Chapter 399: Don't Underestimate Rabbits

-----
The dark shadow sect members looked at the scene with surprise, although they were not more than three in this section of the map, separate from the ones Tisha had slain, they were looking at the squadron of beast-kin with disbelief.
These amazing beast-kin were rocking! They were doing an amazing job… which was very surprising to them. But why? Well, beast-kin are amongst the most discriminated races in the entire world, they're usually the most that get enslaved too, and the ones that are the most slaughtered by other races in masse.
They're the race that everyone gathers their hate against after the Vampires, for some reason, and it is simply unknown other than the explanation given previously that says about the dream fox venerable being at fault for this, it appears that beast-kin are the most hated race after vampires.
But there could be a reason behind this? Well, not like Pekora or her allies cared, they were beast-kin, they never cared about what the people thought about them, they lived in harmony with nature, a nomadic race that explored the wilderness gathered food, and lived off nature itself.
But the dark shadow sect members were shocked nonetheless, seeing these beast-kin working so hard and doing so amazingly well against their shadow beast woke some inner anger, some racial hatred within their very cold hearts… it made them want to kill them more than anything!
They gathered shadow energy from the leftover of the slain shadow beasts, and quickly summoned three gigantic chimera shadow beasts, sending them to slay the beast-kin with everything they had! They were sure it would work somehow, after all these beasts were as strong as Rank 3 Peak Stage!
The chimeric beasts of all shapes and sizes reached the beast-kin in an instant, roaring loudly and crushing the earth with their enormous bodies, their claws were more than capable of slicing through anything they wanted. And their fierce glares were packed with strong burning and fierce hatred.
These shadow beasts were indeed in another level… one of them had the shape of a bear with many limbs and two wolf heads, another was a big bird with several long necks and heads and a second pair of giant bear clawed limbs, and the last was one in the shape of a giant cat with a variety of heads and a long snake-headed tail.
"GROAR!"
The massive bear-shaped chimera shadow beast used its various limbs to make the entire earth tremble, hitting the ground and blowing away the powerful plants that were attacking them, the vines were broken apart, and shadow spears began to emerge from the ground, attacking the beast-kin.
Right after that, there were the deadly other two chimeric shadow beasts, attacking with everything they had, the squadron of beast-kin was being pushed back with ease! Pekora quickly rushed forward, stopping her allies from being damaged any further as she erected a massive wall of wood!
BOOM!
The three beasts clashed against the wall, breaking it apart with utmost ease! However, Pekora unleashed a deadly sunlight beam against the bear-shaped chimeric shadow beast, while the bird-shaped and the cat-shaped ones were attacked by several sharp, spear-shaped roots!
BOOMM!!! CLASH! CLASH!
The giant bear was impacted head-on but instead of dying instantly, it survived the deadly sunlight beam, and charged its own dark beam, firing it directly at Pekora!
FLASH! BOOM!
The massive flashing beam of darkness impacted Pekora with all its might, but Pekora resisted it by gritting her teeth, as a powerful magic barrier around her body helped her withstand the hit, somehow!
CLASH!
"GAAH…!"
Pekora was thrown away by the beam, incapable of being able to resist the powerful beam anymore, she fell over the floor, feeling pained…
"Ugh… How strong is this monster?!" she wondered, as her spirits floated around her.
"GRRAARRR!"
The massive bear reached her once more, its various limbs were about to crush her! However, she swiftly evaded them as she jumped away!
CLASH!
Using her powerful legs as a rabbit, she began to jump around, evading the shadow beasts' attacks, while firing sunlight beams, the only attack of her young sunflower spirit, while manipulating the nearby trees to constantly harass the other two shadow beasts, this way she got some time to think and fight and evade, if possible!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
She evaded the attacks from the deadly shadow beast and then infused her mana into her body, enhancing her powerful physical strength but also summoning something else within her!
All beast-kin had this innate power.
What innate power? Well, the ability to develop… Beast Magic!
Aside from elemental magic, there are other types of magic not dependent on the mana core… such as Smithy Magic, Alchemy Magic, Tailor Magic, and… there is magic not dependent on mana core but race traits.
And beast-kin also enjoy such a thing, they can naturally develop the mysterious beast magic! It is similar to spirit magic, but it even helps them develop contracts with beast spirits, mystical totems that represent animals in the wild…
Dependent on their race, they can take upon the power of a certain totem and gain their blessing, bonuses of power, and abilities, which are interconnected into the spells they could conjure… of course, it wasn't as easy either. This power was brought to them by making contracts with these spirits first!
Beast spirits were mysterious and even rarer than elemental spirits, but there were certain parts where they were abundant, certain sacred grounds across the world, in the wilderness…
But now, Pekora was calling upon her beast spirit, the one she had not showcased yet…
Naturally, as she was a rabbit-kin, her beast spirit was…
A Rabbit!
FLASH!
A small rabbit suddenly emerged before her, as if she had summoned something grandiose, but it was just a small, fluffy, and gray-colored rabbit!
The shadow beasts were left disappointed, as the dark shadow sect members began to laugh…
"It's just a rabbit!"
"What is this?!"
"Hahaha!"
"I'm about to show you what a rabbit can do…"
