'Lord Remus, I will be leaving for the battle,' I said as I flew into the sky before shooting toward the Grimm.

The Grimm is a little far, and it would take me some time, but I don't mind. It is a good thing; the shockwaves and residual energy of battle wouldn't be able to reach the humans, and now that there is Nero, I have to be worried about the safety of the humans.

Lord Remus, which I had thought stay and protect humans, did not seem to be doing that.

He was following behind me; I did not say anything as I didn't think that would be any useful. He is sent here to guard me, and he will do that no matter what I say to him.

Soon, I reached near my enemy, and it flew out of the camp; I had not hidden my aura as it would not be any use, its not like I could assassinate it. I would have if I had the strength, but I did not; even with all my stealth abilities, it will sense me the moment I entered a hundred-meter radius of it or even sooner.

"Hellow, new friend," I said to Blue Horned Goatman, which had blue veiny armor made of ice covering every part of its body.

"Zaar," It said simply, and an ax appeared in its hand. "You know, it is good to introduce yourself when you are unknown," I said with a smile before there was no reaction from it; its expressions remained unchanged.

"Well, it seemed like I will have to note you down as ugly ice goat," I said and even made a gesture of writing.

"Blade Storm of Icre!" the Blue Horned Goatman said, and the terrifying aura erupted out of its body and formed a clear bloodline phantom of ice blue goatman, which disappeared inside it a moment later, and at the same time, thousands of huge ice blades materialized from behind it.

"You know, I was just joking; you do not need to get so serious for such simple words," I said and pushed my hands forward defensively.

"Die!" It said tens of thousands of powerful ice blades came at me with incredible speed. This attack is not only fast but also powerful. As powerful as the last attack of Hyenaman before, I was forced to summon my shields.

First Burst + Second Burst + Third Burst

'Twelve Arms!' I activated all three of my boosts and harnessed all their strength, and also, the twelve arms came out of me, each one holding a different weapon.

'Since you want to fight, I will give you the fight!' I said and pushed my lance forward toward the ice blade that came at me.

These ice blades are as thick as mine and twice in length, and each possesses an aura powerful enough to crush the army. I have to be careful of them. If a couple of them hit me, then it would be a game over for me.

BANG!

My lance struck against the first blade, and it exploded into thousands of pieces and came at me. I did not make any movement to stop; instead, I moved my lance and other weapons toward the thousands of lances which are coming from behind.

BANG BANG BANG

First, the lance was just the beginning; a fraction of seconds later, my weapons clashed against the tens of ice blades, and all of them had exploded into tiny sharp pieces and came at me.

Hun!

Finally, the first layer of the broken pieces touched me, and to my great surprise, instead of striking me hard, these pieces turned into puff as they touched me, and their extremly cold bloodline energy drilled inside my armor en masse.

The sudden intake of this powerful ice elemental bloodline energy was so powerful that I felt freezing. Every part of me started to become cold, but the very next moment, a couple of formations activated inside me and began to release the heat.

I have learned a lot from yesterday's battle; at the stage where the Grimm is, its energy did not need to touch me to affect me; yesterday, the Hyenamans aura was enough to make my blood heat, and when it entered inside me, it had made it steaming hot.

My clone had worked hard and created the formation to ward off such effects.

BANG BANG BANG

My weapons moved at an extremly fast speed, not letting in even a single ice blade close to me, but the fracture pieces of it were coming inside me, and this energy was huge, and with every ice blade destroyed, it increased rapidly.

Thankfully, if I am good at anything, it would be dealing with energy. Even if it is coming at a huge amount, I am dealing with it. My armor kept absorbing and getting stronger, and those it could not absorb were getting quickly refined and sent to my runes, which are more than happy to consume it all.

BANG!

Finally, the last ice blade came, and it was destroyed by my rapier, and a moment later, my armor absorbed it.

"Whew, that was one scary attack," I said as I placed my hand on my rapidly beating heart. "You survived." It stated without change in its frozen expressions.

"I had to use all my strength to do that," I replied to its statement.

"You are not going to survive the next one," It said, and its eyes radiated in blinding blue light; and once again, the bloodline phantom appeared behind before disappearing inside it, and the aura that came out of its body was so powerful that I felt as if my soul had frozen away.

"Nine Chains Goat Heads!" It said in a hollowed voice, and the very next moment, nine huge goat heads materialize in front of it.

These nine goats' heads are huge; each one is about five meters tall and frozen blue and has chains of ice attached to their heads whose ends have it held in their hand.

"Freeze to death, human!" It said, and to shock, I found the goats moved at such speed that they surrounded me in an instant from all directions, just like the snakes of Hyenaman did, but goat heads are far more powerful than those snakes.

MAAAA MAAAA MAAAA

The nine goat heads bleated loudly in ghostly voice and spewed out the torrent of thick icy mist at me. The mist is powerful, far more powerful than I had thought it would be, so much that, even Lord Remus caught in the mist, he would be frozen to death, much less me.

This is why he is calling me, wanting to come to help me, but I stopped him, saying everything was under my control, and it is, despite this being likely, its most powerful attack.

The frozen mist came at me, and before it could stick me, it stopped by my shields which had become visible.

My shields lighted up as powerful mist hit them; for a few seconds. My shields begin to shake, but I am not worried; the attack is powerful but not enough to break through my shields.
