Logically speaking, the strength of an Eerie transformation should be somewhat proportional to the original strength of the host…
The stronger you were before, the stronger you become after Eerie transformation…
As one of the top Shadowhunter Order members, Clorinde was Fontaine's most formidable duelist.
In all of Fontaine, there were only a handful of people who could rival her…
Meanwhile, Chervreuse, as the captain of the Fontaine Special Patrol, was responsible for dealing with the most dangerous criminals.
Though she was strong, she was still young and hadn't accumulated as much experience as Clorinde…
Under normal circumstances, Chervreuse shouldn't have been a match for Clorinde, and that should have remained true even after her Eerie transformation…
Yet in reality, "Clorinde" was being completely overwhelmed by "Chervreuse"…
Could it be that the intensity of negative emotions also influences the power of an Eerie transformation?
It made sense.
Chervreuse herself had mentioned before that after Furina's death, the malice exuded by the Eerie-transformed Neuvillette was a hundred times stronger than when he tormented her.
His strength must have also increased significantly…
Wait, hold on!
Where did that memory come from?
Another nonexistent memory?
Su Yuan scratched his head, feeling a headache coming on.
These sudden images popping into his mind were becoming more and more frequent…
He had a theory—could these be memories of things he had experienced before?
"Neuvillette." Su Yuan turned to Neuvillette and said, "We're going to need your help soon…"
"Clorinde doesn't seem to be a match for Chervreuse right now…"
..............
"May I ask if you are satisfied with my service?"
Aether watched as the face of the "Kirara" beside him began to twist and distort.
Her eye sockets sank deep into her skull, and scarlet, foul-smelling liquid dripped from the corners of her mouth…
"Kirara" had already been taken over by the Eerie!
Paimon was so terrified that she couldn't utter a word, while Tartaglia immediately took on a battle-ready stance.
"Kirara" observed Aether's tense and panicked expression, then slowly spoke: "That look on your face… does it mean you're not satisfied with my service?"
Aether knew that if he said "no," he would die instantly…
"Satisfied! I'm very satisfied! Extremely satisfied!"
"Mm, that's more like it. Thank you for your support!"
Kirara returned to her usual cheerful self and was about to leave.
However, Aether noticed that the package Kirara was carrying on her back was still dripping blood…
"Kirara! What's in that package?" Aether instinctively asked.
"It's a delivery~"
As she spoke, "Kirara" removed the package from her back and opened it for Aether to see…
At that moment, dark clouds gathered in the sky, and rain began to pour down.
Aether, Paimon, and Tartaglia all recoiled in shock—
Inside the package were severed heads, still dripping with fresh blood…
"They gave me bad reviews when they were alive..."
"Kirara" spoke slowly.
"Now that they're gone, their bad reviews naturally disappeared too..."
"Do you have any idea how exhausting it is for me, a cross-border courier, to run around all day, delivering so many packages?"
"I don't expect you to greet me with a smile, but at least don't give me bad reviews..."
"Yes, it was my fault for delaying the delivery, but putting right and wrong aside, do you really think you bear no responsibility at all?"
"Do you know how much my salary gets deducted for just one bad review? Do you know how long it ruins my mood?"
"Why am I working so hard?"
"Just so you can give me a bad review?"
As Aether watched "Kirara" muttering to herself, he felt a cold sweat running down his back…
So this is what the Eerie truly is…
No matter how much Su Yuan had described it, nothing compared to experiencing it firsthand…
"Oh!"
"Kirara" suddenly nodded, as if she had just thought of something...
"The company seems to have a rule that we can't randomly show others what we're delivering..."
"But I accidentally let you see it. What should I do?"
"So, could you all kindly die for me?"
"That way, it's as if no one ever saw anything!"
"Hehe, hahaha, meow~ nyanyanya..."
As "Kirara" spoke, her face once again began to twist and distort, preparing to strike at Aether.
"Danger!"
With Tartaglia's warning, he unleashed his pure water-structured weaponry, wielding dual hydro blades as he dashed toward "Kirara," aiming a heavy strike at her head!
Tartaglia had a keen instinct for strong opponents, and this strange "Kirara" before him made the battle-hungry blood in his veins boil with excitement!
However, despite Tartaglia's fierce assault, "Kirara" showed no intention of dodging.
She simply let the water blades strike her head…
"Tartaglia, be careful! Elemental attacks don't work on her!" Aether shouted, struggling to put some distance between himself and Kirara so he wouldn't interfere with Tartaglia's movements.
"Elemental attacks don't work...?" Tartaglia could clearly feel it too—his strike had landed directly on Kirara's head, yet it had done absolutely nothing…
"You actually dare to attack me…"
"Kirara" spoke with a furious expression.
"You…"
"You're trying to steal my delivery, aren't you!?"
"I will never… forgive such behavior!"
In the next instant, sharp feline claws sprouted from "Kirara's" hands.
With a swift pounce, she lunged straight at Tartaglia!
Tartaglia reacted quickly, but his chest was still slashed open, leaving several deep wounds…
A dreadful premonition filled his mind—if he didn't go all out right now, he would die here.
"Delusion Unleashed…"
"Foul Legacy: The Devouring Deep!"
However, "Kirara" didn't give Tartaglia the chance.
Felines were already incredibly agile creatures, and "Kirara" was originally a yokai to begin with…
Now, with the enhancement of eerie power, her speed had reached an unfathomable level!
With the sickening sound of flesh being torn apart, her claws flashed—before Tartaglia could even complete his transformation, he was shredded into pieces, his body cut into chunks of meat that dropped one by one onto the ground…
"AHHHH!!!!"
Seeing this horrific scene, Paimon screamed, covering her eyes as she hid behind Aether…
Aether, drenched in sweat, stared in absolute terror, his clothes already soaked through…
So this is what Su Yuan meant when he said, "Don't fight the Eerie head-on. Use the Eerie to defeat the Eerie."
"Kirara's" feline claws were still dripping with Tartaglia's fresh blood as she slowly approached Aether…
The next moment, Aether felt a sharp pain in his neck—then, the world began to spin…
His final gaze turned to the sky.
Wasn't it just raining?
Why did the sky suddenly clear up?
Oh… It must have been Su Yuan working together with Neuvillette just now…
But according to Su Yuan, dispersing rain and clouds consumes a tremendous amount of energy.
He can probably only do it once a day…
Now that Neuvillette has returned to normal, who else is left to deal with "Kirara"?
"Lumine… I'm sorry…"
"I broke my promise…"
"I can't… reunite with you… again…"
In his final moments, Aether murmured softly…
