NOVEL NEXT Testing The Distortion
Chapter 69 Testing The Distortion
The wolf had its focus entirely on the task at hand. With complete trust in the witch hat's ability to perform its task. The wolf projected its aura, filled with the power to control nature, covering the entire area to contain the distortions. With the distortions contained, the wolf proceeded to the next stage, formulating a plan to revert the distortions and return the area to its natural and undisturbed state.
The wolf wanted to test the strength of the distortion, so it directed a small amount of its energy toward it. In return, the distortion rebounded the energy so fast that the wolf couldn't dodge it. The wolf endured the impact and the pain. It then realized that it couldn't face the distortion head-on; it needed to find an alternative approach to use its power.
The wolf's eyes glimmered as it made a wry grin, knowing how much it could learn by honing its skills on the distortions. It attacked the distortions again with a few techniques, testing each one on the distortion. The wolf brought up the dirt beneath it, imbuing its power into the dirt and forming it into a human weapon - a spear. Then, the wolf hurled the spear directly at the distortion, striking it dead in the center. The wolf was briefly attuned to the distortion and felt itself consumed by the outside force. However, with effort and willpower, the wolf resisted, not succumbing to the strange force.
The wolf shook its head briefly before making more human weapons, realizing the distortion seemed unable to repel materialized objects. It continued to barrage the distortions with its human weapons. They collided with the chaotic rift, and the continuous force caused it to congeal into a softer, malleable form. Although the wolf saw success with its methodology, it knew it was only a temporary solution. The wolf looked at the witch hat to check its progress and was not disappointed.
The witch hat had been making ample progress. It had learned to control its newfound power and had already formed the energy into a sharp blade. But unlike the wolf's aggressive approach, the witch hat seemed to be taking a slower approach. It transformed another energy into a thin, fast river and carefully placed the energy blade into it. As soon as the blade touched the current, it flashed, gaining incredible speed, becoming almost invisible to the naked eye, shooting forth at a high speed.
