Chapter 202 – Aiko is finished…

Warning light Gore!

Read at your own risk!

Aiko was chasing the assassins, unaware that they were trying to regroup with the main unit.

They were desperately trying to get away from this lunatic who used their comrades' heads as flails and cannonballs.

"And another one~!" Aiko shouted excitedly as she threw another severed head at them.

*BOOM*

Another assassin bit the dirt and died; getting his body crushed.

Aiko chuckled, feeling amused from the speed which the assassins were running away from her. This was the fun she was looking for! Them running away... and her chasing after them with pole-

"Wait! Where are my poles?!" Aiko cried out, realising that there were no poles around.

They were already so far away that she couldn't see that Private Garden...

Anger bubbled inside her body. She would absolutely obliterate these fuckers!

Aiko threw with all her strength, ignoring the pain.

*Boom*

The severed head easily broke the sound barrier after it left Aiko's hand.

Aiko flinched at that sound since it was painful to her sensitive ears. That pain fuelled her anger even more.

The cannonball ripped through the air and collided with the running assassin. His body bent unnaturally as the severed head didn't want to just stop, but kept going and going...

*BOOOM*

It broke some well-ornamented walls, which Aiko ignored and rushed after them.

...

{Inside the Royal Palace: Throne Room}

*BOOOM*

A body broke through the incredibly reinforced wall like it was a simple wooden wall, not stopping until it collided with another 20 assassins.

The people in the Throne Room fell silent at this and Chen Shi massaged his temples.

Lady Liu pursed her lips because she saw his reaction.

Aiko was here...

"Alright, you fuckers! I dare you to attack me again!" Aiko was so enraged that she ignored the fact that the damage she sustained was mostly from herself.

The Sect Leaders choked at the little Fox's display.

They did find her terrific when she injured the traitorous Sect Leaders' stomach, but overall she could only be described as cute.

They changed that opinion now.

The little Fox was completely covered in blood, her face was distorted from anger and pain.

She was holding severed heads; her tails were likewise holding severed heads.

The only thought passing through their mind was that she was... not the usual Fox.

They were meek and very soft, but this little Fox was similar to those lunatics from Fiendish Sects!

The assassins in the Throne Room frowned and scoffed at their comrades. How could they be so intimidated by-

*Swish*

Aiko threw another severed head, it once again broke the sound barrier the moment it left her hand.

It collided with a nearby assassin that was staring at her like he would attack her.

*BOOM*

The assassin had no time to block as it was way too quick for him, his body bent unnaturally once again and he was sent flying backwards.

He crashed into a nearby wall, not quite breaking it since his body was sturdier than his comrades, which meant that he absorbed a lot more energy from the head.

The severed head fell down from his body, but every Sect Leaders', Beasts' and assassins' eyes widened.

The severed head was shining! It was in a similar fashion that a Spirit Stone would shine!

That meant it was so packed with Qi that it was leaking!

The assassins no longer underestimated the little Fox, some even wanted to run away.

They could run down the Sect Leaders with no problem, since they would be poisoned eventually.

Meanwhile, the little Fox was standing in the middle of the poison the assassins created and she didn't even flinch!

Sure, she was covered in blood, so it was hard to see her skin and judge if she was poisoned, but this poison would cause one's eyes to lose focus!

The little Fox was completely fine, her eyes were even glaring at them!

...

{Aiko's POV}

"Fucking hell! What useless poison did you spineless bastards bring?!" Aiko spat at them with slurs, feeling even angrier.

"Not only do you want to attack me, but you don't even bring anything that I can level up with!" Aiko stared at them like an unhinged maniac.

A bottle crashed under Aiko and a sweet-smelling nectar spread into her nostrils.

[You have acquired the Title: [Poison Taster]!]
[Poison Taster]
[The User can judge the quality of the poison!]

Aiko glanced at it, she felt much lighter.

Why didn't she dodge the poison bottle, you might ask? Because it came from the throne side, where Aiko noticed the distorted expression of Chen Shi.

That meant she wouldn't be harmed by it!

"Alright!" Aiko gripped the heads. She was feeling much better than previously.

She was unaware that the Snake Lady threw a poison suppressant that was powerful enough to affect the poison in her right arm.

Aiko threw yet another head at them. She threw it at the most 'lavishly' looking assassin.

He had a Storage Pouch on his side, so Aiko judged him to be the leader.

Unfortunately for her, that was not the case. He was just a 100-poison assassin who carried poisons to influence his enemies.

The throw was incomparably more powerful, since Aiko was able to gather more strength in her arm.

Even before it left her hand, it had already broken the sound barrier. Now the speed was already almost 2 times what she had previously thrown.

*Swish*

It blasted through the air, meeting with the assassin.

The assassin didn't even flinch when the head passed through his chest.

He didn't react, nor could he do anything about it.

There was just a hole in his chest which confused him. He didn't feel anything, yet a large part of his body was just gone...

*BOOM*

The perceived speed of time was returning to him and he turned around to see what caused the booming sound.

The wall behind him was completely obliterated and he could see some kind of shooting star going and going...

He turned around; towards the little Fox. His eyes were full of questions, but he couldn't ask them.

He just fell over and died, not even the Undying Pill could save him...

"Bullseye!" Aiko made a fist motion that she achieved what she wanted.

The people in the Throne Room fell silent once again.

Chen Shi tightened his lips, while he was unhappy to see the little Fox... she sure worked quickly.

He was impressed by what she created in such a short period of time and how much fear she was able to inflict upon the fearless assassins.

[You have acquired the Title: [Idol of Fear]!]
[Idol of Fear]
[The User naturally inflicts fear upon others. (Can be turned off)]

Aiko ignored it once again since she was not finished.

"Who is next~?!" Aiko looked at them, but none of the assassins met her eyes.

"You!" Aiko pointed at one assassin who had yet another Storage Pouch on his belt.

The assassin looked around as if he was dreaming. He was losing his mind from this encounter, but he had to know.

He pointed at himself.

"Yes, that's right! You~!" Aiko giggled like a menace.

He shook his head from side to side.

"What do you mean no?" Aiko's expression changed for the worse.

"You are the next target!" Aiko proclaimed, clearly upset.

The assassin kept shaking his head; tears swelling in the corners of his eyes.

The Sect Leaders... pitied these assassins. Even they got severe goosebumps from those flying severed heads. Not because it was gruesome, but because it was just so packed with Qi that even they wouldn't leave unscathed!

"You can't avoid it!" Aiko expressed her desire to throw the severed head.

The assassin wanted to plead his case, but he couldn't... without a tongue, it was useless to try to speak.

Aiko giggled and made a stretching motion.

The assassin lost his mind and immediately dashed away from her.

Aiko giggled, that giggle sent shivers down his spine and he burned his own Vitality to run even faster.

Who cares if he dies due to this! He doesn't want to die from that little nightmare!

Aiko stretched her arm and threw a severed head after him. It was slower this time, since Aiko wished for his body to be left 'intact'.

She loved the collision of the severed head and the body, how it bent and the crunching sounds from it.

That was the main reason for that slowdown, since it was no fun when their bodies didn't react.

*Swish*

The severed head blasted through the air, but it was unnoticeably stronger.

He screamed at the top of his lungs, but due to his disfigured neck, only huffing sounds left his burnt lips.

*BOOM*

It collapsed with his body, but it was not powerful enough to go through it.

But to him burning his Vitality; his body was much stronger so much so that he was able to resist most of the impact.

Unfortunately, as with any other severed head, it wouldn't stop with just that. It kept going and going, taking the assassin with it.

*BOOOM*

An explosion occurred down in the Lower Palace where the assassin was sent flying.

The Sect Leaders and other assassins could barely see his split body, how his intestines spilt out and parts of his brain dropped.

He was dead dead, he wouldn't be able to move even with that Pill...

The assassins shivered and Aiko chuckled darkly.

"Who is next~?" Aiko stared at them once again, but this time the assassins came to a consensus.

Run away!

They immediately dashed in different directions, escaping this mess.

They were severely unprepared to go against them even before the little Fox came! But with that little Fox, they were unable to do anything.

They had to secure the princess, but they couldn't even get close to the secret room in the Throne Room where the Royalty hid!

They cursed their master who didn't provide them with ample resources; cursed their own luck that they ended up like this.

Aiko let them escape; not because she didn't want to play, but because she was tired... and for a good reason.

Beast Cores(65%): 1,000 (33,080)

All that throwing consumed an immense amount of Qi, which caused her to tire down.

She yawned cutely; returning to her cute demeanour, but the sight of her covered in blood was not cute at all!
