BXBX NOVEL Chapter 189 A Yeti?
Why would we want Monsters in our way-
\'That\'s just it...\'
The Growing Yeti growled.
\'I want Monsters in my way.\'
Why do you have to be like that-
Why don\'t you just leave it alone-
Mark planted a spike made of bones into the ground.
[Your Passive Skill "Combative Eyes[D]" activates!]
The snow below, the dead trees surrounding it, the mist. Everything disappeared.
Only the target remained.
[Your Title "Devourer" is starving!]
\'The comfortable road the two of you desire...\'
Mark clenched his fists and leaped at the Monster.
The Growing Yeti\'s swung open palm was dodged.
\'Isn\'t for me.\'
Mark\'s fist collided with the Monster\'s side.
\'Ha!\'
Despite hitting it with full force, its body had barely moved.
The Growing Yeti\'s open mouth was directed towards its enemy.
Before the freezing mist exiting that mouth could reach him, Mark had jumped back.
\'My first fight outside...\'
He extended his claws.
\'Let\'s make it a good one.\'
The Growing Yeti roared and raised its arms up.
And while its clenched fists were reaching for the ground, Mark was reminded of two enemies he had fought in the past.
\'That\'s...\'
Fully expecting an attack of the sort, the barrage of sharp ice spikes that exited the ground in a straight line did not even scratch him.
\'A freezing mist and this, huh? Interesting Skills, just like that one...\'
The enemies in question were the Lower Demonic Giant whose fists could make pillars of flames rise from the ground and the Corrupted Dark Elf Berserker who, in its final moments, could draw rifts on the ground by slamming its fists.
Ready to put those claws to work, Mark took a step forward.
But before he could move again, the Growing Yeti jumped up into the air.
His eyes followed, but it was surprising.
The Yeti had jumped extremely high, without even lowering its body beforehand.
Quickly, it started its descent.
Mark extended a hand upwards as he started moving back.
A Great Fire Ball was shot at the Monster above him.
Explosion-
The Growing Yeti growled as it continued its descent.
The handful of burns on its arms could barely be noticed.
\'Interesting...\'
Mark jumped back, and the Yeti\'s fists hit the ground before the rest of its curled-up body.
\'Shit-\'
He was still in mid-air, when the set of ice spikes that made a circle around the Growing Yeti\'s fists flew in every direction.
A spherical and translucent barrier appeared around Mark as he spread his wings.
Two ice spikes collided with the barrier and created two holes through it.
Mark flapped his wings to move upwards, but each ice spike grazed a thigh of his.
Uwoo-
The feature\'s on the Growing Yeti\'s face softened as it howled.
It had drawn first blood after all.
But the only reason Mark\'s body had been touched was,
Pierce-
Because he was focused on something else.
The Growing Yeti moved its gaze towards the back of its leg.
Its eyes widened. It growled.
An ice spike had pierced its left calf muscle.
An ice spike of its own.
Confusion and fury filled it as it turned back towards the enemy.
It had disappeared.
Wings.
The enemy had wings.
It raised its gaze.
The next instant,
Slash-
Slash-
The Growing Yeti winced as its back was carved.
Mark jumped back before it had even turned around.
The Growing Yeti\'s fist caught nothing but air.
\'Mm...\'
Mark stared at his claws for a second.
\'I guess fur like that can be useful.\'
[Your Title "Evolving Monster" nods.]
There was barely any blood on the tip of his claws.
The Growing Yeti launched itself forward, and Mark extended two palms towards it.
Flame Of Chaos, Great Fire Ball-
Flame Of Chaos, Great Fire Ball-
It crossed its arms defensively, and the attacks collided with its body.
Explosion-
The distance that separated the two wasn\'t a large one.
Which is why the Growing Yeti took full advantage of the smokescreen created around it to press the attack.
It tore the smoke in two by swinging its arms but,
The Monster wasn\'t where it had been standing moments earlier anymore.
Convinced that it would be behind it once again, the Growing Yeti immediately turned around.
Indeed, the Monster stood right where the Yeti thought it would be.
It stood, with its inflated chest held high.
The Growing Yeti focused on its vision, preparing to block whatever was about to come.
But the attack wasn\'t one that could be blocked.
[You have inflicted the Status Effect "Blindness"!]
[The Status Effect will last for 5 seconds.]
\'That\'s it, huh? No wonder it\'s E-Ranked...\' Mark thought as he quickly slipped behind the Growing Yeti.
The latter, deprived of its sight, had immediately raised its arms to cover its face and neck.
Before turning towards the Growing Yeti,
Destructive Tail Flick-
It was brought to the ground, face first.
Slash-
Slash-
Slash-
Mark jumped back just before the "Blindness" Status Effect ran out.
\'No matter how tough fur is, it\'s...\'
Both his claws and the snow below the Growing Yeti had been heavily tainted by blood.
\'No Armor.\'
RWAAAA-
Upon getting its sight back, the injured growled and growled while on its knees.
\'This pressure. Wind Magic, or...?\'
A greenish Aura started oozing out of the Growing Yeti\'s body.
Immediately, Mark\'s leg twitched.
\'This feeling. It\'s...\'
[The Title "Abominable Snowman" is staring at you.]
He lowered his gaze.
It felt as if his legs had been frozen solid.
\'So...\' Mark smiled nervously. \'Interesting.\'
The Growing Yeti growled.
And as soon as it started approaching,
[Your Title "Devourer" stares.]
[Your Title "Evolving Mosnter" stares.]
It stopped.
The Devourer and the Abominable Snowman stared at one another for a moment.
A second later, each leaped towards the other.
\'That\'s how I want it...\'
Mark barely dodged the Growing Yeti\'s front kick.
\'With no words necessary...\'
Its speed having increased as suddenly as it had substantially, Mark\'s claws couldn\'t reach the Abominable Snowman\'s elbow.
\'Try to kill me!\'
A freezing mist was about to leave the Growing Yeti\'s mouth.
