Vampire Overlord System in the Apocalypse

Chapter 207 - Iris VS Accursed Tree King 2/3



-----

From the distance, Noah inspected the battlefield.

The first of the many Hidden Bosses he had detected already emerged, the Accursed Tree King.

However, he could feel other presences emerging all around the vast battlefield, which had flattened after the strong long-ranged attacks of everyone burned through all the vines making the large walls of the labyrinth.

Noah had faith in his wife's strength, and let her have her fun for the moment, although if something were to go wrong, he had already made some countermeasures.

The Accursed Tree King had unleashed a powerful tower of Soul Flames against Iris and Adamantine, but after seeing how it was completely useless against her blue flames, Iris quickly flew towards his back!

However, he had guessed such a thing already, as he knew that many younglings always liked sneak attacks, especially on his back!

The old tree monster laughed, as he shapeshifted an area of his wooden body, generating a gigantic building-sized spear of black wood which was harder than any ordinary metal, covered in Soul Flames, directing it towards Iris who had already appeared there a millisecond after!

He had in fact predicted that she would move there through his cunning nature and the many tricks the old man knew about!

As the sharp tip of the spear approached Iris, the Accursed Tree King already imagined Iris dying miserably, impaled by such an attack!

But against his expectations, she waved her claws at a faster speed than the spear he threw at her beforehand, even predicting where she would land!

"Soul-Beast Embodiment!"

FLASH!

Iris's entire aura grew enormously big, her gigantic phantom claws extended several meters, and they quickly materialized, catching the spear in time and then crushing it into pieces with several swipes of Iris claws!

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!

CRASH!

The enormous piece of wood fell over the floor, turning into Dropped Items.

Meanwhile, the Accursed Tree King groaned in pain, after all, this was a piece of his very body!

"Unnaggh…! So you can do such a thing! You're indeed faster than this old tree, but can you do this? HAH!"

The Accursed Tree King quickly shapeshifted his entire body, as he twisted it around and opened an enormous snake-like jaw, trying to eat Iris in one single bite!

However, Iris smiled confidently as intercepted the gigantic jaws with her claws, unleashing yet another shower of consecutive swipes, slashing through the wood with ease, and tearing apart a large piece of the Accursed Tree King's body!

CRASH! CRASH! CRASH!

"Fufu, you're quite entertaining… Do you really think such a thing can-"

However, Iris was surprised by something that happened right after she tore apart the large, shapeshifted snake-like jaws of the Accursed Tree Emperor!

All the pieces of wood that flew into the air after she tore them apart began to move in midair, shaping as gigantic and sharp branches, flying towards her to impale her from all around!

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!

Iris was then impaled by countless spears of super-hardened wood!

The Accursed Tree King laughed maliciously, as he smiled devilishly!

"Gahahahaha! Do you really think this old man plays fair?! You really need another thousand of years to even get to my level!" said the Accursed Tree King, as he saw Iris being torn into pieces!

However… something was wrong with this.

Although, because he was delving into his triumphant victory, he didn't realize…

But… Iris was not bleeding.

"Hahaha! And did you think that I was going to play by your script?!" asked Iris, as her pieces of flesh, phantom flesh, made through her Spectral Body Skill began to fall over the Accursed Tree King's body within milliseconds!

Iris's entire body began to expand, freeing herself from the spears of wood as she flew above the Accursed Tree King!

"Nngh…! This is not over- What?!"

The Accursed Tree King had tried to move and confront Iris with a strong punch, but he suddenly realized that.. he had become sluggish!

In fact, he had become way slower than before!

"This is… What?! A curse? But I am… Immune to Curses!"

The Accursed Tree King glanced as the pieces of phantom flesh that fell off Iris "wounds" began to spread over his wooden body, leaving large tattoos all over his bark, which began to slow him down to a greater degree!

He felt like he had become several times heavier than before, he could barely move now!

"Immune to Curses? Perhaps to your world's Curses…" said Iris with a confident smile, although she was smiling through her Soul-Beast form, which resembled a grotesque and formless mass of phantasmal will-o-wisps with a giant jaw filled with sharp teeth that smiled eerily.

"N-Nooo! I won't lose! I have not lost yet, young girl!" roared the Accursed Tree King, as he began to expand his body into large fists, using all of his Mana and directing them towards Iris!

However, Iris smiled even more wickedly, as she generated enormous claws made through the shapeshifting of her soul beast form, turning them into solid mass through the Embodiment Skill, and then confronting his punches with more punches!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Each punch resonated through the battlefield, forming shockwaves all around!

The fight for supremacy continued, as the Accursed Tree King suddenly found a way to surprise Iris once more!

"Heh, you are done for!" he laughed, as he suddenly controlled the several roots he had seeped into the soil beforehand, moving them upwards right below Iris, shaping them as sharp spears and aiming to impale her, while covering the on his Soul Flames to inflict direct damage into her soul!

"Old man, did you think that I would fall for the same trick twice?!" asked Iris, as she shapeshifted her entire body into an enormous, spectral maw, and ate the entire spear of wood alongside the flames with a single bite!

CRUNCH!

"W-WHAT?!"

The Accursed Tree King was surprised, but that shock that Iris caused on him was enough for her to abuse it, flying towards him to finish him off for good!

Flash!

Iris turned into an enormous meteor of blue flames, crushing the surprised Accursed Tree King into the ground, beginning to turn his entire body into ashes as his soul groaned in agony!

"GGGUUUUAAAAAAAAHHHHH…!"

"Die!" roared Iris, as an enormous explosion ensued afterward!

BOOOM!
