The White Widow did not want to give Asha’ruiya the chance to catch her breath. She rose into the sky and suddenly vanished into thin air.
The surface of the lake was as calm as a mirror, but a strange white shadow suddenly appeared from the water. It was sneaking up to Asha’ruiya from behind like a vengeful spirit, her glittering eyes staring at the human above it.
The shadow under the water turned out to be the White Widow’s reflection. She was falling from the sky out of nowhere. She hung upside down behind Asha’ruiya and swung her claws ferociously at the human.
The whole sequence happened very quickly. It only took the White Widow a second to appear out of nowhere and launch her attacks. It was unlikely anyone would see her coming under normal circumstances.
Asha’ruiya’s body was shredded by the claws.
Her body did not scatter across the place in a spray of blood and flesh. It dispersed like a cloud of smoke into the water!
The White Widow was shocked. She immediately turned around and fired the poisonous spikes on her back in all directions!
Poisonous spikes poured down as rapidly as rain. The whole lake was stirred up by the spikes. Some of the islands were even knocked to pieces.
Asha’ruiya was gone like a cloud of dust. The spikes failed to hurt her.
The dark smoke floated above the White Widow. A black sword suddenly extended out of it and slashed at the White Widow.
The White Widow quickly moved away, but the sword still hit one of her legs. The severed leg sank slowly into the water.
The White Widow let out a furious screech. She raised her other front limb.
A piercing wind sliced across the lake like an enormous scythe, like it was going to cut Asha’ruiya in half.
Asha’ruiya’s body did split in half. However, her body was replaced with two black petals as it was falling toward the water. The petals were carried away by the ripples on the lake.
A dazzling rose bearing many sharp thorns blossomed under the White Widow’s legs.
The petals of the rose were all made up of black swords. They were packed together like a gorgeous piece of art, but they were also giving off a menacing Aura!
Sword Rose!
The thrusting swords poked several holes into the White Widow’s stomach. Blue blood began pouring out of the wounds.
The injured White Widow quickly climbed a hundred meters into the air.
The hairs on her legs were vibrating madly. It was the Widow’s way of sensing her surroundings. Even the slightest breeze could not escape her senses.
She was searching for Asha’ruiya. The Widow could no longer predict Asha’ruiya’s movements after her Aura had grown stronger.
Asha’ruiya’s movements and attacks had become unpredictable. The White Widow felt humiliated after being hit twice by Asha’ruiya’s attacks.
She was no longer in the mood to preserve Asha’ruiya’s appearance. She had decided to take a more brutal approach.
The White Widow closed her eyes, pausing in mid-air.
She was surrounded by stationary droplets in the air all about her. Her enemy’s movements would turn the droplets into ripples, allowing the White Widow to track her enemy’s position. She would also learn the enemy’s intentions faster than using the naked eye.
That was the reason why Asha’ruiya had so much trouble hitting the White Widow previously.
The ripples had shown the White Widow the angles Asha’ruiya’s attacks were coming from as she was swinging her sword, hence the White Widow was able to dodge all her attacks perfectly.
“I’m going to find you… Nothing can escape from my hearing.
“Flaws are a part of life sometimes, like Venus, who lost her limbs. She was still considered the prettiest woman in the world, even after she lost her limbs.
“Therefore, people should be able to accept a woman with a huge hole and a missing heart in her chest, even if her body is a white spider.”
The White Widow was verbally provoking Asha’ruiya, while conveying her greed for the woman’s beauty.
The White Widow did not necessarily have to hear Asha’ruiya’s movements. Every living creature had a deadly weakness: their heartbeat!
The White Widow could pick up the change of a mouse’s heartbeat within five kilometers!
It was easy to miss a creature’s heartbeat when it was stable, but the change in its frequency was very obvious. The White Widow just needed to pick up the change of her enemy’s heartbeats to track them down.
No one had ever escaped from her hearing!
No one!
There is no way…
The White Widow grew anxious.
She could not find Asha’ruiya. Somehow, Asha’ruiya was the only exception!
A human could remain still and hold their breath, but how could they possibly stop their heart from beating?
Where exactly did she go?
The White Widow started panicking. She even opened her eyes to search for Asha’ruiya.
Her surroundings were empty. The lake was so calm that she could see her reflection perfectly, but there was still no sign of Asha’ruiya.
She wondered if her enemy had left the tile. However, no one could possibly break the Lord of Darkness’ rules. If the human could leave the tile, why would she bother fighting for so long?
The White Widow continued searching for Asha’ruiya. She slowly glided down from the sky. Somehow, she no longer felt safe in the air.
There was nothing around her, except for her reflection in the water…
The White Widow suddenly realized something when she saw her reflection. She desperately swung her front limb along her back.
A petite figure nimbly dodged the claw.
Asha’ruiya did a backflip before thrusting out. A dazzling shower of swords punched through the White Widow, leaving countless holes in her body!
The White Widow cried out in pain, her body shredded by the swords. She finally realized why she had failed to track down Asha’ruiya.. The woman was hiding on her back all along. She had been mimicking the Widow’s heartbeat by tapping her sword!
