608 Arbitrary Criss-Crossing 4

These huge clear eyes swooped down from the sky and flew toward the Dream Watcher King.

"No!"

Although the Dream Watcher King dispelled some of the Tricolor Fairies away in his testy attacks, an even greater number of Tricolor Fairies fluttered their wings and slammed into the Dream Watcher King's body.

And from these wings, Grimm felt a pure bliss of strength.

Fear toward nightmares derived from the emotional instincts of humans as they believed that invincible, horrifying and scary creatures exist, giving room for the Horrifying Creatures of the Nightmare World to live.

As for the desire humans had toward the fairytale world, they were only possessed by a pair of uncorrupted and clear eyes in a child during childhood.

At that period of time, everyday was filled with happiness, not having a single worry in the world and believing that even though dark evil monsters existed in the world, they would be protected by the bright fairy tales that were told. They believed that they would experience a blissful and colorful life like the protagonists of the world, under the company and protection of their moms and dads.

It was exactly because these children believed in the Tooth Fairy that the horrors of the Nightmare World had slightly dissipated. With that came the birth of the Tricolor Fairies that protected the Nightmare World of humans, thus the fairytale law came into existence.

The Dream Watcher King was riddled with gaping wounds by the Tricolor Fairies of the fairytale law. Moments later, a blur appeared on the Dream Watcher King's body as he completed a resp.a.w.n from his immortality.

Hmm?

This feeling...

Although all the creatures in the Nightmare World were existences of immortality yet it did not mean that they were limitless.

Even though death was avoidable when one was as strong as the Dreadlord, the great amount of Fright Energy collected to build the Dreadlord's strong body may be dispelled during death.

The weaker Horrifying Creatures in the Nightmare World might be repressed and bound by stronger nightmare creatures, which was a process equivalent to death.

Due to the fact that Grimm had the Lamp of Awakening with him and the Principle Will of the Sorcerers World, his body had solidified. The Dream Watcher King who had his special abilities could still see Grimm but the Tricolor Fairies were unable to. Therefore, they did not attack Grimm.

At that moment, Grimm could feel clearly that his body as a Horrifying Creature had absorbed a special energy.

This energy seemed like a part of the Fright Energy that was dispersed from the Dream Watcher King as he was attacked by the Tricolor Fairies and forced to resp.a.w.n.

"Ah! How dare you take away my power… how dare you..."

As the Fright Energy was being collected in Grimm's body, Grimm could feel his physique and strength growing at an unbelievable rate. It was almost an immediate effect, which did not conform to the laws of the Sorcerers World.

But this was a Spectral World after all!

The formation of the Nightmare World was due to the laws of dreams while the determining factor of the nightmare creature's strength was not flesh, energy, mental will, laws nor any other factors of the Endless World.

Right here, fright was the true source of strength for nightmare creatures.

"Perhaps, I've found another way to go back to the real world besides searching for Adjudication Staff Stigmata Sorcerer!"

A light of joy lit up in Grimm's eyes!

Although Grimm did not know exactly what that way was, but since that Nightmare Mist Dreadlord wanted to use Grimm's body to gain a rebirth, would that not mean that he knew the way to send Grimm back to the real world?

What if...

What if Grimm collected enough Fright Energy to make him a new Dreadlord in the Nightmare World? If he were to try to defeat the Nightmare Mist Dreadlord later on, would that not let him find the way to leave like he wanted?

This way might be a whimsical one, but it was one worth a shot!

When that time came, if Grimm did not succeed, at least he would become stronger. From that, he would be able to escape from the Dreadlord servants and have more chances to find Adjudication Staff Stigmata Sorcerer.

In a distance, as the Dream Watcher King continued to resp.a.w.n, his Fright Energy continued to dissipate. The number of Tricolor Fairies continued to decrease as well. Grimm did not dare to keep collecting the Dream Watcher King's Fright Energy as he turned back and ran toward a human village from his memory.

That place was even more protected by the Tricolor Fairies of the fairytale law, it could become Grimm's temporary safe haven.
