Chapter 143: chapter 143 - Undine
"... *AHHHH!!* "
Undine screamed so loudly, that it made the black liquid around her ripple, then quickly formed a dome shield that surrounded her.
*BOOMM!!*
The fire Dragon hit the shield with great force.
The heat from the fire met the black liquid, producing a lot of smoke.
The undine shield was sturdy, but the Fire Dragon had more power, Just Sturdy, not enough to stop Taufik's attack.
The fire dragon seems like have it's own mind, as can be seen from how it tries to keep breaking through the Shield created by Undine
But it won't succeed because the Shield keeps regenerating by absorbing black liquid to replace the black liquid that disappears due to evaporation.
"*AHHH!* "
The Undine was screaming once more time, and this time many Tentacles made by the Black liquid came toward the fire Dragon, wrapped around the entire body of the fire dragon from head to tail, to the point the fire dragon was no longer visible.
*ROOARRR!!!*
The fire dragon let out a final roar before it completely disappeared, leaving only mist behind.
With that, the Dome shield around Undine also begins to collapse.
*Smirk*
Undine was seen grinning as she looked at Taufik, but instead of being angry, Taufik replied back with a grin as well.
"... Look like I need to beat you like what I did to your brothers; alright, Prepare yourself!"
Said Taufik and Undine, who seemed not happy with it.
Undine then tried to dive into the black liquid again, but Taufik's 'Word Magic' was faster than Undine's movement.
"STOP!"
In this way, Undine's movements are restricted.
"Grahh?"
But defeating her in this way was not Taufik's plan, he wanted to beat her to a pulp like what he did to the Ancient Earth Spirits before.
"But before that, let's change the Environment first"
Taufik said with a smile on his face, Undine, who saw this felt a despair in her heart; she tried to escape by diving into the black liquid, but her body didn't want to hear her.
It can be seen in how the Katana vibrates very strongly. The Katana seems reluctantly by what Taufik wants to do, and the vibrates keep going stronger as Taufik slowly shrinks it in the Black Liquid. After that, Taufik let his Mana flow out.
"You know? I'm here just to help you, as your brother asked me to do it, but... Why it's so hard just to meet you? Huh? And finally when I meet you... damn!
I don't want to remember it; that shit was so f*cking disgusting. Do you even brush your teeth?... I know that's not what you want, but worry not, because it will end shortly... Alright this much should be enough, let's not make it too big"
Said Taufik, but dissatisfaction was visible on his face.
"*sigh* this took too much time to utilize... I will upgrade it later"
Taufik said, thinking to upgrade his technique later because, at this state, This technique cannot be used efficiently in battle.
Taufik then looked back at Undine, who was still frozen in silence because of Taufik's 'Word Magic'; Taufik looked at her with a grin on his face, which made Undine shiver.
"let's start the 'healing' process, shall we?"
"Gr-grah?"
"False world: endless desert!"
*swoosh!*
Mana Taufik in the air began to react as Taufik said that word, and then from where Taufik Katana was stuck, the terrain began to change. the black liquid changed to become sand, like a chain reaction; it started to spread very quickly to the whole area where Taufik Mana reached.
"???"
Undine looked confused by this, and because she couldn't move her body, only her eyes moved, looking here and there.
And before she realized it, she was already standing above the sand, not her black liquid anymore.
The fake sunlight that shone on this place seemed to burn Undine's body, as it was seen emitting steam.
*AGHHH!!*
Undine screamed in pain because her skin felt like it was burning. Her body fluids kept coming out to protect her from the sun, but it was useless and only added to the steam that was being created.
'... Wait! Steam? Should it be like this?'
[I think I know what happened here, master]
"What?"
[Master must have known that what he was facing now was not Undine's real body, right]
"Yeah"
[It's her Astral body, but it's still linked directly to her soul, that's why she can feel Pain]
"... And?"
[And here was inside master Technique, more precisely is inside master domain, so inside here everything was made by master Mana, even that fake sun was made by Master Mana, in short, everything here contains Master Mana, which was the pure Mana, so-]
"Ahh~"
After hearing The system's explanation, Taufik quickly realized what the System was trying to convey.
"So it's like that, I see~ I see~... F*ck"
Said Taufik; it was a happy outcome; everything was finished without any beating, but Taufik was not happy at all.
"... *Sigh* that's not my intent"
Taufik said and then directly Sitting above the sand while watching Undine, who was still screaming in Agony.
That steam was not from Undine skin that gets burned, but from the Corrupted Mana which was exposed by Taufik's Pure Mana.
Spirit was a creature created from Mana, so they needed to stay exposed to Mana to keep living; that's what happened to Undine right now; Inside Taufik's 'False world,' only Mana owned by Taufik is allowed to circulate, so Right now, Undine was breathing in Taufik pure Mana.
Taufik pure Mana was circulated inside Undine's body, and when it met with the corrupted Mana Inside Undine's body, Taufik Pure Mana, who more superior, forced the Corrupted Mana out of Undine's body.
'... That's not body fluid but The corrupted Mana, so when it goes outside Undine's body, it's also exposed to my mana; that's where the steam comes from, am I right, system?'
[Yes Master]
"that's not my plan though *Sigghh~* "
Said Taufik with a long sigh, he only sat there while watching Undine Screaming In agony.
"it seems this will take a long time to be done, don't you think so, system?"
[Yes, Master, The corrupted Mana has almost controlled her mind, so it will take a long time, but with your help, the process will be done in a second. Do you want to help her to speed up the process, Master?]
"Hmm~ Nah~ let her suffer for a bit, it was a small payment for what she had done to me, it's even not enough to pay for saving her life"
Said Taufik, then made a tent and beach chairs, complete with food and drinks with his 'Imagination Magic'.
"Ahh~"
Taufik then lay on the beach chair while wearing the sunglasses that were also made by his Imagination Magic.
*ARGHHH!*
And Undine still screaming in the background.
"... What a beautiful Melody~"
Said Taufik while drinking the orange juice.
"... But now I know the fast way to help the Ancient spirit... It's become boring, somehow"
After a 'long and pained Screaming of Undine' later.
Undine's screams of pain had begun to subside.
"*Hoam~* it is Done?"
[Yes Master, she has been purified]
"Alright, let's Go and see how is she"
Said Taufik and then walked toward Undine.
"Hmm?"
Taufik is a bit confused when he looks at the purified Undine, different from the fierce look before, this Undine is a gentle and graceful girl.
Her skin, which was originally blue, now had a human-like color; no, it was even smoother than human skin; it was as white as snow.
Her previously unruly white hair was now Smooth as if she had just come out of the salon.
There's no Fang or Sharp claw anymore; her face is just like a face that humans should have, but it is more beautiful than most humans.
'... If her body size was like humans too, and have a foot like humans, she would be a beautiful woman'
That is what Taufik thought when he saw the current Undine in front of him.
"... W-where am I?"
Ask Undine; her memory is still fuzzy, so it will take her some time to remember what she has done.
"Why there's so much sand in here?"
Ask Undine Again while massaging her forehead, still didn't realize Taufik's presence, who still observed her.
"... Your appearance before... it is only will show when you get angry? Because that turtle said that you will look crazy when you're angry, is it what he means?"
"!!!"
"Hmm?"
"Wh- *Ughh!* "
Undine, who wanted to ask Taufik's Identity, suddenly was hit by a massive headache, and then a piece of memory began to appear in her mind.
"!!!"
Undine then remembers who Taufik was, and then a Cold sweat falls on his face. Her eyes were trambled when she looked at Taufik, and a stream of tears was falling from her eyes.
Taufik was a bit confused at this, so he wanted to ask if she was okay, but.
"Hy-"
"*Hiekk!!* "
Undine trembled violently, the pain she felt before returning to haunt her mind.
"D-don't... "
"...What?"
Taufik can't hear what Undine is trying to say, so he tries to get close to Undine, but as soon as Taufik steps forward, Undine also moves further away from him.
"What the... "
"Don't... "
"'Don't' what?"
"... DON'T GET CLOSE TO ME!! Y-YOU M-MONSTER!!!"
"???"
"... *Hieakk!!* "
"... What the hell?"
....
