Chapter 63: Don't Charge In
The ant Anima began to laugh loudly as it heard what Mark said!
"I know what happened to you, KING. You lost your power after the fight against the Anima Lord. You became weak and you were scared! That is why you went into hiding! You are no longer the Human KING that we fear! I shall harvest you and use your power to feed my queen!
You shall serve as the life force that produces the next Anima Lord!"
The Anima Lord is what the Anima call the Armageddon class Anima. The anima all feared KING for a long time after the fight against the Armageddon. They witnessed his power and realized that he was too dangerous for any of them to stand a chance against him. If he could kill one of their Lords, then what chance would they have?
But they slowly lost that feeling of fear as they no longer saw KING fighting on the front lines.
They realized that KING would not show his face no matter how many humans they killed or ate, so the memory of what he was capable of collectively meandered back into something mythical for them. Why should they be afraid of a KING with no power?
Mark's glare never reduced in intensity.
"You don't know the meaning of the word fear."

Bzzttt!!!
Mark's constitution suddenly activated the lightning technique once he touched the vine and he heard a loud screech echo through the cave as all the vines in the room shook in pain. Mark was immediately able to figure out what the vines were once he heard it screech. There was still one low-level Calamity class that he was yet to defeat and he was sure that this vine was it! Is it some sort of worm?
That is disgusting.
Mark wondered how in the world he was going to kill this thing since it was underground. He would have to think of a way after getting rid of that Ant Anima.
Mark reached the point where he thought he would see the ant, but he was shocked when there was no one there! It ran away!
Shink!
It was only his quick instincts that allowed Mark to dodge quickly enough to avoid the sword that almost took his head off. Mark fell forward and immediately turned around to race straight for the Anima behind him! The Anima wasted no time as it also ran straight for Mark and they both clashed in the middle!
Boom!
Bam! Bam!
Slam!
Mark grabbed the Anima by the arm and threw it into the air and the Anima easily turned around and used the body of the large worm and shot off for Mark again. It tried to take Mark's head off with its knife arm, but Mark stepped close and prevented it from getting a clean cut!
He pulled his arm back and three devastating punches flew out and slammed into the Anima's midsection before he grabbed it by the leg before it could fly away and threw it into the ground!
Bam!
Ka-Boom!
Once the Anima hit the ground, a massive green vine flew out from under the ant and carried it into the sky! It slammed through the roof of the cave and exposed the cave to the moonlight shining through the island as the fight escalated into the open forest.
Down in the cave, Meta was on the move as he dodged around the vines that were also trying to get him. He was able to dodge most of them since they were slower than him, but he was not able to join the fight because of his injuries. He knew that if he joined the fight the way he is now, he was only going to slow Mark down. He needed to get some of his stamina back as quickly as possible.
Crack!
Crack!
Meta dodged around a vine that tried to bludgeon him and he turned around to look at what was making the new sound. He narrowed his eyes as he saw the cracks that appeared on the pod that was holding Arit and he could only sigh tiredly.
Crack!
"What the fuck is going on in this place?"
