"All beast has something called unique ability, I want to believe all creature has including humans when a beast accepts you as its tamer you obtain its will, oftentimes it can be obtained the other way by forceful dominating the beast or killing it and absorbing the core, but that is called beast stigma and is a curse, don’t try it."
Nozick continued, "Beast will is the materialization of the unique skill of your beast into your human body, it changes your physical appearance and gives you more power, take for example Grunder is a defence based snowbaron lion. Hence..."
𝑘𝑟𝑟𝑟𝑡𝑡
Nozick’s body crystallized up to his neck, the orc chief was dashing forth again but was punched again by Nozick’s crystallized body it flew back and crashed, this time the orc chief spat out green blood.
’It definitely took more damage’ Rein was amazed..
"Defense turned to attack... you can do it too... I’m sure yours will be amazing"
"haha... you are overestimating me too much" Rein scratched his head as he found himself replying to Nozick with formality.
"I know it... now do it"
Rein stood up and closed his eyes, he had no idea but Nozick continued to guard him.
"Search deep within, you have obtained its beast will so it’s in you, it could be in any form, a hunch, a faint light, an uncomfortable feeling, just get to it, confront..."
Nozick’s eyes widened as he saw dark smoke beginning to swirl around Rein and black markings began to appear, a black moon mark on his forehead, then black lines from the forehead to his jaws, then prolonged to his neck down to his chest the markings also appeared on his hands, definitely they must’ve appeared all over his body but since he was wearing clothes. Nozick admired him as his air began to float in the air, the black marking covered his forehead and made it all black and the sign of the moon turned white.
’is this it....even though it’s filled with total darkness, it’s so warm, are this Belet’s feelings... thank you...for this power Belet’ Beast will manifestation was more, there was always a conveying of feelings during this manifestation most times the past, the convictions and desires, the regrets, but this feeling fuel the strength to push further, to plunge forward, to want to go harder, Rein felt how much Belet has admired him and appreciated it. Now he was gonna take that feeling as a strength to plunge forward too.
He slowly opened his eyes which was all black like Belet’s, there was a mighty rush of black aura as he opened his eyes he started to float a little bit above the ground as his clothes began to get tattered due to the pressure of the dark aura.

Rein ignored the message that the system was conveying to him as he was more interested in this moment, the surge of power he was feeling, he felt very strong, it was different from when the white dragon awoke, then he felt like he was possessed, even though right now he wasn’t as powerful as when he was possessed by white dragon, he liked the feeling of being stronger, especially when it felt like his own. Rein grinned at the enemy in front of him.
Unconscious of the extent of his increased speed Rein dashed at the orc chief, the impact of his movement scattered the air beneath where he was floating before and cracked the ice floor his leg wasn’t even touching, but Rein crashed into the wall just beside the Orc chief, no one knew what happened. It was a horrifying movement, one minute Nozick had to protect himself from the blast of air, and in less than a second, he heard Rein’s crashing sound. Nozick was fired up, he looked happy like he was enjoying it, in his head, he was already fighting Rein.
Rein got up sloppily but was still floating, ’ahh what was that, I couldn’t even take time to think, the moment I left there, I was here... I didn’t even see where I was going’ Rein’s body and mind was overwhelmed by the power of Belet’s beast will.
The orc chief hoping to get him when he was distracted jumped at him with his double axe, Rein lately saw it coming as he was about to move, he couldn’t control his legs as they were shaking.

Two things were happening simultaneously,

As expected Rein could not maintain the form for a long time, it has barely been three minutes.
The whole scene was covered with a smokescreen from the impact of the orc chief’s attack so Nozick could not exactly see. Rein felt itchy on his shoulders. The axe was unable to pierce his screen, his skin had formed a black crystallization just like Nozick.

As the smokescreen cleared Nozick began to slowly get a glimpse of what was happening.
The orc chief’s wide smile disappeared the moment he saw his aura axe not even graze Rein’s crystal skin, his face was now filled with fear and despair. Rein crystallized his arm and fingers forming a sharp claw and easily stabbed the orc chief who had lost his will to fight.
The orc chief still had plenty of health left, it could continue to fight. But instead, it fell to its knees as it has lost the power to continue because of the trauma it received. Unique skill was the peak of every skill, it was a very great concept, to see it comprehended so easily would put even a human in trauma.

Rein staggered towards the orc chief and placed his hand on its head, "Instant kill"
The Orc king fell to the ground, as his soul was sucked out. As Rein released the beast will form he fell to his knees and began to groan in pains from all over his body, he started to feel a surge of energy, rush into him, which began to make him very uncomfortable, he had no idea how to respond to the pain he was feeling as almost all his bones were worn out and the sudden feeling of irritation, a little while he burst into tears and began to roll on the floor holding his belly hard.
Reinard was yet going through another change.

Rein had learnt to pay less attention to the gods when they are blabbing, he was relieved of pain slowly, his eyes sparkled when he saw the interesting part of the system’s message.

Rein was surprised to see the numerous hands clapping together for him, Nozick jumped around as though he was the one that defeated the orc chief, he joyfully anticipated the way he would fight Rein. Sigrid and the new folks ran to help Rein as he tried to get up, he didn’t have any serious injuries but he had scratches here and there, Rein staggered as they tried to help him get up, he fell back to the ground, he had a very surprised look on his face, everyone ran towards them.
Rein thought it was just fatigue, so he thought he could still manage, but the backlash of using such a powerful form was no joke, Belet could not be compared with any other beast. A primordial demonic beast that was thought to be extinct, of course using its powers should be next to impossible but Rein was still able to use it, was it his willpower? or his strong bond with Belet?, hut this was as far as he could go, great powers often comes with tremendous sacrifice.
Rein stared to the air,
"I can’t feel my legs...."
********
Neza stared in disgrace and shame as he watched all the orcs and Fangdorrs being brought down and the fierce battle between the Fangdorr leader and four people, he tightened his fist and looked around but couldn’t even find any of the leaders, he couldn’t find Nozick, Rein, Natasha, Goldevia... he couldn’t find any of them.
Jon saw him standing on the edge of the cliff, he grinned. ’ I bet he is devastated after seeing that we didn’t even need his help... he tends to always feel important, I never intended for you to join th
e fight from the beginning anyways. I knew you would act like that hence, I needed to show you we can do this without you. Not everyone in the society needs you dare prince, stop acting all high and mighty...tssh, I wish I could say it to his face. Jon looked up, it was already morning. What is taking Rein and the rest too long they should have returned by now.’
Jon continued to fight. Dor’thuk was a tough opponent, even though he was bleeding he was still standing. The hardest for him to deal with was Russ, the firepower was too much to handle and he had been shot in his right hands and legs even though both gained for his heart.
Russ complimented him but let him know he was never going to win because his armies were already defeated he alone cannot fight everyone here.
Dor’thuk was stubborn unless he was going to be killed he was not ready to give in.
The whole area crashed but soon the smokescreen cleared and revealed Neza who had jumped from the cliff he was standing, everyone was amazed because it was a far and high cliff, to be able to jump from that far and still land on his two feet without causing too much damage.
Neza’s imperial cloak with back furs at the linings made him look stunning, the way his red air fluttered softly in response to the morning breeze, he was a scarlet beauty.
Dor’thuk began to pee his pant as Neza released all his killing intent into the air, he fell to the ground and passed out, it was only him, many couldn’t bear the pressure, many ordinary soldiers passed out, even though some held their ground they were not in good shape, they found it hard to breathe, even Jon was on one knee fighting hard to resist the pressure.
He was more devastated than anyone, he gritted his teeth in anger. ’This bastard has even grown more powerful than before’
