It has been long since the level 8s finished their battles, and only White Queen and Cruel King are left.
They don’t look like they will go for very long either. They are similar overall but White Queen is relaxed unlike Cruel King who seems rushed.
It is because she has her subordinates to back her up. Battles between those at the top are decided by the small things rather than big things. It was not small that the tables had been turned, but it would not have ended so quickly under equivalent conditions.
Bang!
White Queen’s spear slashes through the air.
Stabbing?
It is a long distance javelin.
Looking carefully, the end of the flying spear is a hook. It is a measure to prevent penetration with a blow.
The spear goes through Cruel King’s stomach. It seemed like it would go through because of the strength it was thrown with, but it got caught on the hook and bounced back as though being dragged.
Hah!
White Queen stumbles and falls to her knees.
She is exhausted.
Not enough to come down from her awakened state, but her stamina and strength are at their ends.
The right hand weapon and left hand shield she creates in her awakened state are vividly different from what Cha Jun Sung can create. She cannot create them as she wants if they are broken. Her weapon and shield are the most important parts of her body apart from her nucleus.
The most powerful means of attack.
The most powerful means of defense.
Not only is regeneration not an easy feat, she will feel herself losing energy if she regenerates by force. It is best to maintain them.
Boom!
White Queen holds her body up with her shield so that she does not fall over. The top half is cut off and the bottom looks like it was slashed up.
Cruel King’s relentless attacks have reduced it to this state.
There are cracks all over her body armor, and blood seeps out. The armor is a part of her as well. If it cracks or rips, her main body is being hurt.
White Queen breathed heavily for a moment and then ran at Cruel King. He is unable to move because he has been speared. His body is not touching the ground, but he looks like he is lying flat.
“Huh? What are you doing there?”
White Queen’s eyes are full of wonder. Parasite King suddenly appeared and is observing Cruel King.
“I’m taking over.”
“Taking over? Are you saying that you’re going to be parasitic to Cruel King?”
Parasite King nodded. There is no good in hiding his intentions. He does not know how much time it will take to absorb a host like this.
That is not all.
There is no guarantee that he will succeed. Nevertheless, his instincts are telling him that it is a host worth risking his life to take over.
“Did he allow it?”
“He promised me a great host when he brought me here.”
White Queen scratched her head, wondering what to do. If Parasite King succeeds in taking over, will he stop at becoming a creature of the same level?
‘There’s nothing bad about it.’
She welcomes an ally becoming stronger. And judging by his actions, he does not look like he will back away. Her subordinates are half dead, and she is not in great condition either. It is self-destruction to fight with Parasite King, who is in a good state.
“I’ll allow it.”
“Ugh… What are you guys trying to do to me? You runts!”
Cruel King tried to get the spear out, but it did not go as he wanted because White Queen’s strength had gone into it. Dead Horse’s death was his downfall.
Parasite King gathered all kinds of parasites living in his clear body to one place. They keep eating each other.
Level 1s become level 2s, which become level 3s. As they decrease in number, only the top levels are left and as that process repeated several times, a clear parasite the size of a fist came out of Parasite King’s body.
“Ho?”
