《Forging his own destiny》chapter 025
Advertisement
Did I mention that I am angry? And I have no idea why? Oh, I used to have some problems with anger back on Earth. Such situation, when someone was walking in front of me on the pavement a bit to slow in my opinion and I have no way to get past them, was driving me into such an anger that I am pretty surprised I didn’t kill anyone back there.
Now I feel pretty alike. Or even more. I am angry and I have no idea why!!! Even more, I know that whatever reason is I should calm down, get my shit together and do something productive. Instead of this I will vent my anger on some random guyz. Well, they are probably here to hunt me down. ME!!! I am a fucking predator here! You want to hunt down a wolf while you are a ship?! You are insane guyz… You are disease… And here I come, as a cure.
Time remaining to absorb DNA: [01h:11m:21s]
… faster… ugh! Why does it take so long!? This whole process of endless growing, cultivating devouring, absorbing… as I ate wolfs in dungeon I got DNA almost immediately…
~It is because the monster you just ate was more powerful then you. Actually you were not supposed to kill it… well, if you wouldn’t create Greed and Pride before you would be… um… a bit enraged right now. Instead they are busy keeping warg instinct at bay… but as I see your behaving right now I can tell, that they have some problems.
Great. Tell me more. No, honestly please just tell me more about Sebastian and Walter dropping me to place where I was not supposed to came back alive… 4 hunters… 3 arrows… but wait, one is lying on the ground fighting for breath… tsh, this forest is more scary than I thought.
Should I wait till I get DNA of warg? I am going mad here… literally.
~If you would release your rage… just a little bit… we would have better time with controlling… this creature…
Great. So it is decided. Here I come for a small slaughter.
Why. Are. They. So. Far. Away… How far away are they, Sebastian? In my mind the location about a kilometer away was shown. I pulled bow out of my back and kept heading forward. Finally, a wonderful feeling of hunt filled me. A peaceful feeling of having everything under control. A feeling of owning someone’s life… But there was something more? This sick excitement… is it because now I hunt on humans? 500 meters. My enchanted hearing could grasp bits of conversation. Still, I can’t understand a word. Are they idiots? You are on hunt, not camp party! Or is it because you just entered forest and you do not suspect to encounter anything dangerous yet… well. Looks like the fact, that one of you is almost dying near you didn’t teach you anything.
300 meters. I can see a light from fireplace behind a trees. From time to time a single word can be understood. Still not enough to get whole meaning… but I can hear from 300 meters?! It is sick! Those pointy ears are really doing their job… ok I think that predatory skill is taking part in it too.

200 meters
100 meters…
With every milestone my speed was decreasing. Walter came back. He once again showed me the camp, just to be sure if everyone is still there. It would be terrible if I would be attacked in the back from someone returning from… well, you know why you are leaving a camp in the middle of the night, don’t you? Some urgent needs that they can’t be… “executed”, while you are in company of other people…
50 meters. I stopped here. But… what if they are a good people? Wouldn’t I turn into monster if I would…
- …and then she start confessing. After 4 days! She was denying her sins for 4 days, and she “changed” mind after torturer Jacob take care of her! In the hour! He is a true artist in making evil one to admit their sins. She was tortured by puncturing sensitive spots with burning needle, she had her limps dislocated, she had iron tanks filled with boiling oil putted on her body, so her skin was getting of her, and she didn’t even flinch! And then after a hour Jacob did something that 4 others torturers couldn’t do!
- A truly holy men! This whole seed of evil should be purified by flames of…
Okay, forget last part. This lovely guyz will die here today. Or not today. Depends on how skillfully I will keep them alive… In the end I still want to know if they are the only group… it should be enough… let’s look at them… black cape dude, black cape dude, silver cape dude, bl… wait… really? Let’s play a game called “guess who is a commander”. I bet on silver cape… One more time, back where I came from, in military squads commanders on the battlefield were hiding they military distinctions to not be recognized.
And here is this guy shining like diamond in the night… I would hit him with an arrow with my eyes closed! But how many of them do I need to question them? Only one… I have pulled string of the bow. Gh, the viewfinder is pulsating more than usual. Calm down, for fuck sake! I hold my breath. I will suffocate, but I will kill this asshole! My heart slowed down. The arrow went flying.
Looks like I can’t be as lucky as usually. Two of them were sitting near the fire, another one was laying about meter away, and the last one was sitting with his back on the tree. Normal humans would have problems to notice him.
As I shot an arrow, the gentlemen in silver cape decided to stand up. Because of it arrow hit his stomach instead of throat. FUCK. I came here to let my anger go away. NOT TO GET EVEN MORE PISSED OFF. Fuck this bow. I will do it with my claws! Dagger?! FUCK THE DAGGER! AND FUCK THIS GUY!
Gh, even as he is still alive he will have hard time fighting. 2 more to go…
~Greed! Can I get my hands on warg DNA yet?
~Impossible. To dangerous! Potential gains are too small to put yourself to such risk!
DAMN! I really want to get wild here. Screw this, back in dungeon Greed told me, that I focus on human form to much… well, I still think that going into full animal-mode is weird… in the end I don’t have enough DNA to fully transform into… something that will not be a total abomination. You, let’s be a fiend for now.

I charged at full speed, even as I did, there was almost no sound of me moving. There was screaming in the camp. The silver dude was holding his stomach, his chitchat companion was looking in all direction like some idiot… I mean… honestly, can’t he just look into direction were arrow came from? The dying man didn’t even noticed anything as he was… um, busy with dying… and stuff…
There was only one men calm. More like calm I could said that he was, um, ready for what is about to come? He didn’t pull his sword, nor knife. He just stand there and kept waiting. I jumped out of the bush, in mid charge I grabbed the only men that could be a threat for now, and with brute force I jumped with him to bushes on the other side of camp. This… idiot, was holding a sword. Oh, don’t get me wrong. Sword is a wonderful weapon, but not in grappling fight, it is simply too big. It would be a problem if he had a knife, for he could stab me with it as I was sitting on him. But now, because of small distance between us he just couldn’t get a good swing for it to be useful. With powerful swings I tore his throat apart… why his blood has such sweet smell? Not important now! One down 3 more to go.
The silver dude pull of arrow of his stomach.. well, a part of it, as arrowhead was still inside his belly. You have just destroyed one of my precious arrows you asshole! Then he grabbed a sword and faced me. Damn, it will get more annoying now, for I don’t have an effect of surprise anymore. The last man was still not moving from under a tree.
- What sort of abomination you are! Filthy beast! I will put you out of your miserable life!
- You are calling me a filthy beast? You was just admiring someone torturing other beings. Who of us is a beast here?
He was left speechless. Hm? Looks like he found me to be another mindless monster… WHAT KIND OF MINDLESS MONSTER USE BOW AND ARROW, YOU IDIOT!
Wait… he really is an idiot… so, what if… no, he can’t be so dumb! No one can! But… what can I lost? In worst case scenario I would be left without Kaito, in good one scenario I woul have an opening.
Kaito… - I sent message to my familiar. A simply order, for nothing more was possible. “KILL”. In the end he was not as quiet as I was. He jumped from the forest growling and howling, se silver guy had a time to react. But not on both of us in the same time! If you are attacked from two different sides you should change your location so force your enemies be in front of you… and not battle with both in same time!
Sebastian and Walter also showed some activity as they in same time targeted his face. With talons in the eyes, Kaito’s fangs in the thigh and my claws burrowed in his stomach, he died soon too.
The sitting man didn’t even flinched. While walking in his direction I “accidently” steeped on the poisoned.. he is probably poisoned, men throat. And hold my feet there for a few nice seconds, till he stop breathing. Then I start moving one more time. I sat on the ground one meter from the last one alive.
- I think we will have a talk – I growled in low voice. There was but a small nod from him.
- But why should I say you anything if I am going to die anyway?
- It depend how long you want to be in “dying” state… I can all try on you few of those.. “techniques” your comrades were talking about. Hot needles? Boiling oil? Oh, we don’t have an oil here… but water will do, will it?
- I… I really didn’t want to come here.. nor to come to this particular place… will you… will you spare me? I will tell you anything! Just please… I had one month more to just stop this whole shit that I…
- I will not kill you, if you would tell me whole truth… Everything. How many of you came, why are you here, who send you…
- First of all, we were told to hunt some boy… he was said to be a monster using magic… we were told he has white hairs, tattoos on his arm and heart and eyes in different colors… you could just ignore us! If you do we would simply…
I changed back into my human form. He didn’t say a word for more than a minute. And then he told everything. Number, probable location of them, who is in charge, who send them, ranking system… It took some time.
- I am glad for your contribution… Now, rest in peace and try to resist as least as possible… then you will die faster…
- You said that you will spare me!
- No, I told you that “I will not kill you”… - I stand up and headed back to my new home. Walking away I only said a one word – Kaito
521 exp total? Looks like I found my new exp source
I considered making a new core for human… but after some time I abandoned this idea. I am not mentally prepared for it.
It was like a command. I never actually told him what to do, yet as he heard his name being mentioned he jumped to men’s throat… what a busy, busy week we will have… 4 down, 46 more to go. There was nice information among all of them. There are all teams made out of 4 people, but one. Those were called the angelic wings duo. Two high inquisitors specialized in hunting powerful witches.
I can’t wait to find you. I will sharpen my claws till then…
sorry for not making blue-boxes, but i was writing this chap in secret from my family, for they are yelling all the time: "do you bachelor degree thesis!!!"... so i was writing it long and slowly... for they were walking in and out of my room all the time... duh.
Oh, and about the party - i am alive!!!
