The wind gently hit my face along with my hair which moved gently backward as I continued to watch from ahead at "me" performances.
I dodge and move incoming leaves that are coming toward my eyes so I can watch on without missing a single movement.
His movements were flawless but at the same time wild
It's like his style of fighting is the embodiment of wildness itself, his moves are unpredictable.
To me, his movements were powerful and beautifully well done. I could tell the only way you can truly master this is to be the embodiment of every living thing you have devoured and use their skills with such prescription it becomes your own.
"But… I'm no genius. Despite my consistent training and mastering, reaching his level seems like a dream. Hell, he's even relaxing since he knows no one poses a threat to him which widened our gap" I muttered
The more I looked on, the more I admired "me" strength. He's also using spider silk to either decapitate or slice right through them with little to no effort.
"He must've strengthened the silk in some way but the question is how? Is it perhaps the mass amount of protein he has plus the spider's, making it stronger?
Or does the silk enhance to be perfectly utilized and used like how a spider would use it?"
I once saw on the internet that spider silk usually starts as a liquid inside the body called dope but that's in the abdomen. So how is he producing them out of his fingertips?"
I was racking my brain for a bit on the possibilities before I quit due to frustration.
"Ugh, this is fucking annoying. How come some random motherfucker, who took control of my body, has better control than me!
This isn't even me no more, it's a completely different being. Also technically this isn't my body but eh"
Crunch!!!
"Hm?"
For the little time when I was distracted with my thoughts, it seemed like he already finished killing the remainder of them.
Not even a second later, everything in the surrounding area turned black as obsidian itself.
What's strange though is that the person whom I was spectating this whole time was still here. But what's even stranger is that he is looking directly at me.
I mean sure I've been discovered by my younger selves but this, this takes freaky to a whole other level.
I try to erase him from my subconscious but no matter how many times I try, he doesn't seem to go away.
It also seems like he knew what I was trying to do as a sinister simile form from his spider face.
Step! Step! Step!
He slowly began to walk toward me which led me to take a few steps back from fear.
"Is this fear I'm feeling?" I questioned
The only time I felt fear was when I almost got killed by that big cat. Not even those guys who were after my life were able to inflict terror on me.
"Ha, I guess the thing that can scare you is you. Haha," I laughed bitterly.
Slowly but surely, he finally came to a close and stopped a few feet away from me. I felt the pressure just from him standing a few feet away from me but I stood my ground and asked him a question.
"Who are you?"
….
"What do you want from me?"
….
"Answer God damn it!" I shouted with anger
Suddenly I felt tremendous pain around my abdomen and surely enough there was a hole there.
It healed in an instant since this isn't reality but I felt that pain like I'll feel in reality
Y@%'=$ ^3@k
Not a second later, I was thrown up in the air and stabbed with numerous spikes. I tried to copy him by setting an exoskeleton on my chest and I thought it would work since I could control this reality however I wish but to no avail.
Bump!
"Argh!"
I went crashing to the ground with spikes still inside my chest which made the pain even more agonizing.
I got up slowly and took out the spikes from my chest and threw them to my side. My chest healed in an instant once again.
I was boiling with anger but I couldn't let my anger take control of me.
Once I regain my focus, I transform my legs and arms to maximize my strength and speed.
Phewn!
Pa!
"Thanks for letting me rest" I said while I kicked him, of course, he dodged but at least I made contact with him.
I tried to kick him again but of course, that was a faint, and instead headbutted his spider head.
I and him stagger a few steps back from the sheer force of that headbutt we experience.
|@?n Y#U
'Man that hurt so badly. There isn't even a scratch on him while I can't say the same for me.' I thought while feeling the wound going away from my forehead
"Haha, you idiot" I laughed while touching my forehead.
It seems my little taunt made him angrier as suddenly, with no time to react, my face slammed to the floor.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
He repeatedly slammed my head over and over again which in the process broke my skull many times over.
I tried to resist by punching him or kicking him but no matter what I did, I couldn't even focus right.
'Shit! This pain fucking hurts like a motherfucker. I need to think of something.' I thought while still being slammed to the floor
'Wait floor!'
Splash!!!
A loud splash was heard and the floor was no longer there. Instead, it was replaced with a lake that I'm all too familiar with.
I and this crazy bitch went splashing into the water. I grabbed him by the foot and tried to throw him as far as away from me so I could think of another plan.
But of course, my plans never went my way as he grabbed the back of my head and proceeded to drown me.
I tried to change the area again but this time I couldn't. Everything is out of my control now.
'What am I supposed to do? I tried to remove his hands from my head but his grip is strong. So I tried to kick him as well but my movements are slow so he can dodge easily.'
I felt a burning sensation in my lungs due to the amount of water filling up my lungs. My oxygen is running out and soon I'll pass out and who knows what this thing will do to me since I can't die here even if I tried. Wait, can I even pass in here?
And just in time, my vision began to fade. Well fuck I guess I can pass out here.
'I need to get out of here before I p-pass ou-' and just like that, I somehow lost my consciousness inside my consciousness but somehow sensing I passed out, he pull me out of the water and throw me towards a tree
"Ackk!!
The pain I felt being thrown towards a tree woke me up completely and soon I saw the person who's been beating my ass up all this time standing in front of me.
Cough! Xx??
I coughed multiple times, getting the water out of my lungs and he just let me do my thing without attacking me.
"Mighty *cough* fine of you to not *cough* *cough* attack me while I'm down. *cough* *cough* *cough*"
My chest aches from coughing profusely. So annoying.
After a few minutes of getting water out of my lungs, I stood up and stared at the man face to face without questioning why I could pass out in my inner consciousness.
Him being taller than me did look a bit imitating but I shrug that off, waiting for him to make his first move.
But to my surprise, he didn't attack me at all, instead, he sat down, resting his head on a tree.
I questioned his strange behavior but said nothing of it.
T€|| m€, <h# #!# y0ų %i:e <p?
I felt he was trying to ask me a question but I couldn't even understand him
I sat down and leaned my head on the same tree.
"Sorry but I can't understand you, you gotta speak either English or the native language on the planet I'm on now." I said which tick him off a bit since he tch his tongue
"Whý #o you keep on fighting?" He asked
I moved a bit and looked up in the sky as I stared at the gems until saying "Well that's a bit complicated" I sigh before speaking again "it's to survive no matter what. Even if I have to rob or manipulate people to get what I want then I'm willing to do almost anything to survive, even if it's against you." I said while taking a peek at his face to see any facial expression but it was just blank
"Well it isn't that complicated but to me, it kinda is."
"So does that mean you will eat anything to keep that hunger at bay?" He asked another question
Oh my, I can understand him perfectly now. He's pretty good.
I looked at him and smile "Ha, of course! I will hunt and hunt until my goal is complete no matter who it is. Of course, I won't fight in a battle I won't win. Only battles that I think I can win against or I'm forced to go against." I answered full heartedly
"And what exactly is your goal?"
"Well isn't it obvious? My goal is… wait what is my goal?" I whispered the last part to myself.
What do I want to do in this new reality? With this power, I could become unstoppable but I don't only want strength, I want something else, but what is that something else?
I think and I think, trying to figure out what my goal even is. Strength is of course is one of my big goals but isn't really my main one.
Yes, of course. It is obvious what I want, it's so simple yet I never had thought of it before.
"I want a feast. Not just any feast but a feast that will make my hunger go away, a feast that will satisfy me. I want a paradise of food. A place where no matter where I go, I'm in control and will eat anything I so desire. I will be the devourer of that land"
"And how exactly are you going to get that?" He asked another question
"With strength!" I said, yelling a bit. "By consuming life forms, they will give me strength and will be at my disposal. I'll utilize them in any given way to achieve my goal." I finally answered his question.
I looked at his spider face once more and I can see he was smiling, well I think he is.
"Good, good! Your answers satisfy me young one"
"Well I'm glad you are satisfied with my answers I guess" I answered
"So what now, are we continuing fighting?" I asked him
Also a young one? How old is he and also what is he? Before I could ask he went off speaking again
"No. That's enough fighting for one day so it's time to send you back to your reality. Oh and don't worry, I made it a bit easier for you when you wake up so you won't have any problems" he said
"Wait a sec-" before I could say anything, my vision slowly started to fade. I tried to stay awake and ask him a question but to no avail. The last thing I saw was his smiling face before everything went black.
"Good luck"
