Chapter 21
She waved her hand and showed Sylva her choices.
"Pick one; choose the strongest and the thing you wish to evolve in."
Unlike Dhampy, Sylva decided rather quickly. But just like Dhampy, she chose the one with the biggest chance of improvement.
"Silver Wanderer, that is quite unique."
"...Thank you."
Although the world had changed, and Lilith had seen a lot of things, the Portals are still connected to the other worlds and these worlds have a lot of different daemons.
[Silberofer –u003e Silver Wanderer
Requirements:
[] Soul of a Pixie/Fairy
[] Rare-tier Mana Core]
[] Are you sure you want to allocate [732 LE] to your follower [Sylva] to evolve into a –u003e [Silver Wanderer]? Y/N?
She chose yes and was stripped 732 LE in a flash. She had killed a lot of daemons before and had a lot of LE in stuck.
Timer: 7:24:59:59
'Eight days, she's going to take a longer time than Dhampy.'
Lilith watched as Sylva close her eyes and go to the process of evolution.
'This is still weird no matter how many times I see it.'
She was sure that this is not the way a daemon evolves.
She watched in some doc.u.mentary, a daemon's evolution takes weeks, months, and even years to complete. It was not something so instantaneous as this one.
But she won't complain. Letting out a yawn, Lilith did her best to move the two b.a.l.l.s and went inside the mansion.
She slept for about six hours and went to kill daemons. She needs to level up, she doesn't have anything to do anyway so why not?
In her free time, she practised her manattribute manipulation and increased her ability to create spells.
She increased her manipulation and gained more ability in terms of controlling objects and the elements. For Lilith, forming a spear out of any of the elements were easy especially in terms of manipulating the greeneries around her, that was an easy thing to do.
[Improved Pa.s.sive: Mana Manipulation (A), Spell Casting (A), Fire Manipulation (B), Wind Manipulation (A), Earth Manipulation (B), Wood/Nature Manipulation (A), Nature's Blessing (A)
New Pa.s.sive: Light Manipulation (B)]
She was now stronger in her Two Horn form. She went hunting and using wind manipulation's movement a.s.sistance and earth manipulation's weight control, she managed to fly although it did take her half a day to complete.
The Nightmare Dragonkin's ability to fly was not basically irrelevant if it went against the Two Horn form. And upon realizing this, Lilith got to see the strength of the Two Horns.
"This is stronger than I would have thought? Can this actually be stronger than everything that I can become?"
Lilith did not know, but, she got interested in finding out its limits. Two days before Dhampy came out of her coc.o.o.n, Lilith went out. It was night and dark only the moon provided light for her to see the path.
'Maybe I should try heading for Section 5.' Lilith was in an area of the Forest of Beasts that is between Sections 4 and 5.
The Forest of Beasts has 8 Sections in total. Sections 1, 2, and 3 are the deepest parts of the Forest, it was where the strongest of factions lies. In between the Sections of each is a place called the neutral area where it is outside the jurisdiction of any dominant race.
Lilith wished to head to Section 5. That is the area where the Pixies cannot go as it is outside their territory. Not that she has any problems with Pixies other than they are weird, but, Lilith simply wish to avoid them.
She wishes not to get involve with any of Political disputes if they have any.
'They have Royalties, so they should have those right?'
Lilith was thinking a lot of useless things as she heads to Section 5.
The roars of daemons could be heard echoing throughout the woods late at night. The Nocturnal predators lurk in the shadows, waiting for their prey to become vulnerable, so they can strike and feast for the night.
A Black Armored Panther lurks in the shadows. Its yellow beastly eyes
The Elephant Rhino was a big daemon, it was a Black Rhino the size of an elephant after all. Its power overshadows that of the Black Armored Panther yet its target will not change.
The Panther waited until the Elephant Rhino showed and opening and the Panther did not miss it and pounced at a moment's notice.
"Roar!"
A roar came out of the Panther's mouth, the Rhino turned to run away, but it was all too late. The Moment it heard the roar of the Panther, all hope was lost. The full teeth of the Panther buried itself to the neck of the Rhino.
The Rhino thrashed the area trying to shake the d.a.m.n Panther off it. Trees fell as it did so but no matter what it did, its fate did not change and a big chunk was torn of its body.
"Roar!"
The Rhino let out a final roar of despair before falling flat to the ground, dead and unmoving. It was a pathetic sight for the Rhino. As for the Panther, it stood on top of the Elephant Rhino's dead body. Its blood-stained fangs emanated a terrible aura.
It roared to announced its before!
"Roa–Raaaaa!"
But its victory was cut short as vines brought it high in the skies. With its being handled on the tail, the Panther saw the world upside down. The next scene was rather pitiful because before the Panther could even react its body was slammed to the hard ground.
It tried to cut the vine but failed. It was slammed to the ground a couple of times and its voice began to sound weaker and weaker. Appearing from the shadows, Lilith watched the end of the Panther drawing near.
With a flick of her wrist, she sent out a Fire Ball to burn the body of the Panther down.
[Level up]
"That was a LVL 29 daemon, I didn't expect it that it will be so easy to hunt it down."
Lilith truly did not expect for the abilities of the Two Horns to be this powerful.
"The strength of every attribute has its own uses I suppose. But what about the other two forms? They should also be special on their rights, I have yet to see their strengths. Mm, I'll train the two forms and see their uses soon."
Lilith was someone who will choose to use the spear even if it's harder to use than the latter if the benefits it will give in the future is going to be bigger.
She will try to maximize her strengths even if she was to be brought down to her knees; Lilith was ready to do anything in her power just to ensure she grows stronger.
Unlike when she was in the neutral areas, Lilith could see the daemons in the Sections are stronger. She is still at the borders of Section 5, but the daemons are already at rare-tier.
She now could see why those wolves would wander in her territory and eat her Goblin meat in the past.
Feeling aggrieved, Lilith felt the need to kill some wolves. And the G.o.ddess seemed to have felt her grief as a wolf pack around LVL 23 wandered adjacent to her, and with a devilish smirk, she killed the wolves en ma.s.se.
The wails of the dying wolves echoed as the petty wrath of Lilith befell them. Lilith tried using the limits of her control over the elements,
She laughs, and laughs, and laughs as the slaughter of the wolves began to excite her. The Gore made her excited and high-strung. Her eyes began to turn crazed as if she was high from power, though she was still in full control of herself.
Lilith was not someone who lets power gets into her head, but, there are times when she just let her carnal desire out. It was a rare event, but when it happens, Lilith lets it out to the fullest.
But, when it happens, her blood churns and she goes to some sort of euphoric sensation, the only downside is that she's too high-strung when it occurs.
Rustle!
"Who's there? DIE!"
The rustling of the adjacent shrub caught Lilith's attention and right after asking she followed up with the most appropriate thing next. She tells them to die.
This place is a daemon infested island, she knows no one other than her followers. Thus, killing anyone and anything that approach her is a must. They may not be enemy, but there's a chance.
Splurt!
Through the vines, Lilith managed to stab something.
But then, her face began to change right after seeing the level of the daemon she had stabbed, she became battle-ready.
[Ogre LVL 35 (rare)]
Attribute: Dark, Poison, Water
HP: 8000/8000
MP: 2000/2000
Snap!
With a snap of her finger and got ready to fight.
'I can kill it if I try hard enough. But d.a.m.n, that HP is too mu...okay, how do I get out of here?'
Lilith was ready to fight, but her battle readiness disappeared as soon she saw ten...twenty...fifty...
'How many are there, G.o.dd.a.m.nit, Alpha, get me a loan, I need a spatial transportation scroll.'
===
[Wait, I don't feel any hostility.]
===
'Alpha, I am not risking it! I hurt one of theirs, do you think it's possible to not be hostile?'
But, Alpha said otherwise.
===
[Wait, just wait for it, Lilith]
===
Lilith didn't want to wait without protection so she was ready with a spell.
Fifty and more Ogres walked out, Lilith was having a fight with Alpha but she was calm on the outside. Her coolness and indifference at this point was some kind of defence mechanism.
The Ogres had bodies like it was crafted from stones. Their abs, arms, legs, and back were akin to a statues'—crafted with a chiselled to perfection.
The one she stabbed on the shoulder stood up before her, by his side was an even bigger Ogre who's LVL 40.
'Oh, I'm so dead Alpha. You better get me that loan or else we'll die.'
===
[We share the same life, trust me on this one.]
===
She was ready to get beaten up, but then every Ogre in the vicinity got on their knees, their foreheads touching the ground, sweating profusely as if they were scared.
"Oh Sacred Sorceress, please forgive us!"
Lilith's mouth was open wide, she could not believe what she was seeing.
'I think, we're going to live.'
===
[I told you so.]
