Chapter 135: Adriana Vs The Monkeys
"It was a good idea to invite Adriana." Aur's crimson pupil flickered with a strange light.
A smug smile formed on Adriana's face as she looked at Aur, coming close to him and whispering into her ears.
"Look how powerful I am." She said with a smirk and walked forward in the darkness.
Aur was just silent as he followed her obediently, his expression impassive. What he was thinking in his mind, no one could tell.
Just like that, Adriana fried all the monkeys as easily as she was frying bacon, and the burnt meat's smell constantly wafted into Aur's nose.
"How much mana does this woman have?" Aur thought in disbelief.
He barely could conjure ten spells of fireball much weaker than hers and run out of mana already, despite him not focusing on the fire element much. Aur still had some comprehension of it.
But these women had already used the fireball at least twenty times without stopping even one bit.
In this part, Aur could only despair. "Is this the difference between a wizard apprentice and tier one wizard?"
Since the mana that a tier one and a tierless wizard apprentice use were inherently different, however, the mental storage where it is stored in was the same and could never be increased, as per Aur's understanding and the common knowledge of the world.
The colorless mana changes into blue mana from the mental space, making it more potent and stronger.
Suddenly, just then, Adriana paused with a grim expression on her face. Aur also immediately paused with a frown on his face.
"Adriana, what happened?" Aur asked tentatively.
"There is an army of monkeys ahead." Adriana's expression gradually turned serious with her pupils flickering, looking ahead.
Aur also looked ahead silently. The shadows of countless monkeys were visible to his eyes.
"One, two…. Ten…" Aur's eyes widened as he counted the number of monkeys, with his eyes widening to the limits.
"There are at least a hundred of these." He exclaimed with astonishment.
They were all just silently staring at the two of them with an intelligent glint flashing in their eyes."These monkeys have a little stronger strength than an average human, but this is equivalent to a mortal army." Aur thought with his body trembling.
These trembling wasn't from fear but rather from excitement!
Excitement that seemed to come from his very bottom of the soul, his crimson eyes flashing with a terrifying killing intent.
"Hmm?" Adriana turned to Aur with a frown on her face only to see a smiley face of his.
"Did something happen, Aur?"
"Nothing." Aur just shook his head nonchalantly. "But what should we do of these army, Adriana?"
"Don't worry, I will take care of them."
Adriana said with a smirk on her face, her eyes glinted with numerous spells.
Shing!
A sharp sword sheathing sound echoed as Aur's pupils flickered.
Adriana's two hands have turned into two sharp blades that emitted a terrifying pressure.
However, the small spark of flaming that she used canceled out automatically because of her spell.
"Aur, show me the way. I will kill them all." Adriana looked at Aur, and he nodded his head silently.
"Good." She nodded her head as she charged forward while Aur showed the entire place with his jar where the hope bug was burning.
Immediately, five human-sized monkeys jumped at them almost simultaneously, however, Adriana was undeterred, casually slashing her right blade.
A terrifying wind slash was produced, decapitating the heads of the four monkeys in one go.
Their heads fell to the floor with a sickening thud, creating a pool of blood.
Aur's eyes narrowed seeing this.
"Let's hurry, Aur."
"Yes."
Aur walked forward.
There were no surprises. No matter how many monkeys came, Adriana swiftly decapitated them in just a slash of her blade that grew from her hand as if it was the very part of her body since she was born.
Even if some monkeys got too close to her, a fireball would instantly materialize the moment she glanced, frying the brain of the monkey in an instant.
Very soon, only thirty or so monkeys were left with brutal slaughter from Adriana.
Just then, a loud screech of a monkey resounded in the place.
Aur showed the light in the direction of the roar, faintly revealing a large monkey with red fur and a distinctive golden tail, different from the other monkeys.
"You dare invade my place, humans." Vaan said in a loud roar, his eyes glinting with a fierce light.
Aur backstepped seeing this with a nervous expression on his face.
Adriana just chuckled while putting a hand on his shoulder.
"Don't worry, kid. I am here. Not a single hair of yours can be touched. You did well to invite me. If it were the others…" She said while shaking her head.
"Huh." Aur was stunned. However, Adriana didn't give him a chance to speak as she charged forward with a sneer on her face.
"A mere monkey dares to stand before me." She shouted while slashing with her two blades.
Immediately, two wind slashes were produced, directly launching towards Vaan.
Vaan immediately tried to escape; however, strangely, whenever he changed direction, the wind followed him.
"This…"
Swish!
Vaan looked at his furry chest with a fierce expression, blood dripping to the floor.
The wind slashes penetrated its strong pelt and made a thick slash against his skin, almost reaching his heart instantly.
Vaan could even see the internal organs from the cut part that was threatening to come out from the 6-inch-thick wound.
"You are dead, little monkey." Adriana said with a sneer.
"Who are you calling little monkeys, humans?" Vaan punched with his full power, causing even the ground to tremble.
However, Adriana was unfazed, charging forward heroically, meeting the fist of Vaan with her blades.
Shing!
Vaan roared in pain, blood gushing profusely from his severed right hand. The other part of his hand fell to the floor in a gruesome sight.
