Chapter 315: Vampires Overlord, Kar (1/2)

The condensed spiritual arm had a transparent appearance, and Arthur unknowingly made it similar to the Arm of Creation. Since he can never regenerate his arm, he might also make use of the spiritual power it left behind.

”You're becoming more of a freak every day,” Traitor squinted his eyes. ”What does it feel like to become something you don't even know?”

”How about you answer this: What does it feel like to be beaten by something you look down upon.” Arthur stood up and began walking. ”Come down here, mutt.”

”I'll show you the real power of the Wolfmen.” Traitor's body began to expand rapidly, his claws becoming as long as swords. He became twice as big as before, descending on the island and creating a crater.

Boom!

The landing of the giant wolfman shook the island. His knees bent as the monster crouched and bolted toward Arthur, appearing in front of him instantly.

”Your head is mine.” The wolf clawed at Arthur, who simply smirked in response.

”Ah, I missed this feeling.” Arthur grinned as he spat a single word. ”Release!” The golden rune activated as mana exploded around Arthur.

The golden mana seeped into his spiritual arm, creating a golden and blue ethereal arm. The claw arrived, and Arthur punched with his left arm.

The two attacks met midair; a short pause ensued. All of a sudden, Traitor's arm disappeared. Arthur could see his eyes widening, but he gave the monster no time to retreat.

Striking the ground with his right hand, Arthur flipped through the air and kicked Traitor's abdomen. The kick sent the giant monster flying across the island until he slammed into the world's end. He then fell to the ground, listless and unmoving.

”That is... it?” Gala muttered, surprised. ”After all that arrogance, that's all he had?”

”He was indeed strong, but the Seika's attack was simply... overpowered.”

Arthur was equally speechless. Feeling the two girls' gaze on his back, he needed to come up with something. However, he couldn't act surprised after his earlier words. But inwardly, his thought process was quite different.

'What just happened? Was this guy weak? No, the whole island shook by his landing. Did something change in the Release Rune?'

Arthur checked his legacy and found the rune to be the same. It didn't evolve, nor did it get any enhancement. Turning around, he acted calmly.

”Have you heard of the idiom: all talk but no action?” Arthur said after clearing his throat. ”I suspect that this man has a unique ability, Bluffing!”

”Your mother is bluffing!” The wolfman spat blood as he stood up again. His arm was gone, obliterated from existence. Blood pooled from his shoulder into the ground as he looked at Arthur with a murderous gaze.

”Hey, leave my mother out of this.” Arthur frowned. ”If you keep talking like that, I'm not inviting you to the Only-One-Arm Club,”

”You won't be this relaxed anymore,” The wolf raised his head and gave howled toward the sky. A crack appeared in the sky, and a red light came out from it.

”The Inner World is breaking!” Gala shouted as she held on to Roya and covered Daniel with mana. ”Seika, take him down now!”

”It's too late.” Dia shook her head as a cobweb of cracks appeared in the Inner World, and the space grew unstable. ”We're being pushed out.” Dia raised her head toward the sky. as the light turned into world particles.

”Wait for me, Little One.” Arthur picked up the spirit and placed it in the cabinet as the world began to break down. ”I still have many questions.”

Everything disappeared, and the group appeared outside in the middle of the square. The world was red as a blood moon hung in the sky above them.

Several feet away, the giant wolf was still howling toward the sky. Rays of red light descended on its body as it began to grow bigger.  Its size didn't stop growing until it was as big as the building beside it.

”See? Bluffing.” Arthur turned to Gala and Dia and pointed at the fuming giant monster. ”All size, no power.” He said with a smirk.

”Bastard!” The wolf roared and raised its claws to attack. Looking around, Arthur found that many citizens were still here, frozen in fear.

”Gala and Dia, evacuate everyone from here. I'll take care of it.” Arthur jumped down from the root as the monster prepared to attack everything in its way. ”As for you, Restrain!”

Restrains, reinforced by his spiritual arm, sprawled out of Arthur's rune like snakes and tied down the giant wolf. However, Traitor broke them apart quickly, but it was enough to buy time.

”Awooo!” Traitor howled to the sky, and blood began to rain down on the square. The blood gathered around his shoulder and created a new blood arm.

As soon as the blood touched the people's skin, their flesh began to melt, and screams of agony reverberated through the square.
