Chapitre 33: Chapter 32: Whispering Reality
"Stop right there!". Ophelia proclaimed audibly. "Don't you dare hurt my people". She was already transformed.
Ophelia's transformation is a real forest queen. She wears a verdant crown and a luxuriant dress. Behind her back is a leafy pair of wings. She radiates greenish celestial mystical energy around her.
"Ah, the Mangrove family". The Ashes Witch spoke with a high pitched voice. "What a coincidence to see you here".
"No she didn't hurt me at all, she is safe". Esserine was standing in front of the Ashes Witch. "She is my mother!".
"Girl, are you paralyzed!?!". Maria raised her eyebrows. "Did that witch put a spell on you?".
"Esserine, we are here, you don't need to act". Adelphia was trying to calm Esserine down. "We'll help you dispel the illusion".
"Sweetheart, help me!". The Ashes Witch whispered in Esserine's ear.
Suddenly, Esserine's eyes became totally white. Everyone can't even see the color of her eyeballs.
"We need to save her before she tries to hurt herself". Olivia said urgently.
"Let's split, half of us will try to chain down Esserine while Ophelia and the rest will defeat the Ashes Witch". Phoebe suggested a plan.
"DIE" - Esserine unstoppably shot out bullets toward everybody.
Adelphia quickly created the 'Magnetic Barrier' to protect others. "If y'all wanna do something, do it quick, follow Phoebe's idea now!". Adelphia was right and a simp.
"Adelphia, Lucas, Olivia, Maria, and Phoebe, y'all stay to stop Esserine". Ophelia commanded like a real leader. "Me, Kayden, and Everado will take care of the Ashes Witch".
"Will we have a chance to win?". Kayden asked curiously.
"No". Ophelia answered hopefully. "We are just buying time for the city policemen to come".
"Then let me open the battle first". Kayden drew out his watery instrument. "Rainstorm".
"Why are you setting such a wet environment?!". Maria angered. "My main attack moves are fire!".
"Then use ice". Ophelia said coldly.
She was kind of right.
Wet environment boosts the nature/plant elemental abilities and it also decreases the effectiveness of Dust type enemies like the Ashes Witch. Plus, Kayden will be boosted overall stats under the raining condition.
"Holy Sword". Everado pulled out a luster blade, he wielded it forward right at the Ashes Witch.
"Grape Vine". Ophelia manipulated nature to tug Esserine aside.
"NO". Esserine screamed.
"Ashes Screen". The Ashes Witch tried to bear the attack from Everado. "You think you can hurt me?".
However, it wasn't just a swordsmanship attack move. It is the blessed sword of the Light Temple. It deals tremendous damage to evil entities and dark type beings.
"What?!". The Ashes Witch didn't think that her magic would be cracked.
"You've been sleeping for way too long right?". Everado assumed.
The blade pierced through the magic wall.
"Ah". The Ashes Witch howled agonizingly, the slash was too much to endure.
"Mother!". Esserine took out a shadow knife to cut the magic vine. "I'll save you".
"Ice Beam". Maria released her elemental move to freeze Esserine. "Girl, you're injured".
"No mother!". Even with half of the frozen body, Esserine still tried to crawl toward the Ashes Witch. "Sable: Sentry Form". She let her weapon automatically take care of Maria.
"Ice Pillar". With the rainy support, the icy pillar was created quicker than the firing speed of bullets. "Not too bad". Maria commented.
"Heavy Smash". Lucas jumped up high and was about to land on the Sable Sentry.
"Energetic Shield". Phoebe ordered her technologic system to form an electric force around Lucas.
"What am I doing here?". Olivia smacked her forehead with her palm. "I can't even fight".
"You could try to talk to Esserine". Adelphia gave Olivia an idea. "Maybe she would wake up by listening to her friend's voice".
"Okay". Oliva got it. "Esserine!! Your childhood crush wants to invite you to his party".
"What?!". For a second, Esserine was back to normal, then became the white eyes version again.
"It works". Olivia was joking but didn't think that it would be effective.
While Olivia is trying to convince Esserine to wake up, Phoebe and Lucas have already discharged the Sentry.
"She has been staying in the sealed gemstone for too long". Ophelia cheered everyone up. "Her ancient power is reduced largely".
"Sharp Water Waves". Kayden blew out a few watery waves to the Ashes Witch.
"AAAAAHHHH". The Ashes Witch was lying on the ground screaming painfully.
"No mother!"
"Guys"
"Mother!"
"These people aren't my enemies"
…
Esserine is in the middle of the road. She is fighting against the charmed side of her. She needs the truth, she wants the truth!
"Sleep Powder". Olivia can't watch Esserine torture herself anymore, she got out her medicine cyst. "Sleep well Esserine, we'll take care of everything".
Esserine's transformation faded away, it seems like she's in deep slumber.
"Phoebe and Olivia, you two take care of her". Adelphia flew straight to Ophelia. "I'll help people to take down the Ashes Witch".
"ASHES COFFIN". The Ashes Witch called out the ashes and dust to cover around her body. The next second when she steps out, all her wounds are gone.
"I'm done playing games". The Ashes Witch enraged. "Death in the Air". She spread the dusty clouds fully in the room.
"I can't breathe". Maria said hardly. "I don't want to die!".
"Let me borrow some time". Kayden stopped the rainstorm and started to play a lively melody. "This is an incantation of ocean vital blessings". He explained. "I am an immortal one, I will not die, so let me share my life to y'all".
"Even if you survive after this, you'll still be terribly sick!". Ophelia uttered. "Healing Forest". She created an alleviate viridescent field. "If we die together, then let me serve for the one last time".
"Purify!" - A sudden wave of light crashed into the room, it wiped out the deadly fog of the Ashes Witch.
Everyone now can breathe normally.
"We're saved". Olivia spoke exhaustedly.
"Dr. Burggraf, the troop, and other professors are here". Phoebe pointed at the group of the people next to the entrance of the room.
"Let's arrest that evil thang!". Mr. Ellis held up his fists. "Don't worry Lucas, you're safe now".
"More stuff to toy with". The Ashes Witch laughed wickedly. "Ha ha ha ha ha ha, this is so fun!".
"It's time to return to the Abyssal Lord". A spacial cut appeared behind the Ashes Witch. "Come, now".
"The Headless Dark Knight!". The Ashes Witch turned her head 180 degrees immediately. "I thought you were dead?!".
"The Lost Saintess has resurrected me". The man in dark steel armour informed the Ashes Witch unhurriedly.
"Light Cluster". Dr. Burggraf took her chance to damage two enemies at a time.
"Phew, that was close!". The Ashes Witch sighed. When the dust faded away, everyone literally could see a great shield was setting in front of the Ashes Witch.
"Now return, I'll take care of the rest". The Headless Dark Knight stated.
"Light Cluster was one of my strongest attacks, how can they withstand such a holy hit?!". Dr. Burggraf commented.
"See ya". The Ashes Witch walked into the abyssal portal.
"Bye". The Headless Dark Knight replied.
"Heeya!". Mr. Ellis rushed toward the Headless Dark Knight with his proudful physical strength. "Take this".
"Eternal Torment". The Headless Dark Knight swung his great sword. A burst of dark damage magic was released. Everyone was pushed into the wall and most of them fainted away.
"Huh. Pathetic creatures!". The Headless Dark Knight put the sword away. Then he came back to where he was from and the portal closed by itself.
