Greed All For What Chapter 947

[ … words ]

Xigger was shocked too when he noticed the giant white beastly Warrog coming towards them. For a minute there he thought he was the one coming. Ragnarok’s beast form reminded him of his own beast form. He used to have white fur too. His conversion to vampirism changed that for him. 

But he didn’t dwell on what he lost for too long. He is in a critical situation in which the addition of an extra combatant will cause a drastic impact.

He would like to believe that Ragnarok is coming to help him but he knows that it is highly unlikely. What are the chances that Ragnarok will know that he is the father and still have enough familial love for him despite his current look and assist him in his fight against Sauron? 

So he shouted to Ragnarok, “I am your father. Don’t help Sauron. I am your father.”

The shout startled Sauron. His eyes of his beast form widened. He realized something then. It is that he has never seen Ragnarok’s beast form and that his beast form is very similar to that of Xigger’s. He realized that maybe Xigger is not lying about their relationship. A Warrog can help his father if that father is perceived to have been cheated and treated unjustly. And he did cheat Xigger out of his pack.

He began to suspect Ragnarok’s real intentions for coming over. Besides, if Ragnarok wanted to help, he didn’t need to destroy the totem. The assistance of any Mana entity no matter how weak is enough to tilt the scales of the battle. But if Ragnarok wanted to betray him, then destroying the totem is just appropriate.

So Sauron shouted at him, “Stay away Ragnarok. You’re not needed here.”

Ragnarok didn’t stop because of the two shouts. He already knows that Xigger is his father. Sauron learning about it doesn’t change the situation. He continued to approach steadily. He is going to do what he wants to do regardless of their opinions about it. His black teeth began to glow in preparation for his meddling. He infused it with as much Mana as he could.

Sauron and Xigger became flustered. They didn’t know what to do. Their confusion wasn’t enlightened when Ragnarok informed them of his intentions. He gave them a shout in return, “Don’t worry, I am coming to help.”

They became more confused. Who is he going to come and help? They don’t know. But they can’t give ground in their current fight or any weakness will be taken advantage of. If they are to separate, it has to be mutual. They both have to pause at the exact same time and take a step back. But are they going to do that? No, because they don’t trust the other one to really pause and not take advantage of the other. So they continued to fight.

Ragnarok reached them. Mana has been infused into his teeth. He unleashed his divine ability immediately when he got close enough. A phantom of two black bony jaws complete with teeth flew out of his mouth. This phantom jaw is bigger than his head. It caused the two fighters to feel dread. They felt a trepidation of threat and danger when the jaw came close to them. It made running a very good idea.

They both decided at that point to pause and separate their fight. Unfortunately, the jaws were too fast and too close. The phantom jaws clamped shut on his target. It was too late for Xigger to dodge. There was an audible crack as the upper and lower jaw tore through flesh and crashed against each other. That crack was followed by a cry of pain. The black phantom jaws took a large bite out of Xigger’s side. So he cried out in pain.

The phantom jaws disappeared after finishing their malicious mission. The damage had been done. Xigger was given a deliberating injury in one move. Ragnarok is already bigger than him so the phantom jaws which are bigger than Ragnarok’s head took a very large bite of him. He is missing more than half of his body because of the damage. He looks like a half-eaten snack that has been nibbled on.

Sauron was shocked into stupor. His mouth hung open. There are two reasons why he is shocked so much. The amount of damage that Ragnarok did caused him to marvel. The sight of the phantom jaws also evoked some understanding. He has heard tales of the exploits of ancient Alphas of Alphas and those of Emperors. There is something peculiar about those tales.

Many of the stories are not accurate anymore due to the passage of time. But what the stories are always consistent about is the mention of the biting power of those legendary figures. It is said that their mouth could expand and chomp down on their enemies. Sometimes, they are even capable of swallowing an enemy whole with a single bite. Such a thing has not been seen before until now. 

Sauron looked at Ragnarok and said, “So that’s why your teeth and claws are black.”

It can be considered a coincidence that Ragnarok has black horns, teeth, and claws like the ancient Warrogs. But it can’t be a coincidence that he can also do what ancient Warrogs have only been reported to be capable of doing. Ragnarok must be like the ancient Warrogs. 

Ragnarok didn’t pause after that attack. He pounced on Xigger and sought to finish what he started. Xigger didn’t resist either. That bite injured both his mind and body. He could not gather any strength to plead, much less fight Ragnarok off. So Ragnarok took several more bites out of him with his teeth before he could regenerate. He ate him up faster than Xigger could regenerate. 

Sauron watched the fight without interfering. He doesn’t have the presence of mind to continue fighting. What he has experienced today has shocked him to his core. It was until Ragnarok finished that he found it in himself to talk.
