Chapter 965 The Smell Of Blood

Whoooooooooosh.

The first thing Wain did was swing his sword, but not toward the cloud, but along his arm, revealing a wide wound.

"What the hell...? What the hell is he up to?" Okam muttered in a confusion, "Whatever, it won't help him anyway."

Dark drops of blood ran down Wain's arm, then he swung his arm, making the blood fly high.

At the same moment, the darkness behind Wain, headed toward the blood drops and began rapidly absorbing them, transforming into some kind of creature.

'I have never used so much energy before, especially together with my blood, so this one must be the pinnacle of my abilities at the moment.' Wain internally muttered with a bitter smile.

Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.

A silhouette appeared behind him, with a large jaw and five eyes with vertical, bloodshot pupils. The silhouette had long arms and legs as well as a lean body that seemed unable to support its total weight.

All five eyes stared at Okam simultaneously, giving him goosebumps.

"What is this...? You certainly don't have the skills of a summoner, the most you should be able to do is just let some of the energy out of yourself..." Okam muttered in disbelief.

"Hah, that's just my energy. I just let it take a certain shape, I didn't even control it since it's my energy after all, no one has to control it." Wain shrugged as he looked at the cloud, which was already quite close.

Step. Step. Step.

The monster stepped forward, stepping in front of Wain. Each step it took created a shockwave that echoed for hundreds of meters.

The sound of a monster's clenching jaw sent a chill down everyone's spine and made Nyren's forehead sweat.

'No way... There's no way we can fight this monster...' Nyren muttered inwardly and he wasn't talking about the silhouette at all as his gaze fell on Wain.

Whooooooooooooosh.

The cloud pounced on the monster, trying to absorb it into the void. The pulling force was enormous as clots of darkness began to separate from the monster's body, disappearing into the void.

'Hahaha! I knew that even he couldn't handle my strongest attack! It didn't matter that he was a Nameless King, he was only on the Absolute Stage! It was the perfect opportunity and I definitely didn't miss it!' Okam was inwardly cheering since he was completely sure he had already won.

'Hey, if you don't know the best way to deal with your opponent, just tear him apart with your hands. That's the easiest and most effective way. Just giving you some advice." Wain waved his hand as he looked at the monster.

"Roooooaaaaaaarrrrrr!!!"

The monster roared furiously as his pupils narrowed, then he stepped forward and grabbed the cloud with his long paws.

According to Wain, the monster tried to tear the cloud apart, but despite all the conditions, it just didn't have enough strength to do so. The cloud stretched hard, but the center remained stationary; the hole continued to divide the monster into clots, gradually defeating it.

"Well, well, it looks like your paws weren't strong enough. This is rather unfortunate since you have just learned what failure is." Wain said calmly, holding up his chin, "If it doesn't work that way, try another way. Besides strong arms, you have a powerful jaw."

"Roooooaaaaaaarrrrr!!!"

However, unlike last time, the monster didn't want to heed Wain's advice, so he just kept trying to tear the cloud apart with his long arms.

"Damn, you're actually a hell of a lot like me, I rarely take advice from others either... though in the end, if I get to the limit, I have to choose another option..." Wain muttered with a slight smile on his face as the monster stopped dragging the cloud in different directions.

There were already two-thirds of the monster left since the cloud kept trying to absorb it, but now came the critical situation in which everything changed.

Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.

The monster opened its massive jaw wide so that it could now swallow the cloud in one bite.

"Go for it. Do it. I know what you want." Wain whispered with a sly grin.

At the same moment, the monster's jaw slammed shut when the most important point in their fight came, the most important one that now made everything clear.

"No way..." Okam muttered in despair as he looked at the cloud that was now in the monster's mouth.

The monster moved his jaw a few times, chewing the cloud, then he did the same thing Wain had done before, he just spits out a massive white blob that now had no energy in it.

"Hahahahahaha!!! That's the best you could do!" Wain laughed in excitement.

Okam's face turned pale as a piece of paper. He didn't know what to do as he spent most of his energy on this attack.

'Wait... He must have little energy left, too. If they help me, together we can overpower him!' Okam's eyes went wide as he turned around, about to ask Nyren for help.

Crackling.

Suddenly, trickles of blood flowed from the corners of Okam's mouth as he felt an intense pain in his stomach area.

"What's going on...?" Okam muttered as he looked down to see a bloody palm sticking out of his stomach.

"I'm sorry, it had to happen sooner or later. I didn't expect it to happen today, but maybe it's for the best." A quiet voice came from behind Okam.

Okam turned around and his eyes trembled, for the one who attacked him was not Wain or the monster, but Nyren.

"Bastard... What are you up to...?" Okam said with difficulty while blood flowed from his mouth.

"Nothing complicated. The Cloud Clan needs a new elder since the previous one will die today. Obviously, I will easily take the position. Don't worry, I won't disappoint you. You led us into battle against an invincible opponent, so you must take responsibility for that." Nyren said coldly before pulling his palm from Okam's body.
