Book 4: Chapter 100: Fighting The Evil Dragon Together
Those hands were very beautiful and gorgeous. Such beautiful hands would make even the rich noble ladies feel inferior. If they were made into specimens, they would definitely be a work of art that was worth collecting.
Of course, that meant individually. When there were so many of them crawling everywhere with an arm attached to them in numbers that could easily drown everything⦠Then they were no longer a delightful sight.
Trypophobes would definitely faint at this scene. Although Lilith wasnât a trypophobe, they still repulsed her.
And this hatred out of her instinct made her swing her fist at them without any hesitation. The group of hands instantly exploded, turning into countless pieces of minced meat that flew everywhere.
âSeems like we have a feisty guest this time.â
The sweet voice rang out again and this time, Lilith was finally able to pinpoint the source. She turned in the direction of Cornelia and fixed her eyes on the two hands that stretched out from behind her shoulders.
The hand above her left shoulder opened its palm, revealing a slanted eye. The hand above her right shoulder opened its palm, revealing a pair of cherry lips. The eye and mouth could be considered perfect in the sense that they would be breathtaking if found on someoneâs face.
But when they appeared in a hand palm all alone by themselves, it was indescribably weird and even disgusting.
âGagaga⦠Little Hand⦠Youâre here too⦠Mmmmfffâ¦â
Just when Gaz wanted to express his joy at the arrival of his lover, his mouth was stuffed by a lot of hands.
âMmmmff?â
âMy dear⦠Please be quiet for a while.â
The ruby lips on the palm above the right shoulder parted slightly, emitting a voice that was crisp like the sound of silver beads falling onto a jade plate. Her tone was gentle, like how a woman would greet her husband who hadnât returned home for a long time.
Her action however, wasnât gentle at all.
Not only did she shove a lot of hands into Gazâs mouth, but she also pulled his real tongue out then wrung it like a rag before tying it into a knot and stuffing it back.
Gazâs eyes widened like saucers as he grunted a few times before losing his consciousness from the pain.
The hands casually tossed the unconscious Gaz aside before the slanted eye in the other palm looked at Lilith. âAlright. Now that itâs quiet, we can continue. A piece of advice for you, I wonât forgive anyone who bullied Lady Corneliaâ¦â
Tap, tap, tapâ¦
The chaotic noises of fingers tapping on the floor rang out again, as the hands rushed toward Lilith like a swarm of insects.
Lilith stomped her foot hard on the ground. A shockwave immediately emanated from her, blasting the hands away before they could even get close.
âHeh⦠You think⦠these things will work?â
âI think they willâ¦â
The cherry lips in the palm curled into a small smile. The hands that had just been blown away quickly regained their balance on five fingers before continuing their climb toward their opponentâ¦
Lilith swung her fist and the hundreds of them that got close to her were directly smashed into pieces of minced meat that flew everywhere.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
However, reinforcements came quickly.
Lilith continued smashing them. Even using both hands and feet, the crawling hands in the room didnât reduce in number.
They just kept coming endlesslyâ¦
And no one knew where they came from.
Finally, one of the hands managed to slip past Lilithâs attack while she was occupied and grabbed her calf.
Lilithâs dragon eyes instantly turned frosty. Just when she was about to squeeze the disgusting hand that dared to touch her into a pulp, she suddenly staggered.
Her strength⦠Was being drained?!
âLady Cornelia!â
âYou donât have to tell me.â
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Cornelia pointed at Lilith again. The air around her opponent instantly solidified, locking all her limbs.
This immediately immobilized Lilith.
If this was done earlier, Lilith would have been able to break free of this restriction immediately. This was also why Cornelia only restricted one specific part of Lilithâs body just now.
After all, the larger the area, the weaker the restriction power and the easier it was to break free from it.
But nowâ¦
The hand actually took away a part of Lilithâs strength. Although only a small amount, it was enough to temporarily prevent Lilith from doing anything.
âSHILOAH!â
âOhoho⦠At your serviceâ¦â
Unbeknownst to anyone, Shiloah reappeared behind Lilith. His remaining five blade-like claws pierced violently right into Lilithâs body.
Lilith looked down at the sharp claws protruding from her body in confusionâ¦
Shouldnât Shiloah beâ¦
âOhoho, it seems like you didnât know that I can clone myselfâ¦â
The Shiloah standing next to Cornelia suddenly turned into fragments and vanished into thin air.
âAnd⦠I hope you didnât believe that I am a coward who cowers at the sight of you⦠Let me tell you, that was just an act, just like how I deceived you two back then. Iâve always been a great actor.â
Shiloah stirred his claws in Lilithâs body, churning her internal organs into a mess.
COUGH⦠COUGH!
Lilith coughed out a mouthful of blood mixed with mangled flesh. Her limbs stopped struggling. Even with her powerful body, having her internal organs turned into paste would no doubt affect her.
âHeheheâ¦â
Her chuckle continued to irritate Cornelia and her companionsâ eardrums.
âSoâ¦?â
âWhat?!â
âSo⦠whatâs the point of you guys doing this?â
â!?â
Crack⦠Crackâ¦
Lilith twisted her neck a hundred and eighty degrees.
Her molten golden dragon eyes met with Shiloahâs. Right at this moment, Shiloah felt as though a piece of charcoal was shoved into his brain. It stung real bad.
He subconsciously tilted his head back to avoid Lilithâs intense gaze which was filled with a madness that never diminished the slightest bit.
âHehe⦠You said youâre not afraid, but your legs are shakingâ¦â
ââ¦â¦â
Shiloah pressed his free hand on his trembling leg to prevent himself from succumbing to fear. Even so, that didnât really do anythingâ¦
This monster⦠Just how crazy could she getâ¦
âOhoho, Lady Cornelia, I wonât be able to hold on much longer if you donât make a move.â
Shiloah could clearly feel his sharp claws being constantly squeezed by Lilithâs flesh in her body. It felt like they were about to break from being chewed by a fierce beast.
âHold on.â
Corneliaâs fingers danced in the air in front of her. An extremely mysterious, complex and ancient formation that pulsated with terrifying energy gradually formed.
She had pretty much figured it out now. The attacks they used before wouldnât do much good when it came to dealing with this monster known as a dragon.
The only way to kill her was to use a devastating attack so powerful that it could destroy her until nothing was left!
âGo and help him, Little Hand.â
In order to create a formation that powerful, Cornelia would require more time in her current state. This was why Lilith must be retrained first so that nothing could distract her.
âRight away.â
The two hands behind Corneliaâs shoulders drooped slightly. At the same time, all the hands in the room jumped up and rushed toward Lilith like they were on steroids.
Lilith turned her head around again. In the reflection of her frosty and craze-filled dragon eyes was the overwhelming number of hands rushing toward her.
With a sinister grin on her face, she said:
âHehe⦠Letâs⦠have fun togetherâ¦â
