Chapter 6 - 06.Last Relic

"Damn!"

I couldn't sense him and I was getting more wounds and bleeding out

I couldn't move properly because of the large wound on my back

I was running in circles as I couldn't find him and he was getting more faster

I threw the 'Mana blast ' towards where I was standing and hurriedly took out the map the dashed towards the the glowing blue dot

I was jumping ,rolling and dashing left and right to avoid his attacks

I looked at the map again seeing I had reached the blue dot but nothing was around me

I thought that defeating him would open any hidden doors or something just like juggernaut

But I couldn't defeat what I could touch and his attacks could hurt me

Thinking of a way to defeat him suddenly I rolled to avoid his attacks

An idea came to mind and I condensed the 'Mana field' around only my body

So I could sense where his attacks were coming from and to avoid his attacks

Rolling to the left I concentrated mana and threw a 'Mana blast' from where the attack came from

But another attack came from behind and I had to duck to avoid it

After avoiding few more attacks and sending 'Mana blasts' towards him

'it isn't working'

I only had quarter of my mana left so I used 'Mana field' and spread it towards my surroundings

I used all my mana on this gamble this wasn't to locate him but the relic so I could take it and run away

I located a hole not far from my location and I dashed towards it

The invisible attack kept coming and I tried to dodge but they were too fast and too many

The closer I got to the hole the more powerful the attack became

When I was close enough I jumped into the hole and everything slowed down

As I felt warmth spread from my torso

I plunged into the hole with glowing light crystals in the walls and fell into water

"AHHHHHH"

I screamed as my wounds touched the water

There were two deep cuts one was not too deep the other one was going from my left shoulder to right of my torso

I couldn't feel my legs or my lower body it pained it move

My blood spreading in the water like color in clear water

Glow

Then the necklace and the map started to glow blue

Another glow came from the bottom of the water

Creak

A sound came and then the water levels started to go down

Not long after I was on the bottom

Huuuuu fuu

Looking at the glowing purple stone in the floating necklace

With my remaining strength I crawled towards it

Lifting my hand and grabbing it of the platform

My hand fell down and the stone on the necklace cracked as I no longer had any strength to go on

'No,no,no'

I was holding on life with my meger remaining strength

The glowing purple stone was now pouring out energy from the crack

Thud

'Huh'

The 'thing' that I had been fighting was now standing just few feet's away from me

Keeeeeeee

He shrieked and it looked like it was angry

I tried to gather some strength and raised and right hand holding the necklace

He slashed at me and it invisible attack hit the necklace cutting the stone in half

'NOOOOOOO'

But something happened and the 'thing' froze

An unsettling feeling came from the situation

The glowing stones around the walls were covered by darkness

The feeling of complete dread overcame me

Teeth and eyes could be seen in the dark and I was feeling the same feeling when I was fighting the juggernaut

'What is that!!!"

Death

Death was coming this time I had nothing to save me from it

The eyes were looking frantically around until every eye fixed their gaze on me

The darkness started to move towards me

The feeling of death overwhelming I could almost taste death

When the darkness tried to consume me something happened

[Fragment of ???? reacts]

[@#$%$@%#$ fragments reacts]

The darkness stopped and started to move again

Only this time it entered my body

My body was now filled with the monster of darkness

But the darkness didnt stop when it filled my body it kept going

"Ahhhhhhhh!!!"

I screamed but the monster didnt stop

After a while all the darkness was injected into my body

Huff huff

"Ahhhhhh!!!"

Now it felt like it was eating me from the inside I tried to contain it

But it was hungrily eating the insides of my body

It flowed out of my wounds and filled the surrounding

It continued to spread throughout the surrounding

Suddenly overwhelming pain bombarded me from the insides

My bones felt like it was breaking and regenerating

My flesh felt like it torn and stitched back together

I screamed to let out my pain but it became more painful by the second

Then my body was covered in darkness and my vision was gone

It felt like something was creating a place in my body for itself

My conscious faded In and out I no longer knew how much time had passed just wishing for the pain to stop

But after a while the pain stopped and I became unconscious

_________

After a long time I woke up rubbing my eyes I took a deep breath

Huuu fuuuuu

I opened my eyes and the pale clouds

Remembering what has happened i looked around and was surprised to find the destruction

Every building was either dust or cut in pieces

Looking at the system window floating besides my head

[Calculating rewards.....]

I looked at my body to not find a single wound or cut but my clothes were covered in blood

'What happened'

I stood up and started to walk towards the exist of the city while looking at the map

I didnt want anything in the city anymore and I didnt want to find the thing that did this destruction

I picked up speed as I walked and started to run

'What..?'

[Activating 'Mana field']

I spread the mana to find anything bit I got nothing

I was looking around while running and finding nothing

No zombie ,no spider,no centipede ,no monstrosity Nothing

"What did this...."

And I got my answer as soon as I asked question'
