Monster Integration (Web Novel)
chapter-4035

Immediately, a shock appeared in her eyes as she sensed the restriction appearing across her body.

Her eyes widened, and she looked at me as she stopped her attack.

"What did you do?" she asked as the lines across her flared. Trying to burn the strings. Immediately, giving the greatest pressure, they had ever felt.

She is directing the energy toward the strings.

The strings are absorbing the energy and releasing it immediately, but not fast enough, that more and more gathered.

I watched with bated breath and tried to recover from the limit as fast as I could.

Buzz Buzz!

I didn't hesitate to activate the few formations that I usually wouldn't.

They are powerful, and they work quickly, but they are not without some serious side effects. Currently, I do not have time to think about them.

I need to have a life to think about them. If I survive; I could take my sweet time in recovering from it.

I looked at her and saw her crazily pouring energy into my strings. They had finally become visible and seeing them, her eyes couldn't help but widen.

Strings cover every part of it. So, thickly, that it looked like she was wearing some kind of suit.

I had needed only half a minute. If I had that, I would have been more confident than I am right now.

"How did you do it?" she asked in shock.

"It's my move," I replied, not answering her question, which made her angry.

"Its powerful, but it won't be able to stop me!" she said and lines across her blazed, pouring more power into the strings, while she moved at me.

Yes, she could move, and quite fast at that.

She is the fastest person ever to move with strings binding her. Usually, people more powerful than me, couldn't even twitch.

She could move so fast, despite the string behind her as the testament to her strength.

She is at the limit of Sky Sovereign and sees how her power increasing. She might break that limit; I have to finish her before that happens.

She might not be able to bear the power of the Prime for more than a second before it vaporizes her, but even the second would be more than enough for her to finish me off.

Looking at her expressions, she is aware of that as well.

She understands how dangerous her chances of survival have become. To survive, she will need to kill me as soon as possible as I would need to kill her.

She appeared in front of me and attacked.

I also swung my sword and this time, not in defense, but on the counter.

CLANNNG!

Our weapons clashed and since the first, she had started using the power of the crystal, she shook.

Seeing that, I grinned and attacked her.

Yes, I am attacking. Defending isn't enough to kill her; I will have to kill her with my sword. CLANNNG!

She countered, but I launched another attack, and she moved to defend against it.

She defended and tried to attack me, but I moved first. I pulled my sword fast and attacked her, before attacking again.

I cast a glance at my strings as I attacked her.

They have turned silvery grey like her energy. I have given their command to clones to deal with the energy the strings are absorbing. It is up to them, how they deal with it.

The only thing they have to do is stop her power from increasing and, if possible, restrict it further.

CLANNNG CLANNNG CLANNNG!

I attacked her again and again, but she was good.

Each of my attacks is getting defended, not a single one of them is getting past her defenses. While it's happening, the lines across her body flared. I could feel the panic appearing in her eyes as the energy began to release from her very skill, not lines and orifices anymore.

"I give up, let me retreat and we will end this here," she said as she defended my attack.

"No," I replied.

I should have accepted her offer, but this woman had nefarious intentions toward me.

She didn't want to kill me or absorb me. I cannot let such a person leave, who could become a threat to me in the future.

"Then we will die together!" she said with madness in her eyes and immediately, the grey crystal burned like a sun.

Immediately, the lines across her body flared and expanded and spread, and within a second, her whole body had turned silvery grey.

She looked like a demon, with such power that it could vaporize me.

'The strings will be able to hold her for three seconds at most,' informed my clones.

'Keep it ready.' I said and poured my blood energy into the strings without holding anything

back.

CLANNNG CLANNNG CLANNNG!

She attacked, and her attacks were faster and stronger than before. Even my strings couldn't contain her with massive power coming out of her.

I defended against her attacks while waiting for my clones to act.

I am pouring massive blood energy into the strings. For one chance, it will give me a fraction

of a second and I will have to deal with her. If I fail, then I will die.

Her attacks were fast, but I defended against each and every one of them.

I didn't let even a single one come at me. Given how powerful attacks are, there is no way, I would be able to survive that.

A second passed and then another. I am the last second; after it passed. The energy will overpower my strings and it will be the end of me.

'Now!' said my clones.

I didn't hesitate and moved without wasting any second, disputing her attack coming at me.

Which, if I didn't stop, would decapitate me.

My sword moved toward her, while her saber moved toward me.

Hers was faster and it reached my neck.

There was barely an inch of distance between me and my neck when suddenly the smile on her

silvery grey face froze like the rest of her body as it turned blood red.

Relief flooded my heart, but I didn't let it stop me and moved my sword faster.

I only have a fraction of a second. She will gain her movement back and finish me off.

Hun!

Finally, my sword reached her chest, and, to my surprise, there was resistance.

I didn't hesitate and powered enchantment with blood energy and pushed the blade with

everything I had.

Puch!

I heard the wet sound as the blade pierced through her chest and reached her heart.

I didn't hesitate and sent a blast powerful energy into it destroying her heart.

Killing her.
