Adhara declared loudly without a hint of fear in her eyes, she blatantly said that to Azzen's face.
Humanity believed that the Shapeshifter was the most witted out of the Supernatural races since they can shapeshift into anything and definitely relies on trickery, but Adhara has learned through her own experience that it was not the Shapeshifter that rely the most on trickery.
It was the Demons instead, even though they were the last race that needs to rely on trickery.
Since demons were considered a battle race as their numbers can be replenished through unknown methods, they doesn't need to use trickery. If they wanted to, they can fight a number game sending demon after demon into the battle.
Knowing that it's logical to think that they don't need to use trickery in their fight.
But ever since the Demonic Cities incident which suddenly attacked humanity, Adhara now knows that the demons are the one that likes to use trickery in their fight. Because of that, she's always doubtful and careful every time the word demon is involved.
Just like this current moment, she was very perceptive in fighting the Supernatural army.
A moment ago while fighting the Werewolves she realized that these Werewolves doesn't have any killing intent, and even the injuries she suffered were not aimed at her vital parts. Only a few scratches here and there.
Instead of the intention to kill, they are more likely to try to capture her instead.
Only the Alpha that attacked her before realized that they can't capture Adhara without hurting her, which is why that Alpha attacked ruthlessly trying to wear her out. But still, there's no intention to kill in each of the strikes.
Adhara realized it even more when she saw the Supernatural surround her and Gistella.
If they are really fixated on wanting to kill both of them, then they should've already died the moment Azzen came here. The moment when Azzen didn't try to kill both of them and summoned his pet instead is the moment when Adhara realized what was going on.
These Supernaturals that gathered here are aiming for Rex, they really wanted to kill Rex.
While she was fighting with the three-headed Demon Dog, Adhara tries to think of a reason why these Supernaturals doesn't want to kill her and Gistella. If they wanted to kill Rex, then what's the point of keeping the Silverstar Pack members alive?
Now she finally pieces in the puzzle, and what Azzen did earlier prove that she was right.
"Adhara! What are you doing?!", Gistella shouted from the side.
Oblivious to what was going on Gistella was caught off guard seeing Adhara taunt Azzen like that. No matter what she thought, Azzen is a ninth-rank realm demon that can kill both of them in a blink of an eye.
It's good that Azzen decided to play with them, this allows them to buy more time.
Kyran is still in the evolution process, Flunra is still fighting, and Rex is also fighting King Baralt and Queen Catsha right now. Clearly, they need to buy more time and Azzen provides a way for that. If not then they would be dead already.
Not just Azzen but the Incubus and Werewolves circling them have their expression darkened.
But ignoring Gistella's worried remarks, Adhara shakes her head before putting both of her hands on her waist while still wearing a cheeky smirk, "Who would've thought that even with the immeasurable power of a ninth-rank realm, you still feel fear like a weak little Supernatural..."
Swoosh...
Azzen's demonic energy started to sway around his body like a blazing fire upon hearing this.
Despite everything that he has been through to reach this point in his life, he has already sworn to not be mocked by humans again. But despite the one mocking him being a Werewolf, the words coming out of her mouth still somewhat sting him.
Probably due to the fact that Adhara is once a human that has been turned into a Werewolf.
Slowly raising his trembling red eyes that are trying to contain the anger burning within, Azzen glares at Adhara that seems to not be worried at all despite the crushing aura that is already weighing on her shoulders.
Shing!
Gistella swiftly created a barrier to protect the two of them from the crushing aura.
But as if it was not enough, Adhara then continues with a tilt of her head, "My eyes can see your riled-up emotions. You're angry, that's good... that means I'm right. Should I spill the reason why you can't kill us or would you say it yourself?"
Upon saying that, Adhara paused waiting for an answer from Azzen.
Despite already waiting for a good ten seconds, Adhara didn't get any answer and this made her smile even wider, "No? Okay then, I'll spill it out for you. The reason why you can't kill us is that Rex is still alive, and you're scared that if you kill us he will be angry and his power will spike"
"How embarrassing, three against one and still needing to resort to this...", she added.
Having enough of the trash-talk that came out of Adhara's mouth, Azzen's aura exploded violently, shattering Gistella's barrier completely and forcing Adhara and Gistella to kneel on the ground. It was an outburst of anger inside of him.
"Careful... you might kill us. You don't want us to die just yet", Adhara said mockingly.
Azzen slowly descends a little bit to be close enough to Adhara and Gistella, he then asks with his red eyes flashing vibrantly, "Even if you know that, what can you do except watch your Alpha dies in front of you?"
Upon hearing this Adhara laughs as if she just heard something funny.
"I'm not worried about him at all, he'll take care of those small fries in a bit. As for your question, knowing that fact changes everything completely!", Adhara shouted before she forcefully circulates her power and stands back up.
Glancing at Gistella, the both of them nodded their heads.
Swoosh!
Without even needing to communicate what they are going to do, Gistella instantly activates her bronze scales once again before creating even stronger barriers to sustain the suppressing aura around her own body and also Adhara's body.
Gistella then controls her own energy and shrinks the barrier until it rests perfectly on the skin.
Even though devouring other Supernaturals or Awakened would make her stronger, she also doesn't only rely on that and train her energy control in secret. Now she can shrink the barrier like this, and it becomes condensed and thus stronger.
Upon seeing this Azzen was surprised and confused, his eyes then shifted over to Adhara.
After the suppressing force got lifted off of her shoulders the bloodline energy started to become stronger again before it flashed, exploding the Werewolves' eyes that circled them. Immediately after that, she dashed straight toward the Supernaturals and started a fight again.
Cloaking her claws with the White Omicron energy, Adhara cuts down the Werewolves around.
On top of that Gistella also heads over to the Incubus and started to attack them too, and this baffles Azzen as he can't believe that he was ignored by the two of them. With him here, he can just tie Adhara and Gistella's bodies and restraint the both of them until it was all over.
Seeing that the two of them are butchering Supernaturals left and right, Azzen did exactly that.
Pointing his two hands toward Gistella and Adhara, Azzen controls his demonic energy to wrap around both of their bodies. But as soon as he wanted to squeeze both of them, he frowned when he received some kind of resistance.
Upon feeling this resistance, Azzen squinted his eyes and saw a glowing rune that causes this.
It was the ancient rune engraved by Flunra earlier, the rune that gave them an Anti-Energy passive skill. The ancient rune reacted when it feels a powerful energy surrounding Adhara and Gistella, and that causes it to fight the demonic energy back.
Adhara and Gistella smiled lightly feeling the demonic energy unable to grasp them.
But instead of dissuading Azzen from doing it, the resistance makes him even angrier as he puts in more demonic energy and tries even harder. As his demonic energy pierces through the Anti-Energy resistance, Adhara suddenly points at the sky and said.
"Careful now, the barrier is shaking...", Adhara said with a mocking smile.
Azzen frowned finding what she said confusing, but he then looks up and saw the invisible barrier that the Vampire King and Undead King were sustaining is already blinking rapidly. It even got thinner and thinner.
Looking to the back, Azzen saw the destructive fight between Rex and the others.
Each clash that they did creates a powerful energy ripple that hits the invisible barrier, and this makes Azzen looks back at Adhara while gritting his teeth angrily, 'I can't put more pressure on the Yathoth Barrier, If I forcefully try to break the rune and restrain them then the barrier might just shatter. The fight to kill the Prince is already destructive enough and pressured the barrier strongly, If I use more of my power then the barrier would definitely shatter and the energy would leak out...'
'What the hell is this situation... I can't do anything!', Azzen grinds his teeth angrily.
A clash between three ninth-rank realm entities is already hard enough to be sustained by the barrier, and if he also uses his demonic energy carelessly then the energy would leak out. If that happens then everything they are doing here would be for nothing.
Remembering the mocking smile Adhara said while she warn him about it, Azzen can't take it.
Although the urge to rip Adhara to shreds right now is already mounting very high, he knows that it would be a wrong move. But if he didn't do anything then the Supernatural army would be decimated by the two of them as they have a strict order to now kill Adhara and Gistella until Rex died.
It was a pinch situation, Azzen was left with two options that are both bad.
"L-Lord Azzen! They are possessed! If this keeps up, many of our people would be killed and the casualties would be devastating!", an Alpha Werewolf said seeing that Adhara and Gistella are fighting like a lunatic.
Both don't care and focus on attacking completely.
Since they both now know that these Supernaturals are under strict order to not kill them until Rex died, they have nothing to fear. Because of that, the number of Supernaturals they killed is increasing rapidly.
Glancing at the Alpha, Azzen then replied, "We can't kill them yet, wait a little longer!"
"It's easy for you to say! Demons can be revived but Werewolves cannot, my pack is not expandable! If this goes on, I don't care anymore. I will kill both of them!", the Alpha retorted angrily, showing his displeasure with the situation they were in right now.
Azzen was put in a spot again as he doesn't know what to do.
Everything was Adhara's fault since she's the one that manage to see through their deceit, and now the situation escalated into this with him unable to do anything. But the time is ticking while he just stands there confused about what to do.
While he was pondering like that, Adhara and Gistella are in an onslaught.
p1ease visi(t) n0ve1b(in).ne)t
Blood already stained the white furs at the top half of Adhara's body, the blood of the Werewolves she killed kept on splattering onto her. With her glowing white claws, she did every way of killing someone that she could think of.
Slicing them in half, crushing their necks, crushing their skulls, and even tearing them in half.
Anything that comes to mind she tries as the Werewolves started to feel fear, they are in a pickle as they can't kill Adhara and can only injure her. Even though they tried, it's hard to severely injure her with the thought of not killing her in their heads.
On the other side, Gistella also did the same thing.
Knowing exactly that the Incubus' weakness was in their horns that are protruding out of their heads, she aimed at them. Grabbing and pulling them off, crushing their heads with a slash, and even stomping on them with her superior strength.
It was an absolute massacre, they are breezing through the army of Supernatural.
Realizing that he can't keep still like this, Azzen converted the three-headed Demon Dog back to its spear form before he slammed the spear onto the ground. With a powerful leap, he instantly heads over to the fight between Rex, King Baralt, and Queen Catsha.
Upon seeing this, Adhara widened her eyes in shock, 'Oh, no! He's aiming after Rex!'
"Come back here coward! Fight me! I'm right here!", Adhara shouted trying to pull Azzen's attention back to her, but Azzen ignored her as his mind was fixated on killing Rex first no matter what. After Rex died then the others would be finished easily.
Aside from that, he also wanted to torture Adhara for shaming him like that earlier.
Just as he was about to head over to the fight, Azzen suddenly sensed something coming from the side faster than his own reaction speed. When his head hasn't fully turned yet, he was hit by something and he got sent crashing to the ground.
Boom!
Like a meteor, Azzen got planted into the ground from that hit.
Standing up slowly he then touches his cheek and finds that the black charcoal armor covering his face was cracked because of that punch, but then an unfamiliar voice creeps into his ears as he raises his gaze to look at the person who did this to him.
"Blue Demon? I expected King Saruth to be here, but no matter, you're strong enough to fight with"
