"Aguinaldo... How dare he do that to Aguinaldo!!!?" With his face pale as a sheet, Marcelo muttered.
The other boy next to him was equally pale. The fear he felt at that moment was no less than that of Marcelo.
Maicon and Elijah were in no better position. If the other two didn't know better, they were sure that Amon didn't care about them enough to do something similar or worse than he had done to Aguinaldo.
Maisa looked at Elijah and said with a chuckling tone, "Now, I wonder what that little birdie is that flies over your head, Elijah? Is it just me or is it carrying a piece of paper with big letters written on it: FEAR?"
"F-FEAR?" Elijah bit his tongue and stuttered, perhaps from the sudden question. He took a step back, but his legs were weak and made him look like a scaredy cat, however, he still said, "Who's scared?"
"Pfffft!" Maisa laughed loudly to the point of holding her belly with both of her hands.
As for the monsters that were coming their way? Well, Ariel managed to deal with most of them and used their bodies to bump into the others and delay their arrival.
The 'conversation' was so interesting, she didn't want to have any interruptions. After she had done that, she even added as she looked at Maicon, "Looks like it's not just 'fearful Elijah' who has a little bird flying over his head~~"
Although her voice was so provocative and full of sarcasm, it was so seductive at the same time. It contradicted itself in an impressive way.
"Ariel, you..." Maicon was repulsed. He said resentfully, "I have always loved you and done everything for you, so why, why do you treat me like this?"
"Tsk, since when does anyone like it when a stalker keeps stalking them? At least I don't. My taste isn't that strange," Ariel said dismissively, but kept her smile, "It's one thing to like me, however, I've rejected you more than once and told you to give it up, yet there you go with that puppy dog face of yours, making it look like you've been wronged. Jeez, having you chase me is repulsive. You disgust me!"
In the end, she didn't keep smiling. For a long time she had hated this boy who wouldn't leave her alone. The most frustrating thing was that he thought that because he liked her he could chase her all over the place. Even when she transferred schools, this boy chased her around like an annoying tick.
Staggering from the shock of her words, Maicon found it hard to support himself. His expression became distorted as he stared wildly at Ariel. His eyes looked like a reptile's, in constant disarray, but they always turned back toward Ariel's direction. Staggering toward her, his right hand reached out.
With his mouth hanging open for a moment, he began to speak, "How can you say that to me? I love you so, so much! How can you say that to me? Huh? Huh? Ariel! Ariel, I love you more than anyone! I'm handsome, I have a good family background, I got into a good university, I'm able to protect you all my life! All of this, for you! Ariel, oh Ariel, believe me, no one will ever be like me!"
"Whew~ I hope so! I don't want a second madman running after me," Ariel sighed exaggeratedly as she placed her right hand on her chest. Soon her gaze became more fierce. "That said... die!"
"Wait...!" As Maicon felt some sort of pressure, he didn't have a good feeling.
Suddenly, a mocking laugh sounded, "As if she has any reason to listen to your excuses. Just die along with your 'master'."
Barbara was the one who said that. Ariel looked at her a little surprised, but then raised her thumb in approval.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!"
With unbearable pain, Maicon's arms and legs were pulled out by an invisible force, causing him to lie in an awkward position in the shape of an "H" on the ground. The worst part was that because it had happened so fast, his two quail eggs hit the ground hard. Although it was not like in the movies when they made an eggshell cracking sound, still, the men around felt pain along with him.
Maicon's wailing cry was even worse, and he wanted to move his hands to protect his family jewels, however, he could not exert enough strength to go against Ariel's power. The look of surprise and fear in his eyes was priceless. Maicon had always believed he would be stronger than Ariel and therefore he would 'protect' her forever and ever, but now harsh reality came knocking on his door.
At the same time that Ariel attacked Maicon, Maisa attacked Elijah. Amon didn't intend to meddle for the moment. Like him, the girls had grown stronger; it would be good to have someone to act as a punching bag for the girls to get used to their increased strength. As for himself, someone who doesn't even have a genetic factor created would not be of any benefit for target practice.
Elijah already sensed that he would die. He thought about running away, but it seemed that, just like Maicon, he also underestimated the advancement of the girls. Just a small demonstration of power shown by Barbara was enough for him to better understand his current situation.
The other members of the group were already trembling with fear. After all, earlier they too had been mocking these women, now... Well, they were no better than inmates waiting to be electrocuted in the electric chair.
"Amon, don't interfere!" Barbara looked at him and said.
"Mm." Amon nodded slightly. He had not intended to interfere in every way. He said, "I will just go deal with the monsters."
Without waiting, Amon had already distanced himself from them.
"Huh, what?" Elijah thought he was hallucinating. At no point had he taken his eyes off Amon when he heard him speak. He even opened his eyes wide as if to look for bread crumbs on his clothes.
After searching for a few seconds, Elijah was able to find where Amon was... or rather, he looked in the direction from where he had heard a loud sound and that's when he saw a monster flying towards the blood-eating tree.
