Endless Evolution: Last Star

Chapter 360 Midnight Crystal (Part 85)

Earlier, on the battlefield inside the purple flame ring, the black and blue flashes fought to get a chance to capture the white flash - Midnight Crystal.

But... after literally descending from the sky, losing one clash but quickly returning with renewed strength, they were joined by a new flash - an amber one. Despite its calm, noble color, the amber flash was the most aggressive and wild, like a true beast unleashed from its chains.

Crackle.

Nessaʼs long claws slashed into the black blade, releasing outward cascades of sparks flying before Plague Reaperʼs focused eyes.

He quickly set the bone hilt to strike before glancing at the blade of his weapon, in the reflection, he saw a silver needle coming straight for his neck.

Plague Reaper narrowed his eyes before turning around sharply, raising a cloud of dust around him with the tip of his foot.

ʼWhat the hell...?ʼ Adam internally muttered when a smoke screen appeared in front of the tip of his needle.

A second later, he pierced through the billow of smoke, but Plague Reaper was no longer in that spot.

Whoooooooooooooosh.

Before Adam could realize anything, a black blade appeared before his eyes, slicing through his chest in a wide sweep.

Neither Katrinʼs roots nor Osanaʼs airflow could protect Adam from this attack. Plague Reaperʼs scythe, left a deep cut on his chest, dark blood rushing out, flying in front of Adamʼs shocked eyes.

Bam.

Plague Reaperʼs boot smashed the drops of blood, crashing right into Adamʼs lost face.

He didnʼt have time to react or somehow block this attack, taking full damage.

The impact, threw him truly far away, causing him to spin in mid-air, splattering the ground with blood from his broken nose.

The Plague Reaper nodded slightly. It was unclear from his movements, but it was difficult to do something like that, it took all of his mastery to do it. He couldnʼt allow himself to be trapped between Adam and Nessa, it was too dangerous.

”You piece of shit, look at me!”

Nessa exclaimed furiously, sinking her claws into the Plague Reaperʼs shoulder.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Plague Reaperʼs coat shuddered vigorously, a jaw emerging from the thick darkness, eager to stop Nessaʼs claws.

But...

The long claws emitting amber streams of energy simply tore the jaw apart, passing through the coat and digging into the Plague Reaperʼs flesh.

”Rgrhg!”

For the first time, Plague Reaper let out not a heavy sigh, but a growl filled with vivid pain. Nessaʼs claws sliced through his flesh, going down quickly, leaving four bloody streaks running from his shoulder to his shoulder blade.

It was a real success for Nessa, but the Plague Reaper wouldnʼt be able to reach his current level of strength if a simple wound could disable him.

Whoooooooosh.

Undeterred, Plague Reaper changed his grip and quickly swung his scythe, blocking Nessaʼs claws.

”Youʼre the second person who dared to look at me with that arrogant gaze...” Nessa said furiously, gritting her teeth.

Her amber eyes with vertical pupils were burning Plague Reaper through. She wanted to tear him apart, she was willing to do whatever it took to do so.

”Iʼm still pretty pissed at the first one of you, but since he saved my life, Iʼm definitely not going to kill him.” Nessa growled, referring to Adam, ”But... Youʼll be another monster Iʼll chew to death!”

Suddenly, Nessa stopped using her claws as blades. They were strong and sharp, but not so long that she couldnʼt clench her hands into fists.

Clutch.

Her hands clenched tightly around the bone hilt of the Plague Reaperʼs weapon. She began to put pressure on the Plague Reaper, about to bring him to the ground.

”Grh!!!”

Plague Reaper fought back, struggling to hold against Nessaʼs push since entering her fighting form, her physical strength far exceeded Plague Reaperʼs capabilities.

Thump.

Nessa stomped her foot, using the ground as her base. Her muscles emitted hot steam, straining to the limit.

Bam.

Eventually, Plague Reaper couldnʼt stand, his legs shaking, betraying him and dooming him to fall.

As soon as his back touched the cold ground, Nessaʼs jaw began to close in front of him. Sharp fangs strove to reach their target, which was very near.

Then, Plague Reaperʼs eyes went wide, realizing that just a little more and Nessa would just rip his face off!

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Plague Reaperʼs hands trembled, Nessa pressing harder and harder using her superior position.

With each heartbeat, scytheʼs hilt moved closer to Plague Reaperʼs chest as well as Nessaʼs jaw, like a wild piranha seeing its prey.

”RGHA!!!”

Plague Reaper growled, plunging his feet into Nessaʼs steel abs. Despite the force of the kick, Nessa flew only a few meters away, quickly doing a somersault in the air and standing confidently on her feet.

Nessa was ready to attack again, but the Plague Reaper was no longer going to let her get too close to him.

Plague Reaperʼs mouth opened slightly as if he were going to whistle, but instead of whistling, a large amount of black air came out. It was like a cloud covering everything ahead, moving quickly towards Nessa.

Then, watching their battle, Katrin and Osana realized something. Unlike them and Adam, Nessa was not protected by the wind veil! She had joined their fight quite late, and Osana simply didnʼt have a chance to protect her. Explore more stories at empire

”NO! Run away! Dodge!” Osana exclaimed, realizing that they couldnʼt lose Nessa because of such a stupid mistake.

Nessa threw a scornful look at her, but she didnʼt move away, she didnʼt take a single step out of her seat at all.

”Run away? Do you really think Iʼm afraid of this air? Even if it is deadly, I just need to get rid of this cloud of death!” Nessa snorted before opening her mouth wide, taking a deep breath.

Her lungs expanded, allowing her to suck in an abnormal amount of air. She absorbed all the clean air around her, practically creating a vacuum.

”Agh...? What the hell is she doing?” Katrin tilted her head in a baffled manner.

Osanaʼs eyes went wide when she realized what was going on there.

Whooooooooooosh.

Nessa bent forward, at once letting out all the air. It was like a real storm, sweeping away everything in its path, whether it was black air, dust, or small stones on the ground.

Nessaʼs breath cleared everything, causing Plague Reaper to cover himself with his hands and lean on his scythe to keep the airflow from blowing him away.

Magnus, watching this, chuckled evilly.

”Hehehe, good, sheʼs getting better at realizing how her inadequate physical strength can be used.”
