Divine Luck: SSS-Rank Battle Maid Harem

Chapter 382: Difficult Situation



The Great Ugor knew about the anti-underworld energy potions. How could he not? They were one of the critical reasons he had suffered such losses against the students of the Academy. And one of his greatest victories was getting Liam to destroy almost all without getting detected.

But with Liam gone and no time to put a spy close enough to Zach to get rid of his potions, the Great Ugor had been unable to repeat that win.

He had expected the potions to come into play sometime during this fight. He had not, however, expected them to be so potent that not even the thick and powerful underworld energy of the sixth layer shied away from them.

Even if he hadn't embraced his transition into an underworlder, underworld energy still coursed through his body. He wasn't sure how his skin, reinforced to become harder than stone over the centuries, would react to it, but the Great Ugor wasn't someone who would risk something as dangerous as that out of curiosity.

Instead, he would much rather use the potions against the underworlders on the Daughter's side or the Daughter herself. He wouldn't mind losing Jigak, but only if the Daughter took a hit or was also injured.

Jigak was, after all, holding back Mandra and Alzara.

To increase the chances of his success, the Great Ugor wanted as little interference as possible.

And right when he wanted it, an opportunity presented itself.

He flung the Daughter into Alzara and the anti-underworld energy potion right as it was opened. The Daughter couldn't avoid getting underworld energy on her as she and Alzara crashed into the wall, shattering the vial.

The Daughter hissed in pain as the milky white liquid splashed against her skin and soaked the dress, which now clung to her skin like wet paper. The tiny vial contained a lot of potion.

She was absorbed by the painful stinging sensation that counterattacked her to her very nature—her essence. It was a potion meant for the sole purpose of dissolving and scattering underworld energy. She, who was like the incarnation of the Underworld and underworld energy, was naturally extremely susceptible to the potion.

The potion sapped her strength. The Daughter was powerless to even raise her arms, much less stand up or fight back against the Great Ugor who looked at her calmly. It was the first time since their battle began that his eyes weren't filled with disgust.

It was the first time since their battle began that she didn't immediately recover from her injuries.

Like acid burns, the areas where the potion touched her skin bubbled and sizzled.

Alzara groaned in pain. She was not meant to take hits. She was good at injuring, evading, and crafting. Those were her specialties, and she was extremely good at it. In turn, she could not take a hit.

Both her arms were broken, almost pulverized. Her shoulders were dislocated, and half her rib cage was caved in. If not for the extraordinary of a Desert Witch, who could survive the harshest of deserts, Alzara would have been mortally wounded. While she was critically injured, she wasn't on the deathbed just yet.

However, the Daughter was also out of commission while the Great Ugor was as strong as he was at the beginning of the fight.

Yanael could leave Zach's side and join the fight. But she didn't have the strength to go up against a partially unleashed Mandra, and Mandra couldn't quite reach the Daughter's level, and the Daughter couldn't quite reach the Great Ugor's level.

Leaving Zach, whom she had already exposed as their weakness, would do no one any good.

Alzara not being mortally wounded, despite the severity of her injuries, didn't mean much when the fight was nearing its end, and it was not in their favor.

Still, she wouldn't give up that easily.

Mandra floated in front of the Great Ugor, preventing him from getting any closer to Alzara and the Daughter.

Alzara grabbed one of her daggers that had ended up close to her head during the crash with her mouth. She stood up on unsteady legs. In doing so, she ended up rolling the powerless Daughter into the moat of liquid underworld energy.

It wasn't a deep moat, considering Jigak had waded through it and it reached his knees.

But Jigak was tall, and the Daughter was small. She fully disappeared into the dark underworld energy, which started bubbling and boiling due to the remaining anti-underworld energy potion on her skin. It was an angry collision between the purest form of underworld energy and its antitheses. A fierce battle raged between the underworld energy and the potion, and the battlefield was the Daughter's body.

The Great Ugor was worried when he saw the Daughter slip into the moat. With the underworld energy there, she might be able to recover. But then, the moat started hissing and spitting steaming underworld energy.

If those were the aftereffects that reached the surface, wouldn't what was happening to the Daughter's body be even worse?

The Great Ugor wasn't a gambling man, but he had to take care of Mandra and Alzara before he could do anything else, anyway, so he let the Daughter suffer as he turned his gaze to the blue-haired Archon.

He didn't know what he was facing right now. His centuries in the ground had deprived him of the access to much knowledge. But he knew Mandra wasn't a human. He was curious about what she was, but not enough to strike up a conversation.

He took a step forward.

Whatever she was, she wasn't an underworlder. She would die if she was killed. That was all he needed to know.

With an expressionless face, he bore down on the floating Mandra with a fist heavier than a mountain. Mandra didn't even try blocking it with her magic armor. She knew it wouldn't last a second.

Instead, she slid backward. The Great Ugor followed her with ease. Mandra transformed her magic armor into bands of magic and wrapped them around the Great Ugor's outstretched arm. She barely slowed him down. She had no hope of stopping or trapping him with just that much.

But she could flood the bands with lightning and pour electric magic straight into the Great Ugor's body.

She had noticed his reaction slow down before when she hit him with lightning bolts. She didn't know if he was weak to it or if she was just good at it, but he had reacted to it. That meant she could use it to slow him down until she came up with a solution.

Her eyes glowed and scanned the Great Ugor and their surroundings.

It was certainly a difficult situation.
