forest king battle

my senses were screaming, an energy beam barreling down on me, spinning away from it while tucking my wings, I watched on as the beam exploded, using my wings as cover I was protected from the blast, the decimated appendages not enough to keep me in the air as I fell, the school was still visible for me and I knew that, no, I will kill this thing alone.

landing hard, I clumbed from the crater to face my attacker, a large deer like creature covered in glowing scales and having metal horns.

"you are fucking with the wrong person today."(syn)

I left my human form, my tentacled body leaping at the creature with my limb blades drawn.

two were deflected while the third and final one manged to peirce its hide, the thing screaming in pain as I thrust it deeper.

it bucked its hind legs as I was dragged airborne by its powerful reaction, my tentacle coming free from it's body as roared in anger, something I didn't know the large deer thing could do.

I stayed low in the bush as I heard sounds of animal combat, getting as close as I could I was amazed, a creature I'd never seem before was fighting a forest king, and it looked like the small thing was winning.

it's strange limbs that grew blades pentrated layer after layer of its scales as the thing shot bolt of energy after bolt of energy at the thing, it deftly dodging and staying away from each attack.

the tentacle creature had more agility than I'd ever seen, its body appearing graceful as it moved slowly to avoid quick attacks that nothing before it had been able to dodge.

I was mesmerized as I sat down to watch further.

I threw a blood bomb at its eyes, the explosion shockwave rocking the nearby trees and tall grasses, it's eyes now replaced by a large bloody hole as it roared in agony and rage, the fight had to going on for a while now and I was exhausted, mentally.

my stamina was fine, this was bad, my body could go longer but I'd never fought a long frown out fight before and it was showing, my movements becoming sluggish as its attacks quickened and became more random, more dangerous.

since the thing couldn't see it's strategy was now destroy everything nearby with max power in hopes it was me, not a bad idea honestly, well not at first, it's gonna wear itself out soon.

the tentacle thing looked worn as it was evading the forest kings frantic attacks, it mist be waiting for something, but what?

the forest king was attacking slower and slower, their energy attacks looked weaker too, so that was its plan, tire it out, not bad.

the large forest king opened its mouth to roar, the tentacle creature jumping up and into its mouth, disappearing while the first king gulped audibly.

minutes passed as the large scaled deer stood its ground cautiously, it didn't know what it swallowed, and it was listening for its attacker but it wouldn't have to listen long.

the tentacles and their blade tip ripped from its stomach and began traveling up and down, slicing the scaled deers under body, it's organs falling out.

the tentacle creature stabbing its heart repeatedly once it was on the ground.

once it was satisfied with what it had done it shuffled over to a pile of clothes on the ground, a blood shell forming around it and shifting until it became humanoid, a human teenager stepping out of it and dressing, the back of his dress shirt was ripped amd open.

large dark red metallic bat wings opened on his back as the boy disappeared into the sky, I must find this gray haired boy!

luckily for me I know where to start, the nearby school.

I didn't even level up after that, what a waste of effort, I even drank some of its blood hoping for a stat or passive or something but I got nothing, why did I even bother, my clothes were ripped and dirty, my health was low, my BP was slowly regenerating and was also low [BP:100/230] to be exact.

my stamina was fine, my body was efficient I guess.

and on top of that I got eaten!

it was my plan sure but I'm still pissed that even after all that the only thing I have to show for it is pristine skin and dirty clothes.

what a joke, I ahouldve run and let someone else handle it, I could've even tried to make it a blood servant, I don't know something.

my mind was clouded and racing as I flew back, landing on the now empty roof after flying for a bit, the sun now setting ad I walked down the roof access stairs.

finally down the stairs I opened the door only to find the odd girl sleeping right next to it, I nearly screwed in surprise but managed to sneak away from the odd person enough to where I could start sprinting back to my dorm.

finally making it back I unlocked the door and immediately beelined for my bed, collapsing on it and falling asleep the second my head hit the pillow.

Sydney pov..

Syn was already in the dorm when jack and I got back, he disappeared a while ago and no one could find him, I wonder what he was up to?

I waited for jack to leave for the bathroom before using my ability.

[ability mind wander activated]

my world swirled in odd colors as I entered Syn's mind, it wasn't the first time but is never a able to break through his walls, today was different those once impenetrable walls crumbled like wafers as I walked through.

his memories were racing by me fatser than I could see, I had to strain my brain to slow them and was only able to see the most recent ones, the ones of today, this was progress, I will crack the rest soon!
