Chương 109: First Kiss

Shutark launched the first attack.

He raised his battle axe high and brought it down on the demon woman's head.

"Hehe, young people are just so impatient."

A gust of wind and snow swept in, and the demon woman's figure disappeared into the snow, only to reappear instantly at a greater distance from the group.

The other person picked up a strand of hair, twirled it between their fingers, and said regretfully, "What a pity, I don't like being in a hurry, I like to take it slow."

"Let's start with self-introduction. My name is Yuki-onna (Snow Woman), and it's nice to meet you all."

As she spoke, the strand of hair in her hand instantly transformed into a long whip, which she unexpectedly lashed out at Shutark.

boom- Shutark took a step back, holding his battle axe in front of him to block the attack.

The hair struck the battle axe, producing a metallic sound.

The Philen Staff beside Shane lit up, and the instant Shutark completed his block, a [Normal Attack Magic] shot out, precisely striking the [Snow Woman]'s heart.

With a whoosh, the Snow Woman's hair instantly retracted, like an eggshell, half-covering her front.

Philon's magical attack struck it and was immediately deflected.

Looking at the flexible and versatile hair that combined offense and defense, Shane suddenly thought of someone—[Level 1 Mage] Zanze.

That was also a mage who liked to use her hair as a weapon.

This is troublesome; they don't possess the insane magic that can cut through anything.

We can't engage in a direct confrontation; we need to find a way to resolve this quickly.

"Philen, take good care of Frillie."

With that, he put the sleeping Frilian down from his back, handed her to Philon, drew his longsword from his waist, and went to Shutark's side.

"Shutark, find a way to grab her hair."

"what?"

Shutark was momentarily stunned by Shane's command.

The demon woman opposite him chuckled.

"Pulling a girl's hair is not gentlemanly."

Before she finished speaking, her light blue hair instantly transformed into a long whip, which lashed out at the two of them once more.

Shane reacted quickly.

He activated [Swiftness], constantly weaving through the hair to evade the opponent's piercing attacks, while simultaneously trying to find an opening to get closer.

Shutark also started running, circling around the other person, dodging while thinking about how to carry out Shane's orders.

He understood Xia En's intention; he needed to grab the other's hair to create an opportunity for Xia En to get close.

Thud— Another strand of hair struck the battle axe.

This time, Shutark didn't dodge. He took the full force of the whip's blow. At the same time, the battle axe in his hand instantly turned into a wrench, grabbing his hair and starting to wrap and curl it.

The demon woman didn't look back and showed no surprise whatsoever.

Instead, they turned the tables and pulled Shutark closer, causing the surrounding hair to surge up and curl the boy into a cocoon.

"Um" Shutark was taken aback; before he could react, he was engulfed in a sea of hair.

His hair was incredibly resilient; no matter how much he twisted and struggled, it was all in vain.

"Oh dear, caught one."

At the same time, the Snow Woman's attacks on Xia En were not hindered at all. Her long hair and whip came down one after another, and the attacks were even more fierce than before.

Xia En frowned.

Do demon women have that much hair?!

They didn't even manage to get a chance to open up an opening?!

Just as he was thinking this, bang bang bang, another bunch of hair came at him at the same time. He dodged left and right, but instead of getting closer to his opponent, he was forced to stay even further away.

This is bad; if things continue like this, we'll be at a disadvantage.

Swah— Philon's attack magic grazed Shane's body and shot out at just the right moment, successfully blocking the attack from behind him.

Xia En glanced over at it.

Speechless.

Despite such a commotion, the old man still hasn't woken up.

Just then, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of an extremely faint, watery blue color hidden beneath the ice and snow.

"Philon, watch out!"

Unfortunately, it was too late.

Just as Philon's attack spell ended, a strand of hair suddenly shot out, instantly wrapping around the little girl's ankle, pulling her to the ground and dragging her forward.

Xia En activated the skill [Dual Blade Style: Shadow Kill], instantly rushed forward, and severed his hair with a single sword strike.

Philon fell into Shane's arms, letting out a painful groan.

Xia En looked down and saw a bright red mark appear on the little girl's ankle, with a layer of fine blood beads on it.

"I'm alright, Mr. Shane—" Philon struggled to stand up.

Xia En immediately pressed down on her shoulder.

"Stay here and don't move."

The Goddess's Barrier instantly opened, and Shane firmly protected Philon and the sleeping Frilian.

The entry "One Against Three" is activated.

Without a second thought, he directly "colluded" with Shutark three times in a row.

Instantly, a tremendous power surged within his body, nearly bursting him apart; Xia En felt as if his health bar had increased.

"Ara————" The Snow Woman opposite Xia En stared at him with a fascination in her eyes as she suddenly unleashed her aura. With a flick of her tongue, she hooked a strand of hair from his cheek and snatched it into her mouth.

"What a handsome guy, I just want to kiss him."

I advise you to hold back.

"Oh my, is this your first kiss? Then I have to take it!"

As he spoke, all his hair transformed into long whips, which he eagerly attacked Xia En.

With a burst of speed, Xia En activated both [Swiftness] and [Shadow Strike], instantly transforming into a streak of light and disappearing from the spot.

The Snow Woman, who had just been smug, was taken aback.

Her hair instantly retracted.

Thud— The longsword struck the defensive shield formed by the hair, without injuring the opponent, but it still sent the opponent flying.

Tsk.

Xia En's expression was serious.

"That's why I don't like hairy animals."

The Snow Woman coughed up blood, barely managing to steady herself. Her relaxed expression from before was gone, and a hint of fear was now visible on her face.

She could clearly sense that the man in front of her was angry.

But what is he angry about? — I didn't even manage to hit him once!

"You can't even handle this?"

Before he finished speaking, Shane vanished and charged at the Snow Woman again. The Snow Woman was shocked. All her hair retracted, even the hair that had been covering Shutark, and she covered herself completely with layers of hair.

Thud— The Snow Woman, who had shrunk into a ball of light blue hair, was knocked away.

Xia En heard the sound of vomiting blood again.

Hair shield hard to pierce? No problem, a powerful brick will fly.

Before the [Fur Ball] could land, Xia En sped forward, relentlessly pursuing it.

bang—— The Snow Woman with the fluffy ball was knocked away again.

Thud— The Snow Woman with the fluffy ball was sent flying higher and farther.

Shutark emerged from the Snow Woman's hair, lay on the ground, and kept spitting out a lot of hair.

When I looked up again.

Then you see Shane chasing after a giant light blue "fur ball," kicking it around?

Am I hallucinating?
