Chapter 335 Support
Quickly activating her Rejuvenation skill Shiro jumped up and grabbed Keomi into the rift. Her flesh was writhing around as it reconstructed itself.
"Just run! Don’t fight him! He has mana regen and attacks now!" Shiro shouted out into the ear piece with worry.
"Eh!? Big Sis, wasn’t your chest just... ripped apart then?" Keomi asked as her face was a little pale.
"Mn? I got healed up, don’t worry. However, I can’t do this again for a while so we need to get out of here quickly. Now that he’s reached stage four, I’m afraid there’s no way we can beat him." Shiro shook her head while moving her newly regenerated left arm.
Thankfully, her dress was made from monster cloth so she didn’t need to run around half n.a.k.e.d.
Preparing herself mentally, she jumped out the rift.
Just as they exited, a flicker of black and red attacked them and Shiro knew it was the item’s skill.
As much as she wanted to parry it, it has kept the effect gained from stage three. A single touch would render her armour and defence to null.
Therefore, her best bet was to just avoid it.
Activating Phantom path along with her Hollow Deceit, she traded places with one of her clones while Keomi rolled across the ground.
*BANG!!!!!
Missing the two of them, the blades returned back to Blythe’s side.
"Let’s go quickly before the duration refreshes!" Shiro called out.
Gesturing for Keomi to follow her, she dashed away.
At the same time that this was happening, the trio, Lisandra, Cyril and Syvi, had already started to make their way out of the area.
Since Shiro had shouted in such a panic, they knew that the situation was bad. Not only that, Lisandra was pretty sure that Shiro’s HP had reached 0 before regenerating back to full.
’This is bad, I don’t think mum anticipated this outcome.’ Lisandra thought with a frown.
At this point, even with the first prince’s help, killing Blythe would be akin to a miracle.
"We don’t want to go too far since my skill has a limited range of effect. Too far and Shiro will be done for." Cyril reminded.
"Got it."
However, they didn’t need to worry about this since Shiro was running behind them.
"Keomi, are you able to ask your subordinate how much longer it will take the prince to arrive?" Shiro asked as sweat dripped from her face.
Even now, she was making ice weapons in order to push back Blythe so that he wouldn’t kill them.
"Sure I’ll try." Keomi nodded.
While Keomi was calling her subordinate, Nimue had spoke up about the possibility of Shiro using her Nanomancer class.
’With how things are right now, I won’t be able to make a decent weapon without the blades killing me instantly. I need to focus on running until the meat shields arrive.’ Shiro replied with a shake of her head.
"They said they’ll need around 3 to 5 minutes big sis!" Keomi called out.
"F*ck! Tell them to come in 1!!" Shiro retorted.
Holding off for 1 minute was already a chore never mind 5 minutes. Despite her links feeling like they were on the verge of breaking, she had continuously thrown out her reinforced ice weapons in order to slow him down. Even a few seconds would be appreciated at this point.
’If I use my Sylph Queen’s Domain EX, Throne World and Frenzied Incarnation EX, I should be able to hold out for a lot longer. However, if I do that, once the timer is up for the berserk skill, I’ll be fish on a chopping board, unable to resist.’ She thought with a frown.
Unless she can guarantee that she can take care of the danger within the time that her berserk skill was active, there was no way that she was going to use it since it would only increase her chances of dying.
"They said they’ll try to come as quickly as possible."
"Ok. Also, tell them about his fourth skill." Shiro instructed. Even though they were supposed to act as meat shields, it would do her no help if they just died blindly. She needed to make sure that their death’s were actually worth it.
After informing her subordinate of the skill’s description, Keomi stopped the call and put her phone away.
’How troublesome. If I knew the idiot was going to reach stage 4, I should have just got my hand cannon and shot him when we saw Morthil.’ Shiro thought with slight regret.
Jumping into the rift with Keomi, she quickly dodged the blades once more.
This game of cat and mouse continued for another minute with Shiro sustaining injuries every second. While none of them were lethal, the sheer number of them made one pale in shock.
Blood flowed out from each of her wounds, drenching her in her own blood. To make matters worse, she had already healed quite a few of the wounds through using her life fire.
"Say, Keomi, are they here yet?" Shiro asked as her voice was rather weak.
Currently, she had no more strength to run away so she could only make her last stand through continuously making ice shields to protect them. But with Blythe’s strength, they were easily shattered apart.
"I don’t know." Keomi replied softly since she too was injured.
While she could punch the blades away, doing so would also harm her since the backlash would fracture her bones without her armour and defence blocking the majority of the damage.
Taking a deep breath, Shiro decided to have a last stand of sorts with the Blythe using her Nanomancer class.
"Keomi, can you keep a secret for me?" Shiro asked seriously as her aura flared. Ice continuously spread out in an attempt to slow down Blythe’s charge.
"Of course sis, anything for you. But considering our situation, I don’t think I get the choice." Keomi chuckled sadly.
"Then I want you to forget about everything in the next 10 minutes ok? Don’t speak or ask questions of what happens next. Are you able to do that?" Shiro asked while glancing back at her.
"Sure."
After she got confirmation, despite it only being a verbal one, Shiro decided to go for it anyways. No point keeping a secret if she’s going to be dead again.
Lighting sparked around her as she created two versions of genesis in her hands.
Dropping the ice shields, she readied her guns and pulled the trigger.
*BANG BANG!!!
The bullet’s drilled against the blades and diverted their directions instantly.
"Che, you had your fun and now it’s time for some revenge." Shiro glared at Blythe while twirling her guns.
Dashing towards Blythe, Shiro activated her skill Analysis and made sure to examine his muscle movements so that she could react in time. Not only that, she’ll need to be careful of the blades or else she’ll die for good without her Rejuvenation skill helping her rewind her injuries.
Looking at Shiro who was constantly making guns and swords to fight against Blythe, Keomi couldn’t help but widen her eyes in shock.
It was common knowledge that bullets don’t work on monsters due to the lack of mana along with the fact that no one was able to fully integrate mana into the actual guns itself.
However, this knowledge was shattered as Shiro continuously made a variety of guns and slowly pushed Blythe back despite many of her close calls. With shotguns, snipers and even rail cannons being made every second, she had forced Blythe to be defensive.
This made it so that she only needed to worry about the Executioner’s Requiem. While she did try to get a few lethal blows in, Blythe would always use Executioner’s Requiem and trade places with a clone, causing the shot to miss.
While they looked like they were in a stand still, Shiro knew that she was going to lose within the next few moments.
Despite all of her regeneration, she had less than 2 million mana left which was not even 10% of her total mana.
Once she gets below 1 million, she doubts she can continue to make effective weapons since the mana cost would be over her current budget.
’Tch, seems like it’s the end.’ She thought in annoyance. However, despite this, she was going to struggle and fight on. Even if she loses an arm or a leg, as long as she can fight, she will.
Thankfully however, it seems like she didn’t need to struggle much longer since the first prince had arrived with support.
