Chapter 524: The Dreadlord X
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Three thousand points of Fright Energy!”
Grimm exclaimed, excited with what he had gained.
It also meant that nearly ninety thousand points of Fright Energy were dissipated from the Dark Shadow King, allowing Grimm’s hunter ability to absorb one-thirtieth of his Fright Energy.
And as the Nightmare Hunter, unless the black sun of the Nightmare World rose, he would give his all to absorb all the Fright Energy dissipated by his prey until the very limit!
“Boom!” The Dark Shadow King that had just recovered immediately got defeated by Grimm once again. Another two thousand points of Fright Energy were absorbed by Grimm. The Dark Shadow King that had recovered for the third time could no longer be called as a Dreadlord Servant as his body had turned into a normal Fallen one in the Nightmare World of about only ten meters tall.
“You…”
Grimm had no intention of letting him go, wanting to attack the Dark Shadow King again. Yet he sighed and turned back to face the Gemini King.
Bam!
Both enormous bodies backed away a couple hundred meters from each other. Grimm touched the skin on his palm that was sliced open and looked at the inflating yet twisted body of the Main Gemini.
“Demonizing?”
The Gemini King’s power was probably the strongest among all the other Dreadlord Servants that Grimm had seen. Despite facing the demonizing Gemini King with his current self, Grimm gradually felt weaker.
“Repulsion!”
Even though Grimm did not know how far the distance between the Nightmare Mist Dreadlord and himself was, he could sense clearly that the binding effects of the Nightmare Mist caused by the spiral mark was becoming stronger and stronger.
Not having a choice, Grimm had to use his repulsive energy for convenience sake.
Not having any means of fighting the Gemini King, Grimm ran wildly toward the two Dreadlord Servants that were attracted by the breath emitted from the Nightmare Mist Dreadlord’s spiral mark.
The sound of the ground shaking could be heard. Like a starving wild beast, Grimm attacked any prey that could fit in his belly.
These two made a pact to hunt down the so-called Nightmare Hunter that was actually a Sorcerer that had fallen into the Nightmare World. Both were about twenty meters tall, one having oddly long and droopy ears while the other had a pair of black wings behind him. The feathers of the wings emitted a heavy nightmare breath.
“Malicious King, is that the fallen sorcerer? How strong!”
The long-eared Dreadlord Servant said with shock as he saw the ferocious giant ape rus.h.i.+ng toward him. This was because according to the Nightmare Mist Dreadlord, Grimm was just a Sorcerer that had fallen into the Nightmare World for forty years.
Growing to such lengths after only forty years was truly incredible!
Fluttering his black wings, the Malicious King muttered, “Listening King, I can feel an indescribable malice from him. The Nightmare Hunter certainly lives up to its name. He truly is a predator that hunts down other Fallen ones to survive!”
“Both of you, get out of the way!”
The Gemini King’s roar could be heard following Grimm’s giant footsteps.
The Malicious King and the Listening King were a couple ranks higher than the previous Dark Shadow King under the Nightmare Mist Dreadlord. However, the Gemini King’s anger grew as Grimm continued to grow through his hunter ability. The Gemini King could no longer be polite with all the other Dreadlord Servants that were fueling Grimm’s strength.
“Hmph!”
The Malicious King snorted coldly as he fluttered the black wings on his back. A distorted image of a horrifying monster appeared on his head as it howled hoa.r.s.ely.
Moments later, the distorted head rushed toward Grimm’s giant ape form.
On the other side, the Listening King yelled, “Careful!”
Yet the Listening King was referring to the Gemini King instead of Grimm as he said that.
A long tail sliced through the air. The Vice Gemini shattered half of the Malicious King’s head with his b.l.o.o.d.y claws as he said sinisterly, “Dumb thing, come again and this will be the consequence!”
“How dare you…”
The Listening King roared yet did not dare to make a move on the first servant of the Nightmare Mist Dreadlord. After taking a few breaths, the Malicious King who had just recovered from dissipating, appeared behind the Listening King as he glared at the Gemini King with hatred for the great amount of energy he had lost.
As fellow servants under the Nightmare Mist Dreadlord, that b.a.s.t.a.r.d…
“Puff!” The malicious beast face had dissipated while Grimm was defending himself from it. Thousands of Fright Energy was replenished into him in mere moments.
Grimm looked in surprise, it was the Gemini King that had attacked the Malicious King.
“Hmph, I’d rather they dissipate under my hand than let them become your source of strength!”
The Gemini King roared coldly at Grimm. The Vice Gemini stood on the Main Gemini’s shoulder, licking the blood on his claws sinisterly.
Yet he obviously did not know that any Fright Energy that dissipated around Grimm could be easily absorbed by Grimm.
From how Grimm had absorbed the Dream Watcher King’s Fright Energy after the Dream Watcher King was dissipated by the Tricolor Fairies of the fairytale law, his Nightmare Power that was named after the hunter appeared to be limited.
Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump!
Right at this moment, an enormous Dreadlord Servant about a hundred meters tall stepped toward them from afar.
“Hehe hehe, hunting the Nightmare Hunter? Such a thing is actually happening in my realm?”
This Dreadlord Servant had such an enormous body due to the fact that he was in his own realm, receiving additional support from his nightmare realm.
“Second servant of the Nightmare Bug Dreadlord, the Wailing King!”
The Gemini King muttered as he recognized this strong Dreadlord Servant.
Facing this strong Dreadlord Servant in his own nightmare realm, even as the first servant of the Nightmare Mist Dreadlord, the Gemini King could not help but show his respects to him.
“O’ Wailing King, let us bind this fallen Sorcerer together and wait for the Nightmare Mist Dreadlord’s arrival. The great Nightmare Mist Dreadlord will surely…”
Screech!
Suddenly, the screeching mouth on the Wailing King’s belly b.u.t.ton started to shriek. The shriek turned into an unknown attack as it attacked the Gemini King.
“Hehe hehe, the Nightmare Mire Dreadlord has already spread his will to me through the Nightmare Bug Dreadlord, that is to stop the Nightmare Mist Dreadlord’s ignorance.”
An odd magnetic field surrounded the Gemini King.
Both the eyes of the Gemini King in the magnetic field had turned red. The Vice Gemini remained absolutely conscious as he tried to control his boiling emotions while the Main Gemini was already a hundred percent demonized. The Gemini King’s body continued to grow and become twisted.
Yet it seemed like the Wailing King did not care for him whatsoever.
“Hmph, in my nightmare realm… unless the Dreadlord himself arrives, you can do nothing even when you are a hundred percent demonized!”
“Muahahahahaha!”
Right at this moment, a Dreadlord Servant with a giant palm of about fifty meters big appeared. This giant palm was even larger than the Dreadlord Servant’s body. A large mouth with neat and sharp teeth was in the center of the palm.
Hearing the ear-piercing laugh, the Wailing King looked in his direction with a heavy look.
“First servant of the Withering Corruption Dreadlord, the Glutton King.”
Not only the Glutton King, from a faraway distance, one after another, strong presences were gathering, with Grimm as their centerpoint.
