Beast Monster System

Chapter 47

'This boy… his barehanded fighting ability is amazing, no wonder he could defeat one Bigfoot with just one attack based on what I heard from his friends,' Nala thought. She was keeping her distance from Blake at the moment while stabilizing her breathing rhythm.

Even though she was in her Bigfoot form, Nala really had a hard time defeating Blake, and this was not as she imagined Blake's ability would be.

'We're totally equal here, even, to be honest, he's actually a bit stronger than me. He had gotten more chances to kill me. I nearly died at his hands many times. Even though all of his attacks failed to kill me, but it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he was slightly superior to me right now because if I think about it, in this fight;

Sixty percent of what he did was lashing out at me, sixty percent of what I did was multiple times nearly dying and overwhelmed to dodge his attacks.

Thirty percent of what I did was attack him, thirty percent of what he did was dodge my attacks.

And ten percent what I did was try to attack him, while ten percent what he did was thwart those attacks,' Nala continued as she stared at Blake who was also looking at her.

'Plus, I notice that the energy that I had wasted and used is far more than the energy that he had wasted and used. He certainly isn't as tired as I am right now,' she added.

A moment later, Nala glanced at two large holes in the ground that were located quite far apart, and the two were not far from her. 'Those two big and deep holes… he called it Single Punch, that's when his punch became even more terrifying and stronger. If I remember correctly, his friends said that he used this ability to kill two Bigfoots, which means I would also die instantly if he managed to hit me with that ability, and this was obvious judging by the size and depth of these two holes,' Nala commented, she really saw Blake as a threat after fighting him.

"So it's true, huh," Blake confirmed suddenly, Nala, who was previously making eye contact with him, was quite surprised.

"You don't have ability," he continued.

'Damn it! He realized it!' Nala thought, she felt even more threatened because of this.

"Don't worry, that doesn't mean I'm going to look down on you. I'm just wondering what differentiates Bigfoots who have abilities from those who don't. That's so weird, Aksel and we have beaten nearly a hundred Bigfoots so far, but why did three Bigfoots who have abilities suddenly appear at the last moment? Why don't you and the dead Bigfoots have the same thing? Is there some kind of caste difference between you that is determined by this?" Blake asked curiously. Unlike Nala who was standing a few meters in front of him, Blake wasn't in a fighting position. He just wanted to talk for a while.

"Things like that don't deserve to be known by people who will soon die. Keep your mouth shut. I know you're just trying to buy time, whatever the reason is," Nala replied.

"I have no reason to buy time. I have the upper hand right now and compared to you, I'm in much better shape, it would be foolish if I didn't finish you soon and instead wasted my time and opportunity, and with you saying 'whatever the reason is', I know that you know it well," Blake spoke coldly, he also gave Nala who was in her Bigfoot form an intimidating look.

Nala was then speechless, Blake's points were all correct, so she took her eyes off of him for a while.

"I just wanted to talk to you for a bit about this, but if you refuse, I'll have no choice but to finish our fight quickly, then force that little Bigfoot to say it all," Blake mentioned after the two of them had been silent for a while.

Nala quickly glanced back at Blake with an expression on her face and a look that explained how shocked she was to hear this.

"You have a special relationship with him, right? I'm guessing he's one of your family members. I bet you don't want to see him forced to speak violently, do you?" Blake sneered, a devilish grin then formed on his lips, making Nala's fearful impression even more clearly felt by Nala.

"Don't you dare touch my brother!" Nala immediately shouted after that.

'Well, my guess turned out to be right,' Blake murmured.

"Ugh!! Screw you!" Nala yelled, she then went straight ahead, running towards Blake as fast as she could. She tried to stomp on him, but Blake was able to match the speed of the girl in her Bigfoot form.

'Of all the Bigfoots I've faced, she's definitely the strongest, but I'm quite curious as to how difficult it will be to fight a Bigfoot who has ability,' Blake thought as he dodged Nala's quick attack.

"You know we've come a long way from the point where you attacked me and our fight begins. We both don't know how our friends and other foes are doing right now, but I guarantee you that your brother won't survive the rage of my friends, unless you're willing to trade his life for all the information you know and have about all of you. You don't have much time to decide, only I can stop their rampage by telling them about this offer," Blake explained.

As with Garrett and Cole, they both had indeed been quite far from the starting point of the fight between the two. Blake and Nala were now in the forest and both couldn't see those around the starting point of their fight, where there was only dirt, dust, and small fires in that area, as the result of Garrett's fireball attack earlier.

"Hmph, do you think that my little brother is a weak Bigfoot? You don't even know if he has ability or not," Nala responded to Blake immediately after giving him a confident smile.

"If the sister doesn't have ability, so does with the younger brother. There's no doubt that there are differences between the two of you and the other three Bigfoots, whether it's regarding caste, group, or tribe, which makes the two of you as well as nearly a hundred dead Bigfoots not having abilities as those three Bigfoots, am I right?" Blake replied, he then gave Nala the same smile.

"How dumb! I feel sorry for you, you really want to feel right when you actually have doubts about it, that you make this disgusting smile. And since you keep trying to make me talk about it, I'm answering it," Nala taunted, she then returned to her human form, with the same smile.

"Uh?" Blake muttered in confusion as he watched Nala change her form. Blake's smile even disappeared, replaced by a frown that quickly appeared on his forehead.

"Abilities in Bigfoot have absolutely nothing to do with caste or group. Some Bigfoots indeed have abilities and some don't, but whether a Bigfoot has abilities or not, that's the provision of our creator and is not affected by anything, so within a family, it's not impossible to have Bigfoots who have abilities and Bigfoots who don't have abilities at the same time," Nala then explained it to Blake with a smile that slowly faded. She also leaned her arm against the tree on her left before she started to explain it.

"Is that true? Then what ability does your brother have?" Blake asked as he folded his arms across his chest with a smile slowly returning.

"Similar to that ugly b*tch, he can do Telekinesis. He can even control other Bigfoots at will, that's where you have to be very careful," Nala replied.

"Who are you calling a b*tch, b!tch?!" Jade suddenly called out to Nala and interrupted her conversation with Blake.

With her eyes suddenly widened in surprise, Nala then looked back and saw Jade a few meters away from her carrying Nash on her shoulders and holding her with only one hand, while she used her left hand to hold her waist, she did the pose again.

"You …!" Nala was out of words. She was really shocked to see her brother who was in his human form collapsed on the shoulder of the girl she hated so much.

"Your acting is terrible, Nala. I suggest you take acting lessons for a few months, but even if your acting is good, I'll still find out that you're just buying time to keep your Bigfoot form a little longer. Besides, how could you suddenly change your mind without considering it carefully," Blake spoke to Nala, then chuckled as an even clearer mockery for the girl.

"Tch!" Nala, who turned to Blake again because she was talking to him, also looked annoyed to hear this.

"Anyway, if only you had asked for mercy from me earlier instead of trying to fool me, I wouldn't mind at all," Blake added, he stopped his chuckle and smiled broadly afterward.

"And… may I add one more thing before I go? But I'll apologize first for bothering you," Jade said while holding back her laughter, so she smiled quite broadly at that.

"Yes, yes, please," Blake replied immediately after that.

"I feel sorry for you, b*tch, because unfortunately, your brother doesn't have any abilities as you imagined, I even beat him in less than twenty seconds, it's a shame, isn't it?" Jade then told Nala with a crooked smile. She and Blake really mocked the girl to their heart's content.

Jade then turned around casually and prepared to leave from there, Nala quickly chased after her, but Blake was able to catch up and prevent her from attacking Jade, Blake locked Nala's space and knocked her to the ground easily.

"Wait! Come back here, b*tch!" Nala shouted at Jade who continued to walk forward leisurely while carrying Nash.

"Hey!! You stinking ugly b!tch! Come here, you as*hole!" she cursed when she didn't get any response from Jade who continued to move forward. Nala then tried to free herself from Blake, but Blake's strength was much stronger than hers, making her unable to free herself from him.

Nonetheless, Jade surprisingly stopped walking and turned around again. That made Nala stop fighting Blake to free herself. She immediately looked back at Jade. She somehow fell silent when once again making eye contact with the girl who was still smiling.

"Mwah. Bye," Jade said, she blew a kiss to Nala before really leaving from there.

"You bastard! Hey!! Come back!!" Nala immediately screamed right after Jade was leaving. She was really angry because of that mockery.

"AAAARRRGGGHHH!!!" frustrated, Nala then decided to change her form. Yes, she was back in her Bigfoot form and forced Blake to let her go when her transformation took place.

Due to her boiling blood, Bigfoot Nala managed to grow her muscles and body bigger, and although it wasn't a significant change/growth, Blake could easily notice it and was naturally quite surprised by it.

'Is this some kind of her extra ability?' he immediately wondered while making tense eye contact with Bigfoot Nala.
