Fight!

"I knew that you would say that." Tara had a solemn expression on her face as she slowly weaved hand signs. "Your ego would never allow you to see a decision you took as the wrong one. So I hope for you to experience defeat…

"I will take any punishment if we survive this place but right now, your betterment is what I seek and I will stop at nothing… to achieve my goal."

Boom

A tunnel appeared behind Tara and out of it, a slug slowly trudged out.

The moment its body touched the earth, a sizzling sound was heard followed by a thick vapor rising from the ground.

Max, Cedric, and Laura were sensible enough to notice the slug's attribute with a single glance, especially since it was wearing it like a second skin.

"Acid."

Elena grimaced. "Fine then. I will accept your challenge."

Whoosh

With a thought, Will Assimilation was activated.

Elena's aura turned even more chilly as sparkly blue markings appeared on her face, making her into an ice beauty.
