<h4>Chapter 234: Pathetic</h4>
Mika was being appraised by at least half a dozen of different medics.
Her status point increase waspletely out of this world, and the higher-ups of the Sloth soldiers were hoping to copy her sess to enhance the offensive power of their underlings...
...without realizing that no such thing was necessary any longer...
Of course, the avable medics got to work as soon as they could with the eagerness that would make even the worst workaholic shook their head in disbelief.
"It''s truly amazing! Most of your status points are over ten thousand points, your physical defense, and attack in particr! There are no records of status points above twenty thousand for a non-avatar yer character! This is truly spectacr!"
A bespectacled man was singing praise while carefully taking notes as his eyes shone brightly.
"We need to take you to theb in the capital, as soon as possible! How is your body still holding up together even after receiving thousands upon thousands of bonus points?! If we''ll figure that out we might just...!"
"..."
None of the male medic''s words were making any effect on Mika.
The ashen-haired girl was ring at the group a few hundred feet directly in front of her.
Mary Hope and her two tamed beasts were apparently having a talk with the very woman that the Wraths have set out to find in the first ce.
Now the honor of the Wrath family could be restored!
But Mika wasn''t happy in the slightest...
How could she be when the red-haired girl and her corpse puppet have stolen all the glory that belonged to her?
She was the Justice''s Wrath!
Of course, she should be the one to save everyone andplete the quest!
Not some girl from the dishonored noble family and her stinking corpse puppet!
"Tsk...! Show off...!"
Once Mika saw that the corpse puppet is activating and deactivating its skills time and time again, she clicked her tongue and used her own skills.
"Ooooohhhh! Amazing! Those numbers are so over the top! That must be the first time in recorded history!"
The medics gasped and began talking over each other excitedly.
"Hmph...! That''s right! If I was given a chance I would have done a better job dealing with the monster wave than some..."
*BOOOOOOOOOM*
Before Mika could register what was happening, the blue undead appeared right in front of her, and the shockwave caused by him abruptly stopping created an enormous explosion that sent all the medics flying tens of feet into the air.
Mika was the only one who didn''t move nor made a sound...
"!!!!?!??!?!?!?!?!!"
...because the blue undead grabbed her face, blocking her mouth, and held her in ce.
Mika tried to back off, but the grip was too strong, she wasn''t even able to budge without feeling like her jaw was about to be ripped off!
"!!!!!?!?!?!!!?"
She tried to do the next best thing - grab onto the hand that was holding onto her and rip it apart with her overwhelming force!
She had her skills active!
The medics - who were all crashing against the ground by that point - have just told her that she was the strongest in history!
What a measly corpse puppet can do against her?!
So she grabbed onto the wrist of the left hand that the undead was holding her, and tore it apart!
"!!!!!!!!!!!"
...except that she didn''t.
"Pathetic weakling like you dared to hurt my cute daughter...?"
The undead stared down at the ashen-haired girl and scoffed with disgust.
Mika couldn''t answer, but if the undead wanted to listen to her exnation he wouldn''t have blocked her mouth in the first ce.
"!!!!!!!!"
"Pffft....!"
The undead has lifted the ashen-haired girl up to match his eye-level and snorted...!
"Khahahahaha!"
..no, he straight upughed!
But since Mika was already in the air, she could attack him!
Even if his hand was armored or something, it didn''t mean that his body was too! He was just a corpse puppet after all!
Since her arms were too short - her punches wouldn''t reach - so instead she went for a kick!
*BOOOOOOOM*
Mary''s full power kick caused a massive explosion that shattered the earth and caused injuries in all the people that tried to get over to help her...
"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
And she wheezed in pain once her shin met with the immovable object and the bone shattered into hundreds of shrapnel that tore through the muscles and skin.
"So underwhelming... was that supposed to be a kick...?"
Zombie tilted his head and sighed with disgust.
Then his head moved and he focused his attention on the girl''s left hand...
Especially her fingers...
"What do you think hurts more? Being poisoned, or being caught on fire?"
He asked and raised his index finger - he moved it around and a drop of translucent liquid floated up.
Then, without the undead doing anything else, a tiny ball of flickering fire joined the liquid and they both danced in the air.
Despite their meager size, the threatening aura they were giving off was enough to make Mika''s skin crawl...
"Honestly... I can''t decide. But do you want to know the fun part?"
The blue undead''s smile grew wider as he asked.
"I don''t have to choose."
He said and both the liquid and the ball of fire merged together and became a violet me burning brightly.
Now, it didn''t excude the dangerous aura anymore...
The aura it was giving off was the overwhelming aura of death!
"And neither do you."
Heughed and flicked his finger, sending the speck of violet me at Mika''s and.
"!!!!!!!!!!"
Mika flinched and started wildly iling her limbs to get away from the attack, but she wasn''t strong enough to free herself from the undead''s grip not fast enough to dodge the attack.
As if it had a mind of its own, the violet me followed Mika''s left arm no matter what she did and barely grazed her ring finger before going out and disappearing without a trace...
*thump*
Satisfied Zombie let go of Mika''s face, making the ashen-haired girl crumble to the ground and turned around and casually walked back towards his master, Mary, Arion, and Blueberry.
"..."
Mika was curled up on the ground - face down - clenching her left hand close to her body.
Her shoulders were shaking.
"Mika?! Are you alrig...?!"
Corvus ran up to her and touched her shoulder...
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRGGGHHHH!"
And as soon as he did that the girl writhed in pain and began shouting her lungs off and wriggling on the ground like a warm.
From the ce where the violet mes brushed - the tip of her ring finger - a thick ck web extended, climbing up all the way to her shoulder.
"MIKA! SHE NEEDS HELP!"
The white-haired man called out and the help arrived without dy, even though they themselves were in a rather bad shape.
"...! nothing''s working...!"
One of the medics cried once their healing skill had no effect.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRGGGHHHH! MAKE IT STOOOOOOOOOOP!"
Mika cried hysterically, thrashing around unable to control herself.
"Hey, weakling! It will stop hurting if you tear off your finger!"
Zombie nced over his shoulder and smirked.
"!!!"
Mika''s body flinched, and she grabbed her left hand''s ring finger without hesitation.
"MIKA, DON''T!"
*RIIIIIIIP*
"AAA...! AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRGGGHHHH...!"
Corvus tried to stop her, but the ashen-haired girl twisted her finger, tearing it off of her hand and throwing it away with full force, but that only resulted in even more agonizing pain flooding every inch of her body as the ck web began expanding twice as fast, as her detached finger crumbled and turned into nothingness while still in the air.
"Pfffft...! KHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! YOU DID IT?! YOU REALLY DID IT?! KHAHAHAHAHAHA! Haa... how could anyone be this naive?"
Zombie burst intoughter and shook his head in disbelief, before casually walking off.
