Abyssal Chronicles

Chapter 549 - 550: Kalina’s Arrival

After blasting the top of Red Moon Tower into rubble, the black-haired girl instantly transformed into a crimson meteor surrounded by bloody butterflies, hurtling directly toward the tower’s central region.

Boom!

With a loud crash, the defensive barriers around Red Moon Tower, along with its thick walls, were shattered to pieces.

Amid the falling debris, the black-haired girl, with her alluring and fair legs, stepped onto the ancient-patterned floor, entering the central ceremonial hall of Red Moon Tower.

Her sudden arrival and the intense, overwhelming pressure made everyone in the room look really serious and scared.

These mages, responsible for guarding the inner part of Red Moon Tower and assisting Ophelia and Anfrere in providing power to the soul demon, hadn’t directly felt the earlier soul-crushing pressure due to protective barriers. Hence, they could still react to the impending threat.

Facing the black-haired girl, they quickly realized that the scary soul demon and the two guardians had failed.

An indescribable fear spread throughout their hearts.

Even so, they still planned to continue executing tower master’s plan, doing their utmost to delay the black-haired girl, even if their own powers were meager.

In their view, even if tower master’s plan continued, their survival was almost impossible. Given that, dying at the hands of the legendary figure seemed more glorious.

With this thought, Red Moon Tower’s mages did not hesitate. They unleashed their most powerful magic, roaring with heart-wrenching screams, directing all their attacks towards the black-haired girl.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhh!"

Simultaneously, the ceremonial hall already had a defense system. Sensing the unfamiliar presence, it immediately activated.

As blue magical light shimmered, dozens of fully-armed creatures made of magic energy were summoned. Wielding weapons with immense destructive power, they charged at the black-haired girl. A giant cannon on the platform aimed at her, releasing all its firepower. Countless magical beams poured down like torrential rain toward the black silhouette.

Without a doubt, compared to the previous siege outside Red Moon Tower, this wave of attacks seemed trivial.

However, this was the most potent attack these Red Moon Tower mages could muster.

Sadly, facing this onslaught, the black-haired girl merely half-closed her eyes, appearing utterly disinterested. She didn’t even make a defensive move, letting the beams bombard her body and the magical knights’ huge swords slash at her delicate figure.

And after this intense assault, the hall returned to silence.

The black-haired girl still stood there, completely unscathed.

In an instant, the magic knights around her disintegrated into basic magical particles. the magical cannons shattered into pieces. Even the mages casting spells were hit back by a strange force, breaking their staffs and collapsing in pain.

The mages of Red Moon Tower couldn’t understand what had happened. The other side had not done anything; their attacks hadn’t even touched her. But why were they so suddenly severely injured?

"How...?" One elder mage wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and struggled to stand. With disbelieving eyes, he looked at the black-haired girl not far away. He wanted to understand what was happening, but he realized he would never get the chance.

Because at that moment, next to the black-haired girl, a crimson butterfly began to gather shadowy particles, its terrifying scarlet light quickly accumulating. The elder mage knew that the moment this energy was released, all of them would vanish.

Realizing this, the elder mage resignedly closed his eyes. As he did, an elegant woman in fine robes appeared in his mind.

"Master Youlan, I hope you have good luck in the battle," he said as his last prayer.

The black-haired girl had no mercy in her eyes. Her instincts told her to eliminate all enemies. Anyone who attacked her was unquestionably an ’enemy’, and enemies had to be killed.

Just as she was about to strike another blow to Red Moon Tower, a familiar voice suddenly entered her ears, filled with urgent emotion. " Mom! Please stop"

A red figure burst into the tower through a crack in the wall, accompanied by a surge of orange-red flame and scorching shadow energy. The figure landed in front of Yumo.

It was a young woman with eyes like a phoenix, long eyelashes, a straight nose, and pink lips. Her red hair was blowing in the wind, and she had a stunning figure. She wore full silver armor with a ’Crimson Lotus’ design on it. The armor showed off her pale skin. She looked both heroic and seductive.

This stunning elder sister was none other than the third child of Yumo. She was the Demon King that held the title of ’Inferno’—Kalina.

"Mom, please calm down!"

Kalina anxiously spread her arms, blocking Yumo’s way. Faced with the sudden appearance of Kalina, Yumo hesitated for a moment. The energy gathering around the crimson butterflies she had summoned was instinctively suppressed by her.

When Yumo looked at Kalina, a flash of doubt appeared in her eyes.

On the other side, feeling the cold and distant gaze that lacked any of the past warmth and affection, Kalina involuntarily shivered. An overwhelming mix of reluctance and confusion rushed into her heart, causing her to bite her lip.

She looked the same, she felt the same, but she wasn’t the person Kalina knew. Clearly, her mother had entered that terrifying and strange state again. And judging by how she looked now, things were not good.

"Damn it," Kalina muttered angrily in her heart.

"Is this what Sister Youlan had planned?"

At this moment, Kalina seemed to guess some part of her elder sister’s plan, Her face turned very serious and angry. However, she also knew that now was not the time to verify her guesses. She had to quickly bring her mother back to her senses.

She didn’t like how her mother was acting now. She had to use the old method to bring her mother back.

With this thought, Kalina took a deep breath. The power and heat within her demonic body erupted from her voluptuous form, flooding the area and enveloping both Yumo and the crimson butterflies.

Now, she was not releasing this energy to confront Yumo or counteract the energy around them. Kalina’s goal was clear: to dispel the human magical energies lingering around her mother and let her bathe in this warm, comforting energy.

Then, Kalina took another deep breath, raised her voice, and wore a ’sweet and innocent’ smile. The next moment, this red-haired woman lovingly wrapped her arm around Yumo and whispered sweetly into her ear. The voice was not the authoritative tone she usually had, but a cute and childlike one— a voice Kalina hadn’t used for many years.

"Mommy~, Kalina wants a hug~"

Yumo: ???
