New Life, New Task: I'll Be A Mom Then!!!

Chapter 568 Breaking The Stalemate



"We should hurry up, we will be able to catch them on time." Emperor Razak whose face has been tense ever since they were forced to make a move personally finally relaxed.

In his mind, at least his troops and Rachana did not fail them this time around.

"Let's go then…" The Pope headed over and rushed as well.

The morning is about to come and so with a new enemy.

But none on the island knew that the Pope and the Emperor were coming. All they knew was the battle between Eli and Rachana was reaching its peak at the moment.

Rachana discovered that the altars had revealed themselves and could not help but smile.

"Who might have known that it is still intact?" She thought but in her heart, she was already rejoicing because the presence of the altars would surely turn the tables in her favor.

Seeing Eli busy holding the cursed beast with her grand move, Rachana thought that this would be the perfect chance to use the altars.

And so she immediately flew to the centermost altar and slashed her wrist, "Come and obey me!" She shouted.

Her figure dashed forward and the drop of her blood was ready to be smeared to the offering bowl as well. The altar seemed to also have sensed her presence and all of them immediately glowed as if hungry for sacrifices.

"Eli chan! The fake Paladin is going after the altars!" Wisey noticed Rachana's move and immediately warned Eli.

Eli moved and chased after Rachana, their bodies bumping into each other.

"F*ck" Rachana could not help but curse as she saw that she missed the chance to go near the altar.

But Eli no longer wanted to let her go and so she could only struggle to fight until she had the chance to approach the altar once again.

In an instant, the fight became a close combat fight as they intensely went for each other's throats. Rachana had a weak balance because her leg is yet to fully recover but that did not decrease her ferociousness and instincts in a battle.

"I, Rachana, will not allow myself to be defeated by someone like you!" Rachana congealed her remaining mana and threw her fist to attack Eli.

"I will not allow someone like you to spread terror to the innocent as well…" Eli replied while she used the staff to counter the other party's blow.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The next moment, Eli clenched her fist tightly as well and turned her staff to hit Rachana at the other end.

The move was so swift, and adding to Rachana's current injury, she was hit directly.

"Tsk…" Rachana felt the pain in her body as she was uncontrollably thrown several meters away from her original position.

The loss of curse energy really affected her performance in the battle and so she was getting more and more desperate for a replenishment.

Fortunately for her, there were several fallen men around, they were from the Vanderford's troops and their lives were already hanging by a thread.

"Give your life essence to me!" She said as she used her powers and directly sucked the life essence of these men.

Dark purple veins appeared on her body as the life essence flowed in her body like a fountain.

"That's it… give me more…" Rachana said with a satisfied smile.

Eli's face darkened as she realized what Rachana did in a span of a second. "Despicable!" She said as she saw how Rachana did not even hesitate to 'eat' the lives of her own allies.

"Let's give her no chance, Eli!" Wisey said and the two moved at once.

Wisey used several wind-blade attacks to disrupt Rachana while Eli charged forward.

Rachana saw them move but was unbothered. She made sure to get the last bit of life essence to the people around her even ignoring the attacks coming from their side before she moved.

In the end, the poor fallen men had their bodies dried up to the bones, their eyes staring at Rachana wide-eyed and in disbelief.

The Lieutenant and the other officers from her troops did not react adversely to her choices, because just like her, their powers share the same nature. If there would be a time that they needed to replenish, they would also not hesitate to use their own men to save their lives.

This extremely made Abaddon and the rest uncomfortable. Such a twisted way of thinking, and they could not help but be shocked about it.

"Even if you replenish everything, your powers are limited." Eli looked at Rachana who had a smug look on her face.

"What do you know? Besides, it is not only this power that I can use!" Rachana talked back.

Then at her words, she used her power once again but this time it has the asani power covering her more. "This is the true nature of my power… Look… even if curse power won't work on you, would this power not work on you as well? How would it make you feel to be hurt by the power of the guardian who was supposed to be on your side as well?" Rachana mocked Eli.

"You have already used it earlier… Am I still not standing in front of you even so?" Eli asked.

"That is because I did not use it intently as well! If I had known, I would have used it earlier than now!" Rachana was greatly vexed by Eli's question and was deeply insulted. She did not want the feeling of her mistakes being pointed out at the moment.

"Regardless… This is where you stop." Eli looked at Rachana who never showed remorse for her actions.

"It is you who will die at this very moment! After you die, next to die is that investigator Eli, then the Third Prince of the Seirende will be mine!" Rachana declared as she admitted that it was her and 'Eli' whom she greatly abhors at the moment.

Eli felt uncomfortable with someone saying that they wanted to take away her fiance but she remained calm. If she loses her cool, then not only will Rachana suspect something, but it might also cause her to be defeated at the moment.

In the end, she also prepared for her attack and met Rachana's attack. The glowing gold and white wisps of power swirled on her hand and it congealed into a bright mana orb.

The orb did not look formidable as compared to Rachana's, instead, it was more of a gentle flow of mana dancing on her palms like it was swimming in the water.

Since Rachana wants to end this in one blow, then she will do it as well.

"This is your death… weak paladin!" Rachana declared.

The two rushed against each other and released their powers. In the dark skies, the clash of the two mana balls caused it to brighten in a moment.

Just as this happened, Emperor Razak and the Pope saw the scene because they managed to traverse the mountain range that separates them from the coast.

When they saw the two kinds of power clash, they could not help but frown as they did not expect that they would still see someone retaliate against their forces.

When they felt earlier that the altars had been awakened they thought that Rachana was able to defeat all the invaders of the holy island. But looking at the scene, it seems like it was far from over.

"I'll go and see the situation." The Pope stepped forward and was about to approach the battlefield but Emperor Razak immediately stopped him.

"Don't be hasty… it won't be too late to intervene later on if we are already this near to the battlefield. Besides, we expanded a lot of mana to catch up with them… these old bones are tired." Emperor Razak said.

Pope Ramir also got what Emperor Razak said and it was true that they were not in the best condition. And so with his persuasion, he also remained in the mountain and watched as he tried to rest for a while.

However, their expressions suddenly changed when they saw that the dark-colored power was slowly being pushed by the gently white and gold power. And from their standpoint, Rachana was being pushed back as well.

"Argggg!" Rachana gritted her teeth as she tried to resist the overwhelming power of Eli's attack.

But she could already feel that she was about to lose as the light around drowned her completely.

Boom!!!

Finally, the clash reached its peak and Rachana was completely surrounded by the bright and golden power, burning her skin rapidly.

"This is not good!!! We have to rescue her!" Pope Ramir exclaimed when he saw the situation. "We cannot afford to lose another vessel or else…"

"Say no more, let's go!!!" Emperor Razak also knew what it meant if Rachana died, and so even if they were tired, they had to do what they had to do.
