Chapter 84

...Yasenia spat a mouthful of blood and looked at Cecile, this time with a forlorn smile. Cecile watched in horror how a hammer hit Yasenia’s face from the side, exploding it into fleshy bits, killing Yasenia on the spot.

Cecile witnessed Yasenia’s lifeless body slumping forwards. She looked at that body with an expression full of disbelief, shaking her head in denial. Her heart felt like a claw was squeezing it, and as her sight blurred, she felt a knot in her throat with whimpers escaping from time to time.

With each step Cecile took, her legs lost strength, coming to a stop. Tears ran down her cheeks as she looked at how the spear wielder took out his spear, smearing blood everywhere.

Then, Cecile’s expression morphed like a demon, and seeing them leaving, she cried with a voice that could freeze hell itself, “WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU ARE GOING!? I AM GOING TO MAKE YOU BASTARDS ESCORT MY LOVE IN DEATH!”

Cecile aimed her bow at them, and she pumped energy crazily through her meridians without caring about the consequences. A giant blue phantom bow appeared behind her! Cecile started to pull the string of her bow, accompanied by a sound of muscles, tendons, and bones ripping apart! Her meridians and dantian ruptured as the skin of her back, chest, and arms split open, smearing her white blue robes and bow with the bright red color of her blood.

Three giant blue, green, and black arrows appeared on the Phantom bow when she tensed her bow into a full bloody moon. Her voice echoed as an agonized cry through the heavens!

“[FREEZING CATASTROPHE]!”

She released the string, and the three arrows left the phantom bow with a shockwave. They fused midair and reached between all the cultivators in what seemed an instant for them. The now triple-colored giant arrow exploded in the middle of all those cultivators, making a catastrophic vortex of Wind, Ice, and Spatial energies. The vortex absorbed all of them into it, grinding them through their agonized cries, ending all of their lives.

While the arrow was traveling, Cecile used the remaining energy, activating a spatial skill, [Blink], to make Yasenia’s body appear beside her. The fact that the skill could only be used with non-living objects made her anguish grow.

Cecile glared with bloodshot eyes at the dying cultivators. The bow fell from her hands as her arms fell limply, unable to use them anymore. She vomited a mouthful of blood, and her legs lost strength, making her fall. However, she had her gaze locked on the vortex. When she confirmed that all of them had died, she finally looked down at the lifeless body.

Yasenia’s body was ripped apart, cut, and mangled, without an arm, without a head, and with a hole through her chest. That always beautifully shining and swishing tail was dim and limp, and because she used it to block, it had cuts and missing scales on some parts.

Cecile leaned forward, pressing her forehead on her navel, washing away the blood on her skin with her tears. “I s-should have *sob* let you *sob* get me pregnant... *Hic* Yasenia p-please... Come back to me....” Her voice at the end was just a sobbing whisper.

On the outside, Tatyana was looking at the screen, her face completely expressionless. Her heart, however, was not that calm. She was repeating in her head, ‘They are juniors, they are juniors, they are juniors....’ If she didn’t do that, she was afraid that she would kill them!

Like she said before, Tatyana’s heart will hurt if Yasenia is injured, but she won’t become angry. However, she just saw her little treasure being slaughtered!

Tatyana sat cross-legged and meditated for ten seconds, controlling her heart in that short amount of time. She stood up, now with a calm heart, mind, and soul. ‘To think I was forced to meditate... My little treasure has more impact on me than I thought. Maybe I should help her strengthen indirectly, enough that I don’t influence her fate with my actions. Making her life harder because of my help is the last thing I want.’

Cecile’s teammates arrived at that moment. Seeing the destruction around, they were completely surprised.

Cecile splashed water at him, lowering its temperature as she did so. “Wha! That is cold! What are you doing, Cecile!?”

The others laughed, and a small smirk appeared on Cecile’s lips. Now that some time has passed, she is more relaxed and has learned a valuable lesson. ‘I have to control these feelings, or they may cause trouble in the future. If I didn’t shout her name, she might have lasted a little more...’

Cecile splashed her face with the water, ‘I have been a little unstable since Yasenia marked me... Get a hold of yourself, Cecile. You have someone to live for again, don’t lose her because of idiocy.’ Cecile’s eyes gained new strength and resolve.

After 4 hours, she was completely healed and went out to the resurrection spot. Yasenia was killed more or less at one o’clock in the morning, so she should revive at eleven o’clock.

Not wanting to lose any more time, Cecile and her group went to the walls and started killing the beast that rampaged toward the city, taking cautiousness of the cultivators around. Besides the level nine and the two level-eight, the last man was at the fifth level, and Kali was also at the fifth level, Cecile being the lowest at the third level.

Going back in time a bit, when Yasenia was dying, she felt very strange. The moment that spear pierced her, she felt intense pain. However, seeing Cecile looking at her with that expression, she tried to maintain her smiling face because she knew that, this time, she was finished.

At first, the hit from the hammer on her head felt like a thousand needles stabbing her brain. However, that disappeared instantly, returning calm to all her senses that had been wailing in pain all this time.

When her sight returned, Yasenia sighed, a little worried about Cecile. ‘I hope my sweetheart doesn’t do something stupid....’

Yasenia looked around and saw that there were 100 screens. They were displaying different battles, landscapes, and the like. She found Cecile in one of them, how she cried, how her face morphed in wrath, her attack that destroyed her upper body, and how she fell to her knees crying on top of her.

Yasenia also teared up, “Don’t worry, sweetheart. We can’t always reach on time as heroes in stories do. That is why I will go beside you as soon as I revive, and I won’t separate from you.”

Yasenia took a deep breath and sat cross-legged, looking at the rest of the screens. “It seems that I am in the upper parts strength-wise, however....”

She looked at those half-step cultivators and smiled bitterly. “I can’t win; even with [Day and night], it would be close... The spiritual sense is too formidable. I don’t really know how much I will improve when I reach the Mental nourishing realm, but right now, I can only run if I come across them.”

She observed the screens trying to find her other girls, but she wasn’t successful. “Well, they not garnering attention is good. They will be safer this way.”

She looked at the rankings and searched for their names. “My sweetheart is in the top 2% of the rankings; those kills must have boosted her rank. Darling is, as expected, also quite high, 100 ranks above Cecile~ Ahn~ She is so awesome~ I want to get dominated by darling again~.”

Yasenia coughed and searched for Angel and Evelyn, “My dear and baby are also doing nicely, in the top 10%! Even if they are the weakest of us, they are quite strong by themselves, and they are proving it. And I’m in the top 5% after losing 10% of my points... I hope I don’t fall out of the 50% and get eliminated while dead... I don’t know at what time they killed me.”

Yasenia spotted Evelyn and Angel on one screen. They were fighting with a group of four cultivators. Yasenia’s tail wagged as she cheered on them, “Go, baby! Go, Dear! Beat them up! Nice laser, his head is gone!... Be careful, dear, behind you!”

Our dear dragoness started shouting at the screen as she saw them fighting. Seeing them win with light injuries made the dragoness puff up her bountiful chest with pride. “I will make their favorite meals after this!”

Her sight turned toward another screen, and she frowned. There was a female harpy with blue feathers surrounded by six cultivators, four males, and two females. However, these cultivators seemed out of it, as if hypnotized. ‘That harpy is a half-step dual cultivator...’

Harpies didn’t wear clothes normally and were very lustful. Similar to their male counterpart, garudas. Yasenia saw the males and females disrobe and they... “attacked” the smiling harpy. In 30 minutes of wild orgy, the Harpy sucked the six of them to death. ‘The scariest thing is that some of those six were also half-steps....’

Similar deaths were happening across the areas... Yasenia became uncomfortable, ‘This is the consequence of the Demonic side taking part in the rule creation. I’m rather worried that this can happen to my dears. Could Angel or Evelyn escape the Harpy? They wouldn’t be able to... I have to reunite with them quickly.’
