《Empress' Evolution》99. Kind and Merciful
Advertisement
A few days after the fight against the Two Heads, Lilith was busily sorting through the Store.
'Hmm, I wonder, will I trigger a mutation if I eat a Dragon's Heart?'
She had her eyes on the Dragon Heart, but her System Points were only a meager 534,780, and there were many more necessary objects for her to buy.
'...I am so bored.' Lilith currently had nothing to do.
But all the while she was leisurely reclining alone in her Temple, a shadow came from outside. Lilith sighed and straightened her sitting position, "What is it, Luna?"
"Um... I think it would be best if the Priestess steps outside to see for yourself."
Hearing Luna's confusion, Lilith raised a brow and exited the Temple, and her eyes quickly widened as she did so.
"What is happening?" Lilith asked, sporting a confused expression.
She was in front of the Temple with the rest of the villagers. That alone would not be weird, but adding the fact that several hundred Werewolves were kneeling before her was something new even for her.
"I have seen your determined heart and quick thinking; I cannot think of any other daemon who can lead my Tribe and me to a better future. My job as the leader stem from the fact that I need to lead our pact to a better life, and I can see our future being in your hands, Priestess." The Werewolf Leader spoke with pure intentions.
An inner smile blossomed, 'Good.'
Lilith stood tall on the steps of her Temple, her feet left the ground, and then she asked the bowing Wolves, "My level is lower than yours. I am quite frankly weaker than you are. But, you Leader, however, sees me as someone capable of commanding and leading you Tribe to a better life — I shall accept but not at the cost of anyone's willingness, to those who are undecided and unwilling to follow me, stand up and face me!"
"Priestess, we—"
The Werewolf Leader tried to interject; however, Lilith looked her in the eyes and then heard the loli Priestess speak, "Sister, if you truly wish to accept me as your Leader, then speak no further. I, Lilith Qurenara, wish to honor your traditions and culture. Thus, if any one is unwilling to follow me, then stand up or forever hold the fact that you are cowards who cannot even face someone of my level!"

Lilith's words pierced the hearts of many Werewolves. One, two, three, seven, and twenty-six Werewolves stood up.
Their levels ranging from 170 to 205 — they were all stronger than the Priestess hovering in the air.
The Werewolf Leader turned to see the unwilling Tribe Members. Most of them were newly healed Elite Warriors who didn't fight in the eradication of the Two Heads.
The Werewolves saw her disbelief and quickly announced, "I apologize, Leader, but I cannot see the greatness you speak of in this child. She had challenged us, and I feel like I can now announce the emotions welling up in my Warrior's Heart."
That Warrior turned to Lilith once again, "Lilith Qurenara, the Priestess, I accept your challenge!"
With a simple explanation and an acceptance of the challenge, more and more Werewolves shouted to accept the challenge. Lilith smiled at the sight of so many opponents.
"To those who accepted the challenge, I can say that you are looking down on me, correct? Hahaha, how fun this is. It had been a while since I got to play. However, our Village has yet to create a single Arena; thus, I must invite you all to follow me out of the Village where we can fight."
Lilith's words were inconsistent. At one point, she seemed like a child who wanted nothing more than to play, and on the other, she was someone who respected their aged-old traditions.
Most of the daemons present took note of this and registered it as the Priestess showing her age, but to those disrespected, they began to feel irritated, and this fight seemed more justifiable in their minds than before.
They exited the Village, and on the clearing that separated the Forest and them, Lilith stood in front of more than twenty Werewolves.
"Is this really the only group that wants to challenge me? Hmmm…" Lilith began to think, and then she landed on the ground; she showed them an innocent smile, "this should be enough as a handicap."
Her words grated the challengers' ears, 'I am going to enjoy watching her cry!' they thought, seeing how much this child was looking down upon them.

Killa went ahead and presented himself as the officiator of this fight. He began announcing the rules of this bout, "No killing, no crippling, no…"
The Villager listened to his words and began to smile.
Dhampy, who had returned from escorting the Dwarves, was seated before the Shadow Troops and the Army, "Watch this fight closely. This will let you know how to use your minds in a fight. Though you do not have an ounce of the Priestess' genius, watch and observe her to see if you can pick anything up."
"YES!" The loud answers of the Army echoed while the Shadow Troops kept silent in the shadows.
"Eve, make sure to record the fight."
"Yes, Big Sis." Eve appeared next to Dhampy.
Luna had Cerberus in her embrace. She found Cerberus' fleshy body pleasant to the touch, so she had it with her frequently. Cerberus was asleep like always. It couldn't care less.
The Werewolf Leader was baffled by their calm demeanor. She turned to Luna for answers, "Why are you so calm? Are you not worried about your Priestess? Is she not the supporter and strategist? How do you expect her to fight?"
Luna turned to her and simply smiled because the one who answered was Chief, who appeared all of a sudden from behind, "Do you think the Priestess is incapable of fighting? Huh, well, that is how it may seem to outsiders, but to everyone, the Priestess is far from being incapable of fighting. There is a reason why she is confident in fighting on the frontlines. She may have taken the role of an Active Support against the Two Heads, but believe me when I say this. The Priestess is not someone you look down upon in a fight."
Disregarding the fact that the Werewolf Leader's fur all stood up as Chief talked to her, she remembered the detail that Killa boasted about Lilith, 'The Priestess was someone who went into the frontlines and fought without fear —' recounting the words, she now grew curious as to what might happen.
Killa finished reciting the words and then, shouted "FIGHT!"
The Werewolves moved with their fangs out and claws extended out, Lilith stood there observing them, and as the circling Werewolves pounced at her, she didn't move and instead used ninety percent of her mana to cast a [Free Skill] utilizing the knowledge she had of an active spell, "Multiple Earth Walls!"
With Lilith as its heart, stone slabs that were one meter wide and three meters tall appeared sporadically yet circular in formation.
'Seventeen... lucky' Lilith smiled at this result.
The Werewolves were startled, but they quickly recovered and just moved around the walls. However, Lilith saw them and promptly used the five percent of her remaining ten percent to utilize the Nature Element and have the weeds grow taller.
This impeded the Werewolves' vision, but it didn't matter as they already got Lilith's scent. They weaved around the stone slabs as they moved through tall weeds.
However, as they reached Lilith three meters away, they saw a bright red-orange light igniting the weeds into a might blaze!
Every Werewolf fighting the Priestess howled in pain as their furs got caught in a fire.
All of them were in pain, and as they got distracted, the sound of a Thunder Clap echoed.
Using their screams to locate them, Lilith, who was now a Tribulation Leopard, sunk her fangs on their shoulders, then incapacitating them with an electric shock before moving to the next target with fast movement using Lightning Feet.
The scream of pain echoed from the Werewolves — the Werewolf Leader watched as Lilith dominate the elite warriors she was so proud of, "What kind of being is she?" she asked without knowing.
"She's our kind and merciful, Priestess, who leads our way of living," Luna answered with a smile.
Werewolf Leader looked ahead and watched Lilith's domination and then thought to herself, 'I don't know about kind and merciful... but she's indeed a Priestess capable of leading.'
