Chapter 199 – Lightly-dressed Girl, Night Silver Blade (1/2)
“W-what are you doing?”
Charles realized that she wasn’t giving up by throwing away her sword, but simply switching a weapon!
He didn’t understand, if she couldn’t kill him with that long sword, what’s the point of switching to the dagger?
“Cooperate with me! Why do you have to think? Live! No matter how hard it gets, it’s better than dying!” Charles was unwilling and continued to try and persuade her.
He could feel his previous words shaking her resolve, but for some reason, she became even angrier.
What? Did he get it wrong? Could it be that she didn’t have a man she likes, but instead met a heartless bastard, so what he said made her angry?
But no matter what Charles tried to say, Shen DaiYing didn’t respond.
She first took off her jacket then her silk stockings, the only thing left was her white shirt. The loose lower hem of her shirt covered her shorts, revealing two slender white legs, like she wasn’t wearing anything underneath.
Like it wasn’t enough, Shen DaiYing lowered her head and looked at her legs. She then lifted up one leg, bent down, and grabbed ahold of her high heels with her slender fingers.
Then, she forcefully chucked it behind her. She gently stepped onto the ground and repeated what she did with her other shoe.
It seems she wasn’t accustomed to standing on the ground with her bare feet, she slightly curled her feet and shook, but she quickly readjusted.
Closely after, she slowly unsheathed the dagger.
“It seems like you’re not willing to cooperate.” Charles regretfully sighed, “Then I’ll let you die. Victor, take care of it.”
“Your Highness? Didn’t you want to catch her alive?”
“No…” Charles took a long look at that unyielding girl and shook his head, “There’s no way to catch someone who wants to die, so just let her have it her way.”
Charles didn’t know why she was still resisting, but her actions showed that she planned to fight to the death!
As if responding to Charles’s conjectures, Shen DaiYing’s disposition underwent a huge change.
The instant she unsheathed that dagger, a black mist seeped out. It acted like a python and started coiling around her arm, then upper body, waist, legs… and finally all of it was fused into her body and her eyes became pure black.
If she was an emotionless killing machine before, then now, she completely transformed into a ghost of darkness.
Shen DaiYing’s presence was originally already faint, but after being enveloped by the black mist, it nearly vanished. Even if you stared at her, it would feel like she would vanish from your line of sight at any time.
The first stage of ‘Moonlight soul-flower’, holding the sword Snow, was a state called ‘Flower Burial’.
The second stage, unsheathing Soul Slayer, was called ‘Dead Moon’.
The reason why she never uses Soul Slayer was because it was the key to using Dead Moon. As soon as it’s drawn, the killing aura would swallow her and change her into a reaper!
Why does she usually always wear black silk stocking?
Why does she always wear high-heels no matter where she goes?
The reason was to seal her own killing aura!
As soon as they were unsealed, this reaper would struggle free of its chains and harvest souls to its hearts content!
Shen DaiYing was invincible in this state.
“Your Highness, something’s not right!”
Devoru felt chills as he watched her change.
The other teachers felt the same way, they couldn’t get careless and immediately started moving.
The five each performed their own duties, three were responsible for suppression with instant cast magic, while the other two chanted and prepared an extra-powerful seventh level large-scale magic to blow her up.
“Fire Dragon’s Judgment!”
“Ice Shackles!”
The roaring fire dragon and tough ice chains exploded out at the same time, the instantly cast powerful sixth level magic took one’s breath away. A streak of red and one of blue enacted a beautiful song of fire and ice.
As expected of seventh level magicians, they had mutual understanding and they were adept at attack combos. A combination of ice and fire increased the destructive capability, the first wave of attacks instantly swallowed her frail body right after she drew her blade.
The explosion of magic rang throughout their ears, everyone watched as the fire dragon and ice shackles hit Shen DaiYing. These two opposing magic could create even more serious injuries than the Arc Light Assault Array, even if they had high willpower, their bodies would be be reduced to a pile of flesh.
But they miscalculated.
That pair of pitch-black eyes watched as the fire dragon came roaring towards her, and she gently raised her feet.
All that was left was a trace of her scent…
After that, she completely vanished, like a shadow dispersed by the light, without leaving anything behind, this was the true shadow blink!
“What? Where is she?”
After the magic vanished, everyone sluggishly stared at an empty array.
“Hey! Where did she go? Did she get blown to dust?” Victor nervously looked left and right and tried looking for traces she left behind.
Neither them nor the acute Golden Lion Devoru could see what happened.
What kind of move was that, teleportation? Was she also a magician, otherwise how could a physical body achieve such terrifying speeds?
