"True Spirit Body."
The moment she said those words, the red lightning erupted.
"!!!" Noel widened his eyes in shock and regret. He had failed to stop Anna from using it. On the other hand, he felt that Anna made this decision too hastily, unlike her normal behavior, making him a bit suspicious.
Nevertheless, it didn't change the fact that Anna had used her True Spirit Body.
The lightning was so red that it felt like it had been dyed by her own blood. From the chant alone, it seemed that her blood was a catalyst or a bridge to this power, so it was no wonder that the lightning turned red.
In fact, yellow lightning alone was already different from the normal lightning in the sky, so it could change its color as much as she wanted.
What piqued Noel's interest was actually a pair of horns that appeared on top of her head. She looked like the devil he had read in the books during his time as the young master of the Ardagan Family.
'Still, what should I do? She has used the True Spirit Body. According to Ardagan, getting heavily injured in that state would be over for her. It seems that as long as she is not getting injured, it should be fine. There will definitely be some setbacks, but her life won't be in danger.' Noel thought.
Without him realizing it, he clenched his sword tighter as if he was swearing in his heart to ensure the situation didn't reach that point.
Nonetheless, no matter how worried Noel was, what truly mattered was the power that red lightning contained. If Anna couldn't fight back even with the True Spirit Body, then they would definitely be screwed. Noel was also ready to use the talisman to inform Old Ru.
It appeared that his worry was unnecessary. The moment the red lightning erupted, it immediately blasted the earthworm, completely stopping its momentum.
Anna's eyes were cold and devoid of emotions despite the fact that her power was granted by a berserker spirit.
Anna picked up a thumb-sized rock from the ground and tossed it to the earthworm as powerful as possible.
The red lightning blasted the rock straight into the earthworm's mouth.
However, the earthworm was still a Superior Demon. It wouldn't lose to Anna easily.
When the rock was about to enter his mouth, a translucent barrier suddenly emerged, blocking the rock.
The power contained in that rock was extremely strong to the point where the earthworm's body slightly twitched to the side as if it was getting pushed back. However, the barrier managed to stop the rock as the teeth began channeling their power, removing the red lightning from the rock. As a result, the rock lost its power and fell down.
Obviously, Anna didn't think that a rock could injure the earthworm. The reason why she attached the earthworm was to distract it.
Instead of aiming for the earthworm, Anna actually targeted the other demons, especially the ones that troubled Noel.
She used her lightning to increase her speed and disappear.
Noel had a hard time feeling her presence. In addition, two Peak Level Demons actually attacked him more vigorously, realizing that the Superior Demon would be in danger if they didn't help. Anna was simply that strong.
So, they wanted to eliminate Noel even if they had to risk their lives.
"Kh." Noel was pinned on the ground. He stopped their attacks with his sword, but they used the weight of their bodies to stop him. Of course, Noel could use the Rune to blow them away, but he had to use the remaining Spiritual Energy to form Hardening Rune to the rocks in his surrounding.
After all, the other demons were moving around and shooting their attacks from all directions.
He had to block them and search for a new way to intercept them before he could turn the situation around.
However, all that didn't matter. After all, a red lightning spark suddenly entered his vision.
"Huh?" Noel widened his eyes in shock as he hurriedly covered his body with Spiritual Energy.
As he expected, the red lightning electrocuted the two demons on top of him and blasted them away.
"!!!" Noel lowered his vision and saw Anna standing on top of a demon corpse.
The horns made her look more confident and raised the intensity of her glare. From that cold, emotionless face appeared a smile… or a big grin. The grin felt like a challenge.
"Are you done, Noel? To think you would be troubled by them? There are even more demons coming here." Anna pointed at the demons that had just fallen to this place and headed to intercept them.
But Anna disappeared once again as she actually headed to the rest of the demons around Noel and killed each demon with a single slash.
The demons tried to stop her, but it was useless. When the rat tried to use the claws that managed to stop Noel's sword the entire time actually got cut by Anna's sword. The red lightning shattered the claws into pieces and the Spiritual Energy around the sword expanded, slashing the rat.
When the other demons used their own abilities that should work against Noel, it was rendered useless by Anna.
They were shocked, but that was the last reaction from them before they died. In just thirty seconds, she actually killed ten demons.
On the other hand, the earthworm obviously wouldn't sit down when Anna annihilated his army. As soon as it stopped Anna's rock, it immediately turned around and chased after her.
Noel couldn't help but admire Anna's power, but that wasn't the time for it. Since Anna had chosen to eliminate the other demons to remove the variables in this battlefield, he had to make sure the biggest variable didn't interfere.
He jumped forth to the earthworm and used Fire Gale to heat it up, invoking its reaction.
The earthworm actually flapped its lower body and caused the cave to vibrate.
"!!!" Noel almost lost his balance, but that wasn't enough to defeat him. He used the Undying Phoenix to buy some time while using the Phoenix Wings to get airborne.
The earthworm had taken them seriously the moment it witnessed Anna's extraordinary power. Its upper body raised for a bit before slamming it to the ground.
A few huge spikes suddenly emerged from the ground, almost impaling Noel.
"Kh." Noel clicked his tongue. Luckily, he had the Phoenix Wings to shift his body position. If not, he would definitely die from that attack.
After avoiding the spikes, he stepped on one of them and jumped into the ceiling.
An ice lotus shot out its petals at the earthworm.
The earthworm covered its skin with Spiritual Energy while moving like a snake, avoiding the blast.
However, Noel didn't seem to give up. He shot a few more Ice Petals, forcing the earthworm to avoid it.
After a moment, the earthworm actually realized that it was actually moving away from Anna even though it wanted to stop her.
It turned out Noel shot the ice petals to create a track for the earthworm. It was extremely effective since Noel could see everything from the ceiling.
After the earthworm realized and flapped its body all over to crush the ice crystals, Noel dove and kicked the earthworm's head.
*Bam!*
He had reinforced his momentum with the Enhance Forward Rune, so the momentum actually knocked the earthworm to the ground.
The latter released another wave of Spiritual Energy, making him remember the first wave, which called for reinforcement.
However, there was something different from this Spiritual Energy. He could feel that his body became numb when exposed to this energy.
He hurriedly jumped away to reassess the situation.
But that was also the time when Anna returned to his side.
"Hehe. It seems that I will win this time around." Anna's voice echoed from the right side.
Noel turned around and found Anna standing on top of numerous demon corpses. When he looked around, he realized that Anna had taken care of the remaining demons. Of course, there were still some demons that had yet to arrive, considering there were still six demons remaining in his mission.
But it was still surprising to see Anna killing all the demons here within a minute.
"What's wrong? Are you speechless after witnessing the power of the True Spirit Body? Even if you asked me this time, I couldn't teach you." Anna smirked.
Noel realized that the berserker spirit had actually influenced her action. The reason why she put on that cold, emotionless front was because if she opened that mouth, the spirit's nature would flow out.
"This form is cool, right? I have a pair of horns here… How do I look?" Anna teased Noel.
Noel only put a genuine smile as he said, "I'm just glad that you're not injured."
"Mhm?" Anna's body shook as she looked shocked. She didn't expect Noel to say such a thing. In fact, this might be the nicest thing Noel had said in the past few months. She didn't realize that her cheeks were slightly reddened.
"How is your Spiritual Energy? Can you still go on?" Noel shifted the topic back since the earthworm had recovered and was about to attack them.
"I still have about forty percent of my Spiritual Energy left. I can definitely heavily injure this demon. The rest will depend on your performance." Anna nodded.
"Is that so?" Noel raised his sword and glared at the earthworm. Now that the demons had been eliminated, all they had to do was kill this last one. "Let's kill this giant demon."
