Chapter 388 Back To The Wall. 2



"It's likely. But don't forget they are not the only ones to have us in their sights."

"I know, but the best thing is to focus on our current enemies. Their sudden manifestations don't announce anything good. Moreover, what does this woman do with the survivors?" Shadow changed subjects by looking at a particular succubus who helped Sabrina and the rescue teams to cure the wounded.

"I don't know. She probably had to land here, taking advantage of the chaos. You had surely teleported her with the others in the city without realizing it." Heepha frowned as she advanced this hypothesis.

"...Sigh, she doesn't represent a danger. But let's keep an eye on her; you never know."

"Um."

--

"Lady Rina, we need your help; we have an injured person who exceeds our care skills." Inside the city, Henia rushed to Sabrina, who was taking care of a vampire who had lost the lower half of her body.

"Tsk, I'm currently trying to prevent another one from dying. Asks someone else." She retorted without looking away at her patient, who was between life and death.

"But... Linnaella and Serena are currently busy treating other cases more serious than yours. In addition to that, Sebass is--

"I know, but we can't save everyone. This leads us to take foolish measures by prioritizing the strongest. In any case, the weak couldn't survive, given the future skirmishes that we'll have. Check the identity of each injured person and see if they had made efforts to investigate body and soul in their missions. They're the most important, it's painful, but we have no other means available." She retorted these words by grinding her teeth.

"...I understand. But why do little Heepha and this Dalvine bastard stay there without giving us their help?"

"Sigh, it's because they--

"It's because they need to keep their powers in the event of an invasion." Before Sabrina finished explaining the situation to Henia, Yasmine took the lead and explained the situation.

"..." Sabrina frowns at her.

But the next moment, she was silent and continued to take care of other injuries without further delay.

"W-Who are you?" But unlike her, Henia became alarmed by noticing the aura of Yasmine, who no longer tried to hide her energy.

"Don't take care of her; we don't have time to linger with insignificant details." Sabrina retorted to Henia.

'Insignificant details? This woman is abnormally powerful to be a little hat.' Despite her lament, she submitted to her mistress's request and returned to her post.

"Dear to meet you, child of-- or should I say, new captai-

"Don't bother me if the others haven't called you yet, what they think you will be useful to us. So put your hand on your paw instead of coming to bother me without anything." Sabrina stopped her before she finished her sentence.

The woman Shadow and Heepha spoke of was this succubus, who was nonother than Renia, the transcendent who had posed as an intermediate divine mage to learn about Alvine.

Just as Shadow and Heepha had just concluded, she was indeed in the kingdom of Alvine when Reha and Shadow were fighting.

And it's partly thanks to her help that many of the subordinates from Alzania are alive. It was her mysterious and incomprehensible contribution that allowed her to stay on this planet, even though both noticed her.

"Don't worry; I didn't come here to waste your time. But rather to tell you that you will have to sweat more than expected." While pronouncing these words with a mysterious smile, a large amount of raw energy compresses into her body and implodes the next moment with a small boom.

"Huh?!" Sabrina frowns towards her, not knowing what kind of low blow she is preparing to commit.

But this mistrust lasted only a while before she understood Yasmine's intentions.

'Here is a rare phenomenon. As I predicted, this girl is more powerful than my estimates.' She murmured with a sigh of relief.

"Don't waste time; I can only maintain this spell for five minutes. So hurry up from--

"It will be more than enough!" Sabrina replied, looking around her.

Apart from her and the three other primordials, including Assiaphir Gleph'nir, Galiel's daughter, all the others in the barrier surrounding the city were frozen in time.

Unlike Ferda, the queen of time, Yasmine's temporal power was far superior to hers.

She not only froze their bodies but their minds and everything that went with them (energy, bleeding, and even surrounding auras.).

"In this case, I'll let you do it. I'm curious to see your versatile concept at work." She pronounced these words with sparkling eyes of curiosity.

But she didn't receive an answer from Sabrina.

Instead of wasting her time responding to her words, which solely inflamed her ego, Sabrina, always in her primordial form, takes action.

She closes her eyes while checking the numbers of wounded at the end of their lives, thanks to her primordial perception.

And three seconds later, she opened her eyes, whose pupils were blood-red.

|Blood concept: Life's Seeds.|

She murmured, followed by the explosion of her aura that broke into the frozen and colorless city!

-Vallaaaam!!!

And the next moment, her mana slowly envelops all those missing limbs or damaged cores in a golden cocoon-like caterpillar that had not yet begun its mutation.

Yasmine frowns while looking at Sabrina with her body sweaty.

'Fufu, I knew she was powerful, but at this point, she reached the highest rank that a primordial can achieve.

-The only explanation for this dazzling progression is that she has received a significant amount of energy from the evolutionary seed!

-Sigh, you have to be either the worst of idiots or the most ignorant to make this guy an enemy. In addition to not knowing how to eradicate the soul of a supreme being, it's impossible to seal this type definitively. I understood it when I saw him escape to my ultimate sealing bucket.

-I thought that by preventing any shade from subsisting, he would lose his shadow powers. Still, apparently, I was an idiot for underestimating the other unique attributes that go hand in hand with him.' She murmured as she looked at Sabrina with appalling eyes.

The latter did not take long to act.

The next moment, her primordial energy suddenly softens, followed by another phenomenon unknown to Yasmine.

-Plop, plop, plop....

Her energy, which became as soft and fluid as the lake's water, crystallized into hundreds of tiny golden bubbles around her.

'-! Can she even crystallize her mana and create blood? Sigh, I wonder why I'm surprised. But if she manages to do that, it means that she will be able to use her concept without running out of energy. Every twenty drops of primordial blood contain as much energy as a spiritual stone of primordial rank.

But for a primordial being, ten primordial stones are more than enough to restore her energy fully. And since she manages to create primordial blood thanks to the powers of her concept, this means that she will not need a mana stone to restore her energy.

-Heh, I now understand why this damn concept is called versatile. In addition to being defensive and offensive, it even has healing characteristics and other unique factors that are supposed to be independent. I never thought I would envy an inferior being one day; she's cheating.'

And as if she were not inflicted enough, Sabrina's following actions nailed her beak.

This latter's shadow wobbles under her feet and clones with the same appearance as she emerged in the shadow of the wounded.

"..."

While she could no longer know if it was related to the affinity of darkness or that of Alvine, she had her answer by seeing the hundreds of golden bubbles sink into Sabrina's shadow and appear in the cocoons that enveloped the wounded.

"That's enough; you can revoke your spell." Sabrina's roque voice, due to her exhaustion, sounds in her eardrums, awakening her in her dismay.

"Eu... Um, if you think it's enough, then everything is fine." She said with a snap of her fingers, followed by a sudden draught that had accumulated around the city.

But Sabrina, for her part, didn't care about this detail.

"To you now." She ordered the clones that she had created beforehand before everything began.

Following her order, the hundreds of clones set to work with their bland expressions.

They manipulated the bubbles they received from Sabrina towards the bodies of the wounded.

And at the contact of the bubbles with the wounded, they burst and release a large amount of primordial vital energy they contain.

Yasmine did not focus on the wounded who regenerated but on Sabrina, who had just sacrificed a large amount of vital energy.

Seeing her colorless face and dry lips, she didn't need to ask what was wrong with Sabrina.

"Are you sure you are safe? Suddenly losing such vital energy must have repercussions even for you who control--!

She stopped mid-sentence when she saw Sabrina surround herself with a cocoon similar to the others but with more vital energy than the latter.

"Tsk, I didn't say anything." She says with a frustrated smile.

--

"Ho? They turned out to be more useful than expected, these two girls." Having witnessed the whole scene, Heepha felt a weight on her shoulders weaken when she saw the unexpected collaboration between Sabrina and Renia.

"Kuku, you were wrong to underestimate her. She doesn't just shine by her skills. Her management talent rivals Luna's when the latter was at her peak." Shadow retorted with a triumphal smile.

"Hohoo? It's rare to see you compliment someone else. But what surprised me more was to see you persist so that I let this girl absorb some of the power of the evolutionary seed. But I now realize that she deserved this reward. Even if she could not draw much from it, she had unexpected progress for someone of her caliber." Heepha also nods while focusing on Sabrina.

"Kuku, you are the only one who underestimated this great self, although I don't need your compliments."

"I know, I know, although you are a little stupid, you manage to assume your responsibilities in rare times. You are an idiot, but an idiot with his head on his shoulders. And even if your idiocy is terrific, it should not be put aside. After all, it is because of this idiocy that the--

"Tsk, Stop pissing me off, Heepha. If you want to compliment me, make a little effort, at least." Shadow's triumphant smile stiffens by finally guessing Heepha's intentions.

-D000M

-!!

But the next moment, the two had solemn expressions feeling the ruthless energy coming from afar.

[[Tsk, I knew they would reapply, but it's too early.]] Heepha slams her tongue by retorting these words with dark eyes that have nothing to do with the jovial smile she had not two seconds ago.

[[No, they actually took more time than expected; it doesn't tell me anything that's worth it!]] Shadow also retorted with an expression no better than his colleague.

[[Sigh, it's up to me to take the reins, it seems.]]

[[... Pay attention to yourself; these beasts are not small frets for us. We no longer have our--

[[I know. But thanks to them, we won't have to worry about running out of food. I'M GOING TO ORGANIZE A BANQUET WITH THEIR MEATS TO WELCOME OUR LORD!]]
