Free Web NovelVieya’s arrival clearly did not make Youze feel surprised or caught off guard. The bright, identical smiles on both of their faces proved exactly that.
Likewise, Youze could see that Vieya was now in a kind of “magic runaway” special state, her body overflowing with the glow of magic. While this state could greatly boost someone’s combat strength, the longer it continued, the heavier the burden it placed on the body.
Youze found it strange why the other party had entered a “magic runaway” state, and even stranger how she was stabilizing it—her thoughts showed no sign of disorder at all, and even her aura remained in a balanced “runaway” equilibrium.
It was too strange, as if an unseen divine hand forcibly held both ends of a scale perfectly level.
Was it the effect of Authority?
Heh, it wasn’t surprising for the Black Holy Sword’s master to have some power of Authority, but historically the sword masters were all Heroes—could this monster girl also be a hidden Hero?
All these anomalies seemed to proclaim Vieya’s dangerous mystery and invincibility.
But Youze didn’t show the slightest fear. Instead, she happily clapped her hands, as if the one standing at the doorway wasn’t her mortal enemy but an old friend who came to spar.
“How interesting, how interesting. I’ve waited for you a long time. Seems the main character of our proper show showed up late, but finally arrived.”
Seeing that the real target had come, Youze didn’t bother playing with Allison and the others anymore. With a few flashes she appeared before the slime girl, speaking in a teasing tone: freeωebnovēl.c૦m
“Looks like you not only ran into our little assassin miss, but also had some conflict with her. I hope she’s... fine. After all, we put a lot of work into her. But it seems you liked her too, enough to spend so much time on her.”
“Listening to your tone... you sound rather proud?”
Vieya subtly pulled Jasmine behind her; the gentle smile she had just shown her daughter was already gone, her voice revealing no joy or anger.
“Seems you and your group have values very different from mine. In that case, there’s nothing more to say.”
“No no no.” Youze denied repeatedly, shaking her head. “Didn’t you see, in that lovely little assassin, the possibility of a human defeating a monster with a human body? That was our unprecedented, magnificent experiment—combining human obedience with monster power. When human rationality and monster instinct fuse together, weren’t you moved by that breathtaking beauty?”
“No. There was no moving, only disgust toward your methods.”
Vieya said softly, and she signaled with her eyes to Irena and Allison, who were hiding nearby, to “come here.”
“Now tell me: you spread the fly plague in this city—what exactly are you trying to do?”
“What fly plague? Those are fly-type monsters we cultivated.”
Youze widened her eyes as if shocked. “Each time they combine with humans, they provide us with more data, helping us perfect this grand project of integrating humans and monsters.”
She paused, looked Vieya up and down, and continued, “It’s not knowledge a book-illiterate humanoid monster like you could understand. But I can give you a chance—a chance to better understand our technology and ideals.”
“That’s enough. Leave that opportunity for yourselves.” Vieya said softly.
Meanwhile, Irena and Allison had also quietly moved near the doorway, ready to find an opening to run out.
“You violently graft monster cores and spinal columns onto humans, without considering compatibility or rejection. With that alone, you’re merely relying on power to do whatever you want.” Vieya said softly.
“It’s only because mortals are too weak, unable even to resist mere flies.”
Youze smiled, reaching out to block Allison and Irena as they tried to slip past her, speaking softly.
“If only we had a few more experimental specimens like little assassin miss—excellent and cooperative—maybe we would’ve succeeded already.”
“Experimental specimens?”
“Yes.”
“You treat companions as experimental specimens—is this what you call an organization?”
“Who says it’s not?” Youze shrugged. “But so what? The weak must survive by submitting to the strong.”
As she spoke, she smiled. “If you were the leader among our nine Dealers of Tianyuan, then even if you told me to kneel right now and lick your boots, or walk me on a chain for all to see, I would obey without hesitation.”
“But too bad—you are not. She is not. They are not! So just now, your daughter was kicked around by me like a sandbag...”
The moment her words fell, several glowing blue tentacles appeared behind Vieya, stabbing viciously toward Youze’s neck and heart. But Youze blocked them all with her right hand wrapped in pitch-black magic.
Taking the opening, Irena and Allison ran out, but Youze acted as if she didn’t see them. She only looked at Vieya and leisurely mocked:
“Getting impatient? Honestly, your daughter felt pretty good to hit—she didn’t hurt my hands. Shame I don’t know what you feel like, as a mom...”
Vieya suddenly closed in, striking out with a punch too fast to catch, aimed directly at a fatal point.
But Youze was unbelievably quick. With a slight shift of her feet, she retreated several meters, Vieya’s fierce fist wind only grazing her clothes.
She smiled slightly. “Seems your daughter is your weak spot. Just a little provocation and you lose composure. Aren’t you worried what will happen if you lose? Or have your countless victories made you unable to judge the situation?”
“Eh? That’s strange. Aren’t you the Black Holy Sword master? Why aren’t you using the sword and switching to fists now? Could it be that the magic rampaging inside you keeps you from swinging the Holy Sword freely?”
“It’s simply that a piece of trash like you, who isn’t even as good as a monster, is unworthy of it.” Vieya enunciated word by word. “Born human, yet living like you can’t even manage being human. A bunch of scum!”
“What scum? We’re beings who have transcended the low tastes of humanity.”
Youze sneered. “In this world, being an ordinary human is the greatest tragedy!”
“The tragedy you speak of is nothing but a fig leaf ✪ Nоvеlіgһt ✪ (Official version) to cover your own incompetence while dragging all humanity down with you!”
Vieya fully displayed the advantages of her body, using the solidified tentacles as her third, fourth, and fifth hands. For a moment, even facing the combined attacks of two people, she firmly held the upper hand.
“I’m incompetent?”
Youze seemed almost amused, blocking Vieya’s attacks while counterattacking, saying:
“I really don’t know where a monster girl like you gets so much empathy for humans. Hehe, did giving birth to a daughter for a human make you give birth to your brain too?”
Vieya said nothing, but her blows grew more and more ferocious. The moment she closed the distance—
Her fists rained down on Youze’s cheeks like a storm! fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
Even if Youze’s defense was fast, the slime girl’s superior hand-to-hand combat still left several heavy punches right on Youze’s face!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
A series of dense impacts sounded, each blow landing solidly. The parts of Youze’s face she failed to guard swelled into a huge bruise.
