Chapter 169 - 169 Ava’s struggle (2)



169 Ava’s struggle (2)

Shriek...

With a deafening roar, a blazing ball of fire hurtled towards the massive red creature. The tentacle let out a blood-curdling screech as the fireball made contact with its skin, causing it to blister and smoke. The creature recoiled in pain, its body twisting and contorting as it sought to escape the source of its torment.

Just as it managed to steady itself, another fiery projectile came hurtling towards it. With lightning-fast reflexes, the creature bolted to the side, dodging the attack by mere inches. It let out a guttural growl, its skin touched by fire turning purple.

But Ava was not done yet. Another fireball shot through the air, followed by another, and another. The creature was bombarded from all sides, each hit eliciting a pained howl. Despite its immense size and strength, it was no match for the relentless barrage of fire.

Ava was in her element, her body moving with grace and precision as she battled the massive red creature. Her spells were swift and merciless, each one striking its mark with deadly accuracy. It was clear that she was in complete control of the situation, and for a moment, it seemed as though she might emerge victorious with ease.

But Ava was well aware that time was not on her side. Her thoughts kept straying to Eli, who was locked in a desperate struggle against a mysterious figure draped in red. She could sense that Eli was struggling, her attacks not being able to wound the man with a red halo.

Ava knew that she had to end this battle as quickly as possible, before Eli was overwhelmed and defeated. She redoubled her efforts, each strike more powerful than the last as she sought to take down the red creature once and for all.

Unfortunately for Ava, her opponent proved to be far more formidable than she had anticipated. Despite her best efforts, the being seemed to shrug off the majority of the damage she inflicted upon it, its endurance and resilience truly remarkable. And worse still, the being was quick to counterattack, its strikes coming fast and furious as it sought to take Ava down.

In an effort to gain an advantage, Ava took to the sky, using her black wings to carry her aloft and away from the reach of her opponent. From her vantage point, she had a clear view of the battlefield below, and she could see that Eli was still holding her own against the stranger in red.

.....

But even as Ava kept her distance, she could sense that her opponent was closing in. Its tentacles seemed to possess some kind of flight or levitation ability. They were steadily reaching for her despite the fact that she was in the air.

Ava found herself in a desperate struggle as she sought to evade the red creature’s attacks while simultaneously raining down fireballs upon it. The battle had become a dizzying dance of motion, with Ava darting in and out between the flailing red limbs, her movements graceful and precise as she sought to avoid the creature’s deadly grasp.

The challenge of maneuvering in the air at high speeds while shooting fireballs was not a simple one. It required a delicate balance of speed, agility, and precision, and Ava was pushed to the limit as she sought to stay one step ahead of her opponent.

Ava was feeling the pressure mount with each passing moment as she fought against the red creature. She could feel the weight bearing down upon her wings, threatening to crush her and bring her down from the sky. But she refused to give in to tiredness.

With a fierce determination, Ava gritted her teeth and dodged another of the creature’s tentacles, her body moving with a fluid grace as she evaded its grasp. And even as she did so, she summoned another fireball.

Swish...

The fireball struck the creature’s limb, and Ava saw it turn an unsettling shade of purple as the fire began to spread on the skin. Using this opportunity she unleashed another barrage of fireballs, raining them down upon the creature and driving it back.

As Ava continued her relentless barrage of spells, the creature began to show weakness. Its entire body was now covered in a network of purple wounds, strange black liquid gushing forth from its skin in a never-ending stream. Ava could only guess that this was its blood, and the sight of it only served to further fuel her determination.

With renewed vigor, Ava picked up the pace, casting even more fireballs at the red creature. Each one struck its mark, leaving purple wounds onto the creature’s flesh and sapping its strength. Slowly but surely, the creature’s movements grew slower and slower, its tentacles falling from the sky one by one.

And then, finally, with a final roar of pain and frustration, the red creature succumbed to its injuries. Ava watched in awe as it fell to the ground, its massive bulk slamming into the earth with a thunderous crash. She hovered there for a moment, her heart pounding in her chest as she gazed upon the defeated form of her opponent.

Boom...

Ava’s head snapped to the side as she heard a loud explosion echo through the alley. Her heart raced as she watched Eli being pushed back by the stranger in the red garment. She knew that her friend was a skilled player, but now it seemed that even her impressive strength and agility were not enough to defeat this fearsome opponent.

The man’s eyes glinted a dangerous shade of red in the dim moonlight, and his twisted, manic smile only served to heighten Ava’s sense of dread. Despite the odds stacked against her, Eli was still fighting with all her might, her scythe flashing and glinting as she swung it with deadly precision.

But Ava could see that her friend was struggling, that the stranger’s relentless attacks were starting to take their toll. She knew that she had to act fast, that she had to lend her support before it was too late.

Ava summoned all her courage as she raised her hand and unleashed a blazing spear of lightning. She knew that the lightning spear wouldn’t cause any damage to the stranger, but she hoped that its speed would be enough to catch the man off guard and force him to halt his relentless attacks on Eli.

Zzinngg...

The spear shot towards the stranger like a streak of lightning, its bright, electric energy illuminating the dark alleyway. The man’s eyes widened as he felt something moving towards him, and quickly turned his attention towards Ava, catching the bolt with his healthy hand.

For a moment, the stranger looked confused, his eyes darting around the alleyway as if searching for an explanation. His eyes locked onto the strange purple laying some distance away and then, as he finally registered what had happened, a look of disbelief crossed his face, and he frowned.

It was clear that he had not expected Ava to be able to defeat the red tentacle so quickly, and he appeared to be struggling to come to terms with what had just occurred. His eyes were shadowed and his expression was guarded, as he took in the scene around him and tried to make sense of what had happened.

“?’?? ?????????????? ???...”

A strange, guttural sound escaped from the stranger’s lips as he suddenly raised his hands up to his halo and took it off his head. With a soft click, he broke it into two parts, his body trembling from the impact. Black blood flowed down from his slightly parted lips, and his eyes rolled back in his head, as if he were in pain.

For a moment, Ava watched in disbelief as the man convulsed, his body writhing as the black blood flowed freely from his lips. But then, with a sudden surge of energy, he stood tall, his eyes locking onto Ava’s with an intensity that made her heart race. The smile that had once been so terrifying was now gone, replaced by an emotionless face.

“...”

Ava and the stranger locked eyes, the air around them charged with tension. Meanwhile, Eli took a swig from a mana potion and joined them, her scythe at the ready. She was momentarily confused by the man’s clothes, which were now stained with black blood, and the disappearance of the red halo from his head. However, as she caught sight of the red sparks scattered at the man’s feet, she began to understand.

Rumble...

Suddenly, the ground beneath Ava’s feet began to shake, causing her to sway and take a step back. Her heart sank as she realized what was happening, and she prepared herself for the worst.

Boom...

With a deafening boom, another creature emerged from the ground, its tentacles reaching out hungrily towards Ava. She frowned, feeling frustration bubbling within her. The fight seemed to never end, and just when she thought she had caught a break, another monster appeared.

“How many monsters can he summon?!”
