I am an Eldritch Entity

Chapter 124 Chapter 124: Change of plans

Eryndor clung to the beast as it ran.

Should I get off?

He thought, but quickly denied it.

No. I can always check the situation using my extended vision, I better keep damaging it.

Eryndor used Telekinesis to pick up his travel bag which he had kept far from the battlefield. He couldn't leave it there as there were high chances it would get stolen.

He wouldn't have minded if it didn't have many valuables, but it did.

Focusing his attention back on the beast, he activated his Internal Fist.

As the humongous creature ran, it suddenly felt a sharp pain in its torso.

Eryndor had used Internal Fist on its plain bare flesh when it didn't have the time to pay attention to him.

As the beast ran, Eryndor kept punching it, but the beast didn't stop.

What is so important that it would not care about its life but keep running? Are there really reinforcements there?

Is it enough that it believes it would be safe as long as it reaches there?

Eryndor didn't pay much attention, confident in his extended vision. He continued battering the beast with Internal Fist, which was currently the highest means of damage he had in his base form.

As the beast turned bloody, something finally appeared in his vision.

Turned out he was right.

The beast was indeed heading towards reinforcements. He could see approximately five more beasts of the same kind lurking near a cave which was a bit small for their size.

Do they keep their stuff there? Will I be able to find something good in there?

He quickly pushed that thought to the back of his head and turned his head upwards to gaze at the beast's head.

It had a bit of an elongated head, Eryndor didn't know if it could extend so he always kept a reasonable distance. He never went anywhere near the neck, but stayed on its chest area to keep bombarding it with Internal Fists.

A thought once again crept in his mind as he turned his attention away from its head.

Eryndor might not have noticed it, but the position of his team suddenly shot up in first place, with his kill granting him a total of three hundred points.

He once again used Lightning Infusion. Even if stun didn't work on these beasts, he would need every bit of speed and damage when fighting these beasts.

Light blue aura once again covered him, including the mace in his hand. White sparks flew up every now and then, which were pretty much harmless to Eryndor.

Using Shadowstep, he initiated the fight by closing distance, while two of the five had begun moving in his direction.

The ground trembled.

The beasts' elongated arms twitched, claws flexing in anticipation.

Their many-colored eyes blinked in erratic rhythm, scanning him from all angles.

Eryndor exhaled. Five at once? A cruel challenge. But he definitely felt like giving it a try.

One of the beasts curled its arm back and swung, the force splitting the air.

Instead of dodging outright, Eryndor lunged forward, closing the distance before it could complete its motion. He channeled Internal Fist, striking its plated leg.

It hurt his hand to hit plain hard rock, but judging from how the creature wailed, it might've been hurt more.

Suddenly, as he was repositioning, a thick bolt of lightning hit the ground before him.

Fuck! Change of plans!

One of these beasts had an ability!

Seeing the beasts had cut off his escape route, he ran into the small cave. It was too small for them to enter, and judging from its structure, it likely had another opening.

Dodging the bolts of lightning, he ran deep into the cave before finally slowing down.

Suddenly, from the corner of his eyes, he caught something strange. There was burnt yellow paper beneath a rock.

With furrowed brows, he overturned the rock, and took a look at the words written on it.

Majority of them were burnt or smudged, but when his eyes glanced over the readable ones, his heart leaped up to his throat with intense shock.

[.... Eldritch Eryndor....]
