"Have you heard the stories some of those weaker idiots are telling themselves?" A figure with blue-colored skin asked while laughing about his own words.
Its head was formed like a hammerhead and the laugh sounded very weird since its head touched the back every time it opened its mouth wide.
And that made a metallic clang every time it laughed.
That was probably also because its back was rather hunched and the spot at its back was protected by a thick armor made of scales.
That was the source of the clangs.
"What do I care what they are talking?", answered a rather smaller figure back.
Compared to the first guy that was around 4 meters tall, the other figure was only 2 meters in size.
And its body was rather slim and boney. That made a rather striking contrast to the other guy being much bulkier and larger.
The hammerhead smirked a little. "Are you getting soft? I heard it is hunting in your territory at the moment."
"Really now...Is that new Adjuchas that suicidal? Looks like it was lucky that I haven't met it yet. Has it even reached our stage or is it still a mad beast?"
The interest was triggered and the smaller being that answered moved from its spot on some rock.
One could see a white-colored tail now move around at its back. It was rather noticable from the yellowish green fur it had on the rest of its body.
"From the ones that saw it, it seems that it has an intellect already."
"The ones that saw it?", asked the monkey-like Adjuchas back.
"Apparently everyone that tried to kill it, became food. How pathetic, don't you agree?"
"Wait, we are not talking about that guy that has such a spiritual pressure that kills most of the low life around itself, right?"
"Of course not. Though that guy is also a loner from my information."
"What the hell is going on. Why are such ridiculous bastards running around here in this region.", grumbled the monkey somewhat.
"Huh? Are you getting afraid now or something?"
The monkey stayed silent. "Karraka, I knew you aren't the brightest but don't think I am as stupid as you. The fact that there is no survivor from fights says a lot. That new guy is dangerous. We need to find out how much..."
The monkey Adjuchas thought about something after his words. "I wonder if we can somehow manage to let them meet each other. That new one and the monster I mean..."
"Oh! You mean so we can grab the corpse of that new guy. After all, the monster always leaves the corpses lying around for some reason. Wow, what a great idea. I even know where to find that loner. He is near the area where that panther is hunting with his companions."
"That was actually not what I had in mind...Grimmjow, huh? Well, this is getting annoying. The last time I saw that guy I beat the hell out of him but now...I heard he became rather powerful."
The hammerhead called Karraka snorted. "He is only babysitting those weaklings. Instead of concentrating to get more powerful he is dragging them along the whole time. Do you really believe someone like that is going to become more powerful? Don't tell me you truly believe that, Saarmon."
Saarmon fixated his brown colored eyes on Karraka. Then an invincible pressure started building around him. "You really start to annoy me. Who told you that you can call me by my name? Why are you even here? Are you not just trying to entice me to help you kill one of them in the end? You seem to have become greedy."
The hammerhead started to form an evil grin on his face and his spiritual pressure also skyrocketed.
"I want that new bastard gone. He actually dared and killed a precious underling of mine. But sadly I may not be enough. That is also why I came here to get your cooperation..." The tone in its voice changes a lot as if a different person was talking now. These two seemed to play some little charade and finally showed their true colors and hostility against each other.
"And you think you just could get here and ask me nicely without me killing you? I still remember your own little trespassing, you know?"
"It is in the interest of us both, no? If we let those young bloods run around without punishment then how would we look? We are the leaders of our groups after all. It is time that we act upon it."
Saarmon looked at him and then smiled as well. "Fine, get that new Adjuchas and I will go and visit that little kitten. It's about time I talked with him about a few new rules."
The hammerhead laughed again and actually just started to stomp away. After a short distance, it jumped into the sand and disappeared.
The monkey Adjuchas also wasn't idle and looked in a certain direction. Then he whistled and a few other Hollows appeared that were of various rank from normal weak Hollow to other Adjuchas.
"My friends, it is about time we go to war. Get everyone ready!"
------
In another place, the wolf was currently lying on top of a dead tree trunk. But to be precise this trunk was actually the top of a humongous tree that was growing beneath the sand in darker places on a lower level.
But because the wolf enjoyed the eclipsing moon that was everpresent on this level it stayed here. It felt refreshed and energized by it so it could ignore the constant threat of other beings that were here.
Not that any of them was an actual threat for him or else he would probably have been dead long ago.
And when he gets hungry he would go to the lower levels to hunt. Prey up here was rather scarce and had no real benefit besides only filling his hunger for a battle sometimes.
Yes, sometimes it just hungered for a fight. It wondered why it was like that.
Suddenly it picked up some movements nearby and opened its yellow golden eyes and looked into that direction with its head.
Looking at it the mask it had was even smaller now and barely covered the top of its upper jaw.
Now others even could differentiate it more easily since a crescent-shaped moon with a diamond shape above it decorated its forehead in a deep blue color on the otherwise white beastly mask.
Its gaze waited for the guest.
Urgh, naming things is as hard as ever. Don't even like it xD Any ideas on how to name the bulky hammerhead and monkey Adjucha?
