As if her injuries were not enough, Ruby had also narrowly escaped losing an arm. Elizabeth's daggers had come dangerously close to severing it, but she managed to evade the attack just in time.
The severity of Ruby's injuries was evident in the way she supported her body lazily, with her arms hanging down and legs looking weak. Despite the odds stacked against her, she still stood there with a defiant expression on her face, determined to continue fighting.
Despite the numerous wounds and injuries Ruby had sustained in the battle with Elizabeth, she remained resolute and unbroken.
Her body was covered in a myriad of cuts and gashes, each one a testament to the ferocity of the battle that had ensued. However, despite the severity of her injuries, Ruby remained defiant and determined.
In fact, Ruby had been through far worse in the past. She once had her arm completely severed from her shoulder, yet even this did not break her spirit.
Through sheer willpower and determination, she was able to have the arm reattached in time to continue using it normally. This experience had taught her the value of perseverance and the importance of never giving up, even in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds.
Despite the pain and agony she was undoubtedly feeling, Ruby refused to give up or back down. She knew that she had to keep fighting, no matter what the cost, if she was to emerge victorious from this battle with Elizabeth.
Ruby's expression and demeanor suggested that she was carefree and happy, despite her severe injuries. Her eyes were shut, and she was humming a happy tune while puffing out her cheeks in a playful manner. However, she still had a curious and cheerful smile on her face.
With a cheerful laugh and a carefree bounce, Ruby responded to Elizabeth's remark, "That's so kind of you to say! Oh, there's so much more to come...I'm having far too much fun to worry about failing. I'm sure they'll work even harder now that they've seen what I'm capable of!" Her tone conveyed a sense of playful enthusiasm and mischievous delight, as if the prospect of more challenges thrilled her to no end.
"You weren't making any efforts before, were you? It's hard for me to imagine that you would stand by and let yourself be hurt to such a degree without making any attempt to save your life... How are you even able to stand up with all the wounds you have?" Elizabeth wore a frown on her face as she spoke to Ruby, her tone laced with incredulity.
She found it hard to believe that Ruby had not made any attempt to save herself from getting so severely hurt in the fight. Elizabeth was puzzled as to how Ruby could still stand up with so many wounds all over her body. She expressed her dissatisfaction with the situation by fluttering her black feathers.
"Hmmmm? What's the matter? I'm giving you a handicap!" Ruby, on the other hand, seemed unperturbed by Elizabeth's words and continued to maintain her joyful and carefree demeanor. She seemed to be mocking Elizabeth by replying in a singsong voice and stretching out her words.
"Handicap?" When Elizabeth asked her what she meant by "handicap," Ruby seemed to ignore the question altogether and continued to act as though she was doing Elizabeth a favor by allowing herself to be hurt so badly.
Elizabeth's frown deepened as she struggled to understand Ruby's perspective, feeling frustrated and exasperated by the other girl's nonchalance in the face of such serious injuries.
Ruby replied with a smile, "Yes, I enjoy feeling the pain and suffering. It's a fetish that Lust enjoys as well." She seemed to revel in the agony, even though she was covered in wounds from the fight.
She had intentionally refrained from protecting herself, as it allowed her to experience the pain to the fullest extent possible.
Elizabeth, on the other hand, was unable to comprehend this mentality. She looked at Ruby with a perplexed expression, unable to understand why someone would willingly subject themselves to such agony.
"So you have no interest in protecting yourself from my attacks, all for the sake of your strange masochistic fetish?" she asked with a frown. Elizabeth was concerned about the well-being of her fellow demon, and her confusion and worry showed on her face.
If Ruby's statement is true, then it suggests that she is not just skilled but is also allowing Elizabeth to inflict wounds on her. However, this assumption may not be entirely accurate if Ruby is pretending to be injured.
Elizabeth glanced towards Ruby and noticed that despite her injuries, she appeared to be in a state of calm and was not displaying any signs of exhaustion, discomfort, or fear.
She instead had a disturbingly wide grin on her face. Elizabeth also observed that Ruby wiped the blood from her lips with a lick, relishing the taste before pressing her metal gauntlets onto her cheek.
This made Elizabeth wonder whether Ruby's injuries were genuine or whether she was simply putting on a show.
It was clear that Ruby was not making any efforts to protect herself, and the fact that she seemed to be enjoying the pain only added to Elizabeth's confusion.
She couldn't help but think that Ruby's actions were driven by her masochistic tendencies rather than any desire to win the fight.
