Chapter 311 The Awakening Of An Ancient Bloodline
It was not too long ago, when Acorn was revealed the truth about their tribe by his grandfather.
"W-We are the descendants of a god?"
"Yes, that\'s right… Our Bloodlines are tied with his divine power. However, such powers had been lost by the passing of time…"
His grandfather walked around, taking something from the interior of a wooden box.
"However, after over fifty years of research, I found a way to awaken such a power."
"W-What? Really?!"
"But it comes with great risks…"
Acorn\'s grandfather showed his grandson the recipe, and even the most important materials, which he already had gathered and placed over the table.
"Make this potion and save it for a time when you most need it. The direst of times when bombs, potions, or anything else won\'t work… When you feel like you must put your life on the line for those you care for."
Acorn recalled such words when he drank both potions.
Without him being able to do a single thing, he was paralyzed.
He couldn\'t help anybody, nor he could do a single thing.
He was just deadweight.
Elayne wanted him to run away and alert his tribe.
It was a fair tactic, something he should had done.
…But deep down, Acorn had his pride too.
He didn\'t wanted to turn on his tail when there was his dearest friend right here, risking her life and everything else to protect everyone.
When he saw her crying in agony and pain…
When he saw her sacrificing herself for others.
Deep down, he wanted to do it.
He wanted to fight!
"I\'m sorry grandpa, I think I am using it a bit too soon…"
Both potions were drank in an instant.
One of them was named [Potion of Bloodline Awakening], to awaken his bloodline properly.
However, Acorn also included another one, a Potion he had crafted which had the power to shapeshift his body and turn it… monstrous.
The [Potion of Monsterfication].
He had never tried it before, and wasn\'t even aware of its true effects either, but its not like he had any other choice any longer!
"Elayne… I also want to put my life on the line…"
TRUUUMMMM…!
"Nnnggh… Guuuh! GUAAAAHH!"
Acorn\'s scream echoed across the entire underground as Elayne grabbed everyone else and quickly jumped away from the monster that suddenly emerged!
"Hmmm?!"
The Demon King himself suddenly stepped back, surprised by what he saw with his various red eyes!
"D-Divinity? Once more?!"
As the smoke began to slowly dissipate, the Demon King faced a true Monster.
It was a gigantic squirrel… but it grew horns, sharp, goat like horns as black as charcoal, his claws were enormous and oversized like those of a mole. His tail was long and had a sharp, black end, and his tiny teeth became sharp fangs that could tear through anything. His size easily surpassing over forty meters, Acorn had become a monster.
"GROOOOAAARRRRRRGGGH!"
His roar echoed across the entire place, as Elayne saw with eyes wide open what Acorn had transformed himself into to protect her.
The little Acorn, so filled with innocence and charisma.
The little fluffball that always brought everyone together…
"Acorn…"
Divinity began overflowing across his body, forming a white aura that seemed to slightly distort its surroundings. Acorn\'s eyes had completely become white, as his body gained countless blue tattoos.
"A giant squirrel monster…? You remind me of someone… Something…" The Demon King suddenly recalled a small squirrel that was once a servant of the gods in the old past. It was tiny, small, and cute, and was always being used as a messenger.
But what he found in front of him wasn\'t a cute squirrel at all!
"GRRRRRRRHHH… GRAAAH!"
Acorn, having gone completely berserk, immediately jumped towards the Demon King, whose size was only above twenty meters, his sharp mole-like claws slashed against his body, as the Demon King attempted to parry his blows with his weapons!
"A beast is a beast at the end, you won\'t amount to anything!
CLAAAASSSHHH!
Crack… crack…!
"Eh?!"
CRAAASH!
However, the weapons he had materialized out of his own Miasma suddenly began to crack and shattered into pieces!
"GRAAAARRRR!"
"Nnnggh..!"
Acorn\'s entire body slammed over the Demon King, pushing him down into the floor!
BAAAAAMMM…!
CRASH!
The ground shattered as countless cracks emerged over the bedrock. Acorn\'s claws grew larger and larger as he willed them, his divine aura spreading over his body!
"RAAAAHH!"
And then… he began to unleash countless slashing attacks against the Demon King with everything he had!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
"Nnnggh…! AAAGH!"
The Demon King\'s barriers shattered in an instant, his entire body was being slashed over constantly. Even after materializing into this form, he was getting beaten down!
"You damn beast!"
He quickly roared furiously, the mouth over his chest opened, gathering chaos and miasma and then unleashing a powerful beam attack!
FLAAAASSSHHH!
Acorn received the beam right over his face!
BOOOOOMMMMM!!!
"GRAAAAH!"
However, as the black smoke dissipated, Acorn\'s face… seemed completely unfazed!
"W-Wha… what?!"
The Demon King suddenly began to realize this wasn\'t a mere little familiar coming at him like the others… Acorn was a genuine threat!
"Don\'t mess with me!"
He quickly flew away from Acorn\'s grasp, as his Aura exuded from his body, four enormous arms as big as thirty meters emerged, materializing into metallic-like components, and then beginning to wrestle against Acorn\'s own claws!
CLASH!
"RAAAAH!"
CLASH!
"GROOOAARRR!"
CLAAASH!!!
Countless shockwaves broke the sound barrier constantly, as all surroundings continued to tremble.
The Demon King began giving it his all as his red eyes glowed bright red, unleashing beams of chaos energy that only burnt a bit of Acorn\'s brown fur!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOOM!!!
"RAAAAH!"
And Acorn loaded his fist with Divine Power, punching the Demon King into the ground!
BAAAAAMMMM!!!
