Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

Chapter 2587: Vs Bewulf

Sam and the beasts rose to the sky.

Bewulf couldn’t hold back anymore and was about to make a move. But before he knew it...

*SWOOSH*

He found himself surrounded by shadow energy. The whole area, under him and a hundred mile radius around him, turned into a shadow portal.

Even before he could conjure his energy, he already saw a humanoid shadow appeared from the shadow patch.

"When...?" Bewulf opened his eyes in horror.

Sam looked at him coldly.

"Do you know what breeds in the incompetent idiots like you, when they get a bit of strength? Conceit.

You are too arrogant for your own good and you stopped looking for small details. I know exactly how guys like you think and you think I wouldn’t prepare for that?

That’s what’s gonna kill you today."

The humanoid shadow of Bewulf emerged out of the shadow patch and attacked Bewulf. The bitter battle started in just a few seconds.

At that moment, Sam sent the bird puppets out, surrounding the two powerhouses fighting. He also used the excessive energy from the shadow world to create a shield around him and the beasts.

The bird puppets really didn’t stand a chance as they flew towards Bewulf. Just the shockwaves from the fight broke them down to dust. Sam however, didn’t mind the loss and just kept on sending more and more puppets.

They are of the highest and strongest quality that he could create right now.

At one point, both Bewulf and the shadow noticed something. The puppets while weak, could be dangerous as well. So, Bewulf had to focus on them to make sure none of them survived coming close to him.

At the same time, the shadow noticed that the presence of the puppets is making its opponent wary.

So, while Bewulf created bigger shockwaves to destroy the puppets, the shadow did the opposite. Taking this cue, Sam sent even more bird puppets. Hundreds of them at the same time, flew around the two.

When Bewulf is growing increasingly wary of it, Sam finally made his next move.

*SWOOSH*

A huge bone structure came out of his storage. It is fifteen feet long, shaped like a canon. Everything about is like the regular barrel of a cast iron cannon. There are thousands of inscriptions inscribed all over it.

The moment he took it out, the surrounding shadow energy that was excessively flowing outside, got injected into the cannon.

There are already more than a dozen divine inheritances already embedded on it. But still the cannon greedily absorbed all the power and started concentrating it on the barrel.

The spirits enchanted on the cannon are working on overdrive to stabilize the energy.

Sam took out the thunder prison out. He modified its structure to mirror a huge glove and he placed his hand, wearing that glove on the back of the cannon.

The shadow energy injected into the cannon, was too much. Sam could feel the immense pressure of it. He shouldn’t be anywhere close to that level of energy.

All the divine inheritances are drained within the next minute and finally Bewulf’s attention was attracted by the cannon. But too bad for him... it’s a bit late.

Sam moved the cannon, aimed the barrel at Bewulf.

Bewulf sensed the threat and got ready to dodge, but the problem is... the shadow who fights on impeccable instincts in the most efficient way, didn’t let go of that chance and attacked Bewulf.

*BOOM*

The spear attack threateningly aimed at Bewulf’s neck, almost landed. Bewulf activated his defense and was sent flying.

At that moment, Sam along with the cannon disappeared from the spot and reappeared right behind Bewulf in his path of flight...

Sam used one of the bird puppets as anchors and replaced their spatial positions... then he fired.

*BOOM*

The recoil sent the cannon flying and Sam who is attached to it felt the full force of it. His hands were shattered, bloody mist escaped from the cracks, his libs broken, several of his internal organs crushed. Shadow energy invaded rapidly and his soul shook to the extreme.

There were several skull fractures and Sam is pretty sure that his heart stopped for a quick second there.

However, both the thunder prison and the cannon are perfectly safe.

Sam with his last shred of consciousness activated spatial transfer. It hurt like a bitch, he was back near his beasts, who took him away along with the cannon and the thunder prison.

While this was happening...

The energy blast from the cannon hit Bewulf squarely on the chest and the blowback basically destroyed more than a hundred bird puppets close by.

The attack was powerful, but it isn’t powerful enough to kill Bewulf in one shot.

It did injure him, but even that wasn’t considered a critical hit. It is half decent at best. But with the time and position Sam is at, that is all he could conjure.

But that was enough. Because the aim of Sam has never been immediate damage. It’s the shadow energy corrosion and he achieved that perfectly.

Bewulf felt his body being ravaged by the shadow energy and his speed slowed down a lot. That was all the shadow needed.

It mauled Bewulf at an incredible speed, the battle just like that, took a turn.

Sam didn’t even notice what he had done.

He just fell asleep, letting the forrest bear heal him.

His bones started mending slowly, while the battle went on.

When Bewulf weakened enough, one of the remaining bird puppets flew towards Bewulf. Sam woke up exactly at that moment, with barely any strength left. He is still injured. But now, he could heal himself with his medicinal wine.

He witnessed as the bird puppet flew and spread out to reveal the formation. It caught Bewulf off guard and started sucking the divine inheritance out of him, while the shadow stabbed him with the spear squarely on the chest.

Bewulf noticed that his situation is dire...

"You motherfucker. I will never let you go..." he spoke through gritted teeth. Golden ethereal energy spread out of his body.

The shadow was immediately destroyed, and so did the rest of the bird puppets and the formation surrounding them.

The spatial nodes holding the portal open were destroyed, the shadow portal disappeared and the whole area returned to normal.

*COUGH*

Bewulf is still alive, but his body is screwed. Celestial energy ravaged his internal systems and he started bleeding through his orifices. But even in that state, he desperately managed to take out a transference token and escape.

Sam clicked his tongue... he really wished he pre-charged the cannon. Maybe he could have taken another shot...

But this is good as well. After all, he did make a very special promise to Bewulf and it won’t be good for his rep if he didn’t make good on that promise.
