Beast Evolution

Ray struggled to stand up and when he finally did his chest was dripping blood from one attack from the bear.

'I thought I injured it, what kind of strength does this bear have'

That was when Ray remembered, infected beasts heal themselves when they are injured, so to defeat the bear, he has to kill it in one strike.

Ray didn't know what to do, he couldn't see in the fog and Silver who was his guide had been injured, he didn't know if Sliver was doing okay because he didn't finish healing him before he retrieved him into the system.

'Now I wish I had wind magic, I would have blown all the fog away'

Ray ran into the forest so he could heal up, his [lesser regeneration] spell was already in effect, the blood had stopped dripping and slowly his injuries were healing.

"One of the beast has been killed, and the other one is running away, the beast that attacked the bear isn't infected" Alfred told them.

"But how come the bear can see so clearly and coordinate its attack in this fog, and the fog keeps getting heavier" James sighed.

"I don't think it's normal for a bear to be able to do that, it's because it is infected" Authur said.

"What if the bear is the one controlling the fog, I mean when the bear came it brought the fog back, and now its..."

*Boom*

The tree the senior knights were on shook furiously and threatened to fall down.

"The bear is here, we're killing it now" Authur shouted and jumped down. Alfred and James also jumped down from the tree.

With a loud creaking sound, the tree broke and fell down, luckily the senior knights had already jumped down and the tree didn't fall in any of their direction.

'The senior knights..., the bear is going after them, but now that I'm out of the picture, this would buy me so time'

[Summon]

Ray summoned his pet wolf and healed it completely, his injuries had also healed themselves and a great deal of his mana had been exhausted.

Silver was now in full condition now that Ray had finished healing him, Ray opened his [Void] because they were some crystal left from the boars he killed at the survival camp.

He fed two to Silver and absorbed three before his stamina was filled up, with his full strength he was ready to go into action but the senior knights were still battling the bear.

"Argh" Authur shouted as the bear's attack pushed him backward a little.

"I'm going for the legs, you guys finish it off" James shouted.

James moved back a little to concentrate, the bear was receiving heavy hits from Alfred, In an instance James charged toward the bear and used his spear to slash two of the bear's legs repeatedly causing it to fall to the ground.

"Good job" Alfred shouted as he used both of his swords to cut the other two making the bear unable to move.

Before the bear could heal itself, Authur had filled his sword with enough Ki to cut through an iron gate.

He rushed toward the bear to end it in one strike but suddenly the fog turned into a powerful tornado around the bear stopping anything from coming close to it.

Alfred, James and Authur were pushed back by the powerful tornado till the bear was completely healed and got on its feet then the tornado died down.

Ray was shocked by what happened, even though he couldn't see what what happening, he felt the powerful wind pushing him away.

'How come a bear has magic, is that possible, maybe the golden haired man is near by, could that be the case' Ray wondered.

But he had no time to waste, he didn't want to jump in when the senior knights were fighting but now he had no choice, as the bear had displayed this kind of power.

The senior knights would also go all out and end up killing the bear and all he did would be a waste of time, he had a trump card that can prove useful in this situation and he was going to use it.

"What was that" James shouted.

The senior knights had regrouped and moved a little far from the bear, the bear just stood still and wasn't moving.

The senior knights could sense the beast because of its Ki, that was why they were able to sense the bears the first time, and that was why they were able to battle with the infected bear without necessarily seeing it with their eyes.

"What was that" James shouted.

"I don't know, how can a fog turn into a tornado and push everyone around backwards" Authur remarked.

"I know its not normal, the bear is controlling the fog" Alfred said.

"How can a bear control a fog, bears are just beast they do not possess magic, except someone is pulling the strings" Authur said.

"There is no one around except us" James said.

"Wait, the other beast is back" Alfred said.

"I thought one was killed and the other one ran away, how come both of them are back and are still attacking the bear"

"We have to find out what's going on" Alfred said and the three knights dashed forward towards the beasts.

Ray was mounted on Silver and running toward the bear.

"Spot on" Ray mumbled as he let go of one of his blood spear.

The blood spear traveled with pace and power towards the bear, but it wasn't even a challenge as the bear knocked it down with a swipe of its hand.

Ray heard the sound of his spear been knocked away and immediately the spear appeared back in his hands. He climbed down from Silver and retrieved his back into the system.

Ray took a deep breath and bent down like he wanted to start a race.

[Blood rage activate]

Immediately Ray felt strength rushing into his veins, his stats were increased, his sense was heightened and now he could clearly sense the bear and know exactly where it is.

'Just as I thought'

HP -10

Ray stood up and dashed toward the bear with speed, in an instant he was in front of the bear, the bear had changed completely.

Before it was a normal infected bear with black eyes and foam on its mouth, but now the bear had changed.

Black lines had formed all around the bear's body and strange black liquid were flowing in those black lines.

Ray didn't care about the changes as long as he could defeat the bear that was all that matters. He swung his spear straight to the neck of the bear so he could end it in one strike.

The bear was surprised as Ray suddenly appeared but the he still attempted to slash Ray with its claws.

The bear stopped Ray's attack with one of his claws and uses the other one to attack him.

To Ray the bear's attack was a little slow so he could dodge it without ease, before he could strike the bear Ray felt three creatures coming close to them with full speed.

HP -10

'The senior knights'

Ray quickly jumped backwards and created a little space between him and the bear.

Ray reacted quickly as he saw a spear aiming at his neck. Ray used his spear to block James attacked and Alfred and Authur both attacked the bear and stabbed their swords on its back.

Alfred and Authur infused more Ki and pierced their swords deep into the bear that it came out from the front.

"This beast..." james shouted as he looked at Ray.

Ray used his spear to push James backwards and rushed toward the bear because this was the last chance he was going to get.

The bear roared and shook Alfred and Authur making them let go of their swords.

Ray arrived in front of the bear as it was struggling to get the sword out of its body. The bear was spinning around furiously and stopped in front of Ray.

Before the bear could react Ray already stretch his hands and shot a [Fireball] straight to the face of the bear.

The bear roared loudly and Ray mustered his strength in one hand and slashed the head of the bear.

*Putchi*

The head of the bear divided from the rest of its body and it fell to the ground. Alfred and Authur rushed toward the beast but it was already dead.

"The beast is getting away" James shouted.

The three senior knights quickly pursue after Ray as he ran away, Ray ran with full speed, he didn't deactivate his [blood rage] so he could outrun the senior knights.

He ran towards where the first carriage went, he had a plan and all he need to do was to out run the senior knights.
