"Did I do it?" Christensen asked as he struggled to stand up.
Leo stood as still as a pig breast frozen in a deep freezer.
The gigantic Titan Rhino fell just before him, but the beast was not dead. The wind induced by its powerful breathing pushed against Leo's white fur and the Frost Wolf could not bring itself to do anything.
As soon as Christensen stood up, Leo looked up at its master for help.
At this moment, the Frost Wolf had a strange feeling. For a long time since it knew Christensen, it was always the one that protected the prince.
There was never any situation where Christensen became capable enough to protect him. Leo was a powerful Frost Wolf but this Titan Rhino despite being a Grade E beast also was a next level horror, Leo was too frightened to fight.
Christensen saving it from this situation left Leo feeling strange.
Leo didn't care though, at this moment what it wished for was to save its life, Christensen did not disappoint it. "Leo, easy boy…, stay put".
Christensen learned a lot of things from Legolas during their short time together and one of them was the strategies of communicating with beasts.
His words seemed casual but they managed to keep Leo calm.
Christensen sweat bullets as he thought of a way out of this situation.
'For Leo to feel so frightened, this beast must be a horrifying monster'.
'Even after such a deadly attack, it's still alive'.
'Think Christensen…, think, f*ck, if only master was here'.
Christensen took a few seconds to calm himself down but once he did he focused back on the massive Rhino. At this moment, the Titan Rhino was asleep which gave him 2 options, finishing it or running for it.
'If I decide to run for it and the Rhino wakes up, I'm screwed'.
Calmer now, Christensen finally observed his surroundings.
At this moment, they were stuck inside what felt like a normal depression that was on an ice floor. Probably, the Rhino's weight made the ice to sink in.
Yes, at this moment, Christensen finally understood the reason for the cold in the air as they found themselves in an icy plain.
He wondered what a Rhino of this size was doing here but it didn't matter.
He turned to face his beast. "Leo, look at me, stay calm and listen to me".
"On my signal, we'll attack the beast".
"Target its eyes, I'll try to stab its belly, we're killing it".
"3…, 2…, 1! Now!"
Leo felt adrenaline flowing through it as it pounced on the massive Rhino. 2 spear icicles were formed the next moment which it flung at the Rhino's eyes.
Clang!
Metallic ringing sounds reverberated as the spears shattered.
Beside the beast, Christensen's eyes widened in shock as his sword also shattered on making contact with its exposed belly. "Such defense…"
His eyes widened in horror. "It's an Armored Titan Rhino!"
Having been disturbed by the attack to its eyes, the Rhino's massive eyes finally regained consciousness. As it looked at the white wolf that stood before it, it snorted before sneezing and farting at the same time.
The arrogant fart seemed to cause an earthquake in this small space.
This time, the Rhino did wonders as the ice that froze its nose shattered while the sword that stabbed its anus flew out following the fart like a hurricane.
Christensen's eyes widened in horror. "Run!"
"He's strong but he's not fast!"
Christensen tried his best to stay calm as he directed Leo. One thing that gave him confidence now was that Leo was at his best in this environment.
A Frost Wolf was at its effective best in a snow region.
"Leo, Ice Domain".
"Aim at their legs with Spear Icicles".
"Jump at the moment anyone of them is about to fall".
Whoosh! Whoosh!
At this moment, master and beast entered a strange state of absolute concentration and synergy as Christensen gave orders while Leo executed them.
The ice domain was even more powerful here as an oppressive icy atmosphere permeated the air, slowing these massive beasts even further.
With the spear icicles, Leo decided their fates.
3 spear icicle shots were all it took to incapacitate one of their legs, and once they fell, they ended up forming depressions like the ones that they just came out from. Christensen devised another strategy around the depressions.
By using their weight against them, they formed depressions which soon trapped all of them in one big hole, allowing their prey to escape.
Christensen dared not stay, it took all his brainpower to orchestrate this escape from death. Leo ran all the way till they were out of sight.
Questions remained though, questions that Christensen sought answers for.
Where was this ice field?
Why were Armored Titan Rhinos in an ice field?
