"Hey there," I said loudly to the Frogman.
It didn't open its eyes for several seconds and when it did, it was angry, but it controlled its anger and turned to me.
"You have disturbed my practice, native," it said, "Yes, I did," I replied with a smile on my face.
"Its expressions turned serious and powerful of High-Earth Sovereign came out of it. A moment later, it moved, not toward me, but behind me.
It was escaping.
"Smart," I said, and a moment later, it stopped with shock. The Grimm is smart, but I am smarter; I have sealed it from the inside out.
I had come here over half an hour ago, and I would have killed it by me. I may talk to my prey, but I don't play with them.
I could have simply pulled it into my core, but I was looking at its method. I wanted to see what changes appeared in it and what it would suffer when it abruptly cut its method.
I appeared in front of it and pulled it to my core before resuming my journey.
While inside me, the runes started to climb over it and my clone opened its storage, looking for certain something.
It would be an understatement to say I was impressed by the method. I am plenty impressed, it is the reason why, I had spent more than half an hour seeing how it worked and even took a risk of waking it up.
A few seconds later, my clone had found what it had been looking for and started to read it.
A few minutes passed, and I simply stopped.
'Interesting,' I thought sometime later and resumed my journey. The method is for the Grimms, but there are many aspects of it that intrigued me, and I added it to the list of immediate research.
I feel like it could help me with improving my strengthening methods.
I will do anything to improve further and further and in this one, I am seeing a big chance.
I will need such chances because the strengthening methods will continue for a long and I will need to continue to raise their efficacy to be useful to me.
I couldn't depend on the Grimms; the bastards are fickle.
Hun!
I was thinking about the method when suddenly. I had sensed the Grimms and not one but two of them and both belong to the same tribe and have the same bloodline.
They are Rock Armored Lizardmen; one is the Initial Earth-Sovereign and uses some kind of method to bear the curse energy, while the other one is the Mid-Earth Sovereign.
It is quite surprising to see them passing through the area, seeing things could turn for the Initial Sovereign here.
They also seemed to be in a kind of hurry, and I was going to delay them forever.
After seeing they were no bait; I moved toward them and within a few minutes; I reached them.
Hun!
A few seconds after that, they discovered me.
"You guys seemed to be in quite a hurry. Mind telling me, where you are going?" I asked, and both the Lizardman glared.
"You have one chance to fuck off or you will become our snack on our journey to our destination," it said, glaring at me angrily while threateningly revealing its aura.
"Oh, I am scared," I said mockingly before the spear appeared in my hand.
Burst 100%.
I activated the power of full burst and moved toward me, making it glare at me before that glare turned into a bloody grin as the powerful aura blasted off its body.
A bloodline phantom formed over it, before merging back into it.
As it did, it was shot toward me, with a black gem-handled saber in its hand.
"Cvirs Comet," It shouted, appeared in front of me, and swung that saber. The dense grey energy covering the saber inflated, taking the shape of the comet.n(-OVElB1n
It didn't only look like a comet but felt like it had the power of a comet. The momentum and power behind the attack made it serious but turned it into a grin.
It is not the only one who is excited; I am excited too.
CLANNNG!
Our weapons clashed and both of us shook; a surprise appeared on its face. While I just grinned.
The energies that covered me were absorbed into my armor and refined through thousands of formations before being sent to my runes.
"Cvirs Razor," It attacked, wasting without any second.
It had been a while since I had come across the Grimm, who shouted the name of the attack. It is refreshing and I hope we had been in a secluded space; there, I wouldn't have tried to end the battle as soon as possible.
CLANNNG!
I defended and this time, there was not even the slightest shaking. Unlike it, who shook a little, and it made it angry.
It launched another attack, shouting its name while I just swung my spear in defense.
CLANNNG CLANNNG CLANNNG
Our weapons clashed, and it attacked again, and I defended.
Its failure to breach my defenses, despite increasing the power of its attack, made it frustrated and angry.
It had stopped controlling those emotions and started channeling them. It is a risky, but common enough strategy among the bloodline Grimms; it helped them harness more power.
Though it comes with great risk.
Puch!
It was launching another when it found my spear in its chest. It is surprised. It shouldn't have been. It is the one who gave me the chance in its fury.
"You know, even among the Grimms with bloodline. I found those with the ability to control their emotions, most difficult to deal with."
"They use the fury, but they are always in control. They do not let it control them," I finished my speech and pulled it into my core.
Even with the opening. It wouldn't have been easy to kill it, but I have gotten stronger since coming here and now with it, I will become even stronger.
Puch!
"There is no use in running," I said to the other Stone Armored Lizardman and a moment later, my spear pierced through its chest from behind.
