Chikutal!

Margaret almost exclaimed.

She watched as the other man approached, his wolf-like head, sharp teeth and claws, and blood-colored mane all clear in the flames.

"I ...... I uphold the ancient pact and make a ...... with you"

Margaret stuttered slightly, but spat out Professor Sulu's words.

Chikutar has intelligence.

Its murderous vertical pupils glanced at the altar and ritual first, and there was no problem.

The Invoker is just an ordinary human being, without the slightest supernatural strength, but the sacrifice is very good, a big dog full of spirituality!

That's enough for it to feast on it, and it's going one step further in some of its abilities.

Well, what's more critical is that the other party is tied very tightly, and that woman doesn't have extraordinary strength.

The danger is low!

If it is satisfied, it may give the stupid human some power to bring more 'sacrifices'.

Chikutar arrived reservedly before the ceremony, opening his mouth wide and revealing a mouth full of sharp, snow-white teeth.

"Woo ......"

Looking at the drooling saliva, Harlock let out a whimper like a cry for help.

Looking at the useless struggle with food, Chikutar seemed even happier.

Bang!

Suddenly, a barrel poked out of the soil, and without warning, flames erupted.

"Whew!"

Chikutar's chest was a blur of flesh, and it roared, and the flesh squirmed, and it had a tendency to heal immediately.

"Wow!"

At this moment, the husky, which had seemed to be fixed to the altar and could not move, jumped up and bit Chikutal's right leg.

Poof!

Pale chains emerged from the ground, binding Chikutal's limbs from all sides.

"Well done!"

Immediately, Sulu's figure slowly emerged from under the dirt.

"Thank you, sir!"

Margaret was just about to answer happily when she was pulled by a force and moved several meters sideways.

Burst!

Where she had been, the soil had been covered in a black liquid that made a snorting sound of corrosion.

"Whew!"

The husky saw that Chikutal's mouth was aimed at him, and he quickly let go of the dog's mouth and ran as fast as he could.

Sulu saw that although Chikutar couldn't move, his belly was bulging high, just like the attack just now, he couldn't help but quickly step forward, and the ability of the [Wanderer] was fully opened.

Before Chikutar could spat acid in his mouth, the demon hunting dagger in his hand had already slashed through the other man's neck.

The sharp tip of the blade broke through the hard skin of the magical creature in an instant, and even easily cut off the bones.

Burst!

Blood splatters.

Sulu circled behind it, dodged a dying blow, and made up for it, slashing off the horse-shaped monster's head.

【xp+220】

"Good...... So fast! ”

Margaret looked at Sulu in shock: "Is this your true strength, Mr. Sean?" The power of the Mystic? ”

She saw Sulu's figure almost dissolved.

And, how terrible is it necessary to cut such a thick neck with one dagger and two knives?

Just thinking about it made her shudder.

"Harlock, take Margaret around the area......"

Sulu wiped the filth off the Demon Hunter's dagger and stared at Chikutal's corpse.

No matter how strong this magical creature's self-healing ability is, it will still die if it is cut off.

However, its limbs were still twitching unconsciously, and even the head that had fallen to the ground was opening its mouth wide and trying to maintain the intimidation.

"Good...... Good. ”

Margaret, who couldn't stand this horrific scene for a long time, agreed, and left with Harlock.

"It's time!"

Sulu was inspired, looked around, and quickly took off his clothes one by one.

He strode forward, using the spice that adhered to Chikutar's blood, and wrote countless strange runes on his body.

Dense runes spread all over the body, like a strange tattoo.

Every time he writes down a rune, he must have chanted arrogant words in his mouth, communicating mysterious powers.

By the end, he seemed to be wearing a blood-red bodysuit, and every rune was faintly beating.

Sulu stepped forward and aimed at Chikutal's corpse, slashing him out of the other's heart.

'I eat all the steaks fully cooked...... Hopefully there are no parasites! ’

A tangled look appeared on his face, and he immediately opened his mouth and bit off a large piece of flesh from the horse's heart.

This is the content of a flesh-and-blood ritual, from the 'knowledge of the mad gods'.

The Flesh Ritual has a long history, and it's not good, but it's not evil either.

There is a custom among the indigenous Caussos that when warriors hunt large prey, they smear their blood all over their bodies to boast of their prowess.

Its advancement is famous, it is the 'Dragon's Blood Baptism', the precursor ceremony of the [Warrior] path to the promotion of the [Dragon Warrior], and it has pitted the members of the Church who don't know how many God of War have become.

Sulu's premise for this flesh ritual is...... The ability to 'speak of hubris' must be mastered, and a chikutar must be found to be slaughtered immediately.

Its effect is equivalent to a potion that is highly effective, increasing its Constitution and Agility stats.

The sequelae is cursed by Chikutar, and if you encounter your own kind in the future, you will be attacked wildly, and you may be harassed by the other party's spirits.

This may be a bit of a problem for the physical side of the profession, but is it for Sulu?

Even if this Chikutar turns into an evil spirit, he is sure to push the other party back to the spirit realm!

"Hiccup......

Chikutal's heart was so big that Sulu felt like he was overwhelmed.

And the smell of blood echoed in the mouth, very disgusting.

He didn't vomit, which would have caused the ritual to fail.

Instead, he sat around the fire, uttered arrogant words, and danced a rather strange dance.

If ordinary people see this...... I'm going to be taken for a psychopath, or I'm going to be sent to an insane asylum......

In such a strange atmosphere, the blood-colored symbols on Sulu's body squirmed, like small insects, burrowing into his body through his pores.

His body gradually became translucent, and bones and blood vessels could be seen, glowing a fiery red color, as if they were being burned and melted by the fire.

'Here we go...... Following my previous experiments, there was no problem......

Sulu stared nervously at the stats bar, observing his stats:

……

【Ding! 】

[You performed 'Shivinado's Flesh Ritual', agility +0.5!] Constitution +0.3! 】

……

After a long time, Sulu, who had returned to normal, clenched his fists and performed a few grappling movements, and his bones erupted with crisp sounds.

"My body injuries are completely healed."

He put on his clothes, looked at the corpse of Chikutar, which had begun to decay strangely, and felt a little regretful: "It's a pity...... This kind of flesh ritual can't be repeated, otherwise, I can use it to strengthen my body to an incredible level. ”

"But...... Enough is enough! ”

Sulu clenched his fists: "With my current attributes...... As long as you use the elegant potion of cats, you can reach the bottom line of the inaugural [Shadow Warrior]! ”
