Chapter 584 - 584 - Bloody Battle (Part 2)



Like a rapidly spreading, highly infectious plague, the new, wicked, violent, and much more vibrant new color quickly overtook the entire surface. The creature\'s void, dark eyes were no more, it turned into a highly expressive, threatening, and diabolical new glowering fierce gaze.

Still, the creature wasn\'t finished. Following its change in its eyes, a powerful vermilion aura exploded from the beast. Falling onto the dimly lit underground caverns like a velvety blanket of bloody mist.

Looking at the sudden change, Drake knew he needed to act. He had to push on the opportunity given to them by the surprise of his attack before it would be too late, and the beast would finish this unholy transformation. 

Looking at the side from the corner of his eyes, he could see the same exact look, the same exact determination from his sister. They both knew they needed to act, and make sure to end this clash before it would be too late. 

Not to mention that they could feel the air gradually turning heavier, as more and more pressure was exerted on them, coming from the monstrous aura that kept on climbing higher and higher, the voluminous shout may have also alerted the rest of the creature\'s kin. More of these demonic beasts could be advancing at their location.

They needed to escape, they needed to look for an exit. 

If they could get in, there had to be a way out, back to the surface. How else did that other spider-like creature appear in front of the girls yesterday then?

Coming to the same conclusion, both siblings suddenly jumped to action. While Drake once again used the most direct method he could and charged ahead, closing the faint distance the creature created with its earlier jump, he struck down with his sword raised above his head. 

With both hands gripping Mort\'s handle, the sword, glowing and glimmering with a faint pale bluish coat of light sailed the air. The blade blurred as it seemingly distorted the space around it, causing its figure to leave behind momentary afterimages as it arced towards the devilish visage of the monster.

At the same time, a slender body sailed across the air above the beast, spinning, rotating around her own axis, flying like a torpedo. Using the nearby rocky wall once again, Scarlet lounged upwards, flying and flipping above the beast. Her fangs, the shining daggers turning her spinning airborne traversal akin to a deadly armament as she propelled herself forward and landed behind the beast.

As she landed, she didn\'t hesitate, knowing the beast could just as well defend herself from behind as it could from the front using its chitinous and venomous tail as an extra viral appendage.

Just as her feet touched the ground, Scarlet used all of her momentum to strike both her arms with all the additional and leftover power she could muster, lounging both blades at the sides of the beastly monster\'s waists, aiming just at the small slits, the joints between the lower and upper body armor plates on its body.

The girl\'s brazen action turned out to be fruitful in the end, as the creature seemed to be startled, confused for the first time. Sensing attacks from all possible directions, for a brief fraction of a second, it didn\'t know which action it should respond to.

A brief fraction of a second. Such a small, impossibly tiny window of opportunity, that on the battlefield could decide the difference between victory… or death.

Drake was surprised by his sister\'s decision to charge at the monster from the opposite side. He knew it was reckless of her, but he also knew that this brazen action of hers would have a chance to take the beast\'s attention away from him.

The monster was so enraged and confused it could barely comprehend what was happening. Eventually, its instinct to protect its soft, unprotected parts proved to be victorious over its clear thinking, causing it to shift in its stance as it wanted to defend itself from the attacks coming from behind.

After the momentary hesitation, the creature ultimately chose to swipe tail and remaining claws backward, choosing to instinctively respond to the girl\'s surprise attack.

Yet, this decision left him unguarded from the front, allowing the blueish humming source of heavenly light to clash with its own bloodthirsty, vicious aura. 

The monster instantly tried to shift its body to the side to avoid the incoming attack from its front, but it was already too late, and more importantly, too slow. Drake\'s sword, Mort\'s glimmering blade pierced through the thin opposing aura of protection and pierced through the dark grey fur into the creature\'s chest.

Plunging deep below the surface, boring deep below the flesh of the howling beast. Drake pushed even further, even deeper, sloshing through the copious amounts of the gushing, oozing blood and gore.

The beast could only howl in pain, swiping its remaining claws madly in the air, fighting a desperate last-ditch effort to at least not walk to the afterlife by all its lonesome. Yet as the glowing blade reached closer and closer to the central section inside its chest, so did its remaining strength and power falter, escaping with the oozing dark blood from its body.

Sensing the suddenly solid material blocking his blade, Drake smirked madly, using even more of his strength and even bodyweight to keep on pushing through the resistance. He roared like a predator that was just about to give that last strike against its prey that would forever snuff the soul out of its trembling body.

As the dark blood kept on flowing, drenching the already dark fur bloodied, Drake finally soldiered through the last bastions of the beast\'s resistance. An audible, but muffled crack escaped from the monster\'s wound, filling the air amidst its gradually faltering howls, as the artifact blade shattered the crystalline walls of the monster\'s core.

In the next second, bright blue light seeped through the crevices of the flesh. Like a bomb that activated its catalyst, the shattered inner energy in the creature\'s core violently reacted to the mysterious energy, the sword\'s light causing it to explode in the next instant.

The blast instantly swallowed the beast\'s body, flinging both siblings back in the air. Both of them were at the very epicenter of the blast, it was only thanks to their protective treasures that their bodies were kept intact. 

As Drake was flung back in the air like a broken kite, so was Scarlet\'s unconscious body thrown right into the unexplored darkness of the tunnel…
