Chapter 279 Death Butterfly Vs The Holy Paladin



Eris flew down like a burning butterfly. Two dark bat wings spread from her lower back, and two large purple plasma ones from her upper shoulders.

The ground started melting beneath her feet as she landed, glaring at Lydia with a smile. She swung her spear around, and a large blade extended from the tip, shaping it into a scythe.

Lydia clenched her teeth, pointing her sword forward and taking a deep painful breath of scorching air.

"The unholy child of red and blue dragons, mixed with the vampires' filth," She growled, looking at Eris.

"I'm far beyond what you can win against," Eris smiled, hitting her scythe pommel on the ground, causing an explosion. [Scorching Heat Requiem]

GRWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! All the scorching goblin plasma skeleton rushed at Lydia at once, surrounding her in a deathly trap.

Everyone on the battlefield felt sick in their stomachs from the heat and necrotic magic of Eris's vampiric blood magic. Normal people quickly fell to their knees, gasping for air and sweating as the field ignited.

"Lydia!" Aella screamed.

CLAP! A golden lightning strike fell from the sky, and the skeletons burned in to ask. BAM! Lydia walked forward. Each of her steps quaked the ground as she lifted a spectral golden flag.

"What an extreme link with the gods," Eris smiled, "In a holy war, you would be the flag bearer, won't you?" She smiled.

Thud! Lydia stabbed the flag on the ground, creating a safe zone and rushing forward at Eris. She swung her sword, [Holy Smite]

SWOSH! Eris dodged the strike and slashed at Lydia with her scythe.

Lydia swung her sword up, [Divine cleaver] CLAP!

Eris's scythe exploded with a thunderclap the moment it touched Lydia's blade. "It's a thin balance you have there between the blood, fire, and lighting magic." She growled.

KA-DOM! Lydia felt a heavy blow at her side, and her vision went dark for a second, finding herself stuck to the wall.

"Who said what?" Eris glared at her with a smile, "You aren't as fast as me," She had already recreated her scythe.

CRACK! Lydia fell to the ground, barely standing up. Her armor burned and seared her skin.

CLICK! Lydia lifted her sword up, looking at Eris. ^She's strong, but I need to take her down.^ She smiled, the purple flames heating her armor shifted into a warm golden color.

"No one else will die!" Lydia shouted, and a compressed aura of divine magic started raging from her body.

Eris laughed, "I fought my share of priests and paladins that wanted to hunt vampires. Some were far stronger than you. But no stood with such injuries."

Lydia stared at Eris, ^I would die if I charged at her, but I must kill her. I have no other choice than to damage her as much as I can in a single.^

^Protection. A paladin should be the first and last one to die. No one behind them shall be harmed.^ Lydia took a deep breath of the searing heat.

^Vengance. No mercy for the wicked. A paladin should be the first one to raise their blade in the face of evil.^

[Divine Cleaver] Lydia blasted forward engulfed in searing divine flame, swinging her sword toward Eris's neck.

Eris smiled, swinging her scythe up to deflect Lydia's slash.

CLAP! The scythe exploded into sparks of purple flames as it touched Lydia's blade, unable to stop it.

Eris tilted her head to the side, ducking below the slash and swinging her fist at Lydia's stomach.I think you should take a look at

STAB! Lydia shifted her torso to about a spinal hit, taking the stab on her left side. She then dragged her blade down at Eris's head. CLAP!

It only took a fraction of a second, and everything exploded when Lydia's divine cleaver hit.

"Lydia!" Aella Shouted. Her body finally healed enough, and she could stand.

When the dust cleared, she saw Lydia coughing blood with Eris's right arm jammed into her stomach and coming from her back.

Lydia's sword cut Eris from the left shoulder down to the stomach, but she was already healing the wound.

"See, you won't win," Eris looked at Lydia's eyes, "No with your level of strength." She tried to pull her arm.

CRACK! Eris blinked, and her arm was stuck in Lydia's body. All thank to [Improved Life force] preventing her from losing consciousness.

"You won't go anywhere. GRWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Lydia growled, screaming her lungs out, and her body burst into holy flames, searing Eris's body. [Channel Divinity] Lydia pleaded to the gods, and they agreed instantly to grant her the power to burn the vampire.

Eris could feel her skin disintegrating. Lydia was keeping her in place by using her divine magic to weaken and keep her arm in place.

"Let me go!" Eris screamed. ^I would really die like this!^ She swung her fist at Lydia's head.

Thud! Lydia grabbed Eris's wrist with her palm, "I won't let you go," She increased the intensity of her holy magic.

"Then I will burn you before you burn me!" Eris ignited her body in purple plasma, trying to counter Lydia's holy flames.

A touring clash between golden holy flames and Purple plasma rose to the sky in a spiraling tornado as the two women screamed.

Aella pulled her bow, aiming at the flames but she couldn't tell where Lydia or Eris were. It was too bright to look at.

Thud! CRACK! A weird steel arm stopped beside Eris's head, and the wrist bent down revealing a black, four-tube barrel.

BAM! A fiery explosion rushed out, sending a round steel ball that blasted Eris's head to bits, and the flames stopped.

In that instant, Lydia's flames burned Eris's arms, and she fell on her back, bleeding.

"Lydia!" Jack cried, pulling a large healing potion and pouring it on Lydia's stomach. "Please hold out. We will get you treated immediately.

He looked at her, and the situation was bad. Lydia was unresponsive, bleeding buckets from her stomach.

CRACKLE! CRACKLE! Jack felt something vibrating on his waist, and as he looked, it was the wakizashi he got from that demon.

Jack pulled the blade and he could see the sun symbol on it glowing with divine magic. He could only feel one thing, a compelling feeling to leave it with Lydia.

[Blessing of the sun: Amaterasu]

CRACK! Jack felt a warm gust of air behind him. He turned and saw a massive red drakaina with chains around her neck, glaring at him as Eris healed in the back.

"What?" He gasped.

BAM! Jack could see a massive purple dragon appear out of nowhere as if he was a camouflaged lizard and started walking toward Aella.

"I finally found you," The purple dragon growled.
