Chapter 222: Chapter 222
“Go away!” the red-haired woman blindly swung her maroon-coloured boomerang, causing Long to back away. Before long, the red-haired woman’s vision returned, but another attack was coming toward her. The blue-haired female soldier launched two icicles at the red-haired woman. The red-haired woman swung her maroon-coloured boomerang at the two icicles, destroying them mid-air. “These little spells are getting annoying by the second”, the red-haired woman scoffed. “I don’t think you have any time looking for that distraction”, Long once again rushed at the red-haired woman. Long locked his red staff with the red-haired woman’s maroon-coloured boomerang, “Now, attack her at the same time!” he shouted.
After that, the armoured woman charged toward the red-haired woman with her mana infused sword. “No, you don’t”, the red-haired woman tried prying away the maroon-coloured boomerang from Long’s red staff, but Long skillfully stopped the red-haired woman. “If I can’t use my weapon, I’ll just use my limbs”, the red-haired woman raised her leg, but before she managed to kick the armoured woman away, the ground beneath her grabbed her leg. “You’re not moving”, the blue-haired female soldier said. After that, the armoured woman swiped the base of her sword twice, creating red-coloured lightning around it. “Die!” the armoured woman stabbed her sword through the red-haired woman’s torso.
“Guh”, the red-haired woman spat a mouthful of blood. “You!” she glared at the armoured woman with hatred before she felt another stinging pain in her stomach. “How’s this for weak!” Sydney quipped with her blade deep inside the red-haired woman’s innards. The red-haired woman’s eyes widened in surprise as Meng Huo slowly approached her. “This time, you are dead, Zhu Rong”, Meng Huo said while pulling his arm. Meng Huo’s hand went through the red-haired woman’s chest with a single powerful thrust, making the red-haired woman cough another mouthful of blood. Meng Huo glared hatefully at the red-haired woman before pulling out his hand from her chest.
“Now, die permanently and never come back”, Meng Huo said as the armoured woman and Sydney pulled out their weapons at the same time. Blood spurted from the red-haired woman’s wound. “I guess I had this coming”, the red-haired woman smiled wryly as she slumped to her knees. “Die by bleeding out, bitch”, Meng Huo grabbed the red-haired woman’s head, slamming her to the ground. After that, Meng Huo, Sydney, the armoured woman, the blue-haired female soldier and Long gathered around the still meditated Eru. “Is it done?” Sydney asked. “It should be”, the armoured woman slightly lowered her head. “Hmm, I don’t feel like victory”, Sydney grumbled.
“Most battles are like that”, the blue-haired female soldier commented. “So now, since we defeated that monster of a woman, what’s the plan?” Sydney asked. However, before any of the people from the group managed to answer, Eru suddenly opened his eyes. “Oh, teacher Eru, you’ve woken—” before Sydney finished her sentence, Eru suddenly moved behind her with his black sword raised. Sydney, Long, Meng Huo, the armoured woman and the blue-haired female soldier all looked behind at the same time with horror on their faces. “What’s wrong, boys and girls? You all looked like you’ve seen a ghost?” the red-haired woman said with a twisted grin on her face.
“You’re not dead?” Sydney exclaimed. “Me, dead? A weak attack like that will never kill me”, the red-haired woman replied with a wide grin. “Really?” Eru smirked, “Then how come your injuries healed slowly now?” he stated while pushing the red-haired woman away. “Listen up, people”, Long said, gripping his red staff tight, “All our attacks work against that woman. We just need to continue injuring her until her regenerative ability cannot keep up.” The red-haired woman had a nasty smile on her face, “So what? If I want to, I could kill all of you guys in an instant. I was merely toying with all of you earlier. Now, you will face my full strength.” After saying that, the red-haired woman’s crimson coloured aura flared up, and her body, which was beginning to lose its red lustre, began to redden even more.
“Aah!” the red-haired woman let out a battle cry as her crimson coloured aura spiralled in the air. “Urgh”, the armoured woman was slightly pushed back by the pressure emitted by the red-haired woman, “What power”, she muttered softly. “Don’t be discouraged”, Meng Huo stood his ground, “Zhu Rong is on her last leg. We need to push a little bit more.” Eru flared up his raven-coloured aura, “I agree. Just a little more, and we could kill that monstrous woman once and for all. Everyone, on my lead.” After that, Eru leapt forward with his black sword held high. “I’m right behind you, brother Eru” Long flapped his red-coloured wings, flying closely behind Eru.
“You think you all can kill me?” the red-haired woman furrowed her eyebrows. “Then, come on and try”, she shouted as her crimson-coloured aura exploded. Right after that, the red-haired woman’s red body that was beginning to fade was restored, and her power rose to greater heights. “Challenge accepted”, Eru brandished his black sword at the red-haired woman. The red-haired woman raised her hand, summoning her maroon-coloured boomerang; she managed to block Eru’s attack in time. “What’s the matter, kid? You’ve gotten weaker?” the red-haired woman commented. After that, the red-haired woman parried Eru’s black sword to the side and just as she was about to counterattack, Long had already arrived right before her.
“Die, monster!” Long swung his red staff downwards. The red-haired woman blocked Long’s horizontal attack, “Useless”, the red-haired woman said before kicking Long on his chest. Right after that, Meng Huo appeared all of a sudden beside the red-haired woman. “Hah”, Meng Huo’s leg rose up, aiming for the red-haired woman’s head. The red-haired woman raised her hand above her ear, blocking Meng Huo’s kick, “And you, old man, are too predictable.” After that, the red-haired woman grabbed Meng Huo’s leg, throwing him away towards a nearby wall. “Anyone else?” the red-haired woman roared, but soon two icicles were shot straight at her chest.
“Tch, these pointless things again”, the red-haired woman swung her maroon-coloured boomerang, directly destroying the two icicles. “Annoying” right after that, the red-haired woman threw her maroon-coloured boomerang at the blue-haired female soldier. “Amy, watch out!” the armoured woman that was about to rush in towards the red-haired woman turned back and threw herself in the maroon-coloured boomerang trajectory. With a clang, the armoured woman’s mana infused sword clashed with the red-haired woman’s maroon-coloured boomerang. The red-haired woman grinned, “What a brave one you are. Unfortunately, bravery is often not enough.”
Then, the red-haired woman waved her hand, manoeuvering the maroon-coloured boomerang away from the armoured woman and towards the blue-haired female soldier. “Damn it! Amy, run away!” the armoured woman tried to chase after the maroon-coloured boomerang. However, the maroon-coloured boomerang proved too fast for the armoured woman to catch up to. As the maroon-coloured boomerang etched closer to the blue-haired female soldier, Eru threw his black sword, changing the trajectory of the maroon-coloured boomerang as it slightly missed the blue-haired female soldier. “Phew, that was close”, the blue-haired female soldier heaved a sigh of relief, “Thanks.”
Eru nodded slightly before rushing back towards the red-haired woman. “Eruken!” Eru flared up his raven-coloured aura, summoning his black sword back into his hand; he delivered a barrage of attacks toward the red-haired woman. The red-haired woman also raised her hand, summoning back her maroon-coloured boomerang and proceeded to engage Eru in close-quarter combat. Soon after, Long joined Eru in engaging the red-haired woman, making the fight two on one. But, it did not just stop there. Meng Huo joined in the fight, and the blue-haired female soldier was pinging projectiles toward the red-haired woman.
The red-haired woman had a huge grin on her face, “Hahaha. This is it, this is the life. More, I want more!” she roared. “Don’t let her throw the boomerang!” Meng Huo barked, “Keep her close.” The armoured woman nodded, “Right”, she said before closing into the red-haired woman after Long hit the red-haired woman on her stomach. “Lightning, ice”, the armoured woman swiped the base of her sword with two of her fingers. After that, the armoured woman swung her mana infused sword at the red-haired woman. The red-haired woman was able to block the armoured woman’s mana infused sword with her hand. “Got you”, the armoured woman smirked.
“Hm?” the red-haired woman’s eyes widened in surprise as her hand started to freeze. Not only that, as the ice started to creep out on her hand, she began to feel paralysis over her whole body. “Argh”, the red-haired woman grunted, “I can’t move, you bitch!” The armoured woman let out a mocking smirk, “Well, that’s the plan. Now, finish it!” she shouted. Right after that, Long smacked the red-haired woman on her chest, followed up by Meng Huo kicking the red-haired woman towards the air. After that, Sydney jumped up high before smacking the red-haired woman down to the ground. “Argh!” the red-haired woman screamed in pain as the blue-haired female soldier cast a double spell of fireball and a wind blade, combining to make a fire blade.
The blue-haired female soldier’s spells hit the red-haired woman clean on her chest, but thanks to the durability of the red-haired woman’s Beast God body, it did not cut the red-haired woman in half. But, all of this gave Eru enough time to gather up his raven-coloured aura and Fate Energy for one last attack. Eru’s appearance changed, turning into his golden, raven, draconic transformation. “This is the end. Die!” Eru roared before swinging his black sword. A huge raven-coloured horizontal energy blade mixed with a golden hue came out from Eru’s black sword, encroaching fast at the red-haired woman.
