So that Warwraith is actually so kind of hidden boss himselffascinating.
To be honest, there were a wide variety of rare abilities one could be born with. For example, those who were anointed with an original sin like Mo Na, or being born with an elental affinity like Elena, Eugenia or Numila; they were all gifted individuals in their clans. However, while there might have been a wide variety of abilities to inherit, those who did were far and few between.
During the ti when I was talking to Sinmosa, No.3 and Big 4 started duking it out with that Demon Fire Salamander.
For the most part, they approached this fight intelligently, choosing not to fight it head on but instead choosing to make use of their natural advantage of flight to harass the salamander. After all, just because their target was riddled with wounds didnt an it was a pushover. At the end of the day, it was a Six-stars.
The two of them took turns to hold the attention of the Demon Fire Salamander. While one attacked, the other would distract the salamander without even needing any sort of communication between them. Initially, this tactic worked spectacularly and the salamander was left scrambling about to try and cope their tactics. Even worse for it was the fact that the both of them concentrated their attacks on its injured limb. If it even lost focus for a single second, it would be instantly t with a couple of lethal attacks from the front and back.
Because its left front leg was injured, it had a limited range of movent available to it. Adding on the fact that No.3 and Big 4 were able to fly circles around it with their superior mobility, all the injured salamander could do was feebly launch ranged attacks at them.
Naturally, for a salamander at its level, it had more than just physical attacks in its repertoire. It had a ranged attack of its own as well, but it wasnt magical in nature. Instead, this ability had more to do with the scope of its innate abilities.
Dive after dive, the two devils would take potshots at the helpless salamander who could only spit out pillars of fire at them, to not much avail. Because of that, we had the impression that those pillars were the only ranged attack it had in its arsenalwho wouldve thought this was exactly what it was aiming forin fact, I wouldnt be surprised if it had even more attacks after the showing that it was about to put up.
Just as Big 4 completed another dive, confidence brimming as he soared into the air, he was suddenly onset by countless fla arrows that gathered together into a huge, blinding bunch of flas which soon exploded and engulfed him
Sh**, dont tell hes done for Not only was I concerned, so were Mo Na, Sinmosa and Sasasni
Yet even our most optimist predictions couldnt be any further from the truth. With Big 4 as its core, the flas started rapidly fizzling out until only Big 4 was left floating in the air as before, not only uninjured but looking even more radiant than before.
Dont tell he ate those flasif thats the case, I would have to thank that salamander then.
I guess flas really cant harm a Fla Devil, in fact, they feed the devil energy insteadbut stilldid the salamanders always possess such a long ranged attack?
Ive never encountered such a case before. Sinmosa answered imdiately, without any hesitation whatsoever. Perhaps thats its own unique ability. After all, for a salamander to survive for so long under the onslaught of those Warhorses, it had to have sothing special in its arsenal.
Mhm. That sneak attack was really well executed, if Big 4 hadnt evolved into a Infant Fla Devil, he would have probably died then. Even a Fla Demon Childes fire resistance isnt even to cope with a conflagration of that magnitude.
Once we discovered that its ranged attacks werent going to harm them but instead help them, No.3 and Big 4 imdiately dropped their wary stance. Clearly, with all of its ranged attacks ineffective, that salamander probably wasnt going to try and launch anymore ranged attacks at them. In all likelihood, this battle was going to be decided with a lee. While No.3 and Big 4 knew so fire attacks as well, that salamander had its own fire resistance so they couldnt deal it any effective damage either.
Once again targeting its crippled limb, No.3 and Big 4 split up once more, each taking up a flank as they cycled through their attacks, one from the left and the other from the right.
No.3 dove in, winds rushing around him as he delivered a resounding swipe at the crippled front left limb. Seeing that, the salamander imdiately turned its sight onto the offending devil and counterattacked. On the other hand, while the salamander was distracted, Big 4 took the opportunity to sneak a swift punch and kick to its soft underbelly.
Naturally, the salamander was able to sense his approach but it simply didnt have to ability to react because of its injuries. Trying to cover its belly and limb at the sa ti, the salamander nearly collapsed onto the ground thanks to its awkward positioning. By the ti it was able to stabilize itself and raise its head once more, it was t with the taunting gazes of No.3 and Big 4
With the way the two of them pestered the salamander, I wouldnt be surprised if it just got annoyed to death at this point.
My eyes were completely glued to the fight right now. It was then that Sinmosa coldly muttered: Weak
Whats weak?
That salamander, its too weak. Theres no way a Six-stars Demon Fire Salamander could be so weak. Furthermore, just look at the way it keeps trying to protect its underbelly. From its standpoint, it would make more sense to just try and take down No.3 who keeps trying to attack its injured limb. Big 4s attacks might be powerful, but they arent at the level where its own defenses couldnt handle them unless
Deliberating protecting its underbellyappearing in a region where it shouldnt bewhy does this remind of sothing.
I turned my gaze onto its belly and gave it a hard look. There, I found no wounds whatsoevereven though its body was covered in cuts all over and drenched in blood, only that particular region of its body was completely clean.
Is that a male or a female salamander?
A female. Sinmosa imdiately answered. While I wasnt the best at recognizing a creatures gender, Sinmosa clearly wasnt the case.
Is it pregnant?
ThatI cant tell. She answered albeit with a slightly exasperated look. In her mind, she was probably saying to herself, how would she knownot like she was so kind of gynecologist for beasts
Since she had no way of telling if the salamander was pregnant or not, it was now up to and my well-honed soul sensing abilities. Because of the salamanders significantly higher strength, I initially wasnt able to get much information from her soul. However, because of her serious injuries, I managed to make out a sea of soul fragnts wandering about in her body, after so digging on my part. Normally, a soul only had one soul within its body, if there was more than one soul living within that body, then it would be safe to say that the creature in question was pregnantnaturally, I was an exception to this rule
Dont tell its about to give birth, isnt it
That was the only possibility I could think of at the mont. The reason for her uncharacteristic behavior must have been precisely because of that; in order to stabilize her birth, this salamander ca looking for Flagrass from Warhorse territory. The Warhorses must have stumbled on her and she ended up as their prey So the salamanders like Yosuga no S*ra tooahem, I think all that talk about blood relations is starting to get to not everything related to Flagrass has to be about Yos*ga no Sora
Stop! I yelled out to the two of them. Co back for now.
With that possibility in mind, I imdiately halted their attacks. Still basking in the elation of being able to bully soone of a higher Stars level than them, my sudden command stunned them for a mont but the both of them soon recovered and returned to my side without any hesitation.
By now, the salamander was basically a defeated lizard, completely unable to retaliate at all, or perhaps she simply chose not to, out of concern for its child. Prior to this, she had basically given up on all forms of attack and was busy protecting her own belly while crawling forward relentlessly. Unfortunately, her crippled left front leg ant that she could only slowly hobble forward with three of her limbs. With two devils harassing her from the side, it took all her attention and effort just to maintain so semblance of balance in her crawls. She knew she mustnt fall, else the first to make contact with the ground would undoubtedly be her bellyshould that ever happen, that egg in her belly would definitely crack under the sudden force
Master, were back.
As they landed beside , the both of them had a look of confusion on their faces. In their minds, they probably werent able to comprehend why I recalled them when the battle was about to end. Their foe clearly had no way of resisting so victory was rely a matter of ti.
To however, it wasnt a matter of victory at all. What we were doing was ganging up on a pregnant mother who was ready to give up her life for her baby. No matter who it was, or what they were, this show of motherly affection was universal. For us to act against such a mother would just be
Besides, we didnt actually have any sort of blood feud with this salamander; all she did was make fun of for a second or so. Now that I had taught her a lesson, there really wasnt a point in attacking her anymore.
As they say, the cycle of hatred and all thatheh heh, just look at , repaying her belligerence with magnanimityI know, Im such a noble guy.
Lets go, it wont be able to block our way anymore.
The mont I said that, everyone, including Mo Na and Cinderel, gave a bewildered look as if I had just done sothing inexplicable
Whats up with you guys?
Ill be honest here, that look you guys are giving right now, creeps out. Dont tell you guys all got possessed or sothing
