(C3)Saviour?

Running behind the trees, HuanYing find himself in a dire situation, his life expose to danger.

A blood red giant with two protruding horn at its head, and a long red tail, following behind him with a large tree trunk on its hand.

With every step it took, the land shook, the trees surrounding them provide no help as the giant just run through them like nothing.

The distance between the two gradually closed down as HuanYing find himself running out of stamina.

"This doesn't make any sense! Why can you transform?" Despite the exhaustion, HuanYing still had the energy to complain.

The giant answer him with a swing of its arm, flinging the tree trunk towards HuanYing position.

because of the noise it made, HuanYing turns around and find a tree trunk flying towards him, "Shit!!" He cursed out loud before immediately activating the last of the three skills he have with him.

"Shadowstep" He mutter before he disappeared, the tree trunk hitting nothing but the ground.

HuanYing materialized amidst the shadow cast by a nearby tree he had selected in a hurry. As he turned his gaze towards his former location, he couldn't help but gulp, witnessing the trail of destruction left behind by the thrown tree trunk.

The red giant immediately ran towards the location HuanYing was previously in, and was confused when it didn't see any corpse or body left behind.

It immediately destroy the surrounding trees, searching for HuanYing, only to failed as HuanYing was already running in the opposite direction.

""Hurry, hurry!" HuanYing urged himself as he sprinted through the bushes. Each passing second seemed to stretch into an eternity, his heart racing as he feared he will be discover if he remained in his spot for a moment longer.

Branches upon branches of tree kept on blocking HuanYing's vision and as he get past a tree-- his fears come true.

A blood red giant, standing before him, with a giant smirk on its face, "Ho-how?" HuanYing mutters in disbelief.

In an instant, HuanYing insticts kicks in and he took a step back, preparing to run away, however his intentions to escape were shattered as a collosal-like hand lunged at him with lightning speed, seizing his body with a tight grip.

"Ahh! Release me, fucker!" HuanYing felt every bone in his body being crushed, unable to prevent the curse from escaping his lips.

The giant merely responded with a sadistic smile as it effortlessly uprooted yet another tree.

HuanYing's eyes enlarged, seemingly understanding what the giant was planning to do.

And just as he expected, HuanYing's expectations became reality—the giant hurled him into the sky, a rush of wind against his skin as he soared.

Then, with a bone-jarring impact, the giant wielded the tree as if it were a baseball bat, sending HuanYing hurtling through the air.

However things didn't end there as the giants immediately propelled itself into the air with an astonishingly high leap and appeared beside the falling HuanYing, like he just teleported.

On the ground the giant previously stood in,a large foot print was left behind the earth surface. A testament to the sheer force he exerted with his jump.

And just beside it, A man suddenly comes down from the sky at lightning speed, burrowing deep onto the ground.

With all of his bones crushed and broken, HuanYing survived with a sliver of health remaining, all thanks to his quick reaction where he drink a health potion when he was sent flying, providing him with not only a huge chunk of health but also a healing over time effect.

The Giant soon landed from the sky while carrying large momentum with him, the ground trembles in response, Dust and dirt were sent swirling into the air momentarily masking HuanYing current location.

With all the dust in the air, HuanYing was given enough time to drink yet another health potion.

However, Despite the fact that his health was back at the top again, there's still no way for him to defeat or run away from the giant and once the dust settle, he would then die.

HuanYing contemplated every possible way to escape, but despair began filling him as he realized he couldn't find a solution.

The dust and dirt gradually settled around him until the giant's towering figure slowly became visible.

and Just as HuanYing felt like all hope was lost, an unknown figure suddenly covered the bright red sun.

Just a small figure floating in the sky, wearing a black robe and a large scythe in hand, it stand imposingly on to the air.

The Giant noticed the small figure and grew angry at being looked down. It immediately prepared itself to take a leap.

Boom!

The ground cracked beneath the giant as it launched itself into the air way above the small figure, It prepared to unleash a devastating blow upon its target, but just as it was about to strike, the giant abruptly halted before it exploded mid-air, its blood and bodily fragment raining from the sky, befitting the crimson hue'd underworld.

Shocks fills HuanYing, The unknown figure somehow managed to defeat the giant without even moving an inch, a feat that even those at the higher level couldn't match.

Silent spell casting? A super quick slash with the scythe? Some sort of Aura skill? Invisible attacks? HuanYing pondered about how did the figure killed the giant, yet all of them were just speculation he couldn't prove.

While lost in his thought, the small figure suddenly descend fron the sky "So it's you" A hoarse voice came from the hooded figure, as it landed, HuanYing realize that his saviour was wearing a mask and is considerably much smaller than him.

"Umm... I thank you for saving me but what do you mean by that?" HuanYing asked, however the figure only replied with a quick slash of its scythe.

"Eh?" HuanYing found himself falling to the ground, gazing at the sky above, with his vision slowly darkening and his consciousness fading.
