Blood Assimilation

Roar——

The chimera monster suddenly roared as it suddenly aimed its gaping huge maw with its razor-sharp teeth at Randy\'s gripped arm. 

\'Shit!\'

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Randy instantly became alert as he quickly rained down multiple fist attacks at the other party which caused it to be disoriented slightly.

And then he used that chance to immediately pull his hand away from its grip and thus was able to escape its huge maw that was aiming to maw down on his arm.

At this moment, he had escaped a considerable distance away from the chimera monster after barely getting out of its grip just now.

"Damn it, that was too close…" Randy muttered as he started sweating profusely from the close call just now.

\'Fuck! What should I do against something like this? This monster doesn\'t seem to be fazed at all by my attacks just now\' Randy inwardly complained as he glanced at the unscathed chimera monster in the distance. 

\'Even with my dual-assimilated state, I couldn\'t cause any damage to it, then what in the world could possibly work on it? Weapon techniques? Elemental attacks? But I don\'t have any of these techniques or spells, so I can\'t even check to see whether it would work or not…  Wait a second, I do have that spell that I learned from mom\'s grimoire! Should I try it out on this chimera monster and see if it works? There\'s no time to ponder about this, I need to act right now before it resumes attacking instead.\' 

Instantly, Randy gathered just enough of his magical energy into his hand, and while recalling the method of the spell, he immediately turned his magical energy into water, followed by turning it into cold energy, and then the cold energy was transformed into ice afterward. 

Right now, his arm was covered in ice.

After thinking about something, he immediately activated his other skills coupled with his newly learned technique.

[[Stealth Scales Skill Activated]]

[[Thermal Detection Skill Activated]]

[[Python Eyes Trait Automatically Activated]]

[[You executed the \'Traceless Form Technique\', all your aura and breath have been completely hidden thus unable to be sensed by others during combat]] 

With these announcements from the system, Randy could feel his aura receding after executing his newly comprehended technique. Even his breathing could be controlled with this technique.

\'With this, I should be able to sneak attack that bastard! Just wait and see how I punch a hole into your body. Alright, shall I check its energy with my infrared vision… Eh? What is that? How is that possible?\'

"What is this chaotic energy inside this monster\'s body?" Randy commented in disbelief.

The reason for his sudden reaction was because the other party had multiple energy surging inside their body, almost like the energies flowing inside his body.

But unlike his which flows freely and smoothly throughout his body, this chimera monster\'s energy fluctuation was more chaotic with different kinds of energy clashing inside its body, and yet it was able to stand there as if nothing was wrong. 

Randy wondered if that was how his energy flow was before he had awakened his innate ability.

And then he started wondering how he even managed to survive without dying if that was the case. 

After all, there was a possibility of the energies running out of control and destroying his meridians, thus crippling him and worse case, even killing him. 

\'Was I just lucky that nothing happened until my awakening? Then again, how is this chimera monster able to control that chaotic energy inside its body…?\'

While he was thinking this, the chimera monster\'s energies suddenly surged forth as if it was going out of control, and then all of sudden it calmed down as if nothing happened. 

\'What was that? Is that an ability? Is that why it was able to control that many different energies inside its body? If that is the case, then this is one terrifying monster. What else does it have? Since it is a chimera monster, then it should have multiple traits or something, right?\' 

Randy did not think too much at this time because after observing for a moment, he suddenly realized that the chimera monster appeared confused and was looking around for him. 

At this point, after pondering for a bit, he concluded that perhaps this was the reason why its energy fluctuations changed momentarily due to the shock of losing its prey.

Most likely the energies inside its body surged forth because it was angry after discovering that he was nowhere to be seen.

Randy could not waste this chance and immediately made up his mind and silently charged towards the other party that was still in confusion. 

When he was within reach of the chimera monster, Randy immediately launched his attack at the other party\'s throat since he could not reach its face with his current height despite looking much taller than before after he entered his assimilated.

[Frost Hand] Spell technique.

Puk! 

The sound of something penetrating a soft but firm surface resounded. 

\'Damn it, I missed? How is that possible? It shouldn\'t be able to see me right now, so how did it dodge my attack just now?!\'

"Grrr?" 

The confused chimera monster grabbed its neck that was bleeding after being pierced by something sharp, and immediately, it was infuriated and indiscriminately started swinging its arms around.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Randy immediately executed his footwork technique along with the Gale Riding Skill to barely dodge the frantic attacks from the other party.

\'Shit! Even stealthy combat is not working on this guy? How did it dodge my attack at the last moment? Don\'t tell me… Did it avoid my attack by its instinct alone? At any rate, I should continue to attack it and see what other abilities it might have besides its physical speed and its extraordinary senses\' Randy silently thought and concluded to himself.

But then he recalled that this chimera monster had a strange ability that could control the mixed energies that it had in its body.

Randy assumed that it was most likely the result of some sort of experiment on its body which allowed it to have such an ability, and although it was only a guess but it seems plausible. 

Thinking about this, Randy instantly approached the chimera monster from its blind spot and launched multiple slash attacks using his frost hand technique that he comprehended from within his mother\'s ice spell techniques. 

Slash! Slash! Slash! Slash!

The reason why it was a spell technique and not a magic spell was that this spell does not require one to form an image by reciting some incantation but rather it was a method of converting one\'s magical energy into an ice element and then using it to create anything portable in one\'s hand. 

In this case, Randy used it to cover his entire arm since he was not afraid of the cold energy due to his assimilated state that drastically enhanced his physical capabilities.
