Chapter 25: The Primordial Source's Decision
The Tempest Wolf was also caught off guard, and fearful, hence why it failed to react in time.
For by the time it's consciousness registered everything, it's mouth had already bitten into a soft, thin and delicate long arm of a woman.
While it felt pain on the left side of its neck, where from the corner of its eyes, it could see a thin, long finger stabbed deep into it.
"Shh~"
A gentle voice drifted into its ears, one so heavenly, it lulled the already dying Tempest Wolf to tranquility, making it stop its twitching.
A voice reminiscent of the voice of death.
Meanwhile, the woman whom just so happened to be Esther, did not move, nor change her posture.
Her legs had locked the Tempest Wolf, and pinned it down. While her left arm was bit by it, to shut it up from making any sounds.
Of course, it was painful, yet from her expression, and her dead-like gray eyes, she did not seem to register the pain yet.
And lastly, her middle finger had been used by her, to piece deeply into the Tempest Wolf's neck. Making sure it died a peaceful death.
It was not yet dead though, and Esther was well aware of that. The predator was just weak, and slowly being drained of its energy and life force.
"..."
She hurriedly stood up and dragged the Tempest Wolf into the bush she just came out of, and made sure it was well hidden. Before cutting off its tail, and retreating with it.
She did not even tend to teh wound.
A few seconds have passed, and the Thunder Eagle should be coming back. And after another round, it would notice the sudden disappearance of the Tempest Wolf.
And that, was more than enough time for the Queen of Assassins to make her move.
She hurriedly dashed, at insane peak human speed, towards yet another bush.
Her every step was light, and airy. As if she never took a step to begin with. Hence it would be difficult to track her down.
She then easily blended into the bush, making sure that not even a single leaf was out of place. It was a skill that was purely inhuman, yet she did it so naturally.
It was not even an Ability.
But pure talent.
"..."
A moment later, the Thunder Wolf flew past the area, its gaze watching the ground with careful attention as always.
"???"
It then realized the sudden disappearance of the Tempest Wolf. At first, it thought nothing of it and continued to survey the environment.
Thinking that the Tempest Wolf was somewhere ahead. Pity, even after a complete round of survey, no signs of its companion could be felt.
The Thunder Eagle was now extra careful, and surveyed the ground with even more attention and caution.
For the prey to kill one of its own so silently and swiftly, brought nothing but chills and fear to the King of the Skies.
Such abilities were unheard of even to itself.
A moment later, under its extra careful scrutiny, the Thunder Eagle saw a few leafs on the ground near a bush.
The number was a bit too high, making it suspicious that they were blown off by the wind.
"..."
When it followed over from there, going a bit forward, it saw a very feint scratch on a nearby tree. It was quite feint, yet visible, as if the person was quite in the rush and was careful of their actions.
A bit further from there, everything was fine.
It made the Thunder Eagle frown, as it believed it might have lost the target.
Yet a bit further away, it saw a broken branch. It was not much of a clue, but it took it. And a bit more ahead, it saw... blood.
...!!!
The blood was from a hidden bush, thus making it hard to tell what was bleeding from within. Especially from such a high stand point.
When the Thunder Eagle tried to squint its eyes to see better, no clue was revealed. Making it question whether it had to lower its altitude to verify or not.
But it should not.
The target was unpredictable, and nobody knew what would happen to it if it lowered its height.
"Owoo... Ow, Owoo..."
Yet at this moment, from a nearby bush, a feint cry of a wolf could be heard. Moments later, a wolf tail brushed in and out of the back of the bush, showing both caution and excitement.
This immediately triggered the Thunder Eagle to come to a certain conclusion.
The Tempest Wolf had hidden as it felt the presence of the prey. And then, both sneaked up on each other, and the both were wounded.
The prey hid away, as well as the Tempest Wolf, none trying to show weakness to the other. But now, as the Tempest Wolf felt its presence, it cried out for help!!
These were the thoughts of the Thunder Eagle, and it immediately focused its attention towards the Bush were red blood was flowing out.
Feeling killing intent directed at it, the bush where blood was flowing out slightly trembled. A reaction that the person within, felt the killing intent directed at them.
Completely sure of its guesses, the Thunder Eagle burst out at frightening speed, like a bolt of lightning dashing towards the ground at insane speed.
Yet what was even faster, was a sharp kneedle covered by wind strongly rotating clockwise, making it also rotate, and giving it more piecing power.
The needle immediately hit the Thunder Eagle upon the head, with clear accuracy, dulling its speed and the lightning flashing around its body.
It then fell down before it could even reach the bush it was intending to attack.
...
Moments later, from the bush with a tail wagging back and forth, a beautiful woman with slightly above average looks walked out.
She held a wolf tail on her hand, and another needle on her other. Her hair was let loose, making her seem more than just above average in terms of charm.
With her hair down, she was quite beautiful.
But what was most striking, would be her gray eyes of no emotions. Just extreme coldness flowing within, like the River of Styx.
From the other bush with flowing blood, a wolf could be seen. It's stomach was opened up revealing its organs, and painting the grass red with its blood.
"..."
Esther though, did not take any of this into consideration. There was still the last opponent that she had to deal with, whom, likewise was humanoid like herself.
It was a beautiful humanoid being, with extreme charm and devilishly handsome looks. He was here all alone, and abruptly materialized out of the shadows before her.
He then clapped his hands, and marveled at the art of assassination of Esther. Even he had to admit, her calculations, her every move, her attitude... were extremely cold.
And ruthless.
*** The Primordial Source (TPS) ***
We have woken up.
From deep slumber, we have woken up. And now, we are to do the duties our masters bestowed upon us, and build up a ladder leading up to the gates of an untouchable Era.
But for that, our first step is to multiply, invade all the Cosmologies, and first ascend them to greater heights than they have attained.
Once the Cosmologies evolve to a higher grade, this will trigger the Supreme Dimensions and the Outer Realms to follow suite, transcending themselves to greater heights.
Then ultimately, leading to this entire Existential Facade to evolve as well.
[ ... ]
Yet even then, we still have to begin at the very bottom of the rung. Where our initial plan was to first give these residents of this world the chance to welcome a new Era.
Step by step, we would usher them into the Genesis Era, and begin the Age of Ascension.
As the most unique world of this Cosmology, it is bound to be the easiest, and most efficient way for us to ascend to a higher level of use as well.
We would first get all these residents to accept us, which will trigger us to attain our first form. That would allow us to initiate the appearance of Unique Professions.
This alone will make this world a unique world, and make the path to godhood but a simple step. More deities would appear, and with more deities appearing, more providence shall spread.
Hence more Providence for us to absorb.
That would then initiate our second form. We would then add up the abstract concept of the Forbidden Professions and artifacts, opening the path of great power.
More godly beings would appear, and more would likewise fall. The world will intiates its expansion into something grander, and we would soon evolve again.
With the third form, we could soon easily ascend over countless Universal Laws, and touch upon the boundary of Reality and its Natural Laws.
We could open up paths and legacies to unknown powers, opening the Age of Divinity.
If we succeed in such a step, we would usher in a complete new age of power, and also obtain our forth form.
The followers and believers of the Seven Creators of this Cosmology might be problematic to handle, but as long as things go as we plan, and obtain our seventh form, everything would be okay.
