NovelEnglish“How can you still be alive?” Terra shouted out.
“Heh, you think I’d seek out silvthril and malacrum weapons if I’d be vulnerable to them?” He sneered, his skin hissing like it was burning. “Then again… I didn’t expect that Death Strike. To think you would use a death curse on me. That’s a very high-level skill. It seems you have more secrets up your sleeves. When I win, I will make you all my slaves and learn all of your secrets!”
“Death curse? S-so you’re dying?”
“Hehe… true… eh…” He grabbed his stomach for a second and then righted himself.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe black burning seemed to resonate from where Deedee had struck. It had grown to cover most of his chest and reach his neck, but there it had stopped. It seemed to undulate like it was being healed as quickly as it was progressing. He looked to be in a lot of pain. We all started to feel some hope. That’s when he exploded into motion once again. His target was extremely obvious. He was going for Miki. If he succeeded in killing her, there is no saying where his soul would go. He’d be able to resurrect himself again, even with the dungeon covering him.
“You won’t!” Salicia attacked.
He caught her sword with the palm of his hand. It caught in, but he headbutted her. Then spun her over. He took the sword from her hand and then slammed it into her abdomen. She let out a cry as she was pinned to the ground.
“Back off!” Carmine bashed her shield into him, preventing him from doing a killing blow on her sister.
He slugged her shield so hard his hand dislocated. Her shield cracked and then exploded. She stumbled back over a black goo that had appeared under her. Tendrils shot out and grabbed her. She tried to wrestle them, but they quickly bound her. With her heavy armor, she couldn’t fight them off as they dragged her down. The Demon Lord Aberis had already moved on.
“Deek…” Deedee called to me.
She was on her feet with healing, but her expression was gaunt and it was clear her body couldn’t handle much more. She had a look in her eye. I gave a slight nod. I began casting a spell. She tossed me the sword before turning to Aberis. As for her, she attacked Aberis, but she had no weapon on her at all.
“I’ll enjoy eating your soul!” Aberis grabbed Deedee by the neck as she raced at him and picked her up.
He began to use Absorb on her, sucking up her life force. At this point, he had stopped holding back. He was no longer trying to protect his body. We had reached the end. It was do or die. As for him, he was going to kill Miki no matter what it took. As for Deedee, she was just an appetizer.
“I’m going to torture them all,” Aberis whispered in Deedee’s ear.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA small smile formed on Deedee’s face. It was only at that moment that Aberis, in his rage, had realized she had run at him with no attack and no weapon.
“Self-destruct,” She yelled.
“No!”
He tried to throw her, but just at that moment, Terra in her golem wrapped her arms around them both, holding them together. There was an explosion. Deedee’s final attack was a sacrifice. She burned her life to destroy him. It’d cause damage to her soul and it obliterated her body. This kind of attack permanently weakened someone.
Even if she could be resurrected, she’d never be as strong as she once was. It was that kind of attack. It wasn’t even at a level of regaining experience. She had burned away a piece of herself, and that power would never return. Her levels wouldn’t drop, but her status would. From then on, Deek would be much stronger than her. She had sacrificed that edge.
As the blast which shook the battlefield cleared. Terra had been thrown back. Her armor fell away in pieces, but the girl herself managed to stumble out, still alive. Terra’s defensive ability couldn’t be ignored. Deedee was no longer there. Aberis was gone as well.
I let out a breath of relief as I finished my task. Then, a hand erupted from the ground. Aberis climbed out of the dirt. His hair had been burnt off, and he looked like a skeleton, with most of his flesh desiccated or withered. As soon as he ripped free of the earth he had buried himself in, he began to stumble toward Miki.
“He-he’s still alive!” Miki cried out.
The battle wasn’t over.
