Blood Assimilation-Chapter 228

228 Conclusion

The reason Randy could put his incarnation inside his storage space should have something to do with his incarnation technically dying from this battle; So it was no different from a corpse.

Furthermore, since it was only an incomplete incarnation, its existence itself was bizarre. Therefore, the incarnation could mostly be seen as both living and dead.

After he took care of that, Randy undid his transformation. In response, his long white hair turned short, then turned back to his natural and curly blonde hair.

Subsequently, he stopped as he felt a strange but familiar gaze locked on his body.

Randy could tell that it was the same gaze that followed and observed him right when he arrived in Acruxia. It had managed to keep its eyes on him throughout his stay in that nameless village.

He had no idea about their intentions, but for them to be monitoring his movements, they might be up to no good. Thinking about that, he raised his head and turned to face the sky in the direction of the Meistic forest with a scowled expression.

...

Inside A Dark Castle.

The beautiful woman was still in a daze, as she was shocked by the scene she had witnessed just now.

.....

“H-He actually won...? It makes me wonder where this human came from. He’s such a mystery. And did I see it right? He is somehow looking up toward the direction of my clairvoyance perspective for some reason.”

‘Don’t tell me he could tell that I was watching him this entire time? It’s better not to get involved with this strange human any more than I already have. I might give myself away at this rate.’

The beautiful woman wondered to herself, but she gradually felt unsettled about the whole thing, the more she found out about that human.

She didn’t know why, but she felt that something was not right about the human.

She even wondered if he was some sort of hybrid- an amalgamation of other creatures in the appearance of a human. After all, he could use the different abilities of other species as if they were his own.

If that was the case, who could’ve created such a monster? The demons? Or the humans?

Regardless of the situation, it was dangerous to get involved with either of the two races, as they tend to be extreme whenever there are wars, thus implicating innocent lives.

The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became about the existence of that human, and she quickly reacted.

Very hastily, she changed the perspective of her clairvoyance orb back into the forest to avoid giving out her location. If the other party could detect her clairvoyance spell, they could also trace her whereabouts.

However, a few moments later, she was startled by a commotion in the forest. She wondered what had happened when she was distracted by the fight between that human and the demons.

...

Outside the Meistic Forest.

While still looking up toward a certain part of the sky, Randy suddenly muttered: “The gaze... disappeared? Well, whatever. Once I get strong enough, I will find out who they are and settle the score for spying on me all this time.”

Randy did not like the fact that he was spied on by others wantonly. After all, the other party might’ve already seen all his trump cards using such spying means, which was not a pleasant thing. Furthermore, there was a high risk to his life if the other party were to give his secrets away to his enemy someday.

He couldn’t let that happen. As such, he planned to visit them and demand answers when he grew strong enough. But until then, he would have to postpone that settlement.

With that settled, he then quickly looked down to check his armor, which was emitting a sinister glow for some reason.

After a quick inspection, Randy noticed that his armor had somehow managed to absorb the sinister dark energy from the black-horned demon’s body when he killed him.

He recalled that his armor could absorb shadow aura to repair itself. However, it turned out that it could also absorb any form of dark energy, including the demons’ dark energy. 𝐟re𝐞w𝐞𝒃𝓃𝒐𝐯𝚎𝒍.c૦𝚖

During the combat, thanks to his Shadow Beast Leather Armor, he was able to survive the black-horned demon’s initial attacks unscathed until it could no longer resist his attacks.

When that happened, the armor’s self-repair property kicked in, but it was still getting destroyed instantly by the black-horned demon’s overpowering fist attacks whenever it landed on his body.

Over time, the armor became useless in battle. Randy had no choice but to use his movement methods and techniques to avoid critical damage and injuries to his body.

Before the armor broke down, he did not dodge the black-horned demon’s attacks. But he instead utilized that opportunity to relentlessly unleash and amplify his fist technique’s effect of ‘gathering the wind’ around the fist by circulating the internal energy within your body.

Even though Randy’s only armor became useless, and he inevitably suffered some internal injuries as a result, he desperately continued to press on until the conclusion of the battle.

Unexpectedly, after the battle had concluded, his armor did not only finish its repair, but it even managed to absorb the dark energy as substitute energy to repair itself and thus gained the aura of that sinister and repulsive dark energy.

Another thing to note about his armor was that despite absorbing such sinister energy that held different effects from Randy’s experience up until now, he was not affected by the dark energy this time even though he was still wearing it currently.

‘As to be expected from a legendary-rank armor. It really is built differently.’

Although the amount of dark energy the armor absorbed was not noticeable and could barely be detected by the wearer, it was still there.

Randy pondered for a moment and then suddenly laughed in anticipation.

“This might come in handy someday...”

After saying that, Randy took out his Glacial Beast Sword and then headed toward the direction of the Meistic forest.

He aimed to continue to hunt some magical beasts to cover his tracks.

Thankfully, there wasn’t anyone nearby during their fight, so there were no collateral damages.

During the fight, he purposely lured the demons away from the direction of the nearby village as they fought.

As such, he could leave without causing any commotion.

However, at this time, he didn’t know that their battle just now had scared away all the surrounding magical beasts near their battlefield. Since they were close to the Meistic Forest.

...

A while later, after Randy left the battlefield, four figures suddenly appeared there one by one.

The scene those four figures saw shocked them immensely. From the large craters everywhere that seared with intense heat as though there was a larva boiling underneath the ground to the destroyed trees.

‘What kind of monster burned and razed the ground into such a state?’ They all wondered in disbelief.

“Are you certain it was here, Eliana? Are you sure that this is not an undiscovered volcanic site instead?”

“I am certain. You can tell simply by looking at that baleful demonic energy emitting from the craters with the flames.”

“Haah... I guess you’re right. But what exactly happened here? I thought we would run into demons here, but there’s nothing left. Did someone fight them off? Or was there infighting between them, and they ended their fight early and left?”

“Hah?! Do you think someone in this small city could fight a demon and survive?! I don’t believe that! Unless it is the leader, no one should possess such strength in this place.”

“...I suppose that makes sense.”
