Chapter 229 - A Yandere Wife's Spot Can Not Be Taken Away! Deathbringer!
"Why would you kick him so far away?!"
Rosa shouted before disappearing from the couple's sight. All she left was slithering blue specks that quickly dispersed moments after!
Her full speed exposed how serious she was.
It was because the husband seemed really exhausted and even warned about the invader a few times! Rosa didn't dare to question the husband's judgement after his quick strength growth, but there was also no time to waste!
After Rosa passed Xiaoxiao near the start, she unleashed her quick thunder thrust that pierced the dead body heavily. His arm yanked so hard that a small fountain of blood slipped outside yet Rosa wasn't so happy about her feat.
It was because the invader's eyes turned to the side, then hovered on her for a little. Rosa immediately understood that this dead invader was possessed by a high master! Just one glance was enough!
"It is still a mere dead body! You are also… melting!"
The kicked invader began to release more cold mist from his body ever since the connection of the mind world got broken! He felt with his own body how disadvantageous this underground was from him!
Once Rosa's words entered his ears, Lodden lost sight of her body as her fighting style was to continuously torture the opponent with swift sword thrusts or slashes.
But it was just his eyes that lost her.
As Rosa disappeared, Xiaoxiao's charging self filled the gap. Lodden felt the incoming thunder thrust on the same arm while pin-pointing Xiaoxiao's spear thrust! When the flames erupted on her tip, his white lips curled up.
Boom! Boom!
""!""
After the attacks connected, both Rosa and Xiaoxiao could feel that their weapons didn't really sink in. It felt like something hard stopped them causing their expressions to darken. Then, their simulative attack caused a huge explosion of cold mist to appear.
It swallowed Lodden wholly and perfectly hid his body!
The ladies found it extremely hard to find him, but Xiaoxiao's waving spear managed to find some clues!
In the meantime, Kyoya properly raised his body and prepared enough cards.
All those cards were the weapons and things he wanted to use for his advantage in this continent! Never did he think that these would be used on such a strong figure! He also realized that the stairs leading here should be sealed!
"Xaya-"
"I have already sealed the entrance, the husband."
"Ah, that's good…"
His wife worked even faster, so the husband could only sheepishly smile at her. It looked like that as Kyoya should've issued such a command far earlier instead of enjoying his wife's pillows for a little.
He then spoke with his deep voice.
"Look out for our stats, Xaya. It is also a great time to test your shields."
"The filth is only running away for now, the husband. But he can't escape my eyes."
"That's true."
"I think he wants to spread as much cold mist as possible and then somehow escape through my shield!"
Xaya used her shield to seal the entrance here. It was layer after layer of her new ability and it truly looked sturdy! She then said her thoughts out loud!
All of this made the husband just nod and nod with a faint blush appearing on his face.
"Thanks, Xaya. Since you can see him, just keep his location on the minimap. We all share the game system here."
"Yes, the husband!"
"As I said, it is a good time to use your shield in real battle, so go for it. If he comes closer to the entrance, then put everything here. I will be also by your side to protect you."
"Ah, stupid husband."
The husband promised and then rushed to help his close ones! He didn't hear the last words escaping his wife's lips as he was eager to be next to Xiaoxiao who was fighting together with Rosa.
But since he had fire cards now, shouldn't he just use these on the underground and increase the hotness here?
Xaya wanted to tell this to her husband, but he just rushed forth thinking that their plan was already set! His goal was to tear through every ice obstacle and then slap the dead body with his cards!
"Even the husband's card would be enough to stop his mist from spreading… Ah, stupid, stupid."
Xaya played with her long hair while pointing Lodden's location on the minimap.
She also used her new shield from afar like mage. It only happened after Lodden tried to use his dead body for some sneaky attacks, but Xaya was just a higher race from a higher world.
She effortlessly could locate him and predict his next moves, so Kyoya and the rest began to slowly dictate the escape route for Lodden!
And this escape route was leading to his end!
One could say that combination of the four was superb and their trust was on another level. Lodden's experience, the environment and his dead body could do nothing despite his stronger skills.
The escape route was clearly sealed for him! It was another adventure where the husband stood above others so Xaya's heart was beating with pride yet she felt somewhat lost. It wasn't because the situation was too easy, but because she truly could see everything going on.
It wasn't only the shield that helped the husband, but his party used their weapons in both defense and offensive. It was so obvious, but when Xaya saw their small exchanges after each successful action, her heartbeat simply increased!
A smile, a small eye contact and even a little touch could convey way more than Xaya wanted! So what if she could just send a message through the game system? It would be just mere letters that couldn't compare to aforementioned at all!
Xaya's mind then shook with a memory she had long ago forgotten. Of course, it was sometimes reminded by the husband, but Xaya never paid any attention to it. After all, how could someone else show her path?
[Deathbringer.]
But as Xaya began to seek more than just a support, the word from one of the gods continued to echo within her mind. Even the game system exploded with this sentence and wrote it in unusual letters that Xaya wasn't aware of.
However, she could tell what it was!
Furthermore, the game system that consisted of both divine energies began to lose one of these. The Trickster God's divine energy just got swallowed up by Xaya's divine death that originated from her master.
And then it changed a little, but Xaya couldn't tell what it was.
Nonetheless, the deathbringer was what she wanted!
[Deathbringer has swallowed up Kyoya's Trickster God's energy.]
[A connection has been made.]
[Deathbringer has been awakened.]
[Deathbringer: Ghost Rise has awakened due to your past experience and recent irregular concept.]
This Ghost Rise skill was thanks to the fact that Xaya had seen the ghosts clearly from her master's inheritance, but also due to the recent concept she awakened mysteriously. She could outline something while it was invisible!
But it was invisible as it was the ghost.
Though now that it has become a real ability, those ghosts will surely appear visible to many adventurer's eyes!
[Your class has enhanced the husband's knife. If he manages to kill his opponent, you will be able to erase the foreign consciousness and make the ghost out of it. This ghost's stats will be shared with you. You will be able to use the ghost's unique properties-]
'The husband's back will be all mine again!'
Xaya stopped the message with her inward scream filled with excitement.
Only after some time passed did the message continue.
[- for a few minutes. The ghost's death results in you losing its stats. You also can not keep the ghost summoned for too long! The special passive skill 'Ghost's Chamber' has been added to your skill list.]
[Ghost's Chamber: 0/3
You can store up to three ghosts!]
[Your ghosts can use one of the former owner's skills. You also can use your skills through your summons.]
"The husband's back is all mine~~ The husband's back is all mine~~"
Xaya was already on the run while humming! All she wanted to use was the new skill and be together with her husband on her favorite spot! Just a few seconds were needed for a yandere wife to enter the cold mist.
She then found her husband and wrapped her arms around his neck.
"Xaya?!"
As Kyoya suddenly got pulled, he found his wife taking her spot. Then, her cheeks rubbed his own in an affectionate manner that was kinda new. It felt like his wife won something, but the battle was still going on!
Furthermore, it was not time for cuddling!
"Kill the filth, husband!"
"Of course!"
But his wife used her new skill that shocked the husband. It made his knife darker with black aura that increased his range. Of course, Kyoya had something similar to this already, but he was ready to mix the concepts.
It was his wife's skill, so there shouldn't be a problem!
"Is it a new supportive skill? A damage increase this time?"
"Hehe! Husband will be surprised soon!"
"Hmm?"
"The husband's back is all mine!"
"Always has been."
The husband smiled broadly just like his wife. He then followed her finger that pointed at the dead invader whose body was barely moving now! It used the coldness around and energy to slide!
It was hard, but Lodden was enjoying it nonetheless.
if he survived then it would be nice, but if not then this is it!
He would just lose one of many golden chances that already happened a lot in his life with many believers and beliefs!
But when the new kind of knife reached his neck, Lodden suddenly lost all his thoughts. It lasted momentarily, but it gave rough ideas as to what has happened. In the next second, Lodden tried to completely erase this consciousness, but he failed!
His smirk completely got erased by this finding.
Since he couldn't kill 'himself' here, there was a chance those adventurers would be able to use him without his knowledge! His plans for this land… and maybe even more might be exposed soon!
'Who possibly could? This… sexy chick? Sexy?'
Due to Xaya's beauty, Lodden couldn't stop himself from calling her in 'the appropriate way' despite the horrendous situation going on! He locked his eyes on smiling Xaya who looked like she just got the best news in her life.
Then, his mind began completely forgetting everything.
He was losing himself… because of the sexy wolf, not the chick!
"It seems… like I will be your golden chance. At some point, I expected that… I guess the karma bites back a little."
Lodden muttered his last words before completely turning into the ghost.
The ghost scared the shit out of Xiaoxiao then!
