3660 Fighting The Bulls

Hun!

I stopped and focused on the particular spot, which has a residual of aura.

There had been a battle here, but signs of it's been intentionally wiped out and quite thoroughly. If not for my special abilities, I wouldn't have been able to discover the faint bit of aura at all.

Someone had fought here against a monster.

It was a Sky Sovereign, a mid-level one with the signature of the energy to believe.

It made me happy, but also serious. Ever since I appeared here; I have been searching for the man who had stepped into the gate before me; I had not found any sign of him.

It is likely that he appeared in a different place than me.

The aura was three days old. It means whoever the person was, they did not come from the gate in the Ekulu forest. There are other gates and people here have come from them.

It had made me more cautious, but also relieved.

Now, I didn't have to find the one person who knows where the hell I am and what this place has to make that man excited.

I didn't spend any more time and walked ahead, while the invisible strings around me moved and harvested the resources. There are a lot of resources, and I am harvesting some of them.

Careful not to leave the trail through them.

It is one of the best ways to track. People can control their movements and aura, but it is hard to control their greed when so many amazing resources are lying around.

Thanks to my strings, I could harvest the resources far off and I am only harvesting the ones I need or find interesting. I am not harvesting those that I already have or have no need in the future.

An hour passed and then another, I have not seen the proof of any powerhouse. However, I have sensed the three Sky Sovereigns with my soul waves and adjusted my path to avoid them.

It was on the third hour; I had stopped as I sensed an aura again and this time; it belonged to Earth Sovereign.

It is only a day old and the one who had left behind didn't clean it up properly.

I collected the sample and moved away, watching for the dangers and ruins, which had nothing left in them. I am scanning them with my soul sense, quite thoroughly, but aren't finding anything.

Hun!

Another hour and a half passed, when suddenly, my soul sense caught something, or rather someone.

My speed increased, while the twelve ruby pearls released from my hand. They moved ahead, faster than they ever had.

I had reforged them after the damage they had suffered in the critter pod. Now, they are not only fixed but their abilities have been upgraded too.

The speed and the range are one of them.

Five and a half minutes later, I had reached the person. A human, nonetheless; a tall figure with a bald head, fighting against four bull monsters and all of them Peak Earth-

Sovereign like himself.

He is in quiet trouble. He is powerful, but those four monsters are not weaklings either; they are more powerful than an average monster of their level.

Which isn't surprising given the powerful energy of this place. It had made every monster of this place stronger than usual.

These bull monsters are white as milk and have black horns with shining specks. They are twice as average bull and packed with muscles; no wonder, they pack such powerful physical force.

I looked at the battle for a moment and the state of the humans before sighing.

A moment later, bulls whipped their heads toward me, as they sensed my presence.

Mooooo!

They mooed loudly and came at me with incredible speed, arriving in front of me in an instant before ramming their heads toward me.

Burst 70%

The power of the burst filled me, and my heart started to beat in excitement. It's been over two months since I fought anything.

These monsters have made me excited. I hope they didn't disappoint me.

CLANNNG!

My sword clashed against the horn of the first bull, and I shook before I disappeared from my spot.

"It seemed like you have some strength, but it won't be enough if you want to deal with me," I said to the bulls.

Moooooo!

They seemed to understand the meaning of my words as they mooed loudly and came at me with an even more powerful attack.

CLANNNG!

This time, my sword clashed against the horn of the second bull, and I had nearly stepped back before I disappeared to dodge the attack and appeared before the first bull.

It reacted smoothly and struck my sword with its tail.

CLANNNG CLANNNG CLANNNG!

To my surprise, its tail clashed hard as those horns. Making me the tail in the new light, usually, the tail attacks tend to be weaker.

I quickly controlled my emotions and moved to defend against the attack of the second bull, before dodging the attack from the first bull.

Both of the monsters attacked me relentlessly, without giving me a moment of respite. These two bulls are not only powerful but also have good coordination, which is rarely seen in the monsters.

It didn't make me angry, and instead, a smile appeared on my face.

It is rare that monsters fight like that and wish that the other two would also join to make the battle even more interesting.

MOOOO!

Seconds passed, and I clashed with the bulls. They got quite angry, seeing they were unable to land even a single attack on me.

It forced them to use everything they had against me, crushing anything that came in their path. Whether it is trees, boulders or the runes of buildings itself, everything got crushed by the bulls.

They have been hopping mad and want nothing more than to butcher me bloody with those sharp horns of theirs.

"Try hard; this alone wouldn't be enough," I mocked them, making them even more angry.

Hun!

A few more seconds passed, and the change occurred on the battlefield. The bald man had killed the first bull and, seeing his strength, it won't take him long to kill the other one.

"It was fun," I said to the two bulls earnestly and moved toward them, with my eyes turned serious.
