." Zen muttered as he watched the beast get ready to charge forward.
{I’m still going to ask my question regardless. Why didn’t you attack when the beast was down instead of waiting for it to get back up and now, it’s coming your way. Isn’t that stupid on your part?}
"I know what I’m doing you annoying busted system. I’m a pro gamer."
{*Was. That’s a correction incase your small ass brain is incapable of realising it.}
The beast howled in pure rage as it blitzed forward, speeding towards Zen who maintained his breathing, his eyes stuck on his sword which was stuck on the beast’s back.
’Almost there.’ he thought as he saw the beast leap into the air, all paws spread out like a bird as its maws were immediately open.
The beast was now almost upon him, just mere moments away when all of a sudden, Zen got on all fours, crouching so low that his chest was currently touching the ground as the beast flew over him and landed on all fours a few feet away.
Zen immediately spun around and dashed forward while the beast was slowly turning around but he increased his speed and in a second, his hand reached out.
Before the beast could fully turn around, Zen grabbed a hold of his sword pulling on it and with one yank, he drew it free causing the beast to howl in pain as it fully turned around and was about clawing at the Reaver but the gamer simply placed his sword in front of the claw blocking and absorbing the hit which he withstood it.
"When I got my veil, I thought that my luck was finally shining on me but who knew that my problems had just begun. Because tell me why the fuck I don’t have something like a flame veil!" Zen thundered in anger as he parried the claw aside and then swung his foot forward aiming for a kick.
Unfortunately for him, the beast was faster,it immediately clamped on the leg tight with its fangs sinking in hard.
"ARGHHHH!" Zen roared in pain as his leg was now stuck in between the wolf’s jaws.
"Curse you!" The Reaver yelled as he lifted his sword and bashed it right onto the beast’s head as it refused to let go.
Zen kept bashing and bashing until the beast howled and accidentally let the bleeding leg go. But the Reaver didn’t let this deter him as he barged his whole weight into the beast sending it tumbling away.
The human landed on all knees, sweat cascading down his face, as his chest rose and fell with exhaustion but he still steeled himself especially with the fact that the beast was now getting ready to attack again.
"I will never give up!" Zen shouted as he rose upright when...
Tring! Google seaʀᴄh novel{f}ire.net
[Time limit elapsed! Zen has been deactivated.]
{Lol! You sure you won’t give up now?}
Right on cue, the sound of something crackling filled the air and dread instantly filled the Reaver’s heart as he glanced down at the beast which had its whole body crackling with lightning.
Its black eyes now shining a furious white light as something almost resembling a smirk crossed its face.
’Shit! I still have one more try on the veil. Activate it aga...’
The beast bolted forward in a blur appearing directly in front of Zen in the blink of an eye before smashing a lightning filled paw right into his face with all the strength the wolf had.
The hit was crazy strong as Zen got blasted ten metres away slamming into a tree and instantly snapping in in two just as blood poured from its mouth and head.
"Shit! Th...this is bad." Zen coughed out a mouthful of blood as he was trying to rise when...
He heard a wet sound like something stabbing into something and a sharp pain filled his side causing him to glance down to see a pair of horns digging into his side that was now bleeding profusely.
Before he could register what was going though, the wolf lifted its head up and Zen was lifted off the ground too and the next second, he was hurled far away with so much force that his body distorted the air as he crashed into a tree bringing the whole thing down.
"Ack!" He coughed out specks of blood as his vision grew blurry and another notification flashed across his face.
"Fu...fuck me! I...I need to activate my Veil now. Only then do...do I have a chance." Zen could be heard stuttering as he twitched on the ground trying his hardest to stand up.
He managed to stagger to his full height but then fell on his knees as his feet buckled under the immense pain. Before he could say he should try again, the wolf darted forward with an almost cynical grin on its face.
And in the blink of an eye,
The horns smashed into Zen’s abdomen going several inches and causing blood to gush out. Blood instantly filled his mouth as his eyes widened in pain.
