Chapter 35 Evolved Scorpion!
“You talk too much for an old lady.” [Stab!]
“Huh?” Niruha was caught off guard. Tasting an excessive build-up of iron in her mouth, she glanced down at her chest where she noticed a burning sword poking through. “How…?” Niruha bent her head to its utmost limit, looking behind her at the unexpected silhouette who impaled her chest. “You are…?”
“Shhh. Go to hell now.” [Whoosh!] As the searing sword pulled out of Niruha’s chest, a fountain of blood started spraying out of her apertures followed by painful screams.
“Kyaaaaaah!”
“Huh, mommy?” This resounding cry was what awoke Tainted Scorpion from her hysterical state. She glanced ahead of her where she witnessed her mother falling to the ground with a gaping hole in her chest.
“Mommy!” Tainted Scorpion rushed over to support her collapsed mother. She watched as Niruha choked on her own blood which gradually led to her breathing her last breath.
“No! No! No! Don’t die yet! Mommy, please get up! Please! How can I get my revenge if you die now? Mommy!”
“Why are you crying? You should be happy that I cut that bitch up for you.”
“Happy!” Anna glared at the person who had just spoken. “Crimson Scorpion… why did you kill her? She was my prey. She was supposed to die by my hands.”
“Fu-hu!” Crimson Scorpion chortled then said: “Why did I kill your mother? This is obviously payback for snatching away my target at the safe house. Because you claimed the rewards of the contract that I did all the work on, I lost face among my peers. There was no way I was going to let you off so easily. And by god’s intervention, I stumbled over an image of a woman who looks exactly like you while I was searching through classified files concerning the Demon Triad.
You think I made you aware of her existence because we’re buddies? Don’t be ridiculous. I planned on letting your mother live a while longer so she could torment you some more, but after noticing her change of heart, additionally growing tired of her incessant chatter, I felt compelled to shut the pregnant bitch up. So how does it feel losing a love one, Tainted Scorpion? I know you didn’t like her very much but still, she was your mother; carrying your little sister no less. Fu-hu-hu!”

While Crimson Scorpion enjoyed the despairing expression being painted on Anna’s face, the Demon’s Head who had his balls knocked unconscious, started waking up. When he crawled out of the crater and saw the state of his baby mother, he fell into a building trance of rage.
“NOOOOO! Tainted Scorpion! How dare you kill my woman and my child! I’m gonna rip your legs apart and stuff them both into your stinking vagina!” [Bulge! Bulge! Bulge!] The angry Demon’s Head exceeded the compatible limit of his Psionic Demon. Due to this, his entire swollen complex transformed into a 24-foot tall raging bull!
“Woah! That’s dangerous. Look out behind you Tainted Scorpion.” Seeing the raging red bull charging towards Anna, Crimson Scorpion hurriedly utilized her Hell Evade to teleport to safety.
“MOOOOOOO!” [Whoosh!] A massive Demon Beast Bomb shot out of the bull’s mouth.
Crimson Scorpion who was watching from a safe distance saw that Tainted Scorpion wasn’t doing anything to dodge the attack. “Why is she still sulking over her dead mother? Can’t she see that she is in grave danger? Should I help her escape? No! No! What the hell am I saying? What do I care if that tainted bitch perishes here? I would only be getting rid of a thorn in my side.”
Neither Crimson Scorpion nor the Rampaging Bull Demon was aware that Tainted Scorpion wasn’t just sitting there doing nothing. It was safe to say that Tainted Scorpion herself was unaware of what was happening to her body.
Witnessing her mother’s death triggered an emotional agony in her head the likes of which she had never experienced before. As a result, the Gold Psionic Scorpion which laid dormant in her cerebral flesh for years finally awoken, moreover, it began merging with the Black Psionic Scorpion which was already active.
After both Psionic Scorpions started coagulating, a build-up of mystical energy began oozing out of Tainted Scorpion’s wounded complex. Her eyeball which had been gouged out coupled with her chews off ear was quickly regenerating. Not only was her body revitalizing but a golden swerve of tainted energy was manifesting around her. Golden veins surfaced all over Anna’s body. 4 dark limbs burst out of her posterior. These newly manifested limbs lashed out at the massive Demon Beast Bomb that was about to crash into her.

[Boom!] After capturing the Demon Beast Bomb, Tainted Scorpion slowly rose to her feet without shifting her gave on the oversize bull demon. The only thing that came out of her mouth was
“Die” [Boom!] Her materialized limbs redirected the Demon Beast Bomb at the raging bull. The Demon’s Head got bombarded by its own vicious attack, causing him along with his Psionic Demon to perish into oblivion.
“What the hell just happened?” Crimson Scorpion who witnessed the swift defeat of the Demon’s Head suffered amazed bewilderment. “Tainted Scorpion that girl… she’s changed. Huh?”
Crimson Scorpion felt an alarming presence when her eyes met with Anna’s Gold Spiral Gaze! “Shit!” [Boom!] She evaded the threatening gaze, however, she wasn’t unscathed. Her right arm got twisted off into oblivion. “Oh! Shit! What the hell was that attack? It took my entire arm! If I didn’t dodge when I did, it would have been my head!”
[Whoosh!] While Crimson Scorpion was racking her mind, trying to figure out the anomaly which abducted her arm, she felt the air density around her shifting to a diabolical state. “She’s coming for me!”
[Poof!] Crimson Scorpion used her Hell Evade again to teleport high up into the air. Looking down at the area where she had just vanished from, she noticed a gaping hole appeared there with spiral patterns. Seconds later, Tainted Scorpion was standing in that very spot.
“Die! Die! Die!” Tainted Scorpion could sense that Crimson Scorpion was close by. She glanced above then kicked off from the ground. [Boom!]
“Shit! Shit! Shit! This bitch actually wants to end my spiteful life! I won’t be an easy catch!” Perceiving the incoming threat to her existence, Crimson Scorpion shifted her infernal Psionic Scorpion into overdrive. [Hell Evade! Hell Evade! Hell Evade!]
“Die!” Currently, this was the only word in Tainted Scorpion’s twisted vocabulary. Her mind was taken over by her conflicting Psionic Scorpions. She was being driven by their uncontrollable thirst to kill. “Die! Die!”
Tainted Scorpion was madly leaping from building to building, trying to get a hold of Crimson Scorpion but she was quickly losing sight of her fleeing target. Crimson Scorpion was using her Hell Evade non-stop to get as far away as possible from her oppressor. Her destination was of course Mt Venom. She planned on seeking refuge from Tainted Scorpion’s wrath at Master Odok’s shrine.
“I’m not letting you catch up to me!” [Hell Evade! Hell Evade! Hell Evade!]
“Die!” Tainted Scorpion was falling too far behind. To compensate for her lack of mobility, the pair of limbs protruding her back started breaking apart. Their separation transformed into four Arcane Wings! [Fwoosh! Fwoosh!]
“The hell? That bitch can fly now! This is way too unfair? Why is her character so overpowered?” Crimson Scorpion was malcontent with how the author made her look like a weakling when compared to Tainted Scorpion. “Of course I am! Where is my plot armour?”

Pink Mage
There are many types of Mages; The Arcane Mages stuck in their towers studiously dedicated to magic and understanding, The Elemental Mages the most powerful and versatile branch, and finally the color mages who are a potent mix of the two. Of the color Mages, there are the primary Red, Blue, Yellow the rare White, Black, Infrared, and Ultraviolet the legendary Gamma and Beta, and finally there are the secondary colors, also known as the mixs Green, Brown, Orange, Purple, and finally Pink. Updates will be sporadic based on inspiration and motivation. Warning: I am a lazy uninspired individual so ya... So the inspiration for this is how everyone online is always a carry or assassin and nobody plays support classes to help the team. Also, there have been studies that the "support" roles at work in RL never get recognition for keeping the company cogs greased and turning. It's always the "top" [employee title] and the extra stuff people do to keep the business running is never appreciated. So I decided to wright Pink Mage. He is a support, though he has spells so he isn't a [Support] and incapable of defending himself. None of the classes are completely useless in a fight or without proper application. But the [Pink Mage] class is bugged so that there is no way to gimp the system to legendary status. All the other Solo legends can... well... Solo, but a [Legendary Pink Mage] can't solo, period. Sure he could cast a mix of spells so that an army is basically chickens on the chopping block but he would still have to go out there and gut them with a knife one by one. I don't own the title image, It was grabbed from public domain. Warning: the content warnings are real, though the content warned of is sporadic. I don't try to right that content specifically but Micky's life won't shy away from it! So yeah, rating R... Note: This is neither a 'Feel Good' or a 'Tragedy' and doesn't have those tags for a reason. This is the 'Real' biography and adventurers of the MC as I see the fantasy universe. So it is neither going to have extra lucky encounters or terrible ones (Except there will be, because you know, story.)
