Blood Assimilation

221 Strange Ability, Demonic Transformation, And Observed Yet Again

While Randy was startled and confused by the sudden insane outburst from the black-horned demon who seemed to be on the verge of death, a strange and dumbfounding scene unfolded.

What was happening shocked him senseless, and he even doubted his eyes for a second.

The black-horned demon, who seemed to be on the verge of certain death, started regenerating.

No, it was more than just simple regeneration, as even the clothes of the black-horned demon were gradually being restored to their previous undamaged state, visibly to the naked eyes.

Still with a dumbfounded expression, Randy suddenly sensed something and immediately came back to his senses, then looked in the distance away, specifically at where the black-horned demon’s puppet was standing.

When he saw the puppet this time, unlike before, it was bleeding profusely from all of its orifices. Even the clothes on its body looked ripped apart.

The puppet’s current appearance looked as if it was carried and devastated unsuspectingly by a hurricane that came out of nowhere. But that should be impossible, as no one sensed such an occurrence just now.

Furthermore, despite the puppet’s current state, there was no expression of pain on its face, as it still had that expressionless countenance that made it appear lifeless.

“This...”

.....

After observing the change between the puppet and the black-horned demon, Randy did not know how to express his disbelief, as he only had a dazed look on his face.

There was a brief moment of silence.

“...What kind of ability is that?!”

Randy couldn’t maintain his calm anymore and eventually exclaimed in shock shortly after.

After all, this was the first time he had witnessed such a strange and incomprehensible ability.

‘Damn it! I had used up almost all my mana points in that attack. Why does this guy even have such an ability?’

Randy felt cornered upon witnessing the current situation.

Although with his Myriad Energy Devouring Physique’s effect, recovering his energy reserves had always been faster when compared to ordinary people, it was still not instant. Due to that, it was too dangerous to run out of energy when fighting against such a difficult opponent.

Currently, he was in his Werewolf King form, so his physical abilities were higher than before.

Therefore, he was confident that he would be able to kill the demon off with the sudden increase in his strength. But unexpectedly, unlike his thoughts, they somehow managed to survive his attack with some strange ability.

Ultimately, he also exhausted almost all his energy reserves to execute the combination attacks because of such confidence.

Fortunately, he still had his physical enhancement.

However, he was unsure whether simply having immense physical strength would be enough to defeat his opponent, who seemed completely unfazed by his physical attacks earlier due to the eerie purple aura around their body.

Up until now, Randy was planning on not using his assimilated state unless he had absolutely no other option.

But as the battle went on, he realized that the current understanding of his swordsmanship skills was not enough, and thus, it was too dangerous if he did not use his assimilated state’s skills.

Furthermore, his fist technique might not be enough to deal critical damage.

Thus, it was too dangerous not to use his assimilated state’s skills.

As such, he eventually decided to use it at an opportune moment during the fight after he had made up his mind.

But as things turned out, he failed to kill his opponent even with a sneak attack that carried almost all his energy reserves.

...

Meanwhile, on the other side, the shockwaves resounding from his ultimate attack attracted the attention of both his incarnation body and the red-scaled demon.

At this moment, the red-scaled demon felt a chill all over his body as he watched how his arrogant partner was thrashed by that human’s attack, enough that he had to rely on his secret protective measure.

‘If that were to hit me, would I survive?’

Although he was confident in surviving such an attack as long as he went all out, he was not foolproof against such an attack with his previously displayed strength.

In reality, they had been holding back this whole time to avoid drawing the attention of any possible powerhouse near the forest.

But now that it had come to this, it would appear that they had to go all out if they wanted to defeat this human, who seemed to possess multiple strange skills and abilities.

With that unified thought, both the black-horned demon and the red-scaled demon unleashed a very dark, sinister, and eerie energy out of their bodies, with their bodies instantly undergoing a drastic demonic metamorphosis.

It was their demonic transformation.

Each change in their body elevated their strength to new heights, and from one look, anyone could tell that their gradually transforming appearance was terrible news.

In the end, both the black-horned demon and the red-scaled demon’s bodies expanded noticeably until they eventually became enormous compared to their bodies from before, with their bodies now revealing distinct ghastly appearances.

The black-horned demon’s pale-white skin became pale-purple with darkness surrounding his body. His height also rose from 7 feet to 10 feet tall, an approximate body height of 3 meters.

The red-scaled demon’s scales turned from plain red skin into dark skin with red patterns with more sheen than a metallic luster.

Unlike the black-horned demon’s minimal increase in height, the red-scaled demon’s height rose considerably from 10 feet to about 16 feet tall, and also, its chest width was about 5 feet.

Overall, the red-scaled demon’s approximate height and chest width were 5 meters tall and 1.5 meters wide.

Their current appearance was a horrifying demonic transformation, which could elicit fear in any weak-minded people.

Witnessing this scene, Randy was shocked once again, and he became instantly alert as both his original body and incarnation retreated from their respective opponents.

...

Inside A Certain Dark Castle.

On A Decorated Throne.

A charming and beautiful woman sat with one slender leg over the other behind a glass orb as she observed a human fight against two demons that seemed to have invaded the human territory.

At this moment, their fight had reached a very critical stage.

‘Isn’t that the human from before? What’s he doing back there? Didn’t he leave the previous village for the city? Why did he come back here?’

She pondered for a bit before she gave up and thought of something else.

‘Those two demons... Why did I not notice them when they appeared in my territory?’

‘Right, I was busy with the humans who suddenly came to the forest in droves for some particular reason. It seems the demons escaped my sight at that time and managed to get that far.’

‘But I wonder why they’re here in my territory. Those guys usually do not interfere with the territory of others. Are they on some mission? If so, why wasn’t I informed about such a thing beforehand?’

Usually, whenever there was a special mission, which would inevitably interfere with the territory of others, as allies in the war, they followed the established dogma to inform each other beforehand to avoid unnecessary conflict.

At least, that was what she was told by her superior.

But seeing the current situation, that did not seem to be the case with these demons, as they rudely barged into her territory unannounced with unknown intentions.
