Nailisi was d in a long white fur coat. At this point in time, a tail, which was several meters long, sprang out from under her coat. The color of the tail was silvery grey, with a slight hue of gold and green, and magic patterns were spread throughout the tail. At the end of the tail was a razor sharp spike, like a miniature spear head.
The assant behind Nailisi would never have thought that Nailisi was not human. Nailisi’s tail popped out silently. Humans on the Myers Maind had never experienced such abat technique before.
The color of blood appeared on the assant’s de, disying a bright red color. The edge of the de swerved sharply, going in the direction of Nailisi’s tail.
This assant was now horrified. He might not have been a mage, but he could already guess Nailisi’s identity.
Demon! Demon! The humans on the Myers Maind were very familiar with the ruthlessness, callousness, and slyness of demons. Simrly, professionals regarded demons as very powerful beings.
The profession of a swordsman did not have a long history, and all of their knowledge on demons hade from the mages. Furthermore, the power of mages had been deteriorating in recent times, and hence their opinions of demons were quite exaggerated.
Back then, humans had used to capture demons. Those remaining demons on the Myers Maind had be extremely powerful, and only sorcerers would be able to survive their attacks. Since most demons were not good at flying, they were simply toozy to pursue a sorcerer if the sorcerer was able to escape in time.
This misconception had be widespread. Back in those days, the demons which had been captured by humans were at least at the grade of a devil. As for creatures like the demons, imps, and spirits, humans had simply been toozy to capture these creatures from the demonic ne.
Nailisi and the two grand swordmasters fought desperately, none of the parties daring to take any chances. Even though those protrusions on Nailisi’s head were not fully developed horns, her tail was already that of an average demon’s. The assant was beyond petrified and astounded. His feeling of shock was even more intense than when the ck bishop had realized that Saleen possessed another type of divinity.
Demons were not good at casting spells, but this female demon in front of him had just instantly cast two spells. This caused the assant to misjudge Nailisi’s capabilities. As he wielded his de, he did not try to stab Nailisi in the back. Instead, he went to block the attack from Nailisi’s tail.
Nailisi did not have any feeling in her tail. When the de hit her tail, sparks flew in all directions. From a straight stab to a horizontal swipe, Nailisi’s tail changed its direction of attack. The assant failed to release the power in his de. Then, a bursting sound came from the end of Nailisi’s tail as it ruthlessly smashed straight into the assant’s arm.
That red phantom given out by the strange-looking de was deflected by the magic patterns on Nailisi’s tail, and not a single strand of it entered Nailisi’s body.
Whoosh!
A feathered arrow was shot from Conan’s longbow, heading straight for the assant’s brain. This shot was extremely direct, which meant that the arrow travelled at a high speed. There was no special attack on this arrow, and the obsidian arrowhead was already sharp enough. Since the assant did not put on any armor, the barbarian’s special arrow was already sharp enough to prate his sword aura protected body.
Ow…
After being hit in the arm by Nailisi, the assant made a sound which did not sound human. Nailisi’s tail had a mystical power. The assant felt like magma had entered his arm, and a burning smell emanated from his bone marrow.
The strongest weapon Nailisi had was her tail. Had this assant not resisted or wanted to die and taken Nailisi’s stab in return for his stab, Nailisi might have been hurt right now. However, he had been so frightened by Nailisi’s image that he had instinctively gone to block her tail. As a result, he had been seriously injured by Nailisi.
This assant had two des, and he was fairly courageous. Even though one of his des had fallen to the ground, he still managed to move his body to use his other de to hack at the barbarian’s arrow.
Om!
Standing upright atop the tree, the barbarianunched another arrow, causing the arrow chord to produce a resounding noise. The second arrow had reached the assant almost at the same time as the first. With a twist of his arm, the assant swiped his de in urgent strokes, forming a phantom of the de in midair, thus knocking the two arrows onto the ground.
After that sessful strike, Nailisi did not continue pursuing the assant. The other assant in front of her was dying, but if he was treated by a holy spell, he would be revitalized in no time. Nailisi then executed an extremely simple maneuver. She swung her head backwards before violently mming it forward. The two protrusions on her head crashed into the assant’s face once again.
A boom sounded. This time around, the assant’s head was destroyed. It had crumbled after that immense impact by Nailisi. Seeing that the assant was barely breathing, Nailisi raised her head again before mming it into the already crumbled face.
The assant behind Nailisi was stunned by her insane attacks. This was not how a human would fight. The sound produced from the crash of heads between Nailisi and the assant sent a chill into everyone’s hearts. Blood and brain matter spurted in all directions. The assant’s body, which was not frozen by the dragon’s tooth dagger, had finally stiffened. Any kind of sword aura would not have been able to defend against such an attack.
Nailisi’s tail had caused the assant to lose all confidence, as all sorts of myths about demons overwhelmed his mind. The assant’s limbs were stiff while his heart was chilled. As he watched that green glow on Nailisi’s hair, Nailisi broke the ribs of hispanion with one hand and took out the heart which was drenched in blood.
His partner’s life had been blessed by a holy spell in the past, hence it was abnormally resilient. Even though the heart was in Nailisi’s hand, it was still beating strongly. With the reflection of the snowy ground, this fuchsia heart was extremely blinding.
“Demon…” As the assant murmured, his heart was on the brink of copsing. Has god abandoned me? Nailisi looked back and gave a strange smile. She rubbed her fingers on her white clothes before standing up and walking towards the assant.
The barbarian called Conan witnessed the changes which were taking ce while he stood atop the tree, also experiencing a kind of fear. That was Nailisi’s demonic skill – Intimidation.
This skill exploited the weaknesses in an enemy’s mental state. If the enemy had aposed mind, this skill would not be so powerful. However, the assant’s mind was filled with the scary myths regarding demons, and thus, Nailisi’s skill could silently affect the assant’s mind.
“Let me free you.” Nailisi’s tail wagged, and greenish-gold magic patterns appeared on her skin. Under the fearful re of the assant, Nailisi ced her finger on the chest of the assant. Ka cha! She broke the assant’s ribs.
“Oh, so humans can be this horrified too…” Nailisi’s gaze looked a little confused, and she felt really good. All those tales about humans were so terrifying. Being locked up in the goddess’ temple for tens of thousands of years, Nailisi had heard devils cursing, worshipping, and envying humans.
The assant’s chest felt a little numb. Under the influence of Nailisi’s demonic skill, the assant would not feel any pain. He was just scared, very scared. As he held onto his de in one hand, the phantom on the de was still fluctuating, and a fresh drop of blood fell towards the snowy ground.
“Have… mercy, on me…” The assant could barely say a sentence. He entirely did not feel that his heart had alreadye into contact with the frigid air. A man who believed in god and was a hitman from the inquisition was actually begging for mercy from a demon.
“Okay, I will spare you.” Nailisi leaned forward and held the beating heart in her hand as she tried to experience her own skill. The heart of a human is actually so fragile, but why isn’t Master like this?
A sense of relief and happiness appeared on the assant’s face. He loosened his hand, causing the de to fall to the ground. Nailisi’s tail wrapped around the assant before hurling him towards a huge tree. The assant did not die. He could still live for another thirty minutes. Nailisi then waved at Conan and said, “Watch him.”
Conan simply nodded blindly. He was fearful of Nailisi, so he did not know what to say.
Nailisi retracted her tail and stealthily walked out of the forest. Saleen was fighting with the Holy See’s ck bishop, and Nailisi felt that Saleen had been injured. However, this injury was not transmitted to her, so Saleen must have still been alive.
Nailisi had too much faith in Saleen, as she did not know what the ck bishop represented. Having jurisdiction over arge diocese, the lives of over one hundred thousand believers were in the hands of a ck bishop. A person like that would have very powerful and longsting holy power. Furthermore, when someone reached the grade of a ck bishop, their god would typically award some divine power to them in order to allow the holy master to make huge progression in their skills.
Saleen was in the middle of a tough fight. The ck bishop might not have engaged in a fistfight for a long time already, but he was still very agile. After that kick by Saleen, the two of them began brawling. The ck bishop managed to rain blows onto Saleen’s body.
Saleen tolerated the pain and did not retreat. Instead, with his fists pointed to the bishop, Saleen punched the bishop in a frantic manner.
At this moment, Saleen’s magic could not be converged while the bishop’s divinity could be deployed. These two people, who were usually of a high status in the society, were now reduced to two ruffians.
Thum, thum, thum…
From afar, footsteps could be heard. These footsteps could not have been produced by a single person. Having been in the army with Lex for quite a long time, Saleen knew that such a tremble could only be produced by a group which had more than two hundred soldiers. Furthermore, the strength of these people was different from the earlier batch. At least half of them were already beginner swordmasters.
The ck bishop’s subordinates were here! The ck bishop’s subordinates could not fly, so they had arrivedte. However, at this point in time, Saleen did not have the ability to release any magic. Even if there was only one swordsman now, Saleen would still be killed, not to mention there being one hundred swordmasters and one hundred swordsmen.
Oh no, Saleen was not able to kill the ck bishop now, and furthermore, the bishop’s subordinates had made their way here. Saleen could not kill all of them in a single swoop. The ck bishop would definitely transmit the issue of Saleen’s divinity to Glorious City.
If the ck bishop escaped, Saleen would have to deal with endless waves of attacks by the Holy See in the future.
The Lord of Glory had a renowned saying – other than myself, there are no other gods. In the eyes of the Holy See, the Myers Maind belonged to the Lord of Glory. If not for the Holy See only being able to control the Tanggsi Empire due to the Myers Maind not being unified, the maind’s name would have long since been changed to the Glorious Maind already.
Such a Holy See surely had no room for heretics.
Just as Saleen despaired, the green water flow which encircled his body suddenly regained its vitality. Saleen managed to pick this up. Even though his mental power was in extreme chaos and he could not cast any spells, this water flow existed independently. Even if Saleen could not control the water flow, the water flow would also retaliate autonomously as long as he came under attack.
What about Nailisi? A glimmer of hope appeared in Saleen’s mind. If Nailisi had won her battle, she could help him kill the ck bishop. With the two fully constructed puppets and the water flow, Saleen would be able to exploit the terrain of the forest to trap those oing enemies. As long as Saleen held out until the mages from Sregl Ind arrived, he would be unharmed. No matter what, the ck bishop could not escape. Otherwise, Saleen would no longer live in peace henceforth.
