However, it would be somewhat troublesome to let Xia Die fight the opponent normally.

After all, the opponent's scales were impervious to blades and spears, and its speed was incredibly fast, allowing it to easily dodge the butterfly's touch.

Her ability to take lives with her bare hands is indeed very strong, but if she can't touch the other person, then it's meaningless.

Just like Touma Kamijou, no matter how skilled you are with your hands, you still have to be able to touch the other person.

Every time Xia Die reached out to touch the other, the other would nimbly dodge and retaliate with a fierce attack.

The opponent's elbows and knees were covered in sharp bone spurs; if hit by these things, one would likely be seriously injured in an instant.

"That's all. I admit your ability to kill instantly with a touch is indeed powerful, but apart from that, your body is weak and vulnerable! After you die, I will turn you into a magical beast and use your abilities for our purposes. At that time, the entire Uruk will be filled with stagnant water because of you!"

boom!

Once again, after elbowing Xiaodie back and forcing her to take two steps back, Balshumu grinned, his ferocious fangs gleaming coldly.

It was as if he could tear open Xia Die's chest at any moment.

"If that's all, it's not enough."

However, despite the perilous situation, Xia Die's expression remained unchanged, and she remained completely calm.

Although she was at a disadvantage in the battle, Xia Die was not panicked at all.

"Hmph, I hope you're still this stubborn later, or I'll tear you to shreds!"

Balshumu dismissed Xia Die's nonchalant rebuttal as mere stubbornness and paid it no mind.

No one saw that after each battle between Xia Die and her opponent, a few sparks mixed with dark water would splash onto the opponent's body.

Balshumu paid no attention to the Styx water. In his eyes, the scythe was formed from the Styx water, so it was only natural that it would splash.

In addition, his scales are incredibly strong, so he has no fear of the river water's erosion.

In response, Xia Die simply continued fighting silently, without saying a word.

It wasn't until after a collision that Balshumu felt a stinging sensation in his body, and only then did he realize that something was wrong.

The sharp blade of the sickle cut through the skin, and blood flowed out.

The scales that were originally incredibly tough, even difficult for the butterfly to penetrate, have now become extremely fragile.

"How could this be?"

Licking the blood flowing from his arm, Balshumu's face was grim, and the look in his eyes towards Xia Die was no longer as disdainful as before.

Xia Die was too lazy to answer the question from this being that could only move with its powerful body and had no intelligence.

Yes, the opponent understands that he is not very strong in close combat and his hands are also limited, but that does not mean that he can kill Xia Die by relying on his physical strength.

Although scales are sturdy, they have a drawback as long as they grow on a living organism: the strength of the scales changes depending on the host's physical condition. The Styx Water of the Butterfly has only one effect after contact: it weakens the vitality of the opponent's scales.

Just as an animal's scales or fur become decayed and fragile after it loses its life, the butterfly does the same thing.

That would cause Balshumu's scales to prematurely enter a state of death.

During the battle, Balshumu did not notice that his scales were gradually losing their luster, becoming somewhat pale and rough, until the butterfly's scythe slashed through his opponent's body, at which point he realized it.

"Wow...you're amazing, Miss Xia Die."

In the distance, Ushiwakamaru watched this scene and couldn't help but exclaim with delight.

Originally, it was thought that Xia Die would be at a disadvantage, but even Ushiwakamaru did not expect that the situation would turn around so quickly.

"Damn it... Fine, I'll spare your life this time!"

Feeling the blood flowing through his body, Balshumu's expression shifted between anger and uncertainty, and he immediately wanted to leave.

But it was at that very moment that Anna's figure emerged from the shadows.

"Where to escape!"

The chains rose into the air and wrapped directly around Balshumu's legs.

"Get out of my way!"

After being restrained, Balshumu snorted coldly and forcefully threw Anna's body away.

However, it was in this brief moment of delay that Xia Die walked up to the other party, brandishing her scythe.

"Let it wither away!"

The sound of a sharp blade piercing flesh rang out, and in that instant, a fine head fell to the ground.

At the same time, Xia Die's hand touched the other person's body, completely depriving the other person of life.

"Thanks, Anna. I couldn't have kept him without you."

Once things were settled, Xia Die looked at Anna and said with a smile.

"I just happened to be passing by."

Anna blushed slightly, and looking at the smile on Xia Die's face, she felt something was off.

"Yeah, I understand, I understand. After all, Anna hates humans the most, so she would never come to help me on her own initiative."

Seeing the somewhat stubborn little guy, Xia Die smiled and nodded.

"Shut up! You're so annoying!"

Seeing the somewhat mischievous smile on Xia Die's face, Anna exhaled a loud shout and quickly left the place.

At the same time, Merlin walked up to Xia Die and said, "Miss Xia Die, King Gilgamesh has something to discuss with you."

I'll start with two chapters today. The extra chapter I promised might not be coming today; I'll put it in the next two days QAQ. Writing is so slow during the new book period; I really can't write anymore.

Xia Die (Absolute Demonic Front: Battlefront!): 17: Anna, do you care about me?

"King Gilgamesh, did you call me?"

Led by Merlin, Xia Die once again arrived at Gilgamesh's palace. At this moment, he was sitting on his throne, one hand supporting his cheek, seemingly taking a nap.

However, upon hearing Xia Die's footsteps, he opened his eyes and looked at Xia Die and the others, and Xia Die spoke at the opportune moment.

"What if I call you? If you are of value, I will naturally call you. I have already heard about what happened outside. So, for the next period of time, do not go to the front line. After this defeat, the enemy will definitely use even more ruthless methods to intercept and kill you."

Looking at Xia Die, Gilgamesh nodded and then said.

"But..."

Xia Die frowned, about to say something, when Gilgamesh interrupted her.

"Of course, I will not leave your powerful fighting force unused. I will not prevent you from going to the front line, nor will I let you hide in the city. That is meaningless. Go to Ur and investigate what exactly happened there."

"The city of Ur lost contact a long time ago. Not a single survivor escaped. Even the servants sent by the king disappeared after entering the forest where Ur is located. Therefore, we can only entrust this matter to the powerful Miss Xia Die."

"Siduri said with a smile from the side."

"I see. Leave it to me."

Xia Die nodded and said.

It's a good opportunity to go out and look for information. These days, he has been searching for the whereabouts of the other half of his body while he was in Uruk, but there has been no news at all. He can't find it in Uruk, but maybe he can find information in other places. After all, there is no way to communicate with other gods in Uruk.

The last time I spoke with Ereshkigal was very brief, and I didn't have time to ask her for a lot of information.

Logically speaking, if one were to say where their other half is most likely to be, it would be in the underworld.

As the ruler of the underworld, Ereshkigal might know something.

After accepting the mission, Xia Die left the place.

"Could you wait a moment? I'll be away for a while to go to Ur, and I need to go tell them."

Once outside, Anna suddenly remembered something and said to Xia Die.

"I'm waiting for you."

After saying that, Xia Die watched Anna run to a flower shop in the distance, walk up to an old woman, and say something to her.

Upon hearing that Anna was going on a long trip, the old woman called Anna back, handed her a small cloth bag, and then let her leave.

Although Anna had declined many times, she couldn't resist the old man's insistence and had no choice but to accept in the end.

Of course, although he said he had no choice but to accept it, the smile on his face was still very obvious.

With a faint smile on her face, Anna returned to Xia Die and Merlin's side. Seeing the smile on Anna's face, Xia Die and Merlin also unconsciously showed a maternal smile.

"Ahem, let's go."

Seeing the slightly awkward smiles on their faces, Anna coughed twice and quickly walked forward.

It was only because the hood was covering the back of Anna's neck that Xia Die could see that Anna's earlobes were already turning red.

Of course, while we're saying we're going to set off, we won't be leaving right now. After all, we've just been through a major battle, and Xia Die needs to rest.

Therefore, the group tentatively decided to depart tomorrow morning.

It was nighttime in the living room of Xia Die and Anna's residence. Anna's small cloth bag was on the table, and she was staring at it, lost in thought.

"Aren't you going to open it and take a look?"

Xia Die's voice came from the side.

At this moment, she had just finished bathing and was wearing a pure white gauze dress. The moonlight illuminated the tips of her hair, and she looked like a goddess.

With some damp hair still dripping water, Xia Die smiled and said to Anna as she dried her hair with a towel.

Having been in this world for so long, Xia Die has gotten used to this body. When she first transmigrated, she was a little excited when she saw her body, but after so many days, she has long since become accustomed to it.

"No need to open it, it's cookies. My mother-in-law gave them to me when I was helping out at the flower shop last time. She baked them herself. Maybe she saw that I like them, because she always brings some out for me whenever I go there."

Anna gently shook her head and said.

"Anna, it seems you're fitting in very well."

Seeing the faint smile on Anna's lips, Xia Die spoke gently.

From the first time she met Anna, Xia Die had been concerned about her. At that time, Anna was like a lonely little animal, wary, flustered, and distrustful of everything around her.

At that time, I gained her trust and made her less wary of me, but I couldn't change her long-held beliefs.
