Chapter 98 Shin's Rage - Part 1: Monster
'Ding'
[ You have used the skill transformation ]
[ -> Revert ]
Well, since there was only one option, it would get automatically activated if not chosen for ten seconds.
'Ding'
[ You have returned to your true self ]
The drawback of the transformation skill was that, without returning to your former self, you couldn't transform into anything else.
That was the reason for a single option appearing in front of him.
It was only after this that he recalled the past and then howled while being filled with agony.
'Aoooooo'
'lub dub lub dub'
His heart was beating fast. Blood was gushing through his veins and arteries causing his body to get heated.
His eyes were opened widely all this time as he stared at the system screen in front of him.
How did it even pop up?
It was because of Shin since he wanted to check Aella's condition when he spotted the arrow.
Not even a drop of tear was found in his eyes. He got a big shock after all.
After howling, his heart started to beat faster instead of calming down.
Most of the time pups, wolves, dogs, or other similar animals howl when they either lose someone of their own kind or when they lose their loved ones.
Shin had no intention of howling, it just happened on its own.
"Ha..."
"This is funny...", was what he said.
He then slowly turned his head towards his right side from where he tried to escape when he found all the humans running here and there.
Especially the soldiers were searching for Shin probably because they knew that he couldn't fly away with the heavy load and even if he tried, he wouldn't have gone that far.
They weren't wrong at all. Shin was in their own territory, however, was that a good thing?
"I broke a promise..."
"I couldn't protect you.", was what Shin said in a low voice.
He hadn't blinked even once till now after he had seen the death status!
"And now I'm gonna break another..."
"I don't think I can forgive them for doing this.", he said and jumped down the tall building.
While he did get hurt because of the jump from the great height, it wasn't much. Needless to say, only an ounce of HP was lost while he felt no pain thanks to his pain resistance.
"That is...", the soldiers were just searching for the crow and the bag when suddenly they found Shin in front of them.
Well, seeing a beast out of nowhere in the middle of the town would make anyone and everyone bewildered.
Balton rode the horse and arrived at the scene too when he found Shin.
Behind Shin, the huge building stood, towards his right Balton, and soon Wendy arrived and blocked his left side.
In front of him, there were the soldiers who had come earlier!
The building was exactly in the middle of the town due to which there were four routes or paths around it. Needless to say, since his back was blocked by the building, he couldn't go around it to reach the fourth path to escape.
He didn't want to escape in the first place.
"A beast?"
"What is a beast doing here?!", all the soldiers were shouting and were causing chaos.
Despite being in the chaos, Shin couldn't hear anything, not even the notification that popped up.
'Ding'
[ Skill Language Translation has leveled up ]
[ Lv.3 -> Lv.4 ]
[ The host will now be able to understand languages in a better manner ]
[ 5 varieties of previously exposed languages will be added ]
Clearly, this meant that he could understand the human language which the people were speaking in the town since he had been exposed to that earlier.
It was of no surprise that the skill leveled up since he had been hearing a lot of words all this time while this skill was trying to convert them to understandable language!
Shin didn't mind this at all. In fact, the silence that he was hearing was quite scary.
Silence can't be heard, it can only be maintained, however, he was actually hearing the silence!
A voice, the voice of the silence was echoing in his mind. He was way too emotional and unstable to realize that it was his own inner voice!
'Kill.'
'Kill.'
'Kill them!'
That was the only thing that he was hearing, Aella's words and memories about her flashed in front of his eyes but it included the times when he was happy. The memories about her words and promise seemed to have been restricted.
"Well well, we did lose that beast..."
"However we got someone similar to that one!", was what Balton said.
Taking this beast would also get them fame when they would either lie or exaggerate.
"I'm sorry Aella..."
"I'm going to leave everything to my rage and instant..."
"I'm too tired...", was what Shin mumbled.
Surprisingly, the soldiers and Balton including Wendy heard this even in the chaotic situation.
More than that, they actually understood what he said!
"Did that beast just speak...?", was what Wendy asked in a low voice while sweating profusely.
However it was only him and a few men around him who heard this, Balton failed to hear this and others didn't too because of what he announced.
"A talking wolf!"
"Kill it! The one who brings me the wolf will get 1000 gold coins!", Balton announced.
The soldiers heard that and charged like mad fools.
"Hyaaaa!"
Some wielded spears and some wielded swords. The groups of archers were quite back and were not at the scene.
"Ha..."
"First you killed Aella, and now you want to kill me?", Shin asked.
The ones who had rushed to kill him suddenly halted.
"Wha-"
'Ding'
[ Immense Rage is detected from the host ]
[ The foes will be intimidated ]
[ The skill Aura control will be disabled ]
It seemed like the system fully supported what Shin was doing.
"M-"
"Monster!", all the soldiers who neared him shouted in unison after seeing and feeling the dominating aura.
A shadow suddenly seemed standing which had red glowing eyes.
"Monster!", they kept shouting.
Some rushed and tried to kill him due to fear, unfortunately, that was the exact moment when they lost their lives.
The moment they felt the aura or the moment they saw a talking of, they should have realized that they were messing with the wrong being.
If they had tried to run away, they might have even got away from him because of the large number, but once they pointed the weapons at him, they should have realized that they were sending an invitation to the DEATH itself!
'Splash'
'Spursh'
'Splash'
Fifteen fountains of blood were created all of a sudden. The blood gushed out of the necks of the fifteen soldiers who had surrounded Shin and were trying to attack.
Their heads were missing and precisely because of that the blood gushed out upward while covering the shiny silver armor of many soldiers.
'Ding'
[ You have used the skill Aero Slash ]
The heads that were missing soon fell on the ground.
One of the heads went flying a bit bizarrely and ended up landing on Wendy's hand. It was as if he was trying to catch the head, however, he has just placed it near his belly when suddenly the head landed.
"S-sir...", the cut head said this and then his eyes just rolled up.
"A-"
"Ahhhhhhhh!", Wendy shouted with all his strength after seeing the sliced head on his hand.
The slicing happened so suddenly that the man who died failed to realize that his head was shut.
More than that, he spoke even after his head was cut.
The blood gushed out of the heads too which made it look like a rain of blood! Blood dripped and flowed out of the head which Wendy was holding.
His hand was already tainted with blood however that made no difference because he had a small pool of blood in his hand when the head just fell down.
Basically, the blood ripped down his hands when the space between his fingers was made.
"Monster!!!!"
Everyone started to shout, including Wendy.
The humans were no match to him at all.
How so?
It was because Shin had confirmed their levels earlier when he was flying like a crow.
[ Name: Balton ]
[ Rank: B || Max. rank: A ]
[ Level: 47 || Max. level: 100 ]
Balton did have some skills due to which he was able to harm Aella, however, he possessed almost no harm to Shin.
When the general was so weak, then why was there a need to fear the average soldiers?
"Monster!", this word seemed like a chant at the moment.
Everyone, even Wendy, was shouting this with fear!
*gulp*
"Monster...", Balton said in a low voice while sweating profusely.
"..."
