《Empress' Evolution》41. Kristina
Advertisement
Werewolves, were beings of the night and the daydreams of teenage girls. They rule the night as a lycanthrope and the day as superhumans, they were beings to be trifled with.
Lilith, a loli, a tiny leopard, and an oversized lizard; she’s the Priestess of the Ogres and a part leader of the Pixie, Ogre Union. She rule over the hearts of many, and scares no one other than the four Ogre lackeys (bodyguards), namely Eve, Luck, Scarface, and Killa; she was someone that could be killed easily given the right situations.
However, at this moment, Lilith looked down upon the oh-so-powerful Werewolves.
In a clearing where they were enclosed in a circular treeline, two groups met. One was a group of masculine Ogres and one particular loli and a Blood Lord. As for the other group, it was a group of injured werewolves consisted of the young, women, and the elderly.
'Sigh, it seems like it was a good choice not to bring the group with me.' Lilith at first was hesitant to come here without protection of the army, the Werewolves were fierce adversaries. Add her cultivated hate against wolves you would get Lilith’s desire to kill the WereWolves she so loathed.
She was about to give the order of eradication when someone intervened.

Do you accept the Mission? Y/N?
Of course, she decided to accept the mission.
‘The Rewards is too good to pass… you guys get to live.’
Before Lilith got to where they were, the Werewolves had already been given food by Killa and Chief.
Without red blurring her views on the Werewolves, Lilith observed them calmly and finally noticed how they were riddled with injuries, most of which were scratches, while some rather severe cuts.
The Pixies already helped them apply salve to their injuries to ease the pain.
The Pixies thought that doing such a good thing would be appreciated by their “magnanimous and kind” Priestess.
The Pixies wanted to please the Priestess who had been spending a lot of time trying to make their living easier.

‘Let us help them in the name of the Priestess, she’s someone kind and prepared to lady down her life for others... she would want us to do it!’ such were the thoughts of the Pixies who had been supported by several Ogres.
Going back to the sort of an asshole Lilith, her cold stone heart felt something for the Kin of his archenemies — sympathy.
'Most of these guys are only puppies, and their leader is a woman with one arm, that's neat. I don't even want to kill them — and I hate wolves.' Lilith looked at them, she sighed at their pitiful sight but didn't show anything on the outside.
Silently, she was observing them carefully. The Werewolves were shaking, most probably of hunger, their lips were dried and despite the salve the injured amongst them were still bleeding.
'This is a mess.'
While in deep thought, the one-armed leader knelt down before Lilith and the others.
"The Strong Ogres, please, give us a place to stay to treat our injured; we will give you anything in return if you give us a place to stay." She begged.
"Healing Light."
Before anyone could even say a word, Lilith already cast a skill; the Healing Light that had improved after Lilith's Light attribute reached A-tier.
The Healing Light took 70% of Lilith's MP, and although it was not enough to heal them completely, it was good enough to save those at Death's door.
The Werewolves marveled at her magic.
"T-thank you oh kind one."
"Thank me not for this act of kindness is but a mission given to me by the Goddess Letza."
"The Goddess Letza?"
Lilith was about to speak when she stumbled and almost fell to her face, sending the Ogres into a panic.
"Priestess! Are you alright?"
It was Eve and Dhampy who was the first get to her. Lilith straightened her body out, she stood before the Werewolves with pride.
She would not falter before Wolves nor anyone else. She already showed that she could be a warrior and a kind hearted leader, she must uphold both at this moment.
These Werewolves would most likely become a part of her village after this act of mercy; thus, the pecking order must be established quickly.
"I am fine, as for your question, Chief and the rest would be the one to answer you, I shall retreat for the time being for I have something to do, Dhampy come with me."
Giving the Werewolves one final look of goodbye, Lilith left.

She went to Section 5 and passed the old village of the Ogres. There were no longer intelligent daemons in Section 5, only those who hunt for EXP and meat, and Pixies who decided to help the Ogres haul the haunted beasts.
The rest were in the Neutral Area, trying to build the community with the Pixies.
"Good day, Priestess."
"To you also."
"Ah, Priestess, we caught a lot of beasts today, we even caught wood daemons, do you think the Pixies would like that?"
"I am sure they would keep up the good work."
Lilith's job was to smile and observe others. She was some sort of figurehead that connects the two groups so she had to look nice in front of them.
The Ogres and Pixies were getting together under the banner of the kind Priestess. The two were of different race, but they at least shared the same sentiment towards the Lilith, through this, the two races were actually getting along rather quickly.
But once she sets herself to hunting mode, Lilith would become serious.
Turning into a Thunder Clap Leopard, Lilith kicked the ground, and together with Dhampy, they zoomed out of the others' sight.
'It is time to evolve.' She needed more power now that something unexpected was happening. She needed to become stronger so she could protect herself.
[Mission: Empress' Kingdom (Side-Quest) #2 (non-mandatory) (completed)]
Reward/s: You will be granted quick evolution to every form (acquired).
Bonus reward/s for actually helping them (Goddess; special treat): The EXP you gain will be doubled
Lilith looked at the rewards then laughed; she was going to enjoy this thing to the fullest.
She went into a rampage, every red dot she saw in the minimap would be slain by Lilith. Her lightning claws were sharp, sharper than anything a rare-tier could handle. And with her sharp instincts, her reaction was also superb.
"Gruuu!"
As a wandering Red Centipede crawled about; its red carapace reflected the sun and its killer's lightning.
"Lightning Claws!"
Boom!
Lilith's lightning exploded and the poor centipede has yet to die so she transformed into a Nightmare Dragonkin before killing it with poison.
Ptoo!
She spits at the centipede and it died shortly thereafter.
[Level up]
"Hell yeah!" She punched the skies as she celebrated her victory.
"Congratulations, Boss."
Lilith nodded her head, then she heard Alpha.
[Nightmare Dragonkin LVL 40]
[Thunder Clap Leopard LVL 40]
[Two Horns LVL 40]
'Finally, it is time for my evolution to come to be!' Lilith was happy, too happy that she's practically jumping for joy!
And her attention was drawn to Alpha, like a lover waiting for a gift.
[You have reached the limits of all three forms, the Life Essence you have is sufficient...analyzing the strongest forms you can take...found, choose from the selections — Lilith look out!]
Lilith turned her head, but a blade was already coming for her.
The blade was coated with blue flames, it was hot, and Lilith knew that she would die if she didn't react any faster.
However, she couldn't react at all...
'Oh, shit...I'm going to die...'
Lilith could see it; she was going to die in such a shitty manner. She didn't even die due to suicide like she always wanted, she's going to die because she got snuck up on...and that's her favorite way of killing.
But she was aware, that life's a bitch so, in her heart, she was pretty accepting. But Alpha wasn't and she blaring in Lilith's mind.
'We can't do anything, girl.'
Clang!
But then, a clash between two blades echoed as Dhampy got in between the fight!
The man who attacked Lilith was surprised as a black-cloaked woman stopped his sword.
He jumped back and Lilith finally got a better view of his attacker's visage.
He was a man wearing a suit of white armor with red lines on its edges. He was blond and the sword he was holding was covered with blue flames. A scar on his left cheek could be seen, thus Lilith dubbed him Scarcheek for the time being.
"A daemon wielding a sword? And that sword...where did you get that sword?"
On Dhampy's hands was a black sword, it was the sword given to him by Lilith after her boss killed the Virulent Serpent.
Dhampy looked at Scarcheek and flashed an interesting look.
"Are you a part of Skull Guild? If you are then leave this place."
"Shut up, you fucking daemon! Give me that sword! That’s not yours to wield!"
Scarcheek kicked the ground and went to swing his blazing sword. A fight began between two swordsmen while two kept watching from the background.
One was someone in the shadows while the other was Lilith.
Lilith was still in a daze seemingly thinking about something.
While the other in the shadows was astounded with his eyes widened as he observed Dhampy.
"T-that's Hunter Kristina!"

8 128The Crystern: Heart of Adventures
The Crystern: Heart of Adventure has been dropped out of the Writathon Challenge and placed on hiatus until further notice, in order to better plan out what's happening and to give me time to work on older projects. Fifteen-year-old Skyler Kadrix III wishes to set off on a journey to find the fabled Cyrstern, a skybeast unlike any other and the origin of the Crystals that grant people special abilities, increase their own abilities, and even allow them to gain Experience and Levels. A promise to his mother has kept him from setting off yet, but he's nearly ready to leave. When he meets Finn, who came with his master, the elf Sara, in search of a relic of the Ancients rumored to have been hidden somewhere on their skybeast, Skyler finds his journey beginning sooner than he'd expected. The journey takes the young boys across the sea of clouds, to various skybeasts and adventures. Whether they find the Crystern or not, they don't care as long as they keep moving forward. Posting schedule TBD upon return. The Sexual Content tag is for once the boys are adults, not while they're still minors. Because of this, it will be a fair while before the qualifying content appears in-story.
