"Uhhhh…
This is not good, is it…?"
Nux questioned with a confused expression on his face.
"Trust them a little, will you?"
Amaya, who was standing right next to him spoke with a confident smile on her face.
"Anyways, you went to Astaria, didn't you? How is she doing?"
Amaya questioned.
"Hmm? How would I know that?"
"You just me-"
"You think we talked?"
Nux questioned with a playful smile on his face.
Amaya quickly realized what he meant and shook her head.
"Also, did you forget?
We have a bet,
We would be keeping our progress a secret from each other till the time we all meet again."
Nux smiled.
"I know that but… I didn't think she would hide it from you as well…"
Amaya replied.
"Heh, don't try that on me, Amaya.
Even if I did know anything, I will not betray Star's trust, just like I won't betray yours."
Amaya looked into Nux's eyes.
"Not that I know anything, of course." Nux smiled.
In the end, Amaya just sighed.
"Hiding our progress huh…
Do you really think she can beat…
That?"
She then glanced at Thyra and Ember who were fighting…
Around 50 Beasts.
Yes.
Fifty 7 Star beasts.
There were five 8 Star Beasts, however, those didn't matter.
8 Star Beasts were a little too much for Nux's women right now.
They were equivalent to Sages, after all.
And even after a year had passed, none of the women had broken through the Sage Realm. Not that they were aiming to increase their cultivation anyways,
They only focused on increasing their mastery over their spells, increasing their teamwork, learning new spells, incorporating them into their fighting style, or even changing their fighting style altogether.
Actually, with the introduction of spells, some of Nux's wives had finally found their actual roles in the team.
Not everyone had to be a one-on-one expert, after all.
Some needed to focus solely on attacks, some on defense, and some on battle control. Combine that with their Telepathic Connection that even Eisheth failed to detect,
They are like organs of a single body, working together with such perfection that one would think that they have been doing it for centuries.
*BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM*
While Amaya and Nux were talking to each other, they heard explosions.
Thyra had appeared directly in the middle of the beast horde, however, while the beasts all focused on her,
10 Magic Circles appeared under the ground, and without waiting for a second, they all exploded.
Creating Chaos all over the horde.
The 8 Star Beasts were confused.
That Magic Spell was too fast, there is no way Thyra could have casted a spell that big just as she appeared there. This was absolutely impossib-
Or maybe…
Thyra wasn't the one who actually casted that spell in the first place.
The 8 Star Beasts glanced at the other woman who they forgot about and finally noticed a black-red-haired woman, who was preparing another spell.
Of course, the Beasts were never going to allow her to do that,
They glanced at each other, then one of the beasts nodded, it disappeared and appeared right behind Ember.
However, just as it appeared behind Ember,
A purple-black colored wall appeared in front of the Beast.
The Beast sensed that this wall was strong, so rather than wasting time in breaking the wall, it tried to turn away, only to notice that it was trapped,
He was prisoned by these Purple Black walls.
And that was not the end of it.
The Beast tried to use its innate ability, however, a Black Colored Mist appeared out of nowhere. The Beast's body language changed.
It could sense it.
That Mist was… dangerous.
It threatened its life.
"ROOAAARRRRR!!"
The Fiery Ape, an 8 Star Beasts roared, calling for help.
The other 4 Beasts quickly understood that it was in trouble.
However, they had another thing to deal with.
Thyra, who was ready with her new spell, opened her eyes, her blue eyes shined with a silvery glow, and with an expressionless look on her face,
"Stormbringer."
The moment she spoke those words,
The Atmosphere changed.
The White Colored Magic Circle that was 1 Meter above Thyra's head, sucked Mana at a horrifying rate,
The more Mana it sucked, the more it glowed,
The surrounding winds started moving a little strangely, one could even see a few clouds that have appeared in the sky, then finally,
Waves and Waves of Wind Blades were formed around the Magic Circle, and suddenly, all those Wind Blades were shot in all directions.
*Whoosh* *Whoosh* *Whoosh*
"Aawwooo!!"
"Rooaaaaarrrr!!"
"Grrrrraaarrrhhhh!!"
After that,
It was complete carnage.
Even though the spell was not casted perfectly, in the end, the 7 Star Beasts were completely helpless in front of a 10 Star Spell,
Blood fell all over the place, and it was not an instant death either. The Wind Blades had no eyes, the lucky beasts had their head chopped off, however,
The unlucky ones…: owner of this content.
Eyes, mouth, horns, skin, ears, fingers, paws, tails, and even limbs, the Wind Blades continued to cut through everything, killing those beasts one by one, it was as if the Death God himself descended to their lives.
Even the 8 Star Beasts had to back off and jump out of the range of the Spell to not get affected by it.
That was the only thing they could do.
Watch helplessly while their subordinates are being slaughtered like pigs and the woman responsible for that, was standing right in front of them and their subordinates, however, none of them could even walk close to her, let alone kill her.
That, in front of them, was that hateful woman's domain.
A domain that even they could not enter.
"ROOAARR!!"
Suddenly, Vector Main, a Lion Type 8 Star Beast, roared.
The other Beasts understood, they all turned towards Ember, that hateful woman's subordinate.
She killed their subordinate, it is only fair they do the same to her, wasn't it?
Thinking about that, the Beasts roared, however, just as they were about to rush toward Ember,
The Purple Prison formed behind Ember, which had trapped their comrade, disappeared.
Black Mist came out of the Prison and once the Mist disappeared,
The only thing left was of their comrade were…
The Bones.
