Chapter 304 The Rebellious Doppelganger

Agatha wanted allies to help, but in the end, very few allies came to her aid.

The strongest Livlu was challenged by Dinesa, and as soon as they clashed, Livlu sensed something was wrong.

The greatsword in front of her, which hadn't unleashed much demonic energy, was far too powerful. No, compared to the greatswords she knew, it was incredibly strong, almost beyond compare.

Duff tried to help her from a distance, but every time he tried to make a move, an attack crackling with lightning would strike.

The White Curtain's remote support was even more disgusting; some Awakened Ones wanted to behead them, but some of them were intercepted by Fisna.

The other group of awakened individuals managed to reach Bai Mu, but they underestimated Bai Mu's combat strength.

The weaker ones couldn't even withstand a single attack from the White Curtain; the heavy weapon crates directly shattered the Awakeners' claws and smashed their heads to pieces.

Even those Awakened individuals with tough bodies who withstood the weapon crates' attacks couldn't withstand the powerful electric current they released.

Lucyella's side was wreaking havoc, with the Abyss's combat power suppressing most of the Awakened.

If Octavia hadn't been holding Luciela back, she could have killed most of the Awakened.

While fighting Teresa, Livlu glanced at the situation on Bai Mu's side and was slightly surprised to see a 'demon' appear beside Bai Mu at some point.

Although you could tell from the expression that the demonic being was angry and unwilling, it was doing something dangerous.

A large area of ​​shadow enveloped the battlefield.

This shadow had no effect on the people on the battlefield, but whenever an Awakened One died, a dark mass would gather around it.

Then the shadowy figure will be swallowed up by the box next to the white curtain.

Livlu didn't know what it was, but being captured by that demon would definitely not end well.

“It’s not good to get distracted,” Teresa’s voice rang in Livlu’s ear.

Duff's angry roar rang out: "Stay away from her!!"

Enraged, Duff charged forward recklessly, but halfway there, his body was pierced by a bolt of lightning.

It wasn't that he didn't want to dodge or defend, but when he did, he was interfered with by Galatea's demonic aura synchronization.

Even a momentary disturbance can be fatal.

"Duff!" Livlu's expression twisted. Ignoring the pain from her severed tentacles, countless sharp spikes sprouted from the ground, attempting to force Teresa back.

But Denise had anticipated all of these attacks.

To others, all the attacks seemed like they were deliberately avoiding Denise.

However, in order to avoid such an attack, the extent to which Denise unleashed her demonic energy had already affected her appearance.

Livlu's attack speed is extremely fast, and her split tentacles can attack from any angle, greatly increasing the difficulty of her sensing demonic energy.

Moreover, Livlu is almost immune to vertical attacks; her body can split vertically at will, but horizontal attacks are effective.

However, due to Livru's physical structure, it is difficult to injure her if you are not fast enough.

“You…” Livlu stared at Denise in astonishment. The new tentacles had just been generated when Denise’s greatsword severed them with incredible speed.

Livlu was forced to change her body shape to create distance between herself and Teresa, but her body was already covered in horizontal wounds.

She looked worriedly towards Duff; Bai Mu's bullet had pierced his body, but it hadn't killed him.

Livlu did not give up on the rescue, but just as she was about to do so, the temperature in the environment plummeted.

She looked on in surprise at the battle unfolding on Agatha's side.

Agatha's enormous body has been completely frozen.

The frozen ice resembled an iceberg, and as the iceberg appeared, thick snowflakes began to fall from the sky.

The ice spread along the ground, and after it spread to a certain extent, the battlefield was enclosed by a wall of ice, thus sealing it off.

White Curtain looked rather unwell; Esdeath hadn't spared him a single ounce of power.

Luciela's consumption was secondary; some of the Awakened Ones she killed became her food, and through hunting, Luciela's consumption actually decreased.

The main consumption comes from Esdeath's side.

During her battles, she recklessly unleashes ice imbued with power, which scatters across the battlefield and is collected by her at the appropriate time.

She instantly broke through her power limit by accumulating power, the battlefield blockade was completed, and the white curtain was also slightly weakened by her absorption.

The mage class is a meta, but having to bear the mana cost yourself is another matter entirely.

After completing the battlefield blockade, Esdeath kicked the ice beneath her feet, shattering Agatha's frozen body into pieces, leaving only her human form.

In this state, Agatha is essentially stripped of most of her fighting power.

Although they are still stronger than some Awakened Ones, they no longer pose a threat to Esdeath.

“You’re a monster too.” Agatha said painfully after Esdeath found an opportunity to pierce her body with her sword.

During her battle with Esdeath, she also managed to injure her. However, after Esdeath was injured, the blood that flowed out quickly evaporated, and the wound disappeared not long afterward.

The recovery ability was even more exaggerated than that of the Awakened Ones, especially Esdeath's move to freeze the battlefield, which caught Agatha completely off guard.

Before the most important parts of their bodies could react, they were frozen solid, along with the awakened ones who were helping them.

“You will become like that too.” Esdeath increased her power output, and the ice sword that pierced Agatha changed shape, with ice spikes blooming from her body.

Death... Agatha was unwilling, but in her final moments she had no choice but to accept this outcome.

But to her surprise, she found that she didn't seem to have actually died.

A shadow enveloped her, and although she was unable to move while enveloped, she could still see what was happening in the outside world through the blurry shadow.

Livru, as an Abyss Being, was in a passive position. Her opponent was distracted by another Awakened Being, and Fisna, who was originally fighting beside White Curtain, also joined the battle there.

The enemy no longer needs to 'protect' the white curtain; too many awakened beings have died in the battle.

Galadriel made the fewest moves, yet her impact on the battle was significant.

The interference of demonic energy synchronization with awakened beings is fatal, and Galadriel is currently targeting Octavia.

The awakened one, whose main body possessed high mobility, was now in a passive position, as Galadriel's demonic energy synchronization affected her mobility.

Lahuana made contact with the other party.

Octavia saw that her opponent was a one-eyed greatsword user and thought that she should quickly finish him off so that she could better restrain Luciela and take the opportunity to escape the battlefield.

But once the fight started, they realized that the other person's eyes weren't actually that important.

Even using a rope attached to the arm to attack outside the opponent's line of sight won't work.

It was as if Lafayette had eyes in the back of her head, rendering all her attacks ineffective.

The number of Awakened Ones around Luciela is dwindling, and this battle... is completely one-sided.

Octavia felt a pang of regret; she shouldn't have gotten involved in this, but it was too late to think about it now.

"Can we discuss this properly?"

“…Go ahead and talk to him.” Lafayette’s attack slowed down for a moment before returning to its original intensity.

She cut the rope that was being swung at her with a single sword stroke.

These ropes can be either soft or hard; after all, they are part of the awakened person's body and eyes, and can be dangerous if not handled properly.

Octavia was about to say something when her foot suddenly slipped.

The ice on the ground didn't affect her much, but Galadriel's demonic aura synchronization was disgusting.

In that split second, she braced her human form against the ground to prevent herself from falling, but at the cost of having her other arm severed by Lahuana.

Octavia showed a slight look of pain. Just as she adjusted her body, she noticed that Lafayette's eyes were not still locked on her.

Octavia's eyes widened, and she turned her head slightly to look back. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a sinister face, and two huge hands pressed her down.

Even more deadly was the large number of sharp teeth on those hands, which rapidly gnawed at her body.

Before she could struggle, a hand pulled her torso off the horse.

The excruciating pain of being torn apart from flesh and blood severely impacted Octavia's consciousness.

"...What are you now?" Octavia couldn't help but ask Luciela as her mangled body was still being devoured.

"You'll see when you're dead. You're quite a good mount." Luciela flung the heavily injured Octavia toward the white curtain.

She didn't really want Bai Mu to ride on her all the time; sometimes it was fine for her to ride Bai Mu instead.

Octavia was still somewhat confused after being thrown towards the white curtain, but she was too weak to move at this point.

Lucyella bit off her other arm as well.

"Hey, I have to say you're quite pretty."

Octavia, who was lying on the ground, heard Bai Mu's voice. She looked at Bai Mu intently, and she also had many things she was curious about regarding this man.

But... there's no chance to ask anymore, is there?
"Thank you for the compliment."

"Hmm." Bai Mu slammed the weapon case down.

"...You bastard, my true form won't let you get away with this!" Luxenbra warned White Curtain as he stuffed the two collected souls into the weapon box.

After the white curtain repeatedly killed his projections and collected enough fragments of his spirit, the original demon that was summoned again was no longer rigid.

But this fragment of the original demon's spirit seems to have developed thoughts it shouldn't have.

He wanted to break free from the control of the original body and become completely independent.

It can only be described as a demonic feature, but White Curtain has no interest in the ideas generated by the mental fragments of Luxembla.

Cooperating with this thing is like asking a tiger for its skin, and besides, Bai Mu has no intention of cooperating with him.

"If I kill your physical body and extract your soul, what will you do?"

"..." Luxembra showed a look of resistance, but did not stop answering: "I will return to my original body... You should cut him into small pieces for recycling!"

Big fish eat little fish. He has independence now, but if he encounters a larger fragment of his mind, he will become nourishment.

He didn't want that kind of ending.

But Bai Mu didn't care, and even ignored his seduction, only making him work to collect the souls of those monsters.

He was happy that Bai Mu wanted to continue targeting his original body; once the original body was gone, he was the original body again. But he couldn't be happy when Bai Mu wanted to control his original body's soul...
