BXBX NOVEL Chapter 328 Ray’s Mother Against The Enchantress
Sirius took to another shadow around him and appeared right behind the shield. Over there, he saw an unconscious Nia along with Tim who seemed panicked enough to forget everything around him.
"Guess it was her," Sirius thought as he sensed the lack of mana in the surroundings and given the exhausted state Nia was in, it didn't take long for him to connect the links, "Even then it seems that the enemy is alive, not by much though," Sirius murmured as he raised his hands and called upon the shadows around him.
Due to the intense heat and the flames, the shadows were few and weren't much strong but it was enough to serve his purpose.
"You guys rest," He said to Tim and enclosed them both in the shadows. Just as Sirius turned, another person approached him.
"Hey Sirius," Kid waved his hand and stood besides him, "Any news? I think the guy is still hidden in the flames," Kid suggested as frost started to form around his hands.
Looking up, Sirius noticed another strange scenario, the shadow wolves he had set up around the perimeter were destroyed. Prompting that someone had breached the area.
"Kid, your powers are best suited for this situation, i am needed somewhere else. Also, don't worry about the other two; i will take them with me," Saying that, Sirius lifted his hands and dove down into the shadows and along with him was also shadowy capsule in which Nia and Tim were.
"Let's have some fun," Kid grinned as his eyes turned blue. A frosty aura covering his body as the giant phantom of a Yeti appeared behind him.
Kid had activated his bloodline right away, tapping into his potential at the fullest so he could end it all at the earliest.
On the other hand, Sirius appeared right outside the fiery dome as he noticed the intensity of the fire coming down a notch. Nodding in satisfaction, he moved to the makeshift infirmary and dropped down the other two with him and then moved to the intruding presence he had noticed earlier.
"Even Ray is missing and I couldn't sense much from the forest either, I wonder how the fight would have gone?" Sirius thought and moved through the shadows. His body blurring into the reality as he appeared right in the middle of an ongoing battle.
He saw a woman pitted against Ray's mother as both of them exchanged light blows, treading carefully as they probed each other.
"Out from one and into the other," Sighed Sirius as he covered himself in the shadows and observed the battle from the sidelines.
"Ready to take this up a notch?" The woman grinned as she tapped her neck, causing her armor to morph. From previously covering her body fully, the armor liquified to only cover her vital parts and two short swords that appeared in her hands. Looking at her, many would have thought for her to be at a disadvantage but for the woman, it suited her abilities perfectly. The short swords were her favored weapons to attack with while excessively showing her body perfectly served her role as an enchantress.
"Let's have some," she teased Ray's mother as she swayed her hips and walked forward in a hypnotizing manner.
Looking at her, even Sirius found it hard to control his emotions and hormones from running wild while Ray's mother just snorted in annoyance, "Try all you can, it won't effect me in any way possible,"
"Let's see for how long you will be able to keep up with that smug attitude," The woman smirked and slashed her sword. A purplish glow shining on them as the illusion of a beautiful fairy formed behind her.
"Go away," Ray's mother swatted the woman away with a staff as thick as a pillar. The staff was bright and made from the fusion of light element and earth element as currently she had paired herself with two elemental beasts; A light fairy and an Earth Elemental spirit.
Combining the abilities and strengths of both the beasts together allowed Ray's mother to be not only more versatile when using her abilities but also create strong weapons to give her an edge in the battle.
Just like the staff right now, she could change its size and shape at will while use the light element to cast various lethal attacks that moved at light speed. From afar, both women seemed to be in a deadlock but in reality, a mental battle ensued between them.
Their weapons locked against each other as they stared into one another's eyes, waiting for them to make the next move. Ray's mother had long noticed the strange mist seeping out of her opponent's skin and how it affected her surroundings, "It must be some sort of chemical or hormone her body produces to create illusions against her opponents," Thought Ray's mother.
On the other hand,
The enchantress smiled, she knew that how ever tough a shell was, it was a shell nonetheless and everything had its breaking. She had a lot of time on her hands and wouldn't mind going as far as she could to witness that breaking point and enchant the woman in front of her.
After all, such a strong opponent with even stronger willpower was hard to come by and she would happily give an arm and leg to secure her prize.
Alas, Ray's mother wasn't the usual opponent she had faced. To Ray and the rest, she wasn't much different from someone who had gotten strong quite some time ago but that was all. The rest of her identity was shrouded in mystery and so was her past.
In the beginning of his journey, Ray would have never thought that her mother wasn't just some usual being but someone who had carefully hidden her strength throughout the years and lived the most basic life ever since the disappearance of her husband.
Ray wouldn't believe it even now because what happened next baffled Sirius and would have done the same for Ray but he wasn't here. He was on his own mission and he would have to wait before the reality opened upon him.
"I also want to see how good that beguiling charm of yours is," Ray's mother smiled. Her smile ethereal and pure as it managed to be as dazzling as that of the enchantress, causing the woman's mouth to twitch in anger. Yet the enchantress kept her calm, she stepped forward as her long and slender leg was revealed. Her hand traced down the leg as her expression changed. Her eyes narrowed slightly while the mouth opened ever so barely with her small tongue being seen within it. Somehow, the enchantress managed to look extremely alluring and her body emitted such charm that Sirius; who had watched everything from the shadows had his mouth wide open. A certain part of his body standing in ovation while a thought continuously nagged his mind to submit to the goddess in front of him.
"Is that it?" Asked Ray's mother with a disgusted expression on her face. Her face twisted in anger as she hated these sort of people the most. They were the ones who tricked others into becoming their slaves and acted like the victim. It was only outside that they looked so pure and innocent but inside, Ray's mother knew that their hearts were blacker than coal and that these scum didn't deserve to live.
The light element danced at her finger tips as her staff transformed into a huge bastard sword. The tip opening in two ends while a slight curve formed as well, "Not as good as the one in the legends but this shape allows me best attacking power," Muttered Ray's mother as she tensed her hands and grabbed the heavy sword tightly.
Her eyes turning white as two wings appeared behind her along with a full stone armor that covered the entirety of her body.
She knew that in close quarters was her advantage while if she prolonged the fight, it would only delay the inevitable. After all, even if Ray's mother was resistant to charm, she wasn't immune to it and it would take only so much time for her to be effected to some extent. Hence, Ray's mother decided to end it all before anything even happened,
Her feet kicked the ground and she disappeared in a flash. Appearing right in front of the enchantress, her sword was already swung and her attack midway as the woman noticed the attack a tad bit too late and the best she was able to do was crossing her arms above her chest. Yet it didn't help one bit as the woman was sent rolling on the ground while Ray's mother didn't let her a moment of reprieve and went on with a follow up attack that turned into a whole series of attacks which were nothing less than a bullying stunt. It was Ray's mother bullying the enchantress and no one cared or even would.
