171 The Burning Hatred Of The Last Skin Changer
—–
Skin-Changers, a race of people resembling humans, but that had larger framers, more muscular bodies, and were suited to survive in the harshness of nature. Their skin was often charcoal black, very distinct even from other humans, whose darker skin tones only went from dark brown at most.
Some said that Skin-Changers’ skin color originated from their Dark Elven Ancestry, and that their powers originate from a clade of Dark Elves that were capable of using Dark Magic to shapeshift into monsters and beasts, but that ended disappearing.
Others said that they they’re the children of some sort of Dark God and a Beast Goddess, whose children were the Skin-Changers, inheriting the dark skin of the Dark God and the power over converting into beasts of the Beast Goddess…
But all of these were but myths that people spread around, none knew the true origins of this mysterious race of people thar resembled humans but had nothing in common with them other than basic appearances. Some even called them a tribe of Amazon, but they were never truly related, although there are written stories about the clash between these two tribes in the past.
The power of a Skin Changer was incredible, if an adult developed well enough to the level of strength that it could become not only wild and small beasts, but also monsters, it would be the time when they could grow into truly powerful beings, rulers of the jungle.
Ninhursag had developed into adulthood after becoming the last of her kin and had become someone truly admirably powerful. Of course, she had get to reach the pinnacle, and also lacked the mana pool sufficient to remain in her powerful forms for too long, despite this, she was doing everything she could so she could bring down these monsters from her jungle, her territory, as these monsters were doing nothing but trying to invade her precious home.
Her enormous three-headed chimera form was one of her strongest forms, but it came with an insane amount of mana requirements, her large mana pool were running low by just using this form, she calculated that at most, she can take this form for ten minutes before her mana is fully exhausted.
This form allowed her to do many things, and brought many natural abilities that this deadly Chimera once had, which she had to fight with everything she had to defeat back then…
…..
While the Lion Head had a deadly Fire Breath, the Goat Head, seemingly inconspicuous, had the power of Dark Magic! A magic circle in the shape of a star emerged in the forehead of the goat head, as dark magic was conjured.
Darkness gathered around Ninhursag as it shaped itself as enormous spears of pure blackness, flying across the air and reaching the Goblin Champions, the ones putting the most fight out of the other mobs, who were being grilled by her Lion Head’s Fire Breath!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The four Goblin Champions defended themselves unleashing magic barriers of their own elements. Goblin Champions were incredibly proficient at magic and so they were good at physical combat as well, they were good at both spectrum, and lacked weaknesses as well as they were more intelligent than their smaller kin, more agile, had greater natural regeneration, and an even more cunning and vicious personality than them!
“GROOOARR!”
The third head, the head of an eagle, suddenly opened its beak as it gathered storming green winds from within, unleashing a powerful storm with a mere breath out of its beak!
FLAAAAAASSSHHHH!
The storm of winds reached the Goblin Champions, as they were blown away all at the same time, the dark spears followed them from behind like tracking missiles, clashing against them in midair, and the flames quickly began to burn over them. freewёbnoνel.com
Two of the Goblin Champions ended calcinated after these attacks, falling over the floor completely dead against Ninhursag’s incredible power, while the other two Goblin Champions were left barely living, their bodies were covered in burn wounds, and their mana was exhausted.
The other goblins tried to retreat at long last, they couldn’t win against such a monster with such incredible magic power, but Ninhursag wasn’t going to let them run away, by merely stepping towards them, her mere paws crushed them and splattered them over the ground, leaving the entire forest floor tainted with blood.
Ninhursag had bad memories with Green Skins, she hated them more than any other monster for a big reason, she detested them because they had provoked the lost of her loved ones…
“Die! Die! Die!”
She roared angrily as she unleashed her wrathful fury over the goblins, all while she noticed that the children had already gone away now.
the surrounding trees were all on fire while she was crushing every single corpse of the goblins with her paws, and then extended her jaws over them and devouring them all.
When Allan and Shade reached the scene, they had prepared to fight this deadly Chimera, but quickly realized, by the nature of her soul, that it was actually Ninhursag…
“Ninhursag?!” asked Allan in surprise, as the Skin Changer continued to devour and destroy…
“GROOOARRR!”
She continued destroying anything in her path, all the nature she protected and loved so much was being destroyed and burned, at some point, her bloodlust was so strong that she ended being taken over by the nature and instincts of the monster she had transformed into…
Shade looked at the woman while squinting his eyes. He knew Ninhursag quite well with Nepheline, they had meet her several times, and had engaged in long conversations, sometimes she was even invited to eat with them.
He knew something about her… she was a very lonely woman.
And this wasn’t because of just her choices, but her past and the pain of a life without her beloved family, after having lost it all, made her someone that had a hard time socializing…
He knew that deep down, she had a burning hatred against her own self as well, perhaps she purposedly let the furious wild behavior of her transformation take over her because it was what she wanted at the end, to become a wild beast, and to stop thinking about the pain of her past.
