"That’s quite a big piece," it said with a smile on its face.
It is a handso man, an elf with a green face, who looks like it was sculpted by a grandmaster.
It would be handso enough to make anyone fall in love with it, if it were not for the thick pus coming out of nearly every part of its body.
The man in front of is a damn host. Unlike the infected monsters, this one has an itornas inside it.
’I am truly fucked!’ I thought. It is powerful enough to tear apart quite easily. I have information about it, and this is one of the most powerful itornas hosts among all.
According to information, it is the fifth most powerful host. Sothing I am no match for.
"Thank you, Pri Leryn," I replied with a smile. To that, a surprise appeared on its face.
"It seed like they didn’t forget ," he said with a grin. "Of course not," I replied, shaking my head.
The itornas had captured him four centuries ago, turning him into the host.
The man is powerful, but also very talented in fighting. He didn’t lose that, as I had said. Becoming the host of Itornas didn’t make them lose their personalities or mories.
The itornas warps their minds, and as such, they beco absolutely loyal to them.
That is the most terrifying thing about them.
"You must be new? I have not heard about you," he asked, looking at curiously. "I am, arrived in the realm just a year and a half ago," I replied, to which his eyes flashed in surprise.
"You are quite daring for a newcor. Usually, it takes at least a decade for an even more powerful newcor to co this far to this dangerous place," he said.
"I was just curious," I replied with a shrug.
To anyone looking from a distance, it seed like we were having a friendly conversation, but far from it.
I am scared shitless and making every preparation to survive. I have already begun using the forbidden power without hesitation.
Survival cos first, everything else later.
"So, are you going to accept the gift of the great itornas?" he asked with a big smile on his face. "I can not pri. I love my free will too much for that; besides, the pus is not my thing," I replied.
"Its unfortunate. Your acceptance of it would have been painless. shoving down your throat will be a lot more painful," it said and attacked.
Its attack was fast, so fast that the only thing I saw was a blur.
CLANNNNG!
A mont later, its sword clashed against the invisible shields, which beca visible.
A sphere appeared around , beautiful with a pale red color. Red instead of the usual blue and green because it is powered by burning my blood.
I burned the mont I discovered it. There was no hesitation.
The chitchat helped as it gave ti to remove half of the strings from my armor and use them to strengthen the sphere even further.
Still, despite using the power of my burning blood. It had created a large rust brown ripple, while I shook in my place.
It, on the other hand, watched in shock.
"Quite a powerful shield you have," he praised, looking at the shield and ripple that had just disappeared.
"Thank you, Pri," I replied.
"It might be great, but it won’t save you," he said, and attacked again, and I felt it even more powerful than before.
His green saber, covered in the law of rust, ca at once more. It is blurring, but I could still feel the power, and it scared .
I pushed those emotions down. I cannot let it affect ; I need to remain rational to survive this.
CLANNNNG!
The saber clashed once more, creating an even bigger ripple. I could feel the power in the attack, the law of rust, its inheritance energy, and energies from Itornas.
It had made its attacks so powerful that the shockwave produced from it ripped apart the trees around us.
The violet energy is pretty good at stopping the other, but even it is taking so ti to deal with it.
"Ah, you are burning the essence to power the shield," he said as the ripple vanished.
"You know, that will help end. Once I break through your little shield, it won’t take much effort to turn into the host with your weakened state," he added.
It made shudder visibly. To that, it grinned, before attacking again.
CLANNNNG CLANNNNG CLANNNNG!
Its saber clashed against once more, before clashing again and again.
Each attack would create a ripple, and now there are over ten ripples, and they are producing massive strain on the shield.
I am shaking non-stop as I work with my clones to make my shield better against its attack, but its attack is getting stronger faster than I can improve my shield.
Leaving with no choice but to use more blood essence to strengthen the sphere further.
My luck is terrible.
When people co to this place, the biggest danger they face is the energy, but since I ca here. I have co across nurous monsters, fought the plant, and now I am using everything I have to survive against this monster.
It is a monster of imnse power. There is a huge gap between us.
If not for my abilities, which let him defend against the attacks of those higher level than . I would have been in a place worse than death.
It had already made its intention clear. It didn’t want to kill ; it wants to make a host like itself.
That would be a fate worse than death, as it will take my freedom.
I cannot let that happen. I need to do everything in my power to survive; becoming a host isn’t an option.
CLANNNNNG!
Another attack ca, and I knew instantly that it was different. It imdiately created the biggest ripple, which put imnse pressure on the sphere.
Crack!
A mont later, a faint sound rang out, but to , it was like a thunderclap.
"It is like any other shield. As long as there is enough power, it will break," it said with a grin and attacked again with even greater power.
