Chapter 1182 1101: Seal, Release!
The ape king's overly-developed body gave it immense endurance. Its body is a weapon in itself, it's very perilous to be on the receiving end of its brutish strength. The duo with a perfect understanding took advantage of the ape king's inability to fly and limited attack range in order to gang up on the creature. However, it's far from enough to bring this enemy down.
Hence, the next instant they launched more attacks but this using their respective, at least they tried because, in the next instant, there was a terrific explosion that sent them flying.
KABOOM!
''Gah!''
''Guh!''
The impact broke a few of their ribs and they coughed a mouthful of blood, however, this was not the end as they heard a terrific roar coming from the crater.
Gracier's chest tightened and she focused on the emerging black figure. The blurry figure shot out from inside the smoke at an alarming speed.
Suddenly, Saeko couldn't react, she coughed a mouthful of blood while falling on her knees, the damage taken during the last attack was more than she thought.
Meanwhile, Gracier couldn't escape in time and she couldn't even catch a firm glimpse of the attacker before a heavy feeling came for her.
She hastily raised her scythe in front of her, putting it in between herself and the attack. The blade only managed to mitigate the attack as the attack and the blade landed easily on her body.
BANG!
Gracier got slammed into the distance like someone fired a missile with her body as the projectile. She spewed an impossible amount of blood but that wasn't the end, as if teleporting the ape king appeared beside the flying Gracier and impaled her body with its sharp claw.
Saeko on her knees witnessed everything and was unable to intervene, she even forgot how to speak, seeing Gracier, her sister-in-law, possibly her sister getting impaled like this broke something inside her.
''!''
Saeko vanished and reappeared before the ape king before chanting. 𝘧𝓇𝗲𝑒we𝙗noѵ𝑒l.𝐜o𝘮
"Seal, release! Muramasa!''
A black tattoo around the handle of her katana disappeared from the sealing bracelet. An aura that took the form of a boundless sea of blood came from the red katana, and it enveloped the ape king and Saeko who seemed to have vanished after saying those words.
The expression on the ape king froze up as it looked at the source, a figure glistening in a deep red hue.
"Ahaha…"
A Saeko with red hair and eyes greeted the ape king eyes flashing in bloody glints. There was a single horn in the middle of her head.
An ecstatic smile appeared on Saeko's face. However, when she saw Gracier who was still pierced by the ape king she immediately turned serious.
A flash of red light appeared in her eyes. The ape king shuddered the moment Saeko gazed at it. An alarm instantly blared within itself, the ape king subconsciously wanted to lob Gracier far away but it was already too late for that.
Bwam
A dull explosion came from the Brutal ape king's arm. It stared in disbelief as blood splattered all over its face, that intense pain was surely real, everything was real…
The next thing it knew, its own arm went missing!
Bellowing in agony, the ape king couldn't care less about Gracier who fell along with the disappearance of its arm, the ape king was more concerned with being disarmed literally by this newcomer, its roar reverberated throughout the sky.
''It is fun to be out, little contractor it took you long enough to call me out. How mean of you but well, I forgive you.''
''Gorilla in making, let's play.'' Saeko giggled as she said those words.
And the ape king heard her, it suppressed the pained howl it was going to emit and it stared at Saeko with sheer terror in its eyes, it had a rather ghastly look right now, it didn't help that its arm was still bleeding profusely. This monster was now shaken to the core by this small figure in front of it.
''M..Monster..'' He uttered and the red-haired Saeko smiled brightly.
''Finally, it spoke when I thought he was mute with only muscle.''
The ape king couldn't care less the mocking tone the red-haired Saeko was using, he was not dumb and his instinct was telling him only one thing which was to 'Run'
Run as fast and far as he could. 𝒇𝘳ℯℯ𝚠𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜ѵ𝑒𝙡.co𝑚
The ape king didn't even hesitate, it charged into the forest leaving a trail of afterimages behind, as well as some blood. It just booked it!
Fuck avenging the death of its disciples and descendants. Sure, they cared about their own flesh and blood but it's only to the extent of caring, the preservation of their own lives came first. At least, for the ape king, his own life is more important than anything else.
Gracier's jaws dropped at the same time. She couldn't believe that this monster would run off just like that. A level 180, a Demigod's existence, even a monster should be somewhat dignified and befitting of its lofty title, right? Running like a chicken, is that something a monster like that would do?
True, if this was a human Demigod, he would probably choose death over dishonorable retreat. This logic didn't apply to the ape king since it's not a human. It had its pride but self-preservation ruled its thoughts more than the former.
Even the red-haired Saeko was shocked, she flinched in surprise when the ape king just dropped everything and ran like hell. She's slightly angered by this creature's rude behavior.
''You must be kidding me? When did I think it was my screen time to shine? Hell! No, it gonna end with you running away.''
A red glimmer flashed in her eyes. She unleashed her bloody aura, twisting her figure in a scary manner. It's a savage beast that came crawling out of an abyss, and an oppressive killing intent rained down in this area. Gracier who was slowly recuperating felt chills just by being close to this place. The next instant, the red-haired Saeko disappeared from her sight. She had become even more powerful.
