Chapter 409 - The Pitfall
Kahn and the company stood 5 kiloters away from the Caladrius. At this point, the 5 thousand strong legion subordinates he left to create a distraction and stall the legendary rank bird monster were wiped out. Only a few with assassin skills remained and acted as Kahn's eyes while he took Kassandra to a safe place.
As for himself… currently, it was the only choice to salvage the situation. Because even if he were to were to safely return to the Kaldris border… nothing but sha awaited him.
Because he was the man of the house and yet, soone broke into his ho and killed his family.
If this was earth… people would preach about hate, loss, justice and forgiveness. Many would tell him to accept the reality and leave everything to the law authorities.
But in the world of Vantrea… it was counted as a Weakness.
And as the sovereign of the Verlassen fiefdom… he was expected to bring back the head of the murderer. Otherwise, everyone would question his reliability and use it to overthrow his reign.
Every year, millions of soldiers died in this fiefdom during the monster waves but Kahn had promised the citizens that things will be different and safer under his watch.
And to maintain his sovereignty… he had to deliver upon his promise.
Swoosh!!
Swoosh!!
The trio of Blackwall, Kahn and Oliver dashed towards the location of Caladrius that was now roaming in the dense forests while searching for the attackers who severely injured his wings and forced in to walk on its feet while still bleeding from place to place.
However, Blackwall sensed that it was using the world energy in the surroundings and absorbing it at a fast pace to heal itself. He inford Kahn that it'd take an hour for it to substantially heal and beco able to fly again.
"Master… We couldn't kill it before. And with that soul attack skill, it would be no different scenario than before. We need a better strategy. And we can't afford to make another mistake." said Blackwall as their trio ran across the dense treelines while completely hiding their aura.
Kahn on the other end has plans of his own.
"I think I have figured it out. But it will require both of you to put yourself in danger again." iterated Kahn.
"Whatever you command, my lord." spoke Oliver in a carefree tone.
Even if they were to die, Kahn could also resurrect them again albeit at high mana cores and ores cost. But if he were to die instead, it'd be an end to all of them.
"Rember, previously… despite and Kassandra fatally wounding it.. It only attacked with that soul damage skill when it was close to death.
So there must be a condition before using it.
Either it is its life-saving skill which can be used only once in a while or it simply takes too much ti to activate.
Otherwise, we all would've died a long ti ago when we fought against it at the military outpost." Kahn explained his analysis.
"And since the bird isn't completely healed yet. It won't be properly able to fly either.
So if we delay any longer.. We won't have the opportunity to kill it in the future at all.
Thanks to the previous fight… it has lost its only advantage. The only thing we need to be careful about now is to not fall to that soul attack skill again." he said.
Kahn then explained his plan based on their individual skills and abilities that would turn out useful to them in this hunt.

TEN MINUTES LATER.
Thud!!
Thud!!
The ground cracked at the massive feet and heavy body of the legendary rank Caladrius rummaged through the treelines.
Crack!
Crack!
The tall trees crack and broke up while dozens of them crashed on the ground.
At this mont, the Caladrius had been eagerly hunting for its enemies who put it in that sorry state for the first ti in its life.
BOOM!!
Shatter!!
Then a loud noise suddenly ca from its back and suddenly, a titanic humanoid figure that was 1 kiloter tall in height alone suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
The ground shattered and hundreds of crevices ford under its massive feet.
At the present mont… Blackwall had turned into his true Primordial Titan form.
Compared to the Caladrius bird, he was two and half tis bigger in height alone. But instead of approaching it.. He had
However, there was no weapon or a shield in his hand this ti. Instead… it looked at the legendary monster that was of the sa rank as him with a fierce gaze.
ROAAAARRRRR!!!
Blackwall used the War Cry skill and taunted Caladrius to focus on himself. He released all of the killing intent on the target so it won't wander off.
KRAAAAAA!!!
Caladrius also released a battlecry of its own and challenged the titan to a fight. So in simple words… it was a fight between two colossal figures.
A descendant of the Godbeast Roc vs a variant Primordial Titan.
The ground trembled while the trees shivered under both of their imnse and heavy aura. The entire 5 kiloters of space seed to be frozen given the insurmountable pressure released by these two ginormous beings.
However….
Crack!!
Crack!!
Blackwall pointed his hand towards the Caladrius and the very next second, a wide crevice ford under the feet of the ginormous bird monster.
In just 4 seconds, the ground completely cracked open and a 1 kiloter wide pitfall was suddenly created.
Terrain Manipulation!
Unlike Kahn, Blackwall was on a different level while using the innate skills of the Mountain Titan whom he was rged with.
Soon, more than ten massive earth elental spikes quickly ca out of the surrounding ground and plunged themselves into the two feet of the enemy.
Caladrius who was taken aback couldn't even use its wind elental spells and suddenly fell into this extrely broad pitfall as its wings were already damaged and it was unable to fly.
Blackwall on the other end touched the ground below and soon… a 200 ter height massive boulder was created by him.
Without waiting for another mont, his massive arms picked up this boulder and Blackwall carried it on his shoulder.
Thud!!
Thud!!
Blackwall steadily walked towards the fallen Caladrius that was letting out ear-deafening noises. But because there was not enough space… it could even use its wings or cast any of the wind elental skills like before.
The titanic figure of Blackwall carrying a massive round boulder on his shoulder as if he had to close a hole in the wall stood in front of the struggling Caladrius.
Just then, he heard Kahn speak in his mind.
"Drop the wrecking ball."
