"Shouldn't it already be time for you to give up?"
BAAAM!!
Heisenberg kicked Annabelle with all his strength, throwing her dozens of meters away and making her collapse over a large piece of ice, shattering it into pieces.
"Ugh… Not… yet…!"
Annabelle recklessly stood back up; her entire body was covered with wounds and blood, and the black armor covering her body was slowly breaking apart into pieces.
She was running low on Mana and her Demonic Energy too. Annabelle had fought with everything she had these last ten minutes.
At first, Heisenberg thought she was equal to him in a few aspects, but now it seems to be the opposite.
"You're quite weak... You had a strong boost of power once, but now? It seems you are incapable of keeping your body healthy or preserving your stamina and mana." Her brother said it with a cold tone of voice. "The weak shall be disposed of."
He summoned ten swords made of bones and flesh from his body and fired them at Annabelle at the same time.
"I won't let anybody have you, Annabelle! If you don't obey me and stay by my side, Then I will take you down myself!"
With ruthless and coldhearted words, his powerful swords reached Annabelle in a split second, the girl conjuring barriers made of her powers, which shattered one another.
CRAASH! CRAASH! CRAASH!
However, only four were stopped, while six of them managed to reach her. One of them pierced her left arm, almost amputating it; another, her right leg, pushing her down; a third, her stomach; and a fourth, her right shoulder!
"Gyaaarrgghh…!"
With an agonizing scream, Annabelle collapsed, splattering blood everywhere. The other two swords left hovered over her head as Heisenberg slowly made his way towards her.
"Annabelle… My precious sister." He spoke. "I will always keep you within me."
"H-Huh?" Annabelle's eyes widened as she saw her brother's arms distort into countless monstrous jaws.
"There is something better than killing you. I will devour you while you're alive. Like this, you will become part of my body. Do you like the idea? See? Your brother still loves you and is compassionate. I do have a merciful side to me."
"W-What?! No…! S-STOP…! STOP!"
Annabelle's face was distorted in horror; she never imagined her brother would ever utter such insane words. He was truly a madman, and she finally realized she should have never loved him as a brother.
"Y-You're insane! You're not my brother! You're a MONSTER!"
She tried to fight back, crawling away by growing very weak spider-like legs from her back, only for the two swords floating around her to cut them off instantly.
SLAASH! SLAASH! SLAASH!
"Aaarrgh!"
"Enough with this cat-and-mouse game. This is the end."
Heisenberg watched the rest of Annabelle's friends fight against Shade. Kevin's right leg was broken, and he could barely move. Sara's entire body seemed translucent and weak, as if she had lost too much of her soul, and Baihe was bleeding all over, covering her wounds with ice to stop her from dying of blood loss.
Shade was strong enough to fight them all at the same time, mostly thanks to all the accumulated exhaustion they had from all the previous fights. Heisenberg had to admit that Beelzebub's idea to wear them down first was good.
"Your friends will meet a similar end." Heisenberg's jaws descended toward Annabelle. "Don't worry, I will make sure to be quick so it doesn't hurt. Become one with me, my dear Annabelle."
With his crimson eyes filled with greed and gluttony, Annabelle despaired, hope slowly fading from her eyes.
"Anna… I'm sorry…"
CRUNCH!!!
Darkness engulfed her completely, making her think the worst.
Spark… ZAAAP!
However, the sound of electricity quickly woke her up, and she found herself still alive. Heisenberg's arm, though, was not so much.
SLASH!
A Sword Ki made of lightning and light slashed through it in a single second, turning the arm into ashes right after. The electricity then exploded, transforming into dozens of golden blades.
"W-What the…?!"
Heisenberg was unable to react in time due to the speed of the lightning. The Golden Thunder Blades pierced his entire body, detonating into deadly explosions that reduced half his body to ashes.
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
"AAAAGGHHH…!!!"
Annabelle heard her brother scream in genuine agony for the first time as he desperately stepped back, his exposed flesh, bones, and innards slowly twisting and regenerating, attempting to patch themselves back.
"Sorry for being late, Annabelle."
And the voice of her dearest friend echoed as the smoke dissipated; the silhouette of nobody else but Anna appeared amidst it, her eyes blazing with rage.
"A-Anna…?! Gugh…!"
Annabelle couldn't even muster more words as she vomited blood; there was a sword stuck in her stomach, which was already killing her slowly, despite her supernatural vitality as a chimera.
"Grit your teeth; this is going to hurt a bit."
Anna swiftly pulled out all the swords in a second through a strange, crimson Aura that surged from her body, resembling red snakes.
"Shaaah!"
They opened their jaws and devoured the swords, disintegrating them in mere seconds. Anna knew that if she took them off with her hands, she could end up worsening the wounds.
"And now… {Synthesis}"
Anna fused a bottle with a red liquid and several herbs she had gathered in her first dungeon exploration, which was in the hundreds.
FLASH!
[You have synthesized several [Medicinal Herbs] with [Constellation's Blood Bottle (??? Grade)]!]
[The Effects of the [Jester's Reverse Fortune (S Rank Privilege)] Privilege have been activated. Your Luck has been reversed!]
[The chances of synthesis success have increased from 12% to 88% due to your high luck!]
[Success!]
[You have created the [Star Elixir (SSS Grade)] x1!]
An aura of starlight surged from the new bottle created, containing a golden and blue-colored liquid, which Anna quickly fed to Annabelle.
"Gulp, gulp… Ahh!"
FLAAASH!
In a single second, all her lethal wounds were instantly healed, and she even regained her entire Stamina, Health, and Mana!
"W-What was that?!" Annabelle cried. "Y-You made such an amazing item! And I drank it?! EEH?! It must cost millions!"
"It doesn't matter that much; I've got plenty of materials to make it again." Anna smiled. "However, because of its strong components, if you drink another one, you'll probably die."
"W-What?!" Annabelle was once again shocked.
The item Anna made was a special elixir made using the constellation's blood, specifically the blood of Uroboros. The first time it is drunk, it will work as an amazing elixir that'll make someone stronger and heal them of mostly anything.
However, if it is drinking a second or even a third time, the accumulation of energies the body cannot process or absorb will kill most people.
It would over heal their bodies until they formed tumors all over and exploded into pieces. Anna remembers its effects because an Evil Alchemist used them against Jack when he reached the Realm Beyond.
Not even Anna was sure she would survive a third drink of this lethal elixir, so she would only use it in the worst-case scenarios, such as Annabelle almost dying.
"Y-You…!"
Heisenberg roared, glaring in disbelief as Anna not only stopped him but completely healed his sister, saving her from death's door by a hair.
"Heisenberg, right? Although we met each other when you tried to kill that old politician, it seems this is the first time we can speak formally." Anna greeted the psychopath without any fear in her eyes.
"Such a little rat, with no fear against the strong…" Heisenberg roared, his wounds regenerating as many arms grew out of his back. "You're one of the reasons why I must reconstruct this world, to remake it into a true and honest world… Disrespectful bastards like you, who have no fear against the strong, will be the first ones to be crushed like ants."
"I know you were once an innocent child that was taken away and used and experimented with to become a chimera…" Anna sighed. "But that doesn't justify you trying to kill countless innocents. What happened to you wasn't their fault; it was the fault of the bastards who did it, Heisenberg. Trying to vent your anger to people that have nothing to do with it will only make you grow into a hypocrite."
"Hypocrite?" He roared. "That's rich coming from someone who stole my sister and Scarlet from me! Someone who killed my siblings and brainwashed my dear Annabelle! You have NO RIGHT to tell me what is hypocritical or not when you're just as much of a monster as I am!"
"Maybe," Anna said, looking straight into his eyes. "But at least I'm not planning on committing genocide."
"SHUT UP! It's not genocide! It is the Dawn of a New World!" Heisenberg continued slowly walking towards Anna.
"Brother…" Annabelle sighed.
"He's insane, Annabelle," Anna said. "Don't believe a word he's saying... He's a terrible influence on you and a BAD brother!"
"How dare you…?!" Heisenberg roared, rushing towards Anna in the span of a second.
His powers erupted through his Aura, as he resembled a blur of dark red and black colors swirling around one another.
FLASH!
"I'LL RIP YOU TO SHREDS!"
"After fighting a Constellation, a third-rate Villain like you is no longer intimidating."
Heisenberg's claws were about to rip her to shreds, only for Anna to divide herself into dozens of doppelgangers made of light.
"{Celestial Mirages}"
