Chapter 778 Monica's Prowess
-----
As a tremendous commotion spread out across the entire Capital of Silvertide, from both the inside as Blake's Familiars destroyed everything and from the outside as both familiars and his friends massacred the demons waiting there, a small group made up of Monica and her teammates rushed across the city's ruined streets, following the presence of living beings beneath the surface.
"Over here!" Monica said, wearing her special Cursed Dress Spirit, she gained unprecedented physical strength, smashing the wooden door open and jumping down, landing on a series of stairs leading down.
"Intruders!"
"Stop them!"
"You won't get through!"
She and her team were immediately greeted by a sizable group of demons, most of them being from Low to Mid Rank, including Warrior Imps and High Onis, with large and burly bodies.
However her team was rather competent, quickly summoning their spirits, mostly Silver-themed weapons, armor, and shields, as they rushed forward while Monica led them from behind.
"RAAAH!"
"We won't let you stop us!"
"We're here to rescue milady's father!"
The girls fiercely clashed against the unsuspecting demons, their weapons piercing their bodies easily, as they had leveled up a lot, their strength had increased dramatically, including that of their Spirits, naturally.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CRAAASH!
Of course, there was another reason on why they were dealing so much damage, it wasn't all about just overpowering the opponent sometimes, especially when Monica was in there!
She was holding her voodoo doll Spirit, while using her accursed needle spirit to pierce its body parts, transmitting the pain her spirit felt to her enemies, which could spread through a large range.
"Urgh, my legs hurt so much!"
"Agh, I can't walk!"
"Ugh?! I'm paralyzed?!"
Monica made sure to pierce the legs and arms first, paralyzing their movements, and then the stomach so they weakened their defenses, making her friend's attacks easily pierce through their bodies.
They kept advancing across the corridors until they finally reached the deepest parts of the city, the sewers, which were filled with even more demons hiding from the commotion above.
"Advance! Keep moving! We're getting closer!"
Monica kept cursing her opponents as her friends easily slashed them apart and pierced their heads. The Demons tried firing demon magic at them several times, but those that possessed Silver Shield Spirits protected her, while she cursed her opponents to have little mana to use magic properly.
"There!"
Monica noticed the life forces closer, as she gave a turn and finally found them, a large hall filled with cells, where hundreds of people were trapped, their arms and legs wrapped in chains.
There were some survivors of the Capital, even if they looked to be very few compared to the thousands of citizens this pristine capital once held…
The survivors had already noticed the disturbances above the surface, and were awake, looking around, and growing more nervous as they heard the demons being slain one after another.
One man, covered in bruises, wounds, and lacking half his teeth as he was tortured by the demons gruesomely to answer some questions regarding his Kingdom and daughter, which he never answered, slowly opened his eyes, noticing a familiar voice.
"M-Monica…?!" He quickly crawled into the cell, glancing at the group of young girls fighting against dozens of demons. "My daughter! It's my daughter Monica! S-She's here…! She's here!"
"Dammit! You damn humans, how did you get this powerful?!" A Demon Lord stepped out of the crowd, with the appearance of a black and red werewolf, with two heads and four arms, as tall as three meters. "And you useless bunch! Can't you even beat a group of cute little girls?!"
He quickly crushed the demons around him as he stepped forwards, confronting Monica and her friends, and stopping them from reaching their goal.
"You…! A Demon Lord!" Monica said, gritting her teeth.
"That's right…" The two-headed werewolf-like demon lord laughed. "I'm sorry but this is as far as you'll get, brats! Once Lord Satan deals with whatever has come to invade us, we'll make sure to devour you all! Heh, especially you! Better surrender while we are in good terms, I wouldn't really want your beautiful and small bodies to get damaged, I usually like to have some fun with my food before eating it, kyahahaha…!"
"You bastard! How dare you talk to our lady like that?!"
"We won't let you even touch her!"
"We're here to protect her with our lives!"
Monica's brave friends stepped forward, pointing their weapons at the wolf, as the Demon Lord constantly emanated a mighty demonic aura.
"Is that so?" He smiled. "We'll see about that!"
FLAAASH!
He rushed towards the girls at an incredible speed, his enormous claws charging with all his demonic energy, as he swung them against the girls with a mighty, clashing sound!
CLAAAASSSH!!!
"Hah! You get what you deserve for being so cocky, you foolish humans- Eh?!"
However, although the clashing sound was strong, it ended fooling him for a few seconds before he realized his own claws broke, and a few of his fingers shattered.
"W-What the…?! What… happened?!"
His two heads glared everywhere in shock, noticing that his arms, and legs were covered on a strange, purple, and black-colored accursed aura, Curses!
"Did you thought I would let you get ahead of yourself, you monster?" Monica asked, her three Spirits resonating with her powers.
Her Voodoo Doll was pierced by her needle in several areas, and her dress was amplifying her curses powers beyond their original effects, more than tripling what they could do!
And above all, Demons were usually immune to curses and status effects, that's until she conjured a Curse named [Curse-Enabling Curse] on herself, giving herself the power to pierce through Curse Immunity or Resistances.
Indeed, thanks to her third and strongest spirit so far, Monica not only acquired the power to prolong curses and enhance their effects, but also to modify them and curse herself, to grant her own curses incredible abilities beyond common sense.
She wasn't a Second Year Student for nothing!
"My strength is slowly being drained away… And my speed- ugh…! Y-You bastards!"
The two-headed werewolf couldn't believe what was happening, his body erupting with a mighty demonic aura, as his two heads unleashed two powerful beams of demonic flames!
BOOOOOMMM!!! BOOOOOMMM!!!
