Chapter 358 Everyone Joins The Fray

—–

Kuro and Raven had fought to protect Julia’s life, just as Maria had commanded them. Both had fought bravely but ended being defeated by the Vampires at the end. Barely in the verge of having their souls leave their undead bodies, Maria managed to catch up to them through her Phantasmal Clones, and quickly decided to repair them. However, there was a problem, even if she repaired them, she lacked enough materials and time to actually make them strong enough to fight as of now.

Despite that, she planned to simply protect them inside her shadows. But they were unwilling. Her Undead wanted to fight and protect her as well. Ultimately, Maria took the decision to transform both of them into a single creature, a new Undead Chimera that emerged within her Soul Grimoire’s Undead Creation list. It took a few minutes for them to completely fuse and evolve into this entity.

But when that happened… they truly became monstrously strong! Overflowing with a Rank B Aura, both of these powerful Undead, now as one, unleashed a barrage of attacks against Beowulf, using their claws infused with shadows and phantasmal flames that could damage the soul directly! Not only that, but they had also attained a level of strength enough to allow them to easily pierce through the skin of the overpowered werewolf.

CLAAASH!

“GRAOH!”

The furious roar of a lion resonated across the battlefield, as Kuro pushed forward, his claws slashing through Beowulf’s chest. Blood splattered everywhere, as Beowulf felt a sudden and odd feeling. The moment Kuro attacked him his soul also received damage. He quickly noticed that the claws of the beast were coated in blue flames, enchanted by the magic stat of the creature to the point they would pierce through his physical body and reach the soul he was using to envelop himself in the Beast Spirit Aura.

BAAAM!

Beowulf’s body rolled over the ground, as he quickly got up right before a burst of black flames coming out of both Kuro and Raven’s head engulfed him whole. The flames carried deadly curses that could even affect a Vampire as well! Beowulf held the natural ability to float in midair, so he immediately flew upwards to evade the beasts’ attacks, but Kuro also had two enormous pairs of wings.

FLUOSH!

Raven’s wings coated themselves in phantasmal flames, suddenly enhancing the speed of his flight. Just like he had moved before to reach Beowulf before he could even notice, it was as if a flash of shadows reached the werewolf in an instant, clashing against him with great strength and force, like a black meteor coated in phantasmal blue flames!

CLAAASH!

“GRAAH!”

The werewolf roared angrily, containing the powerful charge of the chimeric beast and unleashing a barrage of attacks using the claws of his hands and kicking it with his legs. The beast resisted the hits without feeling any pain, while it showered Beowulf with phantasmal flames, and finished its barrage of attacks with an explosive black flame breath!

BOOOM!!!!

“U-Unnggh?!”

Beowulf was left utterly speechless, somehow his strength was weakening by the second! This wasn’t without a reason, however. It was all thanks to the effort that Mercury had put into stalling for time, which also slowly drained away Beowulf’s vitality, all while the phantasmal clone possessing Mercury drained him of a large chunk of his MP. Now, Kuro and Raven had the power of damaging souls through the phantasmal blue flames. It wasn’t hard to imagine they would be able to weaken him severely with each attack, even more when the werewolf, too wild and dumb to realize the flame’s true properties, ended allowing the chimera to shower him with such deadly fire.

Kuro and Raven didn’t let go of Beowulf, as they used both of their heads to bite through his chest and grab him with their three pairs of legs and claws, pushing him down from high up in the sky with a furious speed!

BAAAAM!

“GRAAHHH…!”

Beowulf vomited a mouthful of blood, feeling dizzy. His Aura of Beast Spirit was slowly dissipating as well, his soul was too weakened to have enough energy to feed it for more than a few more minutes. And his Stamina wasn’t recovering as fast anymore, his Mana was near zero as well. Even a Vampire could weaken and grow tired eventually, even though they had insane resiliency, they were not truly immortal as the rumors always said.

The werewolf, filled with rage, gathered the energy he had leftover into his hands, unleashing an explosive barrage of slashing attacks against Kuro and Raven together!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

“GRAAAH!!!”

“GRAOH!”

The chimera beast resisted some of the hits, but Beowulf was becoming more furious by the second, his Berserk Mode Skill activating in conjunction with his Lycan Transformation Skill whenever his health reached a certain margin, suddenly granting him insane amounts of power for a small amount of time! Kuro and Raven unleashed their attacks as well, as explosions of blue and black flames mixed with the golden glow and red glow of Beowulf’s Beast Spirit Aura and Blood Aura!

BOOOOMMM!!!

CLASH!

However, a sudden conclusion happened, as Beowulf saw Kuro and Raven in the floor, completely weakened and almost at the verge of death once more. The werewolf somehow managed to fend off the furious beast despite having grown so strong. Kuro and Raven had yet to practice and get used to their new power, at the end, the beasts were overwhelmed.

“Nngh…”

Beowulf fell over the floor, gasping for air, his entire body was weakened, his wounds were not recovering in time, and he felt incredible thirsty. However, he had somehow won, but despite that, he was too weakened to even move a single centimeter.

SPLASH!

However, a spray of blood suddenly fell from the sky. Beowulf looked upwards, as Agatha had sprayed blood not only to detonate it, but also to feed him and help him recover. Beowulf desperately moved towards the blood, drinking it all and slowly regaining his strength! A sickening smile emerged in Beowulf’s wolf face, as he slowly moved towards Kuro, with all the intention to rip the chimera into pieces this time…

FLASH!

CLASH!

However, out of nowhere, a lustrous crimson and purple colored spear pierced through Beowulf’s chest! The spear pierced through the floor below, leaving him stuck in place! And from above his vision, a trio was slowly descending.

“That beast is already knocked out, why don’t you mess with someone of your size?”

Lucifer spoke with a cold demeanor, his gaze piercing through the werewolf’s very soul, the furious presence of a Death Dragon was something utterly terrifying.
