My Girlfriends Are Hardcore Yanderes - Chapter 98

Chapter 98: Breaking the Norm 2
The battle between the two raged on, each attack aimed to kill. Sparks flew with every clash, illuminating the darkened sky.

Lucy’s battle dress now seemed to lose its strength. It was torn in several places, and her movements, though still fast, had started to slow.

Lyka, however, was still at her peak. Her magic only seemed to grow stronger with every attack.

She stood confidently. Her power was so destructive that she didn’t even need to move. Each tail was a weapon in itself, ready to strike at her command.

If not for Lucy’s skill and battle instinct, she would have been completely overwhelmed by the massive gap in power between them.

“You’re too weak. And you call yourself royalty?” Lyka giggled, covering her mouth with one of her tails.

Lucy’s face hardened with annoyance. The insult stung deeper than she cared to admit. Had she been at her full strength, she could have taken down her enemy in an instant.

“Is that all you can do? Act tough?” Lyka sneered, her voice dripping with contempt.

Seeing that Lucy had no intention of responding, the fox woman’s tails flicked. One by one, each tail fired a beam of blinding light.

Lucy’s eyes narrowed. She couldn’t afford to fly anymore, as the strain it put on her was too much.

Instead, she relied on her feet. She leaped to the side, narrowly avoiding the first attack as it crashed into the ground behind her, sending a shock wave through the earth. The force of the explosion made her stagger, but she quickly regained her balance.

Next attack shot at her from the left. She twisted in the air, barely dodging it as it passed just inches from her side, the heat singeing her exposed skin.

The third and fourth flames followed quickly, but she was already moving again, jumping to another spot in the rubble, her feet pushing off the ground.

But the cunning fox wasn’t done. She sent the fifth strike at Lucy just as she landed. This one was faster, more concentrated, and she barely managed to twist her body in time to avoid being hit directly.

The flame grazed her shoulder, and a sharp, painful burn ripped through her skin. She gritted her teeth, forcing herself not to cry out.

Unfortunately, the damage was too much. She lost her focus, and her battle dress, already torn from the relentless assault, was nearly gone, exposing her sexy underwear.

“Oh my, you really are bold. To think you wear such seductive attire. Did you use this to seduce him?” Lyka asked, her tone playful, as she tilted her head.

Lucy’s eyes blazed with anger. “So you’re doing all of this because you want to steal him from me?”

“Steal him from you?” Lyka raised an eyebrow, then burst into hysterical laughter. “Do you actually believe you’re better than me? Just because you cheated?

“At least he loves me,” Lucy shot back.

Lyka’s face turned serious, her expression darkening. “That doesn’t matter because you’ll die anyway… Any last words?”

“You better kill me,” Lucy growled through gritted teeth “Because if I live, I’ll hunt you down.”

Lyka chuckled darkly, her six glowing tails flicking behind her as she stepped forward, eyes gleaming with satisfaction.

“I will gladly do it” she said, her tone dripping with malice, “I’ll turn you to complete ash.” She paused, her smirk widening as a sinister thought crossed her mind.

“And speaking of ash,” she continued, her voice turning more cruel, “I’ll make sure to take care of Asher. He will forget you, like you never existed.”

Lucy’s eyes widened as her blood seethed with rage. Her hands trembled—not from fear, but from the sheer force of it

The air around her thickened, crackling with power as her emotions spiraled out of control, growing stronger with each passing second.

“You’re dead!” she lashed out, followed by blood erupting from her body, twisting into a storm of countless needles, each one sharp and lethal.

“Pathetic, you think your blood could withstand my power? I’ll burn you along with all of it,” Lyka scoffed.

“I don’t care if I burn to death!” Lucy growled, eyes blazing with conviction. “But if you think I’ll let you touch him without a fight… you’re dead wrong!”

A barrage of blood-formed needles surged forward like a living storm.

Lyka’s eyes narrowed in surprise, but she quickly shook it off. Her six tails glowed brighter, unleashing another attack that obliterated the blood needles in seconds.

‘I lost,’ Lucy admitted. She closed her eyes, bracing herself for the inevitable. In her last moment, the only thing that came to her mind was his face.

BOOOOOM!

The ground trembled with the impact, the explosion ripping through the air and burning everything in its path.

It was over—well, that was what Lyka hoped for—but when everything cleared up, Asher stood tall in front of Lucy.

Around him was a wind barrier he created to protect themselves. This one was even more concentrated and powerful than what Lucy had used before.

“I won’t let you hurt her anymore,” he declared, his voice cold and unforgiving.

This was the first time in his life he had felt anger, a fury so intense that even his hyperfocus state could barely contain it.

Lyka narrowed her eyes. She actually saw him running toward them, so she intentionally controlled her attack at the very last moment to avoid obliterating him completely.

Asher stood on high alert, painfully aware of the power gap between them. He hoped she would not take this fight seriously—maybe there was something in her twisted interest he could use to his advantage.

And when the opening came, he would strike, ending her life with a single, decisive blow.

But before he could act, another blast came hurtling toward them, cutting off his thoughts.

Without thinking, he grabbed Lucy and lifted her into his arms, dodging the incoming strikes.

BOOOOOM!

BOOOOOM!

BOOOOOM!

The wind roared around him, pushing him forward with a force that made every movement faster.

Unfortunately, Lyka kept firing, and has no intention of holding back.

Asher couldn’t shake the nagging feeling that he had misread the situation. ‘Did I assume wrong?’

The more he dodged, the quicker the attacks came, pushing him to his limits. The pressure mounted, but with it, his movements grew sharper. His body adjusted instinctively, survival driving him to use the wind with higher control to stay alive.

It reached a point where he managed to fire his own fire balls, but they were too weak due to lack of preparation and were effortlessly extinguished by her.

Desperately, he tried to find any sign of hesitation in her eyes, any hint opening that he could take advantaged of.

But when his gaze locked with hers, he saw nothing but a twisted, sadistic smile stretching across her face.

She was enjoying this, every moment of it.

‘That’s right,’ she thought, a dark thrill spreading through her. ‘I love seeing that face. Show me more anger. Show me more pain. If you break, I’ll just fix you up and do it again. As long as you don’t get completely destroyed, I can work with that.’
