Realizer of Death : The Reaper

Time passed quickly, and it was already late afternoon. The sun's position has shifted to the west, but the sky still looks bright, with a few clouds covering the light.

Under the sunlight and clouds, a small dot was moving at high speed, and two large dots were following behind it.

That tiny dot is Tenku. He dashed through the air using compressed Qi as his foothold while two big dots behind him was Fenrir with a whirlwind enveloping their body. The two monsters kept chasing Tenku from where he slaughtered the Drakes.

One human and two monsters had circled Badaling National Forest Park several times, and the latter had slowly closed their distance from the former.

"Damn! Why do they keep chasing me!? I sense that several high-level Realizers and old practitioners from the four major families have come to this area. The wounds on Fenrir's body must have come from them. The auras of those people should be stronger than mine because I had suppressed my cultivation base to the Earth Origin realm.

But why are these two monsters still following me!? Shouldn't their attention be directed towards those strong people!?" Tenku clicked his tongue and kept thinking about why the two Fenrirs kept chasing him.

He was confused as to why the two monsters had only locked onto him as their target. Tenku suspected they kept following him because he had killed the Drakes and saw him as a threat. But he quickly shook his head and didn't want to think about it too much as the two monsters were getting closer to him.

If the two Fenrirs were chasing him from the ground, then Tenku wouldn't care about them. But they could also run through the air, and their speed surpassed him. He had a headache when he saw that sight. Tenku didn't know that Fenrir could fly.

He had tried to attack the two monsters to slow them down and used the opportunity to keep his distance from them. After that, Tenku intended to hide so Fenrir couldn't find him.

Unfortunately, his efforts were useless as both Fenrirs were in a berserk state and ignored his attacks. When Tenku shot them with the Golden Revolver, the monsters would block it with their bodies and not get hurt. Then Tenku tried to slash them with his scythe, and the two Fenrirs countered it with their claws.

The result was the opposite. Tenku's speed decreased when he attacked, and his distance from the monsters became closer. After that, he decided not to try to do anything else and just quickened his pace.

So whatever Tenku did was futile because the speed of the two Fenrirs didn't decrease. The longer Tenku runs away from them, the closer they will be. It was only a matter of time before that Fenrir caught up with him.

"I have to find a way to get away from them." Tenku racked his brains hard and kept looking for ways to get rid of the two Fenrirs. While thinking, he compressed a large amount of Qi in the Devourer Scythe and was ready to attack the monster whenever needed.

Tenku suddenly raised his eyebrows when he realized he had arrived at one of the valleys in Badaling National Forest Park with a river flowing between the hills.

Tenku smiled slightly after thinking of an idea. He increased his speed and took a sharp dive toward one of the hills. Just as Tenku had thought, the two Fenrirs also followed suit. He didn't slow down his speed even though there were only a few meters between him and the ground. But before Tenku collided with one of the hills, he stopped his footsteps forcefully and turned to the right.

Booooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmm!

The two Fenrirs hit the ground but were unharmed and crushed the hill instead.

"As expected of a seventh-level monster, they weren't injured even though they collided with a hill." Tenku responded calmly because he knew it wouldn't slow down the two Fenrirs. After all, the plan was just about to start from now on.

Tenku kept moving and maneuvering between the hills to escape the pursuit of the two monsters. As they slowly grew further apart, one of the Fenrirs suddenly swung its claws at Tenku and sliced the hill into five pieces.

Slash!

Tenku's face changed drastically, and he quickly twisted himself to avoid the attack. He didn't think that one of the Fenrirs would attack him. They must have become annoyed that their prey kept running away.

"Huh!" Tenku was surprised that the two Fenrirs suddenly disappeared, and they reappeared in front and behind him. They didn't want to give Tenku a chance to breathe and run away from them again. The two monsters swung their claws simultaneously and intended to turn him into minced meat.

"Shit!" Tenku gripped his scythe tightly and swung it in a full circle. The weapon was fully compressed with Qi and could easily block a full blast from a sixth-level monster. But it was a different story if the opponent was Fenrir in a berserk state, let alone two.

Clank!

Spurt!

Tenku managed to withstand their attacks but was blown away and vomiting blood. He felt that the blood within his body was churning, and his internal organs were about to be crushed. Fortunately, he has a very strong physique. So Tenku can survive the attack.

But before Tenku could stabilize himself, the two Fenrirs reappeared nearby and opened their jaws. They wanted to rip him apart with their fangs.

"It's dangerous!" Tenku gritted his teeth and quickly switched his Phantasmal Object to a Golden Revolver. He loaded it with third-level monster cores and shot it toward their throats.

Bang! bang!

Arh-woooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Fenrir howled in pain as they quickly covered their mouth. Tenku didn't waste the opportunity and escaped from their encirclement. But the two monsters wouldn't let him go easily.

They quickly appeared again on the right and left of Tenku. The two Fenrirs looked at Tenku with bloodshot eyes and swung their claws with elemental wind compression.

Slash!

"I can't dodge this attack." Tenku turned his scythe into a greatsword and compressed all the Qi and genesis power from his body into his weapon. After that, he injected sword intent and slashed while rotating his body.

Sword of Demolition!

Boooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

Tenku blocked the attacks from the two Fenrirs, but one of the wind blades from their claws managed to hit him.

Spurt!

Blood spurted, and a large gash was created on his back. Tenku gritted his teeth to endure the pain and changed his weapon to Golden Revolver. He tossed two fourth-level monster cores from the Drakes towards each Fenrir and shot them.

Bang! bang!

Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmm!

Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmm!

The two monster cores exploded violently, and smoke covered the area. Both Fenrirs howled as they lost sight of their target. Tenku quickly threw himself into the river when their vision was interrupted.

Splash!

Arh-woooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

One of the Fenrirs howled, and the wind cleared the smoke around the area. The two monsters searched the surroundings for Tenku. Unfortunately, their target had disappeared completely, and they couldn't sense his presence.

Arh-woooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Fenrir howled in rage. They stayed there long and looked down at the river below their feet. But then the two monsters left after confirming that the target was no longer in the area. They dashed through the air at high speed and quickly disappeared from the valley.

Not long after the two monsters left, a head slowly popped out and surveyed the surroundings. That person is Tenku. After throwing himself into the river, Tenku quickly isolated his aura, held his breath, and stopped the bleeding on his back with Qi so the two Fenrirs would not discover his presence.

If the monsters knew where he was, they might blow up the river to find him. Tenku felt that the two Fenrirs kept chasing him because they thought he was a target that had to be killed no matter what. He still didn't know what the reason was.

Tenku suspected that it was because he had slaughtered werewolves and Drake. It made him look like a threat to the other monsters. But that was just a guess, and he wasn't sure about it yet.

"Fortunately, the two monsters didn't linger in this place and left immediately after not finding me." Tenku sighed and looked around again before he swam to the riverbank.

After Tenku arrived at the riverside, he quickly ran towards the cave where Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue were recuperating. Even though Wang Haotian protected the two, he was still worried about their situation. If the two Fenrirs returned to the scene looking for Tenku, that old man wouldn't be able to fight the monsters.

It didn't take long for Tenku to reach his destination. He checked the surroundings again to ensure the two Fenrirs weren't there. After he was sure, he walked slowly closer to the place.

But just as Tenku was about to enter the cave, a rock shot at him at high speed. He didn't panic and caught on to it easily. Then he crushed it into dust.

"Is this your way of greeting me after I managed to escape those two Fenrirs, master? They almost killed me." Tenku looked in the direction where the rock had come from and said in annoyance.

"Ahaha... I knew you would come back safely, brat. I'm just checking if you're real or fake. If you were the real one, you could catch the rock easily." Wang Haotian chuckled and walked out of the darkness of the cave.

"Does anyone besides me and you know that the two girls are recuperating here? Who is the person impersonating me? I want to see if we look alike or not. " Blue veins popped on Tenku's forehead when he heard Wang Haotian's answer.

"Of course, no one could impersonate you, who had only been in Beijing a few days and was rarely seen except at competitions. I was joking…." Wang Haotian replied, but his words were interrupted by footsteps inside the cave.

Tap! Tap! Tap!

"Tenku!!"

Wang Ruyue and Huang Yuxin ran, screaming his name, and then threw themselves into his embrace.

"Eh?" Tenku was surprised by their sudden action. Just as he was about to say something, he realized that the two girls were crying in his arms. Tenku sighed and stroked their heads gently to calm them down.

"Thank god you came back safely! I will feel guilty for the rest of my life!" Huang Yuxin said and sobbed like a little girl.

"Yes! I have heard it all from grandpa! Please don't do that again! You can't put yourself in danger for us!" Wang Ruyue added and hugged Tenku even tighter.

"I'm sorry to have worried you two. But I have to do it. If I return to the cave, the two Fenrirs will chase me here. It will be very dangerous for you. So please don't cry. Didn't I come back safely?" Tenku said softly, and his heart felt warm because of the two girls' concern for him.

"Yeah, it's the best! Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to forgive ourselves if something bad happened to you. But… why is your body wet, and what is this liquid?" Wang Ruyue and Huang Yuxin separated themselves from Tenku and checked what was bothering them when they hugged him. The two girls were startled when they saw a lot of red liquid in their palms.

"Blood!" Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue said in trembling voices.
