Chapter 652 Slaying Krakens Easily
Chapter 652 Slaying Krakens Easily
?
The battlefield is in chaos; death and destruction are everywhere, the death of the Krakens and destruction of their bodies in the most brutal ways possible.
And Lucien's wives put on a show about teamwork, killing the Krakens faster than the Mermaid and Naga's armies.
Everyone is doing their best, and it consumes a lot of them both physically and mentally; and although everyone is inevitably pushing their bodies toward the limits, various influences, mainly from Lucien and the Sins, keep everyone inspired.
"KEEP ATTACKING!!" Ramla shouts to the Mermaid troops in an excited tone as she brandishes her sword toward a giant Kraken, slashing the creature's tentacles while other soldiers cast spells at Its head.
"THEY CAN'T TAKE US DOWN!!" It is possible to see a smile on Ramla's lips even with her body covered in disgusting Kraken fluids.
It is undeniable that she is happy.
That's still a brutal attack, and Mermaids' lives are in danger; but Nea is with them, and now everything looks different as they also have the support of Claire, Eve, and Lucien. The situation still looks dangerous, but Ramla can't help but see that as the beginning of something great rather than bad.
"She's right, stay strong!! The enemy can't keep this offensive forever!!" Saria attacks that Kraken to help Ramla and her group.
*ROOOOOAARR!!!" The creature goes into a frenzied state when it takes too much damage, surprising the girls with Its strength.
Krakens shouldn't have such an ability, but most of them seem to have gone through sinister experiments, which changed their bodies in unpredictable ways.
"Princess!!" Ramla becomes concerned for Saria's safety when the Kraken counterattacks her.
The creature ignores the Mermaids' attacks and launches all remaining tentacles towards Saria. She doesn't think twice about activating a powerful, blue oval-shaped barrier around her body.
*BAM* *CRRRACK*
Saria manages to block that attack, but a Kraken's strength is something beyond her power, and cracks appear throughout her barrier. The creature quickly prepares to attack again, ignoring all of the other Mermaids' attacks, and Saria gets really concerned.
[Damn!!!] The Kraken's movements are very fast, and Saria barely has time to think about how to react.
The creature attacks with its various tentacles.
*Whoosh* *Whoosh* *Whoosh* *Whoosh*
But Its tentacles are cut by dozens of golden blades that come from behind Saria; she looks in that direction and sees Claire flying on top of a large golden blade, holding her soul weapon, a golden sword, and Greed behind her, creating the blades that just saved her life.
Claire looks so beautiful and radiant at that moment, and she doesn't waste a second before flying toward the Kraken, launching more golden blades toward the creature. She couldn't face an enemy of that power level alone, but along with those Mermaids, that Kraken doesn't stand a chance.
*BAM* *BAM* *BAM* *BAM* *BAM*
Greed bombards the creature with explosive golden blades, and Claire jumps on its head, spiking her sword into the Kraken's eye and forcing her golden energy inside Its body.
The badly injured Kraken can't defend itself from that incredible energy and has its body exploded from the inside out.
*BOOOOOOM*
Blood and pieces of the Kraken fly everywhere as the Mermaids excitedly celebrate the defeat of such a vile enemy. Amidst the rain of bowels, Claire looks at Saria and smiles.
"Thank you!" Saria smiles at Claire too, and she can't help but think about how similar she is to Lucien; they even have similar energies, even if that is only in the visual.
"You don't need to thank me, my sist-" Claire starts to speak in a gentle tone, but then her face gets worried when Greed exclaims something in her mind.
'Above us!!!' Greed warns Claire about a Kraken falling from a portal right above them, but the creature falls too fast and already launches a furious attack on Saria as if it knows who she is.
"Shit!!!" Greed curses while using all her energy to create as many golden blades as possible to attack that Kraken.
But that Kraken is not injured like the previous one and even seems to be much stronger, which makes the situation very bad for Greed, Claire, and Saria.
Greed doesn't mind her body being destroyed as she can just create another one, and she can also see that the Kraken is strangely focused on Saria, which could give Claire room to escape. But Greed knows Claire wouldn't do that, and that's why she tries so hard to provide both girls with a chance to run away.
"RUN!!!" She yells at Claire and Saria as she lunges towards the Kraken along with her golden blades.
*BAM* *BAM* *BAM* *BAM* *BAM*
Greed's attacks are ineffective, and the Kraken launches Its tentacles toward Saria before she and Claire can escape. Everything happens very quickly, and Greed can almost see the Mermaid Princess being hit by the creature and taking Claire along with her.
But then red ropes appear around the Kraken's tentacles, stopping them in midair. Greed is shocked to recognize those ropes as Lust's whip, and she almost doesn't believe it but the purple glow around it makes it clear that it's her soul weapon extended hundreds of meters.
Greed looks up and sees Lust in the air as she holds the handle of her whip with both hands; The tense expression on her face makes it clear that she is also using her power to the fullest as she tries so hard to contain the creature's tentacles for a few seconds.
"Lucien is already coming, don't keep standing there like a fucking dead wall!!" Lust yells at Greed.
At the same time, less than half a mile away from there, Lucien faces two Krakens at the same time, which is not an easy task even for him. Amelia is helping him as best she can, but her power is limited, and all she can do is divert the attention of one of the Krakens by teleporting around the creature.
He almost teleported to Claire and Saria's side when he heard Greed's scream, but Lust said she could hold the creature for a few seconds, giving him time to think about what to do.
Lucien manages to kill one of the Krakens, but the other is unharmed, and if he leaves it alone, the creature will kill the group of Mermaids that Lucien went to protect there, leaving him with a difficult decision.
He knows that a second could be the difference between life and death for those Mermaids or Claire and Saria. Claire and Saria probably have a better chance as Greed and Lust are on their side, but Lucien can't risk the lives of those he loves most.
When he gets in such a tense situation, his wives feel that, and one of them immediately responds to his silent cry for help.
*SCREEEEEE*
A gigantic black crow appears between the Kraken and that group of Mermaids; the bird is made entirely of black feathers that fly towards the Kraken like a rain of magic arrows, leaving behind a beautiful lady with an elegant black katana in her hands.
"Olivia!" Lucien can't help but smile, seeing how powerful Olivia is. He has so much confidence in her skills that he doesn't think twice about teleporting close to Claire and Saria, leaving that Kraken to Olivia alone.
But Lucien's wives will hardly be alone when having so many sisters. As Lucien teleports away, another charming figure teleports to Olivia's side.
With her black wings lightly flapping, Helena smiles at her sister and receives a smile in return before they both launch their attacks against that Kraken.
On another part of the battlefield, Lucien arrives at Lust's side just as the Kraken breaks free from her whip. Saria, Claire, and Greed are attacking the creature, but that Kraken seems much more powerful than the others and determined to kill the Mermaid Princess.
Lucien quickly stands between the creature and Saria, creating a barrier of demonic energy along with Lust to protect the girls.
"What's wrong with this monster?!?!" Claire thinks aloud.
ยท??m "Probably that Siren managed to put a precise objective in Its mind..." Lust comments.
"Is it me?" Saria asks in a concerned tone.
While holding up his barrier as a shield, Lucien looks back and smiles at Saria. "If it's you, they'll fail no matter how hard they try."
Saria can't help but smile as she feels Lucien's determination to protect her. His feelings are so powerful that they seem tangible.
Even in that situation, Lucien manages to create a romantic mood with Saria so easily and it makes Claire uncomfortable. She can't help but wish she could protect Saria alone as well as receive her brother's attention.
Claire shakes her head, trying to get that jealousy out of her heart, but then she notices Greed looking at Lucien with bright-golden eyes of desire, which makes her realize that her Sin is far more dangerous than the gentle Mermaid Princess.
As the situation becomes tense between the girls and Sins, the Kraken feels ignored, and the surrounding Mermaids find it bizarre.
"What the hell is going on???"
