Monster Integration (Web Novel)

"It wouldn't even take me even ten seconds to kill a weakling like you," said Lone Horn Crockman, while glancing at Ragas from the corner of its eyes.

It only looked for a moment before coming at me, with its aura blazing.

I harnessed the power of the burst as I looked at Crockman coming at me, with a huge, jagged white crystal blade shining in power.

Seeing the power, it is bringing out it didn't intend to hold back at all. It wants to finish me up in a single attack before going back to the real price.

"Die!

It took a second to appear beside me before it swung its jagged sword at me, shouting.

I moved my sword in defense.

CLANG!

Our swords clashed. Immediately, a vomit of blood came out of my mouth, and took the steps back, before stopping at three steps and looking at it with shock.

And found it looking at me with the same look and the same reason, behind the shock.

I thought I would fly away like a cannonball, with all bloodied, but I have only taken three steps back and vomited once. That is my mistake. If I estimated its strength well, I would have barely taken a step back, with no vomiting.

It seemed like the suppression was affecting the others more than I had imagined.

If it had attacked outside; I would have been all bloody, without any energy to get up.

"I had underestimated you," it said and a powerful aura blasted off its body, and it came at me, with its blade shining with power.

"Arovos teeth!" it shouted as it appeared beside me and attacked.

It is shouting the name of the attack is quite surprising, as not Grimms or even natives do that. It is like announcing the attack and giving a faint edge to enemies.

I responded by harnessing more power and this time; I am more confident and better prepared to deal with its attacks.

CLANNG!

Our weapons clashed, and I shook before taking a step back. The attack was more powerful, but this time, I adjusted my armor well and was able to defend by only taking a step back.

I had not even vomited.

"You were hiding your power well," it said and came at me with an even more powerful aura blasting off its body.

The jagged edges of its blade begin to vibrate as it swung its sword at me, but this time, it had not shouted the name of its attack; it just did, and I moved my sword to defend myself.

CLANNG CLANNG CLANNG!

I defended, taking another step back, but this time, it had learned from its mistake and attacked again, before I even stabilized.

It was hard to react in such cases, but I have practice.

I responded to its attacks while studying its combat style, which is average. I have fought many Primary-III Grimms here, who had a better combat style than this one.

I looked at it clearly and saw it being young; it seemed like; it is quite talented to advance such quickly.

Though it seemed like it had not focused on his base as much as it should be. Which is great for me. If it had been strong as the other Lone Horn Crockman, I wouldn't be standing here.

That bastard is stronger, despite its power being suppressed. What is surprising is that Ragas fights him, without losing.

He is not using any artifacts aside from that shield and sword, and the only power he is using is his art, and I have to say. He is very good, better than my mother and sister had been.

This is not surprising, considering he had come from the place where he had been trained by the people who have the art.

They have taken the art to such a height that I couldn't even dream of.

While all my mother had were the records and those records, didn't even cover the basic application of the art. Still, despite that she is one most powerful people, or the most powerful to ever comprehend the empire of mist in our world.

It is increasing its power, forcing me to harness more and more of mine. If this continued, I would soon reach my limit.

There is nothing I could do about it. Other than taking solace that it also uses more and more power. If I am not wrong, it is also reaching the limit quickly as me.

I am thanking the suppression with my breath, or I wouldn't have been taking the breaths right now.

It is affecting them at a far greater height than I had imagined. I am fortunate that I have a forbidden energy merged into every inch of me, and every treatment and breakthrough would increase that amount further.

CLANNNG!

I defended another attack, this time using all my power while taking two steps back.

It came at me again and attacked. I once again defended, while taking the three steps back; it seemed to have noticed; I have reached the limit as a big grin appeared on its face.

"Now, you will die!"

It said and the aura like never before burst out of its body; it is so powerful that my expressions, that all the hair on my body stood up.

It had revealed its full power, and I was not surprised. I had expected it would be this powerful and now I have to defend against it.

"Hehe!"

I didn't waste any time and attacked with such power that I wanted to throw away my sword and run, but I controlled my emotions and moved my sword into a defensive position.

CLANNNNG!

Its jagged blade clashed hard with my sword. With such power, I started to bleed from all the holes from the shock alone, before started to take the steps back rapidly.

Channeling the physical force into the ground through my feet. So, I wouldn't shoot back.
