239 Ninhursag VS The Blue Demon —–
Ninhursag glanced at Alberno approaching him quickly. His enormous blade slashed through the empty air, generating a wave of black flames that clashed against her. However, Ninhursag was protected by a natural magical barrier she had covered herself on, although the flames were powerful and began to quickly corrode her barrier, she unleashed a shockwave of energies towards Alberno by gathering it into her chest and letting it out, making these flames fade away and hitting Aberno strongly, throwing him across the air.
BOOOM!
“Uuggh...!”
Aberno was sent flying, crushing several trees on his way to the ground, where he felt headfirst, vomiting a mouthful of blood as he quickly attempted to stand up using his blade. He gritted his teeth, cursing the heavens for making him fight such a beast. Despite his strength, he had yet to completely develop and he was mostly relying on weakening his foes with his gigantic army for him to take them out when they were too weakened to even defend properly, but now that he was being forced into a 1v1 fight against someone at full strength and energy reserves, he quickly realized how weak he was.
“ROOOAAARR!”
Ninhursag roared monstrously, leaping over Aberno and unleashing a triple attack using the three heads she had, the power of fire, winds, and darkness converged together as dark flames began to spiral like a storming vortex, falling over the Blue Demon!
BOOOOOMMM...!
Aberno used the powers dwelling within him as he unleashed them into his cursed armor and weapon, enhancing his defenses to his limits as he blocked the enormous vortex attack with the blade! He was gritting his teeth intensively as his foot sank into the dirt, his intent was put into resisting this powerful blow!
.....
“Uuuuuuoooogggh...!”
“GRYYSHA!”
However, a sudden unexpected attack emerged at his left side, as Ninhursag’s tail, whose tip was that of the head of deadly snake attacked Aberno, giving him a strong headbutt and throwing him strongly into the ground!
CLASH!
His entire body started to roll around the ground, as his blade was lost midway through, his bones cracked, and he began to suffer several internal injuries. Another mouthful of blood came out of his jaws, as he looked at Ninhursag with bloodshot eyes. Despair quickly began to emerge within his emotionless heart, as he realized that he indeed still had emotions, but that they ended resurfacing in such a manner only made him more scared...
“M-My weapon!” He cried, trying to grab the blade, but Ninhursag was faster, she jumped over the sword and using her enormous weight, she crushed it into pieces!
CRAAASH!
“N-No...!”
Aberno looked with despair clear on his face as his powerful sword was handled like a low-quality toy and crushed into pieces, losing all of its malicious powers and quickly taking away one of the hopes he had for surviving.
The Blue Demon looked at Ninhursag defiantly, as he continued to attack Ninhursag with his magic, but he wasn’t really that talented of a mage, although he was already a Tier 5 Magic Circle Magician, he was still not comparable to Faylen and her powerful buffs, even less with Ninhursag, who was almost a Tier 8 Magician and her magical manipulation and mana pool were simply incredible!
However, Aberno still had his Demon Core and the accessories and armor given to him by the mysterious magician, which booted his magical power to almost an extra tier in power alone, making even his unexperienced magic quite powerful! But that wasn’t enough, Ninhursag ability to manipulate her own mana and the buffs from Faylen easily overpowered his own magical powers, even the help of the accessories and armor were only buying him but time before the inevitable...
“ROAR!”
Ninhursag continued moving forward and chasing Aberno, as he was running around in circles while firing all sorts of flashy explosions of dark and blood magic, he had attempted several times to control her blood as well, but that seemed impossible as her body was way too strong for him to be able to control its interior. Ninhursag jumped towards Aberno as she caught him at long last, unleashing several slashing attacks with her lion claws!
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
“Uuuaaaggh...!”
Aberno was showered in attacks, as his entire body suddenly had several deep wounds reaching deeply into his flesh, he quickly vomited a mouthful of blood, feeling sickly and terribly tired. His body was wounded and bleeding, and various internal organs had been lethally wounded with those attacks. The man felt completely exhausted as he started to bleed severely, he began to convulse out of how much pain he felt, and he started to crawl away like a pathetic rat.
“I just... I just wanted to avenge my father!!!” He cried. “Let me go...! D-Don’t kill me... Please...”
The Blue Demon asked for mercy to Ninhursag, she knew he had not done anything wrong to her family, nor to all those that died by the hands of his parents, in fact, he wasn’t in fault for any of these things as he had even yet to be born back then... But he had attempted to kill the amazon, and although he didn’t managed to kill anybody, it was all thanks to the hard work of Allan, Shade, Faylen, and Nepheline.
Aberno looked fearfully at Ninhursag, her monstrous form seemed incredibly fearful, he felt like he was going to finally die, and perhaps, on his death, he would met his father and his mother once more. He trembled in fear, feeling more alive than ever before, his dullness disappeared, his expressionlessness disappeared, and he realized that he had all of those traits he always thought he lacked.
Ninhursag slowly approached him as her claws extended towards him, about to slice through him and kill him... Her eyes were filled with cold ruthlessness. She watched at Aberno’s last moments of life, as he trembled, barely able to move, with no strength at all, his body was bleeding out, and he would probably die out of natural causes anyways if he were left in such a state...
“Mother... Father...” He muttered, as he began to murmur his last thoughts.
And as he said those words, Ninhursag claws suddenly stopped before tearing him apart.
