Chapter 657 - Killing The Dryad

The moment the flower blossomed on top of Ava's head like any other monsters, Ava stopped for a second.

"Now, let's have some fun." The Dryad grinned as she pointed at Theo. "Kill him."

Theo, who was fighting the monsters coming from the left, noticed Ava's change and saw her appearing in front of him. Her hand swept from the right, almost hitting him.

Theo was lucky to have enough time to lean back, barely dodging her smack.

"Ava?" Theo raised his eyebrows in confusion. "What's wrong?"

As he raised his head, Theo saw the white flower and exclaimed in shock. "That flower…"

"As expected, you know about my illusion flower. However, there's nothing you can do in this situation." The Dryad laughed. "Now, how about you kill that freaking rabbit?"

Theo gritted his teeth and jumped backward while using his Telekinesis to rearrange the corpses so that he could stop the monsters.

Ava followed him and struck his chest with her lightning-covered fist.

The punch ultimately hit the spear's handle and launched Theo away.

The latter managed to land on the ground without suffering any damage, but he was already too far away from Agata.

Knowing he couldn't help Agata, he shouted, "Agata. Run toward me. We're going to change our setup."

Agata finally noticed something was going on and hurriedly came to him, albeit the Dryad appeared before her and struck her on the chest.

Agata managed to raise both hands and stopped the fist with her arms, but she was still blown away.

"You're not going anywhere. After he dies, you're next." The Dryad laughed, enjoying how the two friends were fighting each other.

"Then, I'm going to deal with you first." Agata clicked her tongue and formed spikes.

The Dryad countered it with her own vines and shattered her pink smoke.

At the same time, Theo was shooting his Magic Bullets at the monsters while moving the corpses simultaneously, trying to form another set of walls to stop the incoming beasts.

"You're not going to run away? Come on, run away like you did earlier." The Dryad made a sinister smile.

Even Agata knew the moment they ran away, Ava's life would be in danger. So, Theo must want to rescue Ava first before leaving.

The only way to help him was to stop the monsters and the Dryad. So, she rose a huge wall of pink smoke before creating multiple spikes toward the Dryad to kill her.

The Dryad didn't even need to get serious to destroy all the spikes. Her vines were enough to shatter all of her attempts to break through.

"Kh." Agata gritted her teeth and said, "Whatever. I'm going to fight you no matter the circumstances."

As if she had learned from before, the monsters passed through the wall of smoke and pounced on Agata.

The latter used her pink smoke to stab them on the head, but most of them missed their targets. Still, her plan had worked as she got the time she needed to escape from their onslaught.

Theo's situation wasn't any better. With Ava pinning him down, the monsters made their way toward him.

The Dryad seemed to be planning to kill Ava and Theo at the same time.

"Ava. Snap out of it!" Theo shouted in his struggle while summoning a hundred Magic Bullets, shooting all of them to the monsters on their side.

After that, he pushed Ava with his Telekinesis and Magic Power Expansion, launching her into the air.

"I'm going to make you snap out of the illusion." Theo jumped upward, trying to chase her before the Dryad tried to mess his mind again.

"It's impossible. The only way to remove that illusion is to kill me. And you won't be able to do that because that disgrace is keeping you there." The Dryad laughed, satisfied with the scene.

Theo gritted his teeth and gathered all his power in his spear before striking the air. The power exploded in mid-swing and generated a powerful burst that blew everything in front of him away.

"!!!" The Dryad also noticed the power and turned around, but what she didn't expect was another figure crashing to the ground.

"!!!"

Bam.

The crash sound echoed in everyone's ears as the dust kicked up.

The Dryad was the first to notice and realized it was Ava. She ordered her in anger, "What are you doing? I don't care what state you're in. You're going to kill him. If you can't kill him, then die!"

Theo used his Blink to appear in front of her and hit her. "If you want to kill me, why don't we fight one-on-one?"

"You won't be able to provoke me now." The Dryad snorted, not caring about Theo's situation. "I am going to let you know the feeling of losing your own family."

"Family? Family, you say? You're just a mind-controlling monarch. It's not a family." Theo snorted and pushed her back with all his strength.

The Dryad mustered every ounce of her strength and soon noticed Ava standing up and moving toward them. With this, they should be able to defeat Theo.

However, something unexpected happened.

"Kill—!" The Dryad stopped abruptly as her mind was jolted by extreme pain. She lowered her head and found the rabbit's foot piercing her chest.

The lightning sparked and started burning the body since Ava didn't know whether the Dryad had a heart or not.

"Wha—." The Dryad turned around and saw Ava staring at her. She tried to use her mind to control Ava again, but nothing worked.

Ava was standing behind her and kept spreading her lightning.

"Why?" The Dryad let out her last word before the flower on top of Ava's head disappeared. Suddenly, a small ant jumped off Ava's body.

The ant was so small and had been covered by Ava's fur, making it impossible for her to see it.

After that, the ant turned into a humanoid figure that turned out to be Theo.

"That's because of me." Theo smirked and pointed his hand to the Dryad's head. Without letting her say another word, Theo used his Magic Power to destroy Dryad's head.

Bam.
