301 Future Trouble Part 2 (1/2)
Nailisi was clad 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 assailant behind Nailisi would never have thought that Nailisi was not human. Nailisi's tail popped out silently. Humans on the Myers Mainland had never experienced such a combat technique before.
The color of blood appeared on the assailant's blade, displaying a bright red color. The edge of the blade swerved sharply, going in the direction of Nailisi's tail.
This assailant 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 Mainland were very familiar with the ruthlessness, callousness, and slyness of demons. Similarly, 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 had come 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 Mainland had become extremely powerful, and only sorcerers would be able to survive their attacks. Since most demons were not good at flying, they were simply too lazy to pursue a sorcerer if the sorcerer was able to escape in time.
This misconception had become 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 too lazy to capture these creatures from the demonic plane.
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 assailant was beyond petrified and astounded. His feeling of shock was even more intense than when the black 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 assailant to misjudge Nailisi's capabilities. As he wielded his blade, 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 blade 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 assailant failed to release the power in his blade. Then, a bursting sound came from the end of Nailisi's tail as it ruthlessly smashed straight into the assailant's arm.
That red phantom given out by the strange-looking blade 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 assailant'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 assailant did not put on any armor, the barbarian's special arrow was already sharp enough to penetrate his sword aura protected body.
Ow…
After being hit in the arm by Nailisi, the assailant made a sound which did not sound human. Nailisi's tail had a mystical power. The assailant 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 assailant 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 assailant had two blades, and he was fairly courageous. Even though one of his blades had fallen to the ground, he still managed to move his body to use his other blade to hack at the barbarian's arrow.
Om!
Standing upright atop the tree, the barbarian launched another arrow, causing the arrow chord to produce a resounding noise. The second arrow had reached the assailant almost at the same time as the first. With a twist of his arm, the assailant swiped his blade in urgent strokes, forming a phantom of the blade in midair, thus knocking the two arrows onto the ground.
After that successful strike, Nailisi did not continue pursuing the assailant. The other assailant 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 slamming it forward. The two protrusions on her head crashed into the assailant's face once again.
A boom sounded. This time around, the assailant's head was destroyed. It had crumbled after that immense impact by Nailisi. Seeing that the assailant was barely breathing, Nailisi raised her head again before slamming it into the already crumbled face.
The assailant 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 assailant sent a chill into everyone's hearts. Blood and brain matter spurted in all directions. The assailant'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 assailant to lose all confidence, as all sorts of myths about demons overwhelmed his mind. The assailant's limbs were stiff while his heart was chilled. As he watched that green glow on Nailisi's hair, Nailisi broke the ribs of his companion 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.
