Chapter 471: Catfight

Translator: imperfectluck Editor: Kurisu

“Awaken, my Soul Imprint, Marauder.”

Elisa’s command awakened the Flame Sea Marchioness’s hidden power. The next instant, the marked heart of Ladvioka split apart and shattered, transforming into fire crystals that Elisa directly absorbed.

Elisa’s Soul Imprint—Marauder. This was her ladder to the top.

Elisa’s Soul Imprint was rather unique. Typically, this Soul Imprint of two beasts fighting would always be in a deep sleep and do basically nothing for her at the moment. But right now, deep within her soul, a bleeding dragon head was currently fighting with a black beast. These two furiously fighting beasts were trying to kill each other as they fought over this fresh half a heart.

Soul Imprints were each individual’s own personal path that they desired to take in life. Every person’s path would be different, so of course their Soul Imprints would be as varied and numerous as the stars. However, the most common type of Soul Imprint would be regarding one’s understanding and summation of their own job class. Typically, the Soul Imprint would strengthen a certain type of ability. This might seem simple, but it was a concrete improvement. All of my four Soul Imprints were this type of Soul Imprint.

However, I said “typically” because that was only the most common situation. There would always be people out there that took paths which were far from ordinary. While buff-type Soul Imprints were simple and practical, they would be unable to change one’s foundation. Yet, some people’s Soul Imprints were capable of completely changing their fighting method and power type. There were numerous examples of individuals instantly reaching top level through their Soul Imprints.

The Seal of Unlimited Courage allowed the holder to become stronger and stronger as long as he believed that he would never lose. This Soul Imprint helped Karwenz to never fear any powerful enemy, basically making him into the main character of any hot-blooded story. A certain Beast Tamer’s Soul Imprint of All-encompassing Love helped him to obtain countless followers as if he was the main character of a legend. Diana’s “Anti-God Fool” Soul Imprint was something that had never been seen before in history. Her Soul Imprint directly created a new job class and generation, pointing her sword at the Gods as if she was a harem protagonist in a Chinese ReadNovelFull…

Alright then, I confess that I indeed held a grudge. Compared to them, my Soul Imprint had only simple buff effects. This was basically just like a mass-produced version compared to a custom-made version.

And, Elisa’s Soul Imprint was the most unique of them all. It was typically inactive most of the time, with no buffs or benefits at all. However, her Soul Imprint gave her the opportunity to reach a much higher level. It could be said that Elisa’s desire for strength had created such a miracle.

“My very soul confirms that I shall follow my instinctive desires and chase after my dreams.”

Thanks to the Goddess of Chaos, all demons possessed the ability to devour and evolve. However, evolving through devouring had its limits. It would be wondrous enough already if a demon could improve by a power level through devouring, and two power levels would be the very uppermost limit. More would result in self-destruction. Elisa’s Soul Imprint was obviously an offshoot of her demon bloodline, yet it gave her the possibility to reach the top.

The Marauder Soul Imprint had a ridiculous effect. Anything that she desired, as long as it matched her basic nature, could be devoured and used for her evolution. Back in the day, she had devoured the Fire Elemental God and the Demon Earl as one was of the fire element and the other was a demon. And now, this half of Ladvioka’s heart that she received was both of fire element and a demon’s. This matched Elisa’s requirements perfectly. This would be the best gift of all for her.

Demon hearts were some of the best magical catalysts around. Many special mechanisms also used demon hearts as their energy source. In fact, demon hearts were even an excellent currency in the lower planes. That was because demon hearts were the crystallization of a demon’s lifetime of power.

Devouring and evolving would forever be the main concepts of the Chaos Abyss. Elisa, who was favored by the Chaos Abyss, was the very incarnation of such concepts.

The demon heart was instantly dissolved as red flames covered Elisa. The next instant, she transformed into an ethereal fiery figure that started flying. This newly-born Inferno Demon went right for Ilmisya. Any newly born powerful demon would require battling in order to consume and adapt to its new power. Since the two Main Gods, Karwenz and Sidunwar, had started their battle, of course that only left the Queen of Temptations for Elisa to battle.

“You always walk around almost naked! I’ve disliked you so long for this!”

Alright then, Elisa’s angry howl didn’t even try to conceal her personal grudge. It would seem that there were more reasons why she chose the Queen of Temptations as her opponent.

“Heehee, an excellent figure should be shown. You must be angry because your man always sneaks looks at me.”

While giggling, Ilmisya even proudly made a seductive expression. But right after that, she was unable to laugh any more. The ethereal fiery figure tossed out a flame spear that covered the entire sky, forcefully grounding Ilmisya right after she started flying.

“Cough, cough, using your power in such a roughshod manner is such a waste…”

Although Ilmisya was covered in dust, she was still uninjured. Even if she was the weakest of the Devil Lords, she was still an immemorial powerful individual who had experienced countless generations. Elisa’s flames had been dispersed over too large an area and didn’t even damage Ilmisya’s defenses.

Ilmisya was unable to continue her complaints as she shut up due to several dozen flame spears aimed directly at her. Elisa was wasting her energy as if she was the spoiled daughter of a ridiculously wealthy family. Yet, there was something faintly hidden within the flame spears that caused Ilmisya to instinctively feel threatened.

“…Hiding the fatal attack within a seemingly harmless large-scale AOE magic spell? Such a simple tactic…”

Alright then, Ilmisya finally shut up completely even though she typically had the habit of talking to herself meaninglessly in order to distract her enemies. The green mist that spread out from within the flame spears was something that even she didn’t dare to touch.

“…Ladvioka’s chaos essence? You really are going all out.”

Chaos essence was the gift of the Chaos Abyss—this essence was the very core of Chaos. Chaos essence would be the accumulation of a demon’s entire life, as well as something absolutely required for a demon to improve in power. But since Elisa was sacrificing part of Ladvioka’s chaos essence as a one-time consumable to attack, she was basically directly exploding Ladvioka’s core essence. This seemingly harmless green mist would actually be fatal to the touch. Even Ilmisya wouldn’t dare to come into contact with it.

Elisa didn’t reply as she instinctively spread out this faint green mist. Now, not only was Ilmisya avoiding the green mist, even the two Main Gods started reflexively avoiding the green mist.

The flames and the poison mist changed this snow-white battlefield into a dangerous domain. Elisa unhesitatingly went all out, causing the Queen of Temptations who wasn’t highly skilled at direct battles to feel some hardship. Ilmisya tried her best to dodge everything, attempting to use a battle of attrition to waste Elisa’s energy.

What Ilmisya didn’t know was that this seemingly important chaos essence was actually useless to Elisa. However, Ladvioka’s heart and chaos essence was actually split up into two major portions: one part focused on his power of putrefaction, and the other part focused on his foundational nature of being an Inferno Demon. While his Inferno Demon chaos essence portion was the best nutrition for Elisa, the putrefaction portion was impossible for Elisa to digest, so she might as well simply use it as a one-time consumable attack item.

Currently, flames were erupting all over Elisa’s body as she casually tossed out endless flame seas and flame spears at a forbidden spell level. Yet this wasn’t exactly a good thing, as this was because she was unable to control her constantly growing power which needed to be vented through battling.

Of course, what she needed to do right now more than anything was to find a place to properly digest and organize her new power. Unfortunately, that would evidently be impossible currently.

And so, Elisa simply adapted. She directly decided to toss out the impurities and uncontrollable new power as consumables. This basically gave her temporary limitless firepower as if she was using Soul Immolation. Plus, Ilmisya was the cautious type who preferred to avoid direct fights, so Elisa actually gained the upper hand for the time being. /

However, their ladies’ fight seemed far gentler in comparison to the two male Main Gods’ fight next to them which was so direct and cruel.
