As he looked up to see the notification messages, all of a sudden his body became heavy and felt extremely sluggish. He felt like he had just put on several tons of weight on his body, his arms and legs suddenly felt heavier than usual, and he felt like even if he wanted to run he couldn't, what's worse there was nothing he could do about it.
While he was concentrating on his body, the ground began to vibrate as he raised his head he could see the demon beast appear right in front of him, however, Bernard wasn't paying attention to it since he was focusing on his body, with a blurry vision he could see the demon beast raise its claws and then cleaved down at him from his waist with its sharp claw before slamming his body against the wall.
The moment his body impacted against the wall Bernard felt his head quake as he fell to the ground, as he looked at his body and then his hp he couldn't help but panick.
At this moment not only has his hp taken a huge hit but even his body had been cut into two parts, Bernard wanted to move himself but not only was he not able to move his body every part of his body seemed like they were giving up on him, even his mind felt like it had gone blank and his thoughts were in complete disarray as laid on the ground helplessly.

However, Bernard was not listening nor did he have any single idea what was happening at this moment. He was more or less dead at this point to be precise he had fallen into a deep slumber, while he fell asleep Bernard realize his face become pale, he looked like someone who had died for long, his eyes sockets sunk in even his body had begun to dry up.
If anyone was to see him the way he was now they would be completely terrified, what's worse was the gruesome wound on his waist and the fact both his upper half and lower half were now separated into two.

[System will now begin revival with second life of host]
Once five seconds were over something strange happened at that moment, his blood which had been spilled all over the floor after Benard had been cleaved in two began to make its way back to his body, as this was happening his lower half which had been lying separately on the ground soon stood up and began to walk towards his body while the blood attach themselves back to his bleeding upper half.
As his lower half got to where Bernard was it fell down and slowly both parts began to merge themselves together, the broken bones miraculously merge and rejoin, this process went on for twenty seconds with the demon beast unaware of what was happening, to her Bernard was already deader than dead the moment he was hit by her secret poison gas.
He wasn't affected because she had shut him the poison while they were fighting, it happened before the fight since she knew she would be in labor for a long time. She decided to prepare a poison gas, this poison gas was so powerful that it was undetectable by anything even by nose, you only get to know when it hits you.
Another thing was the poison was to act as a preventive measure in case she was attacked by other demon beasts when she was in labor it would either scare them away if they were cautious or it would kill them if they proved to be stubborn and the tiny creature, had just been the perfect example of those who were stubborn.

Suddenly while Bernard was on the ground, his shriveled body which seemed like he had all his blood drained began to turn healthier so did his expression which was completely pale, while his blood storage was being used up, his body was quickly healing itself and becoming healthy.
While he was unconscious his body automatically drank the blood to heal himself, and with how much blood he had lost with the fact he had died once the system had used the blood storage.
With his health nearly full, gradually Bernard's eyelids started to flutter open and his pale vision returned to normal, while his head felt heavy and his body was slightly sore, as he woke up.
As he lifted himself off the ground, the first thing he did was touch his waist gently to see if there was any serious injury there, since the demon beast had cleaved it in half after being poisoned. To his greatest surprise, although his clothes was ragged but he could see no injury on himz however, Bernard still proceeded to inspect his body with a confused expression.
If he was to be honest, he didn't even know how died in the first place but judging from what he could see from the system notification messages he had died once which was surprising to him.
However, Bernard didn't have the time to continue inspecting his body, as he realized something the damn demon beast was coming at him again after it realized he wasn't dead as it thought, looking at the demon beast charged at him Bernard would have loved to run away after being killed by it once.
But then not only could he not run but his energy was already down which meant even if he wanted to run away he couldn't since the number of times he could use Dash had already fallen down to ten from the previous number it was before, after being killed by the demon beast in order to revive both his energy points, hp and blood storage were used up at the same time.
'How did I die? and how the fuck does the demon bast controls the poison since I can't detect anything, damn it this is going to be a pain in the ass real soon if I die again.'
Bernard thought to himself, as he saw the demon beast charge at him at full speed luckily for himself he wasn't that powerless against the demon beast's speed, since he had perception.
Thankfully, he had decided to use one of the free attribute points he got from leveling up three times to increase perception otherwise it would have been a problem for him, especially now that he couldn't spare any energy or health points, what's worse he couldn't use blood storage, which meant using blood base attacks had truly become a double edge sword.
With both energy, hp, and blood storage down there was no more time to goof around like he used to, as the demon beast charged at him at full speed Bernard countered it in full by using his perception, and at the same time, he also activated Meow Meow Cat Strike and send them all at once at the demon beast.
When the demon beast saw the annoying attacks coming at it again, it immediately held up all four of its claws and then crossed them against its body, shielding her weak spot from the tiny creature, nevertheless, the moment the power behind the attack faded away it charged at Bernard once more while trying to cleave at him with all fours.
But no normal what it did to its surprise it couldn't get to Bernard, it was like there was a thin layer of strong barrier protecting the tiny creature from her, nevertheless, she didn't give up if she could kill him before then she could also do it again, at most she would just add in more effort.
She didn't believe he was unkillable he might have just possessed something that could bring him back to life when he was on the verge of death, she thought. And continued to attack him ceaselessly, despite the fact Bernard was dodging the attacks and also sending his own back, the demon beast was still able to gain the advantage.
While they were fighting the demon beast got closer and closer, but even with that she only noticed the tiny creature became even more annoying since it seemed like he suddenly had eyes everywhere, no matter how fast her attacks were it seemed like he could predict them and not matter where or what angle they would come from.
What's more annoying was the red claws attacks that were coming at it and were always moving towards her weak spot, even though she could block it was still affecting her nevertheless, and it was gradually becoming a pain in the ass, considering they were endless.
At this moment both Bernard and the demon beast were going at each other tirelessly, with the other trying to gain the advantage over the other, no one wanted to lose because they both knew what was at stake for both of them, for Bernard it was his life and for the demon beast it was not only her life but that of her children.
It was the reason she was giving everything she got, she didn't know if the tiny creatures were more or were just its but she was sure once she took care of it, the rest would definitely flee for their lives.
Suddenly both Bernard and the demon beast let out a loud sound at the same time, Bernard had just shouted Meow Meow Cat Strike and the demon beast had let out a screech, both sounds were completely different reasons for Bernard it was the fact each time he shouted his attack it became more powerful than before and for the demon beast.
Not only was it knocked back but her claws had started to crack with little black blood dripping from them. When she saw this she almost went crazy, but neither she nor Bernard was willing to give up.
