Chapter 3277  Much Harder Than Killing It

"Perfect," I said as I looked at the body of the bull in my core; it was floating with many golden lines running across it.

It is not just external, but also internal.

It is one of the new formations I had developed. It helps me cut the monsters perfectly, which is very important when you want to make the perfect dish.

I had decided to look into every aspect of the culinary, not just cooking, but also producing the things I need and also butchering the monster.

This is not an easy job when you preserve perfect energy balance in the monster parts you cut.

These tiny little things help a lot in enhancing the taste and flavor of the food.

It is such a regret that I will not be cutting this monster. I will be my clone, but there is nothing I could do about it. I will have to try my hand at the different monsters, I am sure I will be fighting many more now.

I opened my eyes and took the stealth artifact back into my storage and resumed my journey.

Two hours pa.s.sed, and four Grimms were killed. All by Nero, all Primary-III. They did not have the bloodline, which was regretful.

There are a lot of seeds I had planted that are yet to grow. They would have helped a lot with that before I leave this place. I want all my plants at Sovereign, which will be a difficult task given their numbers, but I felt like it is something I could achieve it.

Hun!

A few more minutes pa.s.sed, and I had found what I had been looking for, Sovereign and the one with the bloodline.

It is a Mid-Sovereign.

I could see its aura through Nero"s eyes; it was hiding it through stealth method, but to me, it is clear as day. I want to walk away, but instead, I found myself taking steps toward it.

A few minutes pa.s.sed, and I had loosened my aura a little. Enough that it could sense it, but not enough. It would suspect anything.

A minute and a half pa.s.sed when suddenly stopped and looked in my direction. Seeing that, a smile couldn"t help but appear on my face.

I am excited, and it is not about the bloodline, but about the prospect of getting information. I have fought against many Primary-III, and they have provided me with some information, but even they did not have a complete.

It is the same with the Sovereign inside the castle. They entered as Primary-III in the castle, before leveling up.

It kept looking at me for a few seconds before a smile appeared on its face and it came toward me, four minutes later it appeared in front of me and I brought an appropriate shock on my face.

"Grimm," I said as I brought out my sword. "Human," it said and grinned, before throwing the stealth artifact.

"It wouldn"t be possible, let me go, right?" I asked hesitantly as I saw In front of me, Rock Horned Crockman. It looked like a normal Crockman, except for rocky lines flowing over its green scales and the ways to retreat. "No, my purpose is to kill you all natives and since you dare to come here, I will kill you all," it said, and it came at me.

In front of me, Rock Horned Crockman. It looked like a normal Crockman, except for rocky lines flowing over its green scales and its two curved horns.

In its hand is a rusty ax; it looked like it had been buried in the earth for thousands of years and excavated not long ago.

It is not the case; the ax is a powerful weapon. It is to feel the great power projecting through it.

"Die!" it shouted and swung its ax at me.

Burst 70%!

I activated the burst at 70%, a less than, I would not be able to counter its attack.

As the power filled me, I swung my sword at it. Unlike its ax, which is covered in dark green bloodline energy, mine had a simple layer of transparent energy covering it.

It looked like it would be swallowed by the bloodline energy in an instant.

Clang!

Our weapons clashed, and a powerful one came out. It was so powerful that it had destroyed everything around me, including around me, before it got absorbed by the stealth artifact.

I shook by the attack but did not take a step back. It surprised it, but soon the smile on its face returned.

Though, now it had a killing intent in it.

Clang Clang Clang

It didn"t say anything and instead attack again and again, trying to push me back, but I held on to my place while defending against its attacks.

"You are not weak. Killing you would be fun," it said as it increased the power behind its attacks.

"You may be stronger than me, but you are not strong enough to kill me," I replied, and a grin appeared on its face, filled with anger and killing intent in it.

I have so many questions, but I am not in a hurry to ask them to it. If I ask it now, it will not answer. I will have to fight it more, before asking the questions.

A little more than a minute pa.s.sed when suddenly, it jumped back, and I didn"t attack. I had sensed before it, but I wanted to see how long it took to react to it; it reacted pretty quickly.

There is a monster, entered the edge of a stealth field. It is powerful enough that both of us won"t like to fight it.

The monster had sensed something strange as it entered the stealth field. It had spread its soul sense further, but it did not discover us. However, it had stayed on its spot for more than a minute before it moved out of the field.

Even then, we did not move for more than three and a half minutes, as the monster had remained close.

"It left," said the Rock Horned Crockman and aura blasted off its body, as it come at me. I harnessed the power of the burst at 80% and moved to defend against its attacks.

Clang!

Our swords clashed again, and this time, I barely shook. "It seemed like I had been needlessly scared of you. You are not as strong as I thought as I thought, you are," I said to it.

It seemed to have hit the nerve. A volcano of rage seemed to have exploded in its eyes.

"I will kill you," it shouted and attacked me with its eyes full of rage. I didn"t hold back either and harnessed more power and went to clash against it.

It is not just the taunt; what I had said had some truth in it.

It is powerful, and I had not underestimated it, but I had underestimated myself. I am powerful enough that I could kill it. If I used every bit of my power and some factors worked with me.

I have won the battles with worse chances. So, I will fight to kill it and will also try to get some answers to my questions.

Which, I think, would be a much harder job than killing it.
