Holy Beast Saintess 51 The Old Pass On

Perhaps if she came a moment later a young talent may have lost his life, she could also sense a faint flickering life force within the old tigers body.

She moved quickly to his side and sat by him placing her hooves onto his body, her hoof radiated a bright white glow which entered into the old tigers body.

The old tigers pale face gained a bit of colour and his wounds began to slowly close up.

Opening his eyes full of shock he looked upon the figure which had a look of deep concentration and let out a soft voice. "Thank you."

"No need for thanks, this is all I can do for you. You do not have much time left so use it as you see fit." Shadow nodded towards him and spoke in a neither arrogant nor servile manner.

He gazed upon the several beasts and the surviving family members including his son and his mate and their children, his eyes became misty as his body began to tremble.

He let out a large grin and bowed his head towards Shadow as he lay on the ground before everyone. "Thank you for saving their lives! If there is anything I can do mention it."

"We had already made a bet and I intend to collect on it but you do not have to worry about their safety. After today the tiger clan will be dismissed and enter into my territory. If they stay here they will only face attacks from other beast clans now that they have lost so many of their strongest fighters." Shadow tried her best to rea.s.sure the old tiger that her plans were in his clans best interests.

The old tiger thought for a while before nodding his head. "Indeed I did lose but please promise me to treat my clan members fairly and do not mistreat them."

"You do not have to worry about that, I am not going to say that they won't encounter danger in the future but if they work hard they will see many new sights and experience lots of things. Some may die in the process but I a.s.sure you they will grow strong and brave facing whatever challenges they face in the future." Shadow did not wish to sugarcoat the truth in front of the old tiger so she spoke honestly.

The tiger clan had become so weak right now, what they needed was a place to strengthen themselves and she offered that but in the future there may be a lot of dangerous encounters and lives may be lost.

The old tiger let out a light sigh and understood what she meant.

He looked upon his clan members and gave his final order. "After everything is done here please leave with those who saved you today. The tiger clan is now disbanded and you will be part of a new clan, times may be tough in the future but I ask you all to face whatever you encounter with a brave spirit that does not disgrace our tiger clans pride. These are my final orders!"

The old tiger had a comforting smile on his face and closed his eyes and relaxed his body. "Take care of them…."

His final sentence became quieter after every word until silence filled the surroundings.

Cries of the tiger clan broke the silence as tears fell from their eyes.

In their eyes their hero of wors.h.i.+p had finally pa.s.sed on and his figure was as glorious as ever.

His peaceful death surrounded by his family and allies was a sight which was branded into their hearts forever and they would never forget his final words.

Not only did Shadow give them a few more moments with the old tiger before his death but let him die in one piece rather than dying covered in wounds.

It showed respect towards the old tigers final moments and their clan which further increased their loyalty towards going with Shadow in the future.

"Let me go!" The old wolf screamed at the lynx on top of his body.

Shadow was drawn towards his voice and walked over to him.

In her eyes contained a chilling and piercing stare which shot towards his body which could not help but s.h.i.+ver. "Do not think anyone will be coming to save you, your clan leader has already been dealt with. The other wolf groups are dead, n.o.body is coming and as of today the wolf and tiger clans will disappear from the world."

"W..what do you mean?!" The old wolf was feeling regretful as he began to figure out the meaning behind the words.

"You were ruthless enough to hunt down and kill every last male and female of the tiger clan. It did not matter if they were young, elderly or even newborns you were happy to slaughter them all. So tell me why should I spare any of your clan? If word ever got out what happened today towards the young of your clan one day and they came seeking revenge on me or those involved then how could I forgive myself if I was too soft on you all and it harmed others." She looked down at the old wolf as if he was an idiot. "It's better to weed by the roots of the trouble than to leave potential dangers lurking don't you think so?"

"No… Please. Please spare them! They are innocent!" The old wolf pleaded in a desperate voice as he tried to move his body towards Shadow but it was of no use.

Shadow turned a deaf ear towards his pleas as she walked away from him and her voice sounded out. "Innocent? Sure there may be a couple of them who are innocent but they will soon be influenced by those left in your clan who have learned from your clans ugly behaviour. Soon they will learn from their elders to be vicious and ruthless towards not only their enemies but their own clan members."

"You are only capable of being deceitful and vicious, even now as you plead for your clan members lives you still look towards me with the intent to kill. Although you tried to hide it do you think I would not notice? Kill him."

A blur appeared before the old wolfs eyes as the two front paws wrapped around his neck and dug their nails into his throat and applied a lot of pressure.

A ripping sound followed as his throat had its flesh torn off, a look of shock and unwillingness was on his face.

He wanted vengeance but he was powerless to do a thing about it, he wished his clan members that were still alive could avenge him!

However his hope had been crushed by Shadows words…

n.o.body could avenge him if they were dead!

He could only curse the tiger clan and this group of beasts from his grave.

The old tigers death was met with tears of mourning and a sense of loss coupled with a burning desire for the clan to not let his efforts be in vain.

The old wolfs death was the opposite as n.o.body was there to mourn him, the surrounding beasts looked down upon his dead body with hate and disgust.
