Shen Yue's heart sank. They will keep committing suicide until they die permanently? Though she had no proof that something like this was actually possible, she was inclined to believe this witch.
The crazy psycho did not look like she was joking. She needed to finish this fight as soon as possible and get to the graveyard, or at least inform someone about this.
She clutched her daggers tightly and dashed toward the princess, whose eyes were red now as if she had undergone some sort of transformation.
After forming her mana core, Shen Yue obtained a few more skills, but none of them enabled her to do this. So she couldn't help but wonder what exactly this woman's power was. What were her plus points and minus points?
As for her own positives and negatives, by now it was clear that none of her enchantress class skills worked on the enemy. [Beguile], [Mesmerize], [Distract], nothing worked.
The same was true for the princess. She was also not able to charm Shen Yue as she did with the other two guys. Also, her magic strength also seemed to be quite low. Either she was injured, to begin with, or she was currently not at her peak.
Either way, this was a fight that Shen Yue was not prepared to give up. She only needed ten minutes, and she was confident that she would be able to finish this up and help the two people, who by now were probably respawning at the nearest graveyard.
"Wait for me." She muttered and started swinging her daggers madly. None of their class powers was working against each other, so it all came down to this, her fighting technique.
Shen Yue had not been lazing around all of these days. She had trained hard for several hours every single day with Asura. Her current fighting form was completely different from before. Every action she took demonstrated the painstaking effort she had put forth.
The princess growled in anger as she saw that she couldn't shake Shen Yue off that easily. "What weapon is that?" She attacked with more dark energy bolts.
Shen Yue didn't bother answering her, as she evaded most of them and blocked some of them with her dagger. The stinging, corrosive dark elemental energy couldn't do anything to the legendary weapon. She kept pushing the enemy with everything she had.
The princess tried her best to keep this a long-range fight, but Shen Yue kept closing in on her, forcing the opportunity for the damned witch to be stabbed with her poison daggers.
She alternated her pace, one of the tricks she learned from Asura, so her attacks also alternated between fast-paced and slow-paced. It was very difficult for the princess to make sense of her pattern and rhythm. It threw her off.
Shen Yue's stats right now were also highly boosted thanks to the daggers, so with that, she was able to make up for the level difference. She might have been a damsel in distress the first time around when fighting with the mother, but now she was not even close to being helpless.
Moreover, she had 60% resistance against dark element after she formed her mana core, so unless the princess used powerful attacks, she wasn't able to do anything to the woman. These attacks came infrequently, which Shen Yue avoided at all costs.
The longer the fight lasted, the more certain Shen Yue became. The princess was wounded. Even though she had not managed to land a hit until now, she knew that she would be able to do so soon enough.
Ahhhhhh! She shouted as she executed [Blade Dance] again. She was slowly beginning to overpower the damn woman.
And if the princess was able to use demonic spells, was she also capable of doing the same? Suddenly, Shen Yue had the urge to try something. It was like an instinct. She had observed Liam so many times, well for different reasons, but she was able to mimic him.
'Feel my mana core and move it.' She muttered to herself and tried to increase her speed. Just a little bit more, and she would be able to do it.
Shen Yue gritted her teeth and pushed herself as she finally landed a perfect stab. But at the last minute, the princess blocked with thick demonic energy miasma.
Unfortunately for her, Shen Yue was not done yet. She had already foreseen this and twirled around to land the real attack she had planned.
-5000
A damage number popped up. This was nothing huge, but that was not the point. Now that she had landed an attack, the effect of the dagger should be active. Was it the paralyzing effect or the poison effect?
-1000
The next second, another damage number popped up, immediately answering Shen Yue's question. It was the poison effect that would now make her health slowly bleed!
"This is not enough, you whore. Do you think you can kill me with this cheap trick?" The princess's face contorted and Shen Yue smirked. She did not stop attacking and continued pushing forward with her daggers.
Soon another attack landed and then another, an insane damage number popping out.
-10000
This was the real power of the daggers. The poison effects and the paralyzing effects actually stacked. The more hits landed, the more the poison would spread and drain the health of the opponent.
"Just one more and you are dead, bitch." Shen Yue relentlessly attacked the princess, not giving up. Her daggers gleamed with bloodlust as she went in again for the kill.
However, before her daggers could touch her, suddenly a golden shield appeared between them. Shen Yue's eyes widened in shock. What was this attack? It didn't look like her opponent's attack.
As she was wondering about this, she unexpectedly heard a voice. "That's enough. I will take it from here."
And when she turned around to look, Shen Yue saw a woman in a cream-white robe standing next to them.
