"So if I might ask before I... *cough* join your crusade, why one? Where are the other seven?"
"No need to worry about that. All invitation stones are connected. Once we merge the two halves together, we can locate the others.
So what do you say? Will you join me? Just say yes, and you can have me as a bonus."
Ella came close to Lenny; she had a seductive smile on her face, indicating her sensual intention if he agreed.
However, Lenny really found this to be disgusting.
Especially because she was in a monkey suit.
Lenny had his head as it seemed like he was contemplating whether to agree or not.
This happened for a few seconds, and then he raised his head toward her. He had a smile on his face.
A smile she didn't understand.
"So, is that a yes?" Her eyes brightened.
However, Lenny cracked a low laugh, and little tears ran down his eyes.
This surprised her. And she was starting to wonder if he was okay.
"You know, I have really worked hard in my life, but never has a bad guy invited me to join their cause. I'm SO proud!"
A few more tears ran down Lenny's eyes. "However," his expression suddenly became stern as a cocky smile stained a corner of his lips.
"How do those guys say it in the movies... Yes! I remember," he nodded. "GO... FUCK... YOURSELF... BITCH!"
Ella's brows creased into a frown.
"I understand," she leaned back.
"You want to be a hero, but don't worry, I'll ensure you get a hero's death."
She took several steps back, and then the back of the monkey skin she was wearing opened up on its own, and slowly she stepped out of it.
The moment her legs touched the ground, the earth shook, and just below the hill on the other side of the battle, a portal to the heavens opened up.
This was a very big portal.
It was the same one that had appeared at that time when she left her domain.
The world seemed to drop terribly low in temperature as everything threatened to freeze over.
Dark, cold Maisma floated out of the Nether portal, and giant tentacles that could easily dwarf the biggest creature Minnie summoned floated out of the Nether portal.
"You know, I had high hopes for you." Ella shook her head in her obvious disappointment. "I had hoped that, as my kin, you'd understand me. But you are just another stupid human sympathizer. But don't worry, I am not angry... It's just quite unfortunate that you will die a sympathizer's death. You should be glad. I won't be sending you alone. You see, my debt to the Nether is not a small one. The debt to that person has incurred extra charges. I am sure the blood of a Nephilim would suit the extra cost."
"I know, right! Me too!" Lenny surprisingly agreed with her.
He suddenly waved his hand, and Ella suddenly floated in the air over the opened Nether realm.
This took her by surprise. However, Lenny chuckled a little. "I know! Mani did not tell you, did she? That vial you took, the major ingredient is not the toxin; it's my blood."
"What!?"

However, Lenny did not desire to explain any more than that. From the very beginning, he could have just changed the magnetic polarity, but he didn't.
After all, any assassin knew that the best time to attack was when one's prey was most calm, and they thought that they were safe.
Besides, he needed knowledge, and now he has it.
With that, Ella was no longer useful. Besides, Lenny really hated the fact that this crazy woman was one of the reasons why this world was so messed up.
Although he was sure that she was not the only one, she played a major role.
Because of her, millions of people died from generation to generation.
Lenny had heard of the Deep State. To think that one of them was an eight hundred year old Nephilim witch.
He was really infuriated by this. Usually, he would not mind torturing Ella for a very long time, but he was not taking any risks with her.
After all, he had felt what her killing intent was like.
It was best to avoid stupid accidents with her kind.
Instantly, he waved his hands, letting her fall into the pit of her own ruin.
Immediately, Ella's wings of light came out of her back, and she flapped them in the air as she rose up.
"For a very smart man, that's a dumb move," she chuckled as she pointed her bow at him.
Lenny also smiled at her, "Really! I doubt your debtor thinks the same," he pointed at a giant tentacle that was heading for her.
She maneuvered in the air, dodging it.
However, another came for her.
She fired her arrows at the incoming tentacle. However, it was of no use.
It was as if she were throwing toothpicks at it.
It grabbed her, wrapping around her like a giant blanket.
"Wait! Wait!! The payment is there. It's right there. I can give it to you. WAIT!!!...Lenny Tales, you bastard! I'll get you for this... I'll..." She screamed as she was quickly pulled into the nether realm.
Lenny watched this without a hint of remorse for her on his face.
As far as he was concerned, she got what she deserved.
However, as the Nether portal was about to close, Arthur, her Holy Tool, jumped into the portal, following her.
The extreme cold in the air was over.
Far up in the sky, Lenny could see that the blood moon was slowly changing color.
In another few minutes, it would be over.
He turned to Ciri on the altar.
Lenny walked up to her.
When he looked at her, he really had conflicting emotions.
The reason was because...
(Author's note: Wait a minute, you were expecting some epic battle between them? If it can be solved with brains, why waste time with brawls? Besides, we have a smart MC, not a dumb one....Thanks for the support, by the way.)
