Chapter 790: The Blood of Two Queens — Perfect Synchronisation!

Despite the silver-haired woman’s changes, there wasn’t any fear in the eyes of Nikita, who glanced towards Selene as their lips curved upward into wide grins.

"Then, let’s fight!"

"Yeah, sure."

They’d practised this countless times. However, most of their attempts ended with one woman complaining about the other’s mistakes. The two women both stepped closer, watching the silver-haired vampire.

’Come on, Selene...’

Nikita lowered her body.

’Don’t fuck this up.’

The silver-haired vampire launched herself forward.

CLAAAAANG!

Her first blade struck Nikita’s golden claws, producing an enormous shockwave that cracked the concrete beneath their feet.

However, the second blade immediately swept towards the werewolf’s exposed neck.

’There!’

Selene raised her right hand.

Several thin streams of crimson blood wrapped around Nikita’s arm, following the golden aura spreading across her muscles. At the same time, Selene’s body became almost ethereal and see-through.

CRACK!

A thick layer of frozen blood formed around her forearm as Nikita twisted and intercepted the second blade with a spinning swipe.

CLAAAAANG!

"...WHAT?!"

The Vampire’s eyes widened at her attack being stopped, was she surprised at the force, or the sudden frozen blood shield? Or maybe it was the way both women had reacted without communicating.

"We did it!" Nikita grinned, bouncing up and down. "Hehe!"

Before twisting her hips and delivering another frozen punch, forcing the vampire back several steps, however, before she could escape, Selene’s blood art shot from Nikita’s fist and froze around her boots.

"...Shit!"

BANG!

The momentary hindrance allowed Nikita’s fist to strike her cleanly.

The vampire’s armour cracked beneath the impact, sending her stumbling backwards.

Yet before Nikita could follow, several shots rang out from the remaining gun emplacement.

BANG! BANG!

"Don’t worry, ignore them". Selene’s voice came from behind Nikita’s head as she turned to see a wave of ice covering the sky, blocking the shots.

The crimson barrier emerged beside Nikita, intercepting the incoming projectiles.

Although the specialised bullets began destroying the frozen blood almost immediately, the brief protection was enough. Selene’s figure had vanished, becoming like a ghost latching onto Nikita’s back.

This allowed the two women to mix their talents almost perfectly.

Nikita supplied overwhelming strength and speed, while Selene controlled the distance, restricting the vampire’s movements whenever she attempted to retreat.

But something was changing.

The golden aura covering Nikita’s body began following Selene’s blood more naturally, while the vampire found it increasingly easier to predict the werewolf’s movements.

’Strange...’

Selene narrowed her eyes as she felt their blood mixing together naturally, as if she were with Nikolai... this hadn’t happened before, as normally, controlling another person’s blood required considerable concentration and effort.

’The most I could do before was make a small ice blood spear...’

In fact...

’It’s almost like controlling my own.’

She glanced towards the golden strands spreading through her crimson blood, this was the special power of the Fenrir clan... their ability to explosively increase their physical strength and capabilities.

The two energies remained separate.

But they no longer seemed to reject each other.

"Nikita!"

"Hm?!"

"Now!"

The werewolf immediately understood and released a tremendous amount of golden aura before driving her claws towards the silver-haired vampire.

The woman could only raise her blades across her body.

CLAAAAANG!

Their weapons collided.

However, rather than forcing her attack through, Nikita allowed the golden aura surrounding her claws to spread into the crimson blood that Selene had gathered around the enemy’s weapons.

The two powers suddenly reacted.

"...Eh?"

Nikita felt an enormous pressure rushing through her arm.

Selene’s expression changed.

’It’s working?!’

For a brief moment, the golden aura and crimson blood intertwined, forming a strange dark gold light around the vampire’s blades.

The silver-haired woman stared at the phenomenon.

"...What is this?!"

Neither Nikita nor Selene answered because both were struggling to control the unfamiliar sensation.

’Fuck!’

Nikita gritted her teeth as the power was far more violent than she’d expected. Meanwhile, Selene’s blood began boiling, forcing her to concentrate everything on preventing the technique from collapsing.

"NIKITA!"

"I KNOW!"

The werewolf roared.

"JUST FUCKING RELEASE IT!"

Selene immediately obeyed.

BOOOOOOOOOOM!

An enormous explosion erupted between the three women.

Crimson flames mixed with brilliant golden energy, destroying the vampire’s blades and sending her body crashing through the reinforced walkway.

KRAAAAAANG!

The surrounding barriers collapsed.

Several soldiers were thrown from their positions, while the remaining gun emplacement disappeared beneath the shattered concrete.

Nikita stumbled backwards.

"...AGH!"

Her right arm trembled violently, several small wounds opening across her skin.

Selene dropped onto one knee, blood dripping from her nose.

"...Haa!"

For several seconds, neither woman spoke.

Then Nikita slowly turned towards her.

"...Oi."

Selene raised her head.

"What?"

The werewolf stared at her injured hand.

"...That was fucking awesome."

"..."

Selene blinked.

Then burst into laughter.

"Fufufu! You stupid dog!"

"Hahaha!"

Despite their injuries, the two women couldn’t stop laughing as they held hands obliviously, just excited and happy at their first successful attempt.

Although both women glanced at each other, thinking the exact same thoughts.

’It hurt like hell!’

Nikita stretched her fingers, slowly clenching and unclenching them, while the golden aura surrounding her body became unstable again, from double the size it was when fused with Selene, to half the size at best.

They’d barely controlled the combined attack. And the backlash was considerably worse than either expected. But before they could celebrate further, a violent cough came from beneath the collapsed walkway.

"...You... fucking monsters..."

Both of them turned back, eyes wide open and jaws dropping.

The silver-haired vampire was still alive.

Her armour had been destroyed, and one of her arms hung uselessly beside her body.

Yet she continued struggling to stand.

"...What a persistent bitch."

Selene staggered, slowly adjusting her posture and standing beside Nikita. "Yeah... I agree with you for once."

"Let’s finish this."

Selene smiled.

"Together, this time."

BANG!

Both women launched themselves towards the wounded vampire.

The silver-haired vampire raised her remaining blade. However, her trembling fingers struggled to grip it. Nikita’s golden claws struck against the weapon.

CLAAAAANG!

The crimson blade shattered into countless fragments. Several pieces pierced the vampire’s exposed shoulder. Before she recovered, Selene attacked from behind. A dozen frozen spears surrounded the woman. Each spear carried a faint golden glow.

"Fucking hell, not this again!"

The vampire twisted, narrowly avoiding the first volley. However, Nikita had already closed the distance. Her fist slammed against the woman’s stomach. The impact launched her into Selene’s spears.

BOOOOOOM!

"AGHHHH!"

Blood erupted from the vampire’s ruined abdomen. Three frozen spears pierced her remaining shoulder. The others shattered against her reinforced bones. She screamed while forcing her body forward. Thick crimson tendrils emerged from her wounds.

’She’s still got that much power?!’

Nikita frowned and raised her golden claws. However, the tendrils suddenly multiplied around them. Several attacked Selene, forcing her to retreat. Others wrapped around Nikita’s arms and legs.

CRACK!

"Get your fucking hands off me!"

Nikita flexed her muscles, tearing several tendrils apart. Unfortunately, the remaining blood hardened around her ankles. The vampire smiled through her broken teeth. Her remaining arm transformed into crimson spikes.

"YOU FUCKING MONSTERS! I’LL KILL YOU BOTH!"

Selene suddenly appeared beside Nikita’s trapped body. Her crimson eyes narrowed at those spikes. Several frozen barriers formed around the werewolf. However, the vampire’s attack shattered them instantly.

KRAAAAAANG!

"Fufufu, you’re quite the persistent woman."

Selene raised her hand with a smile. Her blood flowed beneath the vampire’s feet. Meanwhile, Nikita stopped struggling against the restraints. Golden lightning erupted across her entire body.

’Come on, just a little more!’

The vampire lunged towards Nikita’s exposed chest. However, her feet suddenly sank into crimson ice. The brief hesitation was enough for Nikita. Her golden aura erupted with renewed strength.

BOOOOOOM!

The blood restraints exploded into countless fragments. Nikita caught the approaching crimson spikes barehanded. Her claws crushed them with tremendous force. The vampire’s eyes widened in utter disbelief.

"HOW ARE YOU STILL MOVING?!"

"Hehe, because I’m fucking stronger than you!"

Nikita twisted and grabbed the woman’s throat. Her golden claws pierced the pale flesh. However, she didn’t deliver the finishing blow. Instead, she glanced towards Selene with excitement.

"Oi, bloodsucker! Let’s finish her together!"

Selene laughed and raised her injured hand. Crimson blood gathered around Nikita’s extended claws. This time, the golden aura responded naturally. Yet neither attempted their earlier explosive combination.

CRACK!

Frozen blood enclosed the vampire’s remaining arm. The woman struggled, desperately releasing her aura. However, Nikita’s grip continued growing stronger. Her golden claws slowly tightened around the throat.

"WAIT! MY FATHER WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU!"

"...Father?" Nikita tilted her head slightly. "Who gives a fuck about your father?"

Selene’s crimson eyes narrowed with sudden interest. However, she didn’t interrupt her companion’s attack. Several frozen blades gathered above their enemy.

"Well, perhaps Nikolai can question him instead."

"Hehe, that’s a pretty good idea!"

The silver-haired vampire opened her mouth again. Interrupted before she could speak, Nikita’s claws suddenly closed around her neck and squeezed tight without a care for her words or threat.

The woman’s head separated from her shoulders.

At the same time, Selene’s blades descended, and frozen spikes of blood pierced the collapsing body, repeatedly tearing it apart.

The moment the body fell, an enormous crimson flame consumed the remains.

Nikita released the severed head into the fire, and both women watched until nothing remained.

"...Haa, finally killed that fucking bitch."

Selene sighed and wiped her bloody nose. Her exhausted smile slowly returned once more.

"Fufufu, quite the troublesome opponent, wasn’t she?"

Nikita grinned before grabbing Selene’s hand again.

"Hehe! Let’s find our husband, bloodsucker!"

"Yeah... let’s kill our way to meet him again."

Selene squeezed Nikita’s hand as the two women rushed past the destroyed embankment and countless corpses without a care in the world.
