Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Bang!!

A white flame detonated above White Crab Island.

The flames slowly subsided, revealing Zhi Jinqin’s monstrous body without a scratch.

“It’s useless.” She glared at Yuria opposite her. “Brother, have you forgotten about my special attribute? This sort of attack can’t even let me suffer a slight pain...”

The many black tentacles underneath her white skirt were dancing furiously. One of them whipped out vigorously, smacking Yuria.

Wham!

Yuria was beaten down from the sky, crashing into the surface of White Crab Island in flying dirt and rubble.

However, immediately, Yuria erected back in the air, fusing himself into the blade and forming a silver light shooting towards Zhi Jinqin.

“If the high temperature doesn’t work then I shall attack with pure physics!”

That earlier blast on Yuria was by creating a high-temperature explosive bomb with current technology but this was useless towards Zhi Jinqin.

Having been treated as a lab rat by father all these years, she had produced an adaptability to attributes of most attacks. Regular high temperature served no purpose.

Immortal Body brought about absolute adaptability and as long as there was energy, the body would slowly evolve to adapt to the worst conditions of the environment.

At the stage of Zhi Jinqin, it was no longer adaptability but an extreme mutation.

Swoosh!

Zhi Jinqin didn’t even dodge but remained afloat on the spot as Yuria waved his dagger. Her tentacles were chopped off by Yuria’s massive strength but once they were chopped, more tentacles grew back. Yuria was putting in a lot of effort into chopping, but chopping off two tentacles only caused three more to grow.

“Wind Trace!” Yuria shouted out. His blade cut thirteen stabs and each cut drew a transparent yet sharp current as they intertwined and shot towards Zhi Jinqin.

Bam bam bam...

The wind blades slewed at Zhi Jinqin without resistance.

“Brother... Have you forgotten?” Over ten deep cuts were inflicted on Zhi Jinqin’s body but in the blink of an eye, the wounds healed up. It was futile.

Zhi Jinqin extended one tentacle and placed it by her mouth like a finger and licked it.

“Aren’t you familiar, with my body?” She asked with a devilish glare which streaked past her eyes.

“Shut up!!” Yuria was huffing and puffing when he blurted in anger. He regained his spirits to chop off three tentacles around him and retreated a far distance before stopping.

“You’re not my sister! Qin is not like you!” Yuria’s face flushed red. “How sickening!”

“Sickening?” Zhi Jinqin paused. “You dare say your own sister is sickening...” One of her tentacles stretched down and extended swiftly, diving somewhere on White Crab Island before swishing and shrinking back.

Whilst her tentacle shrunk, it grabbed a female body that had lost consciousness. It was Parakeet.

“Then, what do you think of Parakeet?” Zhi Jinqin looked more and more devilish.

“Let go of her!” Yuria’s grip on the dagger tightened. Seeing his sister that was a complete stranger now, his heart was burdened with an accumulation of torrents that could explode at any moment.

“Her?” Zhi Jinqin uncovered a sense of wickedness. Wham!

Her tentacle tightened and squished Parakeet by the waist. The two parts of Parakeet’s body in the white dress fell in two directions as it broke apart.

“Brother... Do you feel good?” Zhi Jinqin opened her mouth again. What caught the stunned Yuria off guard was that she was using Parakeet’s voice.

“You!!” Yuria took a few steps backward. He stared at Zhi Jinqin in disbelief.

“Parakeet is just one of my clothes... What? Did brother fall in love with her?” Zhi Jinqin’s sickening smile deepened, “That won’t do... You belong to me, only to me forever... Even if she’s a clone, it won’t do!”

“You’ve lost your mind!” Yuria really did not know how to face this chaos.

Qin was completely out of it. She was no longer that cute and sweet sister he knew.

“You’re not Qin... You’re not...”

With a swish, he charged forwards, wielding his blade from side to side into a silvery-white ball of light. He shot it at Zhi Jinqin.

At the same time, his other arm tossed out a silvery-white little ball from his sleeve, fusing it into the ball of light.

Zhi Jinqin showed no resistance and allowed his random attacks.

Boom!

In the area the both of them at, the sky exploded in blossoms of ice. White snowflakes scattered around.

Yuria’s right arm held on to his saber that was frozen in a flower of ice and stabbed deeply into Zhi Jinqin’s right breast.

“It’s useless.” Zhi Jinqin chuckled as though it wasn’t her that was stabbed.

Even the frozen bomb was useless...!?

Yuria scattered to retreat as he struggled to land to his original position.

He watched with wide eyes as Qin’s penetrated breast healed immediately as though nothing had happened.

“There’s one more move.” Something quietly appeared in Yuria’s hand. He held it tight behind him as he held his dagger with one hand, but he realized that his blade broke into pieces.

After experiencing fluctuating high and low temperatures in such a short time frame, the dagger could not withstand it any longer.

He tossed the dagger aside. Looking at his sister opposite him, the person before him was definitely not Qin. For all these years, the sister that was gentle and sweet was not a twisted monster. Only by knocking her awake, there would be a possibility of saving this disease riddled world.

Thinking of those that may die from this crisis; Nine-Tailed Fox, mother Light Path, his former classmates, teachers as well as countless innocent people, Garen felt a lump in his heart.

“My last attempt.”

He raised the thing he held in his hand. That black metal ball was heavily engraved with a dark blue character. It was not known what character it was. The character was reeking a pale blue fluorescence from within.

“This again? It’s useless.” Zhi Jinqin laughed. “But I guess it’s okay. What’s one more attempt to have you give up?”

She spread open her arms as if trying to embrace Yuria.

“Come.”

Yuria’s face remained unchanged and his body shot away in a swish. The distance of tens of meters was breezed through and in an instant, he appeared before Zhi Jinqin to smash the ball into his sister’s chest.

And at this moment, the black ball with blue characters turned red.

“This is!!??” Zhi Jinqin’s face changed. “Heavy Acidic Thunder!”

Kaboom!

With a dull rumble, the area between them blasted an air of red mist. This mist was like a living being absorbed into Zhi Jinqin.

Ah!!!

She lifted her eyes and grumbled in pain. The tentacles beneath her skirt started to scramble in berserk. A few of the tentacles started whipping at Yuria.

With a wham, Yuria lost consciousness. It was as though a train rammed into him as his bones crackled. He crashed into the ground like a rocket, splattering a fog of debris and smoke. It was not known how deep the pit was but it was at least tens of meters.

A white fog was steaming from the hole. Yuria laid in the center of the core covered in wounds. Rock and dirt around started to melt in red. The high-velocity friction had caused an astoundingly high temperature.

After the red mist was completely absorbed by Zhi Jinqin, her body revealed herself again. Her clear upper body skin rotted and half the flesh of her face corroded into a wax form and was dripping.

“Brother... I’m in pain...” Zhi Jinqin was sobbing but her eyes were mixed with the hissing and howling of some monsters that it sent chills down spines.

The bones of Yuria’s legs were completely broken as he struggled to get up from the ground. Although the vitality of his body was much stronger, facing such a hit and without the Immortal Body such as Zhi Jinqin’s caused unbearable pain. Sweat mixed with blood from his wounds were bleeding from his broken legs, causing a bloody smell of metal as it evaporated on the high-temperature surface.

He had borrowed all possible powers and the abilities of Savior had wielded to its maximum to try to injure Qin’s body but he was still powerless against her Immoral ability of unlimited recovery.

He grabbed onto the walls with his arms, disregarding the hissing sounds on his palms from the high temperature.

Staring at Qin who was waving her tentacles about in the air, his heart sank.

“So it ends?...” He lowered his head to look at himself. He was powerless to continue.

For a mortal to achieve such power, wounding a terrifying monster that even missiles and cannons could not harm, there was no hope.

“Didn’t I already predict this outcome?” Yuria smiled bitterly. Qin’s Immortal Body was an outcome he foresaw but he still came, not to put in a last effort but to bet on the possibility of awakening his sister’s awareness.

“Perhaps I still carry a slight hope with me, that it was Father’s plan and not Qin’s...” Yuria felt confused but surprisingly calm.

Muddling away his life all these years with his sister changing his memory and strolling away, his companions that died in the fire, his friends, brothers, one by one were still standing before him as though they were still alive.

“After living all these years...” He stretched out his arm and looked at his young pale arm. It was obvious that Zhi Jinqin has used some technique to reinvent his body to prolong youth.

“It’s time to put an end to it.”

“Brother... Why are you still so silly?” Zhi Jinqin’s voice was heard from the sky. “You’re always playing a fool, this is really causing me trouble...”

A rumble was heard and with a dull crash, countless tentacles fell from the sky and smacked at Yuria who was in the pit.
