Scarlet
I first start the battle by testing out the nightshades strength with a clawed strike directly eting its fist, which ends up sending flying away. But the difference is not insurmountable this ti, and I left a single small scratch on the demon with my attack despite my wrist and arm bones kind of snapping.
Only kind of? Tar mutters, sounding like hes starting to get back to his usual self. Albeit slowly.
My wounds heal almost instantly with my maxed-out Blood Regeneration, proving exactly why Ive t the requirents to advance it to Lycans Regeneration. And at the sa ti, I transform my body into blood and reform myself instantly a few ters away, avoiding a powerful strike from the nightshade that causes the ash on the ground to rise.
Out of the corner of my eye, I find all the Knights and Satan all looking rather surprised at my use of Blood Transformation. But then the nightshade finally narrows its glowing red eyes at and roars, making darkness spread out over the area as beasts of all shapes and sizes rise from the ground made of pure solidified darkness.
Just what I was waiting for.
Blood Thirst now resets after three minutes of not killing anything, and the boost is an entire percent per kill. Although I dont know if the limit on how many stacks I can get is the sa as it was before. Which was about two hundred and fifty stacks at once.
I grin before imdiately spreading my arms out and using Blood Manipulation on all of the blood in the area to raise it all into the air and form weapons with it. And imdiately after that, I use Rain of Blood to pour plague-filled rain down around us that I rge with the weapons, giving each and every weapon every single plague in the set.
Everyone in the area except for the nightshade who is currently lost to his Pride Sin shows various different expressions of shock at the sight of using a direct manipulation skill. One of the most powerful skills in existence since it lets you directly manipulate your magic to a degree. With limits obviously.
After filling the sky with hundreds of plagued blades of blood, I send them flying down at the army of creatures made from darkness, skewering them all. But since theyre made by a Class V, my attacks dont kill them. They do severely weaken them though, and I take that chance to transform back into my quadrupedal beast form and attack, tearing them apart now that theyre weakened. And each and every one I kill raises my stats by a single percentage, making it easier and easier to kill the others until Im on par with them in terms of pure brute force.
Although that wasnt until after taking wounds severe enough to kill a normal person. Wounds that only end up being minor conveniences to my maxed-out Blood Regeneration.
So I continue slaughtering the nightshades minions, occasionally transforming into blood and reforming myself several ters away whenever the nightshade itself tries to attack .
Good thing Satan sent it into a frenzy, otherwise I wouldnt be able to kite it like this.
That aside, this is the most fun Ive had in over a year!
Well duh, Tar mutters, sounding like hes gotten over his shock at how powerful Ive beco. But uh how?
Or not.
Now isnt exactly the ti to be catching you up. Just know that I got two new legendary skills and can upgrade Blood Regeneration to the mythic skill Lycan Regeneration. Although Im waiting on upgrading it till after the battle since itll make the skill weaker at level 1 even if its a mythical. Or at least it probably will.
Its hard to tell with mythical upgrades, Tar comnts, Ive heard that so do get worse at level one and significantly better at higher levels again, and others just get significantly better right away.
Yeah. Best not to test which one Lycans Regeneration will be when it could make this fight a lot harder.
I continue to slaughter the nightshades summons as it summons more and more of them, seemingly never stopping. And at so point, I start using Blood Swarm a skill I dont use often to summon manifestations of blood to fight them when Ive killed enough that my stats almost equal the nightshade.
Almost being the key word as I still need to use Blood Transformation to get away from it.
Its just too bad that none of these summons give any EXP. Although I guess that is probably a good thing in the end, since if I did level up then I wouldnt be one hundred levels below the nightshade anymore. So Id lose my 100% bonus, along with any chance I had to not die.
I continue slaughtering the nightshades summons for a bit, racking up almost all of the stacks possible, only to be stopped when the nightshade finally loses its patience and sends a wave of darkness outwards from it, covering the entire wasteland and sending flying. But I manage to grit my teeth and land on my feet, the various wounds I got from it recovering quickly enough as I sprint forwards and continue slaughtering more summons.
Five more.
A slash straight across the throat of a beast-like beast of darkness.
Four.
A head ripped off of another with nothing but my jaws.
Three.
One more head ripped off, but with my claws this ti.
Two.
And another beast slashed across the throat.
One.
I grin and jump straight over a few humanoid creatures of darkness before landing smack dab on top of a beast-like one and tearing out its throat, finding the ssage Im looking for appear in my vision. But this ti with a surprise.
[Blood Thirst Effect applied. Stack is now 250. You have reached the maximum number of stacks you can have at once. Stacks will not reset for ten minutes regardless of kills made by the user.]
Oh? Thats a nice new addition to the skill.
My grin grows wider, and I finally focus my full attention on the nightshade. Only to quickly realize that there are too many summons to do that.
Then again, the thing is a summoning focused demon.
Annoying.
I sprint forward to continue the massacre.
