《Empress' Evolution》37. Blood Moon
Advertisement
"Hello."
"What are you doing here?"
"Isn't that obvious? We want you to pay for the damages with your life."
Lilith looked at the Pixie Lord scowling at her and Chief. She showed him a mockingly wide smile.
"What? Are you at a loss of word?"
"Hmph, what utter nonsense are you spouting? Even if I am at lost for words, that would not be because of your stupidity to challenge me but because of the cowards that decided to surrender at the back of your little group."
Eyeing the group of Pixies behind the Ogres, the Pixie Lord made the underlings tremble. The Pixie Lord is known for his decisiveness as he even killed his wife when she refused to take her daughter into a sacrifice.
It was said that the Mother Tree was in a state of silence and the entire Pixie Tribe was grieving for some time, but then, the Pixie Lord implemented a rule that created the current makeshift army of today.
The daemons, more importantly, the Pixies who were not that attuned to fighting and violence found forming an army rather hard, so it was not so much of a surprise when the army they created turned out to be weak.
"Bah, what bullshit are you spouting now. Okay, listen to me are you really saying those lines? It seems like you're not that good at ruling over your own kind, but don't worry, once this oaf replaces you, everything will be fine. So, can you please roll over and die now?"
Lilith scoffed after hearing his words.
"Chief, take his head for me."
"With pleasure, you dastardly Priestess."
She tapped Chief's head with her hands and then Chief kicked the ground and darted up to the Pixie Lord who was still looking down upon the Ogres and Pixies alike.
Boom!
The ground crumbled as Chief disappeared, and Lilith was left on the way. The Pixie Lord swayed to the side as Chief swung his sword.
In the world of daemons, courtesy was not often found. If one wished to gain supremacy over the other, one must challenge the other to combat. The Chiefs or the Leaders would duke it out in order to know who's stronger, that was the ways of lower-tiered daemons.
Epic-tiered included.
As for Legendary-tiered, no one really knows.
[Pixie Lord LVL ???]
Attribute: Wind (S)
HP: 15000/15000
MP: 20000/20000
The Pixie Lord was strong, but Lilith couldn't exactly see his stats so this was the best she could do. Seeing their HP bar and MP bar was enough for her to gauge how strong the Pixie Lord really was.
'In VIT he has 750 points and in MAG it's 1000 points. That's rather impressive, it completely overshadows my MP.'

Lilith knew MAG stats far more than she should know. The MAG stat was used to manipulate the element, her MP, the power of the spell, and even the flow of MP in the body. Despite everything else, MAG may very well be one of the most versatile stats that could be boosted.
If the MAG stats of the Pixie Lord is at 1000 points, then, Chief must have at least 900 STR stats in order to match her.
[Chief (Ogre Berserker) LVL ???]
Attribute: Earth, Fire
HP: 20000/20000
MP: 10000/10000
The other stats couldn't be seen despite them being teammates and Lilith found that really annoying, but right now, the only thing she could do now was one of the things in life she does not practice — having faith.
Boom!
Swoosh!
The fight of the two chiefs raged on without stopping. Everyone was silent as the wind picked up, as the setting sun made the sky bleed, the world in front of everyone began to change.
It was now a battle for domination.
"Wind Bullets!"
The ever so calm Pixie Lord rose up the air, he gathered wind on his palms and shot it towards Chief.
The ever so gallant warrior Chief just stared at the bullets with a face devoid of fear. He gripped his sword, planted his foot to the ground, and then his strength exploded!
"Earthen Might!"
Yellow light enveloped Chief, and as his body began to tremble due to excitement, the wind bullets were destroyed.
"Get down here, you coward! Earthen Weight!"
"What!?"
The Pixie Lord felt his weight increased dramatically. Though this was the downgraded version of the Colossal Weight, this spell was still useful as it was thought by the Priestess.
Having known what was to come, Lilith already planned everything, she thought Chief a single spell, a weight manipulation spell. Thankfully he had the attribute of earth or this would have been much harder.
With the added weight of the Pixie Lord, flying became a hassle and a problem. He plummeted to the ground, but he gathered wind to support him.
Chief dashed forward, his intention was to kill the Pixie Lord in one fell swoop. But as the Pixie Lord went spiraling to the ground, a green scythe appeared on the hands of the Pixie Lord!
"Wind Scythe!"
Slash!
A single sword slash was unleashed towards Chief. A sharp wind blade flew towards Chief, his eyes shifted towards the Ogres and the wind blade. He could easily dodge it, but the Ogres and the others were behind him.
'I need to block!'
"You idiot! Go for the bastard, I'll protect everyone!"
Lilith's shout echoed throughout the plains where the two leaders fought for the glory of their Tribes.

This was a winner takes all kind of scenario. Thus, Lilith would not let any kind of unknown variable interfere.
Chief dodged the wind blade as he saw the fierce and determined eyes of Lilith. He nodded his head and got out of the way.
This wind blade was coming for the Ogres, the two Shamans that remained with Lilith stepped forward. Both their attributes were darkness, they were not that attuned to defensive skills, but their help would suffice if they cast the right skills.
"Grasps of the Swamp!"
"Grasps of the Swamp!"
Dozens of hand-like things appeared from the ground, it sped its way towards the oncoming wind blade and tried grabbing it.
This spell was used to ensnare a target, but it could also be used like this!
The spell began to take form and grabbed the wind blade only to be cut into pieces moments later. But still, the spell managed to stop it for like a second giving Lilith enough time to cast the spell she needed.
Using the two elements, wind and earth, Lilith cast two spells in succession!
"Earth Wall! Wind Shield!"
Two spells were cast, and Lilith felt her world turning. This was her first time using two skills at once from different attributes. It pushed her mental capacity to its limit, but as she held on, Lilith roared!
BooM!
The wind scythe first hit the Earth Wall first which was torn to pieces like a sheet of paper.
'Dammit, this is stronger than I thought!' Lilith didn't expect it to be so strong, but she was not going to just give up. Using most of her MP to strengthen the skill she had just used!
The sharpness of the wind began to become deadlier and when it met with the wind blade, her Wind Shield scattered like it was a spider web!
'Shit!'
Lilith's eyes were in despair, then, in a moment brought by instinctive life preservation, Lilith changed into the Nightmare Dragonkin in a split second and then spark!
The defensive scales of the dragonkin provided DEF stats over 300, far more than what a Two Horns had.
Using the thick skull characteristic of the Nightmare Dragonkin, Lilith headbutted the Wind Scythe.
The Wind Scythe sliced through her skin and caused blood to spurt. But, it didn't slash through the thick skull of the Nightmare Dragonkin.
"Ugh!"
"Priestess!" Everyone was alarmed about her situation!
"Get the fuck away!" Lilith disregarded her oh-so-pure image and screamed for the others to stay back.
Redirecting the Wind Scythe, Lilith sent it flying up!
Lilith survived, but a gush of blood appeared on her head and as it did so, Lilith's mind wandered! And yet she still did her best to look at the fight going on dozens of meters away from her.
What occurred around her was not something that happened for minutes. It was a mere two seconds, that was all that it took for so many things to happen simultaneously.
Chief took three steps forward and then clenched his fist. The back of the Pixie Lord was wide open.
BAM!
He planted his feet on the ground and caused it to tremble...
"Break!"
Chief swung his fist and hit the side of the Pixie Lord, sounds of bones breaking exploded echoed for everyone to hear.
"Ack!"
Boom!
The Pixie Lord was sent flying away, sprawled on the ground, twitching as he failed to exhibit the strength and nimbleness he previously showed.
[Pixie Lord LVL ???]
Attribute: Wind (S)
HP: 1248/15000
MP: 3145/20000
'He's going to die.' Lilith finally showed a grim smirked.
As Chief walked slowly to the sprawled body of the Pixie Lord, Lilith could feel her grasps on the Forest of Beast increasing.
"Something's wrong!"
Lilith's eyes twitched as the number on the Pixie Lord's status began to rise.
[Pixie Lord LVL ???]
Attribute: Wind (S)
HP: 1248/15000 + 5000 = 6248/20000 – 100, 6148/20000 – 100, 6048/20000
MP: 3145/20000 + 5000 = 6145/25000
Honggg!!!!
"Chief! Lookout!"
But it was too late.
-5000MP
"Wind Scythe!"
Blood gushed out as a deep wound appeared from the waist all the way to the shoulder of Chief.
Lilith looked up, the moon seemed like it was bleeding.
'This is what the Pixie Lord must have been waiting for, a Red Moon.' Lilith was alarmed, he turned his head around and checked if the Pixies experienced the change as well, thankfully, they didn't.
'This must the perk of a Pixie Lord. Chief, come on, you can do it. Wait, what is the Pixie Lord doing!?'
Lilith's eyes widened, as the Pixie Lord rose to the air and watched him escape.
"He's escaping!? Haha, Chief won this one!"
"Haha, he must have been scared of Chief!"
"All hail Chief~"
Every single Ogre was celebrating, that is except for Lilith whose brain was processing every possibility and as she realized what's going on, she screamed out loud.
"KILLA! RETURN! RETURN TO THE VILLAGE, THAT BASTARD WANTS SYLVA!"
Lilith realized one integral factor, the hastiness of the Pixies and the desperation of the Pixie Lord trying everything to get to the Village.
Only now did Lilith realize what is happening.
The Red Moon and Sylva are the two ingredients for the Pixie Lord to evolve to a Legendary-tier.
'If that bastard evolves, he'll wipe us out! Tsk, I wish this backup plan works!'
