Chapter 464 - 464: True creation path

"Descendants of god beasts? Pfft! You are yet to see how terrifying real gods are!" Blink scoffed as he walked towards the trio.

Before getting sent over here, Derik had supplied them with as much information as he could about this new god vein. According to the information he received, during their decades spent on war and the thousands of years, spent in the void as a result of their death, this new god vein had formed and produced its first set of new gods. Unfortunately, power corrupts and since even magic beasts in the world could rise to the realm of gods, a battle broke out between the human gods and the god beasts. The human gods were more in numbers but the god beasts were stronger due to their special bloodlines and innate abilities. 

According to Derik, the battle ended in a tie and up till today the victor is unknown. The gods of both races vanished, only leaving behind mortal descendants to take their place. Because of this history, the feud between the humans and the beast-men had reached great heights.

Seeing the red-haired beats man youth, alongside his other beast men colleagues, even Blink couldn't help but admit that the average beast-man is worth at least two talented human mages or fighter or even both combined. If they were moved over to the Aldemar continent and are given an equal chance to grow, Blink was sure these people will dominate. His bad habits inherited from Derik, clicked and his urge to subdue this race with the best of his abilities kicked in. 

He didn't feel like bringing them down, just for the sake of satisfaction but because the human race in these worlds are the ones enslaved and only the human emperor has been able to keep them safe. Blink would have considered joining hands with the human emperor and staying a bit longer here just to wipe out the enemy forces but Derik's mission comes first. He can't risk having the others know about the power source Derik is searching for.

"You are dumb not to have noticed we are not from this world… Where I come from, we wiped out the beast-man race… I personally led an army of humans and murdered beast men in the thousands… Spoiler alert, there is none left in my world" Blink sneered.

He knew it was best to keep his identity hidden and a low profile but this is something he couldn't ignore. He was pretty sure if Derik was here, he would have done the same.

{My master always said I can only regret things I didn't get to do… If I leave this place without leaving a mark, I don't think I'll ever be able to focus} Blink thought.

Bang!

His clothes fluttered as his silver aura escaped from his body, creating silver tattoos all over his arm all the way from his shoulders. His silver sleeveless mage robe complemented his glowing silver eyes.

"I see this field is filled with human corpses, I guess it's only fair if I add yours to the number" Blink spoke as his body was engulfed with his silver aura, making everyone else feel small.

"What the hell…." Bradley muttered as he refused to back down from the challenge.

As a member of the Fotia empire royal family, Bradley had no intentions of fleeing, neither did he have a choice since his family name and his pride is on the line. Even though he wasn't a member of the main branch of the Phoenix clan, running from such a confrontation is akin to a death sentence placed on him when he returns. He couldn't understand what Blink meant by killing thousands of beast-men or his claim of coming from another world, all he knows is that one of them has to die here.

"Such big words for someone younger than myself… I am Bradley Phoenix, a descendant of emperor Fei of the Fotia empire! A second year in the Fotia academy and a warrior realm mage at the mid-tier… Don't think you can kill me so easily!" Bradley said.

Boom!

"Heeeeehhhhhhhhh!"

Bradley was engulfed in a red aura as a fire hurricane and a wind hurricane twirled and twisted around him. The two youths standing by his side retreated, giving both combatants space to fight on equal terms.

Bam!

Bam!

The staredown lasted for a few seconds and the next second both men were dashing towards each other.

"Creation path: Fire phoenix!" Bradley clasped his hand together and slowly opened it. Behind him, a fire phoenix formed and shot forward.

Cawwwwwwww!

The flaming bird figure shot towards Blink and as it moved it slowly increased in size until it was about 4ft tall in size. Its body lacked in-depth details but its eyes showed signs of life and intelligence which was unusual even for someone like Blink.

"Giving life to a spell? Impossible!" Blink growled as he mimicked Bradley's actions.

Clasping his hands together and slowly moving them apart, a spatial gate was formed in front of him, just a moment before the flaming bird was about to collide with him.

Cawwww!

Swoosh!

Too dumbfounded to talk, Blink watched in shock as the Firebird swiftly spun to the side, gracefully evading the spatial gate.

Bam!

Landing roughly, the fire phoenix raised an arm, revealing its magnificent flaming wings before swiping it at Blink like a blade even before anyone had the chance to commend its beauty.

"The hell!" Blink growled as he stomped the ground hard and jumped into the spatial gate he created earlier, narrowly escaping the attack.

"That wasn't a mistake… The mage wasn't controlling the flaming bird…. It has a mind of its own… I guess he wasn't joking when he said creation path…." Clovis said with a bitter smile on his face as he watched a new spatial get form a few meters away from which Blink jumped out from.

He could understand the reason for the surprised look on his partner's face since this was too unusual. Even Derik's signature secret combat technique: werewolves roar may be regarded as a branch of creation magic but these beasts can never go beyond Derik's limitations. It was clear Derik was controlling the demonic wolf but Bradley here was not controlling the flaming bird in any way.
