Chapter 155: Unfair Layla

As much as Layla looked the part as a little kid, there were definitely some jarring differences between her and the average child.

Other than the ears and tail, the most prominent difference was her overwhelming strength. That strength let her... do something strange.

The surrounding golden pillars twisted into snake heads. They were so life-like, it was hard to believe that they were actually solid gold. The golden snakes bared their fangs and pounced towards Layla.

In just a moment, Layla was surrounded by the gaping jaws of golden snakes in a variety of sizes.

A loud snap reverberated.

The golden snakes bit down hard... only to hit nothing.

Right before they were about to reach Layla, she suddenly dipped down. The sudden acceleration was one that seemed to defy the laws of physics. Without any propulsion, Layla could dramatically increase her falling speed.

...Or more accurately, she stopped slowing herself down.
