Chapter 13

Suddenly, the beast let out a silent roar in my direction, then looked suspiciously at the three humans in front of it who carried the scent of its own kind.

The three of them exchanged a hand signal—strike first to gain the upper hand. If their strength were converted to beast levels, Emily Carter would barely count as just reaching C-rank, but she wasn’t an attack type. As for William Clark’s MN and Grace Bennett’s Ice Queen, they hadn’t even reached C-rank yet. They were facing a powerful A-rank beast, and had no other choice.

The Saintess, who had always appeared in a spatial state, was the first to launch a psychic attack. This was her offensive ability, but in truth, it could only serve as a distraction. A B-rank interference would only make the beast even angrier.

The Ice Queen’s freezing air surged toward the beast—the same chill that had nearly killed me earlier—but this time, it dissipated before even reaching the beast. MN’s bionic energy body’s attack was even more feeble, completely ineffective. The powerful beast itself contained immense energy; such a weak impact was nothing more than scratching an itch through a boot.

Their attacks enraged the beast. With a thunderous swipe of its claw, it struck the ground, and a bolt of lightning crashed down from the sky!

Boom~!

The three of them were blasted away on the spot, and even I, far away, was nearly knocked unconscious! This was truly a demon from hell—today is just not my day, I really shouldn’t have left the house!

The beast’s fury was not appeased by its previous strike. Its blood-red eyes flashed, and the paths of the three beings were completely under its control.

“Hit the jackpot today—it’s a thunder beast that can control lightning.” William Clark wore a look of utter despair. It seemed they were about to become the thunder beast’s delicacy. The unique energy of the new humans was the favorite treat of all kinds of beasts. However, the stronger the beast, the greater the resistance it faced crossing subspace. What went wrong today? Was God dozing off?

The three of them could see the helplessness in each other’s eyes and completely gave up on attacking, instead dashing toward me. It looked like they wanted to take me and escape through the woods!

Howl~~~

The beast let out a long howl and inhaled sharply. A series of thunderclaps followed, blasting away a corner of the school building. The three of them were horrified to find that both their bodies and their envoys were firmly sucked in, flying helplessly through the air.

Wuwu, but why was I, who was so far away, flying even faster!!!

Maybe because the delicacy was almost within reach, the beast seemed unusually excited. Only then did I notice it actually had a long tail.

“Boss!” In midair, William Clark realized things were bad and slapped MN, sending a beam of light shooting toward the beast. Unfortunately, it only made the beast sway a little; the attack was too weak. His MN was also an ability type, not a power type.

Only Grace Bennett’s Ice Queen was somewhere in between, but her freezing air was only good enough to serve as air conditioning for the beast!

The one with the most complicated feelings was Emily Carter. She remembered how, that day, he had foolishly shielded her without hesitation. Her heart trembled, she bit her lip, and the Saintess transformed into an energy rope, wrapped around me, and flung me away, while she herself accelerated straight toward the beast’s giant maw.

“No~~~~~!” I stared in disbelief at the scene. Until just now, I still thought I wouldn’t die, that all of this was just a dream, that maybe when I woke up tomorrow, everything would be back to normal. Why, why is this happening!

How could this be? My body feels so strange. Ah, my forehead hurts, it hurts, it hurts so much, ahhhhhhhhh!

Howl~~

A roar unlike any human’s thundered out. In the sky, the dark clouds had merged into a dense mass, lightning flashing everywhere. Several bolts struck the nearby trees. At the same time, the distant surface of the Bohai Sea was surging, with towering waves dozens of meters high. The thick clouds pressed even lower, as if about to merge with the sea, like the end of the world!

Grace Bennett couldn’t bear to watch the tragic scene. After spending so much time together, they were closer than real sisters, only able to confide in each other. They couldn’t be apart, and even had thoughts of sharing a husband. The Ice Queen sensed her master’s rage and unleashed a torrent of freezing air, but the gap in strength was simply too great.

A new human devoured by a beast would have their spirit and blood drained completely, left looking like a mummy—a fate too horrible to imagine, the worst possible death for a new human!

Bang bang~~!

The force pulling William Clark and Grace Bennett suddenly vanished, and the two of them immediately crashed to the ground. Fortunately, Grace Bennett had the Ice Queen to catch her, and Mosquito had his MN as a cushion. Poor MN, almost got squashed flat.

But the scene before their eyes made them forget everything else—this was an unforgettable spectacle for a lifetime!

Beneath the vortex of thunderclouds and lightning, the once-arrogant A-rank beast was now meekly crawling on the ground—more precisely, at the feet of a man.

And that man was me, but not my usual self, because there were three eyes on my forehead, with a golden, radiant eye in the center, shining with dazzling light. Under the golden light, all things bowed in submission!

Heaven and earth, I alone reign supreme!

And Emily Carter was in my arms, the beauty staring at me in a daze, while the Saintess revealed her true form—a little girl who looked very much like Emily Carter, gazing at me with awe.

“Beauty, this is the second time I’ve saved you. Shouldn’t there be some kind of reward?” Without waiting for Emily Carter to answer, I kissed her red lips!
