He nodded in agreement and said to her, “Yes, I want to beat the eldest too.”
His anger bled out of him. It was replaced by frustration caused by Soverivk’s existence. The Crimson lightning clinging to his fur turned blue again. Then the lightning storm died down completely. He is still feeling some unease even though he doesn’t know why. He can’t remember what he experienced that made him so angry anymore. It is like a distant long, forgotten dream.
“What happened to me?” He asked her.
Litori rolled her eyes. “It doesn’t matter if you don’t remember.”
“Hmm.” He shrugged.
He can’t remember what happened apart from the activation of some latent ability of his bloodline. It is a dangerous but powerful ability that trades his life force for power. It would leave him crippled if he were a mana entity. The injuries caused by the ability can only be healed with lots of pure vitality. He can get pure vitality from Hadrick, but he doesn’t need it now. He has a soul body, so he can recover from any injury. Using the ability will only cause a loss in his cultivation. He can recover it with some resources.
This sort of thing happened to many battle sage monkeys. Most of them don’t remember exactly what their bloodline was trying to tell them. Some of them awakened something important. They awakened the memory of a skill or an ability. For some others, they remembered what they felt and saw vividly. The rush of memories from the past brought forth some significant events that can not be forgotten.
Litori remembered what happened and realized why her ancestor decided to specialize in attacking the mind and soul. It was to create a virulent mind disease that spreads very quickly within a race. It is meant to wipe out an entire race. Races that have the paragon divine ability are especially susceptible to this ability.
Salvini remembered her ancestor’s promises. She remembered the battle that decided the fate of the battle sage monkeys, who used to be called ocular monkeys.
Many Origin Cycles Ago At The Battle That Made History.
She is tired, so tired. She has tried and tried, but the end is yet to come. She has to continue giving because she has more to give. There will be no rest until the last of the Vipers have been put down. Even the unhatched eggs must be crushed wherever they have been hidden. She has no choice because she has seen what will happen if it is not done. They started this fight, and they must finish it. That’s what she is thinking as she stands in front of her army.
Even now, she can see it. She can see that tiredness in the ocular monkeys arrayed before her. They were all weary and tired, but they answered her call when she made it. They are not soldiers. They are but men and women fighting for a greater cause. They are fighting for his cause, and he might just lead them to their deaths. Today will determine if their cause is a fool’s dream or not. What is certain is that most of them will surely die today. That part is indisputable.
They used to attack the Vipers little by little. They ambushed small tribes in the night and made sure to eliminate every single one of them. Ocular monkeys have been hunted for ages, but it is their turn to fight back. Still, they kept their retaliation under wraps. They didn’t want the Vipers to know that they were being hunted. The silence helped them to reduce the resistance they faced.
Their decision to be silent about eradicating the vipers was a good one. They were able to do much during the silent war, and the casualties that they suffered, even with all the advantages stacked on their side, made it obvious how bad things would have gone if they were in an open war. The lack of communication between the Viper settlements helped the race genocide to remain a secret. Unfortunately, all good things must come to an end. The Vipers may be divided into tribes, but they became aware when enough tribes went missing. Now, the vipers are here for revenge. They are here for their pound of flesh and to beat back their unruly prey.
The ocular monkeys had banded together and overwhelmed the Vipers little by little. Each of their attacks turned out to be an ambush that ended in Pyrrhic victory but a victory nonetheless. They lost their advantage when the Vipers began to combine their tribes. It is very easy to bring an entire race together when decision-making is up to a few individuals. The agreement of the paragons of their race brought all the Vipers together as fast as possible.
“If I survive this, then I must create a governing body to unify the race.” She promised herself.
There is a lot she envies about the Vipers. They are too powerful, and their divine ability is too strong. But the most important advantage that the Vipers have is unity. She can’t copy the other advantages that the Vipers have. So she will copy their unity. She will create a council that will unify the race if she survives the upcoming ordeal.
Then she chuckled to herself. She found it funny that she is planning for a future when there might not be a tomorrow for her.
“It seems I am still well of mind enough to plan.”
That’s who she is. She is always planning. It is ingrained within her to expect the unexpected. She is planning for a future that might not be. It is both a result of her personality and divine ability. That’s why she won’t give up her divine ability when the time comes to choose a path. There’s nothing better than the ability to foresee all possible events. With it, she will be unstoppable. Powerful beings will act according to her whims. They will dance to her tune.
