Chapter 27 Death Is Just Another Part Of Life...



*ROAR*

I swiftly flew down to another branch before running and jumping to one on the same level to avoid being thrown down alongside the obliterated tree.

This carried on a few more times until the creature seemed to have gotten fed up with me and finally began fighting close range as if the long-range attacks simply weren\'t enough suffering for me and so it had begun to get close and personal to make sure that I suffered even more than I already am.

"If I had my other arm." I let out a gasp while stealthily hiding behind trees, moving around them and with a sense of randomness to confuse the creature.

"YOU CANNOT DEFEAT ME!" it bellowed but its voice was not what had caused me to freeze.

The smell of burning wood wafted into my nose and forced me to look behind at the orange landscape that looked like hell on Earth, only getting closer by the second.

\'I need to run\' I thought to myself, yet the creature\'s next words threw that thought out of my mind.

"You think you can run away?" it asked, this time its voice symbolizing one of a calm woman rather than the bellows of a crazed one.

I did not answer of course. What kind of person would I have to be to answer to such an obvious trap?

"I see... So you aren\'t going to answer... Well, that\'s fine. I wonder though, how would your family look at you if they saw you like this?"

My movement halted while my eyes widened before eventually narrowing with a cold expression.

"What were their names again? Well, does it really matter? They are dead anyway, right?" I clenched my hand into a fist.

"Dead people can\'t tell you what to do, yet they watch over you all the time. Imagine how disappointed they would all be after seeing that their son had come out as such a failure." The creature chuckled while I simply stood behind one of the trees completely ignoring the oncoming flames.

Blood trickled from the center of my palms as my fingernails pierced them, dropping to the ground without a single audible sound.

\'It\'s trying to provoke me...\'

"To think you would be the last of their family bloodlines. How sad they must be. Imagine having someone so incompetent, so stupid, so weak and so pathetic as the sole anchor to your bloodline? they mut think that you probably disgraced their famil- no... You must have disgraced their entire race." It chuckled again.

I could feel the blood boiling under my skin.

My teeth had been gritted so hard that my gums were bleeding.

I was feeling so much rage, not because it spoke ill of my family even though that happened to be an element, but because I kind of believed its words...

I felt weak.

I felt useless.

I felt powerless.

They were all feelings I felt when standing before creatures of this era, and they also were the same feelings I felt when standing before the elves.

"Don\'t you just feel so w-" It bit its tongue when it began feeling something strange in the air.

For some reason, the air around it had started to feel heavy while breathing seemed to take more effort than it had previously done.

Its eyes darted all around the area but it simply could not find me.

The only thing it could see were the fires in the distance getting closer by the second.

It was almost sure that I would have come out by now, but then why couldn\'t it see me?

Was I hiding somewhere?

Its heart rate had started to quicken but it did not understand why.

I was but a small bipedal animal.

Wait...

"Are you a dwarve!? An Elf? A mix-breed?" I roared yet it did not receive an answer.

It wasn\'t shaking, nor was it even scared of me... then why, why was I feeling so anxious?

What was this feeling of dread?

*BOOM*

My body moved like a blur, yet it still wasn\'t fast enough to completely miss the gaze of the T-rex. Hell, the T-rex even thought that the speed was slow compared to other creatures or even itself.

It growled once more before letting out a sky-shaking roar to once again decimate the tree I stood on. However, to its dismay, it could only watch and try to follow my figure as I continued to jump from one tree to the other without hesitation or fear in my eyes.

Of course, I was feeling fear. My hands were shaking uncontrollably while my breath was nothing but ragged.

On would be capable of seeing the immense dread and helplessness if they were to look me directly in the eyes, but this creature simply did not have that luxury.

Crouching down once again, I took the biggest jump yet since I could not see any trees nearby, and as if my jump was some kind of signal, it widened its eyes and snapped its maw towards me, ready to shoot out another roar.

Seeing this, I could not help but imagine my body turning into dust the moment that roar reaches me and so the determination within my eyes only burned more erratically.

It was do or die, and I was not about to die after everything I had just gone through.

I could see that I could not get to the other branch in time without any interference.

I did not have enough time to create anything that would help me in this situation.

The desperate nature of the situation began to seep into my mind and body.

I could feel every single muscle in my body scream at me to let it rest, yet I ignored them.

\'I just have to get the right timing...\' I finally thought.

It seemed like the world around me had dramatically slowed down and my thinking speed had reached a new height.

\'Maybe this is what being on the boundary between being alive and dying does to you\' I let out another sigh as my eyes finally sharpened while my new black irises with a crimson halo within them became oddly cold and distant.

My eye darted towards the T-rex that was opening its mouth to let out another roar while my hand reached back and grabbed something from the belt of my pants.

\'I\'m not going to be the one who dies today... 8 Points into strength!\'
