Chapter 356: Roses with Thorns (2/2)
When Amelia and Envy attacked one of the male angels, Lucien's other wives attacked the other angels.
Anne and Elsie surrounded the same target along with Lorelai, the other male angel besides Lord Antonius. This angel is the youngest in the group and just reached Sky Realm a week ago; that is, he is the weakest in the group, and after spending a lot of light mana with those three rays, he is already slightly tired.
*Clang*
That angel takes a gray sword from his storage ring and blocks the black katana of Lorelai, making a loud metallic sound.
She feels that she cannot move the sword a millimeter forward due to the angel's incredible strength, but when he pushes her back, Lorelai also feels that he is not as strong as she expected. He is clearly more likely a mage than a warrior.
"Bitch!!" The angel curses Lorelai and prepares to attack her, but then he finds himself surrounded by the two fox girls, who attack him quickly with short swords.
Using his high speed, that angel manages to block Anne and Elsie's attacks without any problems while they attack him many times.
But then Lorelai comes back to attack the angel from the front, while the fox girls attack his sides. He can't help but be shocked by the speed of the girls, which despite being inferior to his, it is much higher than that of anyone from the Mortal Realm and even better than that of people from the Earth Realm early stages.
While Lorelai focuses entirely on the attack, using all the katana movements that Lucien personally taught her, she uses her ability to create defensive shards around her body to block the angel's counter-attacks.
Elsie just reached the second layer of the Mortal Realm approximately two hours ago, but due to being the first of Lucien's wives to receive an energy mix with three different demonic energies, she received the most significant improvement in such a short period of time.
s
Thus, she quickly attacks the angel while feeling Lucien's energy running inside her body. That feels so good because it looks like she has Lucien by her side all the time, sharing his power, or rather their power so that she can be even stronger.
Still, Elsie's strength and speed are some levels below those of Anne, who had the mix of two demonic energies for quite a while and Lucien's original energy for even longer.
Also, Anne has her second tail grown and feels a deep connection with her two tails while attacking the angel with her short sword. She actually seems to be dancing around him with smooth, swift, and deadly strikes.
*Clang* *Clang* *Clang* *Clang* *Clang* *Clang*
The metal sounds echo as that angel manages to block the three blades without problems and still counter-attacks Lorelai, but he is frustrated by not being able to get through the defensive shards.
Also, with each attack by Anne, he feels that she is getting faster. He even seems to be seeing two fox girls on Anne's side as she is getting so fast that she seems to be creating blur images with her swift movements.
[DAMN!!! Why do they have such incredible abilities?!?!] The angel tries to maintain a confident posture but mentally, he is shocked by the girls' abilities.
Such incredible abilities are very rare in medium worlds, let alone inferior ones where people usually don't reach the Mortal Realm.
Still, that angel is confident of beating the girls due to his power level being so much higher than theirs. The potion he took has already recovered a good deal of his light mana, so his body starts to glow with white light as he tries to blind the girls.
*Wooosh* *Boooom*
But at that moment, the girls duck and attack his legs while an arrow charged with life energy explodes near his face, blinding him for a second, time enough for Neola's arrow to reach that angel's eye.
His body is very resistant, but like most people, it has more fragile points than others, and his eyes can be hurt by a black steel arrow fired by Neola, using Lucien's golden bow.
Despite being momentarily blind, that angel feels the second arrow at the last moment and dodges it, avoiding a direct strike, but the arrow's tip side still hurts his eyes, causing a tiny but serious wound.
The eyes are a very fragile part of the body, and that small cut blinds one of the angel's eyes while he is in great pain.
"AAAAAAHHH!!!" He screams and quickly makes a long horizontal cut around his body with his sword while white light emanates from it.
Anne, Elsie, and Lorelai jump back to avoid the angel's furious attack, and at that moment, he flies to the sky while covering his bruised eye with one hand.
But then a long stone spike comes from the ground towards the angel. The girls quickly climb up the stone spikes and run after the angel in the sky.
That angel tries to flies away, but then Aria and Ella attack him from behind with powerful sound waves.
*Screeeeee*
The piercing cry destabilizes the angel's flight, and he turns to attack the harpies, but then, the stone spike hits his back.
The tip of the stone spike breaks without causing damage to the angel, but Anne, Elsie, and Lorelai arrive at the angel and attacks his back with all their strength.
A purple sparkle appears on the girls' eyes as the angel feels cold and his wings start to freeze.
[FUCK!!] He thinks.
While those girls were fighting, the two other male angels, Kylee, Rebecca, Oya, Ko, and Ghalenna, went towards the female angel.
*Roar*
Oya and Ko, using their incredible speed, jump on the female angel. She quickly takes a large tower shield from her storage treasure and tries to defend herself from the tigresses.
*Bam*
That angel blocks Oya's big body, and before the tigress can scratch that angel's face, she is thrown back to Ko in the air.
The tigresses roll on the ground without suffering serious damage while recovering their balance.
Kylee uses that moment to attack that angel with her black halberd. She makes a vertical attack with her massive strength.
*BAM* *Clang*
Due to the high senses and speed of that angel, she manages to move the shield towards Kylee and block her halberd. Still, Kylee's unbelievable strength pushes her back a few millimeters, which scares her.
Kylee already expected that angel to block her attack, but her intention was to hold her shield for Rebecca and Ghalenna to make the real attacks.
"HAAAAA!!!" Rebecca spins her warhammer with all her strength towards the female angel's flank.
That angel is really shocked, but then her body glows with white light, and Kylee feels the shield moving.
After boosting her strength, the female angel manages to move the shield to the side even with Kylee's halberd holding it in time to block Rebecca's attack as well.
*BAM* *Clang*
Another strong impact sound echoes with a metallic sound as the female angel feel her shield being pushed back an inch.
Of Lucien's wives, Kylee has an ability that allows her to have very high brute strength and Rebecca, despite not having such an ability, has strength as her main attribute as well, in addition to exercising her muscles a lot as a blacksmith.
As soon as that angel blocks Kylee and Rebecca's attacks, Ghalenna flanks her further and attacks her wings with her emerald sword.
Although Ghalenna does not have Lucien's demonic energy in her body, she is in the third layer of the Mortal Realm and has some Pride energy, which makes her slightly stronger than a normal person at that same power level.
But that makes her a lot weaker than Lucien's wives, who already have power equivalent to Earth Realm people.
The female angel notices Ghalenna's attack and, using her free hand, grips her neck as she hits the emerald sword in her wings without causing any damage.
"A-A-AH-RR..." Ghalenna feels as if the hand of that angel is made of metal as she quickly runs out of breath.
*ROAR*
The tigresses attack the angel quickly after recovering their balance, and she is forced to stop strangle Ghalenna to use her body to hit the tigresses in the air.
*BAM*
The female angel hits Oya and Ko with Ghalenna's body as if she were using a rag doll. The tigresses are thrown backward and again roll to the ground to regain their balance.
But Ghalenna falls to the ground and rolls without being able to get up because she is still unable to breathe properly. Her neck is totally red and bruised due to the brutal grip of that angel.
The girls get worried about Ghalenna, but they can't stop now.
Kylee can't move her halberd, so she releases it and quickly jumps over the female angel's shield, trying to punch her, which can still be a strong attack due to her high strength.
At the same time, Rebecca swings her warhammer again towards the shield of that angel, and she has no choice but to step back.
At that moment, ice spikes fall on top of that angel, and one of Ghilanna's charged arrows also explodes on her face.
All of that happening at the same time confuses the angel's senses, and she fails to notice Kylee's fist just a few centimeters away from her face as Rebecca's warhammer approaches her legs.
After recovering her balance, Oya attacked the male angel next to her as he had his guard open, but little Ko jumped again towards the female angel while her fangs glow with purple and gray energies.
The female angel underestimated Lucien's wives, and now she can't help but regret it.
"SHITTT !!!" She exclaims as she sees Kylee's fist breaking the ice in front of her face.
While those three angels were attacked by Lucien's wives, Lord Antinous was as well.
In fact, he was the first to be attacked as Olivia's dark magic strands quickly emerged around his body while she was still running towards him beside Scarlett, and Astrid flew to flank him.
"Dark magic!!" Lord Antonius makes an expression of disgust. Angels hate dark magic as they hate demons.
He quickly moves one of his hands like a sword, and a flash of white light destroys Olivia's dark magic strands while he also picks up a long gray spear in his other hand.
Unlike the other angels, who were on the defensive, Lord Antonius runs towards the girls, already attacking with his spear, creating a horizontal strike also with light mana.
Scarlett and Olivia attack together, using the red saber and a black katana to make vertical strikes, aiming at Lord Antonius' spear.
*BAM*
The blades of Scarlett and Olivia hit Lord Antonius' spear, but there is no metal sound.
The girls use all their strength to push him back, but the superior strength of Lord Antonius, who is in the half of the second layer of the Sky Realm, is very high.
His horizontal strike is not stopped, and he throws Scarlett and Olivia many meters back.
They roll on the ground with minor injuries while Astrid descends from the sky, on top of Lord Antonius, attacking with her big and sharp dark claws gauntlet.
But, finishing his horizontal strike, Lord Antonius quickly attacks Astrid, still in the air, with his spear blade.
Due to his high speed, Astris is forced to cancel her attack and hold the tip of his spear with her dark gauntlets.
Due to Rebecca's incredible work on those gauntlets, Astrid doesn't get hurt with the spear blade, but Lord Antonius swings it and throws her back many meters too.
Astrid regains her balance while still in the air due to her bat wings. She tries to attack him again, but he notices Neola and Ghilanna attacking his teammates with arrows and flies towards Neola to kill her first.
Neola notices Lord Atonious flying towards her, but his speed is very high, and she realizes that she has no way out.
As an instinctive move, she raises Lucien's golden bow in front of her body to defend herself.
Lord Antonius does not like to kill, but he knows that they are enemies and there is no room for mercy. Then he makes a mighty attack with his spear to kill Neola with a single clean strike.
That moment seems to be in slow motion for him. Then, he sees a small, young girl walking in front of Neola.
[WHAT?!?!] Lord Antonius is confused because he does not want to kill that unarmed little girl. But he can't stop his attack, and at the last moment, he closes his eyes to avoid seeing the damage he will do to her small and fragile body.
Neola was also taken aback by the quick action of Kara, who came up behind her after not following Angela and Jeanne on the floating platform.
Kara definitely has no combat skills, and she doesn't even want to fight. But when she saw an enemy attacking one of her sisters, she felt she had to defend Neola.
But she has no control over her ability, and all she can do is raise her little hands towards Lord Antonius.
Then, under an attack, the special energy within Kara is aroused with Lucien's demonic energy, and the translucent protective barrier appears, defending Kara and anyone behind her.
*BAMMMM*
Lord Antonius feels like hitting something extremely hard. Then he opens his eyes and notices his spear, being blocked in the air by a translucent mystic force a few centimeters from Kara's small, delicate hands, while she smiles with a confident expression at him.
"Little girl... what power is this?" He asks as he can't move a millimeter, even flapping his wings hard.
s
"It's my hubby power." Kara giggles with a purple sparkle in her eyes.
