Knights of the Digital World

Chapter 29, LadyDevimon VS. Etemon (Part 1)

The ape-like beast felt that everything was going wrong lately.

Seeing the resentful look in the little guys' eyes, yet their helpless expressions, truly made him feel refreshed.

Unfortunately, the big bean beast was a good guy, keeping a close eye on him, which deprived him of someone to tease and play with.

Originally, Mamemon would occasionally go out. However, ever since Etemon lost control and severely injured several Digimon, ultimately causing them to regress, Mamemon has never gone out again.

It's not that Etemon is afraid of Mamemamon. In terms of combat power, Etemon, which evolved after countless battles during its Targetmon era, can easily defeat Mamemamon.

But Mamemon's network of connections is terrifying. He has a large number of Mamemon and their subspecies Digimon friends, all of whom are at least Ultimate level. Not to mention that Mamemon also has Bancho-Mamemon, a top-tier Ultimate level Digimon, behind him.

It's one thing to bully the Digimon under BigDotmon's command. But if Etemon dares to lay a hand on BigDotmon, it will definitely face retaliation from BigDotmon's friends.

Even if you kill or injure the Big Bean Beast, a group of people will probably come to "have a heart-to-heart talk" with the Ape Beast.

Furthermore, BigDotmon has a gentle nature and enjoys taking care of weaker Digimon. These Digimon often visit BigDotmon after they grow up.

This is also a force that cannot be ignored.

Yesterday, the ape-beast sensed a power no less than its own. Out of caution, the ape-beast sent out its henchmen while it observed from the shadows.

If the other party makes a move, he can try to find out what the other party's background is.

The subordinate Gazhi Beasts can also deplete some of the opponent's power, making him more likely to win when he attacks.

Whether the other party saw through this or not, they simply left.

That was decisive.

However, during the time they were secretly observing, the ape-beast had already recognized the human.

The attacking LadyDevimon evolved from a little dogmon he had bullied years ago.

He still remembers them; they were two little dog sisters. The younger sister was simple-minded and didn't say much. The older sister, however, had a stubborn personality.

Every time the ape-beast tries to steal food, even if she is no match for it, she will fight it with all her might, and she will not give up even if she is covered in wounds.

Her unwilling expression and eyes left a deep impression on the ape-beast, and also made the ape-beast feel unprecedented joy.

At that time, the Targetmon, which was only at the adult stage, still held a sense of awe towards the Beanmon. Although it would steal things, it was still not very willing to kill.

That's why the little dog was able to survive.

Later, in order to experience the pleasure of bullying others, the ape-mon began his life of bullying men and women.

I also take every opportunity to visit the little dog's side, so I can experience that special kind of joy.

As a result, it seemed that the puppy-like beast couldn't stand his harassment anymore and ran away with its sister. This left the monkey-like beast with a great deal of regret, which it still remembers to this day.

So he recognized LadyDevimon very quickly after seeing her.

However, recognizing it made the ape-beast feel inexplicably annoyed.

The little dog beast that he used to bully and slaughter has actually evolved into its complete form, and judging by its strength, it doesn't seem to be weaker than him?!

How could the ape-beast possibly accept this?!

However, Emeraldmon didn't dare to challenge LadyDevimon to a fight to vent its emotions.

He could sense LadyDevimon's power.

Even if we win, it will be a Pyrrhic victory.

If the BeanBeast gets a chance, wouldn't that cause trouble?

Apes wouldn't do something so foolish.

However, he needed to find a way to vent his frustration. So, early the next morning, Apemon gathered his Gachimon minions to listen to his concert.

This is also a major reason why he took the beastmen as his underlings.

When singing, you always need a few listeners to create the right atmosphere!

At least, the ape-mon was singing with increasing enthusiasm in front of its underlings. Looking at its listless followers, the ape-mon even managed a rare attempt to liven up the atmosphere:

"Show me your hands! Let's get this party started!"

The Gazhimon endured the apemon's awful singing, but had to pretend to be engrossed, raising their hands and cheering "Ooh ooh ooh," as if the apemon was singing wonderfully.

This pleased the ape-beast, who sang with increasing passion and seriousness, and also with increasingly... awful singing.

Just as the ape-beast was engrossed in its song, it suddenly sensed several forces, no less powerful than itself, approaching.

Without a second thought, the ape-beast squeezed its hand, creating a black sphere, and flung it towards the direction of the energy source.

"Who's over there?! A Dark Necrosphere!"

The Dark Necrosphere first pulverized the Gazhimon in the direction it was launched from, turning them back into Digi-Eggs. Then it shot directly towards the rapidly approaching energy streams.

The earth, plants, and creatures along the way were all pulverized by the Dark Necrosphere, which was extremely domineering.

This domineering necromancer orb was easily caught in the palm of a small hand wrapped in a black bodysuit, and with a simple squeeze, the necromancer orb was crushed.

"Ape Beast, you haven't forgotten me, have you? We have a lot to settle between us!"

Crushing the Dark Necromancer Orb, LadyDevimon chuckled, her voice filled with murderous intent.

She had already discussed this with Emu and Parad. In any case, she would fight Empyrean alone in this battle!

She wanted to say goodbye to that unbearable past!

The Gazhi Beasts, who were originally just spectators, were so frightened that they all fled for their lives.

They have no loyalty to the apes.

He only became a lackey because he didn't want to be bullied by the ape-like beast.

Even so, they had to endure the torture of the ape-beast's song, which was practically torture, and still had to praise it against their will.

Moreover, the ape-like beast didn't take them seriously.

Just before the Dark Necrosphere was launched, the Apemon could have warned the Gazhimon that were affected to escape.

But the ape did not do that.

It's because he simply doesn't care about the life or death of the Gazhi Beast.

Since that's the case, Jia Zhishou won't be so shameless as to stay and risk his life for this nominal elder brother.

Even if they are purged in the future, that's a matter for the future.

At least we're still alive now.

And the ape-monster really didn't care about Gazhimon's thoughts, letting them escape.

His eyes, hidden behind his sunglasses, scrutinized Emu and Parad, constantly darting around as he considered how to escape.

He must be out of his mind to think he can face three opponents who are about the same level as him. At this point, the best course of action would be to run away!

But at this point, running away is obviously not an option, as exposing your back would be even more dangerous. You need to stabilize the situation first, then look for an opportunity.

The ape-beast was plotting something, and its mouth didn't stop talking either, saying:

"I recognize you, of course I recognize you. Aren't you the little puppy beast from back then? What, you think you can act all high and mighty in front of me just because you've evolved? To be honest, you're not qualified!"

Chapter 30, LadyDevimon VS. Etemon (Part 2)

Enraged by Empyrean's words, LadyDevimon had no intention of saying another word to Empyrean. She spread her arms and released a barrage of dark energy resembling bats.

"Dark fluctuations!"

The monkeymon didn't expect LadyDevimon to be so irritable. Instead of responding to the trash talk, she attacked without hesitation, which caught the monkeymon off guard.

However, the battle-hardened ape beast was not so easily defeated.

Almost instinctively, the ape-beast rubbed his hands together, and a black energy ball appeared in his hand, which he then tossed out.

"Dark Necrosphere!"

The black energy sphere collided with the bat-shaped dark energy, crushing, devouring, and burning each other. They quickly neutralized each other.

After LadyDevimon released its dark energy, it raised its left hand, which transformed into a sharp spear. With a flash, it thrust it towards Empyrean.

"Dark Spear!"

The moment the ape-beast engaged in combat, it abandoned any thought of escape and fully entered battle mode.

The ape-mon knew that if it couldn't concentrate and dared to be distracted when facing an opponent as formidable as LadyDevimon, it was doomed to lose.

Running away is for survival, but if you lose your life in the process of running away, wouldn't that be putting the cart before the horse?

Therefore, even though it was still wary of Emu and Parad's existence, Etemon could only devote all its energy to the battle against LadyDevimon.

Facing LadyDevimon's thrusting spear, Etemon moved nimbly, twisting its body to avoid the spear's charge. Its two fists, gathering energy, rained down blows on LadyDevimon's face:

"Super punches flying everywhere!"

Every punch from the ape-beast was powerful and heavy; getting hit by even one of them was unpleasant.

LadyDevimon wasn't the kind of Digimon with strong defense, so it quickly stepped back to dodge Etemon's attack.

But LadyDevimon didn't just dodge.

As she retreated, LadyDevimon's spear transformed back into her left claw, and as it retracted, the sharp claw slashed at Etemon, infusing it with dark energy.

"Highly poisonous!"

The ape-beast paused abruptly, its expression contorting. Clearly, the energy within its body was being converted, causing damage.

LadyDevimon didn't miss this opportunity, rushing forward and slapping Apemon across the face several times:

"slap!"

These slaps carried a large amount of dark energy, causing far more damage than they appeared.

The ape-beast had just suppressed the damage caused by the poison when it was slapped several times, leaving it dizzy and staggering back a few steps.

"Whip while unconscious!"

The Ladymon, seizing the advantage, pulled out a whip from who-knows-where and lashed out at the Monkeymon.

"Monkey Kick!"

The ape-mon recovered quickly and regained its senses. It immediately leaped into the air, dodging LadyDevimon's whip, and kicked LadyDevimon in the stomach with its large, pink-glowing foot.

The monster let out a muffled groan, was kicked back several steps, and rubbed its stomach to catch its breath.
