She Belongs To The Devil

Nigel raised his sword above his head and leaped in the air. He covered a distance unimaginable by normal humans. And when he was about to land, he swung down his sword on Adeline who was not backing away from where she stood.

Adeline blocked the attack from her brother by holding her sword above her head.

The two swords clanged against each other. And because of the force that Nigel was exerting, Adeline's sword shattered right in the middle.

"Careful!" Theodore shouted from the side as he saw the fragments of sword directly falling on Adeline's head.

However, before the metals could hurt Adeline, she jumped back and avoided the possible injury.

"Are you alright?" Nigel asked while scanning Adeline's body.

Adeline threw away the broken sword from her hand and smiled. "Never better," she shouted and charged at Nigel without any weapons in her hand.

Nigel dropped his guard a little seeing that his sister was unarmed. However, that was a mistake.

Adeline hit Nigel with a full-powered roundhouse kick right on his head. The impact was so great that Nigel collapsed to the floor and banged his head.

Adeline felt a cold shiver in her heat thinking that she might have taken things a little too seriously. She crouched down and asked Nigel, "Brother, are you hurt badly?"

However, Nigel gave a low growl to Adeline and immediately jumped back on his feet. He waited for Adeline to take her instance as well and said, "A single kick can't put me down, sister. Don't worry!"

Nigel threw away his sword and fisted his hands in front of his face. And then he asked Adeline, "Come at me with everything you have. I will do the same. I guess we both have improved a lot since we last fought."

"I agree," Adeline smirked and guarded her head with both of her fists.

The two of them circled around each other for a second and both of them charged at each other with their fists. Adeline dodged the incoming uppercut and landed a sharp fist on Nigel's gut.

A low grumble escaped his throat. Nigel skidded a few inches away but managed to hold his ground.

Adeline came at him with a kick. Nigel grabbed her leg and swung her around as though she was a cotton pillow. And he threw her to the far end of the platform.

Rather than landing roughly on the ground, Adeline stepped on a post and pushed herself towards Nigel. She landed a punch on Nigel's face and sent him flying away.

But Nigel instantly did a backflip and got up on his feet. Adeline was coming at him again. And this time, he dodged her kick and his uppercut matched her jaw.

Adeline got thrown in the air and crashed on the floor. "Arghh!" Adeline grunted and pressed her jaw where she got a small bruise. A small crack had appeared on the rocky floor but nothing happened to Adeline.

Adeline pushed herself up and glared at her brother, now with an intention to end this fight. She threw a barrage of punches on her brother, most of which he managed to block at a great speed. Both of them were already sweating and out of breath. But they were getting nowhere near winning against the other.

The fight looked like they had reached a stalemate.

And just when General Osmond was thinking of calling a tie, Adeline grabbed her brother's hand and flipped him down. She pinned Nigel down and with a swift motion of her hand, she pulled out a dagger from her thigh and pointed it at Nigel's throat.

Adeline gave a smile to Nigel and teased him, "Looks like your habit of losing to me hasn't gone yet."

"Oh, but I beg to differ." Nigel gave a sly smile to Adeline and immediately began his transformation.

"Hey! I already won!" Adeline wanted to retaliate but it was already too late. She could already hear Nigel's bones breaking.

She swiftly got up from him fearing that her brother's transformation process would get disrupted by her weight on him. And she stood a little further away from him so that he wouldn't be able to surprise attack her.

Adeline watched in amazement as her brother transformed into a huge wolf right in front of her eyes.

"Whoa! Now that I think of it, I never saw him in his wolf form, did I? I had just imagined how he would look based on Theodore's description… But he looks far more magnificent than my imagination."

This was the first time she was seeing her brother's full transformation. The last time she saw Nigel transforming was when he had accidentally attacked her with his claws. She had just seen her brother's mangled body at that time and Theodore had to instantly teleport the puppies away from her as her blood was driving both of them crazy.

And while she was praising her brother's look with wide eyes and open jaw, she forgot that she was in the middle of the fight.

Nigel leaped forward in the air. His fluffy fur soared gallantly because of the gentle wind that caressed his body.

Adeline kept on watching her brother, still in a daze. "I wonder why I never asked him to show me his wolf form," she thought to herself while holding her breath.

"Adeline! Want to get crushed or what?" she heard Rhea's panicked voice from a little further away.

Adeline finally snapped out of her daze just when Nigel's paw was inches away from reaching her body. She dodged the claws and slid under the wolf to get to the safe side.

Nigel gently landed and immediately turned around and howled. The howl was so loud that it now attracted the attention of a few platoons who had already completed their mock battle.

"Wait! The Princess is going against the wolf Prince?" one of the soldiers screamed with excitement.

Those who had finished the mock battle ran closer to the platform to get a better view of the fight.

Nigel went on the attack mode again. He ran towards Adeline.

And Adeline also ran towards the fluffy wolf.

Nigel leaped in the air again while aiming both of his paws on Adeline. But he made sure not to reveal his claws as his claw venom was lethal to humans. He just wanted to pin Adeline down and finish the battle.

Adeline also leaped in the air and held out her fingers as though they were her claws.

Both of them clashed midair and tried to push each other down.

But both of them landed on the floor, still using their whole strength to push each other to defeat. They looked as though they were arm wrestling.

The two of them kept on going back and forth, attacking and defending themselves for quite a while.

However, it was already evident to all the onlookers that their strength was equal.

"I had only heard the rumors that our Princess was the strongest among all the Royal children. Now I know they were not just rumors." One of the soldiers praised Adeline.

And the other agreed, "Yeah, look at her go toe-to-toe with the wolf Prince."

Rhea was clasping her hands together and was looking at Adeline in awe. "I never imagined that she would be of an equal match to Nigel even in his wolf form…"

Rhea had a wide smile on her face when she thought, "This essentially means that she is as strong as the alpha."
