Chapter 2662: Purple II

Ahhh

"This human b.a.s.t.a.r.d is really strange. Should I just stop the formation and kill it in a single attack?" asked the Grimm videte; till now, the screams of humans in front of it had been m.u.f.fled, but now, they have become a full-blown load.

"Maybe this is all the act; this human b.a.s.t.a.r.d might be just acting," it mumbled, looking at the silver artifact on the human's chest, which energy is still covering the human.

"I will wait for a few minutes before deciding," it said and looked around cautiously, especially the boundaries of formation, which it had strengthened to limit and also scanned itself deeply from outside with its vidette energy.

It had heard about the strings of Zaar, and how many of kin had simply disappeared once it had gotten caught in it. Though it had complete confidence in itself given its strength of vidette, it still did not want to take the risk.

It is how it had survived for so long and reached its current stage; it had always played safely and immediately ran away when things got dangerous. It got punished many times for that, but it had been rewarded with long life, and that is what matters the most.

I don't know how long it has pa.s.sed since I began to circulate this horrifying energy, but the circulation has become even more careful, and I want to curse at my clone for that, despite knowing it is done by own order.

Seeing I have very little information about the purple energy, I had asked it to make changes as it got more data, and since I have begun circulating.

It had made changes three times; all three times, the amount of purple energy I was circulating reduced, and two times, the pain of circulation had lessened before increasing suddenly a few seconds ago that making me open my mouth and scream loudly.

Though despite an increase in pain, circulation has become smoother, and I am using half of the purple energy than I had begun.

It is likely due to the changes in the soul-was.h.i.+ng energy, which is now more compatible with the purple energy since my clone had made the changes in it. It would be wonderful if it could do something about the pain.

I will not say that to it, as managing the formation is not the only thing it has in its hand. It is also doing other important things, things that will help me survive, while the only thing I have to do is circulate the energy.

It would have been much less strainful if I had two clones, but that is not a thing I should be thinking about right now.

Time pa.s.sed when suddenly, another change occurred in the energy; the circulation became a lot smoother, and the pain had also lessened. Though it is only about 5%, it is extremly helpful against the pain I am feeling.

The pain I am feeling is someone is scratching my soul with nail-laden sand-paper. It is extremly painful, and this small relief was like slightly blunting the edges of those nails; it had helped me tremendously.

"Just what the h.e.l.l is happening?" Rsas asked itself; it had expected Zaar to roll on the ground with hallucination and behave like a person suffering from hallucinations would suffer, but instead, it standing on the stop shaking while screaming loudly as streams of sweat flew out of its body.

It looked at Zaar for a while before coming to a decision with great joy s.h.i.+ning in its eyes.

"I really didn't think this b.a.s.t.a.r.d would be worth it, but since it had been behaving strangely; it had left me with no choice but to do it," the Grimms viddete said with a sigh, but the cruel expressions appeared on its face as it touched the runic circle in front of it.

"Full power," said the Grimm vidette gleefully as it activated the formation at its full power.

"With the full power, I will not know whether this strange behavior is just an act or something else; not that it matters anyway, no High-Grandmaster could survive the full power, not even with the help of an artifact, which would lose the power soon enough."

As I was circulating the energy, I felt the power of psychedelics increase suddenly, and this increase was substantial, but strangely, my clone seemed to have increased the amount of purple energy by about 10. Though, I did feel soul-was.h.i.+ng energy getting more than twice stronger.

It had barely affected the pain but made already difficult circulation of energy even more difficult. The blood, which had stopped some time ago, began to flow out of my orifices again.

The strain was too much that it had affected my physical body; it is a small price to pay to survive.

'Half of the purple energy had been spent,'

A very loud sound of my clone rang out through my mind; I was able to understand it with all the circulation.

The reminder did not surprise me; I have already used it for more than one could imagine. Before I started circulation, I could have power for one minute, but I circulation, I barely used one-tenth of it and even that half to half sometime later.

So, I have already survived far longer than I ought to and probably would go for another seven to eight minutes. I hope my clone would be able to do what I had asked; otherwise, there is no way I would survive this b.a.s.t.a.r.d.

My luck is really s.h.i.+tty compared to these Grimm b.a.s.t.a.r.ds; we have entered the ruin about the same time, but they have appeared close to the destination that I. If I had appeared in their place, then it would be standing outside of the formation and the Grimm inside.

There are still the Grimms that had gone into that door; the two Grimm's auras I had sensed did not belong to this b.a.s.t.a.r.d; it is clear the Grimms have gone behind that door.

They might have already got what is there and returning. I really wish these thoughts of mine wouldn't come true; I am already at death's door in front of this vidette, and if another one appeared, I would be gone; no guile and subterfuge will be able to save me.

"It had been ten minutes; why there is no change," Rsas muttered as the human still standing without moving

It had thought after releasing the full power of the formation, the humans would fall into hallucination, but that did not seem to be happening. Maybe it is happening; some inheritance lets one lock the body and the armor, something like that might happen to this b.a.s.t.a.r.d.

Just as it had thought that it had shaken its head, the aura of this b.a.s.t.a.r.d is too stable. It did not feel like the hallucination was affecting it, and it blamed it all on the silver artifact, but even the artifact did not explain the strange behavior of the human.

"Five minutes more of this strange behavior, and I will kill it with my own hands," Rsas finally decided. It likes to be cautious, but sometimes there is no option to take a risk.

This strange behavior of humans is giving it a weird feeling which it is not like at all.

Hun!

It was wrestling with its thought when suddenly it felt a strange aura came out of the human. It had disappeared just as it appeared, doubting whether it sensed it or it was just a hallucination, but it crushed those doubts; it was sure it was real, and it had made it very uncomfortable.
