Chapter 177 - The Fox And The Chimaera (1/2)
Guda had sprawled a lot of subconscious deterrents since the fight began. Ten percent of them were directed to her.
Ninety percent of them were meant to hide the Cannon Yelper.
In between her actions, she had been guiding the Cannon Yelper out with a food attached to a seamless string that only she could see. That string was strong enough to hold two tons of boulders so she wasn't afraid of a random attack bruising it.
That string was held tightly on the clenched fingers of her fox-hand gesture. As for how she managed to set it up, she had been putting one chunk of wrapped food behind the boulder from back then, out of the Yelper's vision. Of course, the food had been already enchanted with a specific subconscious deterrent that only she could choose who was able to detect it.
She then rushed in a zigzag pattern around the glade before going to the middle. Just like a puppeteer, she effortlessly controlled the Calamity on when it would act. When Guda hid the food from the Yelper, the Yelper realized what was going on and immediately shot the wicked witch until the fox allowed the Calamity to perceive the food again.
Guda then delicately pulled the food onto the ground below the witch, hiding it again, and resulting in an ambush of the Yelper to lunge onto the food in front of him—the witch.
Because of the sudden shift of intent of the Yelper to the creepy lady, she couldn't even react because there was no indication that she was being perceived.
Just like that, the Calamity chomped more than half of the women's body, gnawing it like a hungry bulldog.
The Yelper had also been enchanted with numerous buffs for this scenario to happen, and also in case that the woman hardened itself when it got eaten to prevent a stomach ache.
”Oops~! Turns out the Calamity happens to be right above you, sorry for that!”
Guda then realized that the witch's goons kept spawning despite their being no longer here. Either that the witch had a real body somewhere, or that those ugly humanoids were unconnected to the witch's lifeline, allowing them to act independently.
”This is bad, they will come to the Ouranos Citadel at this point.”
Taking out a huge scroll from her spatial storage, she laid it brutishly on the ground. Guda then began her chant before splashing the air in front of her with her finger.
”Binding Border: Illusionary Homeland!”
A reality marble was created, it prevented anything from the inside to escape as they would find the same scenery and place no matter how far they ran.
Right at the moment when it completely sealed that place, Guda escaped through the crack she made as she left the Cannon Yelper behind.
It stared at Guda, unknowing that it had been left to a perpetual cage just to wait for its death. Moved by the decisive action that the Yelper had made, Guda took out her precious Soul Binding Orb.
She hurled a blue ball of hellfire onto the Calamity, cremating it alive almost immediately without letting it feel any pain. Right when the Yelper's soul left its body, Guda used her Soul Binding Orb to keep it for her to move it onto a better vessel when she had the chance.
”You did good.” The fox happily caressed the orb.
