Unexpected gains (3)

Faint roars of beasts were now getting louder and more frequent. The beasts that were eyeing this dying bird beast were fast on their paces.

Loudness of roars increased everytime it sounded and it indicated that they were getting nearer to where I was or rather where the bird beast was.

I was getting impatient with every roar. I had to take a decision and it should be fast. Without much thought, I was ready to land the final blow and send the bird beast on its way to afterlife.

Killing the bird was still not a choice for me but there was no other option. Being caught up between the fight for the bird beast would be devastating to me. I could not even run away from here. Thus killing the bird beast was the only option left for me.

I took a final glance at the bird beast, closed my eyes and extended my branches towards the bird beast. I wanted to pierce the brain of the bird beast and give it a quick death.

I wanted to find openings that could lead me to its brain but the feathers on it were tough and I could not pierce it with my miniscule strength.

After searching for a while and failing to find anything. I sent my branches towards its eyes. Even piercing its eyes were difficult but the injuries present there made it easier.

I swiftly extended my branches and stabbed something. It was mushy with jelly like texture.

The possibility of the mushy thing being the bird beast's brain was high as the bird beast that just flinched a little when I pierced its eyes, convulsed violently as I stabbed the mushy thing.

Finally after some time and struggle, I was able to stab through its head and destroying its brain.

Convulsing of the bird beast also stopped and with a final tweak, the half dead bird beast that was accompanying me for the past few hours finally vanished.

The bird beast that was infront of turned into small light particles. The sheer amount of light particles present here was shocking to me. The body of killer mosquito also had turned into light particle but it was just one light particle and now there were tens of thousands of such light particles.

The light particles started floating toward me. As it entered my body, mechanical voice started going crazy. At first little amount of light particles made mechanical voice ring but as the light particles disappeared, amount of notifications from mechanical voice also decreased.

Nonethless, I benefited the most from this encounter. The lights were disappearing at a rapid pace. I wanted to check what the mechanical voice had said but waited for the last bit of light particles to be absorbed.

After the last light particle floated towards me and disappeared, I hurriedly checked the notifications from the system.
