Chapter 855 Angry Nyx!
-----
The people of Sapphire Temple glanced into the skies; their hearts filled with horror as they saw the Paladins that had emerged slowly beginning to transform… It wasn't just the Captain Maria was humiliating, but the other seven of them had already been pushed to turn into the "blessings" of the water goddess.
Maria knew that this was a good opportunity for the kids to gains some battle experience, so while Lucifer, Partner, Emeraldine, Tear, and Jonathan supervised things, Fabian, his friends, Silva, Nyx, and Catarina were mostly taking care of them.
Fabian and his friends had leveled up a bit by hunting wild monsters in the deserts outside, and managed to reach a sizable level of power, with their combined efforts, they took down three of the Paladins.
Meanwhile, Nyx fought two by herself, all while Catarina and Silva fought another two. The battles were slightly even, but that was mostly because they wanted to use these Paladins as punching bags, they were perfect for that, thanks to their amazing physical strength and defenses.
However, they weren't that hardy, after a few claw attacks from Nyx, the two Paladins she was fighting collapsed, her abyssal death flames, her phantom dragons, and her mighty draconian strength mixed with her phantasmal, sneaky abilities made her too mighty, and that's without her actually turning into a giant dragon!
"Uuurggh…! Y-You damn brat!"
"Argh…! M-My bones…!"
"Hmph, you shouldn't had picked a fight with us if you were going to regret losing!" Nyx said angrily, crossing her arms. "I will never forgive those that harm my friends, and Celes became my fren now!"
Nyx had played around with Celes for a couple of hours, learning a bit about the young blue-eyed boy. Who was always rather lonely but had an unexpectedly nice and playful personality.
It only took a few hours for her childish and innocent heart to think of him as a friend, and so, a friend he became!
She felt slightly angry when her mama told her to remain quiet within her shadows to hide from the abusive paladins, but Maria couldn't contain herself anymore and stepped out, deciding to go against Nia's will to not intervene nor bring bloodshed to her house.
Now the house of her new dear friend was destroyed, and Nyx felt incredibly guilty about it, so she let go a bit of steam by beating these Paladins to death!
"The Blessing… the blessing of the goddess of water!"
"Please, give us the strength we need!!"
FLAAASH!
Their chests glowed with a bright blue aura, as shockwave of energy emerged from within them and forced Nyx to step back.
"Huh? What's going on?!"
Nyx was shocked, opening her mouth wide open as she saw the two Paladins transform, fusing together as one! Their bodies turned into fleshy tendrils, their souls were darkened by black, miasmic waters, as their forms converged into a single, monstrous entity.
"RAAAAHHH!!!"
[The power of their [Corrupted Oasis Spirit's Heart Fragment] has forcefully transformed both [Water Goddess Paladins (A Rank)] together into a [Two-Headed Aquatic Miasmic Aberration (S- Rank)]!]
[All their Stats have merged together and have further increased by +100%!]
S- Rank monster!
It was of a much higher level of power than any other transformations Nyx had faced before. She felt slightly nervous, but at the same time, she had helped her mom defeat an S+++ Rank monster… So it wasn't as if she was completely afraid and without any confidence either.
The monstrous beast had the slight shape of some sort of lizardman monster. The armor and weapons the paladins wielded melted and turned into blue and silver scales covering its humanoid-like body, with four enormous arms with sharp claws and two sea snake-like heads, and a huge blue and black crystal growing on its chest, protected by its scales.
It emanated a deadly aura of pressure, miasma, and spiritual energy! This was a completely unique transformation, not like something they had ever faced before.
And that message that showed in front of Nyx appeared in front of everyone else as well, the [Corrupted Oasis Spirit Heart Fragment] was already setting a lot of flags.
Just what had they done with the true Oasis Spirit? Was it truly dead? Did it truly reincarnate?
Those will be answers Maria and her family will have to search for once they're done cleaning the floor with these slightly overpowered mobs…
"RAAAAHH! T-The blessings! It feels so good… SO GOOD! GRAAAH!"
The furious two-headed lizard-like sea snake monster roared, his four arms moving upwards as he summoned four spears made of spiraling black and blue spiritual waters, glaring at Nyx with his four eyes, two in each head…
"We'll kill you; you damn brat! You'll die by the power of our goddess's blessings!!!"
"Hmph! I'm not a brat! I will stomp on the bullies of my friends!"
Nyx and the fused chimeric paladin roared at the same time, rushing against one another at an incredible speed and clashing! Although her foe was over ten times her tiny size, Nyx was mighty and fearless, capable of blocking his four attacks at once with her bare claws, as an armor of black crystal-like scales grew over her body, the power of her [Obsidian Demonite Crystal Scale Armor] Skill!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
Their clash was intense, several shockwaves were being unleashed across the skies as the people below panicked, screaming, and running away from the battle.
"GRRHH, those scales…! Are you a lizard or something, you damn brat?!" The two headed monster roared, swinging his long tail, which ended on the head of yet another sea snake as it opened its jaws and engulfed Nyx completely!
CRUUUNCH!
"Hahah! But you lowered your guard, FOOL!"
The chimeric fusion celebrated, thinking they had chomped down Nyx easily!
However…
"ROOAR!"
Nyx unleashed a mighty draconic roar, her eyes glowing bright red as her tail grew much longer than originally, resembling the tail she had in her true dragon form.
Her Tail suddenly loaded itself with her powers, as it pierced the head of the sea snake trying to eat her a hundred times!
"[Void Piercing Spear Tail]!"
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
BOOOMMM…!
The gigantic sea snake head could not resist her might, exploding into smithereens!
"Grrrr… Now I'm mad!"
Nyx was genuinely angered now!
