Chereads / Monsters Or Delusions / Chapter 46 - An Endless Battle

Chapter 46 - An Endless Battle

Luna jumped when several small-sized monsters attacked her together. They were like dwarfs that had a very rough and sharp skin texture.  They could extend their arms several meters forward to injure the enemy.

"The dwarven clans have come back to life," Luna muttered amid her evasion.

The blow of their hands stretched and almost tore Luna until finally, Luna dodged nimbly in a gentle motion.  They probably belonged to the category of intermediate monsters, which had not very strong attack power.  It's just that there were so many of them, and they always attacked the enemy in a gang.

Luna narrowed her eyes. Her shining white irises were now very alert. She raised her hand beside her face to prepare to strike back.  There were swarms of dwarf monsters around her, blocking her movement and trying to kill Luna. She was able to see their hungry faces.

In one breath that was quite light, Luna finally made a move forward.  "Take this!"  Luna shouted.  Luna pushed her hand forward, then bent her wrist down, as if a bone had suddenly broken.  Then she pulled water from the ground and compacted it by forming a clenched fist.

The jets of water that emerged from the ground were now shaped like the tips of swords and spears, which were sharp and very strong.  Luna's eyes flashed again.  After locking her target she flung her hand while moving her sword-shaped solid water to attack and immobilize the dwarf monsters in front of her.

The pygmy monsters charged in together, some of them had dodged by ducking, or perhaps dodging nimbly.  They ran forward, sometimes tripping over the ground which was always moving due to the energy of the earth monsters that were fighting in the portal.

"Run!  Let's run!  Don't get hit by that water gun!"  shouted one of the dwarf monsters.

Several of the dwarf monsters helped each other to avoid Luna's dense water attack.  They could now reach Luna's position and almost hit Luna together if they weren't blocked by a wall of water that suddenly appeared and protected Luna's body.

The dwarf monster's body hit the wall, they groaned.  "Beautiful food that sucks.  The water wall sucks.  Tenos doesn't like it!  Tenos doesn't like it!"  They rose like toddlers who fell when they first learned to walk.  Then they hit Luna's wall without success.

While Luna was still focused on moving her hands, to direct the dense water that was able to split the swarms of dwarf monsters that looked like swarms of ants.  Luna's water sword that was once pointed and slender now widened and became flat.  Along with the movement of Luna's expanding hand, the water sword had formed a weapon that expanded so that it could hit the pygmy monsters like crashing waves.

"They must be destroyed immediately, otherwise I will be hindered from helping the others to defend the protective wall," Luna muttered.

Several dwarf monsters managed to jump over Luna's weapon.  Then Luna moved her hand again, turning her solid water weapon into a jagged ball that swirled in all directions to kill and crush nearly half of the dwarf monsters.

The screams and cries of the monsters rang out, blood gushed out of their bodies along with the corpses lying on the ground, and then drowned in the ground with nothing left.  Luna knew that the bodies of the submerged monsters might be resurrected.  So Luna immediately lifted the water from the ground again, as long as the position of the dwarf monsters were standing.

The water gushed out very strongly, lifting the corpses of the pygmy monsters.  Luna gathered them, rolled them up, and crushed them in the whirlpool she had formed.

With that whirlpool, she also almost killed all the dwarf monsters until finally, the ground beneath her feet swayed.  And soon the ground rose, pushing Luna's body into the sky and almost knocking her down.

Luna's water ball shattered, the corpses as well as the few surviving dwarf monsters bounced off and fell on the ground.  The protective wall she had built for herself was a bit wobbly.  Luna bent down, feet on the ground, and took water from below to lock her feet so they wouldn't fall off and fall.

Luna narrowed her eyes, and she had a very correct premonition.  "The strongest earth monster within the portal.  Where is it located?"  As soon as Luna finished her words, the ground that had lifted her and soared her body in the sky was now suddenly disappeared.  Or the ground sank again, leaving Luna floating and almost falling from a very high height.

However, Luna quickly spread her arms, her feather sash stretched out and held her bodyweight like wings.  Luna, who was almost about to get a landing point, now received another attack in the form of earth throws that attacked her from various directions.

When the ground almost hit Luna, they floated and then merged like two iron doors glued together by a magnetic attraction.  Now they had formed a prison for Luna, a prison of hard soil.

Luna landed inside that earthen prison. She was sure that she was still in the air, but a second later her body tilted and bounced downwards, along with the prison that still locked her up.

Her body collapsed and hit the prison, as the landing hit her hard.  The prison kept moving, down, and was swallowed up in the ground.  Inside the ground, Luna felt the water element around her.  But when she tried to pull it off, she always failed.

"An antidote to the elements?  Which monster can do this?  It shouldn't be the earth monsters that are confining me, because they rarely have this kind of power."  Luna felt the prison around her, dryness stinging her skin.  As she retreated and tried to awaken his divine energy, the prison suddenly moved closer, as if shrinking and wanting to crush her body.

Luna remained concentrated, drawing energy from above the sky to destroy the prison that had almost broken her body.  However, the dense energy of the monsters that shrouded the sky seemed to be blocking her so she couldn't draw much energy.  Finally, Luna gasped, she almost squeezed.  The tip of her elbow that was trying to hold up the earthen prison ended up getting more and more pressure, bleeding, and failing to heal itself.

Luna screamed, her face hardened, her body glowing so bright with the enormous energy she gave off.  Now Luna's hand was paralyzed, she failed to be able to withstand the prison.  When her body was about to be crushed in it someone came to pound it until it was destroyed.

BOOM!  A shard of dirt or maybe dust had hit Luna, making Luna's long white dress flutter beautifully.  Inside the ground, Luna protected her face from chunks of earth that seemed to stick out and crumble due to a very powerful earthquake.

Luna's savior had come, and she was Nery.  Nery came with her water dragon demon. She jumped and somersaulted on the blue dragon's tail. Or the white dragon's tail that had a blue glow.

"Almost die?"  asked Nery giggling.  Then she retreated by skating on her Demon's tail, aiming her weapon in the form of a gauss gun, which could appear when the energy from her surroundings was absorbed strong enough.  Nery shot the gauss gun and detonated an enormous earth monster that was hiding by curling up in the ground.

The explosion shook the ground, making it feel like a terrible earthquake, a boom filled the air.  All the monsters and soldiers on the ground had fallen on their stomachs from failing to balance their footing.  Xyros had been limping on the ground, and Folcar who had just stepped on was now slumped down miserably.

Folcar grimaced in annoyance.  He wiped the dust that filled his glowing red face.  Before long he got up and attacked the monsters that were about to rise, continuing this endless battle.

Nery had now risen to the surface, leaving Luna who had appeared with a ball of water surrounding her.  Luna's elbow had managed to heal itself. She was ready to fight when she found another soil monster trying to attack her.

Luna dodged, with a backward movement like being dragged by the wind.  Her white hair fluttered gently, but her face was already starting to look tired.  Luna clenched her fists, she took a deep breath when she saw the bulge of earth suddenly attack her again.
