My Slayer System: Rise to Supremacy-Chapter 474: Pure torture!
{Ding! System has detected a power surge from the beast which can help to upgrade system.}
"Huh? Power surge? What do…" Jake trailed off.
{System has deemed the power surge safe enough for host to absorb.}
"Absorb? What is this talking about?" Jake muttered in anger.
{Ding! System upgrade available now.}
{Beginning energy absorption…}
{Calculated time for absorption to get completed… (one hour)}
"What?!" Jake mumbled as he suddenly tried to shoot up when he fell on his knees with a heavy thud.
"Jake? What is wrong?" Grey asked as he raised an eyebrow up.
"I…I… ARGHHHHHH!" Jake screamed as a sharp shooting pain ran through his body feeling like hundreds of needles were prickling inside his skin.
"Jake?!" Grey shouted as he bolted forward and quickly crouched down towards Jake who was now on his knees screaming, hands still on the beast's hide.
Grey was about to touch him when…
"Do…don…. Don't touch me!" Jake shouted, veins showing on his neck as his eyes began glowing with energy.
"What is going on with you? Wh… why are you screaming?" Grey asked feeling all panicked and confused about what to do.
Jake couldn't reply as his gaze averted to a small screen in his line of vision.
{Absorption rate: 2% absorbed.}
'Shit!' Jake screamed inwardly as his muscles all tensed up. His veins showing out of his neck as he tried to focus and hold in the pain.
"Pl…please try to…to protect my…my body." Jake pleaded towards Grey who stared at him in confusion.
"Protect your body? Dude, there aren't even much
beasts around here." Grey said as he looked around.
"Al…also….also." Jake managed to say as he finally managed to sit down cross legged, his hands still on the beast hide. "Help…help open a portal to my world down so… so once I'm done, I can leave immediately."
"That will consume a lot of energy and who knows what the hell you are doing and how long it will take." Grey retorted as he backed away seeing how serious Jake was.
"Pl…please." Jake pleaded as blood trickled down his mouth. "ARGHHHHHH!"
He screamed in pain.
Grey just sighed and surrounded his body with wind magic before moving away from Jake and stood about two metres in front of him.
"Fine." Grey said as he created a sharp lightning blade from nowhere and used it to cut his hand drawing blood.
And then he sat down on the bare ground to begin drawing different signs and symbols on the ground. Each of them so intricate that it required immense focus on his part.
He was so focused that he snapped at Jake anytime he howled in pain. He kept drawing for about five minutes before he was finally done, a smile crept on his face as he wiped his sweat dripping face clean.
"That was harder than I thought." He grinned.
"ARGHHHHHH!" Jake's ear piercing shout came again and Grey's eyes twitched as he spun around, flames licking his hands.
"Scream one more time again, and I will burn you to a crisp." Grey threatened, his gaze sharp and resolute.
But it all fell on deaf ears as Jake had long since shut his eyes to focus on the intense pain swirling around him to even take notice of the barking Grey.
"Now…" Grey said as he turned towards the signs and circles on the ground.
His hand lit up bright white which he proceeded to place at the tip of the circle and the next second, it shot forward towards the other symbols in the circle.
It looked like as if someone had poured kerosene in a circle on a grass while using it to draw several signs and then lit it up with fire causing the grass to go up in flames.
That was what it looked like but in this case, immediately the white light connected with all the symbols, it lit up brightly to the extent Grey's face was illuminated as he stared the circle.
*Boom!*
A white swirling portal tore above the circle Grey had drawn on the ground. It was pulsing with magical energy in front of Grey.
'I didn't know where he was supposed to go, but while drawing and connecting with the universes, I felt something. This portal isn't complete yet.' Grey sighed inwardly as he strode towards Jake who had his face scrunched up in pain.
Grey managed to get behind him, his hand moving like a blur and then managed to pull a strand of hair from Jake's head in one smooth motion
before walking towards the swirling portal.
Stopping in front of it, he stretched his palm that held Jake's hair…
*Swoosh!*
It felt like the portal suddenly flared to life as it sucked the hair from Grey's hands like a wormhole of some kind before spinning rapidly for a few seconds.
'Using his hair, will let the portal show the place he desires to be most. It will show the place and probably the people he wants to see.
After a few minutes will it fully activate and allow him pass through. I intentionally set it this way so that it won't consume much energy and it will still be active pending the time he would be done with whatever he is doing.' Grey thought as he saw the spinning portal slowly come to a halt when…
"ARGHHHHHH!" Jake's voice tore through Grey's thoughts which caused his eyes to twitch in anger.
"Relax." Noir's voice interrupted Grey from doing something bad. "You should understand, you also went through pains like this when you were trying to advance to the next star. It looks similar but it feels different."
"Yeah whatever." Grey waved his hands in the air and then, the portal suddenly changed from a swirling white light to something instead.
It felt like one was staring at a clear water when ripples ran along the surface to finally display something or somewhere.
"What the hell?!" Grey gasped as his eyes widened. "Are those the werewolves things he said his universe are battling against?"
