Chapter 89
Maybe .
This was his best moment .
Jung Ilhu was certain of it . He was no longer afraid - after drinking all the blood outside, Vehume's blessing transformed his body and mind to something much more superb .
"Maybe . "
Jung Ilhu spoke to Dohyuk .
"I'm not the strongest yet in this world . "
'But I will be . '
What he received was potential, the potential to grow stronger as long as he hunted prey and drank more blood . To him, Dohyuk was no more a symbol of fear . He was just another prey, a source of blood to empower him even further .
"After consuming you, I will take one step further . "
"I'm not afraid of you anymore . "
"What in the world…" Dohyuk, who was frowning, didn't understand Ilhu . "Are you talking about?"
He wasn't taunting him . Every word Jung Ilhu had said until now, was all just weird growls .
"You…" Dohyuk froze . He finally realized what he was facing . The monster in front of him was Jung Ilhu . He had changed to something entirely different . He was blood-red, but not because he was drenched in blood . His new skin was color was blood-red . The muscle and bones under his skin also changed from their original shape to fit him better as a hunter . His eyes could now detect heat and his tall nose had dropped flat to smell blood better .
"It's another… sick toy . "
Blass spoke from behind .
"Don't be surprised . That is his taste . "
Vehume, nicknamed as Vampire when he was a human . Sucking blood was his way to become stronger . To suit his needs, he altered his body parts . In the end, he was no longer looked like a human and even his devout followers feared him because of how he looked .
When he finally became a god, he bestowed his blessing to all of 'his people' . His followers then altered their bodies to have the same physical traits that resembled Vehume's . It was the birth of a new race .

"Changing your way of thinking doesn't make you a coward," Blass advised . "I don't know how strong he was before he transformed, but he's different now after changing his body . So…"
"I know what you're thinking, "Dohyuk said without turning back . "You don't need to warn me of such danger . I know you can just drag me down anytime you want . "
"You're interested, aren't you?"
He was interested in seeing how Dohyuk would fight, especially if he really learned anything in that short amount of time .
However, Blass did not answer .
Dohyuk changed his breathing . He reminded himself of his countless fights and the knowledge that his skill was telling him .
The beast in front of him was trying to use a skill as well .
'It's the same as before . '

Even if the body had changed, the skills that were embedded into its body was still the same . Although Dohyuk did not know of this, the skills Ilhu was using were the ones he had learned even in his previous life . His knowledge and experience of using the specific skills were greater than Dohyuk's .
'Different hardware . '
It was obvious that the power behind the skill was also more powerful . Dohyuk and Ilhu both thought the same thing and Ilhu attacked first while screeching, similar to the screech that a bat would use for echolocation .
The effect was immediate . Dohyuk felt a sharp pain in both of his eardrums and he froze for a slight second, but he still had enough room to attack . Ilhu closed in and thrust his fist at Dohyuk . Dohyku barely dodged it, but it was different from how he used to move . It was comical even as he seemed to even have extra time to dodge it .
"Kahee!"
Ilhu let out a laugh and continued attacking . It was the same . Dohyuk barely managed to dodge them all, but his movements were now very different combined with his skills . After he dodged the fourth attack, the fifth one hit his stomach and he was thrown high into the air .
It was a sad sight to see from a 3rd person perspective . Dohyuk was flying back, his arms and legs flailing like a drowning man . Dohyuk slammed against the wall that was across the large hall and dropped to the ground .
Jung Ilhu didn't chase after him right away . It was a perfect hit . If he had made this attack in the previous fight, Dohyuk would have been killed already .

But why . . .
"This…"
Dohyuk was standing up . He moaned in pain, and one could see his muscles shaking from various parts of his body . Yet he was okay . Nothing on his body was broken or severely wounded .
"…I see . " Dohyuk mumbled and Jung Ilhu jumped at him again . It was a clean move, but it was the same with all other men Dohyuk had faced . There were some who forgot how to fight after they were revived, but most of them knew how to execute the basic fighting skills with their bodies .
Dohyuk also learned this through his kick skill, but since he lacked understanding, he had a hard time against men with similar stats .
"How could I have known?"
Dohyuk mumbled to himself again and raised his leg . Ilhu scoffed and opened his mouth . Was Dohyuk trying to fight him? In his current state? The reason why he stood up as if nothing happened just now was probably due to his Nature . Ilhu would surely get him this time . He was going to sink his teeth into his flesh and suck all his blood at once .
Dohyuk's kick flew in, but Ilhu ignored it and reached out with both his arms . He knew the speed of the kick, as well as its direction and range . However, it was quicker this time .
No . . .
