Death... and me
chapter-505

*Bang!*

The Wrath of the Thunder God hit the Water Dragon Head's projection on Malaka's staff, immediately bending it with its power. Without the help of Calina's Glacial Armor, Malaka's arm would have been blasted away. Fortunately, the two girls held it by a thread with their full strength.

*Crack!*

Immediately, they heard Malaka's bones cracking together with the Glacial Armor on her arm. Lightning ran through their bodies, which made both Calina and Malaka cough blood straight away. Nonetheless, they gritted their teeth and ignored the pain as Calina did her best to keep the armor whole.

Eventually, the counterforce made Malaka's staff spin its Water Dragon Tail's projection against Pata's head with every ounce of power from her own strike.

Pata couldn't believe that these girls stopped her Wrath of the Thunder God, much less that they would redirect the strength of her attack back at herself. Of course, she still had a higher cultivation level than Malaka and Calina. That gave her enough time to at least react and protect her head with her own arms.

*Bang! Kabrum! Crack!*

The sound of bones breaking apart came from Pata's arms as she was blasted away by Malaka's Spinning Dragon Tail. However, Pata completely ignored the pain as anger appeared on her face. She was furious that two Core Formation Realm girls from the outside world caused her such damage.

"I'll kill you!"

However...

"No, you won't."

A chill spread throughout Pata's body as she remembered the two guys behind her. She ignored everything and immediately used her defensive skill before even confirming where the twins were coming from.

'Devouring Thunder Wall!'

Unfortunately, something unbelievable happened. Right below where she landed, a giant sphere of water began to take form. The Thunder Wall was disrupted by the water there, not being able to form in time.

'Water Prison!'

On the other side, Calina's hand extended in Pata's direction as she looked at her with a ghastly pale expression. Even after such a huge blow, Calina didn't stop and prepared the following action.

Roan couldn't help but faintly smile at that sight. That was a lesson he carved into those girls' heads time and time again. Never relax. Always think about what comes next.

The twins wouldn't possibly let this opportune chance slip.

'Death Style, Third Form, Three Claws of the Dragon!'

'Life Fire, Flame Emperor Slash!'

Pata could only use all her Spiritual Energy to create a barrier around her body before the twins and their clones' strikes hit her. Unfortunately, that was far from enough.

*Swish, swish, swish.*

*Bang! Bang!*

Attacked from all sides by the twins' full-strength strikes, not to mention that Rean's swords were being used, how could a simple Spiritual Energy barrier block it? If she was in the Nascent Soul Realm, maybe it would be possible, but that wasn't the case.

Pata's body was mutilated even before Calina's Water Prison finished forming.

However, one must remember that Kentucky couldn't hold all three High-Level Core Formation Realm enemies for more than a second or so. So, the moment Calina finished her attack, two of the guys already got rid of Kentucky's disturbance and attacked Calina while she was unprotected.

'Thunder God Crash!'

'Holy Wind Pierce!'

However, Calina wasn't alone.

'Death Water Style, First Defensive Form, Reversive Arcs!'

Roan's defensive skill then took form through Malaka's hands. However, it wasn't the same. She could use both ends of the staff to create the reversive arcs that Rean and Roan could only do with one blade. There was also the fact that Malaka used only Water ELement instead of Light and Dark. It had both its advantages and disadvantages. But at that moment, it was more than enough to protect Calina.

Malaka's body was severely injured by the Lightning Element from Pata, not to mention that one of her arms' bones was broken in several places. That's why neither of the enemies thought that Malaka would be able to recover and defend Calina. However, they underestimated Malaka's perseverance.

"Broken arm? Injured body? This is nothing compared to the ice block's training!"

What the hell was she talking about... or so the two guys thought. Unfortunately, there was nothing they could do about it.

*Bang, bang!*

Malaka's body was blasted away together with Calina, who was just behind her. The two girls crashed several times on the ground and could barely stand after that. The guys naturally took that chance to kill them once and for all. Unfortunately, it was already too late.

'Death Style, First Form, Stellar Piercer!'

'Death Style, Second Form, Crescent Moon!'

Roan aimed his Stellar Piercer at the guys while Rean used the Crescent Moon's wide range to force them to retreat.

*Clang, clang!*

The Lakure Race members could only give up so that they could defend themselves.

On the other side, Zuo saw how everything turned out and felt grievance at the sight of Pata's death. Still, he understood that they couldn't do anything in this situation anymore. Even though those two girls were now out of commission, the twins were much stronger than them. Those Late and Peak Core Formation Realm guys wouldn't be able to hold them. He wanted to help, but even after using his Fire Incarnation, he didn't obtain any advantage against Wano.

Both Fire Incarnation and Lightning Incarnation were skills that increased their power substantially. It looked very much like the Rumbling Core that Rean and Roan saw in the past. Naturally, it consumed a lot of Spiritual Energy as well. If things continued like that, he would also run out of energy. Anyone could imagine what would happen to him after that.

'Retreat!'

Zuo's Spiritual Sense spread forward and reached all the low-level cultivators and the still battling members. The impressive thing was that none of them seemed to be afraid. Instead, they cursed out loud as they followed Zuo's command. If Zuo didn't say anything, they would have fought to the death, but they had to follow orders.

"Don't follow them."

Rean, Kentucky, and Wano nodded. Those were not the only enemies around. They needed to leave straight away before more of them appeared.

*Chick!*

*Crack!*

Kentucky immediately pierced the Red Crystal they left behind with his beak before lifting it with his body. Rean and Roan also put the girls on their backs.

"Let's head back."

Wano then went to the front as the twins and Kentucky followed right behind. Their battle was finally over.
