Blood Assimilation

With a cold expression, he regarded the apprehensive Flame Werewolves, briefly assessing the two most formidable threats among them before shifting his gaze to the remaining pack members, whom he deemed weaker and easier to eliminate. Without any preamble, he extended his index finger forward, toward the pack of werewolves, formless energy coalescing from the surroundings onto his fingertip.

The energy then abruptly transformed in nature, taking on a crimson hue that began to swirl into existence. Brawler Randy observed the formation of the crimson swirl of energy with a contemplative expression.

Subsequently, he decided to conduct an experiment by infusing a few strands of his psionic energy into the swirling mass of energy on his fingertip, causing another change to occur in the nature of the energy.

As he meticulously conducted his experiment, Flame Legs and Flame Claws observed the energy formation process, their eyes widening as they sensed dread emanating from the crimson ball of light on Brawler Randy's fingertip. Flame Legs reacted first, issuing a cautionary command to his pack members.

"Watch out!" He exclaimed belatedly, jumping out of the way with astonishing speed.

Before the others could register his warning, a swirling ray of light, carrying a terrifying heat signature, arrived in front of them. It targeted one of the flame werewolves, burrowing directly through their chest and leaving a gaping hole.

At some unknown point, Brawler Randy had launched his attack, which traveled at remarkable speed, catching the flame werewolves, including the target, off-guard.

Witnessing the terrifying and shocking occurence, Flame Claws jumped away from the pack members to protect himself, unaware that he had just done what the assailant wanted. From the beginning, the target of the ray of light wasn't even him, nor was it Flame Legs.

Brawler Randy wasn't expecting his attack to work on the two leaders of the flame werewolves, even if it had landed on them. With that awareness, he redirected his attention, targeting the weaker members of their pack.

After succeeding in eliminating his first target, he didn't stop there. His gaze turned sharp and ruthless as he commanded the ray of light to target each and every member of the flame werewolves, except for Flame Claws and Flame Legs, who had conveniently separated from their pack members to safeguard against his attacks.

The scene that unfolded was horrifying as the crimson ray of light, as if alive, chased after the fleeing flame werewolves and extinguished their lives by either burrowing through their skull or chest as if their bodies were made out of butter.

Very soon, the power held within the crimson ray of light died down along with the death of the weaker flame werewolves it targeted. This terrifying sight left both Flame Legs and Flame Claws in disbelief. They showed frightened expressions the next moment as they witnessed the aftermath of the annihilation conducted by Brawler Randy.

Even Liena, who was behind Brawler Randy, was shocked by his display of power and dominance, after witnessing the death of the weaker flame werewolves within seconds.

To ensure a meticulous sweep of his targets, Randy used his psionic energy on the skill to allow him to control its mobility telekinetically, making it easy for him to take down his opponents before it ran out of its destructive force. Previously, the [Blood Ray] skill could only attack one target at a time, which was why his first attack had only landed on one of the flame werewolves.

However, with his new application of psionic energy, which contained a trace of his will, he could command the Blood Ray to target multiple opponents. The only downside was that it demanded more time to develop and accumulate its potency, eliminating the element of surprise displayed by the regular effect of the skill.

Despite the downsides, which made it unusable on an opponent more than once, Brawler Randy couldn't deny the power of the skill. When facing opponents where he had no choice but to rely on a skill, the Blood Ray skill seemed like the one he planned on relying on the most.

At this point, he turned to face the only remaining flame werewolves, Flame Claws and Flame Legs, their eyes locking. As he glanced in Flame Claws' direction, he could feel an immense hatred emanating from his being, but he ignored it as he turned his attention to Flame Legs, who had a calm expression on his face as he scrutinized Brawler Randy.

Brawler Randy narrowed his eyes as he locked eyes with Flame Legs for a brief moment before turning his attention, facing Liena.

"Liena, can you take care of the big guy over there? I'll take care of the lanky one." Brawler Randy suggested, assigning Liena to fight Flame Claws. Meanwhile, he planned on dealing with Flame Legs, as he seemed more dangerous, judging from the aura of indifference he felt from his being. For some reason, he detested his calm expression despite witnessing the death of his pack members.

Upon hearing Brawler Randy's suggestion, Liena sighed as she wanted to fight Flame Legs instead of Flame Claws. She had faced off against the two before Brawler Randy awakened, so she knew how strong both of them were, including their strengths and weaknesses.

From their earlier exchange, she discovered that Flame Claws was a straightforward type who relied heavily on his strength to overpower his opponents. On the other hand, Flame Legs relied on his speed and judgment to combat his opponent, making him deadly as time went on in the battle.

When she fought against Flame Legs, she found herself defending against assaults that targeted her blind spots, and she was blindsided a few times, causing her deadly injuries. All the deadly injuries on her body were mostly caused by Flame Legs, even though he only attacked her a few times compared to the savage Flame Claws.

She wanted revenge, but with her haggard state, she was not sure if she could handle him. As she thought of her depleted state, Brawler Randy approached her and touched her shoulder. She tilted her head with a questioning gaze.

"What are you doing? Ah… This…" Her voice trailed off as she tried asking him about his intentions.

As soon as Randy's hand landed on her shoulder, her body jolted, feeling a warm sensation coursing through her body. All her injuries began to sting slightly, making her feel an itching sensation all over her body.
