Chapter 751: Desperate Fight!
Chapter 751: Desperate Fight!
—–
The monstrous creatures that attacked Manationia couldn't be said to be people anymore, possessed by dark forces and energies that the girl couldn't completely understand but that she slightly recognized from the entity that attacked her sleep, she decided to go all out against these!
Manationia had been training magic all this time! And it wasn't for nothing! She was going to go all out and finish these deadly threats!
Manationia saw as their bodies exploded as their muscles began to expand and grow, their skin turned black and so their feathers… their legs turned monstrous, sharp claws emerged over their feet, and their beaks turned metallic and enormous!
Even horns grew over their heads! Manationia could feel a lot of mana coming out of their bodies! They were somehow being enhanced by some strange method…
"GRAAAA!"
One of them roared angrily, clashing against Manationia's, she swiftly evaded, but his beak attack was so strong that the entire tree was cracked open and fell over the floor!
BOOM!!!
"W-What the…?! What's going on? T-This is new…!" said Manationia in surprise and a bit of fear, looking at the monsters approach her relentlessly!
"GROA!"
Another one of them reached to her, using its foot and claws, it clashed against the tree branches and destroyed them, forcing her to fly using magic.
A third on attempted to attack her from behind as she ran away!
"Ngh…! I won't back down even against you!" she roared angrily, as she filled herself with bravery and unleashed a powerful spell!
A large magic circle emerged in front of Manationia as several runes spiraled around, she wasn't using "songs" anymore, but true magic taught to her by her loyal Octo, her guardian spirit!
She channeled the power of flames as she used her vast mana. The elements danced around her and continued to concentrate into the magic circle!
"Eternal Blazing Cage!"
BOOOM!
A massive amount of flames erupted from the ground, encompassing her foe entirely! The destructive flames continued to devour the one that had attacked her. His new and resilient monstrous body still had zero chances against the fierce Manationia's flames!
FLUUUUOOOSSH!
"GRYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAHHH…!"
The beast that was once a man that served the Duke of Yggdra was consumed by flames, turning into a calcinated corpse, and dying on the spot! The flames covered his entire body and had consumed him instantly!
The other two beasts looked back at Manationia in surprise but were too wild and angered to even consider escaping, the power taking over their bodies was too strong, like an all-devouring parasitizing force.
The only thing they could do was roaring and attacking Manationia with everything they had! Enormous and explosive beams of darkness reached her in an instant from the monstrous beaks of these creatures, Manationia quickly evaded while jumping away from their range, while generating barriers made of light to protect herself from the upcoming physical blows.
CLASH! CLASH!
Two shadow-covered claws fell over the light-attribute barriers covering Manationia from danger. She gritted her beak as she glanced down at the foes.
She swiftly moved her wings as she encompassed them with wind magic, covering the feathers with them and then firing them as deadly knives against her foes!
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
The feathers reached her two foes as they pierced through their flesh and then exploded into deadly wind bursts!
BOOM! BOOM!
Their flesh exploded into pieces as their bodies received heavy injuries in mere seconds!
Manationia flew towards one of her foes, mercilessly kicking it down with her talon and then pointing her magic at it, while it could still not react in time, a downpour of turbulent and spiraling water fell over it!
TRUUUUMMM!!!
"GRUUUOOHH…!"
The water pressure and weight were gigantic, the beast had its entire body crushed into the ground, its bones broke, and it even began to be torn apart by the second! What was left was only but a corpse resembling a pile of pulp and bones…
"Graaah?!"
Manationia didn't stop there, she was already tired of dealing with creep stalkers that came after her when she was busy hunting or doing her things, so she quickly and swiftly moved towards her foe and kicked it with a strong blow, powerfully throwing it into the ground mercilessly, as flames encompassed her feathers and flew towards her foe!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"GRRYYYEEEEEHH…"
And like that, the third and last one died calcinated completely by her blazing feathers!
Manationia looked down at the corpses for a bit, averting her gaze from them and sighing in relief while resting over the floor.
"Phew… That was harsh…" she sighed.
"Eh? You're serious? They looked to be some sort of powerful side boss, but you just kicked their asses like nothing and you're saying it was harsh?!" asked Octo, emerging at the side of Manationia.
"There you are! Where were you all this time? You went missing!" said Manationia.
"I was inspecting the surroundings, I knew you would survive anyways, they didn't looked all that amazing… It seems that there is nobody else than them, but I think I can easily track where they came from… probably we'll find their hideout at long last… Manationia, are you ready to deal with the cultist yet? This might be the opportunity." Said Octo.
"Already?! I-I don't know… I think we should ask the souls before doing anything rash." Said Manationia.
"Hmm… You're right, it might even be a trap to lure you in… That entity… What does it really wants from you? I wonder… Oh well, for now, how about you raise them as Undead and begin asking a few questions?" asked Octo.
"Good idea… I don't want to fight anymore for today…" sighed Manationia.
Although she had developed a lot mentally these last weeks, she was still a normal girl, so after killing three people in a row, she wasn't feeling like killing another dozen, this already put her in some mental fatigue, and she just wanted to relax a bit…
