Conqueror

"Damn it. She's so damn fast. Does her blink even have a cooldown?"

The monster laughed maniacally. "Kekeke. I may not have battle potential but the puppets I control break their limits. Right now you're seeing the full potential of her! Finish it now!"

"Blink." Yefa spammed blink until she got near me.

"Damn it. If it comes to this, I'll target the puppeteer!" I rushed to wards the monster using sprint.

"Protect me!"

"Blink." Yefa got between us. "Magi-" before she could mouth those words, we both fell to the ground as if someone was dragging us down.

We didn't notice but, the barrier I casted ran out of time.

"Oh, you can be affected by my spells. I wonder why it didn't work first time. Anyway, this is easier to kill you." The monster grabbed the air, her hands suddenly dissipated. A portal opened up and she brought out a bow. It was not an ordinary one. It was a giant bow as big as her monstrous body.

"Crystal Arrow." A blue arrow formed and rested itself onto the bow. The monster pulled the string back getting ready. "This is the end." She released the string along with the arrow.

Before it could hit me, I casted barrier only for myself and used sprint to get away quickly.

"What?!" The monster was confused. "I thought you were affected by my magic in this forest? Hrng... Tsk. Stand up doll." Yefa tried to stand up but no matter what she does, she can't muster the strength to stand up. Her skill might not improve the physical abilities of her mind controlled puppets but only their skills. "Damn child. It seems I need to it myself."

Anyway, its better than nothing. I don't want to fight Yefa in that state. She's practically unstoppable. At least I now know she can be very valuable as an ally.

"Crystal Arrow, Multiply!" The arrows of the monster suddenly glowed. It didn't add more arrows but I know that spell is dangerous.

"SPRINT!" I began running in different directions to try to avoid the arrow she's about to fire.

"You can't escape this." She redirected the her bow and arrow in the air and shot it. The arrow lost its glow and suddenly exploded mid air. The arrows multiplied and hailed down to the ground.

I didn't notice but Yefa was behind me still down from the heavy gravity of the area. "Damn it." I pulled out the greatshield from my inventory amd planted it infront of us. "Barrier, Abyssal Enhancement!" I put barrier and enhancement both into the greatshield. The arrows and the shield collided. Small explosions formed and the shield is barely defending against the barrage of arrows.

While the arrows were falling at us, the monster ran towards us.

"What?! Damn it. I have my hands full of the arrows." I pulled out Bloodlust and waited for her to get near us.

"Invisibility." The monster suddenly disappeared in front of me.

"That's just perfect. You can't move if you're invisible." I swung Bloodlust towards her but I felt nothing. As if I'm swinging through air.

"My Invisibility is unique you see. Not that puny shroud skill lower life forms use." I could hear her but I could not see her. I then heard a blade leaving its sheath. "Here I come... Hehe..."

"Damn it. She's too strong. If I run now I'll have to abandon Yefa." Before I could think of what to do, a wound opened behind me. "AGH!" She broke through my barrier in one hit and wounded me. A drip of blood flows through my back. "Barrier! {Karmic Pain} Pa Ma Na Da Ba!" The wound on my back is slowly closing.

The monster reappeared, "Oh? Cursed Arts... And what a wonderful voice. I wonder how many hits you can take." She vanished again in an instant.

"I... I can't win this." I knew that I had no chance of defeating her. I can escape definitely but Yefa... "Tsk. I'll have to risk it. Sprint!" I began running to the animals that surrounded the monster earlier.

"What are you thinking?" The monster reappeared.

"A way to escape." I grabbed the head of one of the animal and then, "Telepathy, every skill I have!" There are a lot of errors that popped in my screen because some skills couldn't be passed. But the pig I'm holding suddenly moved around trying to escape, its tears coming out from its eyes and doing everything it can to leave my grasp. After all the skills were transferred, with a thrust of my Bloodlust, it imbued the blood to my weapon and killed the animal in one hit.

"Are you imbuing your anger to my animals? Heh."

"No, this will be my way to escape here."

"Escape? As if you can. Invisibility." She vanished again in the darkness.

I began using sprint and transferring all of my skills to all the animals I could find using Telepathy and killing them in one shot using Bloodlust.

"Take this!" The monster suddenly thrusted its weapon to me and instantly broke my barrier in one hit. It stabbed through my shoulder.

"ARGH!"

"I don't know what you're doing but this ends now." She raised her dagger.

"No it won't!" I grabbed her head and, "TELEPATHY! Every skill I could transfer, do it!"

[Transferred Heal, Great Heal, Enslavement, Breaker, Strength Boost and Berserker]

[Telepathy leveled up to Level 2, can now talk with 20 or more people in one connection, can now transfer unique skills.]

"ARGH! WHAT IS THIS?! Hundreds... No, thousands of information are flowing through my mind! ARGHH!" She loosened her grip at me and I escaped her grasp.

I began running towards Yefa. I grabbed my greatshield and put it in my inventory.

Finally, I grabbed Yefa's head, "Telepathy, Insanity Immunity!"
