Chapter 94 - Harvest

After finishing eating the falcon, he still felt the remnants of the earlier lightning attack but despite the pain he felt he could tell it was tempering his body and it also stabilized something deep inside he didn't know was broken.

Grey sat there in an almost euphoric state as his body and soul were healing.

On accident the remaining electricity was launched out of his chest which woke grey from his daze until he heard a massive explosion in the distance causing him to look in that direction.

'Hmmm? that's near where scarlet and tony are?'

grey used the energy he gained from killing the falcon and created another clone for it to see what was going on.

Grey was studying his new understanding of his aura and Lily was doing research with hex on summoning improvements while the unconscious clone grey left behind laid gently in her lap unconscious.

In a faraway solar system, a mountain sized red dragon flew into the atmosphere like a meteor with no self-regard or regard to the planet he slammed into destroying anything nearby.

"GET OUT HERE YOU DAMM SCALED SLUG! I know you have something to do with that planet and the odd bastard child." Furor let out a deep primal shout while eyeing the now destroyed burnt Forrest.

Soon enough another massive creature emerged from the nearby ocean revealing a serpent that made mountains look like toys.

"You're lucky my children haven't ever evolved into land creatures yet or I'd destroy half of your bloodline!" Her voice was elegant but fierce as a cold air stared becoming denser around her freezing the nearby water.

seeing her becoming serious the air around him started heating up and distorting as if the two would clash any second.

they stared each other down for a few minutes which had permanent changes on the environment when Argoyo retracted the cold around her "Fine, but know I didn't do nothing one of your dead children fell into apo's solar system so he used that to create his elemental hydra the girl your ~bastard~ nearly killed is a distant relative of them and was given some of their flesh that became her injured lungs.''

Furor Stared her down then explain why a strand of fate is connecting him to one touched by you'' ne barked out still pissed but visibly more relaxed than before

Argoyo gave a cold smile to Furor ''that's because I saw the future his master is to create and it will end in us having a few siblings and more soldiers in about a few trillion years.''

''With more of us to protect this place we will also have a lot more free time and worry less about invaders.''

furor stared at her you're saying all our future depends on the planet apo made and Advert is trying to destroy?''

Argoyo looked pleased that he was now paying attention "Not exactly all the chaos and twists of fate in that system will affect others over time giving us nine new equals some of which will be our children.''

"Look all I'm asking is you keep involvement with that system to a minimal while promising not to destroy it like you usually would.''

Furor thought about it long and hard for a good while before answering "Hmmm a system of space where two of us have died becoming a chaos jar that creates multiple anomalies in turn giving us more power and more allies... I will refrain from destroying that system, but I will still involve myself as I see fit.''

Argoyo just nodded as she knew this was the best, she was going to get as he only cared about power, his children and entertainment. 

so, an entire system out of their control almost like a poison jar of anomies things outside both their controls just seemed so interesting even to her.

she glanced back at the system that was going to be a lot of trouble in the future which in turn will create a few that changes the fate of others making the future uncertain but it all lead to the birth of something she desperately needed.

back in the spirit realm a lone pumpkin was sitting in the ashes of what was once a forest but now nothing but ashes and the pumpkin stood alone.

greys clone soon arrived and saw just a lone pumpkin and what appeared a small crack in space and other side was filled with green and bones.

he felt the same sensation he always felt near the portal's lily used to summon him only this time it seemed more violent but soon his attention was grabbed by what was in the portal.

grey didn't know why but despite the beautiful sight Infront of him every instinct inside of him screamed RUN and DEATH!

the crack slowly started closing as the pumpkin grew a thin humanoid body out of vines with patches of wood laid out like armor.

the pumpkin creature slowly turned to grey reveling whet seemed to be pumpkin with a carved face and green flames from within making the creature look terrifying.

and while greys sound rune usually automatically translated whatever was told to him all his sound rune was giving him now were vague feelings.

'it's not saying anything, but I still feel like i know what it wants... it wants to find something? No, someone that's been stealing light and darkness from them?'

grey couldn't make sense of what he was feeling when the creature lunged at him at incredible speeds leaving behind a trail of green fire in its wake.

grey could feel its heat coming closer and closer to him as it was catching up. 

grey know deep down he couldn't win or defeat it so all he could think about was leading it away from his new home.

on pure instinct he ran to his old home the eleventh burrow but upon arriving he stopped as the sight brought back many memories but before he could relive those memories a green leg kicked him in the ribs launching him into the distance.

the creature approached slowly while grey was rolling around in pain while trying to put out the fire.

it soon created flaming pumpkins in its hands and throw them as if they were gernades.

everything in greys body was telling him to dodge so using all his strength he jumped backwards and one of the pumpkins exploded upon landing while the other started following after him as if it was alive.

grey although terrified and dodging for his life was amazed at the almost alive construct chasing him.

he tried doing the same with his sound rune but to no avail as it wouldn't stay solid for more than a second but when he tried it with his poison gas rune it felt so much easier.

that's when an old memory repapered "Wait a Minuet didn't I already make solid gas creature before why am i so amazed?

before grey could think about it more, he was surrounded on all side's by flying flame pumpkins closing in fast.

grey at that moment could only wish he had an army like the wasps he attacked earlier.

grey quickly released an massive brown smoke screen the really stunk but the pumpkin creature was unaffected as it kept walking and throwing flaming pumpkin missiles.

the pumpkin creature stopped as strangely his flaming pumpkins were exploding midair.

upon closer inspection it saw small green wasps ramming into his fireballs setting them off.

while the creature was distracted grey appeared from behind it after jumping down silently from above.

greys right paw was humming as there were visible dense vibrations around it while his left was covered in a black smoke.

his right paw struck first seemingly deleting the left arm and a good chunk of its torso while the left quickly spread and decayed the right side of the pumpkins body.

before he could celebrate the left arm, he thought he cut off regrew instantly and punched him into a nearby wall.

grey pulled himself to his feet and watched in shock as its body was now fully healed and the flamed purged his poison.

"That's enough I'm glad to see your progress lil thief but this harvest is way out of your league for now, thankfully you brought it here instead of somewhere populated or else it would grow too powerful.''

soon the grew heavier as tornado formed around it as massive pillars of light struck the creature repeatedly. 

grey recognized this voice anywhere as he turned around, he saw a massive white owl with bright green eyes "Doni the demigod of pranks?"

"It's Doni the demigod of creation and illusion the prince of pranks, why are you only formal when you want something?''

"Never mind that you called that creature a harvest?"

Doni sighed at the obvious subject change and impatience. "Yeah, they are creatures form an outside dimension that feed on souls, the more the consume the stronger they become until they are unstoppable but luckily only one comes a year.''

"it's one of a demigod's task to kill on sight these guys since they seem very interested in the abyssal claws soul, we try our best to keep the two separated otherwise the consequence would be dire according to the goddess of fate.''
