Lucien, stood still while the beast attacked him with all his might.
Boom
" Ahh !"
Lucien shouted as he was sent flying, blood flowing from his mouth.
'Damn it. Am I paralyzed, only by the aura of that beast? '
Lucien asked, trying to move in all directions.
What happened next was a slaughter, where Lucien was being sacked by the beast.
'Hmm, he's going to die, and will not reach that state again?'
Chris asked sadly. That was the real reason for this slaughter, he was trying to make Lucien, releasing that power again.
Lucien, who had been trampled several times by the beast, was deep in thought.
'Why ... this idiot, not for the fight?'
" Grrr !"
" Argh !"
As the beast snarled, he stopped several times on his body. Lucien was moaning with pain, parts of his organs were already visible, much blood had already leaked from his body, and he had no more strength.
'Goodbye ... Dad ... and Mom.'
'Maybe ... We'll meet again ... In another life.'
...
Unknown location;
'Where am I?'
Lucien asked, confused, looking sideways, he seemed to be on a very beautiful plain, and a little familiar. Looking back, he saw a straw house, though it was ugly, it came with a nice smell of tea, and it looked very comfortable.
'Ah understood. I'm dead.'
Walking with slow steps, and weak to the thatched house, Lucien knocked twice on the door, seeing no one answered, he simply opened it.
'... I hope the owner does not mind.'
After that though, he took a cup, and put some tea, which was on the stove.
The house was very comfortable inside, it had a table, two chairs, a wood stove, and a window that faced a beautiful backyard full of trees and plants.
Sipping hot tea, he felt very comfortable, the weather was great, and he did not have those annoying mosquitoes bothering him.
"Well, who would say, I have visitors."
There was a beautiful voice in surprise. This voice was clearly female, and it sounded like a melody.
Hearing this voice, Lucien's heart, seemed to fail for a second, while his eyes and hands trembled strongly. Turning, quickly, he felt his red eyes, as long as a saltwater pond, came out of them.
* Crack *
With a hollow noise, the mug, once in his hand, fell to the floor and cracked.
"Y ... You?"
Lucien asked, stammering as tears fell from his face. In front of you, stop, she was a beautiful woman, almost identical to what his father looked in the frame handmade.
"M ... Mom?"
Releasing these words, Lucien, as fast as lightning, ran to the woman as he held her. He was even happier when he felt her arms delicate, hugging him back.
"It's good to see you ... Son."
The beautiful lady spoke, while a solitary tear fell from her right eye.
...
After a few minutes hugging his mother, Lucien finally calmed down, he then pressed his mother with many questions; where has she been? Why did you abandon him? And many things related.
Lucien's mother refused to give him answers, she simply closed her eyes and was silent.
"... Because? Why did you abandon me? ... Do you ... hate me? "
Lucien asked sadly.
Opening her eyes, frightened, Lucien's mother pulled him into her lap.
"Never say that again ... I love you, but, I had to leave, I was obliged."
She replied sadly.
"Because?"
"If I did not go, they threatened that they would kill him ..."
Hearing this answer, Lucien, was shocked, and very sad.
"Q ... Who was the bastard ... Who separated our family, I swear, that I will make him suffer."
"NO ... You ... You can not, no one can. This person is very strong, one of the strongest mortals. "
Lucien's mother spoke sadly.
"I can ... I met a guy named Chris, he said he was a God, and that he would give me a bloodline if I passed his test ... But ... I died?"
Lucien, he began, speaking happily. But then sadness flooded him as he remembered his supposed death.
"You did not die ..."
Her mother said, with a mysterious smile, she then pointed the delicate fingers at a screen that appeared in front of them. On the screen, he showed the Beast, Chris, and Lucien, who was unconscious, and almost dead. The Beast was almost giving the final blow to Lucien, his paw was a few inches.
"I ... I did not die?"
"No, you're still alive."
"But, of all that matters, I'm going to die, that beast, she's much stronger than me."
"That's not true ... You just have to believe in yourself, fight your ..."
Lucien's mother whispered, putting her finger in his little heart.
...
Lucien's mouth opened as he whispered.
"Heart..."
* Boooooom *
With a blast, a lot of dust rose into the air, completely obscuring Chris's view of the fight. He then grinned.
"..."
When the dust has completely disappeared, one can see Lucien and the beast. Lucien was already standing, while his right hand held the beast's paw, which had a shocked expression, and pain.
* Fuooon *
In the strong wind, a red aura leaked from Lucien's body, while his once closed eyes opened, revealing in full splendor, two crimson, bright eyes.
" Haaaaaa !"
Shouting, Lucien crouched on the ground, and trailed the beast, making it float in the air for a few seconds. Taking advantage of this moment, Lucien leaned with both hands on the ground, and with his back to the beast, kicked it strongly, throwing it up.
" Gwaaa !"
The Beast growled angrily as it fell with great speed toward Lucien.
Lucien, seeing the beast, came toward him, took three steps to the left, and turned away from her. Soon, the beast, began to invest against Lúcien, using his mouth, and paws, but due to the high agility of Lucien, he turned aside calmly, of all the attacks.
'I'm going to end this with my final attack ...'
Lucien thought as he concentrated all his Qi on his right arm, he then squeezed his fist and pulled his right arm back. Waiting for the beast, coming close, like a trigger, he punched forward with all his might.
"Die!"
" Gawwwh !"
Man and Beast, they shouted, as they wielded arm and mouth, in their final attack.
* BOoooOOooooOom *
With a large explosion, large amounts of dust appeared on all sides.
...
After two minutes, finally, the dust subsided, and finally showed the winner of the battle ... Lucien, who had his right arm, sagging deeply. While the beast was unconscious on his side.
'He used Qi rudely, so he almost lost his arm ...'
Chris thought, happy for Lúcien to pass his second test.
...
