Chapter 167 - Erubetie

[Erubetie's side]

The chimera stood at the other side of the room, facing the stoic Erubetie, and said with a cruel smile.

Amphisbaena: Now, let's continue from Undine's Spring. I'll cut you to pieces with this super vibration claw.

Her machine-like body gave off a loud whirring noise, filling the tower with sound.

Erubetie: ...Do you think it will go that easily…?

Amphisbaena: Hehe, it will be simple. You don't know about the pain because you never felt it from me.

Erubetie: It doesn't matter, I will beat you anyway.

Amphisbaena: You're a weakling who can't even touch me!

Erubetie stood on guard and start her attack with this…

Erubetie: ...How about this?

Her slimy body crashed against Amphisbaena's body, it caused a bit of damage, but the latter immediately activated her vibrations at an incredible rate, damaging Erubetie.

Amphisbaena: Ahaha, what was that? Did you forget that I can vibrate my entire body as much as I want? Is it too difficult for a simple Smile to figure it out? You can't touch me!

Erubetie didn't made any false move and stood silent.

Erubetie: …..

Amphisbaena: ...It seems like you understand. Did you go stupid in your desperation? This high-frequency claw will destroy your cells!

Then her vibrating claw cuts into Erubetie's body, she was able to avoid a fatal damage, but the smaller part fell down and evaporated, meanwhile the main body regenerated again, and glared at Amphisbaena.

She raised an arm and cried out.

Erubetie: Come, my tsunami of slime!

A raging tsunami of slime slammed into Amphisbaena, but this time her body vibrated in time, and the slime didn't caused any damage to her while it destroyed the slime.

Amphisbaena: A slime is weak against this…

Vibrating her own armor at an incredible rate, the waves of pressure radiated out from her, weakening the link between Erubetie's cells.

Erubetie looked like she was gritting her teeth and threw a punch at the poor excuse of a vibrator, having lost a bit of her reason. But the vibrating armor still damaged her instead of Amphisbaena.

Erubetie: Arrghhh….

Amphisbaena: An impact at the speed of sound is more painful than any type of weapon!

She concentrated all of her vibrations to a single point, blasting a wave at Erubetie at the speed of sound.

Erubetie quickly cloned herself, but her clone was hit and immediately destroyed from the wave, without a chance to even move.

Amphisbaena: Vanish!

Then she expanded an electromagnetic field around her, microwaving everything nearby, Erubetie dodged again by backing away, and when Amphisbaena stopped using that skill, she said confidently.

Erubetie: It's about time…

Amphisbaena smirked and said in an amused tone.

Amphisbaena: Oh, time for what? Did the fool finally realize that she's about to die?

Erubetie just silently continued to fight. If her estimates are right, it's almost time.

Amphisbaena created another sonic wave at Erubetie, she tried to dodge but she got slashed in two parts, much to her shock.

Amphisbaena: Hahahaha! You are finally dead!

Then she watched the two parts of Erubetie's body melt and then evaporate.

?: …

Suddenly, a big quantity of slime wrapped around Amphisbaena, bounding her.

Amphisbaena: W-What?! You are still alive?!

Erubetie: I created a clone when you were distracted with the first attack and left her to fight you while I turned into a puddle, so you won't notice it.

However, Amphisbaena's surprise turned into incredulity.

Amphisbaena: ...What are you doing? You're covering me with your body? Have you lost your mind?

Amphisbaena's armor vibrated again at an high frequency, damaging Erubetie.

Erubetie: Guh…!

But despite the vibrations, she continued to cover Amphisbaena's body.

Amphisbaena: Are you suicidal? What are you trying to do with this?!

Erubetie: ...My final attack. I create a nuclear fusion reaction inside my body, and obliterate everything.

While she talked, her temperature reached really high levels, meanwhile Amphisbaena got shocked and started to have a small tinge of fear.

Amphisbaena: Are you crazy?! G… Get off me!

She continued to vibrate her armor, however, the rate at which it vibrated slowed down.

Amphisbaena: N… Not enough power… Is it because I've used it too much? ...W… Was this on purpose!?

Erubetie: That intense vibration all over your body… And your unusual quick retreat in Undine's Spring… I realized that you can't fight for a long duration. Both for your body's costs for repairs and for energy…

Right now, the deuterium and tritium inside Erubetie's body began to condense…

Amphisbaena: R… Release me! You're going to destroy yourself along with me?! No… You're just faking it out, so you would make me surrender and attack me in surprise, right?! You're faking it, so just release me already!

Erubetie: No matter what you'll say, it's useless… You'll disappear here, along with my life.

The fusion inside Erubetie's body began, at last. While Amphisbaena wasn't having any of it.

Amphisbaena: Get off, get off, get off! S…. Stoooop!!

The nuclear reaction kicks off, creating a devastating explosion…

When the smokescreen was gone, the room was destroyed, even if the device with the CD was untouched, and Amphisbaena's pieces stood in the center of the explosion.

Amphisbaena: You coward, Erubetie...

Erubetie formed herself beside Amphisbaena, and continued her last sentence.

Amphisbaena: You called it a suicidal explosion… But you're uninjured…

Erubetie: No, I am not uninjured. Some of the lives inside my body have died…

Amphisbaena: An error… I couldn't…

She was unable to finish when her system stopped working. Then, Erubetie looked at the device and murmured.

Erubetie: … The device is safe. I focused the explosion in wards.

Her slime was still covering Amphisbaena as she exploded. With that barrier in place, the explosion didn't damage the equipment the CD is inserted into.

Erubetie: I'm ready now… I wonder if everyone else is alright…?

Prepared to act, Erubetie waited for Tamamo's signal.
