Chapter 21 Who...What are You?
Edgar smiled as the small mist made its way towards the Fire Bear .
He waited in anticipation to see the results of his newfound ability.
His eyes were fixed on the large animal in front of him, his ears perked up at the sound of a soft growl.
The Mist had touched the Fire Bear but it seemed to have done absolutely no harm to the Beast.
" This can't be true" He gnashed his teeth in frustration and lounged towards the Fire Bear again.
"It won't work!"
The Fire Bear didn't seem too fazed by Edgar's attempts at contact, it was busily trying to fight off Mr. Plump's fat figure all while recovering.
Edgar knew that the animal could easily rip him apart with a single swat if it finished off his Plump friend and that's why he wanted to kill it before it happened.
But...His powers were useless against this creature. Even the Mist was doing nothing! It wasn't even affecting the Beast.
" Kid !" Mr. Plump shouted out to Edgar whiles being hammered by the Bear.
" Cover your ... traces...with the Mist...and...and use...your Fire...abilities to..." Mr. Plump passed out before he could finish his sentence but Edgar had understood what he wanted to say.
" Silly me ,didn't even think about it". He made a mental facepalm.
Mr. Plump's suggestion was a very good one and if done carefully was surely going to be the turning point of this Beast and Man bout.
" Let's do this "
He conjured a large Mist and hid in it but it wasn't easy as he had imagined it to be.
He was running out of energy and he could feel it.
" Dammit,I have to wrap it up quickly ".
He cast another thick one and hid himself in it as he stealthily approached the Fire Bear.
The Dark Mist had covered almost every space in the cave.
Mr. Fire Bear was as blind as a bat now, with nothing to see , it went full beserk mode and started acting on instincts.
It began clawing blindly at anything it touched and was running about in a frenzy.
" I just need it to stand still" Edgar muttered under his breath as he tried to approach the Fire Bear from behind.
He managed to creep close to it, and when he finally got to where he wanted to be, he wrapped himself around the fire Bear's right paw like he had planned it all along.
" Ahhhhhhhh"
He screamed in pain as he spewed flames of fire at the Bear burning its skin .
" This should keep it distracted for a while, at least till I've finished off this thing."
And with that, he grabbed the handle of dagger and plunged it deep into the Fire Bear's body.
" You're not worthy to be called a Beast...even though I can sense Beast energy in you " The Fire Bear growled, but for reasons unknown to Edgar ,he could hear the Beast's growl.
" What is going on? Have I turned into a Beast?" He asked himself in disbelief.
His energy had been completely depleted and his breathing became heavy.
But before he could answer he felt the Fire Bear thrashing wildly in his grasp. He let go in shock and fell on the floor.
He lay down weak and motionless waiting for his doom ...but the Fire Bear's attack never came.
It made a low growl however and spoke out again.
" You are an abomination, an anomaly that shouldn't be here . Woe be unto Neburia for a Demon has appeared in the midst of its inhabitants "
" Oh how I wish I had half the strength of a newborn cub, I would have killed you and purged Neburia of your unholy presence. Demonic Abominable Creature. "
Then in a low growl, almost like that of a dying animal asked out.
" Now...Tell me Unholy thing, and don't lie for I am dead already and too weak to do you harm, Who and What are you? Tell me, are you Beast or Man?"
It's eyes were wide open and blood was pouring out from its wound In large amounts.
Edgar managed to get up and took a look at the dying Beast.
" I am not Man or Beast, I don't know what I am...but... it doesn't matter my dear Mister Bear, I'm here to live and enjoy my new life and by jove I won't hesitate to kill anything that stands in my way. You my first victim and I know there'll be more to come , blood and innards doesn't disgust me, there'll be more bloodshed and corpses to my name. Rest Well my Poetic Adversary ".
Edgar replied and watched in silence as the Fire Bear drew its last breath.
He rushed over to Mr.Plump who was lying motionlessly on a pile of debris.
" Jeez, he's so cold " he picked him up after some few attempts and made way towards the opening in the cave.Download Novelah App
