Gorgeous Jewel
Chapter III Chapter 105

Echidna was pushed back by Alice's blow. Thanks to the magic shield and the hardness of her body layer, Alice's attack seemed to have little effect on her. Not to mention with his incredible regenerative ability that was the same as the ancient monster Hydra, any wound would heal in an instant. Thanks to that ability, he survived past wars against ancient heroes thousands of years ago and from the ambush of the heroes who attacked him hundreds of years later.

Echidna improved his standing position. It stood upright, slowly drifting upwards and floating in the air.

"good. Don't expect you to get out of here alive." He said firmly with a cold tone.

"I have no plans to leave before I teach you a lesson." Alice pulled out her sword.

Echidna walked with arrogance in the air as if she were climbing something under her feet.

"Haha...." His laughter was full of confidence and arrogance. "be prepared to meet your creator, lowly pest."

Echidna extended one of her hands forward, she pointed her palm at Alice. As he twisted it and moved it upwards, three pointy rocks emerged from the ground moving towards Alice.

Alice jumps but as she is in midair, her body is pulled by a strong gravitational field towards Echidna. Alice could not resist that attraction. As she slid towards Echidna, Alice saw that Echidna's other smoldering hands were ready to hit her.

Suddenly Alice's body stopped suddenly making her jerk. The pain was like hitting something hard to make it difficult to scream. However Alice must move her hand to withstand the blow of the Echidna destroyer. Alice protected her body with her Qi and sword, she was thrown far away and hit the large pillar supporting the room.

Echidna moved her palm. He made stone pillars that hit Alice from all directions.

"Fight as hard as you can. You pest."

Unfinished, Echidna conjures fireballs from the sky which then rain down on Alice.

No one knew how Alice was squashed by the stone columns and the huge fireballs thrown at her. But Echidna did not show leniency. He flicked his finger, made a huge fire spear in his hand then threw it with all his might at Alice.

The spear hit the pile of rocks where Alice was trapped. The sound of the explosion was so great that it made the other two turn their heads. Fee was worried before he finally saw Alice in the rock.

"She's..is fine, but if this continues.."

"Where did you see the wolf boy! Haaatt!" The swing of Marzar's sword from the side diverted him.

Fee is a little heavy-hearted to help, however, Alice has advised him to let her and her daughter solve their problems.

"Humph! Pathetic." Echidna

After using a large amount of magic, Echidna did not look tired in the least. His gaze looked down on Alice.

When she thought Alice had lost and everything was done. A wave of Qi slashes down his cheek. His eyes widened, he became angry.

Just for a moment he lowered his guard and the female deemon had already injured him.

The burning pile of rocks was smashed into pieces.

Echidna clenched her teeth and looked at the figure that had emerged from behind the cloud of dust.

Full of blood and scratches on each side of his body. Alice slowly stood up. Not only had his vitality reached its limit. Echidna jiga's attack forced him to put on a large amount of Qi until he almost ran out of energy.

"I saved a second of my energy before." His mind as he gasps.

Echidna clenched her hand, a large hand from the ground appeared before Alice and wanted to squeeze her. Alice swung her sword splitting the stone hand. Then he ran towards Echidna.

Echidna attacked again with wind magic. Alice brushed off the attack with a swing of her sword.

Then the fireballs came crashing but Alice quickly made several swords of Qi energy around her to block the fireballs.

Alice jumped high into the air. Echidna fired a burst of fire from the magic circle she made.

Again the fire element. One of the elements with the highest affinity of the dragon race.

Alice focused the cold Qi on her sword. He rolled in the air then pushed his body down and darted through the burst of flames.

His sword continued to descend splitting those bursts of fire. Although strong but the weakness of Echidna is close combat. He had no technique in close combat, his movements were so simple and easy to read. Alice took advantage of her shortcomings by forcing her closer.

"Yeah!" Alice shouted with all her might. No matter if the fire burned his body, no matter how painful the wound was. He hoped his sword would reach Echidna.

The two then collide with each other. Echidna held down Alice's sword blade with her magic shield. Her face clearly said annoyed with Alice's persistence.

"Woman! Don't be arrogant!"

Echidna stomped her feet making Alice crash into the sky with her wind magic.

"Aghhh!" The incision from the little dagger that was in the wind wave again left him injured. Alice clenched her teeth to endure the pain.

Alice mengarahkan ujung pedangnya ke bawah. "Echidna! Buka Matamu!" Teriaknya sambil melesat ke bawah.

Echidna gathered up Mana quickly, she did something no one had ever done. The fire, wind, and earth of the three elements were fused perfectly in the magic circle carvings he made.

A hurricane filled with hot and sharp dust shot right in front of Alice.

With the rest of the spiritual energy in her body, Alice forced herself. He focused all his energy on his sword.

"Yeahahoo!!!" Alice shouted pushing her sword to cleave the typhoon.

Fee's eyes widened, he was aware of what was happening. As her Clairvoyance actively sees Alice's future. The calm expression on his face turned to riled up.

"No! Alice! Stop that!" Shouted Fee at Alice through telepathy.

Alice heard Fee's voice warning her inside her head, even Nyx was worried about her but her determination was already unanimous. Alice doesn't want to stop, she can't stop now. The girl didn't want it.

"Feed... Thank ye. Nyx...I'm sorry I couldn't keep my promise." Alice smiled as if to return the two friends.

Time seems to slow down between the two. Alice no longer paid attention to Fee and Nyx's warnings.

"Although our time is short. Echidna, thank you for choosing me as your mother. Really, I'm happy to be a mother even if we're not covered by blood." Inner Alice

Unlike the Echidna, something stifling suddenly just made it difficult to breathe. When he saw Alice's scarred face well, he did not know, without realizing it, tears welled up his cheeks.

"Why!? What is this feeling!? What exactly happened to me...?" His mind began to fidget.

"Woman! Who exactly are you!?Answer me!" Echidna cried out but Alice replied with a soft laugh and a warm smile.

Tears just keep flowing. The more Alice took pains to destroy her attack, the more Alice was injured, the closer Alice approached and the more she saw that smiling face, the more her chest became aching.

But Echidna still doesn't care. He shouted loudly trying to strengthen his resolve to kill the enemy before him.

A while later the hot dust storm magic began to crack. Alice managed to split it.

When her magic was destroyed, Echidna thought the sword was going to cut her throat, and she reflexively closed her eyes.

"......"

"......"

"......"

Echidna waited and kept waiting for when the sharp blade of Alice's sword would reach her neck. But the moment he opened his eyes, Alice's sword stopped on his shoulders.

Echidna took a good look at the face of the female figure who was standing weakly before her eyes.

From one corner of his mouth was flowing fresh blood in red. The white face is radiant like a pure milk with smooth skin that feels soft to the touch and bright golden hair shiny.

Echidna's hands and feet were shaking. He suddenly lost his strength as the woman's body fell and leaned on him.

"A-I.remember. Mama.I remember everything." His eyes began to pry at the human girl.

Alice dropped her sword on the ground and then it cracked leaving only the hilt, as well as her already helpless body.

His gaze began to twitch but he could still feel the softness from the back of his head.

Alice knew she was in Echidna's lap. Yes, Echidna is his daughter, not Echidna as the Dragon King and ruler of the monsters.

Shortly after Echidna got her memory of Alice, she broke into tears. Echidna let go of the change in form, immediately leaning Alice's head on her lap with great care.

"Mr...! Mama...! Forgive Echidna. hiks, hiks, mama..." Echidna clasped Alice's hand and continued to call out to her.

Alice smiled faintly. He really has no energy anymore.

"It seems.this is the end. Father, mother, Iris, lilia, Xiao Mei. Sorry, I can't go home and see you guys." Inner Alice resigned.

"Child.ceng." Alice knocked on Echidna's head. He then chuckled slowly. "Thank God,.you..back."

"Yes, mama.ini Echidna." Echidna wiped away her tears, she forced herself to smile as well. "Mama... Echidna apologizes."

Alice's hand slowly stroked the soft cheek of Echidna. Many things he wanted to say to his daughter but even making a sound was already quite difficult for him.

"My daughter. Really, thank..love.."

Alice's body grew colder, her face and lips pale, and even her eyes were not emitting the light of life. Echidna panicked and grew anxious.

As the hand that gently stroked her cheek fell, Echidna caught it immediately. He felt his mother's hands cold.

Echidna's whole body shook. "Young....Mamma....Hiks..mama...!" Echidna screamed and cried as she shook Alice's stiff body.

"Mrs....!" He held her tight.

The mood became gloomy. Fee and Marzar lose their fighting intent.

"What's going on? Why is His Majesty crying?" Marzar wondered.

Fee closed his eyes with his hands. He looked up with sadness and tears.

"Stupid man." Fee said in a soft voice.
