Back in Airom Logat...
With the mount, Kyros was able to switch from defense to offense. The blood golem tiger that Kyros rode was slightly faster than the Dark Fanged Tigers. The other tiger was slow that it could barely catch up to the racing speed of the Dark Fanged Tigers aiming to maw Kyros.
But thanks to Kyros''s fast whirling attacks, the tigers were on the losing end of the exchange as they would receive more and more wounds.
The tigers tried to pounce at Kyros at the same time, but Kyros leaped up and abandoned his tiger mount.
The blood tiger didn''t evade but rush towards one of the tigers to attack it.
CRASH!
The Dark Fanged Tigers bit and began to maul the Blood Golem Tiger as Kyros attacked from the top.
"That''s cruel. You''re like the mustached man abandoning his mount to jump himself to safety."
"These are Blood golems! The reform anyway!" Kyrosined as he set his ax smashing on the shoulders of two tigers.
The roar of the tigers echoed out, and Kyros pulled the chain with great force to throw himself closer and delivered a smashing stomp on another Tiger.
The force energy on his foot attacked the confused tiger burying the tiger''s face down to the ground.
Before one of the tigers could attack Kyros, the other Blood Golem Tiger pounced on this tiger and gave a hard bite on the neck.
CRUNCH!
The sound echoed out, and the Dark Fanged Tiger was whimpering in pain.
Kyros had used the impact of his stomp to eject him back up with a little help of Force energy. Kyros had managed to store the ax back, and his chains were free.
With a quick hook, another attack was sent. One of the chains didn''t have the ax but had the Bloodied Sword.
The sword stabbed on the opened wound, and with the increase in sharpness and the familiarity of the blood of the Dark Fanged Tiger, the sword was able to stab deeper as the tiger fled.
At that point, the wounded tigers realized they were no match and began to flee.
"They''re escaping?" Kyros frowned.
Kyros mounted the wounded Blood Tiger Golem and began to chase the tigers. Kyros had caused the blood to focus on the legs so to restore its speed.
"They''re splitting up!" Kyros cursed.
He began to pull the chains to limit the speed of the tigers.
"I need more speed!" Kyros ordered his tigers to focus on the one that was the slowest. It was the tiger that Kyros stabbed with the sword. The tiger dropped from its sprint as it lost its strength to move.
Kyros passed by and sent the tiger to the Temple as it just had died while retrieving his sword.
The other tiger had managed to break free and dislodge the ax stabbing his shoulder, and began to escape.
"Let''s see if I can still use the new blood to strengthen this tiger." Kyros was curious and allowed the other Blood Tiger Golem to run nearby.
The blood that he acquired was being harnessed into the two tigers.
Kyros focused and began to manipte the blood that was fueling these tigers forcibly.
The blood of thest tiger Kyros in wasn''t absorbed into the sword, but it was used to add over the two tigers.
Both Blood Golem Tigers were getting bigger and bigger. Their paws and fangs grewrger, and even their arms became twice asrge.
The speed of the two tigers increased as well.
With the new speed, Kyros chased after the remaining tiger that was trying
The first one began to attack to the side, while Kyros kept chasing those that were in his view.
With the added speed, the remaining wounded tigers were soon killed. The balefire burns that the tigers received from their battle were already hindering their speed. And with Kyros using the absorbed blood to strengthen his tigers, he was soon able to kill all but one.
The surviving tiger was already quite a distance from Kyros, and even though Kyros had killed all and maximized the form of the tiger he was riding, he still couldn''t catch up.
Kyrosbined the tiger he was riding and the other Blood tiger to make an even stronger tiger that can close the distance.
"All those Tiger... and it only gave me an increase of two more Blood Tiger Golems to summon. How sad." Kyros sighed.
"Your Blood de must have leveled up more. But since you are using abined form, it seems that you have to level up the Cloak and the Grudge Sword. You still have the same amount of Shadow Ghouls, but you can summon more Golems."
"Why do you keep narrating the obvious?"
"It''s called smooth transitioning. It seems forced if the author exins all of it, so he makes me exin some bits to try to make things casual."
"Whatever. It looks like we''re here."
"What makes you say that?"
"Well... one this is the ce that is the inverse location of the Temple in Airom Vagat. Two, the scent of blood seems to end here, and three, that tiger fled here."
"Ah... So you don''t think that that twenty-foot golem guarding the cave entrance has nothing to do with this?"
"No. The Blood Cmity could have nted it here to buy her more time." Kyros smiled as hemanded hisrge tiger to charge and face the hulking y Golem that stood and blocked the path.
The twenty-foot golem had the features of a man. But its fangs made it clear that this was a vampire. It moved slowly and suddenly charged towards Kyros.
Kyros stood on the tiger and readied his chains.
"This looks so cool! Spawn Spider-Kratos Attack on y Titan. With Tigers." Cminus eximed with excitement.
Kyros''s felt a migraineing at the audacious statements of Cminus.
The y Golem charged and delivered a powerful punch towards Kyros.
BOOM!
Kyros leaped to the side as therge tiger evaded to the other and then used his chains to swing out of the way and draw the attention of the golem.
The Tiger suddenly exploded with great speed and bolted inside as the golem was trying to attack Kyros.
Kyros knew that killing him would be a priority and that this golem would focus on attacking Kyros. The logical choice was to make the tiger aid Kyros, but Kyros sent the tiger inside.
"I''m not that dumb. This golem is something that is meant to dy me. You must be too weak that you even need the blood of your little pet to escape." Kyrosughed.
As expected, therge golem moved and chased after the tiger and somehow began to shrink to fit in the cave.
But Kyros took that time to attack.
Out of the inventory, Kyros brought out therge ax. This was the same ax that the powerful orc who had the blood of the Blood Cmity wielded.
The immense power of Force Energy enveloped the heavy ax.
"[Force sh]!" Kyros shouted and harnessed every bit of energy to attack the y Golem.
The y Golem was big, but it was still a y Golem. Whatever powers it had were not stable. It was like a ss cannon. And this ss canon had turned its back on Kyros to chase after the Tiger.
SLASH
Therge sh struck and destroyed the core of the golem, causing it to crumble.
As Kyros had interacted with Golems, he knew where the core that gave life to these golems was.
Kyros brought therge ax in and didn''t even spare a nce at the crumbling y golem as he moved inside.
The tiger was there waiting, and Kyros jumped over it, and the two sprinted inside.
The entrance to the cave led to a strange chamber as stones with intricate designs were made.
The designs looked familiar as it became more and more clear that the ce was arge seal.
"Well, it''s not like the Temple. But this ce is indeed a seal. It sealed a Fallen. It seems that this Blood Cmity is not an ordinary vampire or subus. It''s a weakened Fallen that all we saw was its weakest version." Cminus observed.
Several pirs were ced on several intervals, and it was clear that something struck these pirs and damaged them.
The tiger could finally be seen from afar.
Kyros took out his bow and took aim.
FWIP! FWIP! FWIP!
The arrows struck the legs and paws of the tiger, causing it to lose its bnce, and it stumbled.
CRASH!
The tiger crashed on the ground and even began to roll, and Kyros revealed his sword to attack thest tiger.
But then suddenly...
ZAP! ZAP! ZAP!
A red bolt of lightning began to shoot around the pirs and created a chain lighting that kept moving on and on to the first pir that Kyros passed.
A strange field was happening.
"This is... a seal!" Cminus shouted.
"Time and Space are affected. I can''t teleport out." Kyros cursed. He hesitated, but he then turned towards the location where he could sense movement.
A beautiful woman appeared andughed at Kyros. She had dark wings, bright red lips, a shocking figure, and long red hair was floating over the body of the Dark Fanged Tiger, and it was as if the blood of the tiger leaped out and was drained by this woman.
"Hello, little Nephilim! Care to keep mepany."
The moment Kyros heard this voice, he shivered. The allure and power of her voice caused Kyros to tremble. Even with his high soul resistance, those words somehow pierced through Kyros and caused him to yearn for the embrace of the woman.
"The Blood Cmity, I assume?" Kyros frowned.
"How do you like my trap? I prepared everything to make you think I was dying. I love the game Nephilim. I like how I can twist and manipte the hearts of men to get what I want. How does it feel to think that you were winning, but in truth, you were falling for my unravble n?" Sheughed.
Kyros stood his ground and closed his eyes as he took out his weapons.
Cminus, who was deathly silent from the sprung trap''s shock and fear, saw what Kyros did. The trap itself was shocking, and Cminus was panicking. Who would have thought that the defeated Destiny was able to pull this off? Cminus even began to consider that maybe feigning defeat the first time was part of Destiny''s n.
The power of the Subus was starting to show its true strength.
Even Cminus could feel his Wisps Soul being drawn to the Subus. A feat that was shocking considering that soul attacks of the orcs never reached him.
But now, the sensations meant that Kyros was not so strong to resist the soul attacks.
Cminus turned to Kyros and was about to call him out when he noticed Kyros''s expression.
"He''s doing it! The most powerful ability of all!"
