KEEP BUANA (Rise of Darkness)

The Twin Sword Crushed

‘Auuuuuu’!

‘Auuuuuuuuuuuu!’

‘Grrrr...’!

The sound of the wolves was heard.

They grinned towards Gentayu, flaunting their rows of sharp teeth with drooling drool.

Gentayu feels dead step. It was no longer possible for him to escape. But, fighting is also predictable results. Thus, Gentayu only got closer to grasping his two twin swords.

The empati had been first sent to the dimension of the lakefront world before the wolves appeared.

One of the wolf hordes came forward to approach Gentayu who began to sweat coldly. There was not the slightest fear in his heart, but the feeling of crisis between life and death now felt closer and closer.

The wolf that approached was bigger than it looked. Either because of the distance or indeed the creature was enlarged, but its size is no less than a calf obviously makes a guts squeak. Especially with tens like now.

The wolf raised its front legs revealing glittering claws, and in lightning speed made a slap-like movement towards Gentayu.

Gentayu who had been preparing warily from the start, managed to fend off the wolf's movements using his twin swords crossed in front of his body.

There was a sound of metal cracking as the claws of the silver-footed wolf touched the surface of the Gentayu sword. Ryu energy that became a sword spirit seemed to be churned to withstand the attack of the single claw.

Unfortunately, the unbalanced strength of the two made Gentayu pushed back tens of meters back. Both of his feet dragged layers of soil and leaves with him, creating two long lines the size of his soles.

Gentayu immediately stored his two twin swords back into the wagon bracelet. Just as the sword disappeared, his opponent wolf had stood before him in a single jump.

Without waiting, the wolf immediately pounced on Gentayu. Gentayu greeted the attack with a fist punch towards the wolf's muzzle. Too bad, even though the punch was precisely aimed and hit the target, it turned out that the effect was not like expectations.

The wolf's mouth was on Gentayu's arm. Grip it with his sharp teeth. Stuck up, and ready to crush his right arm.

That was when, reflexively his right hand pierced sharply towards the wolf eyeball which was right in front of his face.

The wolf was in pain. Turtle howls sounded along with blood spurting from his right eyeball.

Jumping backwards in pain, the Wolf growled furiously. The herd behind him was like a shock seeing his partner get hurt and howling in pain.

The momentum of the wolf leaping backwards in shock and pain was used by Gentayu to escape. The distance between the two of them and the wolf pack was indeed more than fifty meters away so that Gentayu could immediately disappear from sight.

However, Getayu may forget the fact that the Wolf is an animal that relies on smell as its superior sense.

Gentayu himself used his mainstay to escape, the Wind Steps. Combined with the dath energy he possessed, his speed was four times faster than when he had used the inner power before.

But, the wolf hunting him was definitely not an ordinary animal. Their speed was also far many times above the speed of ordinary animals. Coupled with the intelligence they had, it seemed like Gentayu's chances of escaping were slim.

A noisy noise immediately filled the originally quiet area of the forest. The sounds of growls and howls were heard alternately from the wolf pack that was hunting Gentayu, as if they were arguing.

Surprisingly, after more than half an hour the wolves surrounded and rattled the entire forest, they failed to find Gentayu. Their sharp smell could not even detect the whereabouts of the young man.

Meanwhile, on top of a branch and covered by a giant, broad-leaved orchid, Gentayu hid himself. His still extremely weak aura of strength left him undetectable. Another story will be, if the current strength of Gentayu is higher, then the aura of his strength will be more easily detected by the herd of wolves underneath.

Wolf olfactory even failed to find the position of Gentayu because it turned out that by chance Gentayu hid in one of the branches of the tree ‘oil umbil’ or the giant new tree (kamper) not too far from the location of the previous fight.

The wolves themselves had been more than a kilometer ahead of him thinking Gentayu had run so fast that they were unable to sniff out the smell. They were clearly unaware of the existence of this gigantic camphor tree as it was indeed too close to the location of the battle.

Gentayu was still waiting anxiously. His breath had been set so as not to be smelled in the air. After more than two hours of waiting, and convinced the wolf pack had left, Gentayu dared to come down.

Not to forget, before going down he scratched the bark of the tree to be taken sap. This is his way of masking his body odor from similar wild animals, which rely on smell to hunt.

It was late afternoon before dusk when Gentayu finally returned to tread the ground with relief. His plan to get the game animals that day almost failed if his eyes did not see the existence of a strange bat that was hanging on top of another branch. It was quite tall, but still on the giant camphor tree that saved his life.

Gentayu leapt agilely between the twigs and branches of camphor to reach the height where the strange bat was located. The bat realized Gentayu was approaching him. His eyes opened, preparing to flee as his two wings had been pierced by four knives and stuck on the branch where he was hanging.

Staring furiously at Gentayu, the Bat opened its mouth. An extremely powerful sonar sound was released by the bat, making the air around it distort and becoming a devastating sound wave attack.

Gentayu who was in a hovering position almost lost balance due to the sound wave attack. The bark of the tree that the sound waves passed through was peeled off and flew towards him.

Thanks to his swiftness, Gentayu managed to survive by taking shelter behind the large trunk of the camphor tree. Unfortunately, the consequences are beyond estimate. The attack of sound waves that led to him destroyed the tree trunk. The fibers are crushed like finely ground. The giant tree fell, leaving the lower trunk standing.

One of the twigs on Gentayu's body that grabbed him when he was about to fall slammed into the ground with the trunk of the tree.

Gentayu failed to dodge, the twig hit his shoulder and took him and hit the ground. Although he managed to balance himself, Gentayu failed to land safely. Along with the twig of the tree, he landed rough on the ground with his back preceded.

Meanwhile, the strange blue bat managed to escape from the Gentayu knife.

The four holes in his large wings from the knife-pierced wound slowly began to close. But, before it perfectly closed, the wounds suddenly released flames and burned the bat's wings.

It was Ryu.

The four knives Gentayu threw were actually fragments of his twin swords. The sword had actually been shattered from the impact with the claws of the silver-legged wolf!
