Otaku Witch

Chapter 1204: Chapter 689: Offense and Defense

Although the incantation for liberating Red Shadow was quite embarrassing, making Dorothy, who had long outgrown her adolescent phase over several lifetimes, awkwardly curl her toes, the power unleashed by the Demon Blade was undeniably real.

This time, it wasn’t like the half-liberation used when slicing through low-level ronin earlier; it was the full liberation used once before at the Oiran Banquet.

Dorothy held the sword horizontally in front of her, and the scarlet blade suddenly shimmered, like a river of blood, with striking red waves clearly visible within.

Then, a red Flood Dragon soared up from the river, breaking through the dimensional wall and emerged from the blade.

The Red Dragon coiled up her arm that gripped the sword, finally wrapping around her body and transforming into a lively over-the-shoulder dragon tattoo, exuding a strange yet inexplicable divine majesty.

Subsequently, the demon power from the Abyssal Blood Sea poured forth from the red dragon tattoo, imbuing Dorothy.

The already tall Homebody Witch’s body immediately underwent a second growth spurt, her original height of 1.8 meters swiftly expanded to nearly 3 meters, and the gigantic Great Tachi of over 2 meters long, cumbersome to wield before her transformation, now seemed perfectly suited.

An endless stream of power coursed through her body, making the Homebody Witch feel so good that she almost wanted to scream, gripping the sword hilt firmly and savoring the sensation of each movement filled with Pava.

The liberation of the Demon Sword Princess resulted in the most perfect state of Unity of Man and Sword, allowing all attributes and strengths between human and sword to be shared and balanced, achieving an effect greater than the sum of the parts.

Dorothy lacked Magic Power, but as a centenarian witch, even if Red Shadow wasn’t the most gifted in Magic Power, she still accumulated around 400,000 Mana over time, the standard for a Great Witch.

At this moment, all this magic power obeyed the will of Dorothy, the Sword Master, as if it were her own.

As for the paltry 70,000 Magic Power of the Homebody Witch herself…

Oh, due to the magical transformation effect, those 70,000 little witch Magic Power were merely small ripples in the flood of 400,000 Great Witch Magic Power.

However, as a Demon Sword Princess, Red Shadow’s Talent Specialization focused entirely on enhancing the sword form and the Sword Master’s attributes, so her own six-dimensional stats were not impressive.

A normal Great Witch’s six-dimensional stats would typically be at level B, the excellent ones could reach level A, and a small portion of talents might touch the realm of level S, but Red Shadow’s stats were almost all level C; only her Precision, achieved through years of dedicated swordsmanship practice, reached level S, marking an extreme case of specialization with slightly lackluster innate combat power.

However, no worries — Dorothy may lack Magic Power, but is not short on six-dimensional attributes.

Especially now, with the added support from Red Shadow’s Abyssal Demon Power, her attributes further improved.

[Strength: S]

[Speed: S]

[Physique: S]

[Spirit: S]

[Inspiration: SS]

[Precision: SS]

Well, this is a downright monster in terms of stats, which would make any ordinary Great Witch exclaim “cheating” at first glance.

Such exaggerated stats combined with the attribute boost brought by over 400,000 Mana really gave Dorothy an illusion of having everything under control, leaving her somewhat elated.

Invincible below the Peak, but above the Peak… let’s forget it; can’t manage a one-for-one.

Anyway, who’s left?

So, facing the obese Lord crushing her way, the Homebody Witch looked up.

Above her head, a pair of antler-like, scarlet horns gradually grew out, while numerous rhombus-shaped Blood Crystals floated behind her, neatly arranged to form a perfectly symmetrical circle.

She slowly raised the Red Shadow in her hand, with Sword Intent of One Mind of Dreams already imbued in it.

Her muscles in her sword-wielding right hand suddenly bulged, only to retract immediately, while the whole arm emitted hot steam.

This was the Dragon Battle Method she created during Witch’s Night — Dragon Demon Super Solution.

Of course, during Witch’s Night, her body was soaked in Life Essence for hundreds of years, allowing her to use such self-damaging Unique Techniques without burden, but returning to reality now, she couldn’t recklessly squander her Life Force anymore.

Though a tenfold liberation was unfeasible, a fivefold liberation was manageable.

Even though it still inflicted a massive load on her body, in that split second, her bones nearly shattered by the violent force, and her swollen muscles almost snapped from the pressure, several Blood Crystals from the blood crystal ring shattered, swiftly repairing her arm almost completely.

This was the power of Red Shadow.

Red Shadow had the ability to connect to the Abyssal Blood Sea, drawing power from the blood-sea cradle that nurtured countless demons.

The Blood Crystals behind Dorothy at this moment were precisely the Blood Sea Power that Red Shadow absorbed bit by bit from the Abyssal Blood Sea over time.

Most demons are born from the Blood Sea, so the power of the Blood Sea not only corrupts and erodes others’ powers and weapons but also nourishes demons and heals their wounds.

Now, as the Homebody Witch temporarily borrowed the power of Red Shadow to transform into a Dragon Demon, she could enjoy the healing effects of these Blood Crystals.

However, being demonic power, the healing effect of these Blood Crystals, though effective, was not painless at all; the process was excruciating, just as if someone used pliers and a stapler to reattach your torn muscles and bones, and finally poured concentrated sulfuric acid to disinfect.
