Chapter 967 - Three Empresses

As the two flames collided, Syradil raised her eyebrows since the purple flame immediately tried to consume her fire, wanting to assimilate it into itself.

Taking it as a challenge, Syradil smirked as her aura intensified immediately.

With the two flames contesting against one another in power, the Queens that wanted to take advantage of this couldn't even approach since the flames would burn away their bodies almost instantly.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #'ve-become-a-snow-girl_14064812306272705/three-empresses_52236727804295244 for visiting.

As for Shiro, she expected Syradil's flames to be powerful but this was a little crazy. Her avatar is made from tier 8 nanobots and yet they were slowly being melted away.

Not to mention, she had destroyed her nanobots a moment ago when she slammed her palm into her stomach.

'Even though my power is only tier 6, this avatar should be at least tier 7 in strength. For her to be able to shatter parts of the avatar, I don't even think I can fight her normally. My berserk skills focus on increasing my power but don't do much when it comes to my defences. Without ascending to tier 8, I will definitely lose!' Shiro thought to herself. While she could use Extraction, she needed to use it on the being that will arrive with the relic.

Suddenly, both Shiro and Syradil felt danger around them as they quickly separated and put up their guard.

A myriad of insects and beasts surrounded them as they attacked without warning.

Twisting her body, Shiro slashed towards them as a horizontal blade of fire exploded out, cutting them in half.

As for Syradil, she only snapped her finger as motes of fire exploded next to them, charring them to ash instantly.

"I didn't take you for someone that would launch a sneak attack like this." Syradil called out as Arnea revealed herself.

"Well you were occupying my target so I figured I might as well take the shot." Arnea smirked before glaring at Shiro.

"I know I'm cute, you don't have to stare so intensely. I might get embarrassed." Shiro acted bashful as Arnea could already feel like a vein was about to burst.

Ignoring Shiro, Arnea looked at Syradil.

"You can get the artefact if you want. I just want her life." Arnea said as Syradil laughed.

"You know, I didn't care if you killed her or not a moment ago. But now that you've attacked me too, let's just say I'm not one to let someone hit me without punishment. Whitey, I don't really need help killing her but you can join in to get some EXP." Syradil smirked as Shiro raised her eyebrow.

"Aren't you here for the relic?"

"Pft, I can get the relic after I kill her. Plus, it's not like the other Queens are able to hinder me by much." Syradil laughed before cracking her neck.

"Enough talking, keep up if you can." Disappearing from her spot, Syradil charged towards Arnea as Shiro rolled her eyes.

"Of course I'll keep up, who the hell do you think I am?"

Charging forth with her sword, Shiro decided to kill Arnea first. While it would be more beneficial to team up to kill Syradil, the fact that Arnea wanted to kill her would easily make this a dangerous two vs one. If two empresses attacked her at the same time, she wouldn't be able to do much.

Following behind Syradil, Shiro flexed her fingers as several sigils appeared on her body. Applying some buffs to the two of them, Shiro focused her senses and activated boundary. She was going to act as support for Syradil since she was stronger in terms of physical prowess.

Raising her eyebrow, Syradil was a little surprised at the buffs that Shiro could give her since it was more powerful than she had expected.

With her impression of Shiro improving with each second, Syradil decided that she'll observe for a little bit after killing Arnea. She wanted to see what Shiro would do with the artefact if she obtained it.

Twisting her body, Syradil grappled towards Arnea who sent a swarm of creatures towards her.

But before they could even reach Syradil, a web of slashes appeared, cutting the creatures in half as Shiro's shadow could be seen behind Syradil.

Stomping down, a tier 6 magic circle appeared behind Arnea as lightning flashed out, striking Arnea's back.

*BANG!!!!

Gritting her teeth, Arnea dashed towards Syradil with bones protruding from her body.

Dashing forward fearlessly, Syradil grabbed the bones without fear. She could sense that Arnea wanted her to grab the bones but with her passive skills, she was cleared from most negative effects.

Keeping a firm hold on the bones, she slammed Arnea's body down as her knee cracked against her cranium.

*CRACK!!!!

Hearing the bones break, Arnea's head shattered in half as Syradil could see rows upon rows of teeth trying to chew into her leg.

Green flames erupted out of her as she could feel her body being healed.

Glancing back at Shiro, Syradil smirked before grabbed 'Arnea' and flung her body behind Shiro.

Just as the body passed her, Shiro brushed her finger along the body as nanobots exploded out, stabbing into the real Arnea that had appeared behind her.

Grabbing her sheath, she made a small signal towards Syradil before making a gauntlet on her right hand.

Stepping on the sheath, Syradil braced herself since she noticed that Shiro wanted to use the sheath as a spring board of sorts.

*BANG!!

Punching the sheath with her gauntlet that had been enforced with several spells, Syradil's body was launched towards Arnea as nanotech blades appeared around her.

Before Arnea could even react, Syradil created two bone wh.i.p.s that latched onto her neck and dragged Arnea closer.

With the nanotech blades tearing into her flesh, Arnea gritted her teeth as her blood poured out without restraint.

Shattering her body apart, the blood evaporated into a mist that filled the area.

Unfortunately for Arnea, it wasn't even able to last for a second before it was all filtered thanks to Shiro's nanotech.

Glaring at the two in anger, Arnea slammed her hands together as Shiro sensed danger.

Without hesitation, she activated the upgraded version of Celestial Path!

Mana suddenly disappeared in a 300 meter radius around them as the three of them started to fall towards the ground.

The magic that Arnea had been preparing was shattered apart as she could only widen her eyes at the duo who were able to follow up with one another. Syradil was responsible for close quarters combat that protected Shiro while Shiro provided support through a myriad of spells.

Now that her mana was sealed for the time being, Arnea could only raise her arms as Syradil reached for her head.

Grabbing Arnea's wrist, Syradil dragged down her guard before elbowing her in the mouth.

"The real one." Syradil smirked since she could tell that this was Arnea's true body.

Using her spare hand, she jabbed Arnea's throat and quickly dislocated her jaw. With most of Arnea's attention being placed on her jaw, Syradil took this opportunity to punch her chest, shattering her ribs as the bones pierced her organs.

Coughing up a mouthful of blood, Arnea could only glare at Syradil hatefully and stuck out her tongue. There was a rune etched on the surface as it flickered for a moment before her eyes became dull.

Seeing this, Syradil furrowed her brows for a moment before clicking her tongue.

"What a slippery one. Tch, killing her is going to be a pain." Syradil cracked her neck before glancing back at Shiro who had a frown on her face.

Even though mana was sealed away for a moment, the rune that Arnea had activated didn't use mana. It wasn't Divine energy either nor was it Celestial Energy that Shiro had used before. It was something different.

However, that wasn't the problem right now. The problem was that it's just the two of them again.

Readying her sword, Shiro was about to attack when Syradil turned around.

"I've had enough fun for now. You can grab the relic if you want since I don't have any need for it. Though of course, if you want to duke it out some more, I'm more than happy to oblige." Syradil smiled as her aura flared.

'She doesn't seem to be lying. If I continue to fight her, I'll be using quite a bit of energy. It's probably better to conserve this against the other Queens that want the relic. I just need to guard the area until the relic fully materialises. When that happens, I can fire the weapon without worry. It's best that I avoid fighting her for now I suppose.'

Taking a deep breath, Shiro kept her eye on Syradil before teleporting away.

Seeing that Shiro had disappeared, Syradil chuckled to herself. Looking around for a moment, she wanted to find a good vantage point. She wanted to see what Shiro would do.

After all, the artefact that will appear soon is a Corrupted Artefact.

The only thing it's good for is mass destruction.
