Erii: A Journey Through the Heavens Begins with Frilian

Erii looked coldly at Modok, who was getting up in anger.

It was this ugly and evil monster that destroyed the uncle's happy and fulfilling home, turning the once bustling and peaceful village into a desolate and deserted place.

She wanted to protect something, just as she had once longed for someone to protect her.

Erii, who is not good at expressing herself, could not explain it clearly.

But one thing is absolutely clear: tear him apart and end the plague curse that wreaks havoc on the region!

There is no righteous Ultraman in this world, but there is a little monster like myself. So let the monster kill the monster!

Sensing the fervent fighting spirit and murderous intent of his own mind, the dragon blood rapidly boiled, pumping throughout his body at several times the speed of an ordinary person.

Erii trembled slightly with excitement, and a flush of heat rose on her face.

A series of crisp sounds rang out inside the body, and the bones were undergoing subtle changes. The joint density of the palms, elbows, ankles, knees, and spine increased, and grotesque protrusions appeared that had not yet pierced the flesh.

Fine lines appeared on her flawless white skin, outlining beautiful, faint scales that shimmered with a vibrant silvery-white hue in the reflection of light.

"If you're not a dwarf, how could an ordinary human have such power? What... are you?" Modoko's questioning voice stopped abruptly, filled with surprise and doubt.

Because Erii, who was facing away from Frilian and the others, suddenly had two golden glints in her eyes and her red hair danced wildly without wind.

He felt a chill run down his spine, as if he were being stared at by some ancient behemoth.

They are definitely not purely human!

Are there other races in this world that even the immortal demon race is unaware of?

The demon race's innate arrogance made Modoko unwilling to admit defeat, so he changed his target and charged towards Erii while unleashing magic.

boom--

Erii launched herself forward, weaving through dense interception like a missile.

Her heightened senses granted her exceptional reflexes, allowing her to narrowly escape magic rays time and again with a blank expression, leaving Philon and the others on the edge of their seats.

In the blink of an eye, Modoko's magic had all failed him, so he simply raised his forelimbs and stomped down on Erii with all his might.

puff!

A flash of blood.

Erii reached out with both hands and tore, separating the two cow legs from the bones along with the skin and flesh, causing Modoko to curse fiercely in pain.

hum!

Erii's hands gradually became ferocious and terrifying, with the tips of her ten fingers resembling eagle claws.

She swiftly slid and tackled along the ground, leaping up from behind Modoko. Her unarmored abdomen was already gaping open, blood gushing out, and her pungent internal organs spilled out all at once.

The key is that there wasn't a single drop of blood on the shrine maiden's clothes.

"You're asking for it! You're asking for it!"

Modoko flew into a rage, his mind consumed by fury and bestiality.

He recklessly unleashed his magic power, bombarding Erii with all sorts of destructive spells.

"With me here, go ahead and do your thing!"

Philon quickly approached the battlefield, his defensive magic forming shields in mid-air to protect Erii as much as possible.

puff~

As the Word of Judgment was activated, both arms were severed out of thin air, and all sorts of magic were forced to stop.

"Finally, some peace and quiet." Erii was annoyed by the flashy magic.

Modoko suddenly fell silent, and the arrogance in his eyes vanished abruptly.

He looked down at his bare shoulders and was shocked to find that his regenerative abilities were being hindered, as if some unseen force was hanging over his head like a guillotine.

The lingering aura of the invisible blade constantly cuts through the newly formed flesh!

"With that strike, you could have severed my head, or simply shredded me to pieces," Modok said, his voice tinged with despair.

At that moment, Erii stood on his back, silent.

"I was dead from the very beginning. You're just punishing me as revenge? Did I kill your friend?" Modoch continued, having just realized the vast difference between them in an instant.

"Why do you kill?" Erii asked, already having Frilian's standard answer in mind, but still wanting to ask.

Modoko turned around, staring at her with a deep gaze. "Why do humans keep livestock in captivity and then put them on the dinner table?"

There are many things that Erii doesn't understand and finds them very complicated.

All she knew was that the world was distant, beautiful, and precious, so shouldn't we cherish, treasure, and protect it?

"And why do you kill? Aren't the lives of demons and demons lives too? Little girl, we have different positions and different choices, but no matter what, I want to apologize to you." Modoko smiled sadly.

Erii was a little confused.

What is this guy babbling on about? What does it have to do with my question? Is this what they mean by "a dying man's words are good" in TV dramas?

"Ignore him. Demons don't have such complex emotions. He's just pretending to buy time. Be careful of a sneak attack," Frilian's insightful words rang out.

Modoko pouted helplessly and said resentfully, "The thing I hate most in my life is you elves."

Erii was too lazy to think about it anymore.

"I'd be happy if you died," she murmured innocently as she placed the knife against the back of Modoko's head. "My brother said happiness is the most important thing."

Upon hearing this childish and brutal death sentence, the life-loving Modco hurriedly said, "I..."

puff--

With a gentle force, the blade slides in from top to bottom.

The swirling power of the Word of Power shattered the core of life's heart, and Modoko's cracked features were filled with resentment.

Before the blood spurted out, Erii disdainfully jumped away, the signs of her mild dragonification disappearing, and the imposing coldness in her eyes vanished as well.

Philon leaned closer and carefully checked Erii for any wounds. Only after confirming that she had killed Erii without injury did he feel relieved.

"Thank you for your hard work." She handed Erii the water bottle.

Seeing that Erii didn't answer but was staring blankly, she poked her in confusion.

"Waaah, I'm fine." Erii's attention was completely drawn to the [Guide].

At this moment, a rushing river of blood suddenly appeared in her field of vision, flowing around her like a phantom.

The echoing dragon roars were the sound of waves of blood crashing against the shore.

Erii couldn't help but feel nervous and expectant. Although she had a judgment that other mixed-race people could only dream of, what little girl could resist the temptation of opening a lottery and a blind box?

Frilian and the others also ran over.

Once they were certain that Modok's body had completely disintegrated, they all breathed a sigh of relief, their gazes towards Erii no different from those of fanatical believers.

Only Frillie seemed slightly disappointed.

Parasitic magic is indeed despicable and vile, but it must be admitted that its practicality will attract countless people, especially the powerful and wealthy who crave immortality.

Even she was very curious about the theoretical formula and operating principle of this magic.

But thinking about it, it's better for magic that goes against the laws of nature to be lost forever.

"Am I seeing things?" Frilian turned to look at Erii.

She vaguely remembered noticing some unusual subtle changes in Erii from a distance, but there was nothing unusual about her now.

"Is she nervous? Could she be under a plague curse?" Frilian noticed Erii's clenched hands and reached out to touch Erii's forehead, becoming even more puzzled.

One of the symptoms of the plague curse is a rapid high fever, but Erii's body temperature is normal.

Little did they know, it was because Erii's emotions had been stirred up.
