Chapter 47: Actively Hunting V
Bang!
Bang!
The Tree Demon noticed Fenrir was definitely up to no good by running up its body and began slamming its own vibes against its body, with the aim of pushing the wolf off its body.
Bang!
Bang!
The thick vines continued to whip against its body, aimed at places where Fenrir would land. However, the wolf keept evading the attacks until it reached the top.of the Trew Demon.
Now fifty meters above ground level, Fenrir arrived at the crown of the towering Tree Demon which was covered with thick dark green leaves. It found an gaping hole that ran all the way through the Tree Demon atop the crown that led into the tree and without delay, the wolf leaped into it.
Kreeeee!!
The Tree Demon finally noticed what Fenrir was after and in an attempt to stop it from doing just that, it attacked itself.
Thuck!
Thuck!!
The sharpened tips of its vines shot toward itself, digging holes through its own body going one would meet with the wolf inside of it.
Kreeeee!!
The Tree Demon could feel Fenrir dropping lower and lower, the wolf arriving closer to its target and yet, none of its vines had had made contact with the wolf. Experience tales at ???
The Trew Demon then aimed at its own core. Fenrir was after it and the Tree Demon knew so. Attacking the core at the right time meant it could get its vine to stab Fenrir.
One second passed.
Two seconds passed.
And then…
Thuck!!
It stabbed toward the core with insane speed hoping it would manage to impale the wolf within it but once again, it failed.
Fenrir sensed the incoming attack and spin as it descended, making the attack miss, only brushing off a few strands of hair from its fur.
The wolf's eye shimmered with a dangerous light as it opened its mouth despite still falling down.
(Devourer)!
Fenrir's skill activated instantly, the essence core of the Tree Demon vanishing from it original location into the mouth of the wolf.
Thud!
Fenrir landed at the bottom of the Tree Demon's inside and in an instant, the loss of its Essence Core began to take effect.
Fenrir watched as the Tree Demon decayed from the inside, the decay spreading in all directions and darkening the walls.
Shhhhhhh…
Finally, the Tree Demon dried up and began withering away like dust.
As it scattered into dust, it revealed Fenrir, the wolf's eyes already scanning the area for its next target.
All around, there were charred trees burnt to a crisp and remant parts for a few others that had been obliterated incompletely by Cerbe. It has been doing a good job at reducing their targets.
There were only about a dozen Tree Demons left. However, Cerbe seemed to noticed Damien's Magic Essence reserves were running low so it now battling physically rather than spamming large fire balls.
Bang!
The hound's claws slapped off a portion of one of the remaining Tree Demons making it screech in pain.
Kreeeeee!
Bang!
It received another slap.
Grrrr…
Another guttural growl came from Fenrir's throat and in a second, it chose its next target.
Bang!
Fenrir crashed into one of the larger Tree Demons, pushing it on the ground. At five metres, the wolf was only a quarter of the tree's height and yet…
Thud!
The Tree Demon crashed to the ground, its vines whipping in all directions to keep the wolf at bay but it was already too late. Fenrir was atop of it.
Rooooar!!
Shrrrip!!
The Monstrous Wolf roared and then hit into a certain part of the Tree Demon's trunk, pulling out a blackened orb.
(Devourer)!
Fenrir activated its skill once again, devouring the essence core he'd just pulled out of the Tree Demon, rendering the Tree Demon dead without its core.
Fenrir didn't delay, going after a second after it had dealt with the first and after the second came a third. The wolf was on a killing spree and with every step it took, its feet dug into the ground, leaving footprints even in such a grassy floor.
Fenrir attacked, each bite from the wolf pulling out another essence core and killing off a Tree Demon.
Cerbe attacked, each slap and bite destroying parts of the Tree Demons the hound encountered.
Within a few minutes, both summons had emptied the battlefield. Slowly, both beasts took steps toward their summoner who remained unconscious not too far away from the battle.
After a series of growls from Fenrir, the hound seemingly understanding the wolf's growls, it vanished, cancelling the summon by itself.
With only the wolf left, it increased its pace toward Damien and immediately it arrived in front of him, it opened its mouth, letting out a black orb of still energy. It looked very dense, so dense that it appeared to be still.
Fenrir used its paw to turn Damien's palm so it faced upward and then the essence core rolled out of Fenrir's mouth, landing on top of Damien's palm.
However, nothing happened. There was no change or effect caused by the code on Damien's hand. It just remained there, doing nothing.
Grrrrr…
The wolf growled in frustration. It had hoped Damien's skill (Essence Devourer) would automatically activate, making him absorb the magic essence within the cores and convert it to Life Force so he could become conscious once again.
Seeing that nothing worked, the wolf sat down beside its unconscious summoner without saying a word. It chose to protect him and it would do so until Damien ran out of magic essence and the summon was cancelled.
With a terrifying Grade Five beast, that towered five metres sitting next to him, Damien was the safest at the moment m any attacker would have to think twice before attacking them.
Slowly, an hour passed. Then two hours. Three hours soon passed as well and then six hours.
Damien was refusing to wake up. He remained unconscious but the wolf, being very sensitive, noticed a very subtle change in Damien's condition.
It raised its head up from its lying position as it observed Damien's temperature. It had been cold and almost lifeless when Fenrir had first rescued him from the tree vines but now, it felt warm. It was not much but the wolf could sense that its summoner was getting better.
Only after six more hours did Damien's eyes flinch. They shook slightly, becoming more noticeable each time until they opened.
