Chapter 539 - Skadi's Fury!
-----
Lily was surprised when Skadi suddenly broke out of her Blood Cage! This powerful Spell had always helped her in restraining foes that were too annoying to directly deal with, although it consumed a lot of Mana, it had never failed her in every situation she had used it.
However, against her own expectations, Skadi was able to free herself from the cage using sheer strength, and reached up to her in an instant, using her piercing blade to clash against her barrier of darkness.
CLAAAASH!
The powerful piercing attack coming from Skadi clashed against the Vampiress' shadow barrier, cracking and shattering it into pieces in an instant! However, Lily constantly conjured more and more barriers to shield herself from the living spear attacks, but ultimately failing to be able to defend against such a strong charge, especially because Skadi's aura was overflowing like a storm of icy winds!
Lily gritted her teeth, gathering he mana around her spear and clashing against Skadi with all her effort, while she multitasked and conjured several blades made of Cursed Blood, which she fired against Tisha to keep her away from her.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The explosive blood projectiles reached Tisha constantly, as Tisha gritted her teeth and unleashed a barrage of slashing attacks against them, the projectiles exploded the moment they were with her long-ranged slashing attacks, managing to not hit her directly.
However, some of the projectiles seemed to have come from below, piercing through Huginn's body and exploding!
"CRRYAA…!"
BOOOMMM!!!
"Agh! Huginn!"
Tisha cried desperately as she saw the white crow filled with large wounds, it began to vomit blood, but it still kept itself afloat.
Drake looked at the scene from afar and quickly decided to conjure healing spells, which he could even use in long distances as long as he used a lot of Mana.
FLAASH!
A flash of blue light reached Huginn, her wounds began to quickly heal and recover. Tisha noticed that Drake's support was something she could count on, so she quickly flew directly towards Lily once more.
Meanwhile, a black crow, Muninn, was flying atop of Lily while many magic circles were formed around his body, countless runes unified together into a large formation of magic, conjuring enormous quantities of shadows and darkness together, and forming large projectiles that began to fall over Lily!
Lily was pressured from three sides at the same time, above her head, to her back, and front! Tisha used her blade to unleash slashing attacks that seemed like icy storms, while Skadi behind her pierced her barriers and clashed against her spear constantly!
Meanwhile, Lily was trying to both keep up her distance from Skadi by intercepting her explosive attacks using her cursed spear, all while fighting against Tisha with her magic, while also trying to evade Muninn and Huginn's deadly magic attacks!
Her soldiers were being taken care by the ice golems and snow beast, so she couldn't properly command them to move them away. She never expected she would end in a situation where she would be ganged over by multiple foes at the same time as this!
"HAAAH!"
Tisha finally found a spot to attack, as her enormous ice blade clashed against Lily's barrier, cracking it, and shattering it into pieces, reaching up to the Vampiress and slashing through her back, freezing the wound, and inhibiting her movements!
SLASH!
"Uaggh…! Y-You bastard…!" cried Lily. The Elven Vampiress gritted her teeth and glared at Tisha hatefully!
CLASH!
Suddenly, her spear was shattered in front of her face, as an explosion of darkness came out of it as the accursed specters possesing the weapon suddenly were thrown way from their vessel!
BOOM!
"Uaggh…!"
Lily was thrown away outside of her mouth, which was quickly finished off by the twin crows.
She quickly used magic to keep herself floating in midair, only to see a large spear reach her in a mere instant, piercing her head!
CLAAAAAASH!
"Unngh?! Grraaagggh…! No…! Agghhh…!"
The Vampiress tried to take away the spear from her head, but Skadi continued to pierce through and began to spin, drilling through her brains and easily splattering her entire head into pieces!
"GRRYYYAAAAHHHH…!"
BOOOMMM!
A gory explosion of blood and brains covered the skies, as Lily's entire head was blown into pieces by the deadly power of Skadi, a living weapon such as a spear had incredible offensive prowess after all!
Skadi quickly felt her power increase too, the moment she destroyed that cursed spear, it felt as if she was shattered a mana core inside a monster, the power of that mana core was infused into her, and her power suddenly rose by quite a bit. Using this new power and abusing the lack of a weapon in the vampire's arsenal, she finally managed to pierce her brain and splatter her head into pieces.
The soul of the Vampire was quickly caught by Drake, as he nodded contently at the scene, the soul of Lily groaned in pain and anger, glaring at Drake hatefully.
"Unhand me…! Agh! Uuggh…! D-Did I die? I died…! Aghh!" she cried, struggling to free herself from Drake's grasp, but ultimately failing quite miserably.
Drake smiled maliciously at Lily's attempts at freeing herself from his grasp.
However, once dead, it was impossible to escape his deathly grasp, and there was nothing that could free her from it.
"You're going to bring me a lot of info, don't you?" asked Drake.
"Ugh… I won't talk… a thing… Wait, who are you even?!" cried Lily.
Meanwhile, the body of Lily began to fall from the skies as her beheaded neck began to leak a river of blood. Austr was struggling against a large group as well, suddenly noticing that Lily had died and clicking his tongue.
"Damn it! What sort of people are you all?! (Should I retreat?! But if I do, I will be offending my Empress… I cannot retreat… I must use all the power I have and fight against them to the death…)"
Austr was willing to give away his life if he could at least take down these enemies.
