An Extra’s POV - Chapter 737

Chapter 737: A Devil’s Game [Pt 2]
Most people that knew the White Duo considered Shai’ya to be the weakest.

However, that was far from the case.

She had two S-Tier Skills that were mainly for destruction and absolute annihilation, making her perfectly adept in combat.

Yes, Kat’erin’s abilities were much rarer, and was also a lot more versatile—especially [Dragon Voice]—but even she knew that when it came to a fight, there were very few Generals that could stand up to her, and she wasn’t among them.

Her two Skills were too powerful to be properly countered—especially if they were used simultaneously.

[Absolute Blood Control] allowed Shai’ya to freely control the blood of her target, even at very long distances, and to also manipulate blood freely. She could even manipulate her own blood, applying it to several uses; including the improvement of her already high physical abilities.

The true importance of this Skill was the ‘Blood Bank’ aspect it had, which allowed Shai’ya to save up the blood of her victims for temporary or permanent storage.

That meant, as long as she kept storing the crimson nectar of her victims… she would never run out of blood to control.

Then… there was [Absolute Overdrive]. This was, to put it simply, a Buff Skill.

It improved all the abilities that Shai’ya had—both her Stats and her Skills—making the activation much faster and their effects much stronger.

Applying these two Skills at once made it so that Shai’ya could use her incredibly powerful and corrosive blood at incredibly fast speeds, with even greater power than normal.

Most Dragons wouldn’t stand a chance—even if they had defensive Skills to back them up.

And so, it was clear what Ater’s fate would be.

“I’LL FUCKING RUIN YOU!”

Shai’ya didn’t want to waste any time, or even hold back, when it came to this opponent.

She simply released all the blood she had saved up, creating an incredibly large sphere above her—enough to cast a shadow over the land around them for a few kilometers.

She didn’t want to just drop such a large supply of blood, though.

“ARMOR!” She yelled.

Instantly, all of the blood condensed to form a metallic-looking substance that descended on her in swift fashion.

In the blink of an eye, the blood that was large enough to cast a shadow for kilometers was now donned by Shai’ya as a full-body armor. The entire armor was crimson, but it had a silvery glow to it, making it seem like authentic armor.

The earth around her shattered the moment she put it on—most definitely due to the weight.

However, none of that bothered her since she could fly.

On her hand was a sword, also made from the concentrated blood. In fact, half of all the blood was used to create it, making it incredibly powerful.

Her armor served as a power boost—thanks to its corrosive effect and the powerful pressure it packed—but also a tough defensive shell which would protect her from any form of harm.

Then, there was the effect of the second Skill—[Absolute Overdrive]—which made her even more powerful.

The space around her was already beginning to warp, contorting violently thanks to the sheer magnitude of her strength.

In this form… she was invincible.

“DIEEEEEE!!!”

~BOOOOOOOOOOM!!!~

The moment she darted forward—aiming right for Ater—a massive sonic boom echoed across the area, sending vibrations to the surrounding lands.

She was much faster than the eyes could process, and for every distance she covered, even more power was applied to her already incredible pressure. Bursts of flaming energy danced around her as she charged forward.

In no time at all, she had closed the distance between her and Ater, about to pierce him right in the heart.

Then—

~SQUELCH!~

Shai’ya crashed to the ground in a massive explosion, creating an even more destructive explosion around her. However, this wasn’t because she caught her prey.

Instead…

~DRIP~

~DRIP~

~DRIP~

“… E-eh…?” Her eyes widened as soon as she regained her bearing, feeling hot liquid drip from her dominant right arm—or, to put it more accurately, the gaping hole that was left there.

Her right arm was completely gone.

Right as she realized this, she heard a light thud in front of her.

It was her arm.

Her arm had been flung towards her by the man whose heart was still beating. He looked at her with a relaxed smile, his devilish grin burning deep into her mind.

Right there and then, she witnessed Kat’erin taking advantage of his distraction to attack him, but a swift backhand jab on her face sent her flying away from him.

It seemed nearly effortless on his part.

“Do you understand now? This is no illusion or trickery…” His voice oozed disgustingly in her ears as he confidently walked towards her.

“I’m just much stronger than you are.”

All of this was a mere farce to him—child’s play to while away time until he could really have genuine and interesting conflict.

“G-GRRRRRR….”

Shai’ya could not accept that!

“SHUT UP!” She yelled, grabbing her blade from the arm on the floor, attempting to stab him with it.

Once again, though—

~SQUELCH!~

Her left arm was sliced off, and she witnessed how he used his hand as a blade to do the job.

As her blood splashed in the air, she witnessed his wild grin.

“DIEEEEE!!!” All her blood—from both her right and left arm—were commanded and sent towards him in the form of several needles.

However, right before they reached him, they stopped completely.

“Blood manipulation of this level is useless against me.” He said with a dismissive tone, almost as if he couldn’t be bothered.

Shai’ya broke into a cold sweat at this point.

She could not use her trump card against him, and even when she tried controlling his blood, nothing responded to her. It was at this point that she realized it.

‘H-he’s not a living being! He can’t be!’

Whatever this existence was… he couldn’t exist in this world.

He couldn’t be allowed to!
