Raising A Few Wives in a Beast Apocalypse-Chapter 173: Audrey versus Chloe! (Pt 1)

"Are you ready?" Audrey asked Chloe a gentle smile on her face.

"Y...yeah, just a little nervous" Chloe replied. They chose to ignore Muku for the most part. Listening to him would just ruin their concentration.

"Good that you're ready because I'm not holding back. Show me everything you have" Audrey replied as her body was completely encased in a crimson suit.

The same as the one she has fought a troublesome opponent with before. The opponent cannot be named because the author forgot which one it was. Also, has no idea which chapters to search.

Anyway, the moment Audrey's whole body was covered up, leaving only her silver eyes exposed. The air around her changed. Before, Chloe felt like she was being looked at by the most gentle person in the world. Now, she felt like she was being looked at by a hungry apex predator. She felt like a little deer getting eyed by a lioness in the wild.

Pak!

Her whole body screamed danger and she jumped back.

Bang!

Audrey had attacked the very second the coin reached the group. It happened so quickly that Elsa and Freya saw neither Audrey nor Chloe's silhouettes when they moved. It was like they teleported.

The scene froze with Chloe standing three metres away with slight surprise in her eyes. Audrey crouched down in the place Chloe was before. Her hand was sinking into the ground. If the attack had landed, Chloe would have felt a world of pain.

Chloe didn't expect Audrey to be so resolute despite being warned. It was then she realised that if she messed around. She would get beaten up without getting a chance to do anything.

That thought lit a fire in her. The little sparks of lightning around her body intensified. She was finally in the mood for it.

"I guess now we can truly start..." Audrey spoke in a somewhat eery voice through the face mask that had no mouth. It was somewhat like the one Muku created. Only the eyes were present with no other facial features.

Boom!

Crack!

Bang!

Bang!

Whoosh!

Bang!

The two parties started clashing all over the arena. Muku and Jade could see everything clearly. Layla, Emily and Hope could somewhat follow everything. However, Elsa and Freya could only hear loud sounds. That's how fast Audrey and Chloe were.

Even more absurd was how they were still not going all out. The group was already damaged a lot more than it was by the previous battle just from the shockwaves.

"Lightning explosion!" Chloe cast the first advanced spell of the fight.

Lightning exploded out from her body going in every direction. No matter how fast Audrey was. There was no way she could dodge lightning that had almost instantly covered up the whole ring right?

Boom! Bang!

Yes, she really couldn't dodge such an attack. As a result, she was hit by it hard and got thrown into the steel walls of the arena. However, she didn't seem too injured as she got up almost immediately before Chloe could throw her next attack.

While she did seem unfazed by it. The observant eyes of Jade and Muku noticed that little cracks had formed in her armour. They were soon closed up as if they were never there before, but it was still proof of Chloe's successful attack.

"Bloody maw!" Audrey cast her own advantage spell. Some of the blood from her condensed blood from her armour lashed out in the form of a bloody mouth at Chloe. She waited for when they were in close contact since it was a close combat skill.

Chloe's eyes widened. She had never seen Audrey use such an attack before. She couldn't react in time, and she was gulped up by the three-metre-tall mouth, whole.

"You l..."

BOOOM!

Crackle!

Just as Audrey was about to declare the match her win. Chloe broke through out of the maw by blasting it open with her lightning. She had to increase her output to do so. Which was now beyond Audrey's. So it couldn't be said that she escaped due to her strength. She just got more serious than Audrey and broke out.

"I can take it into a higher gear too!

Blood Bath!" Audrey explained. The condensed blood she was using as amour returned to its original form.

An unknown amount of liquid beast blood drenched the whole ring. While it could have gone beyond the arena. It didn't, due to Audrey's control. Otherwise, even the group in the spectator stand would have been implicated.

Everyone was surprised by the appearance of so much blood. After all, Audrey was able to compress into all into a slightly large in size suitcase. It was like seeing a dam of water appear out of a one-meter square cube of ice. Such a thing should be impossible. Yet Audrey was essentially doing exactly that.

"Execution Ground!" Without pausing after casting the first spell. Audrey cast another spell that made the blood stab two metres into the air in the form of solid blood spears.

There was no pattern to it as it happened randomly all over the arena. The only safe places were the ones Chloe was standing on as well as the ones Audrey was standing on.

Chloe knew that she was only safe because Audrey willed it. If Audrey wanted to, she would have bombarded her with an unknown number of spears at once.

"Do you want to continue it or give up?" Audrey's eery voice sounded again. She didn't call it her win because she knew that Chloe still had the power to protect herself from the spears for a while.

Chloe could just lash out and break apart all the blood around her and be safe. The problem, however, was that Audrey could reform the blood that wasn't disintegrated.

So, Chloe would have to keep on fighting it off while doing other things until the battle ended. Which would be more work for her. Her chance of winning would also be reduced by a lot since she'd have to split her attention.

As for using some of her strongest attacks? Well, it was an unspoken rule that if you couldn't ensure the safety of your opponent. You shouldn't use such attacks. Which Chloe or anyone but Emily could ensure in their group.

Also, such attacks took time to prepare. Time which Audrey wouldn't let her have. So the attacks might as well not exist during their in-team duels.

"I want to continue a little more... Let's see if my suit can keep up with yours for a bit", Chloe replied, refusing to give up.

She had never been in such a situation before. Her lightning has pretty much always done the job exactly how she wanted it ever since she got it. So, Audrey putting her in check despite all her efforts was rather new and quite frustrating.

She refused to give up until the very last moment. Even if she had to use her lightning coat. An ability that, in her earlier days, left her naked. While that was no longer a problem, there was another pressing issue to consider.

Which was how quickly it drained her mana. It was understandable considering how it needed to be constantly fed mana to exist. While she didn't mind losing to Audrey, she wanted to know she tried every move she could before that happened. So she dared to put it all on the line.

"Not giving up easily huh?... Okay, show me what you've got then" Audrey replied behind the mask. Her battle aura intensifies.

The way she spoke, Chloe was almost certain that Audrey was smiling behind the mask. Everything about Audrey screamed that she was enjoying herself at that moment.

"Sure" Chloe only said one word in response.

BOOM!

Her aura exploded out to the max and her body was encased in blue. She almost seems like a being completely made out of lightning at that moment. The lightning cracked furiously, blackening the ground around her.

The final showdown was about to start...
