3181 Peak
Chimpman who had inheritance had awakened the bloodline. It is the first time something like this had happened since I had come to this world.
It made me ecstatic, not because of the getting another bloodline to harvest, but because of getting a Peak-Primary-III bloodline.
Till now, I had stayed away from the Peak-Primary III with the bloodlines. They are too powerful for me.
Now, with it awakening the bloodline, I got it, and it made me happy because now, I could take my plants to Peak-Primary III.
I immediately selected the plants, that will get the growth energy coming from it. The first one is a stainless blood-soul lotus. The most important resource for me, I need it at the high-level possible.
Unfortunately, only a limited amount of growth energy would be produced from it and I have too many plants.
I had selected only four of them, excluding even the spatial tree. I love it and its fruits are very important to me, but I do not need the seeds in the very near future.
I need the stainless blood soul lotus, which I will use before and after my breakthrough into the Peak of Primary II, while I will need spatial seed much later than that.
I only focused on it for a moment, before turning my complete focus on the black-scaled Lizardman.

I am slower than it, but I am defending its every attack.
Though I am thinking about letting, it give me a few cuts after my injuries heal. Before I do that, I will need to get an antidote to the invisible poison, which it had coated on its blade.
It is not poison energy, but an alchemical solution. I use alchemical solutions in battle and know how dangerous they are.
I had connected a few samples of it and my clones are trying to find the most efficient ways to destroy through the energy.
I do not have time to create an alchemical antidote.
“I am a disappointed human. I thought you will try your everything to kill big bad me, but you are only defending,” it mocked as it launched a flurry of attacks, which I had defended in quick succession, without letting them hit me.
“You are the one to talk. You have not even been able to give me a single nick and now telling me to attack you.”
“It’s truly laughable, Grimm,” I mocked back.
A blaze of anger lit up in its eyes but had controlled it well while increasing the intensity of its attacks with a different method.
It had a vast collection of methods. It is using them one after another.
Most people, whether it is Grimms or people, used a fixed set of methods. It is not like they do not have them; inheritances and bloodlines are filled with them, but choice chose a select few.
So, they could focus on them, and train so well that it became their second nature.
This is one of the talented. It had used a lot of methods and it is skilled in each of them. Such talent is quite rare; in my life, I have come across very few people who have it.
Time passed, and I continued fighting against it.
A little more than ten minutes passed and when my clones finally succeeded in creating the energy that can destroy its poison.
Since my injuries healed, I wasted no time in letting them cut me. Though I made it work hard for it; making it believe it had done that on its own, and not me letting it do it.
After doing it with so many Grimms; I had become quite good at it.
Sometimes, I couldn’t help but wonder whether I had become a masochist who likes to get hurt. The indications did not seem like it, but it is my opinion, which could be said to be biased.
I will need to take the opinion of the professional to know the truth.
Rip!
Another of its blade cut through me, giving me a wound that is too close to my heart. I do not like it when the blade comes such close to my fatal spot, but I need to do it, to make it more convincing.
It stopped after the attack near my chest and looked at me with a grin.
“What are you laughing at?” I asked angrily. “I am laughing because you are dead and you don’t even realize it,” it said, and alarm flashed in my eyes for a moment, before it turned to anger.
“Don’t insult my experience, Grimm. I have fought too many of you to fall for such a trick.” I said back angrily, which only made the smile on its face bigger.
“It is not a trick. The injuries I have given you may seem harmless, but I had mixed a very dangerous poison inside them.”
“Poison, which is undetectable to sense and internal defenses. It spread through the body silently and wait for its activation,” it said with a laugh that is barely able to contain.
I looked at it with horror before beginning to take a step back, but suddenly, I froze and my body darkened and fumes became came out of me.
“I told you, human. You have been poisoned,” it said as it appeared directly in front of me, while I watched its frozen eyes, filled with extreme pain.
That is what I am feeling.
“Now, die,” it added and attacked. The attack was fast. If landed, it will tear through my chest.
“Wha”
I remained frozen till its blade reached halfway, when I moved, shocking it.
Puch!
It reacted fast, but I was faster as I am prepared. I avoided its sword and pierced my sword into its chest before it could retreat and sent energy into its body, which froze it and begin to break its defenses.
Unlike me, it is not acting. I am too cautious to let that happen.
A moment later, it had disappeared into my core, while I moved my eyes to search for another enemy.
I am doing well, and looking around, I am the fastest in the killing. Others might be more powerful than me, but I had experience, and it is helping me a lot.
Though I am perfectly aware that absolute strength is even more important. I had nearly died at the hands of Aqua Chimpman and it was not even among the strongest in this battlefield.
There is a level above; those guys are the real terror. If I faced them, I will be dead.
Hun!
I was just looking when I felt eyes on me and saw a Sealman looking at me from the lake.
I only blinked, and it was halfway toward me.
‘Fuck!’ I cursed loudly as my body shuddered. This Grimm is powerful, as powerful as Apeman and even more.
I was hoping I would not come across such an enemy after facing one recently, but fate seemed to have other plans for me.
