I became a vampire princess and then a dragon girl?

§92 Sudden Attack

brush--

A slightly unstable space crack opened in front of Eve, and she quickly pulled Istina out.

Since she had just torn apart most of the causal world, the direct connection from cause to effect was severely weakened, so the magic of teleportation became a little unstable.

Istina's teleportation just now was

"Are you okay?"

With one hand around Istina's delicate body and the other hand continuing to draw defensive magic, Eve asked with concern.

"Yeah, nothing."

"That's good. Tina, come help me build up my defense, and I'll take care of the demons. Is that okay?"

"Ah, um... Mr. Brave, can I come over to the Demon God?"

"Eh?"

After hearing what Istina said, Eve hesitated for a moment, but after weighing the pros and cons, she nodded.

"Well...okay, but don't be so stubborn."

"Don't worry, brave man!"

After giving Eve a confident smile, Istina began to manipulate her magic power to form a magic circle in front of her with red electric currents constantly jumping on it.

But this is not the end of her magic, on the contrary it is just the beginning.

After the magic circle appeared, Istina took a deep breath and wrapped some magic power without annihilation properties around her fingertips. She gently stroked her palm and poured the flowing blood into the center of the magic circle.

At this time, Istina has completely recovered her former status as the God of Destruction, so her blood is now the real blood of the God of Destruction. Even in the mythological era, it is the top mythological material, which can greatly increase the power of the destructive magic she uses.

Right now, the Demon God is unable to perceive the situation on their side very well due to the torrent of magic caused by his own magic, so this period is the best time to counterattack.

However, it is not easy to create a magic that can overwhelm the demon's terrifying firepower in a short period of time, so Istina decisively used her own blood to amplify it.

In the magic circle, Istina's blood seemed to be boiling, with tiny bubbles constantly emerging along with tiny explosions. The magic circle, which was already flashing with lightning, continued to overflow with annihilation red lightning after the blood entered, forcing Eve to dodge a little.

"call--"

Taking a deep breath, Istina slowly compressed the originally huge magic circle into a size that could be held in her palm. She then aimed it in the direction of the demon.

"Final Sound"

The next moment, the battlefield, which was originally filled with various explosions, suddenly became quiet, as if all sounds had disappeared from here.

Countless red thunders entangled into a thick and dazzling lightning column, which collided heavily with the magical torrent emitted by the demon god, and pressed it back upstream.

"Well done, Tina~"

Eve, who was standing by, stopped drawing the defensive magic without hesitation and instead planned to draw the Black Prison Magic Cannon beside her to assist Istina.

But before she could finish her hand movements, Eve's expression suddenly changed, and she turned her fingers into claws and reached towards Istina.

"'Vanity Palm'"

As Eve moved, a large hand formed by magic appeared beside Istina and pulled her to Eve's side.

Almost at the same time that Istina was pulled away, dozens of blades formed by black mud suddenly emerged from the empty space.

It seems that if Eve had been half a step late, Istina would have been pierced by those blades.

"Oh, you hid quickly enough."

Then the figure of the devil appeared from the space and smiled sneerfully at Istina beside Eve.

However, Eve noticed that the demon now had a wound wrapped in red lightning and was slowly healing. It was obviously the scar left by Istina's attack just now.

It seems that Istina's previous surprise attack was quite effective.

"what……!"

Just as she was about to say something to draw the demon's hatred back to herself, Eve suddenly leaned over while holding Istina, barely avoiding the sharp blade that was heading straight for her head, and then stepped on the ground to avoid the subsequent downward poke.

Looking at the direction where the demon god was before, that figure had turned into a bubble and disappeared at some point.

"Tsk."

Although she avoided the two attacks of the demon, Eve's expression was a little ugly at this time.

The reason was that the demon's sudden attack just now was really strange. The first time the demon attacked Istina, it could be considered that the magic burst interfered with her perception, but when the demon appeared for the second time, her attention was completely focused on the demon, and all kinds of magic were ready to be used. As a result, the opponent still made a disappearing backstab in front of her, and she relied on the intuition that was a bit like the sixth sense to dodge it.

This is obviously not right. After all, her perception is not just for show.

Therefore, the biggest possibility is that the devil has once again used some new means to provide himself with blessings.

As expected of a demon god, his troublesome abilities come one after another.

"Tina, cover me."

She relied on her intuition to avoid the demon's pursuit several times. During this period, Eve drew several permanent defensive spells on Istina's body to ensure that Istina would have enough time to react when the demon attacked from behind. Then Eve rushed towards the demon with an empty blade in her hand.

It is not her character to always passively take a beating, and if she wants to find out the current ability of the demon god, a head-on confrontation is inevitable.

As for the actual feeling after the collision, it can be summed up in one word - fast.

At this moment, all the actions of the demon god seemed to be fast-forwarded. Often, you would only see the action of swinging the sword, and the next moment, the attack would come like a storm.

And as soon as one move was over, the next wave of attack arrived, leaving Eve no time to breathe.

What's even more disgusting is that the Demon God is still in a state of both offense and defense at this time. Eve once tried to exchange injuries with the Demon God, but in the end only she was injured. The Demon God actually defended himself at the same time after injuring her. He was really shameless.

Right now, Eve was relying entirely on the combined strength of herself, Arcana, and Ilvia to withstand the demon's attack, but she had no chance of counterattack at all.

However, Eve's beating was not in vain, because she had already noticed some clues during the confrontation with the demon.

There is a sense of time magic on the demon god, but the scope of his influence is not the world, but himself.

Eve is still guessing about the specific method, but it ultimately requires time.

§93 No solution?

The World Barrier is located in an area close to the infinite void. There should be no visitors coming here, but now a battle that will determine the fate of the world is breaking out here.

The sound of fists clashing and the explosion of magic continued to erupt in the quiet void, stirring up waves of air.

In the center of the battle group, Eve and the other two were engaged in a fierce battle with the demon.

After realizing that the demon was using time magic to achieve this super-speed attack, Eve began to think about the principle behind it.

Did the demon speed up his own time to make his speed faster than hers?

Although they are very similar, some parts of them don't make sense.

Take the previous magic as an example. If the Demon God accelerated his own time to increase his reaction speed, it would be impossible to explain how his magic could reach its maximum power in an instant.

It's not instant, but Eve can do it too. It's no problem for her to fire hundreds of Black Hell Magic Cannons with just a wave of her fingers.

The demon god completely violated the common sense of magic and directly skipped the stage of increasing the power of magic.

Just like a sluice gate, if you want to open it completely, no matter how fast you move, there will be a stage where the water flow increases.

But now the Demon God's magic completely skipped this growth process, and even when He attacked, He used full power without reducing it.

In contrast, the disappearance of the demon god's magic was quite abrupt.

You might be struggling to resist with full defense one second, and the next second the magic disappears without a trace.

However, after a fight, Eve noticed something strange, that is, the demon now seemed unable to cancel his magic.

Even though she had avoided the attack, the demon would still continue to release the magic at the same place, as if he didn't care at all even if the shot was a miss.

Well... although people at their level have no pressure on endurance, it's still weird to do this.

Therefore, Eve is more inclined to believe that the demon is subjectively unable to give up casting spells.

Maybe this is the price of his current super fast attack speed?

Hmm? Opportunity!

While thinking about what means the Demon God used to strengthen himself, Eve's hands did not slow down at all. She kept adapting to the Demon God's offensive at this time, and finally she got a chance to counterattack.

"Eve!/Master!"

As the holy sword in Ilvia's hand and the air blade in Arcana's hand slashed through the air with some foresight, shattering the magic just released by the demon, and then tripped the demon's hands, the two weapon elves looked in the direction of Eve at the same time.

"Know!"

As purple-black flames spurted out from the black edge of the empty blade, Eve held the empty blade and prepared to pierce the chest of the demon god.

But at this moment an accident happened.

The demon god, who was originally restrained by the two weapon elves, suddenly broke free from the restraints with his hands as if pulling out a frame, and punched the side of the empty blade, avoiding the fate of being directly pierced. Then he withdrew and distanced himself from Eve and the others and started the magic bombardment again.

"Tsk, this is a bit troublesome..."

Eve's expression was a little ugly after the unsuccessful attack, not because of the missed attack, but because she figured out what trick the Demon God used to achieve this super speed - the Demon God changed the timing of His movements.

Let's take the process of releasing magic as an example. If it takes one unit of time to draw the magic, two units of magic to reach full power, the peak lasts for three units, and it weakens until one unit disappears, then the current demon has reduced the proportion of other parts and redistributed them to the peak part.

Therefore, when the Demon God casts magic now, he will reach his peak immediately and disappear quickly.

Originally, it would take her quite some time to discover this, but the demon god had used this technique in close combat in order to avoid her previous surprise attack, so she was able to see the flaw.

The demon was eager to distance himself from them because his hands were in a state of being unable to move.

After all, the time it takes for the demon to break free from its restraints will not disappear out of thin air, it will just be slightly delayed.

But this is where Eve's headache comes from. Even though she has seen through the devil's tricks, she can't do anything about him.

Unlike the previous magic such as Future Declaration and Causal Web that would affect her, this time the Demon God was completely adding bonuses to himself, and she could not remove this bonus.

In other words, even if she tried her best to temporarily remove the effect of the magic, it would only take a few minutes for the demon to get it back. After a round of consumption, she would definitely suffer a heavy loss.

As a result, it seems that all she can do is to rely on her numbers to engage in a righteous gang fight?

And it can't be a long-range magic bombardment, otherwise the demon will get the full magic bonus without any disadvantages. What they have to do is to force the demon to fight with them in close combat, and then find a way to create an opportunity for the demon to avoid the attack by adjusting the time, and then take advantage of the aftereffect to give the demon a fierce blow.

Hmm... and judging from the experience just now, in order to force the demon to reveal its weakness, she needs to join forces with two weapon elves to fight together, so the job of finishing off the demon will have to be handed over to Istina.

Well, let’s do it!

If not, we'll talk about it later!

After deciding on the tactics in her mind, Eve sent her thoughts to Istina and told her the entire situation.

"Hmm... So, the hero will make the demon god show a weakness, and then I will take advantage of the gap when he can't cast spells to attack?"

"That's right, Tina. Remember to use some magic with a wider coverage area. After all, it's still uncertain where the demon will retreat to."

"Alright, leave it to me, brave man."

After ending her contact with Eve and casting a few concealing spells on herself to prevent the demon from noticing her movements in advance, Istina began to accumulate magic in front of her, waiting for the demon to reveal a flaw so that she could pursue him.

At this moment, the feeling that Istina had always been a little transparent unexpectedly came into play.

"Huh—Okay, now it's up to us. Are you ready?"

As Eve spoke, she looked at the two weapon elves beside her.

"Ah."

Ilvia still looked clueless and nodded imperceptibly.

"Of course~"

Arcana, who was holding an empty blade, had a faint smile on his face, as if he had already secured victory.

Honestly, Eve was a little curious about the source of Arcana's confidence. As the master, she was clearly taking things one step at a time...

"Okay! Then cheer up and give it your all!"
