The four individuals stood in the middle of the crowd of Beasts. This was Rapt, Sorc, and the two Tribal leaders.
"Father, this is the blessed beast Rapt. Rapt, this is my Father, Gol, leader of the Droc tribe." Sorc introduced the two to each other as the Bull beast glared at Rapt.
"This is all your fault" the bull beast shouted at Rapt with rage filling his voice.
"Stop it, Troper." Gol said.
Rapt began to prepare for a fight as the beast clearly had a problem with him for some unknown reason. Before another fight could start Sorc and Gol stepped in between the two.
"What is going on with everyone acting strange, when seeing me? Is it because I look different from everyone else or that I'm not from this planet? "Rapt asked.
The beasts in the crowd were shocked by his questions as it showed that he didn't know anything about the situation, and that they didn't know anything about him. Murmurs could be heard in the crowd as the beasts began to ponder and express their thoughts and opinions about Rapt. This was the first time that they had heard of a blessed beast that was originally from their planet.
Pretty soon we saw every beast that roamed this territory would know of Rapt, the Blessed beast and the Outside. Who knew of unforeseen consequences this information bring the Rapt and those who wished to help him.
"Petra has begun to make his move and is causing a massacre as he makes his way here to find you", Gol stated.
"He's killing and eating the weak without hesitation and forcing the strong to join or die." Troper stated.
"How is this my fault, when I haven't had any contact with this Petra. He started this war because of his own ego and hunger for power."
With the two of them on edge, the father-son pair glance at each other as they tried to think of a way to keep the peace. Troper and Rapt could still be seen glaring at each other, whilst circling around the two standing in between them. Whatever points of argument they made didn't help dispel the rising tension.
"Rapt, what are you planning on doing to solve this issue?" Gol asked, trying to shift their attention to lessen the tension.
"I'm going to learn about this world and territory, get stronger, and then bring balance back to this territory" Rapt said
Which made Troper furious as he could sense that Rapt was far weaker than himself. "You're a weak excuse of a Blessed. I don't know why the Gods picked you, but ill rectify their mistake. I'll be the one to bring balance back to this territory, you waste of...."
He is interrupted as Rapt used the father-son duo to hide his body for a second and rushed pass Sorc before he jumped on Gol's back using it as a launching pad. While in the air Rapt watched as Troper mobilized his mana to use his element quicker the he had anticipated. His instinct screamed for him to dodge as he saw 5 water bullets form and began to move his way faster than those of Bortur. Rapt was forced to rapidly try to mobilize and fire his shock bolts to clash with the water bullets. Unlike Troper who could produce 5 bullets at once, Rapt had to do each one by one. This leads to him only making four bolts that vaporized four of the bullets. The last bullet hits Rapt in the side flinging him to away towards those in the crowd. They jump out of the way and slowly form a circle around the two similar to before.
Rapt got up slowly shocked by the power behind that one bullet. He had been launched over 8 meters away from where he originally was. Looking around he could see that Troper was laughing at him in the middle of the massive circle. "This is the blessed that the god's sent for us this weakling that can't fight against the power of someone in their supposed 'territory'. hahaha, I, Troper, will take the Mantle and lead the changes that this area needs."
"Anyone who dares disrespect the gods and their choice I will kill them. No one will take my second chance away from me. I will kill you!!!!!!!!!" Rapt shouted as he rushed towards Troper. Troper who was three grades stronger than him grinned. From his point of view, he saw Rapt's charge as a suicidal charge and he would be the Blessed after this.
"We must help him," Gol said as he prepared to intervene. Yet he was stopped by Sorc blocking his way. "Just watch", as he wanted others the see and feel inspiring phenomenon of Rapt risking his life to prove his superiority.
The crowd was watching intensely, perceiving this moment as the fall of the new blessed. What they saw next, they couldn't believe. Many even glanced at Gol thinking,' maybe he had weakened Troper more than I thought'.
Rapt had entered the instinctive state causing tunnel vision on Troper and his mana. During his rush Rapt could instinctively sense where the water bullets would launch from and react accordingly.
Troper had unlocked the second stage of the skill water bullet. Which reduced the cost needed to cast it, due to skill mastery, allowing him to fire many water bullets. In his mind he thought,' You'll get tired soon and I'll kill you with water cannon'. Water cannon was the upgraded version of water bullet that would combine the 5 water bullets into a densely compacted ball of water.
Dodging bullet after bullet Rapt was quickly closing ground as those of Troper's tribe waited for the inevitable outcome of the foolish charge against beast a three grades stronger than him. Troper watched with anticipation as Rapt crossed the 10….,8….,6….4 meters and began to prepare the water cannon.
Sensing the massive convergence of mana, Rapt sped ahead and once reaching the 2-meter mark. He feinted a jump as the cannon was fired leaving a massive hole in the ground as water vapor spread everywhere.
"This is your blessed someone too weak for my water cannon, hahahaha. I'll use his weak body as nourishment as I take the mantle of blessed." Troper proclaimed. Suddenly, he felt extra weight on his right side that was followed by a steadily increasing pain. Spinning around to look at what could possibly be attacking him. What he saw was Rapt digging into his side using his claws as a foot hold and a weapon. Enraged Troper attempted to shake Rapt, which was answered by Rapt digging his feet deeper to solidify his balance.
Gol thought,' even though he should've struggled to cause damage to Troper's hide he used the injuries from our early fight as a starting point'.
Seeing that it wasn't working Troper, attempted to fall on Rapt and crush him with his weight. Rapt promptly dislodged himself before he was crushed and jumped on his other side to inflict more damage. Taking advantage of the jump, Troper used his skill [water wall] to stop Rapt from reaching his other side or so he thought as Rapt used [discharge] to vaporize the wall. Landing on Troper's side, he started to inflict damage using the previous injuries caused by Gol again. The injuries he caused weren't reaching deep enough to cause fatal wounds, but they were draining Troper's health due to blood loss.
Troper hastily tried to right himself as the pain running through his body. When he got close, he suddenly had a bad feeling, spurring him to use more effort. He finally stood back up and shook with more vigor, feeling the weight release from his side. He turned to face the direction of the weight, to find Rapt's feather red from his blood and flesh still hanging from his claws. Now feeling anger at being heavily damaged by Rapt, Troper decided to play a trick on him,' I will pretend to give up and KILL him when he drops his guard'.
"Fine, Blessed one I concede" Troper said bowing his head, surprising everyone except for his Tribe as they had seen this trick before. He looked at Rapt expecting him to do like others and lower his guard. But what he found instead was three [shock] Bolts, one in his face with the other two targeting his injured sides. Due to his performance, he couldn't react in time. The bolts struck using his blood and the water from his attacks as conductors. Willing himself through the shock, he saw that Rapt charge in along with his bolts and was literally at his throat.
The others watched as Rapt sunk his teeth into Troper's neck and use his strength to throw him to the ground before stepped on his head and pierced his eye with his killing claw. Troper tried to struggle as he felt his eye being pierced and his neck being bitten, but it was useless as Rapt used the other claw slash his neck. Those in the crowd watched as the life left Troper's body, bringing the fight to its conclusion. What they didn't expect was that Rapt would Rip out his next and start eating him right there.
