Chapter 363 Love And Death
Sophia couldn't help but furrowed her brows, her situation was gradually turning bad, not only had Bernad suddenly become both faster and stronger than before but she was also not at full power, especially when her symbiote bloodline power was constantly falling.
Which meant if she continued to fight her powers would eventually run out completely and at that point, she would then be between a rock and a hard place, which wasn't good considering there was still that demon beast Melissa and Bernard who was still in his abomination form.
As she was thinking she couldn't help but look at Melissa from the corners of her eyes, at the same she made sure to also keep an eye out for Bernard, so far he had managed to avoid each and every metal shard that she threw at him, not only that he was also making sure to cut out every string that was attached to the metal shards so that she wouldn't be able to use them against him.
She would have thought he was gradually gaining his senses back, if not for the fact that she could still feel he was emitting that dangerous and wild aura from his body, just then she could see it had quickly closed in on her, moving her finger once again the shield which she had formed before was raised in front of her.
When he saw the metal shield he remembered how the metal shard had pierced right through right him and immediately he got even more annoyed once again, and then when it was close enough it swung its claws wildly, turning the shield into smaller pieces of scrap metals that were unusable as it shattered them completely, making them fall to the ground.
Now with no more of those annoying metal shards blocking its way, the zombie halfling cat was able to move freely once again, as it took a step forward it suddenly felt something as if it had been prepared for it, the zombie halfing cat opened its mouth wide opened, as soon as did so a fiery fire immediately gathered about inside of its mouth, and then it turned to face Melissa who had just recovered.
When Melissa saw what it was doing she couldn't help but curse out loud and tried to dodge, but as the zombie halfing cat released the fiery fire bomb it sent Melissa flying once again. As Bernard was busy focusing on Melissa, it was unable to notice the metal shard that had appeared before it, like a blade, a metal shard came flying at it, and just as the zombie halfing cat was about to slash it in half and arrive before Sophia.
It suddenly looked down, and as it did so it couldn't help but stop what it was about to do the zombie halfing cat had its claw held out but couldn't slash down, because a look of confusion could be seen on its expression, now that it was close enough, it could smell a familiar scent and it was coming from none other than Sophia, at first it was confused but soon as if realization had dawned it.
The zombie halfling cat felt a sense of familiarity from the scent, as the light shone on both Sophia and the zombie halfing cat, Sophia's slightly tired expression could be seen more visibly, as she looked at Bernard she could see the familiar clothes that he always wore that was now torn apart, and the shriveled look on his expression that looks like both a cat and a human.
Tears could be seen brewing inside of her eyes, as she stared at him in his abomination form although he looked hideous but to her, it was the most unique and beautiful face she had ever seen, the abomination in front of her felt she was familiar but then it had no idea who she was so it continued to stare at her with curiosity written all over its expression.
Even though it didn't really look exactly like the Bernard she once knew, she could still see similarities when she looked closely. As she looked at him, she didn't know what happened to him to make Bernard turn into his abomination form, but she felt he had been wounded terribly or had encountered a dangerous situation that he had no choice but to transform into an abomination in order to fight it.
"What are you doing fucking bitch, kill the damn creature if you wouldn't do it then just let me do it!"Just then Sophia could hear Melissa's hoarse voice screaming at her, as she crawled out of the rumbles at this moment she suddenly realize the creature in front of her might not really be a demon beast, but something else entirely and even more likely a human that had turned into a beast or was also possessed by a strong demon beast.
When she realized this she couldn't help but glare at both Sophia and the creature with strange glimmer in her eyes, it was needless to say if she let the creature go or didn't use this chance to kill it now her life would definitely be in danger, especially when she had discovered the creature was related to Sophia, she wouldn't allow it to leave and would use the opportunity where they were staring at each other like some fucking love dumbstruck birds to kill it.
As she was thinking she began to channel her powers, sending her strings to attach themselves to different metals shards, Melissa then use her powers to crumble them up to form what would be a spear, as she looked at the creature she couldn't help but grin to herself, this time as she lifted the spear she aimed straight for the heart of the creature, aiming for the head wouldn't kill it so she aimed at the heart where even a strong demon beast could die and fired it towards the creature. pan(da-n0vel.c)om
The moment it left her fingertips, it flew straight at the creature and stabbed it right in its chest. Sophia had her eyes wide open in shock as she watched the spear pierce right into his chest, it couldn't help but let out a loud screeching sound the moment it was stabbed.
"No!"
Sophia high pitch scream could be heard, when she saw the pierce sticking out from Bernard's chest, it was just like back then when the second-year student had stabbed him in his chest, with her eyes now completely red Sophia turned her head to glare at Melissa as she did she could see the demon beast smiling and grinning from ear to ear.
For a moment she thought her life would be over when she saw how close Sophia and the creature were, thankfully, they had been so distracted that they didn't realize she had completely recovered from the goddamn creature beast bomb, she couldn't help but open her mouth to say something as she looked back at Sophia who was currently glaring at her."Shouldn't you be thanking me, for helping y.."
Those words had just left her mouth when she saw the creature that was close to Sophia begin to shatter right in front of her eyes. However, when she saw this there wasn't a trace of joy that could be seen on her expression, Melissa had a look of complete shock on her expression, as she felt a cold shiver run down her spine along with a gust of cold wind that had appeared behind her.
"NOOOOOO!"
Melissa shouted at the top of her lungs, as she turned her head to look behind her, but then due to the fact she didn't have the time to get rid of the paralysis effect before and also had not completely recovered from the creature's non-stop attacks she wasn't able to react on time.
What's more, when she threw that spear at Bernard, although she had been able to hit it but then before it could pierce right into the creature's flesh, it was fully stopped by the turtle-hardening bloodline and then it had used Dash a moment later.
Seeing the creature arrive behind her, Melissa felt her soul left her body at that moment, she wanted to use her powers to attack the creature from behind but she was too slow, not only were strings not strong enough to do anything to the creature but when she looked down at her body she couldn't help but have a look of confusion on her expression and wonder if she was the one seeing things or it was just her imagination.
She could see red blood dripping down, but then she was sure the blood did not belong to the creature that was attacking, and neither did it belonged to Sophia as well because she could see she was completely fine, which meant it belonged to her but then she couldn't understand when she was injured or when the creature had even gotten so close to her and to the point of getting wounded by it.
When she looked again, she could see she was flying. What's more, she was quickly getting further away from her original position. Melissa felt like she couldn't make sense of what was happening, and as she forced herself to look more.
She couldn't help but become shocked at this moment. She could see her neck was currently between the fangs of the creature, realization finally dawned upon her that she hadn't been flying all along, rather her upper half had been detached from her lower half when the creature had attacked her.
Melissa had a dumbstruck expression, as she finally realized what was happening she couldn't help but smile to herself mockingly, gradually her consciousness began to become dull, after ripping the upper half of Melissa the zombie halfling cat, quickly disappear inside the darkness in the surrounding with its meal between its fangs, before it completely hid itself in the darkness it couldn't help but look turn its head to look at Sophia for a brief moment before crawling away.𝘧𝓇𝒆𝗲𝓌𝙚𝙗𝓷o𝘷𝒆𝘭.𝐜𝚘𝒎
