BXBX NOVEL Chapter 138 - Die Squashed Like A Bug!
-----
Amber glanced at Noah with scorn, anger, frustration, and fear! Such emotions fueled her mind with complete and insane wrath!
"YOU DAMN… MONSTER!" screamed Amber desperately, as she quickly activated dozens of Skills in a millisecond, her entire skin enhanced itself and gained momentary durability, alongside her dress which shaped itself as if it were made of jewels, with a giant jewel spear emerging at her right arm!
She even gained giant jewel wings! And a dozen boulders made of jewels appeared around her, firing themselves towards Noah instantaneously after being generated!
"Hm. Not bad…" thought Noah, as he decided to fight against her in her own game, and generating boulders made of elemental blood gems as well!
The giant boulders clashed against each other constantly, generating explosions of shattered magic jewels!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
However, Amber quickly realized that Noah\'s gemstones were… very similar to Emerald!
In fact, way too much!
It seemed that such skill had emerged because Noah converted Emerald\'s Ability Core into Skill Points, which fueled his Skill Tree with new Skill concepts, generating this Skill that was just the exact copy of Emerald, but the gems were also blood, which Noah could easily shape as he desired!
Blades, Axes, Spears, Lances, Naginata, Maces, Hammers, and more made of Elemental Blood Gems clashed against Amber\'s unrefined boulders of jewels, crushing, and shattering them into pieces!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
For a moment both Noah and Amber locked their eyes against each other, waiting for the opportunity to strike the other!
When the last dozen of gem weapons and boulders impacted and exploded, both figures flashed against each other, like two flashes of golden light and crimson light, the two began to clash and strike each other around the air, generating loud explosions and thundering noises!
SLASH! CLASH! BOOM!
This was the battle between two B-Rank Hunters! Amber\'s siblings, who were C-Rank Hunters were not even able to keep up with such speed and prowess, however, they were way too busy dealing with Noah\'s subordinates now!
Iris kept pursuing Ruby around playfully, using her long nails and covering them in nether flames, slashing through her burning jewel projectiles as Ruby felt despair quickly take ahold of her heart!
"Get away from me!" cried Ruby, unleashing all the jewels she could muster alongside fireballs and fire spears, rushing as a shower of flames towards Iris!
But Iris who had fought against behemoths such as Fire Wyrms did not even felt like such an attack was much…
Something within Iris\'s mind emerged…
"Compared to the savage and overwhelming strength of monsters, Hunters are… so weak,"
She quickly feels… bored.
"DIIEEEEE!"
Ruby cried as she unleashed all the flames and red jewel attacks she could muster, making them all fall over Iris in an instant!
BOOOM!
Ruby glanced at the explosion of flames and red jewels, which somehow still did not make the entire hall fall apart for some strange reason…
She tried to look for Ruby anywhere she could… but there was not even her charred corpse.
"So boring…. Is that all you could do?" asked Iris, startling Ruby as she quickly moved away with her Skills and generated a large barrier of red jewels!
"GET AWAY FROM MEEE!" cried Ruby, feeling more and more desperate as Iris just did not die!
Iris had simply evaded her dull "all-out attack" with utmost ease, and she was now slowly walking towards her as Ruby unleashed everything she could against her!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The projectiles of red jewels exploded one by one into giant explosions of flames, as Iris simply walked towards Ruby while destroying her attacks by the swipe of her claws.
At some point, new claws emerged out of her very phantom, which she materialized through Phantom Materialization and began to catch the projectiles sent at her, launching them back at Ruby!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"AGH! W-What?! You can\'t…!"
The projectiles she created were now being launched back at her, as Iris simply smiled.
CRASH!
The barrier of red jewels shattered into pieces with a big explosion, as Ruby was sent flying into the air!
"Why are you resisting so much? Embrace my husband\'s greatness and rejoice! Soon after dying, you shall be reborn to serve him for eternity!" laughed Iris, as Ruby felt completely emptied of Mana!
She tried to desperately grasp a mana potion out of her Interdimensional Storage Ring, but her hands were trembling in fear and Iris easily realized what she was trying to do.
"Hmm, maybe you don\'t need this hand anymore…" said Iris, using her claws to slice Ruby\'s hand away!
SLASH!
Ruby felt the sharp pain of her and being sliced, the muscle, tendrils, the blood vessels, and the bone all being cut perfectly in a single second!
Her teeth gritted so much that they began to shatter a bit, as her eyes began to cry in agonizing pain and her mouth released a pathetic pig-like scream.
"GRRRRYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAARRRHHGGGHH…!"
Iris felt surprised by the loud scream, rubbing her chin.
"Oh my, are you not used to pain, my dear? That was just a hand…" she said, as a Dhampir with super regeneration, Iris had already lost entire limbs or pieces of her body in battle against monsters inside dungeons, pain was something she had long become used to.
"P-PLEASE! DON\'T… DON\'T KILL ME! AGGH…! HHAH… SNIFF…"
Ruby began to cry even more pathetically, as Iris felt disgusted.
"Asking for mercy? Well too bad that in here there is no concept of mercy…" said Iris, stepping over Ruby with her long, black heels, and crushing her chest with it!
CRASH!
"NNANGGAAAGGHH…!"
"Such a feeble, little ant…! Denying my husband\'s greatness! You don\'t deserve anything more than the death of a bug!" she sighed, beginning to step on Ruby like a piece of trash, crushing her ribs, stomach, legs, arms, and chest, her lungs were torn apart, and her intestines began to fly into the air, Ruby was somehow still alive and screaming in agony with each step of Iris, filling her heels with blood and guts.
CRASH! CRASH! CRASH! CRASH!
"Nnnnggooogghhh…"
Ruby felt dizzy, death was soon to take her on as the agonizing pain of having her entire body crushed like a bug made her mind go insane…
"Hm? You are still alive? Such a resilient bug… Maybe I should ask my husband to rename you Cockroach later, fitting, right?" laughed Iris, as she raised her heel and crushed Ruby\'s entire head, bursting it into bloody pieces like a watermelon falling off a cliff!
CLASH!
Iris noticed that a large C-Rank Ability Core emerged above Ruby\'s corpse, a nice offering for her beloved husband.
The moment Ruby died was incredibly bitter and anticlimactic, as her siblings were all diving into battles for their own lives.
The sounds of her agonizing cries, the sound of her flesh being torn apart and crushed, of her bone-shattering… Sapphire, Agate, and Amber were not able to do anything to help her…
Sapphire, who was heavily damaged and burned had tried to jump towards Iris and shower her with his attacks but was stopped by a blast of black thunder, falling over his feet and making him instinctively jump away.
He glanced with fear at his adversary, another of Noah\'s companions which he nor his siblings had ever sensed emerging… her eyes were crimson red, and her hair was purple, alongside this, her skin was of an unhealthy pale white, almost like candle wax.
Her figure was tall and slender, and her hair reached a bit below her shoulders, she had a stoic and beautiful mature face…
Her eyes, which were crimson red, were now flashing with electricity and sparks of black lightning, and her entire body was covered in pieces of armor made of materialized black thunder.
She wielded a large, black bow, which exuded an aura just as eerie and aggressive as her…
Sapphire could immediately sense her enormous bloodthirst, and also realized her identity…
"You\'re Timassa…. Arthur\'s maid! How can a Half-Subhuman like you be this strong?! Nngh…!" groaned Sapphire, quickly generating several blades of blue-colored jewels covered on icy winds, firing them towards Timassa without waiting for her response!
"Half-Subhuman? I am more than that now. I have ascended thanks to the grace of my lord…" said Timassa, as she fired three arrows of black lightning with great precision while darting in midair, destroying Sapphire\'s attacks in an instant, as explosions of ice, jewels, and black thunder unleashed in the middle of the two!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"What kind of power… is that?!" asked Sapphire while being dumbfounded.
