Chapter 35: What The Fuck!!
"That old fool is destroying his core for more celestial energy!" Josephine exclaimed, her voice laced with surprise.
"He’ll die the moment the celestial energy runs out!" the fox lady gasped, equally shocked.
Sunny remained unmoving as black smoke enveloped the elder. Before their eyes, Malik underwent a terrifying transformation, swelling into a colossal black werewolf.
"GRAAAAA!!!" he roared, the sound shaking the very foundations of the castle.
"I’ll use this temporary strength to kill you! I don’t have time, but with this boost, I’ll surely end you!"
"Boost in strength? You only gained five stages... You’re still a Celestial rank, just at the tenth stage," Sunny stated, his tone flat and unimpressed.
"Just?!" Malik bellowed, a furious snarl contorting his monstrous face. He lunged at Sunny, a blur of black fur and raw power.
"Watch out!" Josephine and Star cried out in unison, but before either could react, a piercing gray beam of light shot forth from Sunny’s eyes. It struck Malik instantly, encasing him in a stony shell, transforming the raging werewolf into a lifeless rock sculpture.
"....?!"
BAM!
Everyone present stared at the petrified werewolf in a mixture of shock and disbelief. They watched, mesmerized, as Sunny casually walked towards the motionless figure, stepped onto its head, and with a single, deliberate exertion of force, shattered it into countless pieces.
