An enormous amount of light consumed my entire body, burning through it and reducing my HP severely! It felt like utter agony, as if I was burning in pure hell! Was I naturally weak to Light Element? I had received its attacks before from the Queen of Elves, but Avarice lacked them so it wasn't so hard, even though he was able to utilize fire rather well. Fucking hell!
"Judgement Sword! DIE!"Pereza laughed, utilizing all the Mana from Luminous and generating five more of those gigantic swords while holding me tightly into the floor with Luminous enormous draconic legs and tail. A bombardment of enormous explosive attacks reached me, as I was engulfed in pure light.
BOOOM!
BOOOM!
BOOOM!
BOOOM!
BOOOM!
"Hahahaha! I beat you! I finally beat you, bug!"Ding!
[The Level of [Light Resistance: Lv2] has increased]
[The Level of [Light Resistance: Lv3] has increased]
"Phew, that was a good way to level up my Light Resistance, seriously I almost didn't made it…" I sighed, looking at my own body which was almost completely destroyed.
"H-Huh?! What the… How?!" Asked Pereza, suddenly realizing something was off.
Well, yes, everything was off. I wasn't going to tell her that I just used my Divine Authority of the Divine Virtue of Humility to generate a barrier around me that decreases damage from Light-aligned elements and all of that… of course not.
"Why would I even tell you?!" I roared, pushing forward. I looked into my HP, I was down 20%, I barely survived that but it was good enough to beat her. Now that she had exhausted all of her MP, she wasn't going to come out with strange attacks anymore.
Luminous body moved quickly reacting to my sudden leap. Pereza seemed completely afraid of me, as if she couldn't truly discern what I truly was. This worked well for me. I continued to follow her around while launching my explosive spikes infused with Chaotic Flames, which exploded constantly over her body, gradually weakening Luminous' body in the process but without actually killing him.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"U-Uunggh…!"
I noticed that Pereza was constantly trying to conjure magic, she took a while to realize that no matter how much she ran in circles while stalling for time, there wasn't going to be any more MP for her! I had already used at full my MP Drain on her, and each hit that she allowed me to land on Luminous allowed me to drain more of his MP, it never went past 5%, so there wasn't any strong enough spell she could use to get the upper hand.
Now the only thing she had was a powerful body, but that was it! Even skills require MP and Vitality to be used to their full potential, she was just constantly using Tail Whip, without realizing that even the body of a god can get exhausted, Luminous body wasn't properly reacting to her anymore as she desired.
She moved in circles constantly, as I chased her around using my fast-moving insectoid legs that I also launched at her like projectiles constantly. I also unleashed more spikes, and some magic, but anything that didn't had Chaos element merged was useless, Luminous had total Magic Resistance and Element Resistance within his dragon scales, fireballs would never damage him.
Nonetheless, Fiere and Elfina were helping as well, they joined the fight some seconds ago, as Elfina used the power of Black and White to unleash long-ranged slashing attacks with the spears by infusing mana into them. Fiere in the other case fired several arrows at Pereza and also fireballs, of course, they did not damage to Luminous body, who was using its hands to protect the fleshy body of Pereza, but it was distracting and putting Pereza in a sticky situation.
When Pereza finally stopped moving as she realized she was cornered, she decided to use Luminous as a bargaining chip once more.
"I-If you don't want your precious god to die, then you'll let me escape!" She roared. "If you dare touch me and kill me… he'll die with me!"
"Tch…" Elfina gritted her teeth. "What should we do, Kireina?" She asked to me as she seemed afraid of taking a decision.
"If it is to free him from your parasitism, I am sure that Luminous, an honorable god, would prefer to die that live his entire life enslaved to you!" Said Fiere bravely, pointing her arrow at Pereza's squid-like body sticking over Luminous' head. However, I noticed doubt in her face, she was doubting a lot, gritting her teeth, she couldn't do it.
However, I wasn't afraid like the two, I ignored Elfina's question as I moved near Pereza, Aquamarine had almost fully recovered as well at this point, and was sitting over my body like a beautiful pendant, looking rather strangely extravagant over my cocoon body.
"Don't worry, I had already thought about that." I said with a smile, although she couldn't really see it. Pereza grew desperate, she was too selfish to just kill herself to kill Luminous, so she roared loudly and used Luminous enormous authority and body to rush straight towards me, attempting to use the tail to swipe me away and then run upstairs at full speed.
But I didn't let her.
"Aquamarine, do it!"
I used [Icicle Spike] and [Chaotic Beam] in conjunction with Aquamarine. As I had done it before, it was possible to infuse and channel the power of Skills within the body of Ego Equipment to enhance their power. For one that could manifest into pure water as an element, Aquamarine was even more unique! In a second, he turned into a mass of miasmic water that then began to spread a cold aura, freezing into chaotic ice and capturing the entire body of Luminous.
"Chaotic Ice Cage!"
CLASH!
"AAAGGH…! M-My body… I am freezing! …Eh? You're not killing me?"
"Indeed, I've already realized the best way to free Luminous, capturing you both in a freezing cage and then… Taking out your soul, Pereza." I said with a malicious tone of voice. I extended a phantasmal claw out of my Phantasmal and Divine Aura, and pierced through Pereza's squid-like body, grasping her soul and then… pulling it out!
"GRRYYYAAAAAEEEGGGH…! S-STOP! IT HURTS! IT HURTSSSS…!"
She resisted a lot, screaming in agony, but it was futile!
This is the end!
CRASH!
