Hearing the beast’s words, Zamira lowers her sword while a surprised look appears on her face.
“What are you talking about? I came here alone.” Zamira says in a threatening voice, as she tries to intimidate the beast.
“What would I gain by telling you a lie? One of my babies was killed in a very amusing way, which is something I have never seen before. Even though this person is trying very hard to conceal his aura, I can still feel it.” The beast says, showing its menacing set of teeth again.
“To top it all off, this person seems stronger than you. Who could it be? I don’t even mind dying by his sword.” The beast adds with a wide grin while moving backwards.
Hearing the beast’s words, veins can be seen popping out of Zamira’s face. One can tell that she is extremely infuriated.
“So, what are you trying to say now? So what, if someone is here with me inside this cave? I’ll just have to deal with the person when I am done with you.” Zamira says as her sword begins to glow.
“You are as arrogant as I’ve heard. You underestimate and look down on your opponent. You don’t deserve to have me die by your sword, and even if you kill me, you are still going to die either way.” The beast replies while a white thick rope shoots towards Zamira.
WHOOSH!
Zamira cuts the white rope before it can even touch her armour.
“Die!” Zamira bellows as she makes very quick slashes in the air, creating fine lines of red aura by infusing her blood aura into her sword. The red lines have a tinge of purple colour in them which is the energy from the sword.
Before the beast can realise what Zamira has done, the red lines started flying towards it.
ROAR!!
The beast bellows as if sensing the danger of the blood aura. The purple energy in the aura is the energy from the beast gear that Zamira is wielding. This alone is a big weakness to the beast.
WAHM!!
Suddenly a large wall of thick cobwebs appear in front of the spider queen as she tries to shield herself from Zamira’s attack.
However, Zamira’s blood aura easily cuts through the web like tofu. The spider queen isn’t also giving up, as she keeps creating more webs, thereby decreasing the potency of the blood slashes.
Seeing that the potency of the blood slashes has been decreased drastically by her cobwebs, the spider queen grabs the blood slashes with her bare claws, cancelling them out.
Once the blood slashes were cancelled, smoke could be seen rising from the beast’s claws which were covered with many scorch marks. However, there was no single damage done to the spider queen.
Seeing her attack stopped by the spider queen, Zamira raises her sword again. However, instead of attacking, she lowers it to her shoulder pad and gives a bright smile.
“That was epic, I think I should play with you a little more before killing you. I would have liked to take you as my pet, but you are quite an ugly one.” Zamira says with a smile while oozing extreme arrogance.
After hearing Zamira’s haughty comment, the spider queen doesn’t know how to react. Throughout her entire existence, she has never felt this much anger.
‘This person… She’s very dangerous. That man is also dangerous, I stand almost no chance. I hope Plutad will be done soon. I will try my best to buy time until everything is complete, even if it costs me my life. No, I don’t want to die here, I promised him that I will stay alive. I’m not a pushover either, after all, I am not an ordinary demigod beast.’ The spider queen thinks inwardly before putting on a smile even though she still looks ugly despite smiling.
“Aren’t you ashamed? That weapon in your hands is made from the crystals you extracted from my kind. Why can’t you all just let us live in peace? You people hunt us down no matter how intelligent we are, just because you want our crystals. Yet, the beastkins are roaming around freely.” The spider queen says, looking very pained and angry.
“Ohhh.” Zamira lets out a voice with her eyebrows raised.
“In case you didn’t know, I am the epitome of shamelessness, my shamelessness has no bounds. It’s just quite pathetic that you’re comparing yourselves to Beastkins. You guys were never intelligent in the first place. What you all do is consume each other’s crystals and evolve, it was like a dog-eat-dog system.
ƥαṇdα- ηθνε|·ƈθm
“W-What…. D-Do you mean?” The spider queen stammers upon hearing Zamira’s words. The truth is quite bitter.
Right now, Zamira’s hair is floating in a straight-like manner while her body is completely covered in a red aura. It’s also as if the space around her is distorting due to the energy emanating from her.
Sensing Zamira’s energy, the spider queen knows what she is done for. But her goal of buying time has successfully been achieved, and she’s willing to fight to the death.
“I’m not a pushover either. I’ll show you the power of a demigod beast.” The spider queen says, as a translucent light begins to radiate from her body.
“I have killed demigod beasts like you and you’re no exception, you lowly beast .” Zamira says, pointing the tip of her sword at the beast. This is a habit of hers. Toying with her opponent before finishing them off.
Meanwhile….
**********
“What is this? Such a monstrous aura filled with evil intent. I guess I now understand what mom was talking about. However, this evil intent isn’t directed at hurting people or anything like that. So, what exactly is it directed at, the beast?” I mutter to myself while gritting my teeth.
I am currently standing a few meters away from where the fight is happening. Since I can’t use either my Ki or vampire aura to shield myself, I am only left to use mom’s gravity ability to lessen the pressure coming from both sides. Looking at the fight between the two, the demigod beast stands no chance against Zamira, but it is fighting with all it has, as if it’s protecting something.
