Leveling Up by Seducing Milfs-Chapter 133. Coordinated Collapse

"OH, GREAT HEAVENS!"

"WOULD YOU TWO STOP THAT ALREADY?!" Liora’s voice had a heavenly authority that made both women stop.

"Look at yourselves! You’re fighting each other like kids instead of the enemy! This is exactly what the Archon wants!"

She pointed to Rick, who was unconscious and being watched over by Carmilla and Natasha at the edge of the battlefield. "That man over there jumped in front of a Corruption Titan to save Zara’s life!"

"He lived through Dragon Trials that should have killed him to get Sylvia’s bond."

"He almost died making Spirit Bonds because he thought it was the only way to save this world!"

Liora’s eyes were full of golden light. "And what are you two up to?!"

"Fighting over pride and ego while he lies broken because he gave everything to protect people he barely knows!"

"Is this how you show respect for his sacrifice?"

"Is this the strength he believed in?"

The words hit them like physical blows. Sylvia’s anger went away and was replaced by what might have been shame. Zara looked down at her husband’s broken body and finally let the tears she had been holding back fall.

Zara said in a low voice, "You’re right."

"I’m sorry... It’s not about me."

"It’s about stopping my husband from killing everyone..."

Sylvia landed hard and folded her wings. "I’m sorry too."

"My pride made it hard for me to think clearly. Rick wouldn’t want us to fight."

Liora nodded, and some of the stress left her shoulders. "Then let’s do this right."

"We do this my way! You’re our heavy attacker, Sylvia. No one can match your dragon fire and physical strength."

"Zara, you are fast and accurate. You look for chances and take advantage of them. I’ll help, heal, and put up barriers as needed."

"Agreed," both women said at the same time.

The Corrupted Zork had used their arguing to heal some of its wounds, using corruption energy to knit flesh back together. It roared because it knew its enemies were getting their act together.

"Sylvia, attack from the air!" Liora gave the order. "Keep it pointed up!"

The Dragon Queen ascended into the air silently, circling the creature while unleashing precise bursts of dragon fire. These were not random attacks because each strike was a calculated effort designed to keep the Corrupted Zork focused on the sky.

"Zara, low strikes!"

"Put it in the hamstring!"

The Demon General glided through the air like a shadow in water, her blades glinting as they sliced through the creature’s legs. She wasn’t aiming to kill it. Instead, she focused on harassing it until it lost its balance.

The Corrupted Zork tried to fight back, but every time it focused on one enemy, the other would hit it. Zara would cut tendons when it reached for Sylvia. Sylvia would rake its back with her claws when it tried to crush Zara.

Liora’s barriers would show up right where they were needed whenever either warrior was in danger, turning killing blows into glancing strikes.

They fought as a team now, and even though they had never trained together, their movements were in sync. Zara took advantage of the openings that Sylvia’s dragon fire made.

Zara’s speed made the creature go too far, which made it open to Sylvia’s deadly physical attacks. Liora’s divine magic kept both warriors in the fight by healing their wounds and keeping them safe from counterattacks.

The demon army that was watching from the sidelines cheered. Their general fought with two other Major Powers, showing the kind of teamwork that made history.

"RIP OFF ITS ARMOR!" Liora yelled out, already getting ready to cast a strong spell.

Sylvia got it right away. She dove down from above, with all four claws out.

Her claws, each as long as a sword, pierced through the creature’s rotten flesh in its shoulders and tore downward. Huge pieces of damaged armor were ripped off, revealing the raw flesh underneath.

Zara was already on the move. She jumped high, using Sylvia’s falling body as a springboard, and drove both of her blades into the creature’s chest, where the flesh was exposed.

Zara exerted all her strength to carve downward, creating a large cut that oozed black ichor.

"NOW!" Liora pushed both of her hands forward.

A pillar of pure divine light shot up from the ground under the Corrupted Zork, going through the wound Zara had made. The holy energy burned through the creature’s corrupted flesh from the inside, and its painful roar shook the whole camp.

For a second, it seemed like they might really win.

Then the corruption took action.

A wave of pure corrupt power shot out of the Corrupted Zork’s body in a burst of purple energy. They caught Sylvia in the air and sent her crashing to the ground.

Zara was thrown back, and her body rolled across the sand. Even Liora’s defenses broke down, and she fell to her knees.

The wound they had made started to heal, but not in the usual way. Instead, the corruption got thicker and denser, making layers of armor that were harder than before.

The creature’s muscles got even bigger, and its body grew to be thirteen feet tall.

It had adapted to how they dealt with their plan.

The Corrupted Zork now moved with terrifying intelligence. The creature was ready when Sylvia tried to attack it from the air again.

Its tail moved faster than ever, hitting the Dragon Queen and slamming her to the ground with enough force to make a crater. The creature’s foot came down on her wing, holding her down before she could get back up.

When the pressure got too much, Sylvia screamed in pain as her bones broke. "RAAAGGGGHHHHH!!!"

Zara ran in to help, but the corrupted Zork’s free hand was ready. The corrupted Zork grabbed Zara out of the air while she was jumping and squeezed her tightly.

The Demon General screamed as her ribs broke and her swords fell from her limp hands. "ARRRGGGHHHHHH!!!"

Liora tried to stop it with holy barriers, but the creature had learned from that as well. Its corrupting energy just took in her divine magic, strengthening it with each spell she cast.

They start to lose the battle again.

Despite their collaboration and the combined might of three Major Powers, the corrupted Zork proved to be overwhelming. Its ability to shift tactics rapidly, coupled with its immense power, rendered it nearly impossible to defeat due to the pervasive corruption.

Sylvia fought against the heavy foot, but her dragon fire got weaker with each failed attempt to get away. Zara was limp in the creature’s grip, barely aware of what was going on because of the pain and blood loss.

Liora was running out of divine energy, and each time she cast a spell, it worked less well.

The demon army’s cheers had turned into terrified silence. They were watching their last chance fall apart.

The corrupted Zork lifted Zara higher and opened its mouth to let out a corruption beam that would kill her.

Sylvia couldn’t get up to help.

Liora didn’t have enough power left to stop it.

This was it.

Then Carmilla’s voice broke through the despair, screaming across the battlefield with a desperate hope.

"RICK! PLEASE...! WAKE UUUUPPPP!!!"

"THEY NEED YOU!"

Rick, on the other hand, lay still, his broken body not moving.

The corruption beam started to charge, and purple energy started to build up in the creature’s throat.

Five seconds until it shot.

Four.

Three.

Sylvia couldn’t bear to watch Zara die, so she closed her eyes. Liora fell to her knees, crying as her divine power finally gave out.

Two seconds.

One.

...

The darkness... Not the darkness... of death, but something else... and something more.

Rick’s mind floated in an endless void, separate from his body. He couldn’t see, hear, or feel anything. Just total, complete darkness.

There was no light.

No noise.

No feeling.

Nothing but the void.

And in that empty space, something began to move.
