Chapter 492 - Fall Of The Nine Lives
"Fucking demon!!"
Greyman roared as his mana burst out of his body. He then tried to attack Alice but she simply pulled out the spear on his stomach before kicking him towards the three Extermination Realm.
Ugh!!
He spat a mouthful of blood as he looked at the demon with rage in his eyes.
"Why did you trick me?!!"
He roared while circulating his mana around the wound on his stomach to stop the bleeding.
"It's your fault for trying the demon summoning. Any kind of demon would change the contract if they knew that their summoner didn't even know the demon's language so naturally you would be tricked."
Alice said as she waved her spear and the blood on it splattered on the ground. Her expression turned cold as her mana slowly oozed out of her body.
[Heavenly Demon's Aura]!
A heavy and chilly pressure bore down on the four people in front of her. She would kill these four people for trying the demon summoning circle. If she didn't interfere with the summoning, another demon different from her would appear in this world and the possibility of her being discovered was high if that happens.
She tightened her fingers on the spear in her hand and black energy slowly flows through the spear.
Ohm!
The spear in her hand was given to her by Souta. A high-quality red grade spear called Dauntless Frosty Spear. This was several times better than the spear that she used before as it could boost her strength by several times.
"S-She's just an Extermination Realm!! Attack her at the same time!!" Greyman yelled while pointing at Alice.
"B-But..." The other three Extermination Realm tried to say something but Greyman cut their words.
"Don't say anything! She's alone and didn't we talk about it already that we will subdue the demon!!"
The three Extermination Realm had no other choice but to follow Greyman. They released their energy as they charged forward at the same time while brandishing their weapons.
Swoosh!! Swoosh!! Swoosh!
"This fucking demon!!"
Greyman gritted his teeth as he glanced at the wound on his stomach. He didn't expect that this would happen at all but he wasn't afraid of a battle even if it was a demon.
The demon that he summoned was just an Extermination Realm so he had a chance to subdue her. If he worked together with the other three then the possibility of him winning this battle will increase.
...
Alice moved her body from side to side as she swiftly avoided all the attacks of the three people. She was analyzing their battle power at this moment so she haven't launched a single attack.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The three people were getting annoyed as none of their attacks landed on Alice. Despite having an advantage in numbers, they still couldn't land at least one attack and this made them feel uncomfortable.
A bad feeling was slowly brewing in their heart.
Shiing!!
Alice suddenly turned her head to the side and saw a green light. She flapped her wings and in just a second she arrived one hundred meters above the surface.
Swoosh!
She looked down and saw woods burst out of the church. It spread in every direction as pink flowers formed on the branches of the woods.
"A wood attribute...?"
She muttered as the three Extermination Realm once again charged at her. Then, dozens of thick woods shot through the sky. It was moving as if it has a soft body but these woods were thought.
"Let me test the skill of this spear."
Alice said as the energy around the first turned into icy blue. The atmosphere around her turned cold as freezing waves swept out in every direction dropping the temperature by several folds.
Swoosh!!
The three Extermination Realm were just ten meters away from her so she slashed the spear diagonally.
[Trinity Icicle Flash]!!
The freezing aura on the tip of her spear transformed into three vortexes of icy energy. The three vortexes shot a maelstrom of cold energy.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The three Extermination Realm tried to avoid it but they felt that their speed has decreased several times because of the cold energy. In the end, they couldn't avoid the three maelstroms of cold energy.
It landed on their body and it instantly dropped their body temperatures. It was freezing as they saw that some part of their skin has turned into ice.
Hmph!!
Alice wanted to finish them but the woods prevented her from chasing after the three. She raised her spear above her head and used another skill of the spear.
[Daunting Frost Age]!!
The weather inside the black curtain has greatly changed as a hailstorm appeared at Alice's command. It swept out everything and froze all the woods around her.
It was an AOE skill with low damage but have a powerful buff and debuff effect.
"It's time for me to finish you. I'm done analyzing your strength and testing my new weapon."
Alice said as she cracked her neck and layers of flesh coated her body. The flesh turned into a thing skin and armor that boosted her strength.
It's time to add her power so that she could eliminate these four A-rank experts.
The [Daunting Frost Age] was still active and it decreased the combat ability of her four opponents. This was enough for her.
Swoosh!
"She's coming!!"
Greyman shouted as he tried to cast another wood attribute spell. Unfortunately, the moment he casted it the woods quickly turned into ice.
"Is this the power of a demon...?"
It was useless. Everything that he did was useless in front of this terrifying demon that he summoned.
Without enough cold resistance, he wouldn't be able to use his wood attribute. The power of the demon was better than he imagined.
Swoosh!!
Alice appeared in front of the three Extermination Realm. She tightened her grip on her spear before she thrust it forward.
[Sonic Thrust]!!
The other two managed to dodge her spear but the remaining one Extermination Realm was stabbed directly into his neck.
Ugh!
The Extermination Realm slowly lost the luster in his eyes and he died just like that.
It was easy. These A-rank experts were just at the initial stage as they haven't completely liquefied their mana.
The monsters in the living labyrinth were several times stronger than these people. Plus, Alice was using her demon form this time so her strength was several times greater than her normal form.
Swoosh!
She pulled her spear and directly charged at the two Extermination Realm.
Those two had fear in their eyes and they lose their calmness so it was easy to predict their movements. They couldn't even fight back as Alice directly sliced their heads.
"N-No, I can't die like this..."
Greyman turned around when he saw the three Extermination Realm has died in Alice's hands. He realized that he didn't stand a chance against this demon and he could only escape.
Escaping was the right choice but it was too late.
Alice looked at Greyman's figure with cold eyes before she raised her spear. Then, she threw it in his direction.
Swoosh!
The spear created a black line in the sky as it pierced the chest of Greyman.
Greyman paused as he looked down and saw a fist-sized hole on the center of his chest. His face distorted as he tried to turn around but he failed because he lost all the strength in his body.
He fell to the ground and created a pool of blood underneath his body.
"I..."
The life in his eyes disappeared. The leader of the Nine Lives had died today.
Thud!
Alice landed beside Greyman's corpse. She opened her palm and the spear turned into a small marble. The small marble flew into her palm and the blue flames on her body expanded.
It enveloped her body and when it disappeared she was back in her human form.
She placed the marble in her pocket and glanced at the dark curtain. The dark curtain would disappear soon as she settled everything in this place.
"Thanks for this demon summoning I've gained a lot this time..."
Killing four A-rank experts was easy for her. The four A-rank experts weren't weak, it's just that she was too strong for them. If she fought these four people before she entered the living labyrinth a few months ago then she would have a problem dealing with them.
The training in living labyrinth didn't just enhance her combat arts and power level. It also enhanced her abilities, senses, fighting style, and reflexes to a higher level.
It was fruitful and the demon summoning this time was fruitful too.
Alice looked at her palm and slowly gathered her mana.
"I've reached the peak of liquefying realm. All of the energy inside my mana pool are in liquid state. I think I will be able to reach solidifying realm sooner than I expected."
The sacrifices became her strength and it was one of the benefits of demon summoning.
Hmm...?
Alice turned her head as she noticed a faint movement deep inside the rubble.
