Capítulo 6: CHAPTER 6 - FIRST BLOOD
"Umm… mister…?"Don hesitated.
"Sen…my name is Sen"
"Mister Sen, are you perhaps planning on going to the city?"
"Yes," he answered blandly but did not bother to give an explanation. Having gotten what he came here for, Sen stood up and made his way into the city, but before he could leave the bond fire range, he saw a large bag near the three people's baggage. Normally he would not care, but that piece of cloth was wrapped around something that was bleeding.
Sen immediately enhanced his smell and vision and discovered that whatever was rolled in there was definitely human-like. Suddenly, his human side raged as he stared at the three people.
Oblivious to the danger they were in, Don saw Sen's eyes drift towards their baggage and approached it full of smiles as if trying to curry favor. "So big brother Sen is interested in this?" he crudely unwrapped the cloth, revealing four dead bodies.
"This is?" Sen asked with a gloomy voice, trying to suppress whatever it is stirring his blood.
"These are elves, you see brother Sen, we were sent here on a mission by a noble. Recently elven meat was getting scarce in the market since the creatures were hiding very deep in the forest"
Kara and Lank understood what their leader was getting at, he was trying to get more elemental powder in exchange for the meat since Sen seemed not to know anything of their value. So the two of them also chimed in the conversation.
"Yes that's right. Right now, elf meat is so rare that only some nobles enjoy it. That's even the reason why Grandor kingdom is still at war with Azurite kingdom and Flasa kingdom since these two have prohibited eating elf meat and just kept them as slaves, not selling any to Grandor."
"And that's not all, currently, elves have settled in the inner region of the shattered forest and joined hands with the despicable Drows to resist us humans" Don laughed.
"Disgusting creatures, they should just make us - elves hunters' job, easier and deliver themselves to our pla…" Kara hadn't even finished talking when a red string appeared on her throat.
Two seconds later, a head fell on the ground and Sen disappeared. Lank who still did not drop his guard down, was momentarily startled as he tried to comprehend what just happened. He looked in Sen's direction but no one was there.
"Kara!" Don shouted in panic, was about to give Lank an order when suddenly Lank's body was cleaved in half and fell right on Don.
"Who sent you on this mission?" Sen asked with a dark face.
By this time, Don finally saw the face of terror, a warm liquid passed between his legs as he stared at the creature standing in the moonlight. The enlarged fingernails on the hand were covered with a golden energy hue and sticky blood of his two friends. He now understood in that split second that this Sen was enraged for the three elves and one drow they killed.
"D…do…don't kill me please…I have a family"
Sen pointed at the four bodies, "they had a family too….One last time, who sent you on that mission?"
Sen of course had no intention of seeking revenge on their part. Even when he was a human at heart, the reason he acted so violently he knew very well is because of his race's memories.
"L…lo…lord…Zacharias" Don stuttered, "he's the brother of marchioness Elaila from the capital"
"Zacharias ha? Better for him not to cross paths with me anytime soon" Sen declared with a dark, terrifying expression, he looked at the shivering Don who really wet himself and slashed with his enlarged fingers, ending his life.
As soon as Don's body hit the ground, Sen regained consciousness. That was not him! It was this new body. The anger, cruelty, and savagery he just showed all came from the instincts of this body.
It was then that Sen realized that his new body was changing the way he was thinking. Like memories of this bloodline slowly infecting his mind. He could still feel it.
Upon coming to this realization, Sen sat down cross-legged and focused his energy on his brain.
"Aack!"
A sharp shriek escaped his mouth. His brain felt like acid waiting to melt his head. But Sen was fully conscious,
He fought whatever it is creeping on his brain until all of his energy reserve was depleted and he sat on the ground panting for breath.
He did it! He had succeeded in repelling that thing and creating a mental shield around both his brain and heart. That shield, however, is not completely immune as he could feel it only repelling about 95%.
Currently, that bloodline memories are strong, in order to repel them completely and not succumb to a murderous rage, his own mental energy needs to be on par.
However, body enhancement art only has a few skills of mental energy bending. In order to master mental energy, he needs specialized manuals which he has no idea where to find.
'One step at a time' he sighed and the pitiful dead bodies of the elves and the drows caught his attention.
He burned the four bodies with a small speck of green fire that spread and disintegrated them to ashes before letting the wind carry them far away while leaving the bodies of the three elves hunters to rot.
That was his first magic art – Hell-Fire. Sen acquired it from a region in LR called The Howling Abyss. This bright green fire is supposed to incinerate everything on its path and cannot be extinguished.
when hellfire art grows a bot stronger,r he'll be able to damage the soul of the target with it. but now, it was only enough to take care of the physical bodies. sen felt the need to at least give them a proper cremation.
Strangely enough, a pendant managed to survive his hellfire unscathed. He wanted to take something from their bodies to take back to their families should he ever find any, but they wore no accessories on them. But now one of them actually had this stone pendant on them and he failed to notice it.
the pendant was where the young female drow body was.
Thinking about it, Sen threw it in his inventory and took out another item. This one is similar to the linguistic orb from before, only the former is red while the latter is purple.
"Eating elves huh..." Sen looked at the direction of the capital city the three told him about "…I really don't like this place" he said with a grin and crushed a small stone between his finger.
'crack'
His pale skin started to twist and bones began to dislocate in a gruesome manner. A few seconds of this scene and Sen turned into the previous female drow with the blue-ish skin and silver hair. He put the pendant around his neck and stood up.
"Now let's go meet me some elves…"
sen didn't notice, however, that a green light escaped Don's dead body, flying far away.
