Ficool

Chapter 51 - Shudder

Around this same moment the wolf and the dark falcon began to clash outside of the cave, so violently that it almost felt as if the beast were shaking the world.

Lucian could feel the vibrations from the intense battle rumbling through the air and his body as the ground began to shake as the forest came to life with small creatures and beast stampeding from the battle zone.

The closer he got the stronger the vibrations got, to the point where he could feel the roots of the trees being slowly uprooted beneath his feet.

"Lux tell Althea we need to find a vantage point I don't know how much closer I can get before I become a part of this scuffle." Lucian spoke into the ring Lux had given him.

A few Km away…

Althea receiver Lucian's message from Tena as she had already slowed her own approach as the stampeding beast in front of her seemed to already be her match let alone the two monsters fighting for supremacy closer to the foot of the mountain.

Althea jumped onto a nearby tree and began to climb until she reached the top. At the top of the tree she could clearly see the giant figure of the dark falcon streaking through the sky and careening towards the ground in fast succession.

'They wanted us to hunt that…' she thought as she tried to guess how fast the dark falcon was going while also looking for a point where she could safely rendezvous with Lucian.

As she looked around from the peak of the tree she could see a large lake about 3Km from the base of the tree.

She quickly relayed the location information into the ring arena had given her to share the message with Lucian before she began moving in the direction towards the lake.

'Damn it, it sounds like she's closer.' Lucian gritted his teeth as he began to make his way through the now crumbling forest as the collisions between the two beast became more and more violent.

At this same time Jason had also decided that he wouldn't have traveled so far into the belly of the beast for nothing.

With his cloaking ability he silently and quickly slipped into the lake before the man of water could notice him.

At the bottom of the lake was a golden spear that seemed to be deeply lodged between the earth, and next to it were a pile of eggs that seemed invisible almost transparent underwater.

'That spear seems monstrous, kind of like the weapon that old fogie related to the master uses.' Jason thought internally.

While Jason was in his thoughts and observing the treasures at the bottom of the lace he saw an underwater cave opening.

Just as he saw this opportunity for escape he felt the water begin to tighten around his throat and the water in front of him began to change into the form of the man he had seen appear above the water.

Seeing this Jason acted quickly unleashing his full power to the point all the water around him blew away almost entirely clearing the lake of water.

From the look of it the man had been blown away giving Jason a chance to flee through the underwater cave entrance reactivating his cloaking ability.

He didn't stop to glance behind him, aware he wasn't this man's match and protecting his own life as he had been instructed to do.

"Foolish child! Do you think escaping me would be that easy!?" The man's voice rang out violently causing even the beast fighting outside of the cave to stop and shudder.
