The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 660: Battling the Cursed Bee (1)

”How can we beat it? I need to know”, Adhara said with determination.

Back before all of this happened she remembered Flunra warning the others to avoid cursed creatures that are above the fifth epiphany rank, he doesnʼt explain too much so she still doesnʼt know how they are going to take care of the stronger cursed creatures.

Most of the strong cursed creatures are killed by the Dark Elvesʼ arrows, but thereʼs still one left.

Although she doesnʼt want the help of the Dark Elves, she knew that she canʼt be stingy right now and needs to join forces to fight a common enemy, the Cursed Bee that seems to be way stronger than the other cursed creatures that came out of the forest.

Upon hearing this, Uncle Isniu then replied, ”In order to beat it, we must know its curse first”

”Not knowing the curse that empowers a cursed creature this strong would only lead to death, there are many bizarre curses out there and one wrong move would ultimately lead to disaster. Itʼs easy for us Dark Elves to fight cursed creatures that are empowered by handmade curses, but this Cursed Bee seems to have a natural curse empowering it”

With that being said, Uncle Isniu signaled something to the other Dark Elves.

”I need to stamp it with three revelation spells in order to know the curse behind it, help me create some opportunity to touch the Cursed Bee”, Uncle Isniu added before his hands slowly burns with his respective energy.

Adhara nodded her head before she stabbed her leg with her claws.

Splash!

From the side, Gistella was confused but her confusion is immediately appeased, ”I need this to snap my nerves back, create layers of barriers around me Gistella. Iʼm going to help the Dark Elves take that Cursed Bee down”

”Okay, Iʼll help from the backline”, Gistella replied before she conjures four light blue barriers.

Similar to what Gistella and Adhara are doing, the Dark Elves created a barrier of their own around their body while they face the Cursed Bee that is already making its move. The buzzing sound started to get closer as the Cursed Bee glared at the opposing sides with murderous intent.

Realizing many of the cursed creatures were killed, the Cursed Bee is definitely pissed.

Screech!!

A powerful high-pitched soundwave expanded throughout the surrounding from the Cursed Beeʼs screech, the impact is hard-hitting and also it made their hearts thump faster and the feeling of impending doom is rising within them.

Even with the barrier, the soundwave penetrates through as it doesnʼt physically touch them.

Many of the mutated black panthers becomes agitated as the Dark Elvesʼ formation started to turn disarray, they tries to regain control back of the mutated black panthers but some of them failed as they were forced to jump down when the mutated black panthers tucks their tails and run away.

Just as this was happening, the Cursed Beeʼs stinger stab the ground.

Uncle Isniu sensed a pulse of cursed energy crawling on the ground before he instantly shouted to warn the others, ”Charge now! The Cursed Bee is channeling something inside the ground, the cursed energy is increasing!”

Immediately after that, the Dark Elves charge forward alongside Adhara.

With one leap she managed to reach the front of the charging Dark Elves before she quickly quickens her pace and dashed faster towards the Cursed Bee, it seems the Cursed Bee needs to stay put while it was channeling something inside the ground.

Adhara wanted to reach it first, but sheʼs not that fast, the channeling seems to be completed.

”Hmm...?”

Looking down at the ground she can feel the gathering of cursed energy inside of it, she doesnʼt sense just one by there are many points that gathered the cursed creature greedily. But then she tilt her body to the side as a cursed spike missed her body by an inch.

Swoosh!

Following the first cursed spike, more stabs out of the ground intending to impale anything.

Many would find this attack pretty destructive as the cursed spikes that come out of the ground are not only ten or twenty, but it reaches the hundreds, turning the entire open field like a danger zone that will kill anyone that dares to venture through it.

But exactly at this kind of moment, her bloodline as a Werewolf shines the brightest.

Unlike the Dark Elves that are having trouble dodging the relentless cursed spikes that explode from the ground, Adhara with her keen senses is able to dodge each of them by a hairʼs length while she kept dashing forward.

From the side, she looks like she was dancing as she dodges each curse spike cleanly.

Adhara tilts her body before she slides on the ground and even jumped with her hands tucked closed to her body in a spiral to dodge the cursed spikes, it was akin to her giving a performance that nobody wanted to miss.

It was then her eyes flickered when she saw one of the cursed spikes looks different.

One cursed spike that she just dodged is coated with more cursed energy, Adhara can sense it clearly and became worried about this one particular cursed spike. True enough, her wariness pays off when the cursed spike exploded and shoots small cursed spikes into the surroundings.

Since she was already on-guard, Adhara manages to parry the ones heading toward her.

With her momentum, she finally reaches the Cursed Bee, ”Come get me!”

Standing in front of the huge Cursed Bee that is bigger than even her Werewolf form, Adhara raised her open hand fearlessly, palm out, and curled her four fingers inward, taunting the Cursed Bee to come after her.

Knowing the objective, she decided to make the Cursed Bee angry.

Learning from her mistakes earlier with the Elemental Curse, she knows that attacking the Cursed Bee recklessly without knowing the curse that empowers it would just be a foolish move. On top of that, she was told to only occupy the Cursed Bee while Uncle Isniu will do his thing.

Since the Cursed Bee displayed some anger due to the dead cursed creatures, Adhara got an idea.

Nothing would top off occupying the Cursed Bee by making it angry, the emotion of anger would make anyone sluggish if not properly maintained. ʼIf itʼs only a mutated animal that got cursed, this should be a great planʼ, Adhara thought with a nod to herself.

Immediately after that, the Cursed Bee heads toward Adhara with murderous intent.

Using its drill-like four-pointy arms that can definitely pierce through the hardest mineral in this current age, the Cursed Bee started attacking Adhara with all its might. Each strike is instilled with the intent to kill, but all of them missed and hits the ground.

Holes started appearing from the ground due to the Cursed Bee missing its attacks.

ʼIts cursed beam is faster than I can even react, but its movement is not as fast as the cursed beam even with the Curse Zone. If thatʼs the case, Iʼll just need to keep this distance between usʼ, Adhara thought, she realized that being close to the Cursed Bee is the right choice.

While she was occupying the Cursed Bee, Uncle Isniu appeared with his unique footwork.

Although Adhara can clearly see him moving to the Cursed Beeʼs back and even manage to touch the Cursed Bee with his palm, she feels odd at the same time. Even though his movement looks slow, in reality, it was very fast.

In a blink of an eye, Uncle Isniu is able to touch the Cursed Bee two times and stamped it.

The places of the Cursed Bee that Uncle Isniu touched were stamped with a symbol of a black flower, they were sizzling with dark nature energy, and also produced a black line that connected the two black flower symbols.

ʼOne more and we can find a way to defeat itʼ, Adhara thought inwardly.

But then suddenly the Cursed Bee changed its target and looked back to Uncle Isniu which made him jump back warily. At the same time, the other Dark Elves that managed to go through the black spikes charge forward.

Equipped with their bows and arrows, they circles the Cursed Bee and started firing their arrows.

Although they were not as quick as Adhara and Uncle Isniu, itʼs clear that they are agile creatures judging by the acrobatics they use to dodge the attack from the Cursed Bee. Itʼs quite impressive to look at them dodging while simultaneously keep firing their arrows.

From the looks of it, everything is going well, but that takes a turn for the worst in the next second.

One of the Dark Elves made a wrong move and twisted his ankle which made him stop for a second, but that second is enough for the Cursed Bee that has wounds all over its body due to the arrows to impale the Dark Elf with its drill-like pointy-arm.

Stab!

”Haahk!!”, blood gushes out of the Dark Elfʼs mouth severely.

But under the watch of the other Dark Elves that keeps on firing their arrows to help their friend, the Cursed Bee stab another of its arm into the Dark Elf before ripping him apart. Everything is dyed red as the blood splashes into the surroundings.

”Donʼt be swayed! Keep moving!”, Uncle Isniu commanded from the side.

Although he commanded the other Dark Elves to keep on moving their bodies since the Cursed Bee went instantly back to attack them again, some of the Dark Elves oddly stayed in their spots unmoving despite the approaching Cursed Bee.

Due to that, the Dark Elves started falling one by one as the Cursed Bee stabbed and kill them.

Upon seeing this Adhara landed beside Uncle Isniu before she asked with a frown on her face, clearly confused as to what she was seeing, ”Why are they not moving?! Are they even fighters? How can they be so clumsy just from one death”

Uncle Isniu also frowns before he instantly dashes forward and jumps over the Cursed Bee.

Reaching out his hand, he manages to stamp the Cursed Bee and leaves another black flower symbol on its forehead. Jumping to the side and rolling, he dodges the Cursed Beeʼs attack before going back beside Adhara.

Soon the three black flowers connected before Uncle Isniuʼs eyes burn with dark nature energy.

Pausing for a few seconds while the other Dark Elves are still fighting and freezing randomly, Uncle Isniu snapped back out of his daze before he frowns, ”Curse of Cowardice... that Cursed Bee is empowered by the Curse of Cowardice”

”Curse of Cowardice? What does it do and how can we kill it?”, Adhara asked again.

But seeing the frown on Uncle Isniuʼs face shows that it must be hard to kill the Cursed Bee that is empowered by the Curse of Cowardice. ”Curse of Cowardice will petrify others that develop even the slightest bit of fear while fighting it and strengthen the Cursed Bee. Running is not an option ever since we started to fight it. As for killing the Cursed Bee, we need to make it somehow fear us...”

Now that they know the curse, they know why the Dark Elves freeze randomly.

Turns out those Dark Elves started to develop a hint of fear when they saw their friends die brutally by the might of the Cursed Bee, the Curse of Cowardice petrify them before the Cursed Bee comes in for the kill.

Adhara frowns for a moment while pondering something inside her mind.

On the side, Uncle Isniu informed the other Dark Elves so that they donʼt get petrified by the Curse of Cowardice. But even though they knew, it was easier said than done to stop any hint of fear to develop inside of him.

Curse of Cowardice is ruthless, not even the slightest bit of fear is tolerated.

While the fight continues on, Adhara looks over her shoulders to look at the castle that is still standing powerfully and the castle that they call home. Looking back to the Cursed Bee, her eyes flash with resoluteness.

Swish!

Adhara circulate her Werewolf form white energy before her eyes glowed completely white.

”Iʼm going to try something, tell your people to stand back. Iʼm going to have a one-on-one duel with this damn cursed creature scum...”
