Chapter 117.2 - Ice Princess Regrets Immensely (part 2)

If not for being forced, she wouldn't have switched to combat mode and clashed head-on with the Destruction Demon Lord.

Even if this card could compensate for her deficiency in magical attributes, she couldn't directly confront this monster that fully countered her.

She could only fight desperately with the Destruction Demon Lord for it would otherwise escape.

Endless ice blocks continued to emerge within the ice layer. They floated in mid-air like ghosts.

Under Ice Princess's command, those variously shaped giant ice blocks immediately spun rapidly. Mixed with the cold airflow, they formed a surging ice storm.

In the vortex, those ice blocks turned into countless ice blades sweeping towards the Destruction Demon Lord!

The Destruction Demon Lord finally lowered its body.

It roared unwillingly. Its crimson wings unfolded behind, and it spewed flames backward. In an instant, the flames formed a wall of fire in front of it!

Within the ice storm, countless ice blades couldn't surpass the flames and melted on their own.

The Destruction Demon Lord howled again and used a sonic attack.

Under the oscillation of the sound, Ice Princess felt like she was hit hard. Her face changed drastically.

She quickly raised her hand and activated a spell card. A transparent shield-like massive ice barrier appeared in front of her. It filtered out most of the Destruction Demon Lord's sonic attacks.Otherwise, at this distance, such an attack could have directly shattered her!

Her magical ice barrier blocked the majority of the damage, even though she stood at the forefront of the opponent's attack.

The demon's roar persisted.

Ice Princess had already coughed up blood.

Continuing to clash head-on, even if she could take the Destruction Demon Lord's first life, she would find it challenging to withstand the destruction brought by its resurrection.

She truly couldn't deal with this Destruction Demon Lord.

Ice Princess smiled bitterly and took out a slightly worn-out card.

Even though this card bore the marks of time, it couldn't conceal its orange halo.

A staff entwined with silver chains appeared in Ice Princess's hand.

[Starfield Shackles]

[Category: Equipment Card]

[Rarity: Orange Epic]

[Tier: 6]

[Effect: Can utilize the power of the stars to impose a supergravity effect on the enemy, suppressing their actions. During its special effect period, the user will experience an enormous burden and continuously consume mana.]

[Note: Ice Princess's treasure.]

She raised her hand, pointing towards the distant sky, seemingly silently reciting something.

"Mama, help me."

In an instant, the sky darkened. The sunlight was forcibly suppressed.

As if entering night in the blink of an eye, countless stars appeared in the sky.

Under the radiance of the stars, Ice Princess seemed to emit a sacred and immaculate brilliance.

In the midst of wand swings, several points of starlight flickered across the sky.

The faint glow pressed down, enveloping the Destruction Demon Lord! It was as if an invisible mountain was weighing down on it.

The movements of the Destruction Demon Lord's entire body became sluggish.

An indescribable immense pressure shrouded its entire being, making it very uncomfortable. It flapped its wings a few times, but couldn't move forward any further.

Ice Princess's face had turned painfully pale, almost transparent.

But her last-ditch effort succeeded.

While this Destruction Demon Lord couldn't be frozen, stunned, or paralyzed — meaning it was immune to crowd control effects that induced abnormal states — it could still be restricted through physical means.

For example, being restrained by ice chains or being pressed down by gravity.

However, the attributes of this Destruction Demon Lord were just too powerful. Its pressure still surged in waves!

The Destruction Demon Lord and the Tristin City were less than two kilometers away.

But finally, it came to a stop. It entered into a battle of attrition with the Ice Princess.

Ice Princess's entire body was soaked in sweat. She felt as if her body was about to be torn apart. If this continued, cracks might appear on her skin at any moment.

Yet, this pain did not weaken her courage in battle in the slightest. Her clear and resolute eyes still showed a fearless determination.

Although her life was hanging by a thread, she refused to retreat.

The other tier 8 powerhouses from the Norton Kingdom were on their way to assist. As long as she held on a little longer, reinforcements would surely arrive. As soon as any tier 8 arrived, they had a chance to turn the tide.

Before that, even if she had to die standing, she had to block the Destruction Demon Lord. If she took a step back, it would result in a massacre, with corpses everywhere and devastation to all living beings.

Behind her was the entire Tristin City that needed her protection.

She loved Tristin City.

She loved the people she had been with day and night.

Despite having elven blood and inheriting the elves’ long lifespan, she was raised by a human mother.

She had a human heart and considered herself more human than elf.

From her earliest memories, she found human life to be so fleeting. The people around her seemed to experience time at a different pace than her.

Repeated farewells and losses. It gradually made her unwilling to have too much interaction with people.

Rather than deeply investing emotions and interacting with people, she preferred brief exchanges, one encounter at a time.

Over time, she developed social anxiety. It was unknown when it began but she started to fear talking to others.

Although she always wore a poker face, deep down she felt anxious when talking to people.

For example, the last time that tier 3 quasi-special class card maker came to see her, she was extremely nervous.

Ice Princess remembered he told a bunch of jokes trying to cheer her up.

She was not good at dealing with people who had such quirky and nonsensical thoughts.

As a result, her nervousness increased.

Gradually, she felt unable to get along with this person and, without thinking, she instinctively said the words "go out."

Who would have thought that the absurd things he said turned out to be true!

She never considered such an outrageous possibility.

Now she regrets it immensely, but it was already too late.

Even now, Ice Princess was unable to make sense of it.

Why would a tier 3 fellow have such incredible abilities?!
