Chapter 1076 The White Ghoul.
Ragnarok said with some bitterness, "That should have been mine."
The prize is there to take but he didn't go forward to take it. Instead, he watched from a safe distance.
The once beautiful Primogenitor now has dark skin has patches of red, blue, and brown bruises. The assortment of bruises is all Ragnarok needed to know of how much this Primogenitor has suffered. Its suffering had reached the point where it couldn't heal all the injuries that were inflicted on it.
The white ghoul turned to regard Ragnarok. The two black orbs that it uses as eyes were locked onto him. Then it shook the Primogenitor in its hand as if to taunt him to come and take it. There were no pupils or other features in those black eyes but Ragnarok could sense ridicule in them.
Ragnarok didn't take the bait. He was more concerned about the intelligence of the white ghoul. Other ghouls don't do anything apart from hunting and killing with a single minded focus. But this one seems smart enough to do other things.
It sneered at him. Then it opened its mouth wide. Its mouth enlarged into a large maw with several circular rows of teeth. But it didn't bite down. It pushed the Primogenitor whole into its mouth with its two hands. The Primogenitor was crushed by the rows of teeth and swallowed whole.
Ragnarok watched as the white ghoul stuffed its face. The Primogenitor struggled ineffectively. It kicked its feet and tried to stop its ugly fate. But it was like a child struggling ineffectively against a strong adult.
The white ghoul swallowed it whole and crunched it up. Then the Ghoul snarled at him. He turned around and ran immediately. Any Ghoul is trouble that he doesn't want anything to do with. This white Ghoul is something else. It is something more dangerous. It is not trouble. It is lethal trouble.
lightsnοvεl He has seen it do terrible things. What he has seen of the white Ghoul's capabilities has truly made him afraid for his life. He won't mess with it like he did with one of the Ghouls. That experience is already enough to tell him how badly it will end if he messes with something that serves as a warp beacon to other Ghouls. He will be surrounded instantly if that ghoul gets near him.
Someone chose that moment when he was fleeing for his life to chat him up.
"I respect you Ragnarok. You have done a lot for the plane and you are also a Warrog. You may be unruly and disrespectful, but you have been helpful in your own way. So I will do you a favor. Stay out of our way."
Ragnarok felt like rolling his eyes. He didn't roll his eyes because if he did, he might become blind and retarded because of the amount of ridicule that he has for Rinoz. His eyes might roll too far into his head.
"She just can't help it, can she?" He asked himself.
She is calling to warn him about something he doesn't even know about. It is as if she is looking for every reason to call him. If he didn't know any better, he would think she was in love with him and not simply stupid.
"Then again, there is no reason why she can't be both. Love does make people stupid and only stupid people fall in love. I should not underestimate her. There must have been something in her that the will of the plane saw. She might have great potential for stupidity."
So he just sighed and asked her, "What is it this time around? What have I done wrong?"
Rinoz replied with a haughty tone. "I appreciate what you have done for the plane. But you should stop now. Stop hunting the Vampires. You are weakening the ghouls that way. No lion likes to have their food taken from them. If you continue to steal food from the ghouls, then you must be prepared to face the wrath of the lions. I won't hold the ghouls back from hunting you anymore."
Then she cut off the call.
"What is going on?" Ragnarok asked in confusion.
He is completely bewildered. He has a lot more questions now.
"What did she mean by "Stay out of our way?" and what does "I won't hold the Ghouls back from hunting you anymore?"
He understands that she called to warn him or maybe it was a threat. It seems to him that she called him to brag but he doesn't where she gets her confidence from or the source of the leverage for what she asked of him.
Are the Ghouls and her working together now? Or even worse, can she control or influence the ghouls in any way? If she does have the leverage that she claims to have, then she will be a terrible foe to deal with.
"That won't stop me though. I never respond to the threat of violence. Only true strength can make me capitulate."
He decided not to listen to her. He can't just become afraid of her because of what she said. If he does that, then anyone can just tell him off. He has to see something tangible about the threat that she poses to him before he will take her seriously. He hasn't seen that yet so he will continue to hunt Primogenitors. Then he will hunt and kill her.
If he were that easy to threaten then he would have capitulated to the threats of the demon god and the fountain of life. He didn't listen to them and he won't listen to her either.

Far Away On The Surface.
Fenrir looked worried. That's because he is very worried. Rinoz has amassed a very powerful force but he can't help but be worried. He took one look at the so-called army that Rinoz is so proud of and he couldn't help but have his stomach recoil in fear, apprehension, and disgust. This is a bigger and more powerful army than the army of Warrogs but it doesn't fill him with confidence.
