Chapter 2177 - Golden Fire Werewolf (1/2)

”I wish I could take your praise,” I said with a smile and got up. I failed on breaking the steles, and now I have to face it head-on.

”You are too humble; you had come a few hours earlier, you would have been able to stop me, and it would cost me dearly,” It said. There is no menace that could be heard from its voice, and it even feels quite cultured.

Our conversation felt like two friends talking and not mortal enemies who would try their hardest to kill each other.

”What was that exactly you have strengthened your core with?” I asked; a surprise flashed in its eyes as it heard my question before it had disappeared.

”It is the essence of beast,” It replied simply, and this time it was my turn to surprise. The answer is not simple as it said, but if it is telling the truth, then this Werewolf is one lucky bastard to get something like that to strengthen its core.

”You are very lucky to get something like it,” I said to which a bright smile appeared on its face.

”Yes, I am, and now turned even luckier now that you have come,” It said while directly looking at my chest, which made me feel a little uncomfortable for some reason.

”My grand art is telling me your core is something that would benefit me a lot, a lot more than what beast essence has provided me, which is quite shocking seeing I have not felt that even from the Grandmasters,” It said, scaring the hell out of me.

I had specifically added several formations in my core that would stop scrying of others, seeing big the core of my secrete is but this Grimm bastard was still able to sense something from it.

The Grand Arts, you really can't underestimate them, I thought as I gripped my sword tightly and prepared myself for a very dangerous battle.

”You think you can defeat me,” I asked with a smile, not showing fluctuation of emotions I am having in my heart.

”I know I can. My art is telling me I could, and my art had never been wrong,” It said, alarming me even further. A scrying type of art is one of the most dangerous ones; those who possess them are very tricky to deal with.

”Many people thought the same, even that Eagleman had thought that but all of them had gone to the underworld,” I said, and it did not seem surprise hearing that, even seemed quite pleased by it.

”You are quite powerful, alright, but still nothing in front of me,” It said; its sealed aura exploded.

For a moment, horror dawned on my face as I had throught I was facing a Grandmaster, but I quickly recovered and activated the most optimum move to deal with this Golden Fire Werewolf, forgetting all the strategies I had made to deal with it.

It had launched the attack the moment it had revealed its power. A sword appeared in its hand, a rarity among the Werewolves who usually prefer the long claws.
