Taming The Villainesses novel Chapter 254

(EP-254.1) Caged #9

254 – Caged Bird #9

Rattle, clank.

The attachments and metal parts on Opal’s body fell off one by one, scattering across the floor. It seemed Narmi’s forbidden spell, corpse explosion, had significantly impacted him.

“To blow away the protective magic coating... Quite impressive.”

Cough.

Blood gushed out from between the mask of Opal, who appeared to be unharmed. Opal’s breathing from beyond the respirator was as grating as a nail on glass.

“Descendant of the Dragon King, you too have dabbled in forbidden magic. But I understand. You were afraid. You wanted to be prepared for anything.”

Crack, clatter.

The metal pieces that had been encasing the fairy swordsman fell away one by one.

Opal looked down at himself and began pulling off the mechanical devices attached to his body.

Soon, his gaunt and pale body was revealed, ➤ NоvеⅠight ➤ (Read more on our source) covered with dense, incomprehensible inscriptions.

“Has the respirator broken? I can’t replace the filter for a while. This isn’t easy. It’s a chilling situation. It’s been a long time since I’ve been so cornered.”

Huhuhu-. Opal laughed ominously.

His sister, Stella, shouted.

“He’s running out of filters! We just need to keep pushing him!”

Just as she said, it had been well over ten minutes since the battle had begun. The filter attached to Opal’s mask was gradually reaching its limit.

“─But it’s not enough. Neither your skills nor your resolve are satisfactory. You are not yet worthy to stand on the same stage as me.”

Despite the apparent limit approaching, Opal’s demeanor showed no signs of weakening. Instead, his presence grew even more intense, like a fire fueled by oil.

“Fake. Fake. Everything is fake. Fools who don’t realize they’re living in castles made of sand.”

Like many warriors and heroes, it wasn’t surprising that he possessed the ability to bolster his will even in moments of crisis.

Whatever it was, the situation didn’t look favorable for us. I couldn’t just stand by, so I quickly prepared the next spell.

Something big and powerful.

A prolonged battle was absolutely out of the question. It would be better to think of finishing it with one blow.

I had one spell in mind for such a situation.

Seuk-.

At that moment, Opal reached his hand into the air.

“This is it. The time of cowering within the egg is over. I will break free from the shell of the world and soar once more, and awaken the mass.”

The movement was like someone drawing a sword from their waist. Stella was the first to react to this sight.

“Everyone, get down-!”

At her words, both Narmi and I stopped what we were doing and ducked our heads.
