Chapter 258
258 The Fiery White Bride
(Jane’s PoV)
The painful roar of the monster made the air around us trembling. The wind howled and swirled wildly, messing with my hair -even when I was still in my spirit form. My surrounding turned chaotic in instant, but those men didn’t show any signs of waking up. It couldn’t be helped since the owner of the aura was currently losing control of itself -thanks to me. Even the voice of its comrade was treated as nuisance by it as it swung its large hand towards the other devil.
“Damn it! You’re a goner!” The androgynus devil spat as it dodged the attack. Its handsome -or beautiful? -face was contorted in displeasure. Its fingers turned into black sharp claws and it attacked the monster ferociously.
I didn’t need to do anything since the other devil was surprisingly vengeful. It didn’t even consider that they were in the same team. Just because the monster had attacked it once, it was triggered and wanted to counterattack. It wasn’t long before the both of them were entangled in a fierce fight.
What was I doing at this particular time? I would be stupid if I didn’t use the time to my benefit.
Ignoring their chicken fight, I put a barrier around them so that their fight wouldn’t harm humans, then I walked towards the portal and did the same thing that I did in the forest. Since it was the second time I fiddled with the portal, I didn’t find it as difficult as the first one. Soon, the portal was closing down in the speed of the naked eyes.
“Shit! The portal is closing down!” The lust devil shouted.
When I turned around, I saw it had turned into its monster form and was beating down the helpless lazy monster.
Well, the latter was wounded by my fire so of course, its energy was drained faster than the former. However, I noticed the lazy devil’s hand was grabbing the lusty devil tightly.
.....
It seemed that it refused to go down alone. Since the lusty devil insisted to come along, then they should die together as well.
What a view! As expected of the devil. I watched the one sided match quietly, but soon it was getting boring. They totally forgot about me. Remembering the first time I saw them, I couldn’t believe that I found them frightening. I even questioned their level of intelligence considering how easy I accomplished this task. The one in the forest resisted harder than these two, I thought.
Then, let’s just end this!
It wouldn’t be long before the lazy monster died and I wanted to use the momentum. With the lusty devil entangled closely to the lazy one, it would be hard to escape my fire.
With a flick of my fingers, the small fire inside the lazy monster reacted and used the flesh and bones of the monster as its firewood in instant. The lazy monster didn’t even have time to scream as the fire burned it to ashes quickly.
The lusty devil -to my disappointment – narrowly escaped from the bright fire. It was surprisingly quiet agile for its big form. Terror filled its big eyes but I was too lazy to investigate the source of its fear.
“Y-you...” It was staggering backward as its finger pointing at me. “How-”
“The portal has closed down.” I took a peek towards the portal. “You don’t have any way to return to your place. Why don’t you join your friend?” I asked lazily.
Fire appeared on my hand and its blue colour created a rather creepy illumination around me. My finger flicked a bit and it turned green. Then another flick and it turned red.
What I didn’t realize that the humans around me were slowly waking up. Since the lazy monster had gone, its aura started to dissipate slowly. However, the lusty devil was still here and it was still excreting its aphrosidiac-like aura. It was, of course, affecting the humans and soon my surroundings was heating up.
They couldn’t see us, of course, but we could see them perfectly clear. The amount of lust in the air was enough to put p*rn industry to shame. It was so strong that I was sure anyone within the radius would be affected by it even if they just listened to it.
With the strong lust in the air, it meant a source of power for the devil.
Maybe it felt a large amount of lust in the air, the lusty devil found its courage and charged towards me in attempt to bring me down.
But, its movement was so slow in my eyes that I could easily evade it and counterattack it at the same time. My right palm went to its heart -if it had heart -and struck it square. The devil was sent flying with a mouthful of blood spraying in the air. It hit the snow outside the high fence around the hot spring and created a dent on the ground.
Just the time to get out from this place, I thought. I jumped towards where the devil had fallen. It was gathering its power again, preparing an attack towards me. The striking colour of lust moved towards it, swirling around it as it provided power for the devil.
“I refuse to bow down to a human!” It gritted its sharp teeth, then it released a sharp cry along with its attack.
I sighed. “Who asked you to bow down to me?” Mist of smoke rose from my body and under my order, it captured the ball of lust aimed at me.
I clutched my hand and the ball of power was crushed into nothingness. The blacklash was quiet powerful towards it since I watched it was sent flying while spraying another mouthful of blood. If it were a human, I was sure its face would be as pale as paper. However, it was pretty much satisfying to me to see its ugly face contorted with the pain.
“Since the portal is closed, you can’t linger for too long here either. Let me send you to another place.” I walked towards it slowly with the ball of flames dancing behind my back.
The wind was howling around me and white mist rose with the momentum. The ball of flames rose higher, along with the wind and swirled quietly and fast. The faster they moved, the quicker the ring of blue flame was created. The white mist covered the top of the ring, as if unperturbed with how the wind was running amok around us. Even the snow was flying here and there, but the white mist didn’t even budge and kept moving as if it had its own will.
Well, it was not entirely wrong since it was connected to me and I had full control over it.
The white mist thickened and it formed a long scarf covering the top of the blue ring to the snow. I was practically standing below the ring and the mist was around me, like a bride’s veil. Then slowly, the flame from the ring descended like a soft waterfall, hueing the white mist into soft blue glow with red streaks here and there.
All of these happened in less than one minute, and it was the first time I used it towards anything -or anyone.
The devil was trying to escape, but my barrier prevented him to do so. Its desperate struggle looked futile in my eyes. Somehow, it looked annoying that I needed to finish it off as soon as possible.
The second when my ultimate attack was ready, I threw it towards it. It was instantly covered from head to toes with the fiery white veil made from my mist and the flame of White Army.
The fiery white bride – this name was given by Siji after I concluded this move during our training.
It looked beautiful, but deadly, he said.
The painful scream reverberated through the dim sky and the devil tried to break free from the fiery veil. However, it only got tighter around it as the flame burned it slowly.
It was pure torture, but towards disgusting creature like it, I didn’t even have an ounce of pity.
Turning my back towards the burning devil, I looked towards the resort in front of me. The laziness had dissipated almost all of it but the lust power was still strong.
It was another troublesome work, I sighed.
I opened both of my palms and my mist started pouring out of my body towards the resort. In a short time, I had covered the whole resort with it.
Here comes the annoying part....
