Chapter 49: Elliots Strength! (1/2)

Elliot, Theo, John, and Lisa immediately stood up and turned to look at the sources of the howls and noticed several dozen Iron Fanged Shades running past one tree after another, scampering towards the clearing, The beasts were about twice their size, more than two-meter tall and three-meter wide, having fangs shaped like knives. They were covered in grey furs and running towards them while staring at them with eyes seething with cruelty.

”Damn! The scent of blood must have attracted them here,” Theo said, feeling aggravated at finding himself in such a deadly situation.

For the beasts, the delicious scent of blood coming from the corpses outdid the horrendous smell of the monster repelling reagents.

Thus, they were here to get a taste of flesh and blood.

Omg!

John's and Lisa's eyes opened wide in horror as they found themselves getting surrounded by Iron Fanged Shades from all four sides. They were left with nowhere to run. There was no escape from this situation.

”What do we do?” John asked with a panicked expression on his face.

”I don't wanna die at such a young age,” Lisa said in a shaky voice, almost as if she was ready to break down and start crying.

Theo also was panicking but he didn't have a severe look on his face.

I guess I have no choice but to use my forbidden superpowers, Theo thought, ready to take off his pair of eyeglasses to use his special superpower.

However, he stopped as Elliot's carefree voice rang in his ears.

”Guys, stop making a fuss about this situation, and just relax,” Elliot said to them, a carefree expression on his face.

John's and Lisa's eyes twitched at his nonchalant attitude.

The Iron-Fanged Shades are just dozens of meters away from them.

And they were closing in on them from all sides at a rapid speed!

The moment they reach them, they will get enrolled in a deadly battle and might even die!

Yet, Elliot had the ”no matter what happens, don't lose your calm” look on his face.

Did he eat the guts of the king of the beast while still in his mother's womb? Or does he not fear death?

”How can we relax?! There are only four of us, while there are around a hundred of them. Fighting against all of them would lead to our death.” Lisa said out loud, terrified out of her wits.

”What is the need to fight all of them at the same time while risking our lives, when I can defeat all of them without anyone risking anything?” Elliot said in a confident voice as a cheesy smile formed on his face.

”Huh?” John's lips parted in confusion.

”What do you mean?” Theo asked, wondering what Elliot meant by his words.

”See for yourselves,” Elliot said, lifting his face and exposing an overconfident smile on his face.

His eyes glistened in a profound light as a mystical image popped up in his mind.

Close your wings and embrace me in your motherly warmth. Keep all dangers away from me and protect me from all harms. Gaia's Celestial Dome!
