Immortality System: The Last Human's Transmigration

With all the red energy left in my body, my arm had taken the ax and sliced it up, plunging it deep within the eye of the lizard and splattering its blood all over me.

The blood began to sizzle on my skin causing me to grimace in plain, yet the blood left no visible wound so I chose to grit my teeth and endure it.

'If I lose focuz for even a second, it would spell death for me... I need to survive.' I closed my eyes and opened them again, this time both my irises containing crimson red rings around the pupils as if wanting to highlight.

*Roaaaar* The ground shook in front of the brain-rattling roar, yet not only did I not cover my ears when I heard it coming, but I also stood there unflinching as one of my ears began to bleed, a trickle of blood leaving its canal and dropping to the floor.

As if that was some kind of signal, I stepped forward right before the blood would have touched the ground before squatting down and jumping up, ax in hand, and ready to murder everything before me if it meant that I could survive.

"You think after all I went through..." My expression turned into one that morphed into rage and contempt, something that seemed to have made the crimson red ring become brighter than before.

"I would submit to a bastard like you!?" I bellowed with a fury like never before.

With my anger fueling the power behind my attack, I swung down with the ax and aimed toward the head of the T-rex in hopes that I could slice it in half.

How wrong could one person have been?

*Cre-ak*

*Snap*

My eyes widened while my heart dropped.

I could only watch the stone of the ax shatter while the wooden part snapped into two pieces.

'Crap'

I tried my hardest to get away but I was mid-air. Yet even though I was mid-air, I still technically had the advantage since the T-rex seemed to be in an enormous amount of pain after having an ax plunged into its eyes.

When I had gotten close oversized lizard, it had automatically opened its other eye and peered at me with hostile intentions flickering wildly within its eyes.

'That look...'

It felt so familiar.

'I don't like it!' With newfound vigor, I shifted my body and plunged into a descent, my foot aiming for one of its eyes while the other foot got ready to spring the rest of my body away if need be.

"Eye for an eye asshole!" I roared one more time, my speed of descent increasing by an entire margin due to my posture reducing my surface area and therefore also reducing drag.

*ROOOOOOOOOAAAAAAR*

Another roar had left the maw of the creature, yet unlike the other times where it had simply roared to scare something off or to establish dominance, I could feel something different about this one.

Instantly, as if I had been hit by a truck, I felt an enormous force hit me directly before shooting me into the air.

'Sound wave? No... That simply isn't possible.' I was still in a state of shock, however, I was still capable of slightly changing the way I would land.

Right now I was several meters off the ground and the only way I could land without breaking something would be if I try using my legs to break the fall.

Using the momentum I had been given from the shockwave-like eruption of sound, I flipped in the air and tried to land on one of the tree branches that were closest to where I was, yet before I could even do that I felt something else hit me, or to be precise, I felt something hit the back of my head.

*Thud*

Without having realized it, I had reached one of the tree branches towards the top and had slammed my head into it, yet since most of my momentum had already dissipated, the hit was not enough to knock me out.

In a last-ditch effort to survive, I quickly threw out my hand and pushed away from the branch I hit and in the process barely dodged the incoming dread.

*ROAR*

The waves left the maw of the T-rex once again but I had found myself barely dodging them this time due to my quick thinking.

Not pondering over what happened just yet, I planted the soles of my feet on the trunk of a tree and slid down it until I found a branch suitable for me to grab on to.

It only took a few seconds but those seconds to me felt like an eternity.

I had to analyze and question which branch would hold me up the best, and even then, it was only after I had made a gamble did I jump to one of the tree branches hoping that it would not be slippy or weak.

Thankfully, it wasn't weak but that was beside the point.

Once again, I could feel the dread getting closer by the second and so I had to move.

I quickly shifted my body and kicked the tree branch below me before jumping onto one of the tips and springing myself up to one of the higher branches on another tree right before the wave could hit me.

I could hear the wave absolutely eradicate the tree I stood on previously and immediately causing my heart rate to quicken in the face of complete and utter despair.

'I can survive.' I tried to convince myself

'I survived against all odds... Against that crazy-looking woman. Against a treant. Against an oversized kimono dragon and even an invisible creature that probably specialized in assassinations. What's the difference now? It's just another oversized lizard... I am fine... I will be fine... Nothing can kill me as long as I don't give up'

*ROAR*
