Host, Please Be Honest! What Exactly Are You?

Pah! Pah! Pah!

~Gruuuuu~

Bam!!!!

A shattering noise thundered out, followed by a rain of bones.

The flower punched its bony spices and flower petals into the pile of bones it stood on.

GRUUUU~~

Everyone trembled while watching it rain human bones.

F***!

What powerful strength!

Too bad they couldn\'t see the battle clearly.

Though the Mother was already on an elevated spot on the pile of bones, the other towering flowers surrounding it only gave them a glimpse of the flower\'s head.

But this much, coupled with Chan-ki\'s jumping image, was enough to visualize the scene.

What a blockbuster!

If any movie producers were here, they would cry their eyes out, wishing they brought their cameras over.

What a show!

Chan-ki continuously rolled away with his whip at hand like Indiana Jones, evading countless rolling borders coming at him head-on.

To the left, to the right. Jump!

Bam! Bam! Bam!

The mother seemed to have time fully crazed, pulverizing the ground like the hulk.

~Smash! Smash! Smash!

All 6 of its blood-red petals lined with human bones were quick to stomp on the ground, not Chan-ki a moment\'s rest

But this wasn\'t all.

Its spiky ribcage-like claws also came at him like daggers.

Wooow!

The air whistled dangerously. And for a moment, Chan-ki also began seeing his death leaning on the walls, tapping his watch as though waiting for his end.

[Death]: Hurry up and die. I don\'t have an eternity to wait for you.

Chan-ki, gritting his teeth.

Want him to die? Impossible! He was going to live to die another day.

One knee to the ground, Body twisted like Neo in the matrix dodging bullets, Chan-ki evaded the many bony spikes coming at him.

Had his strength been even less, he would\'ve long died.

This battle only firmed his heart on getting stronger. \'When I get back, I must break through to the next Dan!!\'

Bam! Bam! Bam!

His golden tornado slapped the Mother pearls and flaws away, carrying him to the flower\'s bony stalk.

Don\'t look at how he got here this fast. All this time, he studied the Mother, realizing that it seemed to have some sort of lag-time between its attacks.

That is, if it used all its petals and claws, it would wait for 1~3 seconds before attacking again.

He also noticed that the colors of its petals would turn slightly darker than before whenever it was about to launch an attack.

Taking all this into account, Chan-ki not only moved at the precise time but also managed to place the first part of the seal on the bony Stalk before doing backward cat wheels, moving far away from it.

Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!

The Mother attacked ruthlessly after lag-time.

And as planned, Chan-ki dodged until the creature seemed to run out of juice.

Seal #2.

He did the same act, placing the 2nd talisman paper in the position instructed by the Grandmaster.

\'Alright. 3 more to go.\'

~Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!!~

The Mother continuously went rouge, with Chan-ki cartwheeling, jumping, sliding, and moving like a circus performer.

And soon, all 5 parts were placed on the flower\'s stalk.

But something bizarre happened the moment he placed the last piece.

Vmm!

All 5 golden brown strips moved closer to one another and something as one... Until they looked like one piece of an uncut paper sheet.

Good... The seal\'s powers were about to be unleashed.

But there was still one thing Chan-ki had to do to fully activate it.

Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!~

Chan-ki waited for lag-time once more before moving his hands rapidly.

~Tsa-Tsa-Tsa-Tsa-Tsa~

Chan-ki chanted vigorously. And even after lag time was over, he still dodged while chanting.

His attention was mainly on the paper that slowly lit up in blue.

Like an empty jug filled with water, the blue color began from the bottom part of the sheet, lighting upwards.

\'Come on... Come on...\'

Chan-ki was also getting anxious, as his strength was slowing down.

What? He had been fighting for so long, moving across the tedious jungle of flowers.

So how could he not feel drained?

If not for these flowers being slightly weaker than he was, it would\'ve been impossible to get to where he was.

In the end, Strength was what did the talking!

Eh?

The flower noticed the strangeness on its money stalk, feeling its movements restricted by an unknown force.

Only when it looked onto its stalk did its petals stand alert.

Peel. Peel. Peel!

It used its bony spikes to peel the paper off to no avail.

The damn paper seemed stuck like glue.

And the more the blue light covered the strange paper, the more it felt its control over its spikes and petals grow weaker and weaker.

No... This mysterious golden paper was waking up its movements!

It looked at Chan-ki ruthlessly as though saying: You... You did this!!

Bam! Bam! Bam!

It wanted to use its remaining strength to kill the bloody human that placed it in this predicament.

Die! Die! Die!!

Bones flew up in the air with its every attack.

Breathe in, breathe out.

Chan-ki\'s breathing began growing hoarse.

\'Almost there. Almost there....\'

The blue light had covered almost all of the paper.

Bam!... Bam!.... Bam... Bam...

The Mother\'s attacks grew visibly weak until it could no longer raise its petals and spikes after its last attack.

The Mother froze in a hunched position, with its petals and spices touching the floor.

Asleep?

\'Hmph! I\'ll be the judge of that.\'

Poke. Poke.

Chan-ki nudged it severally, just to be sure.

After all, wasn\'t this how Horror movies like to jump scare a person? No way! He was too smart for that.

Poke. Poke. Tap. Tap. Pah. Pah!~

Hmmm...

Chan-ki sighed with relief, also noticing that all the other flowers also hunched down similar to the Mother and seemed to have fallen into deep slumber too.

Hahahhahaha~

Chan-ki fell onto the pile of bones, feeling his knees and body quake hard.

\'Success!\'
