The Adventures of Clara

Goddess of Death

A line of light danced within the forest. At times the line will create a red mist. At times the tree will fall. At times sparks will appear.

The light is like the last lifeline. Dancing is like a god of death swinging his scythe. It took countless lives.

“Oh my Lord .. how pure .. the beauty of life is ... but also so fragile and cruel ...”

Once again the light swung. This time separate the head from where it should be.

In the twilight light. The Goddess of Death stood covered in blood, on a mountain of corpses of her prey.

“Even all this is not enough to stop you, yes ...”

Standing before the dead was an old man. A sword stuck to his chest. Just one more step for him to take his death.

“You!”

“Bold-gold ..”

The bombardment came from the air. But the Death, O’hime dodged easily.

“Nona Friede's. We better back off first until nightfall,” one sentinel advises.

This suggestion was actually quite appropriate considering that none on their side were able to match the strength of this Monster. If they waited until the night when the strength of the necromancer was at its peak, then they would have a greater chance of winning.

But this provoked the anger of both. First, retreating instead went against their goal of picking up Blackjack. Second, they have lost too much.

“What do you mean back off!”

“After the sacrifice of one of our sisters ..”

“”NO WORD BACKWARD!””

The bombardment continues. However, damage to the target was minimal. O’hime continued its slaughter while avoiding bombing from space.

“Cih!”

“Where humans are useless it.”

The party that should be a predator is now turned into a prey.

“Revelation the owner promise.”

“Oh, the mair.”

“Bless the Ifrit.”

“death.”

“Rise!”

The corpses that were lying on the ground started to stand up one by one. The Friede sisters cast a forbidden magic which awakens the dead.

The undead army immediately swarmed O'hime before being cut back by him.

But cutting them off is not enough to stop them. Even a lump of flesh would still pulsate and a piece of hand would continue to grasp.

There are several ways that have proven effective against the undead. But O’hime does not have all those methods.

Although not strong, these bodies are useful to limit the movement of O’hime. They are also very annoying and disgusting.

A fire burns a body to ashes. The other bodies were cut and eventually stopped moving.

“Give them to us,” said Mayor Darton.

“You?”

“It's been improved.”

The hole in Darton's body disappeared as if he had never been hurt in the first place. If Clara had seen this, she would have screamed in disbelief.

Strong people are different.

Darton slashed and the undead would immediately stop moving. His authority was like a natural enemy of the undead. Added to the support of his aides, the undead mob was soon eradicated.

Simultaneously O’hime managed to kill the remaining sentinels.

Now only the Friede Sisters and their target, Blackjack, remain.

“Jack! Just give up.”

“If you give up in the middle of the road like this. Don't you think that's not interesting?”

Blackjack throws three knives deftly. Surely the knife was avoided easily even without moving the foot.

He threw three knives.

“Tric cheap.”

Three knives from the front. Then the three previous blades attacked from behind. Everything was succeeded on the edge by the woman. However, a moment later the six blades exploded. And of course O’hime is not hurt from the cheap tricks of Blackjack.

“What are you playing?”

Blackjack did not reply and instead pointed upwards. There, an anomaly occurred. The sky was replaced by stars. This anomaly only occurs at a scope of a few meters.

“It's worth it that they're a little quiet. Turns out it was planning something,” murmured O’hime.

“The saying goes, fighting a necromancer at night is like fighting a fish on the ocean floor. They would only have half of their original strength during the day. And when night falls, their strength will multiply,” explained Darton's aide. “Let's finish quickly.”

O’hime's body had many wounds. There is also a stamina problem.

In contrast to her, the sisters were necromancers and had no problems with stamina.

Seize Blackjack and immediately withdraw is a wise choice.

But the question is, will the sisters allow them to act as they please?

Answer's clear.

A black-clothed figure carrying a huge scythe descended rapidly from space.

From the other end the ice spears appeared, forcing O’hime to retreat.

The sister of the sickle holder again attacked, suppressing O’hime.

On his scythe was clearly a very thick death aura. O’hime itself tries to avoid direct contact with the sickle because it will be difficult to clean the wounds after the battle later.

Meanwhile, the other sisters face off against Darton and the adjutant.

Darton's adjutant is a level four expert magician. But in the presence of the Friede sisters, she looked like a child holding her father's magic wand and proudly flaunting it.

[Groof]

[Protective dome]

The previous situation was repeated. Sister Friede launched a purple lightning bolt while Elaine held it down using a protective dome. The difference is, the lightning this time is weaker than before so the aide can withstand it with protective magic.

Sister Friede looked not surprised. He rushed off to help his sister fight O’hime, leaving the aide with his stupid look.

The protective dome was a tier four anti-magic spell and was arguably the best in its field when compared to other protective spells.

The weakness is that the spellcaster cannot move or do anything else when this magic is activated. In addition, there was also a time lag between activating the spell and undoing it.

this weakness has been exploited by Friede's sister.

When Elaine cancels her spell, Friede's sister will again attack her using lightning magic. The adjutant was forced to return to chanting the magic of the protective dome because this was the only protection magic that he mastered and was able to withstand the lightning attacks. There was also the matter of the limit of the spell that he could cast in a short period of time.

In turn, Friede's sister would again ignore the aide and choose to focus on fighting O’hime.

That way the aide is left with a difficult dilemma where he has died a flea.

On the other hand Darton was similarly useless in this battle. The problem was in the fact that he did not have a long-range attack. That way he was completely helpless against the Friede Sisters that floated freely in the air.

Darton wasn't crazy enough to be a meat patron to break the aide's dilemma. However, if he is hit by a lightning strike if not dead silly ya dying.

The only thing he can do right now is keep an eye on the Blackjack moves.

It also proved to be very effective at nailing the criminal on the spot.

The situation became awkward for them.

The clashes between the Friede Sisters also became increasingly intense.

O’hime is a bit overwhelmed. His enemy floated in the air and was thus able to move much more freely. He was also unable to take the initiative to attack. With their level of strength that did not differ much in addition again this was two against one. The captain was badly harmed.

“Until how long you can last.”

“Am I not the one who should have said that?”

The same thing happened to the Friede Sisters. Both of them used a unique magic to bring the night by force. This magic certainly has a time limit of use.

Light and dark meet, creating sparks in the air. Again and again. Even with all these losses O’hime was still able to hold the Friede Sisters draw.

The captain dodged the lightning strike from behind him. After that he warmly welcomed the scythe that was trying to cut his neck. Not enough to get there, the ice spear again targeted the blind spot.

The magic attack hit its target. The ice spear tore through O’hime's clothes, piercing through his white skin and creating a hole in his chest.

“It looks like my win.”

The voice came from O’hime's mouth.

What the ice spear attacked was only its afterimage; it could not also be called afterimage because to a certain extent it had a physical form.

His real body had long since avoided the attack.

“Not really.”

“The real night will be down soon,” the Friede Brothers reply.

The magic that the Friede Sisters created to bring forth the night forcibly was actually very taxing on their bodies. If this time was really night, then there was no way O’hime could defeat them in a two-on-one fight.

“I just need to kill you two before night really arrives,” O’hime said, confident.

"Oh."

"How arrogant is he."

Back position inverted.

O’hime is now aggressively launching attacks while the Friede Sisters try to buy time.

Darton and his adjutants saw the odds and tried to catch Blackjack.

The old man was severely injured and could only willingly let them act as they pleased.

"Done. It's our victory."

They just need to bring Blackjack to Denia City and everything will be over. Moreover, the Friede Sisters are being busy right by O'hime. This is their chance.

But unexpectedly once again the storm raged messing up the battlefield.

[Lambaian Dragon Claw]

A spear shot out very quickly perhaps even equaling the speed of sound.

O'hime was late to realize his arrival so he had to let his right hand torn to pieces.

Running following the spear was a gigantic figure nearly two meters in height. He was wearing ragged black armor yet still looked dashing when worn.

This man is no stranger to Darton.

"Estarosa," he murmured.

The situation is getting worse for them. The arrival of Estarosa tilted the scales of strength. O'hime is strong but in the face of legends like Estarosa the chance of winning is rather dubious.

He had to immediately think of a way to get out of this difficult position.
