Chapter 354 Meera Versus Catherine
Chapter 354 Meera Versus Catherine
It was a quick night for Catherine. She could release much of her pent-up frustration towards her husband after their physical intimacy lasted for four hours.
As they lay in bed spooning, Catherine said, "As much as I don't care for other women, I don't want you to have a harem. But if you bring them to me, it just makes me want to beat the crap out of them. Anyway, I'm your chief wife, the Queen, right?"
Damien pecked her on the forehead and replied, "Yes, my Queen!" He then added, "Listen, the petite girl is my disciple, and the other lady, you better not provoke her. She is quite a strong woman at the top."
However, his words seemed to intrigue her. "Oh, that's interesting!" she said. Then she pondered, 'A strong woman, huh! Then I'll discipline her, starting from her.'
Damien then remembered some details of how Countess Meera had followed him, leaving everything she had behind in the Tenderloin World. And he added, "I've got some urgent matters to attend to. So, I'll leave her in your care to learn English and our ways here."
"Hmm," Catherine said, making eye contact. "Sure, I can do that. But why me?"
"Because I trust you." He responded briskly.
"Oh, then I won't let you down."
Later, Damien left with Layla and Miss Kimera Onsen on a sleek aircraft, leaving Catherine and Meera alone on the black lumber ship.
The two ladies waved their hands as they sent off the aircraft. Turning around, they gazed at each other.
Catherine was the first one to speak. "Hi there. You must be Meera. It's very nice to meet you." She spoke in Sanskrit.
"The feeling is mutual, Cath!" Meera, the Nagina, responded with a friendly smile.
"What!... What did you just call me?" Catherine yelled, frowning.
"Did I say something wrong?" asked Meera innocently.
Laughing dryly, Catherine dashed and punched at her. "I hold the highest rank in his harem. So be respectful to me."
Instinctively, Meera dodged the swift punch. However, it was followed by multiple barrages of coordinated kicks and punches. Thus, they began engaging in a melee tussle, with one attacking and the other defending all the time.
'Oh, good reflex! Then let's take this to the next level.' Thinking about that, Catherine began her attack once again. This time, the attacks were faster and fiercer than before.
Meera masterfully avoided her for the next two minutes, but a kick landed on her behind, sending her flying into the air.
Flipping twice in the mid-air, Meera landed agilely on the deck. Then she spotted Catherine's smirk. "So, your intention is to suppress me. Then bring it on!" She cried, expelling a powerful aura along with her voice.
"Ho-ho, that's my girl." Raising her right hand in the air, Catherine said. "Ice bullet!" Immediately, an ice elemental bullet materialized in the air just before her index finger, shooting toward Meera.
"Humph!" Meera snorted and waved her long silk sleeve, sending a small wind wave imbued with a thin, light-greenish hue. The wind wave collided with the incoming ice bullet and exploded, breaking into multiple tiny shards of ice energy. Bang!
"Ice Sword!" Catherine shouted, and a long butterfly sword materialized in her hand. Then, kicking one leg on the deck, she darted towards Meera.
A long, water-elemental trident also materialized in Meera's hands, blocking the swift slash from the sword. Clank!
The momentum, along with the butterfly sword, was so overwhelming that Meera was forced to step three steps back. However, Catherine continued, slashing Meera with the water-elemental sword from multiple intricate angles. This pushed Meera further back towards one edge of the deck.
"Pathetic! Is this all you got?" Catherine taunted. And it worked.
Former Countess Meera, who was in the limelight for Thousand Years in the Tenderloin World, had never been talked down to like this by anyone, not even the great Goddess Medusa. So, naturally, she was enraged.
Leaping into the air, she lifted the Black God Sigil, which was suppressing her Nagina genes as taught by Damien before he took off. In the next instant, her legs transformed into a long, golden, scaly tail.
"If you want to suppress me, then you better try harder." Swaying her long tail, she released over ten thousand golden scales. "Eat my beautiful scales!" she yelled, shooting a volley of snake scales at Catherine.
Meanwhile, Catherine ignited her vampiric bloodline and chanted a mantra along with a series of hand seals. "Bloodline Ice Lotus, Activate!" she cried. White fumes expelled from every orifice of her body and materialized into a light blue, gigantic lotus. Under her control, the lotus spun rapidly in the air and blocked each of the incoming snake scales.
"Oh, what an interesting skill!" Meera praised as she watched the colorful lotus destroying all of Catherine's scales. This was the first time she had seen such an aesthetic and powerful skill.
"I'm not done yet!" Catherine yelled proudly. "Take this," she said, tossing the Ice Lotus towards Meera, who levitated in the air.
Sensing the danger from the incoming lotus, Meera whispered a summoning spell as she shouted: "Subhadra, My Soul Weapon, Come Forth to your mummy!"
With a crack, a thick black lightning bolt struck down from the sky and a golden cobra slipped through the spatial tear and landed in Meera's hands, transforming into a golden trident. Infusing her Origin Qi into the weapon, she speared the twirling ice lotus, causing it to explode.
"Sorry for destroying your lotus. Tee-hehe!" Meera laughed.
Instead of reacting to her insult, Catherine praised her. "Good!" she said. "Alright, come on. Let's fight to our heart's content!" Igniting her Dracula bloodline, she dashed into the air.
Thus, the two ladies began their melee tussle once again; one with a trident and another with a sword dripping with dark red blood. Over time, Catherine started morphing into her Dracula form; tanner skin tone, and a pair of bloody red horns protruding out from her forehead.
The fight continued for the next half an hour, with Catherine's Dracula form becoming more prominent as her skin tone grew darker and a pair of bloody red horns protruded from her forehead. In the end, Catherine emerged victorious, but the fight brought the two women closer together as they both gained a newfound respect for one another's abilities. The chapter ends with the two of them standing side by side, ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead.
