Chapter 267: Utter Terror!
-----
Dhuja felt utter terror!
She was almost killed by a blazing magic sword, and she had barely made it!
She was going to get killed soon if she didn't defend herself and found a way out.
She glared behind Frank, as the door where they came from was open.
If she could somehow slip into there and then fly upwards, she should be able to run away!
She was a Rank 4 Peak Stage after all… she should at least be able to do that much!
However, because Gwendolyn was behind her and Frank in front of her, she was surrounded.
Her tamed Monsters were not able to do anything against them, as Cathyl and her family were dealing with them easily, and they were already done to two.
She was fighting against a large group of overpowered Rank 4 Magus that possessed insane Magic Artifact/Weapons…
And even a Rank 5 had somehow negated her teleportation by simply… using his bare hands?!
It was clearly an insane display of amazing might… she didn't even understand what was going on anymore.
But something deep within her told her to survive, her very instincts, deep within her consciousness, the ones she always had since she was a little Lamia girl within the desert, surviving however she could.
She needed to survive!
She wasn't a shred Lamia with a whole Poison Attribute Inheritance from a Rank 6 Ancient Magus to not have ways to fight, even in such conditions!
Through these years of training and growing stronger, she became an expert at Poison Attribute Magic and held many strange spells.
She needed to use them to her advantage, now!
Dhuja gnashed her teeth, as she unleashed her Poisonous Aura, enhancing her entire body with its power as her muscles felt slimmer and faster, and her senses became sharper!
Afterward, while being coated in her slimy poison coat, she jumped away!
Flash!
"Where do you think you're going, miss Dhuja?" asked Gwendolyn, running at the side of Dhuja, which should be impossible due to her immense speed and slipperiness after coating herself in poison!
But Gwendolyn was catching up to her with ease by coating her feet with flames and running through the air, like air steps!
"(Such speed…! But I won't give up! I am going to survive!) Cursed Poison Gas!" said Dhuja, as she conjured a spell right away by using one of the many magic artifacts around her body, which already came with the strongest spells she had engraved as magic circles and runes for immediate use as long as she gave away the mana!
FLASH!
A large explosion of poisonous gases that could inflict curses happened all around, clouding Gwendolyn's vision!
However, thanks to Tiamat's bracelet, she was almost unaffected by the poison thank to the protective barrier around her body in the shape of transparent dragon scales, which reflect magic effects.
Nonetheless, Dhuja surprised Gwendolyn a bit, as Gwendolyn was startled by a few milliseconds enough for Dhuja to run faster while preparing more spells because she knew that the monster here wasn't the fox-kin woman!
A second after, a sudden and enormous pressure hit her entire body, as if gravity itself was being manipulated… This was the effects of Gravity Magic, but Gravity Magus was incredibly rare!
However, Dhuja was even prepared for such a thing, as she unleashed another spell!
A sudden bubble of purple-colored slimy liquid enveloped her whole, a barrier!
The barrier began to be enhanced by many layers and new power made from the artifacts she wore, making it incredibly resistant, more than Frank could have imagined from a mere Rank 4 Peak Stage!
"Interesting, you can resist my attack…" said Frank, as he ran at her side.
"Gravity Magic too…?! So you have multiple Mana Cores… Well, me too! Frozen Age!"
Dhuja quickly conjured a spell engraved in the Rank 4 Middle Stage Ice Attribute Mana Core she had implanted in her body, as her left arm (where the mana core was) began to glow brightly and an enormous quantity of icy winds and freezing ice rushed towards Frank, overwhelming him with an enormous explosion of iciness.
BOOM!
"Haha! That's what happens when you underestimate me! I don't know what kind of luck you had to become Rank 5, but you clearly lack the brain of one, boy!" laughed Dhuja, as she managed to reach outside of her room and then glanced above!
She suddenly conjured another spell!
"Poison Demon Wings!"
By using an artifact made by the materials of a Winged Poison Demon, she conjured the magic runes and magic circles inscribed into them, and enormous demonic wings made of hardened poison emerged over her back, three pairs of them to boot!
Flapping them, she immediately took into the air at an incredible speed, darting like a rocket into the skies!
FLASH!
"Hahaha! I did it!" laughed Dhuja, she flew over the large hole left by Frank and Gwendolyn.
Flash, flash.
Suddenly, two meteors of dark light and red flames reached her in an instant.
"You got some interesting Spells…" said Gwendolyn while being coated in flames.
"I can't say that I wasn't surprised a bit, but do you think we didn't think about this?" asked Frank.
"Y-You…! Stop messing with me! Roaring Tornado!" said Dhuja, as she activated her second additional Mana Core, a Rank 4 Mana Core, a Wind Attribute Mana Core with the inscriptions for a powerful spell!
Her right arm glowed with bright green colors, as a second after, an immense tornado of slicing emerald winds came out of it, hitting Gwendolyn and Frank while sending her higher into the skies!
BOOOM!
Dhuja smiled triumphantly as she reached the skies, she had escaped her manor and simply needed to keep flying!
FLASH!
With hope in her malicious eyes, Dhuja flew into the skies!
However…
CLASH!
"NNGEEGGH…!"
She hit… the sky!
Her speed was so fast that she ended hitting the ceiling incredibly hard, resembling a fly hitting a window thinking that it could go out through it…
"Hahh…! W-What?! What is… this?! A barrier? Of this size?!" asked Dhuja in disbelief, as she noticed the giant yellow-colored and black-colored barrier erected all over her property!
It was so enormous it resembled a dome, and it was flowing with great quantities of Mana.
When she hit it, she thought that the barrier would at least show cracks, but it was completely unfazed!
Frank and Gwendolyn smiled as they knew that this would happen, from the moment this barrier was erected that no one would have been able to escape!
Dhuja analyzed the barrier structure and power with horror, it was at least made by Rank 4 Upper Stage Magus. However, the weirdest part was that it was multi-elemental, something that was often rare and extremely complex to make!
And then, she noticed their sources, three people standing out of the barrier and concentrating on maintaining it… and they were all…
"Three little girls?!"
Dhuja was dumbfounded, how was it possible for three little brats to be able to make such an amazing barrier that could actually take hours if not days to make?!
This was utterly insane in every level possible!
Dhuja's common sense was being shattered at every passing second, alongside her hopes for surviving.
She sensed as Frank and Gwendolyn were already nearing her, as she gnashed her teeth and desperately tried to find a way out, but the barrier was simply flawless…
"No… No!"
