Chapter 142: Dandelion [32] - Final Strike
Liora’s figure was many times smaller than the unknown Devil’s true form.
Standing in front of him, she seemed akin to an ant facing a menacing dragon.
Yet, the power coursing through her body filled her with confidence.
The sword in her hand traced through the air, drawing a line across the space, and arrived before the palm.
Then, it struck it.
Liora’s arm trembled. The sword in her grasp shook and, although made of pure darkness, cracks began forming all over its surface.
On the other hand, the downward momentum of the palm only paused for a brief moment before continuing.
A loud shriek followed as the sword could no longer withstand the power.
With a clang, it shattered into fragments, quickly dissolving into shadows.
Fortunately, Liora had never believed that her attack would be able to match the unknown Devil’s.
She only needed it to win her some time, and it had achieved that purpose.
During the brief pause of the palm, the darkness around her rippled, and a hole formed beneath her feet, swallowing her entire figure.
The next moment, the palm finally landed.
The ground of the barracks shook, as a deep, many-meter-long handprint was left across its surface.
Dust and gravel scattered everywhere, destroying what little remained of the nearby buildings.
But the crazed unknown Devil did not feel happy.
He could sense that his prey had disappeared, and his palm had caught nothing.
A furious roar soon escaped his mouth as he turned around and searched for his prey.
Shuttling through the shadows, Liora watched this happen with a cold gaze.
She didn’t rush to take action.
Though she had activated Life Ignition and boosted her strength, she was still fully rational.
She understood that the current True Devil surpassed her in both power and combat experience.
Under normal circumstances, it should have been impossible for Liora to contend with him.
"Thankfully, the current True Devil faces two major issues. Firstly, his power is destined not to last for long. With nothing left to devour, the faith making up his body will soon deplete."
"Secondly, and perhaps most importantly, his loss of consciousness has made his senses far less sharp. I can exploit this to my advantage.
