Chapter 310 - Submitting A Subhuman Warrior
-----
The Kangaroo Subhuman Tribe Chief awaited Noah and his group alongside Rodrigo and Liam.
Noah noticed that her level of power was probably upper S-Rank.
Impressive.
For people that didn't even live in advanced societies such as the Sectors to grow this strong… It seemed rather obvious as he had already investigated enough about Subhumans, but they were also able to absorb Cores, unlike it was falsely believed in human societies, where it was said that they could not.
In fact… Subhumans were more or less better humans in every way possible. They were humans that not only gained a gifted power after undergoing mutation, but they also gained a greater physique and more talent, gaining superhuman and beast-like strength, and even good magic affinity.
The woman in here, Acathea, was an excellent magician. And no, not of Skills that resembled magic, but of true magic.
Despite her intimidating appearance and her position, however, she was around 12 years of age.
Pure Subhumans grew at an incredible speed compared to Humans, as they adapted better to these conditions, humans that took over 14 years to mature would easily die in the apocalypse if there were not societies and sectors.
However, Subhumans all around the world had been proven to be able to become capable of walking at around two months of age. After 5 months, they can speak fluently and after 7 months, they mature… Of course, this can even be shortened even more if they evolve and naturally age faster, similar to how it happened with Noah and his party after evolving.
Of course, if they grew so fast, how was it that they didn't take over the world already? Well, they only had mating seasons in-between years, so they could not mate regularly… resources were scarce so they didn't make too many children either, and monsters were dangerous, even more in the wild, so many children that had yet to learn how to fight or escape would easily get killed and eaten.
Due to this, despite their fast growth, they had not taken over the world or something…
The woman in front of Noah, Acathea, was comparable to a peak S-Rank and was the strongest of her tribe, which included Rat-kin, Kangaroo-kin, and Bird-kin Subhumans.
She was the oldest of the tribe as well… Due to many reasons, the original subhumans, who used to be human, had mostly died after leaving offspring, which multiplied around the continent.
After years of surviving and growing stronger by exploring gates and hunting and eating mutated beasts to strengthen herself, she gathered many small families or groups of subhumans and formed one of the biggest tribes in Australia.
Former humans were non-existent here, sadly, they all had been wiped out as Australia was the place where the miasma wave hit the hardest due to the position of the Earth at the moment of impact.
…It was as if a giant nuclear bomb hit the entire continent, so it was natural that they all died or were either mutated into mutated beasts or subhumans.
There were also many forests filled with monstrous creatures, living forests, and more, which made it all the more terrifying…
But these people had somehow survived and got this far, Noah thought that they would make excellent soldiers and warriors. Ideal servants!
Noah's charm acted almost instantly in the woman, as she felt a bit paralyzed by it but quickly calmed herself again.
"You're Noah, right?" she asked.
"That's me. And you must be Acathea? Is it?" asked Noah.
"Indeed. I agree to your offer if by converting my people into your race, they can survive this world and… the end that you spoke about… then go on, but- You must fight and win against me!" said Acathea.
"Eh?"
Everyone around Noah glanced at her with disbelief.
Is she stupid or something?
Noah sighed. He knew how it was. The strong rule after all. If Noah wanted to convince her, he had to fight and show off his power.
But his power was so overwhelming he created a gigantic cloud of darkness over him…
Yet… she still wanted to fight.
"Okay, let's fight. I won't kill you because I like your bravery, it is commendable," said Noah.
"Good! Come at me with everything you got!" said Acathea, as she enhanced her entire body with several body-strengthening magic spells that surprised even Noah. Her aura suddenly began to blaze with pure magic and fire attribute magic at that! Additionally, she activated some skills that formed an exoskeleton around her, as an armor of sorts…
"(Impressive, she's amazing at magic and her skill set seems quite good as well… A good addition to my servants…)" thought Noah.
"Very well then. I said I won't kill you, but that doesn't mean I won't crush the rest of your limbs for being so daring!" said Noah, rushing towards Acathea as she released a gigantic blast of an infernal flare right in front of him!
CLAAAASH!
Acathea smiled as she thought of her victory! No matter how scary his aura was, he couldn't possibly survive being burned by her flames, which had even melted whole monsters alive!
However…
Flash!
Noah waved his hands as the fire dissipated, he reached Acathea and punched her in the stomach.
CLASH!
"UAAGH…!"
She vomited a mouthful of blood, as she fell over the ground.
However, she quickly tried to fight back somehow, but Noah sat down over her back and raised her leg.
"One leg…"
CRASH!
"GGRRYAARRGGH…!"
He mercilessly took away one leg just like that, a river of blood began to come out of her horrifying wound…
"Another leg…"
He quickly took away the other leg, as Acathea screamed in agony.
"Left-arm…"
CRASH!
"Unnnnggrraaagggh…!"
"And right arm…"
CRASH!
"NNnnggh…! Aaaaghhggh…!"
Acathea was left in a similar way that Adamantine once was…
"You surrender?" asked Noah.
"Hahhh… hahhh… Unngh…! Y… Yes…" sighed Acathea.
"Oh? You can resist the pain? Commendable! Become a Dhampir," said Noah, penetrating her neck with his fingernail as he injected his blood directly into her bloodstream!
A few seconds afterward… Acathea turned into a Dhampir, and her limbs grew back…
"Such… amazing power…" she said, kneeling before Noah.
And just like that, the issue was done with.
