Chapter 281 Kill The Wolf! (2)

Skullius backed away further in the dark as the eye sprouted.

It twitched with an unsightly squirm as the purple iris constricted and focused on him even in this darkness!

‘The heck?’ Skullius thought as he reignited his ‘Radiant Awakening’ preparing to attack, however…

The burning wolf suddenly rose and opened its mouth wide.

The spots of lights that glowed bright within its mouth had the hues of green, red and white positioned in a triangular formation.

They had a saturated glow, lighting up the peculiar dark space within the wolf’s mouth that was akin to a lonely void.

The green light shone with a brighter intensity than the other two and in the next moment it overshadowed the others with its luminance, growing into something akin to a bright green gem that revolved within the creature’s maw!

The wolf instantly chomped down on this gem, a verdant brilliance covering the entire wolf immediately!

What followed was something Skullius didn’t expect, as the wolf went on to jerk and shudder, its body suddenly releasing a unique flash of white mana that pushed the flames away from its body, its flesh that had been burnt and torn by his sword and flame ballooning to growth right then!

The blackish-red fur regrew and the wolf looked lively again, having driven away the flames..

Skullius frowned as he held [Demion’s Dance], his flashy figure bursting forward to decapitate the wolf before it did what it fully recovered!

The moment the sword whistled out of its sheath again, Skullius felt more of his strength being used as every grain of power he had was sucked in by the blade as he bulleted ahead and swung with all his might!

The darkness around him trembled from the aura of death that sprang within Skullius’ body, energising him further!

His hair rose and he felt the sword wiggle with glee as it tore through the neck of the large wolf easily, the head of the creature flying off without much resistance!

Skullius only stopped in his tracks after he was six meters away from the body of the wolf that was surrounded by his dying flame!

As he finished his flashy attack, Skullius slumped as his ‘Radiant Awakening’ died down, revealing his detailed image.

He felt heavy from the discount exhaustion he felt and frankly, he didn’t feel secure still.

He turned to the body of the wolf, the severed neck still leaking blood and saw….

‘Come on bro?!’

Instead of the slumping body that he expected to see, Skullius saw the stump left in the wake of his sword’s strike tumble and bulge before flesh ballooned from it, rapidly shaping itself from being a nasty lump of pink veiny flesh, into the wolf’s furry head!

Regeneration!

High level regeneration at that!

The wolf this time didn’t dally, opening its mouth while to reveal in the dark space within, two spots of light of the colours red and white, appearing blinkingly in parallel positions to each other!

The red light suddenly bulked up, becoming what seemed like a red shiny gem which the wolf instantly chomped down on!

The moment the wolf did, Skullius had a really bad feeling.

To back up this sensation, the purple eye at the forehead of the wolf glowed bright, pulsing with a thick surge of Primus while the wolf emitted visible swaths of glowing steam from its mouth while its belly drooped as if something had suddenly appeared in its stomach!

The wolf’s purple eye faced Skullius and before the Discount Human could even think to make a move, the beast opened its mouth unnaturally wide, something flooding out of it with a horrifyingly sinister force!

A massive blast of energy like a stream of pressurised steaming water erupted from the wolf’s mouth, bearing a dark red hue that foretold of nothing but destruction!

As the [Perfect Night Domain] fed Skullius everything that happened within this space, the Discount Human felt the stream of energy that headed towards him plough through the surrounding [Evil Darkness], augmented heavily by the purple eye that supplied to it Primus energy!

As Skullius was in complete control of the domain, his intent could prompt the darkness to do his bidding, unlike with the [Bead of Malevolence]!

He was catapulted upwards by the darkness and he felt himself barely escape the stream of destructive energy that nearly grazed his legs but destroyed everything else in a clear line!

The force he was flung with was so intense that he exited the domain from above, his figure appearing in the outside space where crackles of lightning, waves of sand and flashes of gold flickered in his peripheral vision.

Below, his darkness suddenly ruptured at its end, a burst of red energy obliterating much of the domain easily!

The beam of energy was relentless as it went on to pound on the wall on the other side, demolishing its integrity!

The [Perfect Night Domain] started to break down as its source, Skullius, was no longer within maintaining it.

But this was of no consequence as Skullius had more moves up his sleeve!

He would still hammer on attacks before the wolf was completely freed from the remnants of darkness.

[Crude World Projection]!

A dark figure streamed from out of Skullius’ body, tearing through the air as it looked down, it’s shape vaguely looking like a human’s with creases and depression that outlined Skullius’ body.

The Discount Human waved his hands in an authoritative fashion, the darkness which remained suddenly becoming lively again as it rushed towards the body of the wolf that was starting to get exposed from the disappearing domain!

It formed a large encirclement that started to compress and blanket around the broken domain as Skullius’ dark figure brought his hands together as if he was gripping the distant darkness himself, moulding it as he saw fit!

The dark shuddered as it compressed and overlapping on itself, Skullius’ intent being to capture the darn thing he had surrounded with the darkness and figure out a way to kill it in the next few seconds!

‘Now. All that’s left is to… what?’

…!

No way.

Impossible.

Skullius quivered for a brief moment even in this form as shockingly, he found that the wolf was not in his blanket of darkness!

He had trapped nothing but air!

His senses drew him to turn his head upwards, and for the Null Life of him he could barely believe it when he saw five claws darting down from the red-furred creature that looked down at him with three bloodthirsty eyes!

Skullius was frozen for a fraction of a moment from shock but he was prompted to act only when the wolf opened its expansive mouth, steam brimming from it as a stream of energy coagulated in its gut ready to fire in the next instant!

‘Flesh me sideways!’ Skullius thought begrudging.
