Chapter 82 – The Howl Of A Child (2/2)
The anaconda hissed as it stared in confusion at the boy.
It did not know why but the boy’s actions were simply too strange. It was clear that the wolf’s death infuriated him, but the large snake could not understand why a beast’s death would affect a human.
Besides, it got a dangerous feeling from the waves of crimson energy rotating above the human boy.
“I do not think I have been this angry in a very long time…”
Calron gritted through his teeth, as a cloud of crimson energy erupted underneath him.
“TI…TAN’S…FURY!”
Calron roared into the sky, as his skin took on a reddish hue and the illusion of a colossal giant appeared behind him.
*RRRROOOOAAAARRRR*
The muscular giant bellowed, as it brought down both its fists to strike the ground, causing a mighty earthquake.
“T-This… ”
The large snake dumbfoundedly stared at the human, with its heart in turmoil.
Just the aura of the giant’s illusion was enough to ignite fear within its body, but upon gazing into the cruel eyes of the approaching human, the anaconda felt afraid for the first time since advancing into the second rank.
Not even its tribe’s Chief could evoke such terror from its soul.
At this moment, even Calron did not realize that the current pressure emitted by him was causing a second rank Vajra stage expert to tremble in fright.
“DIE!”
In the blink of an eye, Calron appeared in front of the green anaconda and thrust his palm towards its head.
The reflection of Calron’s reddish face appeared within the large snake’s eyes as it numbly stood there.
It wanted to attack.
It wanted to dodge.
But something prevented it from moving a single muscle.
Before it died, only a single word echoed throughout its mind.
“How?”
…………………
Meanwhile, Ezkael patiently watched the scene unfold below him.
“Something is wrong… his power should not have increased by this great of a factor… “
Ezkael muttered to himself as he observed the energy fluctuations around his student.
“The Blood Legacy… I’ve never even heard of it in my realm… to think an existence such as that could exist in the mortal world. I will need to take a deeper look into it.”
Ezkael mused.
There was no strength in this world that did not have an equal price for its boons. The Divine Perception was a technique that eroded the minds of its user if not controlled properly, and the Azure Lightning could damage the internal body if used excessively.
However, the Blood Legacy appeared to deviate from this pattern.
Ezkael had recently observed that Calron could instantly use the legacy’s abilities without much backlash, and even the Titan’s Fury that would have once destroyed his body, no longer seemed to discomfort the boy.
“It might be due to Calron’s own strength and cultivation advancing, but something tells me that there is something more profound about this legacy…”
Ezkael speculated as his smoky body scattered into the wind.
………………..
A low whimper suddenly sounded out from behind Calron.
No longer channeling the Blood Legacy’s domain, Calron slowly turned around to face a tiny wolf pup quivering on the ground as it let out mournful sobs.
His heart throbbed with pity when he saw the tears pouring down the little beast’s furry face.
He did not know when, but he had come to see these beasts just like he would humans. Calron wanted to pick up the tiny pup from the ground and comfort it, but he did not wish to frighten it, so he simply watched in silence.
The little wolf pup slowly stepped towards its mother’s body, as its tiny limbs shook uncontrollably.
With a small whimper, it gently nudged the giant wolf’s snout.
Seeing that its mother was not waking up, the little beast once again nudged the giant wolf with its furry head.
“Awwooo”
The wolf pup raised its tiny head and let out a heart-broken howl, as it mourned to the world about the loss of its only family.
