CLANNNG CLANNNG CLANNNG It had been three minutes since I have been fighting against it and now, even with ever powerful attack; it couldn't push me back. As I had expected, it is powerful. So much that it injured me and froze some of my organs, which I am still trying to defrost. The first attack of it had really caught me off guard. The bloodline energy had something unknown that I had never felt from any bloodline of the Snow Werewolf. I shouldn't have assumed with the past data. I should have kept the window open for the unknown. It was a mistake. I will not make in this ruin or out of it. This time, I had saved myself on time. Next time, I might not be able to do that. I am mostly out of danger, aside from the one attacking me. Killing it will make me safe again, but it is difficult, but not impossible either. If I fight against it long enough, I could kill it. All my clones are studying the fight and have gathered immense data, which is already helping me guess its attack. The model is making a lot of mistakes. It is why I will continue to collect more data and will try to get some information out of it. "Would you mind telling me what this ruin is?" I asked, and a surprise appeared in angry eyes. "Are you joking, human? You had entered this ruin and you do know what it is!" it said with a laugh. "To us, it is a virgin ruin. Not to mention, even if the organization knew about it, they wouldn't tell us, since we were their prisoners," I said and sighed while defending its clever attack. "A prisoner, hun. Which is why you natives should surrender to us, we will provide you with a utopian society, where nobody will suppress you, no matter how strong they are," it said. I wanted to laugh madly hearing that, but I control my emotions. "That will be the decision of the next life. For this life, I would be grateful if you would provide me an answer," I said, and its gaze turned mocking. The gaze lasted for several seconds before it turned normal again. "Since you are going to die, anyway, there is no harm in telling you a few things," it said, and I focused my ears on it. "It is a war ruin. A great battle had been fought by the primes here hundreds of thousands of years ago," "Were those Primes from the realms?" I asked and a genuine surprise appeared on its face. It had nearly given me an opening, for which I was ready to burst with all my strength before it closed it. "You know some things," it said. "I noticed things," I replied and looked at it continue. "It is all I know, human and care about. I have to this ruin for the resources and now that natives have come, it had become even better," it said and intensified its attacks. "Was there anything special about war, has they been fighting over something?" I pressed further. "As I said, I don't care for it. Sovereigns know more, but you will never get a chance to ask them," it said and changed its attack. This time, it did not shout its name. The attack was powerful, but I defended against it. I have made changes in my armor against it and still making every attack. So, as long as I am careful, no matter how many attacks it changes, I will defend. Ten minutes passed and then another and soon, it had been half an hour since we had been fighting. Yesterday, I had killed two Grimms in less than fifteen minutes and now I am fighting for one and a half hours and still hadn't been able to kill it. At least I was able to defrost my organs and heal my injuries. Now that I had returned to peak condition. It is time I killed it; I have gathered enough info and could guess its moves with good accuracy, most importantly, I am finished with energy. Buzz! The formation in my core activated and sent the energy, which merged with my inheritance energy, creating something different. This bastard is a lot stronger than me; the only reason I am even fighting against it is because of the modification I have made, which helped me deal with it better. Now, I am going to use this energy. Which, if it worked as I had expected, would help me kill this bastard. CLANNNG CLANNNG CLANNNG Soon, the energy covered my sword, and I used it to defend against its attacks and there was no reaction from it. It did not discover it, which brought a small smile to my face, and I used more in the next attack and even more in the attack after that. I used more and more and as time passed, I could see some of it sticking across its body, unknown it to. As it would hide in its bloodline energy. To create this energy, I had used a fraction of its bloodline energy. Thirteen minutes passed by and now, all my energy has covered its whole body. There is not a single surface where it had not covered it and the thing is, it had not discovered it. It reminded me of my precious strings. I wrapped them around the Grimms, while they would remain oblivious to it. Unlike my string, which once wrapped around the enemy, will make it a fish on my chopping board. Here, I will barely have a second, or less than that, before fighting off the effects. I hope that would be enough. 'Activate!' I did not waste any time and activated the energy and immediately, bright red flames covered it. It was shocked by it. The flames had not only attacked it without it knowing but also burned its bloodline energy, like oil with fire. "Its time for you to die!" I shouted, as the Grimms do, and attacked it. It was impulsive. It came out before I could stop it, and now it knows my attack is coming and already moving its claws toward me, but those claws are a lot slower than they were a second ago. My sword reached its claws, and I took a step forward. My sword avoided its claw while I moved through them. It tried to stop me and its claws scratched my armor, but I passed through them and appeared directly in front of its chest. As I had said earlier, the small body had its own advantages. One of them is getting through the gaps. As I reached it, my sword moved toward its chest; it summoned its defensive methods, but red fire had burned them before it burned itself and the Grimm could use its power again. But it is too late. Puch! My sword pierce through it; right into its heart, where it released a massive dose of energy, which broke it on its spot. 'I defeated it,' I thought in joy, before suddenly I turned pale, and my skin started to turn blue. I am freezing to death.
