Chapter 1184 Golden Girl Against The Four Swordswomen
Chapter 1184 Golden Girl Against The Four Swordswomen
(MC POV)
All of my disciples seemed to have split themselves up for duels after that explosion that Lian Li and Elaria had caused.
Lian Li was paired with Eris, Manami went with Kiyomi, Brendan was up against Diao Chan and Elaria was facing off against Tsuki.
Truthfully, without resorting to using omniscience, I do not know who would win in each of these engagements.
The first pair was Lian Li and Eris, the former already outnumbered due to the fact that Eris had split herself into all of her personalities to face off against Lian Li.
My golden haired disciple did not seem too concerned over the fact that she was outnumbered and merely materialised even more of those storm clouds around her, expanding her domain until it clashed against Eris's.
On the other hand, Eris was being cautious of Lian Li as she knew that Lian Li was stronger in terms of raw power as compared to her. But her advantage lay in her adaptability and the fact that her other personalities can keep coming back even if they were defeated.
Not to mention her domain also allows her to create different branching paths with her multiple personalities at the same time, which allowed her four times the control over her domain as compared to Lian Li.
Bait was the first to engage her, still fulfilling her namesake as she worked to get the other goddess's attention.
Lian Li seemed to have anticipated that as several storm clouds immediately went towards Bait, shooting lightning bolts that were imbued with the concept of destruction at her.
Anything that lightning touches would be destroyed including domains as long as Lian Li's conceptual will was stronger. But even if they did manage to withstand the destruction concept, they would still get hurt from the lightning itself.
While Bait was occupied with protecting herself against the lightning bolts fired at her, Lian Li decided to take the initiative and go after Eris herself. An action that Eris seemed to have failed to anticipate as her eyes widened in surprise and needed a split second more to react to defend herself.
That split second was all Lian Li needed to get close to Eris and deliver a concentrated blast of destruction lightning into her abdomen, destroying the protective shield that Eris had around her.
The blow had also sent Eris stumbling back, further breaking her guard and leaving her open.
Lian Li, of course, did not let that opportunity go to waste and rushed forward, breaking through Eris's domain with another destruction lightning fired from her palm.
The other three finally came to their senses and leapt towards Lian Li in an attempt to protect their main body against the golden goddess.
Unfortunately for them, they had to contend with her array of storm clouds first as Lian Li arranged the clouds to form a wall that blocked them from approaching her.
While the other three were occupied, Lian Li continued her assault on Eris, the swordswoman finally managing to recover enough to bring her sword up to defend against Lian Li's next blow.
She barely made it in time as the next blast of lightning exploded against the surface of her sword, destroying the blade and shattering it into pieces.
Eris tried to materialise her domain again but Lian Li was just a second faster, her lightning smashing itself into Eris's abdomen before her domain could materialise.
The concept of destruction enveloped Eris, breaking her own concept of existence apart before the swordswoman completely disintegrated into nothingness.
Lian Li nodded to herself as she watched Eris's body disappear, which would have cemented her win against the swordswoman.
She then recalled back her storm clouds, ready to join back into the melee again to look for her next target.
Before she could even start flying away however, a sword was pierced through her chest from behind, surprising my golden haired disciple.
"Ahahaha! Did ya think it was that easy, sister Lian Li? Too bad, but we got ya!" Bait laughed.
Lian Li gasped as Bait's sword was pulled out from her chest, cutting the 'path' of her remaining in the battle royale.
"H… How?!" Lian Li demanded, even as she began to turn translucent.

The other two came in front of her and Lian Li realised that Eris was standing there unharmed.
The swordswoman gave her a peace sign, "Hehe~ You didn't even notice that I changed the path of my own existence eh? The one you were attacking was Denna, not me. And when you defeated her, you let your guard down!"
Lian Li had a look of frustration on her face as she realised she was actually beaten by Eris before disappearing from the battlefield.
A moment later, Eris's face appeared in the sky with Lian Li as the defeated beside her.
I would like to say that this was surprising but that would have been a lie since I could clearly see what Eris was doing the entire time.
I summoned a split body of myself and went to where Lian Li was, already expecting to see her feeling frustrated.
What I saw was her muttering in space by herself, "What do I do… Can I also change this somehow? Maybe I can… Eliminate the concept of her existence as well? Maybe fake an accident?"
I'm not sure what Lian Li was whispering about so I called out to her, "Lian Li? Are you ok?"
She jumped in surprise at my voice, "Ma… Master?! How… How long were you there?!"
"I just came here actually. Are you alright?"
Lian Li ran up to hug me, "Masteeeer!! I'm sorry!! I'm sorry!! Please don't hate me!! Waaaa!!"
That confused me a little, "Why would I hate you?"
"Be… Because I'm not good enough… Sniff… I was even the first to be eliminated!"
I hugged her close to me and patted her head, "You silly girl, do you actually think I'll hate you for something like this?"
She looked up at me, "Is… Is Master not disappointed? I… I failed you…"
"What? Just because you lost to Eris once? Sure you made a mistake, but everyone makes mistakes. As your Master, it just means I know what you're lacking and thus know how to help improve. I won't just start hating you for making a mistake."
"Uuuu… Master won't abandon me? I… I'm not failure?"
I pulled her closer, "Of course not. Did you forget what I told you when I first accepted you as my disciple? I told you you're special didn't I? My opinion hasn't changed."
She buried her face in my chest, "Waaah!! I love you, Master!!!"
"I love you too."
She's so cute~
I guess I should also be prepared to do this another six times when my other disciples start appearing.
Oh well, can't say I didn't expect this to be honest.
