Chapter 108 - The Fusion Of Souls, Second Clash (1/2)
The brilliant wave of intricate light spread out like a net, trapping and restraining those within its web like beasts set for slaughter, and vaporized everything into nothing.
Tiny specks of light in the form of creatures faces materialized.
The creatures looked at the two figures floating in the midst of light with gratitude in their eyes before turning blurry and disappearing.
At long last, they were finally free.
”Ahhhhh!”
Luke shrieked in pain, an anguished roar croaked out his screechy throat, the sound of torment beyond bearing. His body spasmed in rigid arch, muscles clenched and straining.
”Ahhhhh!”
His head reared up, and his eyes leaked with fresh blood that seeped into the black threads swirling around his body like a black hole.
Then the light in the region winked out, fading as quickly as a dying legend.
”You...you will pay for this!”
Luke's voice was a weak whisper, then he gave a deep moan and straightened his posture.
The sight he saw almost made him puke out blood.
There, right before him stood a giant black wolf with violet-black eyes and flaming snake tail. From the anomalous creature, an oppressive and majestic aura was discharged.
With a single glance into those violet-black eyes, Luke knew a phenomenon beyond his knowledge had occurred.
”But how!? How is this possible!?”
He was almost driven to insanity by these two individuals. One never followed the norm and the other never reacted as expected.
The fusion of their beast forms was evident sign that this time, they broke their own record of pushing the limits and ascending to new heights.
”How are you doing? Do you feel any discomfort or pain?”
Ramose's voice sounded in Versailles's head, concern and worry filling her senses.
”No discomfort or pain at all! Ramose, was this method really recorded in the manual of your clan's Ancestral Wolf? Why is it so terrifying!”
Versailles was still not able to believe that a method that could fuse the souls of two mates actually existed within the heavens of the seven realms.
”Hmm. It is definitely heaven defying. However, only the Werewolf King can utilize the technique as it requires King blood to activate the spell. Moreover, the person the Wolf King is fusing with can only be his mate.”
”Oh, that's to bad. It would've been great if every beast could use the method.”
Versailles sighed in disappointment. The moment she learned about the Soul Fusion method, a group of Pink Goblins, Gorgons, and Scorpions fusing and battling appeared in her mind, filling her with excitement.
Unfortunately, good things also came with their own restrictions.
”Why? Did you have other plans in mind?” Ramose, connected with Versailles in every sense, instantly perceived her disappointment.
His heart filled with curiosity as he wondered what task his mate had in mind for the soul fusion method.
”Huh? I was planning on using it on my secret forces.”
Versailles hesitated for only a brief moment, guiltily looking around as she spilled the truth. He was already connected to her in a way that wouldn't be possible with any other beast, hearing her every thought and sensing her every mood.
As such, keeping the news of her secret forces from him was impossible.
Besides, by finding out, it wasn't as if he was going to hurt her.
”Just make sure you remain cautious. This realm isn't one of peace and loyalty, so you should never trust or rely on anyone but yourself. Not even me.”
”I know. Don't worry, I won't take any risks.” His concern for her warmed her heart, making her feel full and complete.
It was during times like this that she realized the significance of family members. Only under the presence of a loving mate did she came to know the beauty of life and love.
”Hmm. Now, let me go and take care of this vampire. This shall conclude this portion of the battles.”
”Hmm. Be careful.”
Versailles watched Ramose domineering figure stand before the beast. Because the two's souls were fused together, she sensed his every movement and plan of attack.
In a sense, it was as if the two were fighting together, only Versailles was with him through her fiery soul.
She was inside his beast body in the same way she was during Queen Nakee's healing.
Only this time, she was conscious in her own body that was operated by her spirit, while her soul accompanied Ramose's.
”Wolf King, you shouldn't be here. The challenge of the competition clearly specified that the serpentine was supposed to the participating individual from the Snake and Wolf clans.”
”So as you, Supreme Elder. You are not supposed to be here either, but here you are.”
