Demi-human Girls Completion Manual Chapter 1550 - 85: True Nature (2)

But Elliog was different, the bow and arrow shot at her did not pierce her body, but instead transformed into a cage that pinned her to the ground, unable to move.

Both of them weren’t interested in Elliog, they only had plans against Fisher.

"It’s almost time, take him to the surface, Agares."

"Not yet, just a little more..."

Behind him, Agares and Barbatos’ intentions were clear as day, and they had no desire to hide them from Fisher, but seeing Elliog behind him, watching him unharmed with wide eyes, Fisher couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Then he slightly lowered his head, the blood on his body dripping down bit by bit; perhaps it was an illusion, but in his increasingly dazed gaze, it seemed that the blood was turning black.

Time, is it still not enough?

Has the sealing of that base not been destroyed yet?

Elliog gritted her teeth, trying to pull out the arrows covering her body, but at her current Rank, not yet reaching Myth’s level, she couldn’t break free at all.

The gap between Myth and non-Myth was too great, it was a dimensional suppression, let alone that they were two beings of the Eighteenth Rank, escaping was a pipe dream.

But just in her unbelieving and anxious gaze, Fisher only glanced at her, then took a deep breath, reached out sharply to grasp the arrow by Barbatos that pierced his calf, and forcefully pulled it out, thereby standing up again, standing in front of Elliog.

But at this moment, in Elliog’s eyes, the blood flowing from Fisher’s body was no longer bright red, but a thick, black, unknown sludge resembling oil, filled with rich chaos, seemingly pulling the surrounding souls ever closer to it.

Even so, Fisher still wanted to approach the teleportation gate above, to destroy the only possible passage leading upward.

He wanted to destroy the passage directly connecting to Rafael on the surface, so even if he couldn’t control the chaos within him and perished, the chaos wouldn’t endanger Rafael. However, Elliog knew that once the teleportation gate was opened, it couldn’t be closed again until either the opener entered completely or gave up entering...

That meant if Barbatos was unwilling, no matter how hard Fisher tried, he couldn’t close that gate.

Yet seeing Fisher repeatedly making futile efforts to avert the crisis that might befall the Dragon-man Species, Elliog, imprisoned on the ground, only felt increasingly furious, as if a flame inside her was flickering and becoming ever more intense.

She suddenly thought of a very long time ago, of those living creatures that uncontrollably fought and died under the influence of their nature.

She watched helplessly as her attendants killed their children and husbands to prove their sole faith in her, fearing they would seize the favors from Elliog Demon God...

She watched helplessly as a favored warrior, striving to grab his parent’s wealth, fought his brother, resorting to poisoning and sneaky attacks to kill his brother’s entire family, then laughed loudly declaring his victory to Elliog Demon God...

Elliog maybe didn’t decide to escape from then on, after all, for someone as competitive as her, how could she tolerate the existence of an unbeatable opponent ’nature’?

It’s just why did she ultimately choose to hide and sleep as a response?

Through the struggle with nature, she realized that the road to victory came at a cost, and the more she was filled with a sense of competitiveness to defeat nature, the stronger her nature would become due to this competitiveness, causing wars and slaughter...

So, for a long time, she let go of any struggle, saw lightly the reasons that might provoke conflict, even her prayers, her humiliation, her being forgotten she could take lightly.

She forgot she desired to fight because of the harms of struggle, but suddenly now she saw the reasons she loved to contend.

She loved seeing warriors fiercely rise up to protect their homes and families, disregarding all obstacles to repel foreign enemies; she loved seeing people endure humiliation, tirelessly striving for their dreams; she loved seeing the weak not retreating before strong enemies, and repeatedly challenging them...

Elliog grasped the iron cage-like prison of arrows, gritting her teeth and breathing urgently, a sound like molten rock exploding coming from her chest.

"Buzz! Roar!"

"Agares!! Barbatos!!"

...

...

"Tear!"

At this moment, as Fisher’s battle grew more challenging, as his body became increasingly battered and riddled with holes, a peculiar wave suddenly came from the direction of the Seeking Knowledge Gate, like something shattering completely.

The barrier under which Paimon kept the base was destroyed!

Covered in wounds, as if soaked in blood, Fisher fell to one knee on the ground, his face exhibiting a hint of joy, but the next second, that joy was abruptly terminated, because he felt the power of the base, yet the two powerful beings before him still stood perfectly unharmed.

Does it mean Moli and the others can’t control that base to seal them back?
