Chapter 239: Penetrating Deep

“PETER KILL EVIL BIMBO!” Peter’s head roared as the monster dashed at Beatrice.

“Looks like there’s little doubt concerning which of the two participants our lovebirds hold a bigger grudge against,” Thelicia commented. “Skewering a man’s penis like a sausage at a campfire will do that.”

The monster aimed to squash Beatrice with its war hammer, but Beatrice avoided the attack.

“Eh?” Beatrice noticed a difference in the monster’s attacks. Just as the two engaged in combat again, Number Sixty-six took a deep breath, collecting air into her lungs, and breathed out through her mouth the same smog that she unleashed before, handing out a second dose of her fumes to Beatrice and the monster.

Peter saw this, but—rather than get out of the way of the obvious trajectory well in advance—he raised his tentacle arm, aimed his tentacles at the snake lady, and shouted, “PETER PULL!”

Before Number Sixty-six was even done unleashing the fumes, three fleshy tentacles flew through the air, extended from the monster’s tentacle hand, grabbed the snake lady’s waist, and pulled her through her own fumes, toward the vengeance-seeking monster.

For a split second, Beatrice considered helping the snake lady, but considering that the snake tried to take her out rather than help her, Beatrice preferred using the opportunity to instead strike at the monster.

“Peter!” Wendy’s head screamed for her husband’s attention and swung the war hammer through the air, where the attacking succubus was a second ago.

“You’ve really gotten a lot slower,” Beatrice said after easily dodging the monster’s hammer attacks one after another. “Whether it was poison or whatever, your absurd power means nothing if you can no longer reach me.”

Dark energies again radiated from their body and grew to surround them.

More buffs!? Regeneration? Beatrice had enough of letting her opponents power up over and over again. It was only fun to let her opponent power up when they still ended up crushed by her regardless of buffs. Otherwise, I’m the fool! Beatrice had to end this before it got really out of hand.

“Hey, Peter!” Beatrice called for the orcish Peter-head’s attention before it disappeared in its own aura. “Your wife is uglier than an anglerfish!”

“What!?” Peter snapped and looked at Beatrice, reaching for her with his two good arms, ready to snap her in half.

That was all that Beatrice needed, as she looked back into Peter’s eyes and cast [Daze].

“Huuuuuuuuuuuuuh?” Peter’s expression grew even dumber as his eyes widened and stared aimlessly through Beatrice.

“P-peter?” Wendy’s head called out to her husband as the magical aura around them weakened.

The monster’s arms fell limp at its sides, and Beatrice jumped in, aiming her index finger at Peter’s head.

“PETER!!” Wendy screamed and took control of the arms that her husband just lost, but too late.

The moment that Beatrice’s fingernail was less than a foot away from Peter’s clueless eyeball, she used her [Extend Claws] Skill that was back up from its two-minute cooldown and skewered Peter’s right eyeball, penetrating deep into the brain behind it.
