Chapter 1276 Overwhelming The Evil Queen!
Chapter 1276 Overwhelming The Evil Queen!
-----
Sapphire acted at long last, utilizing a combination of her Stigma's powers with her own unique magic and her divinity. Since she was a young mermaid that she was born with a special type of Magic Element, the Element of Sealing. This was one of her strongest weapons, and she had used this power to seal even the Deep One back then, with the aid of Aquarius' magic powers.
The barrier she created absorbed the magic power unleashed by the Breath Attack from Queen Anastasia, and quickly reinforced the barrier even more. Her magic was powerful, but it took her some time to conjure it, as it was much more complex and complicated than normal magic.
"Well, so what if you can block this?! Can you block this then?!" Laughed Queen Anastasia, raising her two long black colored spears and unleashing a barrage of devastating attacks, while the sea snake jaws started biting through the barrier!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CRAAASH! CRAAASH!
A Magic Sealing Barrier was naturally not that good at defending against actual physical blows, as it quickly started to shatter and crumble into pieces!
Crack, crack… CRASH!
However, as the barrier shattered, Tisha and Yuki jumped right into action, attacking the jaws and head of Anastasia's Sea Snake body with powerful, devastating blows.
"[Divine Ice Blade Arts]: [Frost Blade Storm]!"
"[White Tiger's Heavenly Claws and Jaws]!"
A storm of countless blades made of frost and giant claws and jaws made of light attacked the Queen, tearing apart her entire faces scales and inflicting deep wounds upon her aberrant self! Her body immediately started squirming like a worm, pushing to the back and making her torso hit the ceiling strongly.
CLAAASH! CLAAASH! CRAAASH!
"AAAGGH…!" Anastasia clumsily groaned in fury, only to notice countless roots and branches growing across her body once more, beginning to drain her Vitality and Mana!
"[Divine Nature Spirit Magic]: [Draining Spirit Roots]!"
FLUOOOSH!
"UUAAAAGGH! N-NO… M-MY POWER…!"
Anastasia began to feel incredibly weakened. The Deep One within her body panicking at the same time as his own powers were weakening as well!
"S-Stop! STOOOP!"
The Queen roared with utmost fury, as her entire body started to crumble apart by Yuki and Tisha's constant attacks. Her entire body released black blood and black smoke everywhere, as if it was made of energy more than flesh.
"RAAAAH!" Tisha furiously administrated a series of slashes using her massive divine frost sword, freezing through the wounds inflicted upon the gigantic body of the Queen.
SLAASH! SLAASH! SLAASH! SLAAASH!
"ORRAAAH!" Yuki did the same, swinging her claws fiercely while imbuing deadly poison that her claws naturally secreted into the wounds, weakening her even further.
CLASH! CLASH! CLAASH! CLAAASH!
"Nnnggh…! S-Stop!!!" The Queen panicked, never having gone through such hardships, she started fighting back by swinging her two spears, only to clumsily miss most hits as Yuki and Tisha were extremely experienced fighters, her clumsy attacks lacked finesse and mastery, and were easy to predict.
"You're too slow, old hag!" Yuki mocked her.
"I thought you were stronger, but the only thing you do is rely on this transformation! You are not even a fighter!" Tisha mocked her as well.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLAAASH!
The attacks continued falling above her, as Queen Anastasia roared in fury, her powers started beginning to swell more and more, as her long tail started mutating, growing a second sea snake-like head, and catching Sapphire and Pekora off-guard!
"RAAAAHHH!!! YOU…!"
Her second head opened its sharp jaws, about to devour both in a single bite. However, Sapphire's Familiar, the Abyssal Shark Tyrant acted, emerging from her shadows, and pushing forwards, covering everything with shadow tentacles and wrapping them around Anastasia's tail!
"ROOOAARRR!"
The giant Abyssal Shark Tyrant opened its dreadful jaws and started nibbling over the tail, pushing it down into the floor ferociously.
CLAAAASH!
As everyone was fighting with everything they had to stop the Queen's movements and attacks, Sapphire finally finished her incantation, focusing her mind and divinity into the spell as a giant, gray-colored magic circle emerged in front of her.
"It's over, Anastasia! [Divine Sealing Magic]: [Divinity Sealing Chains]!"
FLAAASH!
From the giant gray colored magic circle, countless chains made of gray, semi-transparent energy emerged one after the other, completely wrapping around the Queen's entire monstrous body, and quickly forcing her transformation to come to a halt!
POOOF!
The darkness dissipated as her half-naked body fell over the floor, the Stigma over her body beginning to glow brightly as it continuously attempted to transform her again. However, these powerful chains which Sapphire had made using a magic similar to the one that sealed the Deep One had, were powerful enough to hold her in place.
"T-These damned Chains! AAAARRGH!" The Deep One roared in frustration, as the Queen was suddenly surrounded by Yuki, Tisha, Pekora, and Sapphire.
"Should we kill her now?" Yuki wondered, pointing her claws at her neck.
"No! If you kill her, the Deep One's Soul Fragment contained within her Stigma will be freed." Said Sapphire. "We need to do the Soul Hacking that Kate did with me to free her from his control."
"Then we'll have to wait." Tisha sighed. "Though, where's the- Huh?!"
"Hehe… I guess you leave me no option…" The Queen smiled manically, suddenly holding the Blue Orb Fragment in her teeth, and swallowing it.
The Blue Orb Fragment, which was deep black due to being completely infested with the Deep One's powers, was swallowed by her, and then immediately generated a reaction in her entire body, as a dark light emanated from her skin, shattering the Divine Sealing Chains!
FLAAAAAASH!
Crack… crack… CRAAASH!
The shockwave was so powerful it sent everyone flying away, landing on the walls behind them with loud impact sounds…
"N-No! She swallowed that thing?!" Sapphire panicked. "We need to stop her! Ungh…!"
Sapphire quickly realized something was wrong, her Stigma was beginning to feel disrupted and weakened by the growing and darker presence of the Queen, she couldn't even exert her magical power properly anymore!
"Hahaha… HAHAHAHA!"
Anastasia's entire body transformed once more, to a more refined, and powerful form due to the mutation caused by the Blue Orb Fragment.
