Both of them braced themselves for the impending, terrifying battle.During their journey, Znozor asked Branoc about how his family ended up in this dire situation.
Branoc shared his story,"We've been living in this forest for many ages, and that cave is our home. It was a normal day.My parents were working in the cave in the morning, and I woke up to go outside and play.As the sun began to set, I decided to return home.
On my way back, I saw a giant monster in front of the cave, shouting and screaming. I quickly hid behind a nearby tree, keeping a safe distance. I heard my mom and dad shouting from inside the cave, assuring me they were safe. I watched them attack the giant from within using crossbows and arrows, but nothing seemed to affect the monster due to its tough, thick skin. They told me to stay away from the cave and wait outside until the monster left, the monstrous creature, despite its immense size, couldn't enter the cave due to the narrow entrance.
Branoc continued, "As days passed, the monster remained unmoved, still standing there, waiting to strike. I couldn't bear to wait any longer. Anger and determination surged within me to kill that monster and save my family. So, I patiently crafted the perfect weapon for the task. Now that I've completed it, I am ready to confront and defeat that giant monster."
Znozor heard everything single thing branoc said.
While on the way branoc described the look of giant monster to znozor as a giant with one eye,two big hands and legs,three times the size of znozor.
They both were very focused for the battle, as they ventured deeper into the forest, away from the venom woods, relying on Branoc's deep knowledge.Finally, they reached their destination.Branoc alerted Znozor that they had arrived. Both of them concealed themselves behind bushes near the cave, scanning for the elusive giant monster, but it was nowhere in sight.
The entrance to the cave was shattered and enlarged, with rocks and boulders strewn about. Branoc, observing the cave's surroundings, was filled with fear, and his concern for his family grew. He began to scream in anger and worry for his parents, while Znozor, equally shocked, felt deep concern for Branoc.
Driven by their apprehensions and the grim thoughts that haunted them, they didn't waste a moment and dashed into the cave. Branoc was overwhelmed with emotions—screaming, crying, anger, and sadness all at once. As they entered the cave, they were met with a sight that left them traumatized. Limbs were amputated, blood stained the floor, and the giant monster was feasting on Branoc's family.
Unable to contain his emotions, Branoc fell to his knees, screaming, crying, and cursing uncontrollably. Znozor, already traumatized by the gruesome scene, tried to comfort and calm Branoc.The noise they made alerted the monster, which rose with menacing growls.
Branoc, consumed by anger, opened fire with his venomous bullets, shooting relentlessly.The monster shielded itself from the poisonous clouds by covering its face with its bare hands, preventing the gas from reaching it.
Even as Branoc continued to shoot in pain and anger, the cave gradually filled with poisonous gases. The monster clapped its massive hands, and in seconds, the venomous gas was expelled from the cave. Undeterred, Branoc persisted, firing explosive bullets. The monster extinguished the flames with its bare hands, seemingly unaffected. Znozor tried to restrain Branoc, but his bullets only fueled the monster's fury.
Ignoring Znozor's pleas, Branoc pushed him aside and drew his pocket knife, screaming, crying, and filled with anger. He yelled, "I'll kill you! What have you done to my mom and dad? How could you?" and charged at the giant monster. Both Branoc and the monster screamed furiously.
Znozor shouted at Branoc to halt his attack, but it was too late. Branoc closed in on the giant, but the monster swiftly dodged Branoc's attack and delivered a powerful blow. Branoc was sent flying and struck the cave wall, bleeding from his head and rendered unconscious.
Witnessing Branoc beaten and unconscious,bleeding, Znozor's shock turned to rage. He unleashed a demonic scream and, with eyes filled with fury, unsheathed his longsword. Znozor sprinted toward the giant, and an intense battle ensued, with parries, dodges, feints, and attempts at decisive strikes.
The cave began to crumble due to the explosive bullets Branoc had fired earlier. Znozor entered a frenzied state, relentlessly slashing his sword at the giant. However, the giant appeared impervious to Znozor's attacks, while Znozor himself endured severe blows from the agile monster.
Znozor swung his sword back and forth, striking at the monster, but the battle seemed endless, with both sides landing numerous blows. Znozor's strength waned as he bled profusely from his injuries all over his body.
Suddenly, the giant monster delivered a powerful punch, sending Znozor rolling across the dusty ground. Znozor was covered in mud and blood, and the light in front of his eyes began to fade.
The giant monster was laughing at znozor struggling to stand,he approached him, grabbed his head, and pulled him closer, ready to devour him. But Znozor, despite his dire condition, smiled and coughed blood, saying, "I am not any different than you" and he channeled his last reserves of energy into one final, desperate act.
His sword began to glow, its bright light enveloping the blade. With a shout,he sliced through the air with blinding speed. In a burst of radiant light, he executed a precise and devastating slash, severing the giant monster's head from its massive body.The creature's laughter turned into a guttural, choking sound as its head tumbled to the ground.He delivered a quick slash, severing the monster's head from its body.
The lifeless body of the giant monster collapsed with a thunderous crash, and the cave, already weakened from the intense battle, began to crumble and close in around them. With the cave collapsing around him, Znozor struggled to his feet, bloodied and battered but triumphant.
He wasted no time and, summoning his remaining strength, he hoisted Branoc onto his back and staggered out of the collapsing cave just in time. As they emerged into the light of day, the cave sealed shut, burying the monstrous horror forever, and leaving behind a memory of their epic battle and Znozor's incredible resilience.
