Reborn As An Evolving Monster

Chapter 293 Three-Way Fight At The Border II



"Time to die, little snake."

Ani, the Orcish Fiend and Commander Of Sloth, slammed her fists together.

'I was just getting used to it... And now this gets added to the mix?' The white-scaled Monster thought as it smiled nerveously.

The Commander waited a handful of seconds for an answer. There was no real reason to expect the Monster to be intelligent or capable of speech. But the fact that her punch has pushed it this far despite not putting one hundred percent of what she had into it did seem to point towards the Monster being intelligent when coupled with the fact that Lin was the one it had fought.

'Krista is doing a good job dodging their attacks. I can focus on this. Problem is...'

Ani stared silently for a bit before raising an eyebrow.

She let out a grunt before roughly scratching the side of her head.

"Are you really the one who fought him?"

Before the white-scaled Monster's lips could part, the ground below the Commander cracked as she launched herself closer.

'Faster than them... As fast as Elisa...?' Mark asked himself as the world around him started slowing down. Sensing little Mana from the approaching enemy, he closed his right eye and focused on his left. 'The Monsters stopped attacking once she got here. Must be a Commander too...? Did they recognize her as such and stop attacking?'

Ani's fist was dodged, but the air pressure could be felt.

Mark quickly jumped back.

This wasn't the kind of enemy he could afford to mess around with. Not that the thought had even crossed his mind.

Advanced Body Reconstruction-

"Mm." Ani nodded, seemingly unimpressed. "Guess you would have needed at least this much to go against him."

'If she's a Commander of Sloth, then Monsters in Sloth won't attack her... Maybe. They'll recognize her Authority as Commander and step back, run away, or, perhaps, even follow her orders. But this isn't Sloth. It's the Border. So... What will happen?'

With a frown on her face, Ani stared at the white-scaled Monster in front of her.

The one she had chased for killing Lin, a fellow Commander and Orcish Fiend.

She was slightly confused.

Spending all this time to find... This?

'A Feline and a Monster covered by scales. What Boa said checks out. Still, this doesn't make sense. The Feline moves well, but it's nothing special. This Monster... Is nothing special either. I dominate him in both Agility and Strength. I dominate him in both of those... Just like I dominated Lin in both of those. Then...'

A thick vein appeared on Ani's neck. Something that the white-scaled Monster did not miss. 

Her frustration and anger, Mark noticed them on her face. 

He knew she was coming.

"How could you lose to them...?" The Commander whispered, before moving forward with great speed.

  Mark's eyebrow rose questioningly as he dodged the first punch.

'How could you lose to them?'

And the second punch.

'How could you lose to them?'

And the third punch.

"How could you lose to such weaklings?" Ani whispered as she stopped.

Mark stepped back.

'Her speed is... She's-'

Before he could move a muscle, her fist collided with his stomach.

UGH-

"HOW THE FUCK COULD BE WEAK ENOUGH TO LOSE AGAINST THIS??" Ani shouted as the white-scaled Monster was launched away rolling on the ground.

Cough-

Ugh-

With wide eyes, Mark stared at the sky above.

Blood went down the side of his mouth as he coughed.

One hit. Just one hit.

One hit was all it took, for his stomach to be crushed.

Despite his tough body and muscles, one hit.

Advanced Body Reconstruction-

Mark lay his gaze on the unmoving Commander, and slowly rose to his feet without looking away for even a second.

'I can dodge if I focus on her and her only. All my focus... Just to dodge. Hitting back would be difficult. I'll have to switch targets. Right now, it feels like-'

Mark jumped back. Just as he thought it would, a huge tentacle was slammed powerfully right on the spot he had been occupying less than a second earlier.

Ani immediately clicked her tongue. Her annoyance grew.

'...'

Mark jumped back.

'From this distance, I should be able to dodge her. Mmh. The way she's staring at them... She's not commanding them. If anything, she sees them as a hindrance. If that's the case, then her focus will be split too? Yarnha didn't want anything to do with the Demon Lord Of Sloth... It might be the same for the Monsters occupying the Border.'

"Are you thinking in there, or did you beat him with pure luck or something?"

The white-scaled Monster scratched its head.

A tentacle swiped the area, and Mark jumped up to dodge.

This was an important moment for him, so he stared with great interest.

Will the tentacle stop before getting to the Commander, or will it stay on its way?

Ani let out a sigh.

Traveling all this way?

Traveling all this way to see those who had killed Lin? Those who defeated the one she had never managed to beat?

All this way for this?

It felt a bit...

A tentacle was slammed against Mark's back, launching him to the ground right away.

His body bounced and cracked that ground, but his eyes remained open.

  With her right hand, Ani scratched her left.

Her left arm was extended forward.

With full force, the approaching tentacle that Mark had dodged was slammed against her palm.

"This..." Ani whispered as her hair flew back from the air pressure. "This is the worst." 

The white-scaled Monster's eyes widened, and a slight smile appeared on its face.

'Those... Could blow me away. She stopped it... Just like that?'

The Krishren quickly pulled its tentacle back, surprised that the heavy and large limb had been stopped.

Unlike what Mark had expected at first, the Krishrens didn't obey or fear the Commander.

As Monsters of the Border, they only had one goal.

Keep those from one side of the Border, on that side of the Border.
