Death Guns In Another World

1593  Chapter 1416: Vanquished

If Wilhelmina had been aware of what had befallen her most trusted ally, Garcia, she would have desperately sought alternative solutions. However, she was unfortunately unable to spare any tor concern for him now. Her utmost priority lay in resolving her own life-and-death predicament.

With a swift and powerful "swish," a shadowy whip lashed out, causing chaotic ripples in the air. Yet, it met its match against a flawless defensive barrier, rendering its efforts futile. Maggie smirked, spreading her arms wide, confident in the unwavering protection of her impenetrable shield. She tightened her fists and charged forward like a colossal, unstoppable force, delivering a mighty punch towards Wilhelmina, accompanied by a turbulent gust. Faced with this menacing assault, Wilhelmina furrowed her brow and swiftly retreated, her feet gracefully tapping on a boulder, executing a gravity-defying 90-degree turn in mid-air to evade Maggie's attack. However, this evasion did not guarantee her safety, as a glimpse of scarlet radiance caught her peripheral vision.

For the first time, a solemn expression crossed Wilhelmina's face; her earlier prideful smile had vanished entirely, replaced by a sense of urgency and seriousness. Hastily, she extended her arms before her, causing a pair of ethereal bat wings to materialize from the shadows, enveloping her like a protective cocoon.

Yet, in that very moment, Scarlett made her move.

Bending low, her left hand gripping the flaming sheath of a sword, while her right hand grasped its hilt, Scarlett took a decisive step forward. With a swift motion, she unsheathed the sword, her actions so swift that Wilhelmina had barely turned around and her shadowy bat wings had barely expanded in size. Before Wilhelmina could react, the sword of flames pierced through her shadowy wings, erupting in a blaze of scarlet fire on impact, propelling Wilhelmina backwards like a massive fireball. However, just before crashing down, she swiftly regained control, extinguishing the flames that engulfed her in an instant. Landing gracefully on her feet once again.

''Tch! She is like a damn cockroach!'' Maggie grumbled while Scarlett smiled in response.

Compared to the exasperated Maggie, she was apparently more composed, which she even casually drew a pretty pattern using the tip of her sword. Read Web s Online Free - Fire Fire -

In the midst of the intense battle, Wilhelmina found herself taken aback and filled with alarm. She had never anticipated that Maggie and Scarlett would possess such extensive knowledge of the royal vampires' characteristics. Not only were they cautious in preventing any contamination of their blood, but they had also abandoned their usual long-range bombardment spells in favor of close-combat tactics. Wilhelmina struggled to adapt to this unexpected turn of events, having never witnessed a Mage and Healer engage in such a fierce close-combat battle before.

However, Wilhelmina begrudgingly acknowledged that this change in strategy made Maggie and Scarlett an even greater threat to her. Whether it was Maggie or Scarlett, their proficiency in close-combat tactics was remarkable. Their coordination was impeccable, and their elemental flames and iron fists, fueled by pure holy energy, possessed immense power. Wilhelmina found it incredibly challenging to withstand their relentless attacks. To add to her despair, it seemed that they were also aware of the limited tshe had in her awakened state. This explained why they employed delaying tactics instead of immediately launching a full assault on her, leaving her frustrated and seething with anger.

Unbeknownst to Wilhelmina, her attack patterns had been revealed to Alex's group through the corpse puppet of a former ally. If she had been aware of this, she would have likely been even more infuriated.

While Scarlett and Maggie could afford to prolong the battle, Wilhelmina knew she couldn't wait any longer. Every second counted, and she needed to escape. However, the impenetrable barrier surrounding her, as thick as a turtle shell, dashed her hopes of finding an exit. With no other options available, her only choice was to defeat the two young women as swiftly as possible. Once the tlimit of her awakening expired, she would be at their mercy, like a helpless fish on a cutting board. At that point, she wouldn't have a say in whether she would be steamed, braised, or stewed.

Wilhelmina wasn't about to waste anymore time. She grunted, lashing the long whip in her hand that turned into three mysterious, viper-like presences at its end. The three vipers hissed, pouncing on the two young ladies before them as though they were self-conscious. But Maggie neglected their presence entirely as she continued to burst forward like a rampaging tank with its cannon upfront on the battlefield, ignoring all insignificant damage. Facing Wilhelmina's attack, Maggie, the battle Healer snarled and took large steps forward. She clenched her hands into fists, pushing them before her. Along with her actions, another defensive barrier appeared around her hands. Then, she thrust the defensive barrier forward like a forklift that had lost control, flattening every obstacle before it.

Wilhelmina's attack was no exception. The ice-cold, venomous, dark vipers of death instantly melted to the incomparable holy strength as soon as they collided with the barrier. Before Ashvril retracted her arm, a red flare had enveloped her as Scarlett's sword had arrived in the blink of an eye. Once again, the unmatched power of flames that could roast the entire world blasted at Wilhelmina.

"You're asking for death!"

Facing this combined attack, Wilhelmina snarled in rage. She raised her arms, coalescing all her power, attempting to teach the two scoundrels an unforgettable lesson about who she was and the consequences of treating her this way!

The power inside her gathered, abstracting the most essential and destructive presence within. They turned into several long whips that lashed in all directions, forcing Scarlett and Maggie into defensive stances. Just a while more and Wilhelmina could coalesce the purest form of energy and destroy everything…

But this was the end.

All of a sudden, the power inside her ran wild, scattering to all parts of her body uncontrollably. Wilhelmina shuddered as she sensed her power declining, disappearing, and returning to peace under the influence of a certain external factor.

Wilhelmina couldn't consider this question anymore. She retreated quickly to evade the blade strike from Scarlett, which almost took her life. But before Wilhelmina readied herself again, a piercing pain had punctured her body from the back. Wilhelmina lowered her head and witnessed a black, razor-sharp blade of a massive sickle penetrating out of her slender, alluring body, destroying this beautiful presence cruelly.

At this moment, she heard someone's voice.

"You thought I was really gone?"

"Shadow Queen!"

Upon hearing the Shadow's Queen voice, Wilhelmina gnashed her teeth and snarled fumingly. She finally understood why she couldn't control her power at that very instant.

"No…!"

Wilhelmina screamed, struggling to break free from the Shadow Queen. However, it was too late as Scarlett's and Maggie's attacks arrived before her. At the very next moment, the incomparable holy power and flames plunged into her body. The vampire duchess who had lost all strength finally gave in to this powerful attack and let out a high-pitched mourn. But this wasn't the end, the Shadow Queen turned the sickle around and withdrew it from Wilhelmina's body. The vampire duchess lost her balance and crashed to the ground. She lifted her head, gnashed her teeth, and glared at the Shadow Queen, the latter stared back at her prey.

"Y-You…"

Before Wilhelmina could say anything the Shadow Queen flicked her fingers and the girls attacked, combining the holy element together with hell flame.

Kaboom!

''!!!!!!"

Wilhelmina's body was swallowed and she uttered a deafening cry.

To completely kill the enemy, the Shadow Queen preformed a ritual, numerous hand signs were made creating an ominous looking magic circle.

"———!"

Along with the Shadow Queen's actions, a fuzzy, shadow-like soul was extracted from the scorched body by an unknown force, trembling violently as though resisting. However, she flourished the sickle without hesitation and the soul screeched, before being absorbed into the sickle entirely. As the soul vanished, the remains under the daylight shattered and disappeared completely.

The Shadow Queen lowered her head and stared at the sickle in her hand where there was an indistinct, mourning face flickering from tto time, eventually vanishing. She let out a snort, before turning her hand around and putting the sickle away.

At this moment, the bright radiance of the sun had infiltrated the night sky completely.

Night was over and it was the start of a new day.
