Divine Emperor of Death
chapter-886

The crowd all looked around, afraid that the King-Tier Dark-Winged Twilight Wolf would appear behind, and devour them in an instant. Panic started to spread among the younger generation experts as they stopped eating and became cautious. Some of the women even moved towards safe places, hoping that the men would shield them from the impending attack.

Ancestor Dian Alstreim narrowed his eyes. His eyes devolved into two tiny slits as shock became visible! He was actually unable to sense the King-Tier Dark-Winged Twilight Wolf hidden in the Grand Welcoming Hall even with his High-Level Supreme Stage soul sense! The Grand Elders had practically trembled as panic became visible in their eyes!

Ancestor Dian Alstreim almost stood up, afraid that the magical beast would end up devouring numerous people as an act of retaliation, but he noticed another person standing on the martial platform. 

That person was a woman, a blindingly beautiful woman who made him feel stunned for a moment. He didn't know when this woman appeared on the martial platform, or a woman of Conferred Queen's caliber was even present in the first place. He momentarily felt that he should warn the woman to back off since there's a King-Tier Magical Beast on the prowl, but when he closely looked at her and felt her aura, his eyes widened into two wide saucers.

The Grand Elders and the Elders also felt the same before they displayed a similar reaction, albeit delayed. Her beauty had even limited their brains, making them not consider how a random yet powerful ink-black haired human could suddenly appear in the Grand Welcoming Hall.

The aura coming from the woman turned out to be a magical beast's aura! It was less and almost undetectable that they initially misinterpreted her to be a human! 

*Gasp!~*

The men in the crowd actually gasped, both from drooling over the beauty before realizing that the beauty was a magical beast. Even the women were momentarily taken aback, almost stunned before envy took them over.

How can a magical beast be attractive and charming than them!?

Nadia stood on the martial platform while being draped in her favorite black robe. Her pupils appeared golden, gleaming in a scintillating light. Her facial features were top-tier as if it were sculpted, and the strange crescent mark on her forehead just made her completely mesmerizing in front of the eyes of the beholder. Her skin was no longer tanned but became pale white as if becoming closer to the moon.

Davis inwardly sighed as he looked at Nadia. She was becoming more and more beautiful. Even though she lost her wild look, she became increasingly elegant with her queenly aura shaping up her dignity and stature.

Unfortunately, there were no wings in her human form. 

When Davis saw that she mutated upon entering the King Beast Stage, the Eighth Stage, she sprouted two beautiful dark wings. He became curious to know what it would be like if her human form possessed dark wings, but he knew that it was bound to be disappointing in a sense.

Horns, tails, wings, paws, claws, and other magical beasts' unique features do not appear in a magical beast's human form. Most of the magical beasts appear with fair white skin, but their hair is shaped by the color of their fur. That is probably the only unique feature they display in their human form.

As for anthropomorphic features, they were only seen in humans who failed to successfully assimilate a magical beast's blood essence, becoming half-human and half-beast.

Coyle Alstreim's eyes, which were wide in astonishment, gradually became normal. Unlike the others, he noticed Nadia the moment she appeared since she was near to him when compared to others. Besides, he was on the lookout for the disappeared King-Tier Magical Beast. Hence, the moment a woman appeared, his battle instincts instantly told him that this woman was a threat!

Becoming a bit relaxed, he sensed that his pores were starting to sweat, and his arms were beginning to tremble. He couldn't believe that he was actually intimidated by a woman. Not only a woman but a female magical beast. His lips couldn't help but twitch as he considered the situation he was placed in.

"What's the meaning of this?" He growled.

This was just a plain insult to him!

"It means that this form of enough for me to defeat you." Nadia's melodious voice echoed as her wrist moved like a snake as she waved her hand in declaration while her gaze was somewhere else, possessing contempt for her opponent.

It seemed that her temperament completely changed from growling or hissing. She spoke words with weight and moved with elegance. Perhaps, her blood was corrupted with the pride of King-Tier.

Coyle Alstreim clenched his fists as his arms shook from the amount of strength he unleashed. His Sixth Stage Martial Ascendance Stage undulations flowed out, but it was of no use in this battle, much less of intimidation.

A magical beast using its human form against a human meant that it was willing to engage in conversation. However, it meant that the magical beast was mostly looking down on the human in a battle!

The fact lay with the human form. Magical beasts were unable to bring out the entirety of their strength and capabilities in their human form. Their power would be limited, and they were unable to bring out more than ninety percent of their full power.

It was just a maximum estimate.

Most magical beasts wouldn't even be able to bring out fifty percent of their power in their human form. Hence, Nadia's action to face him in her human form was an insult to him.

Even when he tried not to become angry, he was unable to stomach this humiliation. The more he tried up suppress, the more it made him unable to endure.

However, a shock ran through him as he remembered that this woman was a King-Tier Magical Beast!

'How stupid of me! I almost foolishly believed that she was just a damned female magical beast. Her visage had made me oblivious to the fact that she is a King-Tier Magical Beast!' Coyle Alstreim inwardly gulped.

Nadia's womanly charm and her frailty had managed to bewitch him! 

He no longer thought or cared about his face and gave her the cultivator's greeting with a slight bow and a clasp of his hands, "Coyle Alstreim."

Nadia blinked. Her eyes fluttered while the hearts of men endured a quake!

"Nadia..." She simply spoke before she looked around in a curious manner, watching the multitude of people gazing at her in interest.

This was the first time she felt thousands of gazes of awe being cast at her, and it improved her mentality and mood.

After a while, her sharp gaze returned to Coyle Alstreim.

"You should surrender while you can during the battle." 

"I'll keep that warning in mind." Coyle Alstreim possessed an indifferent expression.

It seemed that he ideally admitted that Nadia's power would be greater than his, and no longer thought of winning but battling out till his power ends up dry.

Nadia took a step forward as her golden pupils gleamed.
