As Skraal continued to wield his Ghost Origin, the tides of battle began to subtly shift.
The battlefield echoed with haunting howls and distorted screeches, not from the dead but from the Thousand Ears, those strange, sound-based origin creatures now relentlessly attacking him.
Yet with every passing second, every maneuver they executed, Skraal was learning.
"A battle against beasts that uses "Sound" as their origin is really interesting."
"Origin Beasts and Creatures are entirely different than magical creatures."
Skraal thought.
Though chaotic at first glance, the Thousand Ears weren't attacking randomly.
Skraal recognized the method behind their madness.
Each time he blocked or dodged, they adjusted.
"Smart creatures..."
Individually, their power was laughably weak.
Their origin signatures barely registered compared to what he was used to.
But there was a disconcerting intelligence in their coordination.
