Immortal II: God of Beast

Immortal 2 #8

Zero's PoV

When I finished saying goodbye to Azura, Gabriel and I left to go to Fixuiroius World, and when we arrived, we found ourselves amid the werewolves.

I can't wait to see my family again! I immediately told Gabriel to get out of here as soon as possible and after I met my family. When we arrived at my house, I noticed them having a conversation.

I also saw my nephews playing and my grown-up cousins, who suddenly turned to me and were terrified at first.

"Zero?" My Mom called me, and she approached me slowly; I smiled, and she hugged me.

"I thought you'd forgotten about us!" My Mom said to me, hugging me tightly, and I hugged back.

"I have come back to get you. Right now, my enemy is King Sander," I told my Mom, surprising her.

"How did you two become rivals?" My Mom asked me, looking at Gabriel.

"And why are you in the company of a beast?" My Mom asked she could tell Gabriel was a beast just by looking at him.

"Mom, how did you find out?" I asked Mom, and she pointed to her nose?

"I've lived for a long time, and I already know immortals, beasts, demons, vampires, witches, and wizards," My Mom told me.

"I have a long story to tell about King Sander. I must get you all out of this world as soon as possible," I informed my Mom.

"Can you tell us where you're taking us?" My Mom asked me.

"My girlfriend is in the demon world, and I will introduce you all to her. She is a good person. She is not a traitor; Azura is not a bad person," I told Mom as she patted my shoulder.

"I'll tell your siblings, cousins, and nephew first," Mom said, and I nodded.

When I saw my Mom talk to my father and brothers, they both looked at me and nodded. We need to hurry because I believe Sander is on his way.

"Gabriel, do you feel like they're on their way? Can you sense them?" I asked of Gabriel.

"I will yell when he comes," Gabriel said, and I agreed.

"Zero, we are ready. We're leaving; they took their belongings first," My Mom said to me.

"We don't have time, Mother; we'll just go back to those things—" When I heard King Sander laugh, I came to a halt.

"He's already arrived!" Gabriel yelled, and I grabbed my mother away from this place.

"Zero, what are you doing? You need to leave! Just let us go!" My Mom said to me, and I shook my head.

"I'm not going to abandon you, Mother! I have to save you!" I said this as I noticed King Sander flying.

King Sander built a fire in his hand and threw it at us, but my mother pushed me, and when I fell, I heard my mother's cry as she transformed into her werewolf.

"Mom!! No!" I shouted at her.

Gabriel came to a halt in front of me and pulled out the small sword. I looked at them when Azura told me there was a barrier, and King Sander killed them.

"You want me to kill all of them before you give up!" King Sander yelled and strangled my nephew, who was only a child.

My nephew transformed into his werewolf, and as he threw it somewhere, I noticed my father had been stabbed in the neck, and he was in his werewolf form.

King Sander also stabbed Mother, which enraged me even more. King Sander laughed, and I did nothing.

"Let's get out of here first so Sander can't catch up with us," Gabriel suggested.

I nodded, and Gabriel tapped me on the shoulder; we'd teleport somewhere with no one in that place.

"I have something to do," Gabriel said as he took something resembling a light from his hand and inserted it into my body.

"What's the point of that?" I asked Gabriel.

"It will take away your senses and aura, so Sander won't be able to find you right away," Gabriel explained, and I abruptly lowered my hand.

"Why did you do it right now? You should've done it sooner! I hope Sander misses us!" I sighed, and Gabriel was unable to respond.

"I thought Sander still cared about you, but there was more; I couldn't help but sympathize with you," Gabriel said, and I grabbed my head.

I thought we'd go back there an hour later, but when we returned, here was full of blood, and King Sander wasn't there. I assumed King Sander is looking for me.

But now that he can't find me because of what Gabriel did to me, I went to Mother, and Gabriel assisted me in putting them all together.

"Let's go back," I said, lifting Mom's lifeless body.

Gabriel created a portal, and I entered through it. I got down on my knees when I realized Azura was in front of me.

"What happened, Zero?" Azura asked me. She was shocked seeing me carrying my mother, but I remained silent.

"What happened, Gabriel? Tell me right now!" Azura asked Gabriel. After showing my family corpses.

I couldn't stop crying now, and this is all I can do now because I won't be able to do anything when it's their time.

"Zero! Tell me about what happened!" Azura asked me again and shook my body, but I still refused to respond while crying a lot.

"King Sander killed them, Zero's family forced us to flee because his parents didn't want him to disappear," Gabriel responded to Azura.

"He's a true demon. I'll make it even worse by murdering him!" I lay down my mother's corpse as Azura sighed.

"It's all my fault. I have to die as well," I said sadly. I was about to remove the cursed ring when Azura stopped me.

"Zero never do such a thing! I can avenge you! I'm going to kill Sander! Let us take revenge!" Azura informed me.

"Did you use the barrier?" I nodded when Azura asked.

"Sander couldn't follow because I put a barrier around all the werewolves in my family, so Gabriel created a portal so we could get out of there right away," I explained to Azura.

"We need to give them a proper burial. Zero let them go," Azura said to me, and I just nodded.

"I'll assist you," the man who was training Azura said.

We picked up my family's corpses, and Azura used her power to make to dig. When that was completed, the dead wolves were also appropriately placed.

Azura knelt and held my hand after building their roof and placing flowers on each side.

"Let's pray for them so their souls may journey safely to heaven," Azura said to me, and I knelt with her.

Azura stood up after that, and I remained seated and crying while praying to my deceased family.

"You will stay here?" Azura asked sadly to me.

"Yes, I'll leave soon after I say my prayers to my love ones first," I said, and Azura kissed my cheek.

Azura turned my face to her after kissing me, and when she was done, she hugged me. Azura was the only one in my family now, so I hugged her back.

After she walks away, I cried.

Azura's PoV

I even looked at Zero when I came out because I built a small house for his deceased family along the hill, and I saw how Zero cried and cried.

"Let's give him some time to mourn," Joz said, and I nodded.

"Let's keep training. We must press forward and continue to our lives," Joz said, and I picked up the hammer I had set down.

"You're right, Joz, but the Hammer didn't disappear, Joz, which means I'm connected to the hammer I made," I told Joz as he examined the hammer closely.

"You're correct, the hammer didn't vanish, but you can't use it in combat because you still have a sword destined to slay various creatures," Joz explained, and I nodded.

"Where can I just use it?" I asked Joz.

"Just by fighting an elf-like us, as I said, many different types of power can be learned, and the one you choose is the strongest and most powerful hammer you've ever made," Joz explained.

"Let's start again. Enough talking," Joz told me, so I nodded.

I moved a little further away from him and gripped the hammer tightly, hoping that he would play tricks on me and grab the hammer I was holding.

So I need to concentrate on his every move, and I need to feel his aura approaching me right away. I closed my eyes to see if I could predict him attacking me, and I couldn't believe it when I saw him attacking me on the side.

I surprised Joz by blocking the hammer on my side, the hammer came out of the water, and he immediately backed away from me. When I tried to combine it with electro, I smiled.

"So you boost your power?" Joz asked me.

"I just tried it, and it worked; is it more powerful?" I asked Joz, and he said he could handle the power out there.

"It appears that the hammer has detected an elf, just like me as I said, you can beat the evil elves using that hammer," Joz said to me, are there any evil elves?

"I had no idea there were evil elves, but will no one be angry with me if I kill them?" I asked of Joz.

"Nothing because Queen Mei sometimes orders them to be killed because the elves can become obsessed with lots of power," Joz explained to me.

"Sometimes they become stingy with everyone because they want to learn all the power of the elves, and so they threaten some trainers to get what they want," Joz explained, and I nodded.

"Do you think I'm not like that?" When I asked Joz, he laughed.

"You're not like that because you told me why you want to get stronger," Joz said as I saw Zero emerge from the small house I built for his deceased loved ones.

"That's the only reason I want strong power," I said to Joz.

"Do you want to continue training? Zero appears to have come out to the small house you built for his deceased loved ones. You should take the day off and be with him." I shook my head as Joz said this to me.

"I don't want to miss a day of training, but can I take a break earlier? I want to speak with Zero," I informed Joz.

"OK, I'm going back to the elf palace," Joz said.

"Be careful, Joz," I said to Joz, and he walked away.

Joz was very nice to me, so I went into the palace and looked for Zero when I saw Jeff approaching.

"Are you finished training, my lady?" Jeff asked me.

"Yes, I finished early; where is Zero?" I answered Jeff.

"He's in your room," Jeff said, and I went inside our room.

Zero was sleeping on the floor; perhaps he couldn't handle his sadness any longer and fell asleep. I understand he is still grieving his family's death.

I approached Zero and took a step back, looking at him as he slept. He didn't notice me sitting next to him, so that he may have fallen asleep right away.

I caressed Zero's cheek before kissing him on the forehead.

I didn't realize I had fallen asleep until I felt Zero's hand hugging me, and I was my back on him.

I look at his hand and hold it, and I'm so comfortable when I'm with him. I turn around to face him, and he was still sleeping.

"It's a good thing you're awake," Zero spoke. I was taken aback. Zero gradually opened his eyes.

"Why are you pretending to sleep here and waiting for me when I wake up? I want to be by your side because I know you require my help right now on what happens to you and your family," I told Zero, and he kissed my lips.

"I'm fine; I need to accept what happens to them because when I don't, I will always think about them, but time heals, and don't worry about me. I will be fine in no time," Zero explained to me.

Even though his family had died, he continued to think of me, so I got up and fixed my hair. He hugged me once more, and he kissed my neck, which tickled me.

"What are you doing again, Zero?" I asked Zero.

"Nothing, I just want to hug you all the time," Zero said, and I smiled.

"Do you want to eat?" I asked Zero

"Yes, let's eat; I'm sure our food is ready," Zero said as we both stood up.

And now I realize he's naked; did he take them off last night before he looked like a wolf? That's why it's so hot; I'm just a little cold.

We left the room, and when I looked down at Zero's feet, I noticed he wasn't wearing shoes, so I came to a halt.

"How come you're not wearing shoes?" I asked Zero.

"I'm too lazy to wear shoes; I want to walk barefoot for now," Zero said as we got down on the first floor of the palace.

My four beasts, who had been waiting for us on the first floor, appeared to me, we all went to the dining area of the palace. When we got in the dining area, I sat down, as did Zero and the four beasts.

"Don't you think we're going to eat something delicious, my lady?" Jeff asked me

"Why? Do you want it also?" When I asked, the four beasts all nodded quickly.

"All right, when we're done eating," I said, and their sadness faded.

"I'll take you to the elf palace," Zero announced suddenly to me.

"I can go there myself, Zero; you just stay here in the palace to relax," I told Zero.

"I want to take you there because I am getting bored," Zero said, so I didn't say anything.

"All right, you can take me there," I said and began eating.

When we finished eating, I stood up, and the four beasts quickly sat down while the helpers I had ordered to cook again prepared the food for four beasts.

"There will never be a shortage of dishes!" Gabriel said, and I laugh.

"I'm leaving. Guard the palace," I said, turning around and changing my clothes. In addition, I'm wearing the cape that was given to me.

"Zero, Let's go," I said to Zero as we walked out of the palace, holding hands.
