Chapter 2008 2008. Not Over Yet


    The chaotic mana gathered around Envy immediately. It was clear that the taunts the group had made already sat within Envy''s mind to constantly wear away at him. But now, he was finding that his slime body was being easily beaten.


    Every time he adapted the tentacles to use different elemental slime forms and attacks, he was countered or faced a perfect defense. It made him feel that he was not at all gaining what he hade for. He didn''t even see a single sign of the brilliant slime any more.


    That alone, he also noticed that there were roars of dragons nearby. Not to mention that the slimes he had sent in to murderous rage nearby, were being killed faster and faster. Hundreds of his bred slimes destroyed in minutes.


    Because of the anger induced by the party, Envy had yet to realize that he waspletely within a trap set for him. A trap made by baiting him with a slime he could not make and had not made which was actually much weaker than he even knew. Not that the party would have let him figure that out.


    Yet, right this moment, Envy was bringing all the chaotic mana that was around and within him. The slimes directly nearby sacrifice themselves but charging in to him. Due to this, the party was forced to retreat.


    They could have released multiple attacks or a wide range attacks that could stop all the slimes suddenly charging at them. But that would have hit the other forces fighting nearby. It would also make the area generally harder to fight in for everyone.


    Not that the party could take their eyes off the massive slime taking a different form in front of them. Envy''s body had proven to be the partial mimic that they already knew it was. He had not real body any longer. He had be a slime core with a slime body. A grotesque experimental monster. Everyone felt their skin prickle as they witnessed this proof.


    Multiple different forms of slime tentacles spread out from therger slime body that envy had be. Yellow acid slime tentacles. Purple decaying slime tentacles. Brown earth slime tentacles. Blue water slime tentacles, green wind slime tentacles. Even a few deep red fire slime tentacles.


    They all branched from a body where the manas were attempting to mix but constantly pushing one another away. "I think he tried to copy you Walker. Natural mana, but instead ended up being full of corrupted manas." Gil was spot on.


    From what Walker could sense, the manas that were attempting to meet the core within the slime werepletely chaotic in nature. They could not ever be natural mana because it would greatly go against what was allowing the slime body to even remain as it was right now.


    "It''s also using the mimic skills it has to keep copying the forms of other slimes. I can tell, it''s like slime bodies were mmed together but they are not able to actually move the way they should. Like a puppet moving on strings. You just know it''s wrong." Remey''s insult appeared to have been heard as one of each tentacle attacked her. This was Envy''s first real attack.


    Hitting Remey though? Not a single chance. She was too quick. That and Su was already making her way in line of the tentacle attacks. The twin shields resist the multiple elemental attacks due to the strengthening from the wandering cksmith. Adding that to her light shield skill? And Remey felt that Su had just slipped in front to help them ensure they were healed.


    "Brother, Midnight is ready to use a light attack as a distraction. Alice is helping her gather the mana while I can make an opening for Remey to deal with some of the acid and decaying slime parts."


    This idea was enough. The party could make openings so that Envy would be distracted. Walker knew well that piercing through the slime body would be tough, therefore, they had to wear away that body and weaken it.


    As Onyxgged out with his tail, Remey dashed forward with multiple potions in hand. She used the mes around her body to heat them. Right to the point that when she tossed them, they burst open in a cloud of boiling potion and steamy potions.


    The two caused Envy''s acid and decaying slime body parts to melt away in chunks. It caused an immediate crazed attack from other tentacles.


    Gil fired water affinity arrows to put out the growing mes from the fire slime. He knew well that maintaining the environment around them was enough to allow for a safer battle. But also because it gave Envy less space that he could see Midnight preparing for a major attack which wouldpletely distract Envy.


    As Alice had pushed a lot of light mana toward Midnight, it helped her condense a light dragon me breath that she had trained along with Su and Alice before. This was abination attack that relied on the draconic might that Midnight could wield.


    Since Envy was already being pulled in multiple directions due to the different attacks from Onyx and Remey, let alone being countered by Su, expecting Midnight to attack with a powerful dragon breath attack was not on the list of worries. Not that his intelligence wassting in this monstrous slime form.


    As Midnight released a beam of powerful light mana, the slight me like appearance was all that could define it as a dragon breath fire attack. Not that it at all had any of the kind healing effects that Alice''s light often had. Instead, it gained the purifying effects.


    Most people would not expect that to do much, but against the decaying slimes? It was a very good attack. The entire section of decaying purple slime body was destroyed leaving a massive chunk of the slime body Envy had made for himself fall apart in to a pool of useless slime. He couldn''t reattach it. He already called over nearby slimes to use them in battle. He had no means to heal right now.


    Beyond this, he had not noticed Walker changing the eternal codex in to a spear. A spear with darkness mana radiating through and around it. "Mordant, it''s time for you to show what adominator dragon can do."


    Pulling his arm back, Walker used all his force to throw the spear along with push against it with natural mana to boost the attack. However, he had called out to Mordant for a reason.


    The darkness mana that Walker channeled within the spear form of the eternal codex had not been to add a decaying effect that darkness mana could have. It was to allow Mordant the ability to better control the spear form of the eternal codex when it was thrown.


    Mordant was the only dragon that had the ability to make it to the battle almost instantly. Not to mention that he had been lurking in the shadows as a trump card. As the hidden power that could erupt out to help with the killing blow to envy as a whole.


    He could use the newfound strength as a dominator dragon to harness the mana that Walker gathered. Even when boosted with natural mana, the darkness mana that Walker could have controlled was easily grabbed by Mordant''s control.


    His hulking darkness dominator dragon form was intimidating enough. Yet, Envy couldn''tprehend that as Mordant''s shadow pushed the spear in to the center of the slime body. Piercing the slime core that should have been the reason that envy was unable to be beaten. The slime core that Envy thought he would be able to live forever and always adapt to every single potential issue in life. He had been wrong.


    "I would have had it all." These words seemed to echo through the now silent battle ground. Thest words of the sin of Envy title holder who had done countless evil things with the slime she bred and forced on to the world as destroyers.


    The slime body fell apart instantly. Mordant looked at the cracking slime core which appeared to be slower in breaking. However, the eternal codex had just pierced it and fall out of it before returning to Walker with Walker''s control. The slime core itself was notpletely smashed or broken yet.


    "Don''t rx! The chaotic elemental manas are going to burst out. We need to control it!" Walker jumped forward as he noticed the royal dragons arriving just in time. The battle had been short in the span of minutes overall. However, that was just the trap they had perfectly set. It was not the battle of chaotic manas that they were not about to face so that a massive area would not be corrupted by the chaotic manas.
