Kaiser parried it with his trunk. He managed to stopped the attack but one of his trunk's point got cracked. Kaiser felt a little pain on it and now he realize the he can't engaged close quarter combat with this silver bear. Both of them backed off few meters away from each other.
The bear now knew his advantage and didn't waste time, lunged his self on the black beetle. He dashed again and appeared just above in front of Kaiser but flames suddenly covered his body. The silver bear felt the danger of his situation and tried to change the trajectory of his landing away from Kaiser but it's too late. Kaiser lunch himself by jumping using his six legs and he successfully stabbed the side of the silver bear with one of the sharp point of his trunk with flame.
The bear grunted in anger as he landed on the ground with his burning side. He rolled over the ground to extinguish the flame. He was successful but now we can see the burned flesh of his side with a gory deep wound.
The bear still stand bravely on four and glared on his opponent. Kaiser was amazed by the silver beer's resolute. He focused the flame on his trunk and it was no ablazed like a fiery two headed spear. The bear's silver claw increased it's length too. With both of them readying for the final attack that will surely deliver their opponents to death, they both lunged forward. The bear charged bravely with four his for limbs and the greater beetle scittered fast with his blazing trunk pointed ahead. The two finally met and exchanged their attack. Kaiser's trunk pierced one of the bears arm and pinned it to his chest whose also pierced by the fiery sharp point of the trunk. One of the silver bear was successfully pierced Kaiser's elytra and it damage Kaiser's inside.
The silver bear release it's final roar before his whole body was ignited. Kaiser shrugged the bear if his trunk and also felt intense pain as the claw on his back was pulled out. Ignoring the pain, Kaiser stared at his second opponent who bravely fought him. He was honored to face such a brave beast.
....
What's with his deal? I didn't even want to steal his den! I would definitely find another new one if he hadn't came out and attacked me. But here we are now. At least I'm honored and proud that I killed such a powerful and brave beast. I guess his territorial and by just stepping on his ground, I am already an enemy.
I manipulated an orb of flame and intensified the flame engulfing his dead body. Finally, the golden lights covered me and I was surprised that it even healed my wound on back. I felt it closing and my core heating up by the surge of energy entering it. He has more energy than hundreds of termites. This intense burning feeling in my core was like when I engulf a battalion of termites in flame.
Finally, I recovered with the injury and I felt more powerful now with those lots of energy. The figure of the silver bear was till burning and the smoked rose up to the dawn colored skies.
"Brother amazing!"
"You strong brother! "
"I can kill it too!"
"Now, now settle down. We didn't intentionally want to kill him nor steal his den, it's just that we accidentally entered his territory and by doing so, the bear attacked us." I don't want them to grow believing that killing is awesome.
"Bear?" Kira tilted her head in confusion. Oh. Unfamiliar word!
"Yes! Creatures that looks like that are called Bear." Everyone nodded in understanding a new word.
Without further ado, I entered the cave with my siblings trailing behind me. The cave was made of rock as it's wall and solid soil as a floor. We entered deeper and we felt that the temperature was nice and cozy. There was a pile of leaves on the innermost part of the cave. It was all brownish, this must be where he is sleeping. It's ours now! Sorry and thank you silver bear!
My siblings ran around cheerfully at our new home while I settled on the pile of dried leaves. I'm the most tired of us because I was the one walking and I just fought the owner of this cave.
Since they were not hungry because they've been eating the whole time I was Walking, I'll take a nap for now.
...
"Edo?"
The Baroness asked confusingly. But after few seconds, she burst into laughter.
"I don't know any Edo! Now, get your filthy self out of my mansion yard! Look at you! I am sure you just picked that dirty clothes who once belong to a noble! I don't care about what you are about to say! You are filthy! Guards!"
She called for a her guards and just a second, I was already surrounded by armored men with their swords just few meters away from my neck.
"Get out now child if you don't want to ge-"
He's sentence was cut-off and later turned into gurgling sound which was the same for every guards around me. They then exploded into meat bomb splashing their inner parts and bloods on me, the maids escorting the Baroness and herself.
From where once the guards stood, a shadowy figures rose up from their corpse, red menacing eyes glaring at the baronness and an eminent sinister aura radiating from the shadows of the entities.
A woman's scream can be heard from the back of the Baroness and she quickly look at who made the sound. She saw one of her 4 makes running away while screaming. While the others had true fear in their face. All of her maids was sure to run away from this child at any second so the Baroness didn't think any further and run away pushing the maids behind to stall time for her.
Suddenly, the maid who first ran exploded into another meat bomb painting the marbles and green grass of the Barons house. Another shadowy figures emerge from the gory corpse and glared at the Baroness. The Baroness instinctively halted her movement fearing that she will be the next explosion.
"Stop this now! I have money! Alot of it! Just tell me how much you want and leave this place. Now!!!"
The Baroness screamed her proposal in an arrogant manner with her last words clearly conveying anger.
Edo looked at the Baroness's eyes and he saw both fear and anger. He then shift his gaze towards the other three cowering maids. They flinched when Edo's gaze landed at them. One of them even flop on the ground while the other two stepped back few times not daring to take another fearing for their life.
"Spread my name. Edo." He said. The three were confused and did not understand what it means first. But when they realized that their lives are being spared, they quickly grabbed the maid who fell down and runs away.
The Baroness screamed in anger towards the lowly maids of her, running away before their master. She raised her hands and an ice spear as long as her arms materialised In front of her. Before she could even launched it towards the maid, a shadow hand crushed it. And that had instantly made its way to the Baroness's heart. The Baroness gurgled when blood surge out of her mouth as the hand made of darkness crushed her pumping heart. Her white dress whose tainted by blood earlier was now already dark crimson.
Her vision turned hazy and her consciousness drastically disappearing. The last image she saw before she died was Edo's back walking away from her and shadow figures following him.
