Her fingers became elongated and her eyes and teeth began dripping blood. She looked like something out of a horror movie. But this was just the result of a forbidden spell.
"Yeeeee!!!!" Liana released an ear-piercing screech that caused the entire cave to shudder. She then looked over at Alaric with a crazy smile.
"Die!!!" She used her finger and swiped down at him, a trail of blood stretched forward and slashed towards Alaric and
—Boom!!!
Even though Alaric blocked with his massive sword, he was still pushed directly to the ground where he formed a small Crater.
The battle had taken a turn.
At the same time, at a particular rock on the side of the battlefield, two combatants stood staring each other down.
One was a plumpy aged man with a goatee, and the other was a bulky man with blonde hair and a heavy suit of amour.
These two were the first elder of the blood serpent clan and Kilian,The sliver Death knight of the tamlin group.
"She has lost this fight" Kilian said with a sly smile while looking in the direction of Liana and Alaric's battle.
"I know" The first elder said with a tone of regret. From the moment she started losing control of the giant serpent, he knew that it was over.
She was already too weak from weeks of being on the run, completely controlling the giant serpent was impossible. But he held hope, unfortunately his hope was dashed immediately Liana activated the forbidden spell.
There was noway she would gain control of the serpent after that, and as for the beating Alaric was receiving. It was only temporary, she couldn't kill him.
"Don't worry, we will keep you in special cells" Kilian responded with a snide remark.
"You couldn't capture me even if you tried." The first elder responded with absolute confidence. If anyone could survive this ordeal, it was definitely him.
"We will see about that" Kilian nodded.

On a side of the battlefield, Leon and Anan were going at it In full force. The battle looked like it was one between two experienced fighters.
But, it was obvious who had the upper hand In his battle. It was Leon.
Anan made a big mistake by allowing this to devolve into a close combat fight. Leon was a dual dagger user, while Anan was, in fact, just a chain user who had mediocre talents in using a short sword.
So with every strike sent towards Leon, he would simply block and use his other dagger to Stab or Slash Anan. Anan's body at this moment riddled with holes and cuts.
—woosh
Leon jumped back and stared at Anan's pathetic stance. Anan thought this was going to be a simple battle where they would simply trade blows, but he was absolutely mistaken.
It wasn't until this close combat exchange that he understood that Leon had been holding back for the longest time. Every single attack from Leon was lethal, aiming at his vital organs.
Leon was truly trying to kill him this time, and there was nothing he could do about it apart from.
" Uncle Alaric Help!!!! He's trying to kill me!!" Anan screamed at the top of his voice, immediately calling the attention of the commander.
"Hmm??" Alaric, who was also in a bad state, looked over at where the voice was coming from and froze.
The figure of the bloodied Anan appeared in his eyes, making his facial expression to turn ugly. Not many people knew this, but In actual fact Anan was his nephew. That's right, they were blood related, so seeing him in this state made him furious.
"And you're still standing there watching this happen? Kill the filthy warlock or else I'll break your mother's soul right now!!"
Alaric turned to Arian, who was casually watching the battle from a far away distance and said. Arian was the reason his little nephew was kidnapped by the filthy Warlocks, and now she wanted to stand by while his other nephew was murdered in cold blood?
Even though he was tied down, he would not let it happen.
"I....." Arian froze upon hearing this. Her mother was in the hands of the Dalriss family. She had taken a large sum of money for her lavish lifestyle from the dalriss family and couldn't pay back, so they imprisoned her soul and made Arian pay back the money by working as a guard.
This was the main reason she was in the tamlin group.
"What are you waiting for???" While blocking another attack from Liana, Alaric screamed at Arian. It was only a matter of time until he won this fight, but he was Afraid that Anan wouldn't last that long.
"I can't..." It wasn't like she didn't want to stop Leon. She just couldn't. In the new contract, Leon asked her not to interfere with his battles with Anan so she couldn't even stop it talkless of killing Leon.
If not, she would die. It was a lose-lose situation for her. Killing Leon would end her life and not doing it would end her mother's life.
Her hands were tied, this was a really tough decision. But it wasn't one she would have to make.
"Fine!! Let her die then" Alaric pulled out a small orb from thin air and
—crackkk!!!
He shattered it...
That orb contained a soul....
This soul was the soul of Arian's mother.....
She wasn't the best of mothers, but she was still her mother.
It broke her usual cold appearance several beads of tears began rolling down her eyes uncontrollably.
All the humiliation she had to endure, all the pain and suffering all was for nothing. All here emotions came rushing out at that exact moment.
"Hmp!! Die alongside your bitch of a mother" Alaric sneered, then sent two dagger - shaped projectiles towards Arian and Leon.
The projectiles flew in a perfect trajectory and directly pierced through Arian, causing her to fall to the floor.
As for the one speeding towards Leon. It was intercepted by a plumby shadow that appeared out of nowhere.
The first elder of the blood serpent clan.
As his figure stood before Leon. He commanded in a calm yet hurried tone.
" take cover kid, we don't have much time"
Leon was the only warlock on this battlefield except for him and Liana. If he couldn't save her, he could at least save him.
