Chapter 387 - It Seems You Don't Need Help
Pride was holding a similar battle-ax to Tang Shaoyang. His version was much bigger and different in design, of course. That was the weapon he bought from the General Store.
Not the best one, but the right one for someone who was his size. The Bombyx Mori Army surrounded him in the air.
"Surrender then your life will be spared!" Fire Bombyx Mori General shouted a warning to Pride.
"Surrender? I will rather die than surrender! Stop with the nonsense and let's start the battle!" The Demonic Ape challenged the army.
It was weird that the whole army was chasing after him, but he did not bother to think about it. Since they came for him, he would fight them even if there were hundreds of them.
He was not afraid of the enemy, and strategizing things was not his forte. He would fight the enemy with his strength.
"Fire, Wind, and Ice! Start your attack!" Abiel immediately commanded his army to start the attack, "Metal, you will be our vanguard!"
The Metal Bombyx Mori swarmed to the front as the Fire, Wind, and Ice Bombyx Moris were flying higher above the vanguard.
The Fire Bombyx Mori shot fireballs toward Pride. The Ice Bombyx Mori shot icicles toward Pride.
The Wind Bombyx Mori shot wind blades toward Pride. Pride was bombarded from the air.
"Damn, this is cheating!" Pride stored the battle-ax back to the inventory as he leaped toward the tree. A quick leap from one tree to another. His agile movement caused all the projectiles to miss.
Fire Bombyx Mori General Abiel was observing Pride's movement. He quickly realized that Pride was running in a circle, "Metal be careful of a sudden leap! The ape is trying to catch us off guard!" Abiel quickly read Pride's intention as soon as he discovered that Pride did not run from their attacks.
"Quite sharp, huh!?" Pride glanced at the formation. The Metal Bombyx Moris were flying organizedly, blocking the path to reach the main attackers, "What about this then."
As Pride landed on the next tree, he made another leap. However, there were six of Pride this time. The six same figures then moved in six different directions.
This was one of Pride's skills, [Doppelganger]. Turning himself into an illusion. The illusions caused a sudden confusion in the army as they immediately stopped shooting.
"What are you doing!?" General Abiel bellowed, "Don't stop shooting, you dumb! Just shoot! Shoot any of them!"
The direction from the General awakened the confused army. They immediately started to shoot Pride, aiming in six different directions. One of six illusions should be the real body.
"It's easy to trick these stupid bugs!" The real Pride leaped toward the formation from the place he cast [Doppelganger]. The real Pride never moved from his original spot.
Pride had the battle-ax in his hand. His surprise attack was unpredictable. General Abiel only noticed this only after Pride was right in front of the vanguard.
[Demonic Laceration]
It was another new skill of Pride from his evolution. The dark energy covered the sharp blade on the battle-ax as Pride swung the battle-ax horizontally.
Weng!
General Abiel witnessed dozens of Metal Bombyx Moris being sliced into two before his eyes. However, Pride was not over with his attack yet.
After the first swing, he threw the battle-ax toward General Abiel. The 3.2 meters long battle-ax was swirling in the air, flying toward General Abiel.
The flying battle-ax caused General Abiel to panic. He immediately created a firewall to block the incoming battle-ax. With his life in the line, he forgot to give his command before he went into a defensive stance.
This gave Pride another chance to launch another attack. He extended his hand toward the main attackers and cast another skill, [Demonic Grasp].
Two big hands made of Demonic Energy formed in the air. The two hands immediately grasped the Bombyx Mori in the front. Dozens of Bombyx Moris were grasped by the hand, locking their wings so they could not maintain their position in the air.
More than forty Bombyx Moris were falling to the ground together with Pride. The Demonic Ape immediately slaughtered the helpless Bombyx Moris on the ground.
The whole situation happened too fast, less than two minutes. Less than two minutes, two-tenths of the army was taken down by Pride.
General Abiel managed to block the flying battle-ax with his firewall. However, as soon as the firewall vanished, his people's butchered bodies greeted his sight.
Pride was standing next to the butchered bodies, grinning toward General Abiel. The Demonic Ape was mocking General Abiel.
"Since that's what you want, I will make you pay for looking down on me!" Dozens of spears made of fire formed around General Abiel. In the next second, he shot all of them at once. It was completely different from the slower and predictable fireball shot by his subordinates. Abiel's fire spears were more destructive and faster.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
A continuous explosion rang and the ground was vibrating from the impact. The continuous explosion created a small mushroom of smoke in the air.
However, Abiel's fire spears were still slow for Pride. This time twelve Prides rushed out of the explosion, moving independently into twelve directions.
"Stop dozing off, you idiots! Shoot them! Find the real one!" General Abiel shouted at his subordinates. He was on the edge as he was not expecting Pride was this strong despite their numerical advantage.
One of Abiel's fire spears hit one of the illusions, "That's fake!" He immediately looked for another one to aim for.
While the Bombyx Mori was trying to find the real Pride, the real one was just standing inside the smoke of the explosion. He was pulling the same trick after receiving the fire spears with his [Demonic Armament].
"Tch, these Elemental Beasts are so stupid. How can they fall for the same trick for the second time? I wonder if making the Light Bombyx Mori Tribe be a vassal is the right decision?"
Pride immediately shook his head, "It's not up to me to decide that, Lord Shaoyang is the one who will make that decision."
After a short monologue, Pride leaped through the smoke and reached the Bombyx Mori's vanguard. Using one of the Metal Bombyx Mori as a stepping stone, Pride made another jump toward General Abiel.
General Abiel was caught off guard for the second time. He was not expecting that the real Pride would be hiding in the explosion.
However, before the Pride could reach him, fire swirled around Abiel. The fire then covered his whole body from all sides.
Pride remained unfazed in front of the fire as he cast another skill, [Demonic Claw]. A claw made of Demonic Energy formed in his hand. The claw was fifty centimeters long.
Pride used the newly formed Demonic Claw to tear the fire apart. The Demonic Energy easily ripped apart the swirling fire, exposing General Abiel who was hiding behind the fire.
The Demonic slashed his left claw upward, cutting through General Abiel's abdomen.
A pained scream resounded from General Abiel. Pride was not over as he immediately grabbed Abiel's neck with his right hand.
Pride pulled the claw from Abiel's abdomen and slashed the wings. General Abiel's wings were easily ripped by the Demonic Claw. With the wings, Pride easily brought General Abiel down to the ground.
Dump!
Pride pinned General Abiel on the ground. The victory had been decided. As Pride was about to finish General Abiel off, he heard a shout from Kairu.
"Pride! Do you need help?" Everyone, including General Abiel and the Bombyx Mori army, looked toward the voice.
Kairu and a human were walking side by side, "H-how?" The shock of seeing Kairu alive overwhelmed his pain as General Abiel muttered in an unbelievable tone.
Kairu should be fighting against Elder Giel, but why was he here? Who was that human? More and more questions filled General Abiel's head.
Meanwhile, Kairu looked toward the air before looking toward Pride who pinned down General Abiel.
"It seems you don't need my help," Kairu grinned at Pride and Pride also grinned. Both picked the same habit as their Lord.
"Yes! This Pride does not need your help!" As Pride said that, he brought the Demonic Claw toward General Abiel's head. The Demonic Clas pierced through the head. He then brought the Demonic Claw upward, killing General Abiel.
