Chapter 1504: An Unexpected Challenge!

When did this happen?! I really didn't see it happen at all! Was it because I am exhausted? Ugh! Luminous got parasitized by fucking Pereza's true body! Agh, my body is already super tired, I overused Daos and the Divine Authority, after using them, I get a strong exhaustion and burden, and need to rest for a bit before fully recovering, but now this happens out of nowhere! Did she plotted this from the beginning?

"You're that Demon?! How did you do it?!" Elfina asked in between tears.

"Milady, don't try to reason with the demon!" Said Fiere.

"Heh, I might as well humor you in your last seconds of life. I managed to do it quite easily. The moment that stupid summon of yours reached my Demon Core and crushed it, I latched over the dragon when he least expected it. You idiots really lowered your guards when you saw my core cracking, you really thought it was over, huh? Well, it was far from over! The owner of this body even deactivated the barrier because it was too energy consuming… Hahaha!"

Pereza laughed, revealing the whole process while doing so. How cocky can you get, bitch? Well, for now, the mission is getting Pereza out of Luminous' system. But how can I even do that? My entire body feels pain and I am too exhausted. I am currently using Purification over my body just to refill my HP bar but my MP took a big hit. I cannot use the Dao of Drain endlessly either, I have to wait a few minutes before using Daos again, the burden in my small soul is strong after all.

Because I completely died back in Genesis, the powerful Soul I had which was inherited from my mother, Chaos, is gone. Now I have a simple soul that emerged out of natural creation through the Summoning ritual of Elfina. It had grown stronger and mutated ever since I got certain skills, regaining divinity and even the shattered Origin Core I once had, but even then, I don't possess the same endless soul stamina of before.

Meanwhile, Luminous sustained a lot of damage still, and also has less than half his MP, but it is recovering at a faster speed than me as he got pretty amazing stats, he's stronger than me in various aspects but I am still better at getting rid of things because he specializes in healing and protecting others as a god of light. However, now that Pereza is parasitizing him, he seems to have gained a boost in stats and new skills as well… Shit.

Comparing the two… it is rather obvious I am going to get my ass kicked. Especially because it's taking a while for my shell to heal, I am half cracked, if it cracks even more through receiving more hits, I'll shatter into pieces and my slimy and disgusting interior is going to come out of the cocoon shell and I'll die miserably. Maybe I can still escape? No, I cannot let Elfina and Fiere to their deaths, that would be wrong. They're now practically my friends, I've battled with them cooked for them, and saw them smile. There's no way I am leaving them to die.

Then what can I do? I have to think! Through the battle, I ate a lot of Pereza's flesh and absorbed tons of her HP and MP, so I was also recovering, but in the last seconds of the fight when I had to run away from her collapsing carcass, I lost most of it. However, my belly through Overeating is still full… Wait, I can use that!

Consume and Digest!

I quickly decided to spend the rest of my MP into doing this while Pereza spoke about how she did managed to get Luminous, quickly infusing Mana into my own internal stomach and hastening the consumption and digestion of food, therefore, HP and MP quickly began to regenerate… my cracks were still there, but through constant usage of Purification, they had already recovered, but there were still scars that were quite soft. Can I do it?

It really depends in how much Pereza lowers her guard, but even then, it's not going to be easy at all. It will be a big challenge, one that is already making my caterpillar blood pump a bit. Despite the desperate situation… This is an interesting challenge. I've always wondered what it would be like to fight Luminous after all!

"Hehe, you're probably thinking about killing me, right? But you can't. If you try to kill me. I will use this barrier to defend, and I can even use all of this dragon's healing spells as well! I am pretty much invisible right now… And even if you try to hit me, you'll end up hitting your dear friend and god! Also, if you kill me, Luminous will die as well, I've connected my lifeblood with him, and even my fleshy tendrils reached his heart! He's me and I am him!" Laughed Pereza.

So her entire body had completely parasitized him then… It is as if she were doing something similar to merging with him. How can I get her out of him then? A way to break through her… Maybe if I destroy her soul? But can that truly work?

"And I am going to start with the strongest and the most annoying of you three. You, the cocoon!" Pereza looked at me with Luminous crimson-red eyes, her entire aura fusing with Luminous formed a bizarre combination of both darkness, poison, and light… It was both frightening and concerning.

I have to be careful if I don't want to kill Luminous! I don't know if I will be able to forgive myself if I do that to my friend, especially because he's the last god. I don't have the power to revive others, even the [Revival] Skill costs thousands of Skill Points and can only be used right after someone dies, I cannot simply stall for time until I get the points and use the skill, I wont be able to revive him by then.

"So? What will you do? Will you chicken out or simply kill your former comrade?"
