"You are a good human. You have forced me to use this very straining move; even that bitch didn't do that." It said as it looked at me with raging anger.

"Still, it is worth it, as the price will be you," it said and came at me; the speed it came at couldn't help but shock the hell out of me.

It is fast, very fast; it appeared beside me in a fraction of a second and brought down its halberd like a death scythe, which covered it in all three elemental energies.

"Hmmph!"

I harrumphed, and all my strings hands moved away, and at the same time, the spear disappeared from my hands and was replaced with the great sword. A sword that had a black rock handle and a blood-red crystalline blade, which seemed sharper than anything, I had come across.

As the great sword appeared in my hand, I could see the recognition flashing in its eyes, and with it came alarm, but it replaced that feeling with burning fury as it attacked me.

I did not hold back either; I harnessed every bit of strength I could from my boost and also charged up the enchantment as much as I could.

There was a flashy fire on my blade; I even deactivated the field and just swung the sword with sheer power, like I had been doing in the dream.

CLANNNNG!

The weapons clashed, and they clashed with such power that even the domain couldn't bear it. The cracks begin to form on it as the shockwave hits the edges.

"You are really Michael Zaar." It said, and I smiled. "I am, and you should also run away before I kill you," I replied, to which its expression froze.

"Hahahaha..."

The freeze lasted for a moment before the Bearman began to laugh loudly, and tears started to stream down from its face. It took a while for it to calm down, and when it did, it looked at me with a calm, clear eye, "I am a Grand Lord, Zaar; not some puny High-Grandmaster that will get caught in your little strings,"

"If you want to, bring them out; I will tear them down," it said, and before I could reply, it came at me; with a fury that far surpassed the past.

CLANNNG

My sword clashed against its halberd again before I took it back and swung again; my action had surprised it as, till now, I have never initiated the offense; I have always fought defensively.

CLANNNG CLANNNG CLANNNG

My sword clashed again and once again; I took it back and clashed and clashed again after that. I begin to use everything I have, with combat skills, that far surpass that of before; earlier, I used a spear, which is not my main weapon. The sword is my main weapon, the one I am most skilled with.

My sword clashed against it, and so are the energies; both energies clashed; I gave its energies unrestricted access to me and sent my energies at it, which began to injure slowly.

As for its bloodlines are in huge amounts and extremely powerful, but despite that, they are being swallowed in my armor and processed before being fed to my runes; they love the bloodline energy.

I should finish it off, but instead, I am fighting it with reckless abandum; well, there is a reason for that, I am erasing the weakness I have.

The dream had told me what the desire could do to me, while there are many desires in my heart. The desire for such battles is immediate and easily exploited.

So, I am giving my heart what it wants, so it would satiate and wouldn't be exploited by the forest again.

This itself poses the risk of getting caught into another move from the forest, not to mention getting killed by the Grimm, but it is the risk I am willing to take because the attacks that target the desire possess the greater danger, and there is still a quite a forest, I have to cross before, I reached the last leg.

So, I fought, exchanging thousands of moves by minute, wrecking the strong domain, which now became unrecognizable, but the Grimm did not seem to care about that.

SLASH!

Minutes passed when suddenly its eyes turned dull, and I immediately took the advantage of the moment and slashed down my sword at it; I was only able to pierce my blade by a few inches as it came to itself pretty quickly and avoided the of death at the last moment.

It survived, but the experience seemed to shake it to its core; it is visible in its eyes.

"We should stop fighting humans; the forest will kill us before we kill each other," it said in a sobering voice, surprising me with a sudden turn.

It wasn't long ago it was threatening to kill me.

"No,"

"I have given you a chance earlier, Aege, but you did not listen; now you will die," I said and attacked, seeing its eyes blazed in a fury, but the fury did not stop responding to my attack.

CLANNNNG!

Our weapons clashed, but this time, there was a great change; the Grimm shot back. The bastard is running away; it uses the momentum of the attack and its power to create the speed boost.

"It was a fun battle Zaar, but it is over now. We will meet again, and when we do, I will kill you," It said as it went further and further toward me.

I could chase it, but it will a minute to catch it, and even then, it was very hard to kill it in a short time with just my sword, but I did not have to choose that lengthy option. Now that the desire for reckless battle had been satisfied, I could kill it with my trusted method.

"Rose Redemption," I said, and at that very moment, a beautiful red rose bloomed from the Grimms body to its horror.

The Grimms tried to stop it, but it could not; the rose bloomed, trapping the Grimms inside before stopping its momentum.

"Come," I said to the rose, and the giant violet rose came flying toward me, and three seconds later, it was in front of me with a Grimm trapped inside.

It is struggling, but its struggles are futile; it was right; if it had been my strings, it might have been able to break them, but it is the redemption that everyone deserves, even Grimms, and there is no escaping even for a mighty Grand Lord.

"Stop struggling; you will gain redemption soon, but before that, you will pay for the sins you have committed," I said and touched the huge violet rose gently; as I did, the rose disappeared.

Crack Crack Crack

As the Grimm disappeared, the half-destroyed domain began to crack apart and disintegrate, but its energies did not disappear; back in the world, it would become a death ground.

Back in the world, it takes centuries for the death grounds to disappear; the Grand Lords are the mightiest powerhouses, but they also herald destruction, and now, they are going to clash in numbers that never clashed before in the world.

I shudder at thoughts of destruction our battle would cause to our world; there is a chance that we might end up destroying it; just thinking about it made me shudder in my soul, and the horrifying thing is that there is nothing one can do to avoid it.

The war of Grand Lords is inevitable, just like its death.
