Chapter 147 No Longer Afraid - IV
It was crying out in extreme fear.
The hunger of the beast king and the terrifying pressure of the double pact heads of Hydral had shattered the soul of this poor little creature that had just been born.
It was left with only one instinct, the instinct to survive.
It had to escape, to get away from this monster, to get away from this terrifying creature that was mixed with various terrifying auras, that wanted to devour it alive, that was extremely dangerous.
The wing-like structures on the Blazing Ice Viper\'s body flapped violently, and as it stirred up a massive cold current and air wave, the gathered ether also lifted it, gradually rising into the sky.
"..."
It took Seraphina a full two seconds to react, and she shouted incredulously:
"Escape!? You, a fourth-stage peak monster, are trying to escape?"
She immediately bent her knees, preparing to leap into the sky with her terrifying physical strength and land on the Blazing Ice Viper, but the moment Seraphina exerted her strength, she suddenly thought of something.
"Ansel—!!"
The girl stood up straight and shouted excitedly, "Where are you!"
"...There\'s no need to shout like that."
Ansel appeared next to Seraphina, somewhat helplessly, "The image you just built up has collapsed."
"If it collapses, it collapses, just build it up again."
Seraphina laughed and hugged Ansel\'s arm, "Can I use that? I want to try it."
"Then you\'d better hurry." Ansel pointed to the sky with a smile, "Your little friend is about to run away."
Seraphina looked up and saw that the Blazing Ice Viper had flown so high, she was immediately startled, "How can such a big thing fly so fast... never mind!"
She cleared her throat and looked at Ansel again with a slightly red face, "If I don\'t do it right the first time, Ansel, you can\'t blame me."
"There\'s no possibility of you not doing well, you\'re my pact head."
Ansel stood behind Seraphina and whispered in her ear:
"Now, take everything you need from me."
"No — !"
Seraphina turned her head and kissed Ansel\'s cheek, holding his hand and lifting it up to the collar around her neck:
"You should let me become your strength, silly Ansel."
The Blazing Ice Viper, in its desperate flight towards the sky, suddenly stiffened, almost plummeting from the air. It mustered all its strength, nearly draining the ether that constituted its body, all in a bid to escape this place. For it had sensed it... it had sensed it! It had sensed that entity, that most terrifying, most despairing monster... descending upon this land!
Its icy wings vibrated once more, the ether pulsating wildly, attempting to ascend to even higher skies, and then—
Then, it could no longer move. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Its massive body was… ensnared by something even larger.
It was... the snake body of the Hydral!
In this snowy plain, only a handful bore witness to this grand spectacle.
The nine-headed serpent, unseen for a long time, reappeared in the world of men!
Behind Seraphina, the true form of the Hydral stood upon the earth, its massive serpent body splitting into nine from the middle. Among these nine bodies, only the one in the middle, the one on the immediate right, and the one on the far left had heads. The places where the heads of the other six bodies should have been were shrouded in thick black fog.
However, upon closer inspection, one could discern that although this Hydral appeared divine and formidable, radiating an overwhelming aura of ferocity, its body\'s outline was not solid, seeming somewhat illusory.
Indeed, this was not the true form of the Hydral, but one of the abilities of the head of strength —
With the permission and support of the Hydral, the head of strength could summon... the projection of the Hydral\'s true form!
Because the Hydral, before splitting its heads and splitting its omnipotence, inherently possessed the ability to create a projection several times larger than its true form using ether. This ability, naturally, was inherited by the pact head.
However, the amount of ether that Ansel and Seraphina currently possessed did not even support the restoration of the projection to the size of the Hydral, let alone making it larger than the Hydral.
But, this was evidently enough.
"How does it feel?" Ansel whispered into Seraphina\'s ear.
"It\'s magical..." the young girl murmured, "It feels like, I\'ve become one with Ansel."
"Our ether won\'t last long, especially yours, Seraphina."
Ansel chuckled, releasing a small electric current from the collar: "Make the most of your time, Seraphina."
His loyal puppy let out a soft moan.
For her now, the electric current could only make her feel numb.
"Your way of urging people is quite unique."
She glared at Ansel with a bashful look, then lifted her head, shifting her gaze to the Blazing Ice Viper tightly coiled by a serpent body.
"I didn\'t want to use this move, because it makes Ansel look powerful, not me."
"But thinking about it... I guess I don\'t need to care about that."
The pact head, who is now inseparable from the Hydral until death, raised her thumb and bent it slightly, and the index finger also bent slightly. The second serpent body shot up into the sky, once again coiling around the body of the Blazing Ice Viper.
"After all, I want people to see how strong I am—"
The middle finger bent slightly, and the third serpent body also brutally coiled around the Blazing Ice Viper, causing this monster to let out extremely mournful roars.
"It\'s to prove—."
The ring finger bent slightly, and when the fourth serpent body shot into the sky and coiled around the body of the Blazing Ice Viper, the entire body of this giant monster was almost completely strangled by the Hydral.
"That Ansel—"
The little finger bent slightly, and the fifth serpent body coiled up, thoroughly strangling the Blazing Ice Viper to death in the blockade.
"Absolutely has never..."
Seraphina slowly closed her five bent fingers into a fist, and the powerful monster at the peak of the fourth stage, like the thinnest paper, was easily crushed, ground, and destroyed, until the young girl\'s eyes reddened, and she roared:
"Misjudged!"
