FWOOSH!!!

The Huge worm arm of Elvira attacked Sheng Ming and Ais.

BANG!!!!

They jumped away as the ground where they were standing was destroyed. They both narrowed their witnessing the power current Elvira possessed.

'Ais: Her strength is almost reaching Level 6.'

'Sheng Ming: This is going to be tricky. The good thing is that her speed is still Level 4. Otherwise, it would have been difficult for us to dodge that.'

Nevertheless, the shockwave from that attack still hit both in the next second.

'Ais: Kuh.'

'Sheng Ming: Ugh.'

Both hurriedly used their power and stabilized themselves.

THUD!!!

Sheng Ming: Little Sister, we must go all out.

Ais: Ok.

Ais also understood the gravity of the situation. She held her azure Lambent-Light in front and closed her eyes. Elvira had no intention of letting Ais have some free time. Another arm came out of her body and launched towards Ais. The arm grabbed Ais and countless worms started to entangle her. But in the next second...............

'Ais: Tempestas-Occidere.'

BOOM!!!!!!!!!!

WAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!

HOWL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A huge tornado of black winds erupted out of Ais and destroyed that arm.

Elvira: Wha----

Elvira was shocked witnessing this. Ais was standing in the middle of the tornado and was looking at Elvira with her emotionless eyes. However, that was not all.

SHINE!!!

A green light came from the other side. When Elvira looked at there, she became shocked again. Sheng Ming was standing in front, and a huge tree of life was behind her. That amount of life energy it was releasing was so much that Elvira felt disgusted.

Zombies are dead people. So, in a way they have death energy completely opposite of life. Both energies hate each other like fire and water. That's the reason for this.

Goudou!!!! Goudou!!!!

...…

...

…

BANG!!!!

BANG!!!

...

…

Countless roots came out of the ground and joined together. Soon, many Treants were born. They all looked at Elvira menacingly. Since they were made with life energy, they of course also hate Elvira.

Sheng Ming: Go.

At Sheng Ming command, all the treants rushed at Elvira. On the other hand, Elvira didn't get intimidated witnessing this. On the contrary, she just laughed.

Elvira: Hahaha. Do you really think these wooden puppets can stop me?

Sheng Ming didn't reply to her provocation.

Elvira: Hmph.

Snorting, Elvira waved her arm and attacked the upcoming treant.

FWOOSH!!!

BOOM!!!!!!!!!

The upper half of that Treant got destroyed easily and it died. Next, she raised her leg and slammed at the next treant.

BOOM!!!

With this another one died. But the quantity of the treants were too much. Even though Elvira destroyed some of them, many still reached her and attacked.

THWCH!!!

BANG!!!!

The target of these treants were the red hearts all around Elvira's body. With time, they destroyed many of them while Elvira also destroyed many treanst.

Elvira: HOW DARE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Elvira shouted and in the next second, many arms shot out of Elvira's body in all directions.

FWOOOSH!!!!!!!!!!

...…

...

…

BOOM!!!!!

...

…

Sheng Ming: Hmm?

An attack also came towards Sheng Ming. She hurriedly orders some roots to defend. The roots came out of the ground and made a wall to protect her. However, she underestimated the power of the arm.

BANG!!!!!!!!!!

BOOM!!!!!!!!

Sheng Ming: Wha----

BAM!!!!!!!!!!!

Sheng Ming: Kuh!!!!

That arm destroyed Sheng Ming's defense and hit her when she had least expected.

FWOOS!!!!!!!!!!

BANG!!!!

...

…

Sheng Ming hit many trees and rocks behind before embedding into a huge boulder.

Sheng Ming: *cough* *cough* I let my guard down. *cough* *cough* To think she hid her main arm between other arms. *cough* *cough*

Yes, that's exactly what Elvira did. Her target was Sheng Ming all along. Because she knew she was main controller of these Treants. She showed that she was launching a desperate attack out of frustration but in truth hid her real attack.

Sheng Ming body was now completely drenched in her own blood. After all, she took a full blunt of Elvira's attack. The good thing was that her garb reduced a lot of the damage and because of life energy, her body had already started to heal. Still, she needed a minute to heal completely.

On the battlefield, all the treants had been destroyed from those arms. Elvira turned her attention to Sheng Ming and said in a mocking tone.

Elvira: I am sure you would have never expected that.

Sheng Ming: To tell you the truth, yeah, I didn't. *cough* *cough* I really never thought that a worm like you *cough* *cough* and have brain for strategy.

Sheng Ming coughed some more blood after replying.

BOOM!!!

...

…

Elvira: That's the problem of you humans. You always thought of themselves as superior. But in truth, you all are just an inferior race.

BOOM!!!

...

…

Saying this, Elvira continued walking towards Sheng Ming, as if to end her. Still, Sheng Ming didn't show any nervousness or panic expression on her face. On the contrary, she showed a smile before speaking.

Sheng Ming: Then I wonder how you will feel to be defeated by such an inferior race.

Elvira: Huh?

Elvira became confused and took the next step. And when she did so...…

FWOOSH!!!!!!!!!!

FWOOSH!!!!!!!!

...

…

BANG!!!

BANG!!!!

...

…

Many roots came out of the ground and penetrated through Elvira foot and entered inside her body. These roots also destroyed many hearts before entangling themselves all around Elvira preventing her from moving.

Elvira: YOU.

Sheng Ming: Who said you can't attack while being injured?

CRACK!!

Then slowly by slowly, Sheng Ming pulled herself out of the boulder. By now almost 70% of her injuries have been healed. Still, she didn't appear very happy. Why? Because creating treants and controlling them took a lot of magic. Healing heavy injuries also required a lot of magic. If she was at her peak, this wouldn't be a problem. But not this time. Only 20% of her magic was left now.

'Sheng Ming: Oh well. Still, my treants and roots all together successfully destroyed 40% of the hearts. Only 60% more to go. If it was another time, I might have some issues. But not this time. Why? Because I am not alone.'

WAIL!!!!!!!!!!!

BANG!!!!!!!!!!!

As if to answer her, a huge black tornado struck Elvira who was still bound by the root.

Elvira: Argh!!!!!!!

The azure Lambent-Light struck inside the Elvira. As the worms tried to attack Ais, the black wind around her destroyed them. She grabbed the handle of his sword and pushed it even deeper inside.

'Ais: Take this.'

Next, Ais released all her black winds inside Elvira's body.

WAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHIZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BOOM!!!!

Many worms and hearts were destroyed just like this.

Elvira: ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ignoring her painful scream, Ais kept on going.

BOOM!!!!!

...…

...

…

This kept on happening for some time before Ais noticed something.

Sheng Ming: Little Sister.

Hearing Sheng Ming call, Ais jumped away and returned to Sheng Ming's side.

Sheng Ming: You need to perverse your remaining magic.

Ais: Mn.

Nodded Ais before the black winds around them dispersed and "Arielle" was reactivated.

Sheng Ming: You must have realized why I stopped.

Ais: Yes.

'Ais: "Tempestas-Occidere" and the last attack cost me almost 90% of the magic. With the last attack I destroyed another 40% of the hearts. Only 20% are left. I was planning on ending this, but Elvira started using her worms to protect the remaining hearts. She must have also realized that I can't use that much power of mine for too long. That's why she was sacrificing her worms to delay me. So, even if I have used my remaining magic, barely 2% to 3% more worms would have been destroyed.'

Next, she narrowed her eyes and looked at Elvira who returned to her full form in a matter of seconds.

'Ais: Once I had used up my remaining magic, I won't even be able to stay at "Enhanced Mode". Let alone "Arielle" or "Tempestas-Occidere". That time my strength would have dropped to mere max Level 1. I would be nothing in front of Level 6 Elvira.'

Sheng Ming: Destroying the remaining hearts will be quite a challenge for us now. Since Elvira will protect them very carefully now.

Ais: Um.

THWCH!!!

...

…

The roots holding the Elvira stretched and broke one-by-one as she rose her giant body again.

BOOM!!!

Finally, she stood up again. However, this time all the remaining hearts were completely hidden beneath many layers of worms. Only a slight red light could be seen where they could guess hearts were hidden.

<< Ais: Misdreavus, be ready. You need to move now. >>

<< Misdreavus: Roger. >>
