The Mans Decree Chapter 5218

“Do it! Fast!” Jared said. Sword in hand, dashed toward the bear, each stride striking sparks, every heartbeat measuring Flaxseed’s dwindling seconds.

The Blackshade Demon Bear saw the challenger return and erupted, paws the size of ox-carts swiping with world-ending fury. Jared weaved beneath the blows, streaks of silver sword energy nicking its flank, drawing its wrath away from Flaxseed.

The black-robed man arrived a breath later, hesitation flickering at the sight of the beast, then vanishing as joined the slaughter with merciless intent.

Jared now fought inside a lethal triangle, bear before him, assassin at his back, and each misstep promised shattered bones.

Calm as a stone in rapids, spun, parried, and sidestepped, his Dragonslayer Sword sketching bright lines that kept both foes from breaching the invisible wall around Flaxseed.

Behind that fragile perimeter, Flaxseed’s brush flew across talisman paper, lines of glowing ink coiling into ancient sigils as quickly as his shaking hands could birth them.

Jared poured every last drop of spiritual energy into the half-finished talisman. The world beyond  dissolved to a blur while beads of sweat gathered on his brow, slid down the bridge of his nose, and spattered onto the parchment.

Beyond his narrow focus, the drain on his core deepened until each fresh surge of power felt wrenched from bone and marrow.

Meanwhile, the Blackshade Demon Bear hammered at with growing ferocity, its black-robed handlers moving in murderous harmony. Thin cuts scored his arms and ribs-shallow wounds, yet sharp enough to steal precious speed.

“Flaxseed, how much longer?” Jared shouted, twisting aside just in time to let the bear’s claw crash through empty air. Pivoting on one heel, snapped his sword backward and forced a black-robed attacker to retreat.

“Almost there!” Flaxseed called back, his voice tight with concentration. The talisman in his hands had already taken shape, faint herbal fragrance curling from its glowing strokes.

With one final flourish sealed the last rune. Light burst outward, and a wave of cool, verdant scent rolled through the clearing.

“Done!” Flaxseed cried. He hurled the talisman into the depths ofthe forest. lt streaked away as a ribbon of emerald light, scattering its fresh aroma through the undergrowth like morning rain.

The Blackshade Demon Bear froze mid-lunge, nostrils flaring.

The red haze in its eyes dimmed, curiosity beating back fury. After a hesitant growl, it abandoned Jared entirely and thundered after the drifting scent

“Perfect!” Relief spilled from Jared in a single breath, but refused to lower his guard. The bear was gone, yet the black-robed killers still hunted close behind.

“Move!” Jared barked. He seized Flaxseed by the collar and raced deeper into the forest, dodging thorny trunks and hanging vines as shadows flickered at their backs.

Behind them the lead figure in black paused, torn between rage and caution.

A moment later, his decision snapped into place. “After them! Don’t let the prey slip away!”

They gave chase again, though wariness slowed their stride; no one wished to cross the bear’s new path.

Using that hesitation, Jared and Flaxseed plunged so far into the maze of trees that pursuit sounds faded. At last they collapsed beside a hidden mountain stream, lungs burning, clothes soaked through with sweat.

Cold water lapped over torn sleeves and open cuts, sending bright needles of pain through aching limbs.

“We finally lost them,” Jared gasped. He gulped several mouthfuls of the icy water, the chill snapping his senses awake. “Blackshade Demon Palace hounds a man like his shadow. Miserable lot…”

Flaxseed leaned against a slab of rock, circulating energy to refill his drained reserves. “If they dared follow us out here, Lunaria has torn every scrap of diplomacy to shreds. From now on, we’re targets for Blackshade Demon Palace, Blackwind Stronghold, and every faction that helped massacre my clan.”
