Chapter 345 Deciding Match 7 (2/2)
Rosen charged forward with his shields.
Two whistling whirlwinds once again rose from level ground from his shields. It was this particular move that thoroughly beat Anne and injured her heavily before. But this time, would Rosen be successful?
Anne had no intentions of giving up.
”—!”
The sound of ear-deafening friction resonated in the arena.
Anne gritted her teeth and her green eyes emanated even brighter. She forced her way through the powerful whirlwind.
Oh lord! What's with this young lady!?
Rosen never knew that his Storm Shielding technique could be destroyed by brute force.
Rosen's a goner!
Rhode exclaimed inwardly.
Although he wasn't aware of her beast bloodline source, he dictated that it was definitely from a wind elemental beast with elemental mastery higher than Rosen's!
Equally-ranked elements naturally cancelled out one another and now, they needed to compare which side was stronger. It was apparent that Rosen, as a pure human, wasn't comparable to Anne with a beast bloodline and a high-level wind elemental strength! Not to mention, Anne was fully awakened now.
”—!”
Anne dispersed Rosen's whirlwind with her shield and their shields collided. The powerful collision instantly erupted and blasted at him, which he quickly released his shields and retorted with his right fist.
Rosen's punch landed on her cheek and the strong force shook her slightly. But at the next moment, he regretted his decision. Anne glared coldly at him even though blood was leaking from her mouth and nose. Rosen thought that he was thoroughly in the claws of a crazy, dangerous, and bloodthirsty beast.
Indeed, at the next moment, his premonition came true.
Anne turned around and bit his hand. Her sharp fangs punctured through his palm and her green eyes shone.
”Argaaaaaaah!!”
As the saying goes, all ten fingers were linked to the heart, and even Rosen couldn't tolerate the pain as he screamed in horror and kicked her stomach. Then, he retracted his right arm—along with the splashed fresh blood in midair, he lost his index and middle fingers while his palm was mostly torn and revealed a ghastly sight.
However, Anne's aggression didn't stop.
After spitting out his fingers and flesh, she pounced on him and smashed her shield on his shoulder.
”You monster!”
Rosen was infuriated. As Anne tried to pin him to the ground, he reached out for his shield and thrust it into her stomach.
”Go to hell!”
Rosen snarled and pressed a switch on his shield handle.
”—!”
The sharp part of his shield which was supposed to stabilize firmly on the ground punctured her stomach instead and crimson blood spurted instantly. She stopped moving abruptly as though she were dead.
”Damn it!”
Rhode clenched his teeth. On the other hand, Lize and Lapis gawked with ashen expressions.
Is Anne—dead?
”Phew…”
Rosen let out a long breath. He didn't expect her to be so powerful to give him a tough fight —but it didn't matter anymore, since she was already dead.
Rosen let out a sneer and pushed off the corpse before him.
At this moment, Anne lifted her head all of a sudden.
The green radiance emanating from her eyes shone brighter than ever and her face had totally transformed into a beast in his eyes.
”H-How is this possible…!”
Rosen clutched his shield in attempt to fling her off. But this time, he felt that his shield was as though a thousand kilograms which couldn't budge at all. At this moment, Anne lifted the shield in her hand and her pupils abruptly shrunk.
”CraayMedon.” (Slaughter Mode)
The shield in her hand split and re-assembled in a series of gear crankings. In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a large, mechanical, wide-open mouth of a beast.
She held the shield with both hands and brandished.
”Noooo!”
Rosen put his hands out for defense, but it was all for naught.
Anne's weapon broke them and crushed his skull.
Bam!
Rosen's head ruptured like a balloon. The mixture of bones, blood, and brain splattered across the arena. His detached body shuddered and finally stopped moving after a few seconds.
However, Anne didn't stop. She kept smashing again and again at the headless corpse. Then, she tossed the weapon away and dug through his thick armor and chest with her bare hands. She searched and eventually narrowed her eyes as though she found something that she wanted.
Anne pulled herself away from the shield that punctured her stomach. Then, she stood high and mighty with her right arm in the air.
A bloody heart that had stopped beating was in her hand.
Green radiance emanated from her eyes and she raised her head to the sky.
”Aowuuuuuu—!!”
”—!”
She crushed Rosen's heart into bits and it splattered all around her.
Then, she swayed and collapsed to the ground.
