Seven Sins System Chapter 274. Baelthor
She pouted, her red lips forming an expression of faux disappointment. "But I was looking forward to a treat," she said, her voice still dripping with seduction.
"I'm sure there's something deliciously rotten in the kitchen for you to indulge in later," I retorted, unwilling to be swayed by her charm. I had learned the hard way not to underestimate Baelthor's unpredictable demeanor.
The atmosphere in the room shifted abruptly as the woman's disappointment gave way to an unsettling silence. Her transformation from a seductive beauty to a menacing figure sent a chill down my spine. Despite her change in appearance, I could still sense the presence of Baelthor's true form lurking behind her façade. His red eyes bored into mine, filled with a hunger that made me wary.
"Don't be sad," I tried to reason with her, though I knew that reasoning with Baelthor in any form was a risky endeavor.
"Sad? No…" she repeated, her voice now deeper and more sinister before a malicious grin spread across her face. "I'm hungry!" she declared, her voice now resonating with a malevolent tone.
The sudden switch from a sultry woman to a malevolent demon caught me off guard, but I refused to let fear dictate my actions. I had dealt with Baelthor's unpredictable nature before and knew that staying calm was essential to surviving any interaction with him.
I could feel a sudden shift in the air. It was almost imperceptible, but I had learned to be hyper-aware of my surroundings, especially in the presence of dangerous entities like him. My instincts screamed at me to move, to brace myself for an imminent threat.
And then, I felt it. A cold sensation against my side, as if something was slithering its way toward me. I knew what it was without even looking. Poisonous blades. Fifty of them. Baelthor's deadly arsenal.
Without a moment's hesitation, I sprang into action. I moved with speed and precision, narrowly avoiding the deadly blades as they shot toward me like deadly arrows. Each blade carried the potential to inflict a fatal wound, and I had to be at the top of my game to evade them.
I twisted and turned, ducked and leaped, using my agility and telekinesis to deflect the blades away from me. The room became a deadly dance of death as I dodged and weaved through the onslaught.
As the last of the blades whizzed past me, I finally had a moment to catch my breath. My body was tense, my senses heightened, as I glared at Baelthor. His wicked grin had widened, clearly enjoying the thrill of the hunt. He was a sadistic creature, delighting in the pain and fear of others.
"You're getting slow, tentacled kid," he taunted, his malevolent voice sending shivers down my spine.
I smirked, refusing to let his taunts get to me. "I'm just getting started," I retorted, my determination fueling my resolve to end this confrontation.
With a flick of my wrist, I used my telekinesis, creating a swirling vortex of invisible energy around me. The room crackled with raw power as I directed the force toward Baelthor, trying to subdue him and bring him back to his senses.
But Baelthor was no ordinary opponent. He was a master of deception and manipulation, and his powers matched his cunning. He easily evaded my attacks, disappearing into the shadows before reappearing behind me.
Before I could react, he struck, his claws swung at me.
As Baelthor's razor-sharp claws came hurtling toward me, my instincts kicked into overdrive.
"Wrath!" I commanded, and in response, my wrath tentacles burst forth from my back with a furious intensity.
The tentacles, each tipped with deadly blades, extended and swirled around me like a menacing shield. With lightning-fast reflexes, I maneuvered the tentacles, using them to deflect Baelthor's attack. The clash of his claws against the wrathful blades sent sparks flying, filling the air with sizzling energy.
The room around us seemed to tremble with the intensity of our battle. The ancient books on the dusty shelves shook, and the dimly glowing magic crystal flickered with each powerful movement. But amidst the chaos, I remained focused on the task at hand – to subdue the dangerous demon before me.
Baelthor's malevolent grin never faltered, and he continued to strike with relentless determination. Each swing of his claws was met with an equally forceful defense from my wrath tentacles. The two of us were locked in a deadly dance, a dance that would determine the fate of the Shadow Realm.
My heart pounded in my chest. But I couldn't afford to show any weakness in front of Baelthor. He thrived on fear and uncertainty, and I wouldn't give him the satisfaction of seeing me falter. I couldn't use my area skill either since this tower would consume it.
The battle raged on. I noticed a pattern in Baelthor's attacks. He was not just lashing out randomly; he was targeting specific areas, trying to find a weakness in my defense. I had to stay one step ahead of him, anticipate his moves, and respond with precision.
I assessed the situation. Baelthor was relentless, and I knew that if I didn't find a way to gain the upper hand, the battle could quickly turn in his favor. I had to act fast and think smart.
I glanced around the room. My eyes fell on the ancient book that Baelthor had been holding earlier. It was worn out and tattered, but there was something about it that caught my attention. It was clear that the book held some significance to him.
In a risky move, I directed my wrath tentacles toward the book. The blades at the tips sliced through the dusty air, aiming for the ancient tome. Baelthor's eyes widened in alarm as he realized my intention, and he lunged toward the book to protect it.
I used this distraction to my advantage. While his focus was on defending the book, I quickly shifted my position, preparing for my next move.
