I am definitely in some sort of madman test dungeon ain't I?
I looked around ,there were no open ways to go out. Why had that beast teleported me here then?
It could just teleport me to the surface….or it could be as if it doesn't know the exact coordinate to teleport me ,like it could have never seen the sun for millennia?
Yes that could be it,afterall that beast had literally bought me with its fancy pale blue fairy mist style at me,and even restricted my motion and yet it brought me to itself in that cavity.
In conclusion that beast can use that same guide vision,and even obscure its body in a pitch black cover and still interact with me, and show me about erlis and the archetypes it could be converted into like fire,water,wind,earth and lightning.
But why hadn't the beast directly teleported me to itself?...Of course I am an idiot,why would the beast who wants to teach me something just peekaboo teleport me instantly.
It could just do the fancy thing to make an image to actually interact with me while anonymising itself and for why it could have not known about the surface world could be because of the time it could have spent in this cave.
From what I know the stalagmites and stalactites that normally are in caves are small and take more than 10 human lifetimes to grow noticeably.
Considering that those stalactites and stalagmites were large enough and that normally those take form like 10cm per thousands of years,and the stalactite that killed that juvenile beast cub was almost the same height as me.
I was 172cm last time I checked,that was before awakening in this world,but that stalactite was thick enough like 30-40 centimetres.
That is enough to roughly say that, that guillotine is probably older than my bloodline,to like 15 thousand to 70 thousand years old and the growth rate changes.
The archaic could be much older than the stalactite formation ever began or it could be that somehow the archaic came to the cave .No way,if the archaic came to that cave then it should know the way up…..
Why am I an idiot …
I should know that millennials can change many things,there's definitely no way that anyone would go into isolation for that long…
Yeah unless they can actually handle isolation enough that can drive anyone unless they have the drive that wouldn't let them break down.
I understand now,the archaic must've been sealed….
Suddenly I heard a familiar growl similar to that cub I had faced before… .Only this time it sounds active,not under starving.I looked behind to see the cub I fought.It rushed toward me in excitement.
I know that I can't outrun it but I can stall.The energy guided vision activated allowing me to perceive energy again.
I ran …. I know I can't run as much and it will wear me down in minutes for sprinting away.
I tried to focus on what could help me fight it….hm… .I took a glance at it and just then it opened its maw.Its lower jaw even splitted too,thats a blitzwolfer right there.
Its fur,it looked fine and shiny in contrast but gave me the idea for what the blazing determination I can do! Aand That's a Fireball!
Suddenly the cub stopped chasing and sat down eerily.I understood its not resting,but rather waiting for me let my guard down,wait its rubbing to itself?
Those little flickers…they are the sparks of static electricity.My eyes widened by the realisation I got.
It will ram into me and use the large static to paralyse my muscles to provide itself an easy breakfast?or dinner?
I started to remember about how the archaic had made me experience about those ,and fire archetype...it made realise that it can be anchored to one of my emotions ..warmth , I felt warmth when I came closer to that flame.
I exhaled and then inhaled strongly as I cleared my mind with the focus. My Eyes locked in concentration as my hand begun to sweat as I concentrated..it is getting difficult without keeping my hand from burning....
I know..
I had little time that even then concentrating on one point is going to be difficult..no wait, the finger pistol gesture! I can concentrate on it as if it's the bullet of a gun....the with my vision,the warm energy began to clump up enough that my pointer finger began feeling sweaty.I can't waste this moment ,else I'll lose it,I'll lose my life.
The cub glowed with the random electrical arc moving by,with the eerie paw preparation for a charge.
My fireball or rather the finger pistol fire bullet was ready to launch.
Akh!
A blinding moment occurred to my eyes,that was a flare it used blinding my eyes.
I fired the bullet forward,where i knew the cub was.A straight is more efficient for it to kill,for me its more efficient ,as it will die.
Even then I smelt the burning meat just in a few seconds. My eyes restabilised allowing me to see the burning body of the cub,its skin unharmed,its looks right now? It had hit the snout while the fur seemed to burn much faster its body with the burned fur looked cooked.It was dead obviously.
I plopped down in exhaustion.With my intrusive thoughts coming up i thought of cutting it but how?wind…Ah yes the effective method.
