"Fans?"
Even someone as calm as Bologue was shocked when he heard the enemy utter such an absurd statement.
Red Mercury flowed into the blade in his hand. Bologue drew the sword and slashed vertically, unleashing a fire that tore through the darkness.
This wasn't Bologue's first battle with such Shadow Beasts. During an earlier ambush against Man-eaters, he had encountered similar Secret Energy.
Back then, the opponent's Secret Energy was affected by light; once strong light dispelled the darkness, he lost the foundation to maintain the Shadow Beast.
Relying on past experience, the fire blazed suddenly, glaring and intense.
The fleeting light couldn't affect the beast; its fur remained so dark, seemingly swallowing all light, unable to be illuminated.
"Yes! Fans!"
A man's face appeared on the beast's head, a grotesque blend with a bizarre creature, excitedly shouting at Bologue.
"I've been so looking forward to meeting you!"
