Chapter 36 - Snake Woman

Silhouettes of light shone from all over the place. Irina parried every attack with her shining sword, the rock split in half and she kept jumping all over the place.

Slashes!!

The impact of the high-powered sword slashes was focused on several sides. Clashing with the sharp hooves of the huge monster overhead caused several sparks to spread out in all directions.

Just as the Chimera's attack hit Irina, the ground Irina was standing on shattered and the pebbles flew into the air making the white light on Irina's sword shine brightly.

Light illuminates the darkness.

Irina then slashed at the monster's body, slash after slash splashing fresh blood into the air and then fading like dew.

"This is my first time fighting a monster in a legend from a goddess religion scripture. I thought it would be an uphill battle, but it doesn't look like it. "

Irina didn't understand what was actually happening, somehow the monsters in the legends weren't as strong as imagined.

The monster's movements were too legible even though it was strong enough to withstand its attacks so far.

Slow movement with big feet and sharp claws.

Irina then raised the sword into the air, a small light began to emerge from Irina's sword, floated into the air small grains of light then turned into birds flying around Irina's current position.

It flaps its wings then spins.

[Skill Activate]

After a while the bird of light fused with Irina's sword causing Irina's sword to shine very brightly.

"Holy Bird, I must use it this time. "

A memory of the past, a sacred power that was blessed. The sword of light that shone brightly from the bird that flew into the air.

The chimera then averted its gaze to avoid the light entering its snake-like eyes.

Time seemed to stop for a moment, then Irina shot out like a bullet fired with high pressure.

The powerful horizontal slash is capable of slicing through any thick steel.

When a monster's sword and hooves collide, the force struck by the sword is stronger than the power of the monster above it.

Sparks began to disperse, a shockwave warping the air around it like water droplets concentrated from the impact of swords and claws.

The Chimera's legs were now slightly raised in the air, then as the Chimera's feet returned to the ground a large head flew into the air. The blood splashed then fell to the ground.

"Darling, as you said this Monster is not a problem. "

Irina then looked back, there was Kyle holding a sword with a silver lining, approaching the heads of their Chimeras who seemed to be trying to breathe.

Piercing the head, fresh blood seemed to explode into the air as Kyle's sword plunged into it.

It was an extraordinary sight in Irina's eyes. A hero with monster blood drenched all over, Irina's pupils couldn't keep up with how a moment like this would be remembered forever.

Kyle then headed towards Irina.

It must be a hug, Irina felt it would be some kind of warm hug. It didn't matter if the smell of monster blood littered Kyle's path, if it was Kyle, the scent of roses that a prince brought would definitely be smelled by Irina.

Then after he took her hand, Kyle said.

"Irina, don't stand there. "

"Ara—? "

Irina looks confused.

Kyle then pulled Irina from her standing position. Hugging Irina's shoulder and twisting it, she didn't know what her fiancé was really thinking but then it was all answered when a strange sound started to sound.

It was the rumbling air of a very loud engine wheel. Right under the feet of the two of them, a circular motif with three distinct sides rotated in opposite directions.

"Tch, dammit!!" Kyle said that.

"Why? Why Darling?" Irina asked.

"That damn hero might just manage to beat two mini-bosses. But how did that happen? "

Irina didn't understand anything Kyle said, it sounded very complicated and mysterious. It was as if there was a secret that Kyle was hiding from Irina.

Irina then looked towards the large gate behind the monster corpse. A large circle carving with three separate parts, now merged into one circle.

A little smoke then dispersed.

From there the big door opened revealing a huge snake monster with a woman's head. The woman's hands, chest and face were seen in chains by something.

"That must be the dungeon boss," Kyle said.

Due to the small echo that the two of them had exchanged, the chains that bound the monster cracked.

The pupils of the eyes began to open, and the face of the snake woman came into view.

Slowly, his expression began to change. If Irina or Kyle got close to it, they would probably see the same snake eyes as the Chimera that just died.

The snake woman, then moved her hands like someone who had just woken up from a long sleep. The chain then shattered due to the slight movement of the arm which looked very weak.

The snake lady then looked at Kyle and Irina, she then opened her mouth with a very deep voice.

"Ahh… Human— after 200 years.. To the immortals of the sect.. I can see, this world our nation will take back. "

The sound is low and ear rattling. The woman then moved her tail like a snake that wanted to eat.

Instantly, as calm as the wind then reached Irina.

The woman then grabbed Irina's hair then lifted it, her snake tongue sticking out then licking Irina's face. Leaves some drool and such when the snake's tongue touches the skin on the face.

Meanwhile, the female snake's long tail began to coil around Kyle like a prey about to be preyed upon.

"Oh… This pretty face, looks tired."

"Let me go.. "

Irina then felt pain around her long white hair. It felt burnt to the skin. Struggling to try to break free but the stamina that has been owned has now run out.

Even though his hand looked quite hard, it had no power at all in the face of the serpent monster.

"Darling," Irina said in a low voice.

Left hand holding hair and right hand trying to reach Kyle, Irina looked like she was about to cry, teardrops stuck to her cheeks.

"Darling…"

Then the serpent monster heard that. The monster is now smiling with an expression that looks stiff. A pale beautiful woman's face and long black hair.

The woman then glanced at Kyle.

"I knew the prophecy would come.. A band of soldiers from heaven would hunt our nation like animals, but I won't give it away. "

The woman is now smiling broadly. A smile like a crescent moon that almost touched both ears, the woman then said with a very wide mouth and frightening eyes.

"I need an army. However, for a Chimera serpent race like me, the perfect army would be my children... I'm lucky the god of chastisement has created me as a half-woman, so breeding with humans is possible. "

The air seemed to stop...

No sound and no light.

The silence was terrifying and could possibly make anyone tremble in fear.

Irina then grabbed a small knife from her pocket and then cut her white hair so that it was short all the way to her neck.

The beautiful girl with short white hair and bangs that covered her eyes would fascinate anyone, she now fell to the ground in a position to attack.

His mind was a mess, with confusion in his sharp eyes.

Irina would fight back, even though she knew it would be useless.

Before Irina fought back, Kyle's scream reached her ears.

"Irina!!! Take some potions near Lily, then fight this monster back. Don't mind me now, just get out of here quickly and get some potions for you to drink. "
