Standing before Lilith was Lenoir's twin, Elaine, and unlike her sister, who dressed rather provokingly, Elaine was reserved, but this doesn't mean she was an angel; far from that, she was the most ruthless of the two.
''Princess kindly follow me back his highness wished greatly to see you,'' Elaine said; she tried to sound sincere but judging from her smile, it was ridicule instead of trying to make Lilith voluntarily go back, the truth was that she didn't care, her mission was to stop Lilith until someone comes.
Lilith didn't say a word; she undid her disguise, and immediately her real appearance was shown, her beauty couldn't be concealed; for a moment, the dark forest seemed to have gained life; it wasn't monochrome anymore. However, while this was happening, a chill crawled into Elaine's spine, those purple eyes, no hint of emotions could be seen in them, the temperature around plummeted, and unconsciously Elaine took a step back; she doubted she would ever be able to last longer until reinforcement arrive.
At that moment, a light coming from Lenoir's direction struck Elaine in the chest, and she grunted.
''Guh! Damn it; I will kill you all.'' Elaine roared, her strength skyrocketed, from initial Rank 10 to early Rank 12; all of this was thanks to her sister's last gift. Elaine had gotten stronger, but at the cost of losing her only remaining family member, her dear sister, the pain was so intense that she instantly forgot her goal.
''Die!! Thousand bugs!" Elaine bellowed, and from her body, a thousand bugs shot out.
Buzz! Buzz!
The weakest was Rank 2, while the strongest Rank 7, those bugs tried to swarm on Lilith from all sides.
However, Lilith calmly moved; she unsheathed her sword and pointed it at the sky, then white lightning split apart the air. All species with insect properties were weak to 'fire.' Lightning, with its destructiveness, was like a fire, so instantly the bugs stopped in their track; Elaine was shocked; she hadn't expected Lilith to be able to unleash this type of lightning, people might have mistaken White lightning to be the gentle type, but it was the case, among the different types of lightning, White lightning rank is pretty high.
Zi~ Zi~
Like an enraged beast, white lightning danced in the sky and moved at breakneck speed, passing through the swarm of bugs, and the result, they were annihilated, burnt to a cinder.
Lilith blinked to reappear before Elaine; she raised the sword and swung down; the speed of the sword was extremely fast, almost unstoppable, and yet Elaine calmly stopped it; her fingernails and forearms were tinged with a dark light.
Using her long and poisoned fingernails, Elaine blocked Lilith's sword. However, that didn't mean she could prevent all damage.
"Kuh!"
Sparks flew, and Elaine's body was pushed back a few steps. It would be strange if this didn't happen as Lilith was stronger than her.
Suddenly, from Elaine's fingernails, poison was shot, everything happened too fast, normally Lilith should have been caught off guard, but before the poison could touch her, white lightning appeared and burnt some, when what was left of the poison touched the ground it melted.
''Sigh! As expected of the princess, you didn't even sweat, but this is not the end; I shall make you pay.'' Elaine declared before her body shrunk; she blurred to reappear twenty meters away from Lilith; seeing this, Lilith frowned; she knew she must let this woman accomplish what she was trying to do; therefore, lightning manifested under Lilith's feet, and she mumbled.
[Ghost Steps]
Almost as if she had teleported, she appeared behind Elaine with her black scythe; she tried to cut the latter in two; however, something astonishing happened instead of cutting through Elaine's figure, Lilith's scythe struck empty air, and Elaine appeared twenty meters away again. What happened what not complicated before the scythe descended. Elaine transformed thousands of bugs that flew away.
''Fufufu! You are a dead princess. Calamity Queen.''
Elaine announced, and immediately the sound of thousands of bugs flying toward them could be heard; even bugs swarmed the ground coming toward Elaine as if she was their queen, the scene of thousands of bugs swarming the forest scared most of the most while the area where the two stood started shaking, leaves disappeared from the trees, some died, the sky turned darker.
Even Lilith, whose expression didn't change since the beginning, couldn't help but frown in disgust; women naturally dislike bugs; it was no wonder after seeing so many bugs, she feels repulsed.
Bugs crawled on Elaine's body increased her height; she transformed into a bug lady. It was a body with beautiful curves and solid
muscles. She had dragonfly-like wings and a tail that resembled a scorpion. She was covered in an
Insect's shell apart from the face, but she looked more like a bipedal creature than an insect.
Swoosh!
With a speed not even Lilith could achieve using the lightning element, the now transformed Elaine, the Calamity Queen, appeared behind Lilith and slashed at her with her deadly claw.
Kiin!
At the last moment, Lilith managed to position her black scythe behind her back to block the claw; she was sent flying. Somehow, Elaine's strength was increased yet again; it must be after ingesting thousands of bugs.
Lilith nimbly maneuvered her body before crashing against a tree; however, before she could rest Elaine as the Calamity Queen was already behind her, Lilith couldn't even feel her presence.
''Die"
Boom!
Elaine thought she had managed to hammer Lilith to the ground, but to her astonishment, one of her arms was missing; it was this arm which fell on the ground producing such a sound as it was too heavy.
The figure of Lilith could be seen standing not too far from the still surprised Elaine, dark mist surrounded Lilith's body, it was giving an extremely eerie feeling, just by staring at this mist Elaine was assaulted by intense fear, her eyes started bleeding, she had forgotten about the feeling of pain after her arm was sliced off, there was only one thing inside her mind which was to flee from here immediately.
''D-Don't come any clos-ser!"
