Empress' Evolution

Chapter 99: Kind and Merciful

"What is happening?" Lilith asked as she showed a confused expression,

"I have seen your determined heart and quick thinking; I cannot think of any other daemon who can lead my Tribe and me to a better future. My job as the leader stem from the fact that I need to lead our pact to a better life, and I can see our future being in your hands, Priestess."

Lilith stood tall on the steps of her Temple, her feet left the ground, and then she asked the bowing Wolves, "My level is lower than yours. I am quite frankly weaker than you are. But, you leader, however, sees me as someone who wants to command and lead you to a better life I shall accept but not at the cost of anyone's willingness, to those who are undecided and unwilling to follow me, stand up and face me!"

"Priestess, we"

The Werewolf Leader tried to interject; however, Lilith looked her in the eyes and then heard the loli Priestess speak, "Sister, if you truly wish to accept me as your leader, then speak no further. I, Lilith Qurenara, wish to honor your traditions and culture. If anyone is unwilling to follow me, then stand up or forever hold the fact that you are cowards who cannot even face someone of my level!"

Lilith's words pierced the hearts of many Werewolves. One, two three, seven, and twenty-six Werewolves stood up.

Their levels ranging from 170 to 205 they were all stronger than the Priestess hovering in the air.

The Werewolf Leader turned to see the unwilling pact members.

The Werewolves saw her disbelief and quickly announced, "I apologize, Leader, but I cannot see the greatness you speak of in this child, and now that I have been challenged, I feel like I can now announce the emotions welling up in my Warrior's Heart."

That Warrior turned to Lilith once again, "Lilith Qurenara, the Priestess, I accept your challenge!"

With a simple explanation and an acceptance of the challenge, more and more Werewolves shouted to accept the challenge. Lilith smiled at the sight of so many opponents.

"To those who are challenging, I can say that you are looking down on me, correct? Hahaha, how fun this is. It had been a while since I got to play. However, our Village had yet to create a single Arena. Thus, you should follow me out, there, we shall fight."

Lilith's words were inconsistent. At one point, she seemed like a child who wanted nothing more than to play with these people, and on the other, she was someone who respected them.

Most of the daemons present took note of this and registered it as the Priestess showing her age, but to those who were disrespected, they began to feel irritated, and this fight seemed more justifiable in their minds than before.

They exited the Village, and on the clearing that separated the Forest and them, Lilith stood in front of more than twenty Werewolves.

"Is this really the only group that wants to challenge me? Hmmm" Lilith began to think, and then she landed on the ground; she showed them an innocent smile, "this should be enough as a handicap."

Her words grated the challengers' ears, and as Killa who went ahead and presented himself as the officiator of this fight. He began announcing the rules of this bout, "No killing, no crippling, no"

The Village Daemons listened to his words and began to smile. Dhampy was together with the Shadow Troops and the Army, "What this fight, this will let you know how to use your minds in a fight. Thought you do not have an ounce of the Priestess' abilities, watch her and see if you can pick anything up."

"YES!" The loud answers of the Army echoed while the Shadow Troops kept silent in the shadows.

Luna held Cerberus in her embrace. She found Cerberus' fleshy body pleasant to hug, so she had it with her frequently. Cerberus was asleep like always. It was not worried about anything.

The Werewolf Leader saw this everyone's calmness and was baffled by this. Turning to Luna for answers, she asked, "Why are you so calm? Are you not worried about your Priestess? Is she not someone incapable of fighting?"

Luna turned to her and simply smiled because the one who answered was Chief, who appeared all of a sudden from behind, "The Priestess, incapable of fighting? Huh, what nonsense, well, that may seem so to you, Werewolves, but to us, the Army, the Workers, and the Shadow Troops, the Priestess is someone who can go to the frontlines without hesitation."

Disregarding the fact that the Werewolf Leader's fur all stood up as Chief talked to her, she remembered the detail that Killa boasted about Lilith, 'The Priestess was someone who went into the frontlines and fought without fear ' recounting the words she could remember, she now grew curious as to what might happen.

Killa finished reciting the words and then, shouted "FIGHT!"

The Werewolves moved with their fangs out and claws extended out, Lilith stood there observing them, and as the circling Werewolves pounced at her, she didn't move and instead used ninety percent of her mana to cast a free spell utilizing the knowledge she had of an active spell, "Multiple Earth Walls!"

With her as the center, stone slabs that were one meter wide and three meters tall appeared sporadically, yet circular formation.

'Seventeen... lucky' Lilith smiled at this result.

The Werewolves were startled but this, but they quickly recovered and just moved around the walls. However, Lilith saw them and promptly used the five percent of her remaining ten percent to utilize Nature Element and have weeds surrounding them all grow tall.

This impeded the Werewolves' vision, but it didn't matter as they already got Lilith's scent. They weaved around the stone slabs as they moved through tall weeds.

However, as they reached three meters away from Lilith, what they saw was a bright red-orange light igniting the weeds into a might blaze that caught every Werewolf moving through it.

All of them reacted in pain, and as they got distracted, the sound of Thunder Clapping echoed in their ears.

Using their screams to locate them, Lilith, who was now a Tribulation Leopard, bared her fangs on their shoulders, incapacitating them with an electric shock before moving to the next target with fast movement using Lightning Feet.

The scream of pain echoed from the Werewolf challengers the Werewolf Leader watched as Lilith dominate the elite warriors she was so proud of, "What kind of being is she?" she asked without knowing.

"She's our kind and merciful, Priestess, who leads our way of living." Luna answered with a smile.

Werewolf Leader looked ahead and watched Lilith's domination and then thought to herself, 'I don't know about kind and merciful... but she's indeed a Priestess capable of leading.'
