Chapter 127 Beast Battle • 3
Chapter 127 Beast Battle • 3
Ahhhhh!
A bright silver blast of light filled the battle square, exploding from Sylver's chest to every corner, blinding even Melina but especially her Beast Companion.
The light disoriented the Nightpanther, causing the Umbra Strike it had summoned to strike the mere ground, leaving behind a crater.
Even if the projectile had hit Sylver, the damage would have been much less, because the bright light had reduced so much of the shadow gathered to create the Ability in the first place.
When the lights dissipated, Sylver was nowhere to be seen. He did not keep everyone searching for long, because — following his master's orders — he reappeared moments later, leaping toward the Nightpanther with his fangs bared.
"Luminous Fang!" Aeric commanded.
Sylver's jaws glowed with radiant energy as he drew closer.
"Dark Shield!" Melina cried.
However, Power Claws and Luminous Fang had one difference. Luminous Fang could tear into even the strongest metal!
With his amber eyes flashing fiercely, Sylver bit into the Dark Shield and his teeth stabbed right through and caught Drex on her shoulder.
The Nightpanther howled in pain, the divine energy in Sylver's fangs searing her flesh and reducing her defenses. The crowd roared, enthralled by the spectacle.
Melina clenched her fists. "Drex! No! No!"
Aryanne's eyes were squeezed so tightly in anger it seemed they were going to pop out. She stood up from her seat and walked out of the stands.
"Shadow Leap! Drex!" Melina yelled helplessly.
Her Beast Companion vanished from sight and reappeared in the far end!"
"Oh, ladies and gentlemen! Awakened Players and Dormant ones alike! What a battle we have for ourselves here! And can we talk about the Son of Starlight! A tactical genius isn't he? The power of a Silverwolf is impressive, sure, but he has masterfully averted and outclassed Melina of Moonlight! What a spectacle! On his debut game as well!"
Melina grew angrier hearing that, and even though Drex hadn't fully healed from the Luminous Fang, she ordered it into action once more!
"Drex, Attack Mode: Phantom Dive!"
The Nightpanther leaped into the air, its form dissolving into shadow before speeding from the air and striking down at Sylver in a quick shadow burning dive.
Everyone watched in anticipation.

Suddenly, Sylver's ears twitched, and everyone seeing this burst into cheers. They began to urge the beast to get up!
"Sylver! Sylver!! Sylver!!!"
'Come on boy!'
Aryanne's eyes widened with disbelief and anger. As they all watched, Sylver moved his back limbs and began to pull himself up.
"Sylver! Sylver!! Sylver!!!"
8!
Aryanne furrowed her brows, rage filling her up. She turned to Cecilia. "What are you doing! Squeeze harder!" she ordered.
"I'm trying!" Cecilia moaned.
9!
"Sylver! Sylver!! Sylver!!!"
Sylver stood on his front paws, and then with some effort, lifted his back limbs and placed the paws on the floor. Then he let out a proud howl; "Awuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!"
"Come on, boy!" Aeric exclaimed as a rush of joy and energy pumped through his body. "That's my Beast Companion! That's my Silverwolf!"
10!
"Yeahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!" The crowd went wide with cheers and applause. Everyone was on their feet! Everyone was cheering for Aeric and Sylver, even the ones that were against him at the start.
Aryanne could not believe her eyes and it all made her even more mad. Melina stood in disbelief, completely intimidated by Sylver's perseverance. Even her Beast Companion was scared.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, Sylver beat the count and is still alive in this competition!"
"The Beast Battle continues!"
More cheers! More chants!
