Death… And Me

Chapter 3259: Drilled Into the Mind

Rifindio did his best, but the fact he couldnʼt transform back into his Camazotz Bat form meant he lacked quite some power. The girl, on the other hand, was already using her best form, which Rifindio seemed to recognize.

Finally, Rifindio moved too slowly when he tried to dodge, and the girlʼs claw came straight to his head. Powerful Bloodline Aura and Spiritual Energy filled the girlʼs claws, knowing that that was the chance to send Rifindio to the underworld.

*Grab!*

Yet, in the very last split second, a hand came out of nowhere, grabbing the girlʼs hand and killing all its momentum. All the bloodline aura disappeared as well as the Spiritual Energy. That hand was like a mountain, and as much as the girl tried to force her blood claws forward, the hand didnʼt move a single centimeter.

”Thatʼs enough, little girl. You are quite good, but he is our shipʼs captain, you know?” Rean smiled on the side, holding the girlʼs hand leisurely. With his Sky Energy, Enhancement Skill, and Starlight Body, his strength far surpassed hers. Rean might have had some difficulty if she was also in the Peak Stage of the Transition Realm, but she is an entire Realm below instead. The girl was fuming, not liking how Rean stopped her that easily. She could see Rean was at the Peak Stage of the Transition Realm since Rean wasnʼt hiding his cultivation. Nonetheless, because of her Divine Camzotz Form, she found it hard to believe Rean could stop her full- force attack with a single hand. ”Let me go!”

*Zash!*

Her other blood claws hand moved in Reanʼs direction, trying to strike him instead. Yet, Rean stepped to the side in a weird manner. At the same time, while the girlʼs second hand tried to strike Rean, he pulled the hand he was holding, forcing her to stumble forward against her will. He finalized by putting one of his legs on the path she was moving, and the girl tripped. *Tud!*

As Rean was just with his back against a wall a moment before, the girlʼs face ended up hitting that wall with her momentum. That was quite an embarrassing way of being played around.

”Ouch... that must have hurt... Sorry, sorry.” Rean commented with a smile, his face not showing even a hint of the apologetic words he just used.

The girl turned back, her eyes almost on fire. ”You! You!”

On the side, Kentucky patted Rifindioʼs head. ”Although Iʼm a little disappointed, you werenʼt all that bad. Itʼs just that you couldnʼt use your real form. But then again, she is an entire realm below you. Thatʼs quite embarrassing.”

Rifindio wished he could beat Kentucky right there, but he knew he would receive an even bigger beating than what he got from the girl.

Kentucky then looked to the side and saw how the girl immediately attacked Rean again. Well, Rean dodged everything easily, all of that while covering the bridge with his Spiritual Sense to not damage anything. ”Pay attention to Rean. Do you see how he uses the bratʼs own strength against her? He could totally overwhelm her with his strength, but there is simply no need for it. You were trying to block her all the time, relying on your higher cultivation realm. You need to be aware that pure strength isnʼt everything, even for Demon Beasts like us.”

Rifindio calmed down, watching as Rean and the girl exchanged moves. ”But master, can you do what Rean is doing? You always overwhelmed me when we fought.”

”Hmph!” Kentucky heard that as a challenge. ”Rean, let me show him.”

Kentucky quickly jumped in, and just as the girl was about to attack Rean again, Kentucky appeared in front of her. His hand moved to the side, forcing the hand away while he used that momentum to make the girl trip just like Rean did.

If she could truly explode, she probably would have done so already. Rean had obviously been playing with her a moment ago, and now someone had joined in. ”I refuse to believe I canʼt lend a single blow!”

She attacked again, this time trying Kentucky. She could also feel Kentuckyʼs Demon Beast aura, so she believed Kentucky wouldnʼt be able to transform there due to the lack of space. She, on the other hand, didnʼt need that.

*Tud, tud, crash, bum...*

And yet, in the same way that Rean played with her, so did Kentucky.

Well, Rean didnʼt see that way. ”Kentucky, your movements lack grace...

Kentucky snorted. ”Hmph! Thatʼs because Iʼm not a bitch like you. Iʼm a demon beast. I only know these moves at all because Roan drilled them in my mind.”

Roanʼs training methods were all-encompassing, and Kentucky had to suffer- Ahem... had to follow them during these thousands of years. Roan accounted for every possible scenario, including ones where Kentucky wouldnʼt have space to take his Minokawa Form.

Rean shrugged, not minding that.

Finally, the girl stopped. ”Fuck you! I give up! This is not fair at all! You are the entire cultivation realm above me.” As she said that, her blood claws and wings disappeared, as did the blood spears she kept summoning. Surprisingly, she wasnʼt tired. Itʼs just that she understood she wouldnʼt get anywhere.

Seeing that she stopped, Rean spoke to her. ”Well, that was fun. By the way, you are quite strong for your level.”

”Obviously! Donʼt compare me to the likes of that trash over there!” She answered while pointing at Rifindio.

Rean then looked to the side, where Rifindio was watching. ”Hey, Rifindio, what is the Divine Camazotz Form you mentioned?”

”Uh? Oh! Right!” Rifindio came back to himself and joined. The girl was still glaring at him, the meaning behind her eyes obvious. Had Rean not intervened, she would have killed him. Rifindio could only scratch the back of his head in shame, but there wasnʼt anything he could do since that was the truth. ”Ahem... The Divine Camazotz Form is something that only those with over 95% Camazotz Bloodline Concentration can take.”
