Chapter 66: The Beastmaster

No adult predator is easy to deal with, and in a race for life, surviving is a testament to strength, a testament to excellence. Male lions have never been numerically advantageous, hunting skills and naturally evolved minions, their natural weapons and armor. With Flowey's help, Bran doesn't feel that such an opponent is invincible. But if he wants to help the lioness return to the lion pack, then he must be the challenger and drive away or kill the young lion king alone.

In order to ensure that the lioness family had a safe period, Bran preferred to kill the lion. But with only the two short knives in his hand, it was somewhat difficult to achieve, so he had to adjust the weapon.

......

Bran is now with the lioness family and keeps a safe distance from the lions. He laid out the bits and pieces of his body on the ground one by one, until he finally found the dining knife.

Bran sighed and muttered, "Now I don't need you anymore. The knife shuddered slightly.

"I know it's not right, it's abandonment. I don't want to abandon anyone, but you're no longer useful. ”

"I don't know what to do, I can't carry you like this with me forever. ”

"I know it's not right......"

"Maybe it's self-comforting, maybe it's making you happy, and you'll be there for me in a new way of life. The knife made a crisp sound, as if in approval. It seems that as long as you accompany Bran, nothing else matters. It's just Bran's vain self-soothing when he's most helpless. It is the schizophrenia of Bran, the illusion of Bran's self-deception. It had been Bran's only inner recourse, his last conjecture against fear.

Looking at all the bits and pieces on the ground, they gradually merged into the two short knives, and finally the dinner knife gradually blended in. All the spirits have also come together, and they are the false barrier that Bran has built in his search and security. It is Bran's imagination when he has been unable to sleep peacefully for countless days and nights, and it is the bubble established in his spirit that no one has punctured. Now they have finally been removed by Bran and become his weapon to challenge the Lion King. He will take all these former vulnerabilities with him to prove his strength.

Eventually, a pair of sharp blades, more than two feet long, as sharp and curved as a lion's teeth, took shape in Bran's hands. Spirituality began to circulate in the blade, and golden, silver stars continued to emerge from the blade.

It's a pair of heavy handguards, but they have a light and sharp look. Bran looked at the double knives in his hand and said softly, "You are my guts. ”

......

The lioness walks towards the lions with Bran and Flowey, which catches the attention of the lions. But most of them just lazily raised their bodies to look at them, and then fell back on their stomachs. Bran and Flowey were too small to cause the lions to be too wary, not to mention the fact that there was a lioness they were familiar with.

As he approached the lions, Bran kept reassuring Flowey, telling him that this was his own battle and that he was not allowed to participate in it.

In any case, this not too long road has finally come to an end, and it has completely entered the warning range of the male lion. So the lion king came up and let out a demonstrative roar, shaking his majestic sideburns, waiting for his expected submission. But Bran let out a cry of challenge, which made the lions agitate, and all the lions got up vigilantly, and there was a tendency to gather around.

The lioness let out a roar, and the gathered momentum faded, leaving the Lion King and Bran standing facing each other.

......

This is a full-fledged male lion who is at his peak in every way. Even if you simply stand there, you naturally have a thick majesty. Invisible coercion emanates from the lion's body, the result of a thousand tempered strengths. It didn't take Bran lightly because of his insignificance, the Northlanders were the kings of the plains, and even a child would let the other beasts deal with it carefully. And the lion could sense that there was a force in Bran's body that made him feel dangerous.

Bran had nothing but excitement in his heart. The trembling feeling of danger made him feel an indescribable pleasure, and he couldn't suppress it, he just wanted to be more dangerous and more exciting. He loved the tingling sensation of his scalp and his eyes getting brighter.

The lion understood Bran's intentions, and it understood that it was a battle with no way back. Unlike in the past, failure may simply be expulsion. It only felt pure killing intent from this villain's body, simple life or death.

Bran doesn't expect to entangle with a lion, the territory is open and there is no cover to draw on. In this 1-on-1 contest, the male lion has an absolute advantage in strength. The huge difference in body shape, a single collision is enough to make Bran unable to eat and walk. So Bran just wanted to kill it with one blow, using his agility and agility to pounce on the lion's neck and pierce its neck the moment the lion's attack was launched.

Yes, that's what it feels like to dance on a blade. Bran enjoys the pleasure of this danger, which makes people addicted and unable to extricate themselves.

......

After the confrontation and observation, the huge physical gap gave the male lion too much courage, and let its caution and caution gradually be replaced by impatience. It didn't hesitate any longer, lunging forward and then simply swinging its claws, sharp claws towards Bran's neck.

But its claws missed, and the little man vanished from its sight. It felt a panic, and then a massive pain in its neck caused it to lose all strength.

Bran thrust his two short knives upward, then sliced the lion's neck open from the middle to the sides. A stream of warm, fishy blood poured down Bran's head, enveloping him into a bloody man, and the lion's massive body crushed him underneath.

Bran crawled out with the help of the lioness when he felt a tingling pain in his left shoulder. He didn't completely avoid the swing, but the nervousness just now made him less sensitive than usual. When the tension subsides, the weakness and pain all return. Bran now felt physically empty, not physically tired, but mental. He finally understood why the Northlanders loved to die, even if it was only for a moment. But, it's so cool......

Bran felt like it was all worth it. It's not because the lioness has returned to the lion pack, it's not because he killed the lion king, just the trembling feeling between life and death is worth everything he has to give.

......

Now the lions have a new king, Bran. It's just that this new king hasn't brought much change, he can't exercise the rights of the king of the lion pack, and he won't fulfill the corresponding obligations, he is teasing a few lion cubs at this time.
