“My lord,” Melina hurriedly went over to check Nexa’s condition.Nexa was coughing crazily. She also looked like she was going through a brain fog because Jim’s vivre had messed up with her mind. His hand imprints were clearly visible on her throat.But Melina was glad that nothing happened to Nexa. She stood in between Jim and Nexa now, taking another knife out of her hidden pocket.“You want to die for that woman?” Jim asked her. His face had bruises and was bleeding from his forehead, but he didn’t care about that at this moment. “Then so be it!” he didn’t have the time to waste. He wanted to kill Nexa before she could stand on her feet. He leaped at her.“What a coward!” Melina yelled. “You are attacking us when she’s down, and you call yourself a hero?”“You think you and your lord deserve such respect in battle after killing so many men, women, and children? And even poisoning people through sweets?” Jim punched at her.Melina responded with her own explosive knife thrust.Jim’

“Huh? What sort of fucking joke is that?” Love Bullet thought Smiling Son was joking. “Who can sleep in this situation? Are you fucking with me so that you can take his body and run away? Your cheap tricks won’t work on me, you fat fuck.” She quickly walked toward Ronny. “We’ll split 50-50.” She pointed the gun at Ronny’s head and pulled the trigger.Ronny’s hair suddenly grew like a fish net and caught not just the bullet but also chomped Love Bullet’s hand off and took her gun in the process.Love Bullet froze for a second, and then she screamed in horror as blood poured out of her severed hand.The hair grew even more and tried to swallow her whole this time, but Smiling Son quickly grabbed her by the collar and threw her away, and he himself stepped back fast. Even though he was overweight, he was nimble on his feet.The hair on Ronny’s face went back to normal.“What the hell is that?” Smiling Son frowned. “I’ve never seen anything like it. Is it some kind of a demon we’ve never

Nexa grinned evilly as she saw realization dawn on Jim’s face. “I guess you are beginning to understand your place, so why not make things more humbling for you?” she said and then flew straight toward Ronny and Doug.“No!” Jim chased her, but she was too fast.“Succubus Strike!” Her tail whipped at them in a way it was going to pierce through both of their hearts one after another like a sharp vine would.Ronny and Doug couldn’t even see her. However, Ronny’s hand moved on its own, and he managed to grab the tail of the succubus.Suddenly silence fell in the neighborhood.Nexa blinked twice. “Huh?” She couldn’t believe that Ronny caught her tail so effortlessly. (who the hell is this guy? Wait, that’s right! He’s been given twice the bounty as Hero Jim. No wonder he’s so capable. BUT… he’s not a hero like Jim.) She shrunk her tail in size so that it slipped out Ronny’s hand and came back to her.“H-How did you catch her tail that I couldn’t even see?” Doug asked Ronny. “You really ar

Jim incessantly rained punches down on Nexa, so much so the sound of his arms moving through the air could be heard by Ronny and Doug who were at least hundred feet away.Moreover, the explosive gusts of air made it impossible for Doug to stand firmly on the ground. He kept getting pushed back unlike Ronny, so he held Ronny’s shirt, making it difficult for him to breathe.“Let go of me, you bastard!” Ronny growled in a half-suppressed voice. “I can’t properly breathe.”“Sorry, Boss. I have nothing to say. Please bear with me,” Doug cried out shamelessly.Meanwhile, the battle between Jim and Nexa got more intense, as Nexa separated the feathers in her wings and controlled them individually and sent them flying at him. They collided with him and exploded tremendously, making even the ground to cave in.Each of those explosions were far worse than anything Jim had ever seen. If not for the vivre sphere shielding him, he’d have blown to bits long ago. Nobody would have ever found out all

Nexa and Jim’s exchanges were very destructive, but like a madman, Devilian jumped in between them. Both Jim and Nexa, whose adrenaline was rushing to the max, lashed out at him and sent him flying back with their attacks. He crashed into the castle wall, and seemingly passed out. “Tail Thorn Shower!” Nexa’s tail showered flaming thorn bullets at Jim. They rained on him in exceeding numbers, making it difficult to impossible for him to block all of them. Some of them pierced through his flesh and bone, giving him immeasurable physical and mental agony. Still, Jim firmly planted his feet on the ground and withstood the pain and prepared his next attack. Nexa didn’t let him do what he wanted, and so she came at him with another attack. “Sleeping Blossom!” A swing of her feather-sword released a violent violet gas that washed all over Jim. It was so potent even a highly narcotic drug would pale before its effects. It was so fast-moving, Jim ended up inhaling some of it before he stop
