Chapter 466: Sara versus Superbia

Sara and Superbia were like polar opposites.

It began with their hair; one had blonde streaks while the other black. Sara's hair fluttered gently while Superbia's remained motionless, held by her prideful aura.

The dullahan momma wore a black battle dress enhanced by her mother. It wrapped and circled around Sara perfectly. On the other hand, Superbia wore a white suit, tightly emphasizing her curves.

And as they were in a staring contest, Superbia had her eyes fixed on Sara. On the other hand, Sara often picked at her sisters and Alex, wishing them the best.

At last, Superbia parted her lips, looking at Sara's weapon, "Inferior creature uses a spear. Very well."

She made a spear out of her prideful mana, clenched it tightly, and strutted across the skies toward Sara! She exuded so much arrogance and confidence that Sara couldn't question her.

Instead, the dullahan momma brandished her spear, waiting for a perfect moment to let out all her energies. When Superbia was pretty close, Sara used the Ultimate Skill and brought mist onto her battlefield, her eyes shone like moons, and she intensely waited for Superbia to enter her reach.

Superbia naturally strode forward, not caring about the mist. She had her eyes on her prey, and nothing could bar her way from getting the dullahan.

Then, as Superbia's heel stomped on the threshold of Sara's reach, the dullahan momma drove her battle horse forward, her spear thrusting for Superbia's neck!

But in less than a second, Superbia also formed a battle horse, sitting on it with her chin high, her spear mimicking Sara's movement. The sparks flashed as the weapons met, the equal strength behind them raising Superbia's eyebrow.

They exchanged slow and careful moves a few times more, then pause took hold of their curves. An unfamiliar light flashed in Superbia's eyes, which Sara couldn't read. It didn't matter as she knew what to do.

Her battle horse charged at Superbia again. Of course, the latter mimicked the movement, trying to show the superiority in Sara's field. But as they kept fighting as equals, Sara knew that Superbia soon would shift her battle style; or would she not?

That wasn't a joyful thought, however. If they kept fighting as equals, there was a chance Superbia could siphon mana from someone else, which was something Sara couldn't do.

Realizing that the battle couldn't go on like that, Sara prepared for the next move. She clashed again in the same style, but for the last attack, Sara's battle horse trembled, disassembled, and formed an additional armor around her.

That transformation was quick enough to inflict a blow on Superbia's shoulder! From a different angle and in higher strength, Sara simply had no way of missing that!

Superbia hadn't reacted, though. Although a black spear was lodged in her shoulder, blood trickled down her white suit, and her loss was apparent, her eyes remained fixed on Sara as though she were a zombie.

"Your spearmanship is better than mine," Superbia said, her eyes hollow. "I will erase you will all my might to get rid of that stain on my name. You will not even go to Purgatory, dullahan woman.

Tell me your name, and I will make a spot for you in my heart."

"Your heart? More like a graveyard with your prey. I haven't had come here to talk with you. Show me your might, or I will kill you," Sara replied seriously, brandishing the spear.

Superbia hadn't replied. Instead, she took her true form, her body shedding her beautiful looks and turning into a black demon. She was vast with wings like spider webs and empty eye sockets. Her form was still slim and somewhat curvaceous.

The sky darkened instantly as her might came out from her demonic form.

"Dies Irae."

A thick orb of an adult head's size floated above her right palm. She extracted 'hubris' from the Avander World and beyond.

And that might was in her hand!

Without wasting any second, Superbia chucked that power at Sara! The orb left a thick trail, and dimensional cracks hissed in its wake. The might caused the world to tremble; all of it directed at Sara.

She just moved her lips -- no sound came out from her little mouth.

Then Sara lurched forward. She called forth all her mana, the mist coiling around her spear alongside sinful energies. She recalled her family, then thrust her spear at the orb, her intent to pop it!

BANG! BANG! BANG!

The terrifying explosion swept through the skies. The blue sky partially turned black, and no sound came out from the battlefield. In the middle of that explosion, Sara stood with her body wounded from top to bottom.

Her battle dress was gone, and some bits hung off her body. Blood streamed down her as though someone had poured red paint on her, her right arm was gone, and deep lacerations showcased bones in some places.

With a spare spear in her left hand, Sara strutted forward. She moved through the skies with her mana vibrating below her feet, but even that proved to be a challenge with her destroyed body.

Superbia gazed at her with widened eyes, applauding the dullahan momma for not running away.

She waited for her to come closer.

At that time, someone else's voice rang out from below. She called Ultimate Skill and the forest guardians sprouted from the ground. Five tree guardians extended their hands and branches for Superbia!

window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})And as it was totally unexpected, Superbia hadn't moved, her demonic body rooted in the skies!

"A SIN OF PRIDE! YOU WIELD SIN OF PRIDE! YOU HAVE MY MANA IN YOUR HEART, AND YOU DARE TO RELY ON OUTSIDERS IN OUR CLASH?!"

She struggled to move, but as The Elven Queen's goal was to hold her in one place, she ushered her attention and new skills to ensure her intent wouldn't be broken. In other words, the guardians bloomed with nature!

Animals and monsters formed from mana went in Superbia's direction. Snakes coiled around her demonic form, other bugs and animals gnawed on her flesh, and birds swarmed her vision!

"Outsiders?" Sara glowered at Superbia, her voice sharp like her spear. "She's my sister, a lovely girl who will bear a child of my beloved. She and her child and everyone else dear to my heart are my pride. My pride is my family. You won't understand it, Superbia. You who don't even know who you are as you want to win over everyone in their fields."

As Sara's spear rose to be just before Superbia's chest, Sara added, "Your pride is the reason you died."

Superbia froze, the truth hitting her like a truck. Perhaps, she would soon get isekaied.

And Sara's spear went through Superbia's chest, popping her heart. It wasn't hard to find her chest; even in demonic form, Superbia wanted to be a woman.

"Sara!"

Sara dropped her weapon and gently descended onto one of the guardians. She landed on soft leaves, her body healed by nature's honey. Bees passed some nectar while Remia made her way toward her with high qualities potions.

Sara glanced at her, then smiled, "Thank you for your assistance, Remia."

Remia shook her head, "No problem. It's my honor to help to kill Superbia!"

Sara chuckled, then whispered, "Look."

The black energy dropped onto them. Remia helped Sara raise her left arm, then dullahan momma gathered all of it on her palm. It became a divine sign, [Superbia]. But just like her sisters, she guided that power to the skies where her beloved fought.

Remia and Sara followed that mark until it disappeared from the battlefield in the skies.
