(Einar's POV)
Boom*
An explosion could be seen from the chieftain's building when a figure flew from the dust and crashed outside the town.
"Arr.. damn… my jaw…" I shook my head after standing from debris and realized that my jaw was dislocated from her connected punch.
[So whose got broken jaw and is an arrogant bitch?]
"Not now Elaine…"
I knew that I had underestimated her greatly but except for a little dislocated jaw, I was fine.
Luckily, I was wearing a defensive jewel that broke out after taking the maximum damage and removing other effects of her punch.
[You are lucky that she was not aware of your defense mechanism or you would have been in great danger.]
"I know Paemon, I know…"
It was my reckless to underestimate her but I was not aware that she was so much good at hiding her presence or power.
She was the first elemental I was facing beside Vivian. I was quite certain of Vivian's strength but she was in a different league.
When I was healing my jaw and contemplating the situation, I saw the same beautiful woman walking from the dust.
She was now only wearing her strips like revealing outfit with a long flame skirt. She was also carrying two blades on each hand.
Blood was also flowing from the town and being absorbed by her.
It means that she killed all the people in the town whose blood she was observing.
"I didn't know that a mage is that capable of resisting my powerful attack." She smiled while walking up close.
"And I didn't know that a pretty lady like you will punch such a handsome person like me?" I also took my guard and start casting buffs and attack spells silently.
"Humph. A lecherous man like you should have died a long ago." Her expression darkened must be remembering when I was ogling her body.
"Wow, talk about biased feminism! I am sorry but you are the one showing your skin. Are you going to give a reason that it is your way of fighting?"
"…"
"What? Have I set foot on your tail, Chinese woman? Why don't you remove the rest of your clothing? In this way, I will be more distracted by your jiggling jugs. I am giving you a piece of good advice."
"…You shameless asshole!"
She roared and swung her glowing blades in a cross that launched two devastating arcs towards me.
"Oi, why are you in such a hurry to die, china girl?"
I dodged her attacks by flying on sideways. Her blows were so destructive that they created two 6 meters wide arcs on the ground.
"Elaine, examine her strength." I then told Elaine that was the spirit of my book to investigate her source of strength.
I am sensitive to mana and could sense it but she was the polar opposite of a fairy. She was an elemental vampire, a kind of undead that is opposite to a fairy-like me.
I can deal with anyone who has regular life-force but I was uncertain as to what extent her strength was being revealed.
Plus, she appeared to have more experience in fighting than anyone I have ever met.
I was quite confident in escaping but I didn't wanna leave this bloodsucker in my country. She will only become a headache if I don't deal with her here and now.
[Affirmative but it will take a little longer. She is efficient in hiding her true strength.]
"No shit Sherlock, I can see that but how long it will take?"
[5 minutes.]
"You mean 10 chapters like when Freeza tried to destroy planet Namek in five minutes but it took 10 episodes?"
[No, it's legitimate 5 minutes. Now stop filling word count and do actual fight.]
"Oi, don't attack the wall!"
I dodged another attack when I was in the middle of a talk.
Her attacks were more devastating than before and from her looks, I didn't think she was consuming much mana.
"You will surely die sooner or later. Why don't you give up already?" She said while calmly walking towards me.
"Aw~ now you breaking my heart speaking like 2nd rate villain~. Haven't you read wuxia and xianxia shit?"
I decided to use my talk no Jutsu for mean time to let Elaine examine her strength. From the drama she put, although she was strong, I thought that she was quite stupid.
[Says the person who got punched by the same stupid person]
I ignored Elaine.
"Wuxia and xianxia… shit? How dare you mock our sacred culture?" She fumed after hearing my mock and taking the bait.
Her mana surges like blood and the sky started to turn red. This is one of the capabilities of elementals who can change the atmosphere depending on mood. I also make the environment gloomy whenever I was sad.
"Wait, that really exists? I thought it would take more than a couple of more hundred years to born? Next thing is what, you have cultivated for hundreds of years and now you are an immortal or some kind of similar shit?"
"…"
"Oh. My. Sun Wukong!"
I sometimes seem to forget that I was living in a fantasy world where legends appeared to be true.
I have quite a good knowledge about china and its history but it was after the influence of the Mongols and where china gained independence from Japan and become the superpower that I knew. I also remember dynasties that appeared but they were also superficial.
"Hm, it seems like the rumor that you know the future knowledge is true." She smiled.
"…"
I was taken back.
It was true that I had future knowledge but the rumor was not like that. 'Another mage beside Merlin has clairvoyance' was the rumor. I was always mentioned in the shadow of Merlin so I was fine with that but she knew something other than what actually circulates.
I had to verify her source.
"Ho? Now that you get a glimpse of what is happening, why don't to obey and come with me?" And she immediately shattered the hype she created with those third-rate villain lines.
"Can you stop with those cliché lines? Answer me, who are you and what you want from me?" I decided to ask her a simple question because I couldn't handle her 3rd rate wuxia lines.
"Now that's a good question. Then allow me to reintroduce myself, I am known as Yu Mei-ren, Consort Yu of my dear Xiang Yu." She introduced herself.
I widened my eyes. I certainly remember her identity, not by her name but by the person she mentioned. Xiang Yu was a Chinese warlord who lived during the late Qin dynasty, who lived in 200 BC, from the age of gods!
If what she said was true then she was 'that' famous Consort Yu. I read about their love stories from legends but I never would have thought that this famous concubine would have become an immortal.
'No, she said she was 'known' as Yu Mei-ren, it means that she becomes an immortal before she becomes Consort Yu.'
History was a little messed up due to magic and different mythologies coexisting together.
"As for what my purpose is…" She opened her mouth again and grinned, "Is to take that book from you and go back to my precious Xian Yu. In short, it is your death."
My eyes flared and magic spells appeared on the book.
"Oh, I am fucking tired with your lines! Explosion!"
A big magic circle appeared above Yu. It was then her time so took her guard.
"When did you-"
"Skibidi bob mm dada!"
Booom*
