Chapter 361 A Sudden Turn Of Events!
—–
Maria smiled slightly as she saw Agatha’s annoying Blood Armor finally break into pieces, exposing her body which was simply covered in black leather clothes. A second after, she generated dozens of enormous phantasmal snakes and directed them towards her, as Agatha saw herself being engulfed in a sea of disgusting phantasmal creatures!
“AGH…! Y-You…!”
“Undead Detonation.”
“Huh?!”
BOOOOOOMMM!!!
In a mere second, and quite ruthlessly, Maria decided to blow Agatha into pieces the moment her non-protected flesh was exposed like the flesh inside the boiled pincers of a crab or lobster. Although it weakened her if she created too many Phantasmal Familiars to detonate, she had to sacrifice a bit of her current strength if she wanted to kill this woman.
The explosion was so strong it covered the sky with black clouds. Maria was incapable of seeing Kuro and Raven fighting anymore, but quickly detected both were knocked out, however, three more presences had emerged right after that, and one of such presences was fighting Beowulf as of now, beating him to the ground at that. Maria felt relieved they were her beloved allies, most likely. However, she felt like they were a bit late right now, especially seeing how Agatha might probably be turn apart into shreds by now…
Or wasn’t she?
“Wait, where’s my EXP?” Maria immediately wondered this; Agatha had not given her a single point! It meant that the Vampiress had yet to die. “Seriously, you survived that?!”
Maria began to spread out her phantasmal and supernatural senses, quickly realizing that Agatha’s presence was still in midair. Her eyes flashed with bright light as she used the powers of the Eyes of the Gorgon to see through the black smoke.
What she saw was an utterly bizarre sight! Agatha’s entire body was torn into red and flesh pieces, with blood floating in midair and keeping it all from splattering over the floor. The flesh and the blood quickly began to stick together with one another as Maria detected a large black jewel emanating a truly demonic essence keeping Agatha from dying. To Maria, it felt as if Agatha was like a slime made of flesh.
This was surely not a “natural” power of the Vampire race of Majin! Even Majin were not as ridiculous as this, there were none of them that could simply survive being torn apart into pieces, and even Undead had a hard time surviving such an explosive onslaught… So how?! Maria, however, had no time to just sit down and watch her regenerate, as she quickly flew towards Agatha and decided to tear her apart before it were to be too late.
“Oh no, you won’t!” Maria roared, turning into a mass of phantasmal flies which granted her the fastest speed while retrieving most of the items she held back to her inventory except her Cursed Sword, which had leveled up since she acquired it and had evolved a few times, becoming stronger.
This cursed item should be more than capable of either slaying Agatha’s soul or whatever that strange black crystal was. However, deep down, Maria couldn’t help but feel like that crystal had something similar to something she had seen before. It reminded her or something… or someone.
BBBZZZZ!
The sound of countless flies flying towards the regenerating mass of flesh and blood that Agatha was resonated across the skies, as Maria pointed her sword towards Agatha’s black crystal, enchanting it with her Mana and coating the weapon in phantasmal flames. Maria had the intuition that whatever that crystal was, it was surely the thing keeping Agatha from completely dying!
“Blade Slash!”
SLAAASH!
Maria swung her sword strongly, infusing it with magic to unleash a powerful black slash infused with her Darkness and Death Element. In mere seconds, the slash reached the black crystal!
However! A large mass of flesh gathered in front of the crystal, attempting to shield it from being slashed, and receiving most of the damage itself.
BOOOM!
The explosive slash blew away most of the flesh, but the flesh that remained quickly began to multiply itself as more dark energy poured from the crystal, which began to fly upwards.
“What the…? Hey, come back!”
Maria began chasing down the black crystal, as it suddenly began to explode with more and more dark energies, in a single second, an enormous mass of darkness emerged from within the black crystal, covering the sky with black clouds!
TRUUUUMMM…!
“E-Eh?!”
Two enormous crimson-red eyes appeared within this emerging darkness, constantly growing larger and more terrifying. The flesh completely merged with the darkness, forming a strange black flesh fetus that continued to develop, enveloped in a transparent membrane.
The scene itself was utterly bizarre for Maria!
“What is going on?! System!” Maria desperately called for her System, as things were promptly appraised while she was trying to resist the enormous pressure emerging from this strange fetus, which was unleashing a domain of pure demonic essence.

[Evil God Fragment’s Demonite Crystal Heart Core]
A large piece of processed excretions of an Evil God Fragment containing part of its monstrous and world-defying demonic power. It contains large quantities of miasmic essence and demonic energies that can corrupt and distort the world. This core has been connected to the soul and Blood Core of a Vampire and has been fused into a Heart Core capable of reviving the user of this fragment if it ever falls to its ultimate death.

[Miasmic Demonite Larva]
An aberrant fetus formed from the excretions of the Evil God Fragment’s Demonite Crystal and the living flesh and soul of a sacrifice. It emanates a deadly Miasmic Domain that can consume any living being in its surroundings and directly damage souls to protect itself while developing its larval stage, which might take a few minutes to fully develop into a young adult. Upon developing, chaos and darkness will engulf its surroundings.

“What?! I knew it! That crystal was what the twins got… but even more upgraded than them? And.. it can revive its wielder?!”
Maria was utterly flabbergasted by the news, just as Partner and Emeraldine reached her, just to be as shocked as her about what was before them.
