Chapter 800 Trashes
[Zigurat - Decimate Ash]. All the giant salamander's tongue disappears along with the chilling mist. This makes Patimura more confused about his current situation. It is also his first time to experience such a sophisticated illusion ability from Gram monster.
During this moment, Patimura also realized he couldn't sense the previous giant ice bird. In fact, he feels like he is entering a whole new world surrounded by thick, chilling mist.
"One Cupid is up and down~ Up and down~ Up and down~" The same strange song sung by a childish voice heard from the surrounding mist again.
Along with the song, dozens of giant salamanders appeared inside the thick mist. Patimura feels they are close but also far away. It is real but also not real at the same time.
He even feels his sense is sharply numbed, not just from the chilling aura in the surroundings but also by another mysterious force. Patimura knows there are some variants of Gram capable of using curse or chilly wind to weaken even a seventh-grade grade like him.
However, none of them were capable of success when he already used [Mandraguna] skill. [Mandraguna] skill is an inherited skill possessed by the Dipo family. It has a very strict requirement to activate it.
At most, only five people are recorded capable of using this skill in the entire Dipo family history. Still, this skill is very godly and could make someone invincible in the literal sense.
When Patimura uses [Mandraguna], he will be impervious to any attack like Angus' previous attack or the Giant Salamanders' tongue onslaught. In some way, it is a broken defensive skill though it still has some weakness and couldn't be used continuously.
In the meantime, Angus also notices the battle between the Grams and the Guardian. Sensing the weirdness of Patimura and the sudden appearance of Giant Salamander, Angus immediately glanced at Anna from the side.
"Anna." called Angus.
"Ehh… Yeah?" asked Anna while trying to not look at Angus.
Her action looks like a kid getting caught doing something bad.
"What are you doing?" asked Angus.
"Huh?? Anna didn't do anything. Silly Daddy. Anna is just standing here." lied Anna obliviously.
"Hmm… Then, why is there another Anna over there?" asked Angus while pointing at the battlefield in the distance.
"Ehh… Anna v2 is not Anna. Wait… Anna is Anna v2. Then, Anna v2 should be Anna v1 and Anna is Anna v2. That's right, smart Anna." blabbering Anna in very confusing Anna words.
"Urgh… Forget about it. Just don't bother those Guardians again. Whether they die or not is not our matter anymore." said Angus.
"Why?" asked Anna with innocent eyes.
"Huh?? Well, if he died there would be too many problems for its consequence." explained Angus.
"Don't want to. Anna hates those stupid meanies goaty flashy flashy armor." said Anna adamantly.
"Hmm…. Why did you hate them, Anna?" asked Angus.
This is the first time Anna urges after Angus tells her to not do it. Usually,? she just either does it again as if not listening to his words or obeys it directly. It is rare for her to adamantly argue with Angus.
"Those trash are filthy. They don't deserve to live. They are not even bubbles but filthy leeches' trash. Maggot!! Lower than poopy and grass!! Anna hates them!! Pretty Big sis hates them!! Everyone hates them!!" said Anna while releasing a tremendous dreadful aura.
At the same time, a pitch black darkness tendrils swirling around Anna. Despite such a menacing phenomenon, Angus and Jayna still didn't change their loving and caring expression. At most, they only release deep sighs.
Since Angus and Jayna also connected with Anna, they know what triggered her and why she had such a strong reaction. In short, Anna somehow could feel the hatred from the previous Phoenix's soul trapped in this land.
Jayna and Angus could understand Anna's fury. In fact, they also know Anna didn't need their permission to toy with the Guardians. With the power of darkness and 'Blackie', Anna is practically the invincible Queen during the night.
Not to mention Patimura, she could even do something to Nabe covertly without anyone noticing inside the Nirvas dungeon. Yet, she still reveals it to them. It means Anna is somehow conflicted and still indecisive.
"So, you want to kill them and that Patimura?" asked Angus.
"No!! Anna wants thrashes to suffer!! Trash should not die but suffer forever!!" said Anna manically.
"I see… Did you want to do it alone or want my help?" asked Angus.
"Did Daddy want to help Anna?" asked Anna back.
"Well, if you really want my help, I will support you." said Angus.
Hearing this, all the black tendrils retract back to Anna's shadow and return the surrounding peace inside the tent. At the same time, Anna is blinking a few times rapidly. The young couple knows Anna is thinking hard and contemplating at this moment.
"No… Anna will never involve Daddy and Mommy. Anna loves Daddy and Mommy too much." said Anna before hugging Angus and Jayna.
"So, what are you going to do?" asked Jayna.
"What is Anna going to do?" asked Anna back.
"I mean… What will you do to those Guardians?" asked Jayna again.
"Ahh… Why should the smart pretty pretty Anna care about thrashes? Anna is busy loving Daddy and Mommy." said Anna before snuggling more to Anna.
Hearing this, Angus and Jayna could only warmly smile while shaking their heads at her antics. Still, they understand Anna's intention. Despite not caring about those guardians, Anna never returns to the other Anna on the battlefield.
Without anyone noticing, Anna somehow creates another self through the night of darkness and puts her on the Guardian's battlefield.
Her other self may not truly reveal itself or fight frontally. But, she somehow could manipulate the battlefield trajectory and the newborn Gram. Be it lower or high-grade Gram, all of them move according to Anna's intention while she is hiding in the shadows.
It is not wrong to say the whole Guardian is already inside Anna's hand. Just by one fifth-grade ice bird Gram and the copies of Cupid, she could manage to contain Patimura and separate them from the other guardians.
Who knows what another terrifying power using the darkness that Anna will do to these people. Angus and Jayna think these people didn't deserve to be toyed to death like this.
However, they also know the hatred of those trapped phoenixes and what the Guardian did to them in the past.
There may be many things already in the past, but as trapped Phoenix said, no matter how many times passed or how the Guardian tried to cover it, what they did will always be known to Phoenix. It is like a curse that comes from the Phoenix itself.
'I wonder if a dragon like Alder will go on a rampage when visiting this place.' thought Angus inwardly.
In the end, the young couple didn't stop Anna or lecturing her anymore. They even decide to lie on the bed together to rest. Although they are not physically exhausted, what Jayna did still affects their mood and psyche. They still couldn't escape the distress and sadness in their heart.
'Though, Anna seems to be more angry rather than sad.' thought Angus inwardly while hugging the two beloved families.
Meanwhile, Patimura gets annoyed by the strange child song and the big salamander's tongue onslaught. He will face a strong storm gust from the hidden icebird out of nowhere whenever he tries to break through this thick mist.
Patimura could only passively defend himself against this sneaky attack. Furthermore, he also felt his body sense is slowly weakened despite already using [Mandraguna]. His body feels like it's getting colder and rigid.
The fire elementals he could produce are also getting smaller, as if swallowed by something. Patimura knows having this close to Everwhite Basin may reduce his fire elemental skill.
However, it could be negated by his superb fire mastery. He could still use his fire without any problem in this environment. He also feels the fire he produces is also significantly weaker over time.
'If this keeps going, I may be unable to create a single spark of fire. What the hell is happening?!! Damn!! I couldn't stay here for too long. There are still another two Gram facing the Guardians.' cursed Patimura inwardly.
Leaving with no choice, Patimura decides to break through the thick mist again.
"Zigurat - Smelt Burst!!" said Patimura while vertically swinging down his double axe.
*WHOOOSHH* *BOOOOM* A path opened through the thick mist. Without hesitation, Patimura entered the path as fast as he could. At this moment, a strong chilling gust of wind came before him.
Already expecting the chilling gust attack, Patimura decides to bear it using his body while employing [Mandraguna One]. *CRANG* *BANG* Suddenly, a strong sharp ice claw launched from the frozen ground and hit Patimura back.
The invincible shining Patimura is suddenly thrown back like a ragdoll. A potent miasma also slowly seeps through his wound, corroding his body and weakening him further.
"*Cough* *Cough* Urgh… Huft... Huft… Damn, I got careless." muttered Patimura with a grim expression.
