Evelyn, while digging up the Destaphia Roots she needed suddenly felt a presence coming from behind her.
In a flash of movent, she leapt into the air and spread her wings to gain so altitude.
A mont later the place she was standing was slamd into by a large form.
When the creature lifted itself from the hole in the ground it had created Evelyn looked at it with wide eyes.
Before he was not a beast like she had excepted but instead what looked like a giant Venus flytrap.
Its mouth was easily five ters long and it had long sharp teeth and an obviously highly caustic acid dripped out of its mouth.
'Wait it has gray stripes going along its body.' Evelyn observed.
That was when she realized that this was the main body of the Destaphia, and she had just been attacked for trying to dig out its roots.
ntally berating herself Evelyn made sure to rember to follow up on investigating the ingredients she was going to be looking for.
'I guess just knowing it was here and having seen the example of the root lisandre had shown was not enough. Still, while it seems fairly powerful and nacing, I think I will be fine against just one.' Evelyn thought as she prepared to square off against the Destaphia.
Except as she prepared to attack, she had a bad feeling in her stomach. And with a few quick glances she noticed that she was already surrounded.
Coming out of the crevasse in the wall of the gorge where it seed that just ordinary vines were growing hundreds of Destaphias had appeared.
All of them had the form of giant Venus flytraps. With the smallest begin around three ters long and the largest being over ten.
Each of them was far bigger than Evelyn, and she found herself completely boxed in with nowhere to escape to.
For a couple of seconds everything was calm with the only movent begin the flapping of Evelyn's wings.
Then as if the stillness had all been an illusion every single one of the giant mouths filled with razor sharp teeth and acid ca flying towards Evelyn.
Without hesitation she wreathed herself in crimson fire and whipped up a tornado around herself.
Flas and wind began slicing through and incinerating the Destaphias that ca at Evelyn in an unending wave.
The first several dozen never even got close to her, but she could only generate so much power in a single instant and eventually one broke through.
It opened its mouth to try and swallow her as it got through a break in her magic, but its teeth failed to reach her.
The crimson fla surrounding her like armor burned its fangs away before it could bite down and quickly its entire body was begin burnt to a crip.
Still, it managed to connect with Evelyn, and before it was completely turned to ash it smashed right into her.
This sent her spiraling back towards the ground and more and more of the Destaphias started crashing into her with no regard for their lives.
'Ugh! Back off!'
Anger welling up inside her Evelyn activated her gravity field and lowed the gravity in the area.
This made the blows coming at her much lighter, and it took far less power from her wind magic to blow the creatures back as she built up more of her heavenly fla around her.
After she had made so room, she no longer held anything back and began unleashing indiscriminate blasts of her heavenly fla.
It ate through her magical energy at an astronomical rate, but she torched every single one of the hundreds of Destaphias trying to eat her.
Three minutes quickly went by with Evelyn going berserk on the plants that were trying to eat her.
Eventually not a single one remained. Only the ash in the air and surrounding area to show that they ever existed.
'I really freaking hate plants in this world.' Evelyn thought as she kicked so of the limp vines that had at one ti been attached to Destaphias heads.
When her anger was placated, she began going back to digging up the roots she needed for her alchemy and to complete one of the missions she had taken.
With monotonous motions Evelyn began digging up the dirt and unearthed the Destaphia Roots that she needed.
Using her talons she sliced them apart and sealed them away in preservation jars before storing them away.
This went on for nearly five minutes as she gathered what she needed to complete the mission and a bit for herself.
Yet before she could get all that she wanted; a new foe arrived.
Her battle with Destaphias had caused quite the commotion, and other beasts had co to investigate.
Now standing in front of her was a large goat that had two heads.
Seeing it, Evelyn recoiled back by how unsettling its appearance was, but fear soon gripped her for another reason when she felt its aura.
It exuded the power of a low tier tyrant rank beast, and she knew that she was not ready to take sothing like this.
'I need to get out of here.'
With no hesitation she turned around to fly away, but before she could the goat bleated loudly and the earth around her rose up and slamd closed around her.
Covered in her heavenly fla Evelyn annihilated the ground around her and lted away the stone that had nearly crushed her to death.
'Extre Press.'
Seeing the surprise in her opponent's eyes that she survived, Evelyn used the small opening to use her strongest gravity attack to hold her new enemy down while she escaped.
Unable to resist, the massive two headed goat sunk into the soft ground of the riverbank, and Evelyn took leave into the air.
She figured this would be the end of it, but the tyrant rank goat was not going to let her escape so easily, and after getting out of the hole Evelyn had sunk it into, it began running up the wall of the gorge by creating platforms with its earth magic.
And as Evelyn thought the situation could not get worse, another entity appeared from above.
A giant ape beast at the peak of the awakened rank had now shown up to investigate what was going on and began swinging from vine to vine towards Evelyn.
Now she had a dangerous foe coming from the front and back.
Still a peak wakened beast was far easier to deal with than a tyrant beast, so Evelyn kept going full steam ahead.
With careful use of all of her magics she jetted by the gorilla in a bust of fla and wind.
Luckily by leaving it behind, the tyrant rank goat chasing her turned its attention towards the gorilla instead and allowed Evelyn to create so distance.
Yet when it seed she would be safe, sothing she had not expected to ever see ca at her from below.
A pod of flying dolphins that were constantly using their echolocation to pick up on her location were making a beeline for her.
And this was not all. From above more beasts were coming to look into the commotion she had caused. It had truly turned into a rampage of beasts that were all converging around her.
