Scarface and Nicky did not understand what the old man was saying.
However, the sound of a pointy blade sliding into meat and through bone was audible for all of them to hear, pulling their attention.
Lenny's head fell low as he coughed up a mouthful of blood.
Meanwhile, Loren gave a menacing smile.
She had won.
Or so she thought.
Lenny suddenly grabbed the claw as he lifted his head to hers.
"You are an inch too far!"
With surprising strength, he pulled her closer, stabbing the claw deeper into his own chest.
As he did, Lenny heard a low SCREEHING SCREAM in his head.
It was from Baddieness the Leech.
At the same time, he raised his other hand and activated two consecutive fireballs.
From this range, there was no way Loren was going to dodge.
Besides, she had become so cocky that she did not even activate her negative Magic.
At this range of explosions, Lenny was aware that the impact of the blast was going to take him too.
However, it was perfect.
This was exactly what he wanted. That way, the heat could also roast the leech.
*Boom! Boom!!*
Two conservative blasts enveloped both of them.
The heat from the blast was so intense that the three onlookers hid from the explosion behind the car in the distance.
White flames engulfed everything all around.
There was even a flame on the ceiling.
The road was red hot, evidence that even the cota had not been spared from the burning heat of the blast.
The entire place was made bright by the white flames.
After a few seconds, Nicky, in her curiosity, could no longer hold back; she had to see. She had to see for herself if any of them survived such an explosion that even left stones falling from the ceiling of the tunnel.
Slowly, she lifted her head to peep, and there, in the distance, she could see them clearly.
Lenny's clothes had all been burned off.
There were a few cuts and stabs from bone particles in his skin. He looked like he had pissed off a porcupine and got what he deserved.
These bone particles were from the person standing before him.
Loren still stood before him; however, only a small fraction of her
Most of her upper body had been blasted to smithereens.
Her charred meat chunks and organs had been splashed in all directions, becoming part of the debris from the blast.
The only thing left of her was firstly her left leg, as it had been behind the right when she gave that final attack that Lenny took principal advantage of.
Most of her waist had unfortunately joined the blasted organs.
Surprisingly, only about ? of her belly had been caught in the explosion.
At the moment, it vomited the remaining organs.
Half of her upper chest and head had also been unfortunately blasted off, revealing charred insides that managed to leak slightly with thick blood on the verge of drying off.
<Alert>
<A massive amount of negative Magic has been released in the host; absorption is in progress.
<Absorption of Negative magic from two witches
<Magic +4000 magic>
<Magic points: 6120/5120>
<Acquired Magic points exceed carrying capacity.
<Does the host wish to use Magic points to increase other stats or Evolve Magic to Basic 2?
A long string of information aligned itself before Lenny's eyes.
Apparently, he had absorbed such a significant amount of negative Magic from the deaths of both witches that he could now evolve.
However, before Lenny could make a decision on what to do, he got another alert.
<Alert!>
<Items acquired: Skin of the Nether Flea (which can transform into any Beast fed with its blood)
Amulet (Predatory Nature of a Nether Hunter)
He smiled at this. Lenny remembered that he had read the ability descriptions of the two witches. These items must have come from them.
He willed, and both items appeared on his arms.
The skin of a Nether flea was like a cloak, but its body was rough like that of a foot mat. It was black and very light.
While the amulet looked to be a kind of bronze material. It had certain symbols about it.
Yet again, it happened.
<Alert! Alert!! Alert!!!>
<In coming! Two gates to the nether The contracts have been broken, and the Nether beings are coming for their body parts>
Lenny had not even wrapped his head around what was happening before it did.
From seemingly nowhere, a portal suddenly appeared.
It was not the usual pinkish purple portal Lenny was used to seeing, as it was used to get to the Devil Dungeon.
No!
This one was as dark as a night without stars or the moon.
The moment it appeared, dark smoke floated out of it.
As it did, Lenny could feel the outright corruption of the world.
The atmosphere seemed to change as it suddenly dropped in temperature.
The walls cracked instantly. Evidence that whatever was about to come was not supposed to be here.
A pungent smell like a pudding mixture of fermented shit and harsh wine rushed into the air.
Lenny had fought with devils and demons, but this was the first time he was seeing this.
The three hiding behind the vehicle could not believe what they were seeing.
Father Black's cigarette fell out of his mouth.
However, before it even touched the ground, it had gone completely frozen.
Breaking like a lollipop as it touched the ground.
The car had managed to make it regardless of the explosion that Lenny caused.
Maybe it was because they were at a significant distance from the main action.
However, the moment the portal appeared, the windows of the car instantly shattered on their own as a result of the cold.
And then it came out.
The arrival of this beast was not quick, but it was not fast either.
It proceeded one step at a time.
The moment it did, Father Black's jaw shook as he muttered lowly, "Oh fucking Ciri....it's... It's a Nether Creature."
However, before his eyes could even finish taking in the first creature, a second portal appeared.
And another creature stepped out.
Both creatures were in obvious competition to see who was uglier.
At least, It was so in Lenny's eyes.
