The Bored Immortal

"Growl!" Viktor made a loud growl as he rushed towards where the three were standing, much to their confusion.

Oben could see that for some reason, Viktor wasn't in his right mind and took a hard decision within a split second to stop what he was doing and used his staff to quickly move himself and the two women out of Viktor's way.

Nyissa and Sae weren't surprised that Oben moved them, but now they got worried, thinking that Earth was doomed since things had already gotten worse.

However, to their surprise, Viktor was still charging towards the dark crimson energy sphere, making them realize that he was after the sphere and not them.

Viktor was able to sense this energy sphere from outside, and he just wanted to destroy it since this energy seemed to be in sync with Bamir's energy, which he had just destroyed. All he wanted was to destroy anything related to him.

The dark crimson spinning sphere had almost turned black, but Viktor suddenly used his large paws to cover it with his own hand and began to compress it with his own bare hands.

Nyissa was astonished by what she was seeing, "Is he...."

"He is trying to destroy it…" Sae said with a relieved expression.

"Maybe not everything is lost," Oben said in a weak voice as the white cracks began to spread over even more. The only reason Oben was still living was that he was trying his best to keep his soul together. But he knew he couldn't do it forever.

"GROWL!" Viktor let out a thunderous angry growl as his hands began to burn, but an icy layer began to cover his skin and immediately healed his scalded injuries.

He applied even more strength as he tried to bring his hands together.

The other three had their brows raised when they saw the dark energy sphere getting smaller and losing energy as it continued to spin slower and slower.

It continued to become small till it became as small as a pebble and turned white.

*BOOM!*

Suddenly a powerful shockwave of energy emanated from in between Viktor's hands, making Oben and the two women slide back though Viktor continued to remain in his place.

However, the three were relieved when they saw that the energy sphere had disappeared after Viktor opened his hands.

"He did it!" Nyissa happily said, feeling as if a heavyweight was lifted from her chest.

"He really is on a different level," Sae said with a proud smile.

"He still isn't himself. I think there is a problem with his soul…" Oben said with knitted brows as he saw Viktor slowly turning his towards their direction with a not-so-friendly glare.

However, he didn't charge towards them but simply continued to stare at them like a wild animal as if he was trying to see whether they were a threat or not.

Nyissa and Oben stood still like statues since they didn't want to give a reason for Viktor to show hostility.

But Sae suddenly walked forward, much to the worry of the other two though they didn't stop her since they felt that she probably knew what she was doing.

"Grrrr…" Viktor narrowed his eyes as he flexed his claws, seeing Sae approach him.

"It's alright...I don't want to harm you…" Sae said in a soothing voice that could make one feel as if their entire body relaxed.

Viktor blinked his eyes as if in confusion, but suddenly he decreased his own height till he was above two meters tall since the person that was approaching him was too small compared to his original size.

It was as if he was curious to know more about the woman that was approaching him.

Sae smiled, seeing that Viktor wasn't planning to be hostile with her, and as she stood before him, she slowly raised her hand and cupped a hand to his face as she gently stroked his beautiful silver fur that was softer than she imagined.

"Grandaunt is really amazing...She approached him without making him angry…" Nyissa said with gleaming eyes, feeling that her grandaunt was just as amazing as her grandfather.

"She loves him more than anything…so even if Viktor may not be conscious of himself, his soul would still be familiar with her. In fact, she regrets doing what she did since she didn't get to spend a long time with him. She believes that she could have solved the misunderstandings between him and me if she had tried. But I only learned the truth after my death, so even if she tried to convince me that Viktor was not a truly evil person, I wouldn't have been convinced because of how much I thirsted for revenge. I even destroyed my own life in pursuit of it…" Oben said with a tinge of regret in his tone.

Nyissa's eyes softened hearing her grandfather's words and again felt sad seeing the white cracks over his skin, knowing that his time was coming to an end soon.

Viktor's expression finally relaxed as he felt her touch was soothing, making him look at her with a different gaze.

"Viktor...I know you are still there...so don't worry...I will bring you back…" Sae said as a faint light began to shine from her hand.

Viktor simply continued to stare at her with his mystical glowing blue eyes, not understanding what she had just said.

But suddenly, he felt drowsy and felt as if his body and mind were sinking into some other place.

"It's alright...you will wake up soon...as yourself…" Sae said as she cupped his face.

Viktor's vision became blurry, and his posture slumped. And within a moment, his eyes completely closed as he suddenly transformed into his human self before falling over Sae, who caught him gently as she rested his head over her shoulder.

Sae gently laid him down on the floor. However, Viktor suddenly woke up, only to see that he was in a totally different place, a forest to be exact, which made him quite confused.

And when he realized that he had no control over his body and saw how his body, which looked quite different, was moving on its own, plucking flowers, he shouted inwardly in a puzzled tone, "I am that boy again? What the hell is going on??"
