Chapter 296 Stella vs Fury Lizard [part 1]
"Kyu~ Kyu~ (Papa, let me deal with the beast)," Gogo asks eagerly, perched on my shoulder, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
"No, Gogo, you have to keep your presence concealed. You can't hunt the beasts," I firmly tell him.
Gogo's antennas droop wearily, and he gives me a pleading look with his puppy-like eyes.
"Kyu~"
I sigh, feeling a bit guilty for denying him the thrill of the hunt. "Ah, come on. "Alright, I'll let you consume the crystal afterwards if it's useless. But don't get happy yet,"
Gogo's eyes light up with joy, and he lets out a cheerful chirp in response.
In the next moment, a loud rumbling sound catches our attention, and we turn to see a massive creature emerging from the ground. It's a large, black lizard with sharp spikes sprouting from its back – a Fury Lizard.
[Inspect]
[Beast Type: Fury Lizard]
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt[Description: The Fury Lizard is a species of lizards that hates to get disturbed. Even the slightest movement or sound will annoy the fury lizard.]
[Level: Demi-god Rank]
[Power/Ability: Extremely poisonous. The fury lizard can cover its body in deadly poison, making any life that comes in contact with it meet an early demise.]
I raise an eyebrow, surprised by the creature's formidable level. No wonder Gogo wanted to take it on; the thrill of a challenge seemed to excite him.
I glance at Stella, who is gripping her spear tightly, her body glowing slightly with an aura of readiness.
"Stella, don't let the beast touch your skin. It's poisonous," I warn her, my voice filled with concern. Stella nods her head in response, her determination unwavering.
In the next moment, as if she teleported, Stella's figure starts appearing randomly in the area as she uses her speed ability to dash towards the furious beast. Her movements are like a blur, making it difficult for the creature to predict her attacks.
Sensing the agile figure emerging towards it, the Fury Lizard swings its large tail, destroying everything in its path. It continues to charge forward, its poisonous aura growing more intense with each passing moment.
Due to the sudden action of the beast, Stella leaps backward, narrowly avoiding the tail the lizard swung at her. It's a close call, and the tail manages to slam against her armor, causing a loud clang to echo through the forest.
Bang!
With a deafening sound, Stella is sent flying across the forest, breaking through many trees as she skids backwards with incredible force. Finally, she manages to stop her momentum by thrusting her spear into the ground.
Seeing what occurred, I rush to her side, my heart pounding in my chest. "Stella, are you alright?" I ask, concern evident in my voice.
She looks up at me with a determined glint in her eyes, despite her battered appearance. "I'm fine, Jake. Just a little shaken, but I can keep going."
Now that I notice, the armor on her chest seems to be melting due to the poison but it's constantly repairing itself and getting rid of the poison. It's a common feature that almost all the armor on the vampire planet has. The effect is stronger based on the tier of the armor. action
?"Alright, be careful," I tell Stella, who nods in reply and charges towards the beast again.
ROAR!!!!!!!
The beast bellows as it senses Stella dashing towards it once more. This time, Stella's speed increases as she dances around the forest in a very fast motion. With a sudden burst of energy, she leaps into the sky, descending upon the head of the beast with her spear.
ROARR!!!!!!!
The fury lizard swings its large tail, trying to shield its head from Stella's attack, causing her spear to burst right through its tail instead of hitting the head.
"Fuck!" Stella curses out as she realizes her mistake. She tries to remove her spear from the tail of the beast, but it won't budge.
Meanwhile, the fury lizard turns its head 360 degrees, looking at Stella with its deadly cyan eyes. A chill runs down my spine as I watch the dangerous predator focus its attention on her.
"Stella, watch out!" I shout, my heart pounding in my chest as I see the fury lizard's deadly gaze fixed on her.
But Stella is quick on her feet. She manages to leap back just in time, narrowly avoiding the deadly poison strike from the enraged creature.
"Master, I can't get my spear out of its tail!" Stella calls out in frustration, pointing at her stuck weapon.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Should I get rid of the beast?" Arthur asks me, putting his hand on his sword. Oh, I forgot to mention, Arthur's new sword is now the demon-tier sword Old Man Duke gave me. For some reason, Zamira returned it to me because she couldn't put it to use like Old Man Duke during his prime. The active skills of the sword don't resonate with her prowess.
"No, don't help her. If things get out of hand, we'll butt in. It's better for her to have near-death experiences," I tell Arthur.
Looking back at the scene ongoing between Stella and the beast, I let out a chuckle. The beast is chasing Stella around the forest, shooting tons of poisonous spit balls from its mouth, which Stella swiftly evades with her ability.

Stella runs around the forest, but the lizard keeps chasing her, surprisingly fast even for its size.
"Screw it!!!! I am only avoiding you because of your poison. If not, I would have easily beaten your damn ugly face!" Stella curses as she continues running forward.
Stella's determination is admirable, and her insults are entertaining, but I can't help but worry about her. The fury lizard's poison is deadly, and one wrong move could prove fatal. But I have faith in her abilities, and I trust that she knows what she's doing.
As I watch the chase, I notice Gogo standing on my shoulder, watching the spectacle with keen interest. "Kyu~ Kyu~" he exclaims, as if cheering Stella on.
