Chapter 577: Michelle vs Octopus Part 2

"Shadow Possession."

Black marks began to appear in both Michelles, strengthening her power even further.

Even the octopus knew Michelle would be different from this point on. Not only had she cloned herself, but she also had this power-up.

"Dark Prison." Michelle released the first move, creating a black sphere that blinded the octopus.

This black sphere was visible from the outside and very fragile. The moment it touched a random attack, the black sphere would crumble.

And it happened a split second later.

Despite the occurrence, the octopus instinctively raised all his tentacles, covered all his body because when the light illuminated them again, Michelle had already arrived on top of him, swinging her swords.

"Shadow Slash."

Before the Shadow Slash hit his tentacle, the octopus rolled like a ball to avoid it. However, it was forced to stomp the ground and launch itself into the air.

It turned out Dark Michelle had already arrived behind him, waving her scythes to stop his movement so Michelle could hit him.

"I'm not letting you go." Dark Michelle smirked and raised her hand. The scythes followed her hand movement and flew upward, trying to grasp the octopus.

At this time, the octopus had returned to its normal form and struck all the scythes.

"Tsk." Dark Michelle clicked her tongue and placed her hand on the ground. "Spike."

Her Shadow suddenly emerged and formed a huge spike, growing at unprecedented speed to skewer the octopus.

Because it couldn't move freely in the air, the octopus tried to roll its body to the side and ended up getting pierced on one of its tentacles.

After that, the octopus quickly destroyed the shadow to free himself and landed on the ground next to the water.

The water rose behind him and formed torrential currents. These spirals of water seemed to contain enough pressure to at least break many bones in one's body.

Michelle didn't dare to confront these spirals with her own scythes.

Dark Michelle regrouped with her and glanced at her. "What are we going to do?"

"That's obvious." Michelle smiled.

The octopus sent all the torrential currents to hit both Michelles.

Surprisingly, Michelle and Dark Michelle leaped to the side, avoiding the currents.

"What?!" The octopus thought Michelle would destroy them because of the previous actions. Even so, he hurriedly said, "Haha, to think you would dodge this… Fine, I will slaughter all those animals."

"You're the only animal here." Michelle and Dark Michelle said at the same time.

Suddenly, their scythes started moving and struck the ground.

"Shadow Slash."

Each scythe and sword performed and released the Shadow Slash, creating multiple Shadow Slashes on the ground, cutting the water from the side a few times.

This created a gap between the water, forcing the edge to disperse because the octopus' control had been cut.

"What?!" The octopus widened his eyes.

"Don't underestimate us." Dark Michelle leaped to the front and struck the octopus with her sword.

"Shadow Slash."

Bam.

The tentacle suddenly fell to the ground. In other words, the Shadow Slash managed to cut it.

"Argh!" The octopus screamed in pain.

On the other hand, Michelle's situation wasn't that good either. She dropped to her knees as she started sweating profusely. Michelle even used her hands to support her body from collapsing.

The multiple Shadow Slashes were beyond her power earlier. If only she had trained for another two or three years, she believed the octopus wouldn't be her match.

Unfortunately, she only had a short time. She gritted her teeth and started collecting her composure.

"I can't move for another minute." Michelle kept panting while assessing the situation. She needed to end the fight as soon as possible to preserve her Magic Power.

Dark Michelle already found out about this and kept attacking the octopus.

However, the octopus wasn't a pushover either. The water rose and formed ten tentacles behind him.

All the tentacles were huge and long. They could surely kill her.

"You're the one underestimating me." The octopus snorted and sent the tentacles forward, trying to kill Dark Michelle.

The latter tried her best to avoid them. Her scythes acted as her legs and kept moving around.

The octopus found her weakness and flooded the ground. The water near the scythes erupted and destroyed them.

"No!" Dark Michelle started falling down after losing the support and saw the octopus gathering the water in its mouth.

He then spurted all that water forward, creating a high-pressure eruption that engulfed her.

Luckily, Dark Michelle had linked her thoughts with Michelle, so she knew what was coming. She created a wall of shadow that blocked the water.

Unfortunately for her, it wasn't enough to contain the octopus' attack. However, Dark Michelle only used it to buy her enough time to escape her own predicament, albeit her right hand was still hit by the water and ripped apart from her body.

"Argh!" Both Michelles wailed in pain as their senses seemed to be shared.

"Haha, so that's how it is. Die!" The octopus sent all the water tentacles to smash Dark Michelle.

Little did he know, even though Michelle couldn't move, she could still use her magic from afar.

Michelle's shadow expanded and moved toward Dark Michelle. When it was right below her, a spike emerged.

"What?!" The octopus quickly tried to destroy the spike, but Dark Michelle had utilized it as her foothold. She glided on it before launching herself on top of the octopus.

"No!" The octopus realized what she planned to do. She wanted to kill him by causing mutual destruction. Even though their senses were shared, her death wouldn't mean the same for Michelle.

At the same time, the water octopus couldn't protect her as they were still moving to hit the spike.

The octopus quickly raised all his tentacles to stop her.

However, Dark Michelle re-summoned all her scythes and struck all of them.

"This is the end." Dark Michelle smiled and released another magic. "Shadow Slash."

"!!!" The octopus widened his eyes and saw how the Shadow Slashes moved around his body and cut him into pieces. "Impossi—"

Before he finished his words, his body began to fall apart and buried under the water.

There was still regret in his eyes, but he couldn't do anything more than this.

Michelle spat a mouthful of blood because of the continuous usage of Shadow Slashes, panted a few times and took a deep breath to calm her heart down. She had done everything she could in this fight. However, the war was still going on.

She took pride as the first girl Kai knew, so she always honed herself to the very limit, making sure he came out as the strongest. From the dark magic that evolved into her now shadow magic to her Dark Michelle, she made sure she had the strength to take care of everyone.

After defeating the octopus, the first thought that crossed her mind was none other than to help the others instead of resting for a minute or two.

"Oi!" Michelle called Dark Michelle and planned to discuss the plan.

The moment their eyes intertwined, the two Michelles understood each other and nodded.

Dark Michelle said, "We need to help the weakest link as well as the one that can change the entire battlefield."

"Yeah. I will go for the latter." Michelle nodded.

As soon as they came to an agreement, the two Michelles disappeared.
