The Adventures of Rose Hood

Chapter 95: A Beast's Hunger

Me and Ella clashed again.

"You are strong, I can see why the Slayers sought to recruit you, even as a lower being."

She was too strong, even using all of my power, I could not touch her.

Luckily, I was too quick for her to hit me, thus we were in a stalemate.

Both of us were flying. She walked on air, and I was in a mid-shift state.

I had reptilian legs and wings out of my back.

"I look like a harpy rip off."

Ella laughed.

"You really do, anyways, you will lose here."

"I doubt it. I have a score to settle with the kin killer, and I can't fall until I kill her at least."

"What is so wrong about a beast killing another beast? You are dragons, she merely learnt to become stronger by consuming a weakling."

"And that's the difference between us."

"Hm?"

"You see a beast killing and eating a beast. I see a sister cannibalizing her own flesh and blood. That is fit of a monster."

"Either way, you are far too weak, the Slayers will certainly have a good time at the party our mistress is throwing. Maybe even stay that way, you definitely look more adult that way."

In my half shift, I was quite tall. I'd say I looked mid 20s like this. My face didn't change, but I was still almost 2 meters tall now.

"Heh, I'd rather die than entertain people like that."

"I'm afraid that you don't have much of a choice."

Despite being a deity, I was tired. I'd been battling for 10 hours straight. At this point, it took all I could to remain standing.

She struck again. I blocked with my sword.

"A grammite sword? It's well made."

"A dwarven smith made the base, then my sister refined it. It's the last piece of my original fighting armor."

"Ah, sentimental value then. Don't worry, I won't break it, I may keep it as another one of my trophies."

"Heh, as if you could ever beat me."

"You know, if I faced you at the start of this, I probably wouldn't have made it. Levels aside, you are abnormally strong. I'm over 400 and I still can't beat you when you are exhausted."

"Comes with the course."

She slashed too quickly then and lopped my arm off. As it regenerated, she attempted to cut my chest, but I dodged instinctually.

"Such a fine piece of power. I would kill you, but I wouldn't gain any experience, besides the lady would be furious if I broke our merchandise."

I cut and she blocked before kicking my gut and chopping off one of my legs.

She grabbed my neck and threw me to the ground. My shift faded and I became a catkin again.

"Ah too weak."

"Use Savage Beast."

[Are you sure you want to use Savage Beast.]
