Chapter 398: Pekora's Leadership
-----
The Ice Giants were left shocked! Shock! Utter shock! What their eyes were seeing was right out of their minds… they knew that magic could do many things, they knew that they could summon the power of the elements for their aid, but they never thought that something so complicated and amazing could be constructed using magic and spirits…
A vast field of nature filled with deadly plants capable of fighting, and each plant was actually a Nature or Life Attribute Spirit! This was the amazing power of Pekora and her tribe of Rabbit-kin! Or well, one part of their power! There were more, after all.
Despite how low Beast-kin are looked upon by the other races, they have to admit that when it comes to being connected to nature… they're the ones that have the highest affinity! Perhaps even bigger than elves with nature, beast-kin are a mystical race of many shapes, forms, and sizes, but they all share this connection with nature, a strong connection that makes them capable of communicating with spirits and easily make them their friends, contracting them,
This is how Pekora has two Spirits as her friends, while most of the other rabbit-kin with her that is from her tribe at least have their own spirits too, which is quite surprising. The elders of this Winter Lotus Sect always thought that their Sect Master was amazing for having a bunch of spirits and that spirits were incredibly rare occurrences, even more as they had the power of an ancient dragon!
But now that they were seeing this spectacle, they had begun to doubt their own judgment and their own beliefs in anything they had ever thought possible… there were dozens, literally dozens, perhaps almost 30 Spirits gathering here! Mystical creatures are only believed to be legendary… they all were gathering here like absolutely nothing as if they were the most normal thing…
"This is impossible…"
"So many spirits!"
"W-Wow… This can't be!"
"If they have so many spirits… it means spirits are not so unique as we believed?"
"Shut up! They are! None of us has ever had the affinity for one… yet they have at least one each…!"
"How come these nasty beasts are closer to spirits than us?!"
The ice giants' elders who were fending off the shadow beasts' remnants that walked near the entrance were all confused, and some even raged in frustration. Many of them had dreamed of having a spirit in their lies, and Pekora and her allies were now showing they had many.
The beast-kin seemed to no longer be some shitty race in their eyes, as they had grown to admire them, and to envy them…
Maybe beast-kin wouldn't have such a bad reputation with the public if it wasn't because the only beast-kin venerable, the dream fox demon venerable was a rather ruthless woman who had killed millions of people when she became a venerable… in her era, she had used the power of dreams to generate massive dream worlds everywhere, which she used to drain the souls of the unfortunate… those that dared to come closer to would fall asleep and forced to complete a certain task, if they failed, their souls would be slurped away from their bodies!
Due to her reputation, the overall reputation of all beast-kin also dropped over thousands of years, they didn't care anymore, and they were even enslaved and more… the beast-kin had suffered a lot!
However, this rabbit-kin were having a time of their lives as they continued to fight for their people and their lives, unleashing the power of their spirits.
Pekora's powerful sunflower released blasts of sunlight, the strong peashooter fired blazing and explosive peas, while the other plant-like spirits did all sorts of other tasks. They were all combining in effort alone, unleashing a great deal of power from their spirits, as they all unleashed combined power and attacks!
The shadow beasts began to explode into pieces, as their darkness dissipate easily! Pekora looked at the scene with a pridefully smile, as the other beast-kin were fighting bravely! The scene was rather glorious, filling everyone's heart with resolve.
"Spirit Blessing!"
FLASH!
Pekora was an amazing magician of spirit magic, she immediately unleashed a powerful spell that enhanced the power of the spirits by a double and made them even stronger! Their attacks reached even further into the battle, and their defenses were enhanced.
The power of the explosive spirits was amazing, but this wasn't everything, many shadow beasts continued to emerge at a fast speed, one after another, they continued the attack and fought back, some of them managed to damage the spirits and plants, pushing forward and making an effort for the others to continue fighting with everything they had…
Pekora however had other plans, as she moved forward!
"I guess we gotta make a stronger and more different approach… Plants!"
FLASH!
The Nature Domain suddenly summoned massive roots of trees, shaped like spears, they began to impale the nearby shadow beasts one by one, piercing their bodies and blasting them into pieces!
Pekora only thought about one thing though, about victory! Since she was rescued by Drake that she had wanted to bring him victories and to be grateful for what he had done for her and her tribe! After all, he had done a great lot without realizing it, saving them all from slavery, healing them, giving them shelter, food, and ways to grow stronger was already a massive help on his part…
She had to do everything she could to bring him victories! And the plants that she summoned with a lot of effort and mana were doing that for her, but spear-shaped wood was already getting old, the shadow beasts were evading them! Then… what about vines?
Pekora didn't have a little variety of attacks, as she summoned a massive mass of thorny vines, wrapping around the shadow beasts and attacking them when they tried to evade the attacks of the other plants…!
However, this wasn't enough either, more shadow beasts targeted the beast-kin as this progressed, and a certain big one had surged too…
"GROAR!"
Pekora would have to go even further beyond this time around.
