1867: Puppet

Puppet

The Dark Fire is still covering me, and it had become extremely painful as it began its final assault. I have been having a very hard time maintaining my focus under such pain, but I am doing it. Once I lose focus, things will appear in the open; I don't want that to happen before it is ready.0

The Werewolf is currently helping its friends in friends in suppressing Danielle, who is beating the shit out of them, and if not for the timely help from the Werewolf, they would have been in a very bad state.

It is due to being Werewolf trying to save its friends that it had not attacked me further. Though, I could feel it is tracking me through its soul sense and growing frustrated by the inability of its fire to kill me instantly. I am sure, as soon as it gets the chance, it will attack me to finish the job.

I had asked Danielle to keep all three Grimm Monsters busy, especially the Werewolf. They should not get even a second to attack me. I am very close to reaching my goal, and till then, the busier the Grimm Monsters are, the better.

A minute had passed, and finally, the dark fire disappeared from my body; it was a very painful affair that is finally over.

The Werewolf had seen me coming out of its Dark Fire unscathed, and I could tell how shocked it is, but currently, it had no time to attack me. The three Grimm Monsters have launched the powerful assault on Danielle.

They want to finish her off first; when they are done with her, killing me would not be a problem for them but killing Danielle is harder than they have thought. 

She is resisting the assault of all three Tyrants without any problem; though she is not getting a chance to attack them like before, she is defending just fine with thousands of rainbow bubbles around her.

I did not interfere with the battle, nor did I want to. With my strength, it would be akin to suicide. I stayed on my spot and continued with my preparations; as soon I finished with it, I will deal with Werewolf bastard, and even being elite would not be able to save it.

"Fucking Grand Arts, why are they such pain to deal with!" The Bullman cursed loudly as it again attacked Danielle to be blocked by her bubbles.

Danielle is quite weak; while she may seem strong seeing her handling three Grimm Monsters without problem but she is quite weak. Her comprehension is very basic; it could be said she had only taken a small step in understanding it.

My mother, when she became Tyrant, had gained the strength of Elite Tyrant and was able to handle leader class Tyrants. She may not be able to kill them at first, but they were also powerless to do anything to her; as Elites, they were ants when she used her art.

There are reasons why Danielle had such a low comprehension of her art. While Grand Art is hard to comprehend and extremely few people could comprehend it, there are few things that could make the comprehension of earlier.

One of the things is legacies; the comprehension is written down by the predecessors. It is extremely helpful, sometimes one is stuck, and these legacies help clear the roadblock that could take months to years to understand by one's own efforts.

There exist some specific ways that help in comprehending the Grand Arts, these ways are extremely rare, and they rarely passed on. 

I had specifically spent few hours reading these ways for a mother to help her comprehend her Empire of Mist to a greater degree. I am going to remove the poison of her, and when I do, she will be able to show the real power of her Grand Art again.

If Danielle had these things, her comprehension of her Grand Art would have been much greater, and these Three Grimm Monsters would not have been that challenging to her.

These three Grimm Monsters are powerful and worked greatly in synch due to the different qualities they have. The Bullman possessed great raw strength while lightning Cheetaman posses speed, and the Werewolf have great magical powers thanks to its bloodline.

Twelve more minutes passed by, and shit is going crazy; the Grimm Monsters are now attacking Danielle with all their strength, and all she is doing right now is hide behind the bubble, but it is not she that is in a desperate state but the Grimm Monsters themselves. 

Despite attacking her with all their strength, there was not a single scratch her. She is completely fine under bubbles, and seeing her aura, it is not taking much for her to maintain her defensive stance while energy reserve for Grimm Monsters.

They are not on their end yet and still could continue such intense assault for a couple of more hours, but Danielle would not give them that much time. 

The way she is defending, it is clear that she is already getting used to the assault of the Grimm Monsters, and it won't take more than an hour before she begins her counterattack, and now, I am going to make it happen sooner with little push.

"Danielle, please keep the two in control; I am going to deal with this little wolf," I said, and shock appeared on all their faces, not only of the Grimm Monsters but also of Danielle. They all are so shocked that they had stopped fighting.

"Little bastard, it looks like you have grown some courage watching the battle from sidelines," The Werewolf said, without turning back at me, all its focus on Danielle, whom it considered the greatest threat.

"You know it is rude to talk without looking at people," I said with a smile and moved the fingers of my right hand. The next second, the huge body of Werewolf was frozen on its spot before its head moves back toward me, like a puppet.
