Venerate was a term from a very old language, coming from the Ancients. It depicted outlandish power that allowed one to travel around the universe undisturbed by cosmic-level threats. Those ranged from galactic-sized storms, fleeting asteroids, stars so hot, that they would burn anything in their proximity, and many more. The universe was a dangerous place, and for one to travel further, or far enough to reach some sense of solemnity, it was an arduous journey.

Crowhell? Never heard of it. Mura complained in his heart and reconsidered what sort of bat this could even be. It was invisible to the naked eye, and even with the sense of Mana Detection, he didn''t manage to catch a thing.
<div>
<div>
What about Soul Read? He thought when he figured that regular sight, or even mana was useless. His Soul Read should be better. Feeling the statues put some stress on his soul, but with his Robust Spirit, it was possible to feel a large portion of them. The Soul Read went against quite high-level creatures, and if Lorry knew of it, he wouldn''t laugh but be respectful instead.

someone, he should Soul Read if he was close. The emotional state was often all to that alone, while not many things besides the general feeling of the soul went further. Soul Read will need further evolution to get stronger effects, and that was far away.

Is it the physicality? He through. it screeched like some sort of demon when it attacked and slammed into me like a fool. It''s invisible, so that poses two possibilities for a strategy, or answer. Its skin is prone to the mutation that is causing all matter to bounce off of it. Thus, making it invisible. Second, is a bloodline ability of some sort, as Lorry said. It can be about Space, Light, or some sort of camouflage fusion, or is it specific to its species? Skin condition? Not sure. Maybe there are some other ways of power in this world that can lead to this sort of ability. Evolutions can be that. Murai quickly deducted.

It feels strong since it works against the soul powers and mana. Two weird and powerful ways of power, so call me insane, but ain''t this bat a bit crazy? I am sure this beast has plenty of mana in its body, so its invisibility evolved to the point of veiling its aura. Just now, I suppose it hit me with a claw in the hope of severing my belly and neck. It failed, but I felt it like a brick. No. A slam? Not sure how quick, or heavy it was, but it failed. That is what matters, so its strength and sharpness aren''t that high. Its offensive power is lacking, that is. It has wings of quite some speed, and it''s definitely faster than stronger. That is why it went against the ceiling. It used momentum, so it has some intelligence and means of strategy. Nah. Those are basic instincts of a beast that is invisible and can fly. What an opponent! How about its size? It pushed me for about 11 and a quarter meters and it was sharp and heavy. It is the size of... twice my body? No. Perhaps about half bigger? Well, size isn''t everything. For such an opponent to go against me, I feel sorry for it.

very rule and ability has some shortcomings to them. This bat should remain invisible all the time, while its physicality is quick and quiet. Its power... is heavy too. I get it.

Well, I don''t care about hiding or not. I would rather fight, but I don''t know how big it is, nor how effective are its weapon, but it sure is careful like an assassin. As it slid through the ground and hit me, it felt big and quickly went away after it realized it didn''t kill me. Wait.. felt? Righ... It may not be that clever after all, and its abilities have limits. For example, the range. Since the bat is invisible, it only attacks with its body, so that is one way to counter it. It is counterproductive for this sort of invisibility, so let''s see its next move.

Hmmm. This is indeed too bad. I am too open. Fuck it. Murai thought and began to run towards other corridors. It was time to change the surroundings, rather than fight it out or wait like a fool.

may work better. One was a wide open space akin to an arena, where the Bat''s range should be higher, so its effects would take longer to reach him. Another was a narrow towering staircase that had no statues or sculptures to obscure his sense. It was also smaller, which should allow him to work better.

If I was an invisible fucker, attacking is the primary way to finish any job. Sure-kill would be the best at the enemy''s weak points and that is secondary, or priority. I don''t know the enemy, so does the enemy know me too? I have no idea. That leads to nowhere, so let''s take a proper conflict going, and kill it when it attacks me first.
