Prime Evolver System - Chapter 59

Looking at this strange, monstrous human, the tiger could barely contain his unadulterated rage could barely be contained anymore. This… This thing, this insignificant creature, this ant dared to strike at this heavenly ruler!

Anger rose to new heights in his heart as it viciously eyed this annoying bug. It decided to no longer play with it, it was time to show why he was crowned as the king!

The tiger roared once again, its bellowing cry exploded, releasing shock waves into the air. Energy began to converse towards it in such a shocking amount the air itself was turning blurry, foggy by the sudden density.

The energy continued to build feeding into the magical, purple fire that covered the beast’s body, making the flickering flames soar to greater heights, burn with even higher intensity.

A few seconds passed as the Tiger stood still, enjoying as the energy continued to gather before it finally made a move. It turned to face the hateful human that hurt its proud and majestic look and slowly opened its mouth.

His mouth ajar, it sucked on the air, forcing the dense air to gather into a singular point inside its agape jaws. The suction was fierce, the energy soon formed a visible, colorless opaque ball of energy.

The tiger continued to gather the energy forming this elusive ball of mystical energy with rapid speeds whilst keeping an eye on the haughtily eying human. The heavenly beast wasn’t sure why it was standing still, seeming not to care about its channeled attack, but it didn’t bother with it too much. After all, if the stupid human will not try to interrupt, he would soon face the full wrath of this king’s might.

Still, the tiger kept its awareness on the stoically standing and smirking enemy whilst he focused on completing the attack.

A few seconds passed as the energy steadily converged into the now baseball-sized swirling orb-like mass of colorless energy. Feeling that it was about to reach the threshold that it could control, the tiger suddenly stopped gathering energy and twitched its flaming body.

In the next instant, a purple flare soared up from the sea of flames, and crashed into the swirling orb, causing its color to shift from the previous emptiness to the same purplish hue as its body. Ripples spread on the orb’s surface mimicking the same inferno that dominated the Violet Flame Tiger’s massive body.

Finally, the beast jerked its head up, as it spat out the flaming orb, aiming it towards the standing human.

Like a massive bullet fired from a sniper rifle, the violet fireball whistled through the air, arriving at the human in a single instant, colliding with his already raised right limb and releasing the abundant amount of energy inside it with a giant explosion of force.

The blast kicked off a huge amount of dust and dirt from the ground, tore several trees, and even shook the ground itself. For several moments nothing could be seen, besides a thick cloud that covered the entire battlefield.

Even the heavenly beast, the tiger itself wasn’t completely safe from its own attack. His flaming body after using up all of its energy returned to normal, its fur was burnt, its majestic look was replaced by a disheveled one.

It heaved heavily, as the attack took not just an abundant amount of energy and concentration but also a massive amount of its stamina. It was weary, tired, as it eyed in front of itself, scanning the scene to find the sight of its first prey, the female, and also, obviously that hateful bastard.

Seconds passed, forming a full minute before the thick cloud began to disperse, causing another shocking sight to the majestic creature of this hidden, mysterious forest.

A silhouette could be seen still standing in the hazy fog. The hateful thing, the annoying human that he thought to be merely a powerless ant managed to block its attack? How dare he?!

The tiger’s eyes went wide as it looked at the figure as it was slowly revealed as the cloud continued to disperse and fade.

Just like itself, he didn’t come out of this clash unscathed. His black garment, his attire was torn to shreds, his skin was covered with burn marks, yet, and this was the most annoying about the whole ordeal, it was still looking with those condemning double-colored eyes and wide, arrogant smirk.

The man shook his right hand, lowering it as he spoke. His tone di-synchronous, two voices spoke at the same time with the same disdain and contempt.

“That was it? The attack that you were so proud of?” He haughtily laughed, spitting a bloodied saliva on the ground with a frown in the next moment.

“Pathetic. There should be a vast difference in our strength, yet this was all you could muster? Did the heavenly beasts of this era grow this pitiful? Where’s your pride? This is all you can utilize from your bloodline?”

Being a heavenly beast, with an also vastly higher level of power stage, the tiger had a much higher level of intelligence. Unlike normal beasts, even magical ones, the tiger, though it could not speak, could easily understand human language and even react to it.

Hearing the words of this hateful creature, it frowned, his furry face formed a scowl. Still, it did not lounge into a berserk state. Seeing how it withstood such a massive blast of its energy, it now varyed of it.

It entered a guarded state, eyeing every movement, every minute action from It, ready to form an appropriate response even the faintest signs of danger.

“You know… If this is your absolute best…” Lucien/Pravitas spoke again, slowly raising his right appendage once more. His claws raised to the sky, his grin giving an ominous feel as he looked at the tiger once more. “… then I think your heritage, your bloodline will have a better future with me!”

Suddenly he dashed forward, charging at the tiger once more. His speed was swift, crossing the small distance in a mere second, sending a right-winged swipe with the clawed right arm once again.

Although the strike was swift, the tiger was more than ready to react to it. It snarled with disdain, as it instantly roared, releasing a shockwave of energy, instantly deflecting the human’s blow and throwing his measly body away.

At the same time, it raised its paws and swiped forward, counterattacking in the same motion.

Unfortunately for the Lucien/Pravitas combo, whilst they were expecting a response, they still underestimated the reserves of a Heavenly Beast. They couldn’t react to the blast and were helplessly flung away, causing them to not be able to completely avoid the incoming claws of the tiger.

Lucien jerked his body, twisting it to the side as much as he could, but all he could muster was to slightly shift its position and avoid one of the claws, and deflect the brunt of the right paw. Still, his skin was torn and even some of his flesh was ripped as the huge paw gave him a brutal memento.. A huge, ugly, and bloody claw mark could be seen running across his chest, the added power sent him tumbling further away, crashing violently into the ground several yards away.
