The first creature, in summary, looked like the amalgamation of a dried, diseased cat and a house fly.
This was in both structure and not just looks.
It screeched lightly as it limped one step at a time with legs that were both paws and insect legs.
It had six abnormal compound eyes.
The moment it saw Lenny with the item of its desire, it screeched eeriely at him.
Father Black could not believe what he was seeing. Nevertheless, he could not peel his eyes away from it.
This was true for either the father or the daughter.
At the moment of the first creature's appearance, Father Black had stated clearly what these were.
These creatures were of the Nether.
"They are here for their body parts. The contracts made with the witches have been nullified." Father Black whispered.
Nicky hugged her legs together in deep fear that welled up from the depths of her heart.
She was a Ghoul, and in this place, they were practically immortal, but she could feel it as clear as the sun in the sky.
If that beast were to look their way, their death would be as resolved as the plain decision between black and white.
There would be no second to it. Not even the original Ciri would be able to bring them back.
These creatures were different from either demons or devils. They were, in a sense, very special.
The kind of magic they used was not just theirs. It was said that it flowed in their bodies like blood does in humans.
Many things were not known about these creatures, except that only the human race and those of very special Demon Royals could summon them. It was practically a rare and unkind gift.
Hence, Witches and the value they presented
Instantly, a long whip like a tongue shot out of what Lenny thought was a limb but ended up resembling a mouth opening.
It immediately wrapped around his arm, or, to be precise, it wrapped around the Flea Skin, and then it aggressively pulled it.
Instinctively, Lenny's fingers tightened.
This action created fierce tension on the flea's skin.
Lenny instantly fired a shot of fireball at the creature.
*Boom!*
However, to his surprise, the shot was far less impressive.
In fact, it looked as if it barely tickled the hair on its skin.
Lenny fired another fireball again, but it was the same thing.
"Fuck!"
The fireball is currently his strongest attack.
This was the same attack he had used on a witch only moments ago, turning her into charred meat, and right now, it was like a candle flame to the nether creature's body.
The second beast that had appeared also reached for its own piece, which was the bronze amulet.
The second creature was a skeleton with six heads and eyeballs on every part of its bronze-colored body except in its eye sockets.
It stretched its hand, and the amulet seemed to have a life of its own as it was pulled towards it.
However, Lenny immediately grabbed it in the air before it could reach him.
Lenny pulled fiercely at both items, and in this manner, he was pulling against the power of two Nether beasts.
This was a battle that he was definitely not going to win.
However, he persevered as much as he could.
These were items that obviously had a lot of value.
He could not just let them go.
Then again, the strain of the pull was starting to act on his muscles, and the thought of letting go of these items nursed in his mind.
However, Father Black suddenly came out of his hiding spot.
"Don't let go; they cannot stay in this world unsummoned for more than a minute."
Those words immediately registered in his head.
However, the Cat-insect abominable mixture seemed to sense his new-found determination, and then it pulled a little harder.
The tension on the flea skin instantly made it tear, and that tear led to a full parting as the beast pulled a bigger half of the skin away.
As it did, Lenny was immediately pulled toward the other creature.
He could see it.
If he did not let go, he would instantly be sucked into the portal.
In this moment of survival, his mind arrived at a split conclusion that would maximize his probability of survival.
Instantly, Lenny opted for the Evolution of his magic points.
<Magic points Evolved>
<Magic points: 1000/1000 (Basic 2)
Immediately, he stretched his hand, and once more, he released a fireball.
*Boom!*
The blast was so effective that it propelled him backwards, shooting the nether beast back into the Nether world.
Even after Lenny was sent backwards by the force, he could still hear the resounding explosion from within the portal as it closed.
<Alert>
<Congratulations, Two Nether items acquired. One Broken, One Whole. A new slot for Nether equipment has been created in the storage unit>
<Host has offended Two Nether Beasts. They will not stop until Host ceases to exist>
Both portals had instantly disappeared, and Lenny had succeeded in keeping the items.
He fell to the ground as the stream of alerts appeared before his eyes.
He had truly managed to keep his loot, but the system had been clear about its warnings.
Lenny slowly stood to his feet. The wounds he had gotten from killing Loren had not yet disappeared.
He stretched a bit as he patted the bone spikes from his body to the ground, allowing the wounds to slowly heal.
Father Black, Scarface, and Nicky steadily and slowly walked forward.
Their steps were cautioned.
"Are you okay?" Father Black asked.
Lenny nodded. "Thanks for the tip."
Father Black nodded back, "Oh, don't worry, it's okay! I see you got them."
"Yes, but one is damaged, and I think I just made new enemies."
Scarface also came out of his hiding spot.
He really wondered how they had survived all that. It was a miracle, as far as he was concerned.
However, at this moment, all three men noticed something wrong...
