Chapter 58 - Attack (3)

This particular battlefield was a chaotic storm of wind, lightning, and fire. And Alicia stood at the center of it all, her storm powers in full effect.

Dark clouds gathered overhead, lightning crackling through the air as she faced off against Jinrai, the wolf-like beastman.

His claws were extended, and his eyes were glowing with a feral intensity as he prepared to attack.

Alicia smirked, her expression filled with disdain. "You really think you can take me on, doggy?" she taunted, her voice dripping with mockery. "Even though you're nothing but a mangy mutt."

Hearing that Jinrai growled, his claws slashing through the air as he lunged at her.

Alicia responded by summoning a gust of wind, the force of it sending him flying backward.

He landed on his feet, his claws digging into the ground as he skidded to a stop.

"You're all the same," Alicia said, her tone cold and cruel. "Beastmen, no Fantasians as a whole—pathetic creatures who think they're better than us. Who think we're equal. But the truth is, you're nothing. Just animals pretending to be civilized."

Jinrai's eyes narrowed, his growl deepening as he charged at her again.

This time, he used his mana to enhance his speed, his movements becoming a blur.

Alicia raised her hand, summoning a bolt of lightning that struck the ground in front of him, forcing him to dodge.

"Too slow," she said, her smirk widening. "At this rate you won't even amount to a challenge."

Jinrai's frustration grew as Alicia taunted him and the fight dragged on with no way to reach her.

Her storm powers were relentless, and her control over them, impeccable.

The controlled wind and lightning made it almost impossible for him to get close.

He tried using his claws to deflect her attacks, but the sheer force of her powers was just overwhelming.

Alicia, meanwhile, was enjoying herself. She continued to taunt him, her insults becoming more personal and cruel.

"Your kind doesn't belong in this world," she said, her voice cold. "You're nothing but savages. The only reason you're still alive is because we allow it."

Jinrai roared, his claws slashing through the air as he tried to close the distance between them.

Alicia responded by summoning a tornado, the wind swirling around her as she launched it at him.

Jinrai was caught in the vortex, his body spinning out of control before he was thrown to the ground with enough force to crack it.

BOOM

"Pathetic," Alicia said, her tone filled with disgust. "You're not even worth my time."

Jinrai struggled to his feet, his body battered but his resolve unbroken.

He reached into his space ring, pulling out a massive greatsword.

The weapon was almost as tall as he was, its blade gleaming with mana. He gripped it tightly, his eyes locking onto Alicia.

"You're going to regret this. I'll make you regret this," he growled, his voice low and menacing.

Alicia raised an eyebrow, her smirk never wavering. "Oh, you've got a big sword now? How cute. But I doubt it's going to save you. Not from me at least. "

Jinrai charged at her, his greatsword slashing through the air with incredible force.

Alicia dodged quite easily, her movements fluid and precise.

She then summoned a bolt of lightning, the electricity arcing toward Jinrai.

He blocked it with his sword, the impact sending a shockwave through the ground.

BOOM

"You're stronger than I thought," Alicia admitted, her tone still mocking. "But still, you're really nothing compared to me."

Alicia reached into her own compartment, pulling out a pair of mechanical fans.

The weapons were sleek and had an air of deadliness, their blades spinning with a faint hum. She twirled them in her hands, her smirk widening as she faced Jinrai.

"Let's see how you handle this," she said, her voice filled with malice.

The fight escalated as Alicia used her fans to deflect Jinrai's attacks, the blades spinning with incredible speed.

She combined her storm powers with her weapons, creating a deadly combination of wind, lightning, and razor-sharp blades.

With this, Jinrai struggled to keep up, as his greatsword was barely able to block her attacks.

"You know, you're really nothing but a beast," Alicia said, her voice cold and cruel. "And beasts belong in cages."

Jinrai roared, his frustration boiling over as he swung his greatsword with all his might.

Alicia dodged, her fans slashing through the air as she countered with a series of rapid strikes.

The blades cut through Jinrai's skin, drawing blood.

And the fight reached its climax with Alicia growing tired of it and summoning her strongest attack.

The sky darkened, the clouds swirling ominously as lightning crackled through the air. Jinrai looked up, his eyes widening in fear as he realized what was coming.

"This is it," Alicia said, her voice filled with malice. "This is what happens when a lesser like you dares to point their blade at me. Now die."

She raised her hands, the storm gathering around her as she unleashed a massive bolt of lightning.

The electricity arced toward Jinrai, the force of it incinerating everything in its path.

Jinrai tried to block it with his greatsword, but the sheer power of the attack was too much.

The blade shattered, and Jinrai was engulfed in the lightning.

BOOM

When the smoke cleared, Jinrai was on the ground, his body charred and his pulse non existent.

Alicia stood over him, her fans spinning lazily in her hands. She leaned down, her smirk widening as she looked into his eyes.

"This is what I'll do to the rest of your kind," she said, her voice cold and cruel. "You're nothing but animals, and rebellious animals should be put down."

With that, she turned and walked away, leaving Jinrai's broken body behind.
