Chapter 525 Fighting The Blood Infant (1)

Swirling her chakrams like flowing water, Giana gets into her battle stance with her eyes narrowed.

Following the anger that is burning inside of her like a raging bale fire, she decided to stop reserving her power and just use everything in her arsenal for the fight. From what the Vampires did to the cities they raided, Giana can't contain herself anymore.

Right now she's witnessing a scene that she has never seen in her entire life.

As a ninth-rank Awakened which is one of the pillars of humanity, she has battled and overseen countless fights with the Supernatural since the Supernatural Emergence. It's an understatement to say that she doesn't know almost everything about the Supernatural races.

But the red portal in front of her right now is a sight that she has never seen.

Like creatures crawling out of hell, dozens of hands starting to come out of the red portal trying to claw their way into the real world. Their ashy skinny arms are protruding out of the red portal, clawing as if they were in jail and trying to come out.

Giana squinted her eyes ready, she needs to be careful with the red portal.

There's no guarantee that dashing in right now wouldn't be a foolish move, she got a lot of responsibilities, and dying isn't an option. It will pummel humanity even further to the ground if she died here.

While looking at the red portal, a particular hand suddenly stabbed out of the portal.

Upon this particular hand coming out of the portal, the other hands that are trying to get out got back inside the red portal again. Giana can feel the energy coming from the portal, but there's no energy coming out of the owner of this hand.

Giana's eyes then glow with a blue hue squinting her eyes warily.

Looking from her vision, she can see that the colorful elemental mana in the air that should be invisible to the Vampires or other Supernatural races that can't use elemental mana starting to get attracted to the ashy hand.

'It's feeding on mana... but how can it interact with elemental mana?'

Just as she thought of that the ashy hand started to gain mass from absorbing the elemental mana, and it didn't take long before the creature on the other side steps its foot outside of the red portal. A diabolical face greeted Giana as she frown even harder.

From a glance, it looks like a skinless tiger's head with bulging eyes and uneven sharp teeth.

But Giana soon widens her eyes when the creature finally steps out of the red portal completely, it's towering like a hunchback monster four times Giana's height. With the stacked horns that follow along its head all the way to its back, this creature looks like an animal from another world.

ROAR!!

Meanwhile, not far from the fight between Giana and the Vampire army.

Ellen and the other Awakened are rushing with all their might but still got left behind by Giana. But it's expected as they can't compare with Giana's speed as some of them are even only fifth rank Awakened.

As a mind Elementalist, they can somewhat access the ability of telekinesis.

Most of them are levitating while some others are running on the ground, they are dashing through the place following the sparking trail in the sky that Giana has left for them to follow.

"We should be close!", Ellen shouted to the others.

But just as she said that one of the Awakened behind her pointed in a direction with wide eyes.

"Leader, look!"

Upon hearing this Ellen glances in the direction the Awakened pointed at before her eyes widen in absolute shock seeing the gnarly sinister creature that stands towering even from afar, it's nothing that they have seen before.

If not for the Awakened seeing the creature, the others wouldn't even notice.

ROAR!!

"What is that...?"

"That's definitely not a Supernatural or a Mutated Animal!"

"It's huge..."

Ellen looks at the sinister creature before she gritted her teeth in worry, she heard the bickering of the other Awakened on her back before shouting with her aura exploding, "Move faster you fool! Lady Giana will need our assistance!"

Swoosh!!

Back to the fight,

Giana heard the ground-shaking roar that came out of the sinister creature's mouth.

Most of the Vampires already regrouped behind this sinister creature alongside Calidora, Queen Shanaela, and Seth. Even some of them seem to be frightened upon seeing the sinister creature glancing back at them with the hoarse baritone sound of its vocal chord trembling.

Realizing instantly, Calidora points her Blood Devourer at Giana that is also looking at her.

With the rune on the Blood Devourer dimmed down again, it seems slashing the void to summon this sinister creature takes a heft toll on the Blood Devourer's gathered energy. Alongside the creature slowly turning its eyes toward Giana, the Vampire army also circles her filled with bloodlust.

Despite Giana absolutely obliterating them from the initial clash, the appearance of the sinister creature that is under Calidora's command makes them regain back their confidence.

Killing a ninth-rank Awakened here will be a feat that they can boast of for the rest of their lives.

Upon surrounding Giana from all sides intending to take her out for good with the sinister creature as their hope, the tension started rising as the sinister creature and Giana looks at each other trying to gauge each other's strength.

Giana riled up her arcane mana preparing for the clash that will happen any second now.

Slowly but surely the Vampires clad in black uniforms that highlighted their red eyes inches closer, their blood energy forms a cloud of energy that turns the surroundings reddish in color. From a twitch of the sinister creature's legs.

KABOOM!

Using its arms covered with a sturdy exoskeleton, both of them clash powerfully.

The sinister creature blocks the incoming attack from Giana's chakrams which are filled with arcane mana. Her blue eyes fixated on the sinister creature but then suddenly she finds the sinister creature smirking at her.

Looking down at her arcane chakrams, her eyes widen seeing the exoskeleton glows red.

'It can even absorb arcane mana?! This creature is dangerous...'

But just as she thought of that, her glowing blue eyes darted left and right seeing the other Vampires making a move. They chanted countless spells boasting their choking blood energy.

Shing!!

Boom!

All kinds of spells are coughed out by the Vampires trying to distract Giana.

But as a ninth-rank Awakened that also has access to the Spirit Gladiator form, her perception reaches a terrifying height. She dodges each attack with efficient movement no matter where it came from.

Giana didn't even need to look back to dodge an incoming spell from the back.

Somersaulting away with her graceful movement while simultaneously throwing her blue chakrams like a boomerang that easily sliced seventh rank Vampires left and right, her eyes dilated seeing about a hundred droplets of blood turn into bullets and shot at her from all directions.

"Great Spell, Water Distortion Splash"

Clap!

With nothing but a clap of her hands, a water shockwave dissipates every blood bullet.

Giana flaps her wings before looking at Calidora that is surely the one that created the blood needles. Beside Calidora, Queen Shanaela chanted something before a circle formation appears on the ground in front of her.

A humongous creature made out of rock and plants came out with its glowing green eyes.

Judging from its look the creature should be somekind of high-rank summoned golem boasting its incredible defense against water Elementalist, Queen Shanaela is using everything she has to protect Calidora despite her being hurt.

"Don't push yourself, the Blood Infant can fend her off"

"No princess, your safety is of the utmost importance for us. Protect her will all your might Queen Shanaela!"

Seth standing on the other side intervenes forcing a frown on Calidora's face.

It's troubling since Queen Shanaela is coughing blood from her mouth a couple of times from that one exchange with Giana, she was hurt from the arcane mana rampaging inside her body disrupting the flow of nature energy inside her.

Giana who is looking at Calidora darted her eyes to her back sensing something.

Upon turning around, she finds there's a three-end tail that is already on her back. It's the sinister creature's tail filled with spike that looks strong enough to shatter the Great Barricade wall if it wanted.

It turns into a whip intending to hit Giana with the spikes covering the tail.

But with nothing but a twist of her waist she sliced the three-end tail with both chakrams as if it was nothing, the sinister creature growled in pain as its thick three-end tail got severed just like that. Immediately after that, Giana land on the grown before her body glows with a blinding light once again.

With the blue markings all over her body charging with endless arcane mana, her eyes flickered.

The wings on her back closed onto her body again before the wings flapped out powerfully creating a shockwave that destroyed and turn everything into ruin in a mile radius, "Raaargghh!!", Giana's roar echoed to the surrounding that sounded inhuman.

Alongside that roar and shockwave were the two chakrams swung openly.

A cutting-edge energy slash made of pure energy cut everything around Giana, the Vampires chanted the same spell at the same time and created a reddish blood barrier that penetrated the sky.

BOOM!!

Some parts of the reddish blood barrier kept standing while most of them got slashed alongside the Vampires behind it. The two chakrams that got thrown to the side stopped in response to Giana moving her hands, she then glared at the sinister creature that is growling at her menacingly.

"Empyrean Dancer of Annilihation Art, second form!"

Giana chanted powerfully before the two chakrams expanded into the size of a house.

Lighting started to spark on the chakrams powerfully as if they turned into the embodiment of lightning instead. Not stopping at there, the sinister creature looks down and finds its legs and tail sinking.

It's like standing in quicksand, the ground liquefy and sucked the sinister creature into the ground.

Growl!!

Despite trying its hardest to push itself out of the liquefy ground the sinister creature is stuck, Queen Shanaela gritted her bloodied teeth upon seeing this before she points her golden sword at Giana, "Nature is unkind to those opposing it, Solar-Ray!"

SWOOSH!

A golden beam of light shot toward Giana charging for a spell.

But contrary to Queen Shanaela's expectation that intends to disturb Giana, the Solar-Ray doesn't do anything to her as she's covered with a bubble of condensed water and lightning. Others also tried to attack Giana but their blood spells fall short.

Crossing her arms in front of her body, the smirk on Giana's face started to widen from ear to ear, "No matter what you do... all of you are going to die today. Second form, Supreme Thunder!!"

CRACK!!

A flash of lightning lit up the entire sky for dozens of miles in radius.

Giana's two chakrams that are vigorous with violent lightning started spinning before both of them the sizes of a house started circling cutting everything on their path with Giana as their pivot. Even the strongest Vampires clad in black uniforms got cut in two.

It's an unstoppable attack that is starting to get tighter and tighter by the second.

The circling trajectory of the chakrams becomes smaller and smaller and got close to Calidora, Queen Shanaela, and Seth. Without a doubt, they can't defend against the chakrams that are completely unhindered by anything.

"Princess! Snap out of your daze and control the Blood Infant!"

Upon hearing Seth shouting at her, Calidora looks at the sinister creature.

Just from a glance from Calidora, the sinister creature started to move from its spot. The sinister creature jumped and landed right on top of Calidora and the others, putting them in between its legs.

Cackling disturbingly upon seeing the Chakrams, the sinister creature looks eager.

On the other hand, seeing the situation they are in that requires the most willpower to survive, Queen Shanaela controls the golem. It heads to the three of them before covering them with its own body.

It's a guardian summoning, the body is hard and made to defend from powerful attacks.

Giana scoffed upon seeing this, she then glances back at the sinister creature overestimating its capabilities, 'Hmph! After finishing the third form of the Empyrean Dancer of Annilihation Art, even King Solomon wouldn't want to get hit by it. The second form can shred the strongest eighth-rank Supernatural easily and wound an early ninth-rank Supernatural...'

'Princess of the Vampires, Queen of Elves, and the Blood Devourer. I'll take them all!'

KABOOM!!

The chakrams filled with violent lightning explode with a devastating shockwave upon making contact with the sinister creature, it was so devastating that the entire place surrounding them got flattened.

Even the ground crumbles as cracks start to appear and spread to all directions.

If there are some survivors in Nuta City, they can definitely feel the ground rumbles from that shockwave that decimated and charred the Vampires that still survived. Only the scream and wails of Vampires filled the place as their bodies turns into dust.

But in the midst of flashing lightning that zapped the entire place.

Giana's eyes dilated seeing the sinister creature slowly starting to emit a horrendous aura that can't be felt, but smelled instead. Her eyes widen seeing that the sinister creature growled angrily in the middle of being clamped by the two chakrams.

'It shouldn't be possible for it to do this...
