Lavana launched an ice chain at the female twin but she nimbly dodged it, soon pointing her sceptre at Lavana with an irked expression on her face.
“Die, you bitch!” she spat.
“You can join your queen too,” Lavana smirked, launching several fireballs at her stunned opponent in quick succession. Her foe dodged all of them, clearly more nimble than the late queen. As for strength, that was a different matter. The female thought what she meant by her joining the queen. The queen was back at the palace enjoying the torture and screams of unlucky victims, right?
“What are you saying?” she couldn’t help asking after avoiding still yet another ice chain that was aimed at her.
“You’ll know when you no longer see the sun,” Phoenix’s mate replied. She had stopped launching attacks on the foe. The male twin had been bound by her ice chains and didn’t even bother joining the fray after freeing himself. Instead, he watched the two females battle with interest.
“You aren’t even a hybrid, huh? Three in one, that’s what you are?” the female twin asked as she used her sceptre to launch an attack on Lavana which she dodged.
Her brother had his arms folded. So what if she wasn’t even just an Olmpha? The fact that she’s been weakened means she’s just a paper tiger at the moment. Sooner or later, his sister will maim that Olmpha and bind her. Then all they had to do was wait for the master to take action regarding the tribrid.
He looked at the wolves in the hole that were struggling to get out to no avail and grinned, taking out another set of long silver needles, preparing to torment those wolves again.
Unanticipatedly, he felt someone tap his left shoulder and he turned around to see Lavana with eyes that clearly didn’t belong to a dragon this time, that of a siren. She held him by the neck and exerted pressure, “What were you trying to do?” she questioned, wearing an icy smile.
“None of your business,” he answered with a harrumph. He and his sister were death warriors, he wasn’t scared of death.
“It’s my business when you do things without asking for permission,” she spat, taking hold of his sceptre. The young man wore a smug face, knowing the backlash she would suffer, but he was astonished to see nothing happen to her.
Instead, she stopped choking him and pulled out the gemstone on his sceptre.
“Wha…” he felt great pain in his chest and started having difficulty maintaining his levitation.
“Give it back,” he said, as blood flowed from his mouth, his breathing laboured.
“Okay,” Lavana casually replied and unexpectedly snapped his sceptre in half. “I broke that of the old hag. You’re too weak,” she said as she placed the broken sceptre in his trembling outstretched hands.
She turned to face the other angered twin who’d successfully liberated herself from the chains that wrapped around her from neck to feet.
Seeing the state of her brother’s sceptre, she yelled, “How dare you? I’ll…” She couldn’t continue her words as a part of the broken sceptre had been embedded in her gut. Her eyes widened, just like her trembling brother who had fallen miserably into the very hole that the annoyed wolves were in.
Soon blood-curdling screams were heard as he cried out to his sister for aid but the latter couldn’t even maintain her stability in mid-air, much less helping him out.
Soon, his severed bloodied head and mutilated body were thrown out of the hole. Not long after, 5 men came out of the hole, stained in blood that they weren’t repulsed by.
“You…” the female twin had no strength even to yell her grievance. She had tried to pull the broken sceptre’s part from her stomach but instead, she felt a pressure that made it penetrate out of her body.
“You…” she whispered as she looked at her foe in disbelief.
“Join your brother,” Lavana launched an ice chain that wrapped around the female’s neck, tightening greatly, compelling the latter to gasp for air, while desperately trying to free herself, to no avail.
She closed her eyes and tried to take out the magic book from her spatial ring but her opponent didn’t let that happen as she spat out lightning at her hands, causing them to tremble seriously, as blood spewed from her mouth.
“K-Kill me,” she managed feebly to say in an almost inaudible voice. Death was freedom at this point. She had been too complacent and this tribrid, she viewed her as someone wimpy…
Lavana let cut off the connection with the ice chain and it vanished, causing the corpse to drop to the ground, close to her brother’s severed head.
Now that those two were dealt with….
She turned to see that Phoenix’s subordinates had long taken care of the nineteen and even another set of 20 dark wizards that had appeared. The five light wizards were actually watching her with interest.
She landed close to them and stared at them all, trying to preserve their faces in her memory so she could recognize them anywhere.
They all went on one knee unexpectedly, their sceptres on the ground as they bowed their heads, “Greetings, Luna!” they chorused. Evidently, they were aware of their lord’s hybrid identity.
Watching how she killed off those two, they had nodded their heads in admiration earlier. This was the sort of mistress they needed, not a whiny one that was weak and always needing rescue. The Moon Goddess must be really fond of their master. Just look at the mate given to him, a tribrid!
“Hey, um… hello…” Lavana stammered. She wasn’t used to this kind of situation, ” Please stand up,”
“Gratitude Luna,” they chorused again and then rose in sync, their sceptres in hand.
“You guys are Phoenix’s subordinates,” she stated the obvious.
“Yes, Luna,” they replied.
She chuckled, “Please just call me Lavana,”
“That is a taboo,” one of them a man with cyan hair responded with seriousness and she nodded in understanding.
“Okay, I see,”
“We’ll be taking our leave, Luna. See you sometime soon,” another man, who was the tallest of the 5, said with a cheerful smile and then they vanished.
She turned to look at Mel and the other four, “The enemies are gone. I need you guys to find your way to the lodging. We’ll meet you there after we’re done with that sorcerer, okay?”
“Will you two be fine?” Rolandro asked in anxiety.
“You guys don’t want to end up as bargaining chip, do you?” she asked with a serious face.
“Alright, we’ll go. Please be safe,” Rolandro said with concern and she nodded. She watched them transform back to their wolf forms.
“I’ll give you a lift,” she said, “So relax,” her nine tails appeared and extended. Five of them wrapped around the wolves and as she levitated, they tried their best to remain calm.
Minutes later, she landed, her tails gently placing the wolves on the ground. They were quite far away from the battle area.
“Now leave and do not look back,” she commanded. The wolves immediately started sprinting away. She waited until she could no longer see their figures before turning around, and her gemstone appeared on her forehead. Closing her eyes and muttering under her breath, her gemstone shone and she teleported to the area where Phoenix and the sorcerer were. She found him still avoiding the fierce attacks of his foe.
“Hey, old man,” she yelled.NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
The sorcerer turned to see her, “You’re unexpectedly a tribrid, huh. Then it’s great. Once you’re dead, I’ll get hold of your powers and refine your blood into a pill,” he laughed evilly.
“Phoenix, you can’t beat him, right?” she mind linked her mate.
“I can only injure gravely him at best. But to really take him down, I’ll need your help. This man’s a real powerhouse,” he admitted. Phoenix dodged another attack launched from the old man’s bare hands. That’s one of the prominent distinctions between a wizard and a sorcerer. One needs the sceptre and the latter doesn’t require it at all.
“Cephina?” she called out to her battle assistant.
The translucent being appeared instantly in front of her, looking sleepy, “What is it?”
“I need you to help take down that old fart over there,” Lavana answered telepathically.
“Oh?” raising an eyebrow, Cephina turned to see Phoenix launching an attack on the sorcerer which the latter dodged with ease.
“Relax. The two of you can kill him without me, though you might end up bedridden for months. Unless it’s a really great emergency, don’t bother calling me out,” she yawned lazily while Lavana stared at her in disbelief.
“What?” Cephina asked with a raised eyebrow.
Lavana nodded sagely, “This is Thora’s side showing up,”
“I’m a combination of three spirits. What’d you expect? I feel so tired,”
The tribrid cocked her right eyebrow, “Tired? What work have you been doing?”
“Having a beauty nap. Go assist him, Lavana,” Cephina yawned again.
“After this, I’ll make sure to starve for 2 days,” Lavana threatened.
“What? Starve? How can you say that? The energy absorbed from food is so…” nervously laughing, she continued, “Look at me, I’m wide awake now, aren’t I?” she said, stretching her body, “Lots of energy will be consumed. Are you certain you want me to battle in your place?”
“I’m not an expert with my skills yet, and that old thing is giving my mate a hard time,” Lavana replied with a resolute expression.
Cephina nodded, “Alrighty!” she flew to the sorcerer who had just received a hit from Phoenix. He wasn’t surprised by the dark mist that his opponent had launched. His foe’s eyes turning viridian was enough proof to him that the Savage Lord was the Olmpha’s mate and a hybrid.
Phoenix’s entire look had changed, the marks made by Thora on that first night met were now visible on his super handsome face, and his hair had become two-coloured- silver with cerulean ends. And his casual outfit had become a black leather robe studded with several precious stones. His feet were bare of footwear, the peacock fan in his hand.
“Hey old fart, how about I join the fray?” Cephina said with an impish grin as she made herself become visible to the sorcerer who was inwardly puzzled as to where this one popped out from without him noticing.
The tribrid was still around but her eyes were closed and she was in a meditative pose on the ground. Her body was glowing faintly. Did she have anything to do with the appearance of this woman? There was no time for much thought as Cephina launched multiple ice chains at the opponent.
Phoenix also threw his fan which turned into several daggers, heading for the still-smug old man.
