The Invincible Full-Moon System

But the cursed energy he sensed right now exceeded his expectation greatly.

\'How can it gather so much cursed energy way above its league?\', Uncle Isniu thought while sweating profusely, but then his eyes widened. \'No, it\'s quite rare... But there\'s no other explanation, that Cursed Bee must have a cursed object inside of it that fueled this much-cursed energy\'

Knowing exactly what they are dealing with is not what they initially thought, Uncle Isniu moved.

Commanding the other Dark Elves to infuse their dark nature energy into him, Uncle Isniu quickly harnesses the dark nature energy and creates a canopy of trees to protect Adhara from the incoming attack. Gistella also joins in right before the cursed beams hit.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Although the cursed beams are very fast, they are not as fast as the cursed beam earlier.

Despite the ridiculous amount of cursed energy that the Cursed Bee managed to gather, it still sacrificed the speed of the cursed beams to focus more on the number and power. Clearly, the taunt from Adhara made it puts its effort into trying to kill her.

Because of that, they managed to help Adhara in time before the cursed beams rains down on her.

With the combined effort of Uncle Isniu and Gistella that are trying their hardest to block the powerful cursed beams that are akin to rain from the sky, the barriers are starting to be overwhelmed as there\'s no end to the cursed beams.

Under the huge strain they are currently feeling, blood leaks from the corner of their mouths.

Each one of the cursed beams hits like a powerful blow to the gut that made their bodies weaker and weaker, the cursed energy also spreads through the barrier and renders their barriers more fragile than before.

As they were trying to hold on, both of them suddenly heard a shout.

"Leave it!! Don\'t meddle in my fight!!"

From the center of the explosions, Adhara shouted angrily while looking at the barriers.

Adhara is already resolute enough to take the duel against the Cursed Bee, and being protected like this made her angry as it was akin to telling her that she\'s not strong enough to fight this Cursed Bee, or even saying she\'s not strong enough to protect the castle.

But despite her shout, Uncle Isniu didn\'t bother and kept holding on desperately.

Out of nowhere, the explosions from the cursed beams started to get even heavier which made him glance at Gistella with widened eyes, "What are you doing?! Why are you not helping me protect her from the cursed beams?!"

"Stop it, we\'re just humiliating her if we try to protect her", Gistella replied with a light sigh.

Looking back at the center of the barrage of explosions, she can see Adhara glaring at them with her ferocious eyes that showed the unbeatable confidence and resoluteness that she has right now. "I\'m going to trust her on this. Even if the Alpha is not here, she\'s the Female Alpha and there must be a reason why the Alpha her the Female Alpha. Take down your barrier...", she added with a warning tone.

Uncle Isniu was flabbergasted, he can\'t believe the situation he was in right now.

"Pride of the Werewolves... I still don\'t get it but okay, I\'ll do as you say"

Hearing the warning tone from Gistella that shows that she would force him to take down the barrier if he didn\'t listen, Uncle Isniu sigh helplessly as he glanced back at the barrage of cursed beams. Reluctantly, he retracted back his energy.

Adhara looks up and saw the barrier disappearing, her eyes then flashed before she roared.

With only one arm, gashes fill her legs and entire body, and blood can be seen clearly on her white furs, she roared at the sky thunderously as if she was challenging the Gods themselves. Showing her fearsome nature right at this moment.

Boom!

Immediately after the barrier disappeared, the cursed beams hit the ground powerfully.

Gistella, Uncle Isniu, and the other Dark Elves can feel the earth rumbling under the endless barrage of cursed beams, the sheer destructive power each cursed beam brought was worrying. Adhara\'s silhouette disappeared inside the explosions, nowhere to be seen.

But the clanging sound occasionally resounded, showing that Adhara is putting up a fight.

Looking at the ground where Adhara stood earlier, the Cursed Bee screeched powerfully once again in the sky as it gathered more cursed energy into its pointer, intending to finish the fight with one last powerful cursed beam.

Swoosh!!

The onlookers saw a curse beam thicker than the others fired right at the ground.

Realizing that the last cursed beam is way more powerful than the ones before, the others quickly jumped back to avoid the impact while Gistella created a blue barrier to protect them from the shockwave that would violently attack them right after.

Kaboom!!

A great part of the open field and the Humming Damned Forest were completely destroyed.

Just like peeling an apple with a very sharp knife, the ground\'s crust was peeled by the explosions as the shockwave expanded quite far and wide. Many were absolutely surprised by the sheer destructive power, and becomes greatly concerned about Adhara.

For the Dark Elves, they are here to help so if Adhara died then it\'s also a loss for them.

Even Gistella that seems to be confident in Adhara\'s ability earlier has a hint of doubt in her expression, that last explosion of cursed energy was too powerful for anyone to sustain. Despite the blessing from Uncle Isniu, it\'s still doubtful that she can survive such a thing as they can only hope.

Similar to the onlookers, the Cursed Bee also stopped and wait for the smoke to recede.

Pshhh...

What was left after the smoke slowly being blown away by the wind was the sizzling cursed energy that scorch the ground, and also the destroyed mutated flower and grass that has turned black. Everything succumb under the endless cursed beams.

As the smoke at the center recede, the tension in the air started rising.

Everyone wanted to know the condition Adhara is in right now, if she was still standing then the Cursed Bee will be in trouble. But if she died then Uncle Isniu alongside the Dark Elves, and Gistella would fight the Cursed Bee again.

Due to the curse, they can\'t run away from the Cursed Bee as they are already engaged in the fight.

Not long after Uncle Isniu, the Dark Elves, and Gistella widened their eyes when they saw Adhara\'s body face down on the ground with sizzling cursed energy burning her back. Her condition is so bad that her blood evaporated and the wounds are burnt.

\'I knew it... there\'s no way she can handle that, I shouldn\'t have listened\', Uncle Isniu thought.

Gistella was also stunned as she looks at Adhara\'s sizzling body in absolute surprise, a new sensation that she has never felt slowly creeps into her body before her eyes began to become watery. Sadness is a new concept for a former Undead like herself.

"A-Adhara...", she mumbles silently, unable to believe what she was seeing.

Upon seeing this the Cursed Bee started laughing with a weird trembling tone, it was worried for a second there but now its body feels rejuvenated. With the annoying Werewolf dead, the others would fall easily with their decreased morale.

Even some of the Dark Elves slowly freeze as fear started to spark inside of them.

Similar to Gistella, the sadness made her glance at the Cursed Bee with absent eyes. Hearing the loud mocking laugh from the Cursed Bee, a small spark of fear slowly infiltrates her heart as her emotions are in shambles.

But then out of nowhere, Adhara\'s body trembles slightly.

Although it was very light the onlookers saw that, and to their surprise, her right arm slowly moved. Holding the ground with spread fingers, she slowly pushes her trembling body up under the surprised gazes of the others.

Just like watching the dead comes back to life, the entire place went silent.

Everyone without exception held their breaths as they saw Adhara standing back up to her feet despite the gruesome injuries around her body, the level of damage she sustained is unbelievable and she shouldn\'t be able to stand up with those kinds of injuries.

If it were any other Werewolves, it would\'ve died ten times over.

Yet despite the impossible, she stands back to her feet before looking up at the Cursed Bee.

Upon seeing the annoying Werewolf that is bombarded with every cursed energy that it can gather at that moment which surpasses its own realm, the Cursed Bee\'s smug expression immediately turned into a pale one.

"What are you laughing at? I told you, it\'s going take more than that to kill me..."

Slowly the sizzling cursed energy that burns like fire around the Cursed Bee\'s body swayed, and fear started to bloom inside of its heart realizing that Adhara didn\'t stay down after taking everything that it has.

But due to that, its body slowly freezes as it becomes harder to move by the second.

Just like what it did to the others that bore fear towards it, the Curse of Cowardice is also ruthless to its owner and now the Cursed Bee\'s body stiffens up. It comes to the point of even its huge wings are unable to buzz anymore, the Cursed Bee quickly falls down to the ground.

Crash!!

Adhara slowly made her way toward the Cursed Bee.

Walking limply while holding her left arm, or at least what\'s left of it of course.

Upon reaching the Cursed Bee she quickly stepped on its chest again with a devious smile etched on her face, showing the sight of the grim reaper to the Cursed Bee. "What did you say earlier... Oh yeah, right. You said you\'re my incarnation of death, but it seems you\'re mistaken"

"I\'m the incarnation of your death..."

Swish!

The red crescent moon symbol on her forehead flashes before she grabs the Cursed Bee\'s head.

Gripping it tightly with power, the sound of its skull breaking can be heard. It didn\'t take long for the skull to be crushed before the Cursed Bee\'s head exploded like a watermelon, sending it straight to the actual grim reaper.

After doing that, Adhara slowly turns to face Gistella.

Exposing her triumphant smile, she raises her fist to the sky while showing her neat white rows of teeth. Gistella covers her mouth before she feels an insurmountable amount of relief, it\'s like a wave of cooling sensation in her chest.

Despite doubting for a brief moment there, she feels guilty not trusting Adhara more.

But at the end of the day, she\'s glad that Adhara is okay.

Shifting her eyes to look at the majestic castle that is still standing in the background, Adhara\'s eyes turn tender, "See? I did it, I protected the castle! This is a sign, it must be... If I can manage to protect the castle, then you have to go through the trial safely"

"I know you can do it, there\'s no stopping us if we put our minds to it", she added inwardly.

Out of nowhere Gistella jumped and hugs Adhara from the side, this made Adhara groan as her body is completely in pain. But it still didn\'t fade the smile on her face, "Are you actually worried? That fight is mine from the start, it\'s not even close"

"Stop bragging, you look like you\'re going to collapse any moment now", Gistella replied.

Both of them chuckled as the situation finally calmed down, but then suddenly their senses went alert again when they caught a glimpse of a portal opening beside them from the corner of their eyes.

Even the Dark Elves also were attracted to the black portal that spawned out of nowhere.

Coming out of that black portal are two figures that fall to the ground with a thud. Gistella springs up intending to defend Adhara from the two figures, but then she quickly recognized the two, "Hmm...? Flunra? Evelyn? What happen to you?!"
