Taming The Villainesses novel Chapter 231

(EP-231.1) Revelation #2

231 – Demon Monk’s Revelation #2

Flap, Flap-.

Each time the fan was shaken, the fallen dead would come back to ‘life,’ reassembling their bones and flesh. It felt like enduring an endless horde.

I felt like I had already defeated dozens, or even hundreds of corpses, but this battle was dragging on with no end in sight.

“Theo-nim, I’ll handle the undead. Please focus on dealing with the necromancer...!”

“Got it!”

And so I left the undead to Balan.

Balan reached into the air and chanted a gloomy incantation. The blue glow in the eyes of the dead turned red. Then they began to lash out at each other in internal conflict, arms reaching and legs kicking.

━Graaaa-!

━Geiaaaaa-!

Crunch, crack.

“...da...?”

The necromancer tilted her head as if she couldn’t comprehend the situation. Soon, realizing that Balan was taking control of the undead, she unfurled her fan again.

“Nope, you can’t!”

─Mero Mero Beam-!

“...Ga...!”

She jolted as the purple lightning shot by the tail wand struck her.

“Grrrrr...!”

However, because of the necromancer’s strong will, she was able to struggle and fight it.

Crackle, crackle. The purple lightning seemed to coil around her like a chain. Finally, with a sound like glass breaking, she exhaled a misty breath.

“Hrrrrr-!”

She was clearly furious.

Honestly, I was a bit taken aback, as I didn’t expect her to resist my Mero Mero Beam. The spell still needed a lot of improvements, it seemed.

No, there was no time to dwell on such. _{freewebnøvel.com}

Surung-.

The necromancer drew a long, thin sword then started charging at me.

“Grrr-!!!”

“Eup!”

Whoosh-. I ⊛ Nоvеlιght ⊛ (Read the full story) quickly ducked to avoid the blade that nearly sliced my throat. A moment’s delay, and my head would have fallen off!

However, her inability to contain her rage and the fact that she charged at me was a good thing. Staying low, I quickly wrapped my arms around her waist.

“Ha-!?”

Her waist was so slender that it fitted snugly in my hands. While in her embrace, I could smell the sweet scent of peaches and apple mint at the same time.

Suddenly, I felt a deep longing and hesitation.

Because of this momentary distraction, I vividly felt a fiery sensation pierce through my flesh and shoulder muscle.

Thunk!

“Ha, ha-!”

“Grrr-!”

I never thought I’d get stabbed in my life.

“The, Theo-nim!”

Balan’s shout and the searing pain snapped me back to reality.

I was well aware that this wasn’t real. This wasn’t reality, and the woman in front of me wasn’t the person I knew.

I knew.

I knew it all along.

But to hide the unease in my heart, I hugged her slender waist even tighter.

When the storm had finally subsided, all the undead were reduced to mere fragments that littered the ground.

“Th, that was incredible magic! A tempest that rips the world apart. Even the formidable necromancer couldn’t withstand it.”

Balan clicked her tongue as she looked at the necromancer lying motionless on the ground. I, on the other hand, calmly suppressed the myriad of emotions swirling within me.
