Elluet takes a time to admire his new gear, then with a single sweep of his sword he incinerates the vines and monster plant that were heading towards him.

Elluet: This power… is what I need to prove that I am a Hero, those plants are no match for me now not even you monster.

He points his sword towards Cattleya, but she hasn’t flinch an inch, she knows that the power given by Houhua will only lead Elluet to death.

Cattleya: An armor only protects you from physical attacks.

She shows her mastery in the magic arts by creating various magic circles around her, these gather mana and take the shape of small bullets, each magic circle has around 30 of these. She stretches her arm with a first, as soon as she opened it the circles start shooting, the bullets are not complete focused in Elluet as they also hit those around them.

The barrage is reckless even if the human don’t die directly they can feel the pain of being shoot the screams are loud the citizens are terrify by them, some of the adventurers are losing enough Ether for their Ethereal Body to vanish leaving their physical body unprotected to magic making them receive physical damage instead, because of that their bodies are being torn apart by the bullets leaving limp flying all over the place and unrecognizable bodies.

Orchid: *Nods her head up*

Victoria: Why?

Orchid: Because that lizard is so determined in killing us.

Orchid: Just telling my mom will unleash a highly venomous magic in the whole town.

Everyone around that was reaching the cage place heard it and start to lose control over it.

Gustav: Then we have to aid Elluet to kill that monster.

As Gustav turn in direction to Elluet in order to aid him Orchid grab his hand with a vine stopping him from advancing.

Orchid: Saying that in front of me, you sure have gust, but we have to put the citizens safe.

Ryckna: She is right; they should be in the church taking refuge.

Kori: But the town is surround by the vines making impossible to get out.

Orchid: Go to the church I have something in mind.

Soon Cattleya realize what Houhua is looking for.

Cattleya: I see but I won’t give it to you.

Elluet: What *gasp* are you mumbling.

Cattleya: This town death.

The earth shakes, the vines around the town start to glow with a violet light, from the sky only light can be seen then a cloud of venom.

Houhua: Smart indeed, you too Sugar.

Sugar: That woman sure is having some strange ideas, copy the magic of an alraune venom, would you tell why she need that.

Houhua: No.

Houhua disappears in the night sky.

Sugar: Hope you are safe Vici.
