Digitize: Rebirth of the Silver Death God

A distance away from the earlier scene, Ivy was now fleeing through the woods. While running, for every mantis that had appeared before her, she fought them in a fierce battle before escaping.

"Poison Whiplash!" Ivy yelled as she waved her slender palms, causing a greenish whip to lash out towards one Crimson Blade Mantis at alarm speeds.

If one looked at it closely, they noticed that this whip was coated with green-colored poison energy, one that was so condensed that a few droplets of green liquid fell from it onto the grassy grounds, eroding anything it touched.

The Crimson Blade Mantis that stood before her had flashing eyes as it shifted its body, dodging most of the attack as it waved its palms clashing against the whip. A series of metallic collision noises and crackling sounds of a whip sounding across the area, as their blurry attacks continued for a short while.

Ivy frowned as she thought, 'This can't continue, or I'll be surrounded in no time; I have to escape somehow.'

As Ivy thought to herself, a little distance away from her position, the furry eared and blue-eyed Lily garbed in her thief garments watched this scene with a look of anger on her face as she complained.

"Darn it! Why are these woods so dangerous? How am I to steal that bastard's items if I can't even maneuver through this land?" Lily cursed with an angry expression on her cute face, her furry ears and tail bounced up and down along with her chest as she hyper-ventilated.

The subordinates sighed as they looked at her, one of them replied, "Young Miss Swift, it's as we've said before, this is the fabled Crimson Mantis Zone, if you aren't at least at the level of a Stage 6 ranker on the Ranking List, then coming here is no different from suicide. You should already understand that there aren't many who can even achieve such levels of core mastery…"

Lily grew angered at those words; she pointed at the subordinate who also had furry like ears behind his hooded robe as she complained, "How dare you lecture me? Just you wait till we get back, humph!"

The subordinates sighed as they knew she only gets like this when she's frustrated, they were about to say something, but right at this time, the battle before them seemed as if it was only a moment away from turning into a desperate situation.

Lily looked at this and spoke, "I'm going to help her out, so come with me!"

The subordinates sighed and replied, "As you wish, ma'am!"

With a swoosh, Lily and her subordinates vanished from this hidden location as they made their way over to help Ivy who was now battling against two Crimson Blade Mantises. Her appearance now sweaty as she struggled to fight them back, lashing her whip about in a furious manner as it left behind invisible blurs due to its speeds.

'Not good, I can't hold on for long!' Ivy thought as she was approaching her limit, as if proving her right, her whip accidentally missed its mark and was repelled by one of the Crimson Blade Mantises. However, as if it was looking for this change, the other mantis quickly charged towards her with its immense speed arriving upon her in only a few sections as it chopped its palms towards her neck.

"Noooo!" Ivy cried out loud, seeing this incoming attack, but it was when the blade was about to connect with her body, she noticed a startling scene.

"Back off!" A tender voice said as Lily appeared at the Crimson Blade Mantis's flank, her arms nimbly danced as she quickly caught the blade-like palms of the mantis and deflected it to the side.

The Crimson Blade Mantis was surprised at this, it wanted to follow up, but as if she expected it, Lily sneered as she twirled her body and kicked its chest. It fell back by around a meter's distance with a bang, but just as it wanted to recover and attack, Lily was already ahead of it as she spoke, "Do it now!"

Without giving a reply, her two subordinates promptly attacked, stabbing both unguarded Crimson Blade Mantises in their vitals at their backs. As the two corpses fell to the ground, both Ivy and Lily heaved a sigh of relief. The subordinates then went ahead to loot the bodies while the two girls stared at each other.

"Hello, my name is Ivy, thank you for saving me," Ivy said with a polite gesture and a warm smile, her face a still a bit tired.

Lily smiled and replied, "Hehe, don't worry about it, us girls have to stick together, these woods are quite dangerous, you see..."

Ivy showed a thoughtful look before asking, "Are you the group that's been following us for a while now?"

Lily was surprised at this; she gave Ivy a deep look as she spoke without hiding anything, "Yes, that's right, I originally only wanted to follow you guys for a while and safely find a way to an enemy of mine. However, I never thought that we'd end up in such a mess."

As Lily said this, her eyes flashed with hatred as she recalled Nero's handsome face, looking as if she would steal everything he owned if she caught up to him.

Ivy looked at Lily with a pondering look as she spoke, "Could this enemy of yours have anything to do with that Silver Boy?"

Lily was once again surprised; she found that Ivy was rather sharp, far different from her brother, she gave her a look and spoke, "Miss Ivy, I have to say that you are far different from your brother. Maybe it's as that fool Mohawk Wannabe said, you should be the one whose human clan's prodigy."

Ivy made a strange smile as she replied, "Hehe, I really don't understand why you're all so hooked about that person. Still, I have no interest in fame or playing the leading role I only want to have fun, there aren't many who enjoy my ideals, but for some reason, I can tell that you're very much like myself, Miss Swift Hands..."

When Lily heard this, her face turned different, she didn't dare to look down on Ivy as her intelligence, and quick wits was more than enough for her to pick up on things far too quickly.

The two girls sized each other up before they smiled and laughed as they spoke again; only this time, their tone was more friendly.

"Hey, why don't we become sisters? I've always wanted to play with a girlfriend!" Ivy asked while looking at Lily.

"Sister? You mean like those who are blood kin?" Lily asked with a puzzled look on her face.

Ivy gave her a look and replied with her slender arm stretched out, "It's more like close friends that are no different from sisters, so... what do you say?"

Lily gave Ivy an in-depth look; she hadn't had close friends in a long time, even more so after what happened to their world, the war that spanned across their entire race.

Lily's eyes turned a bit red as she spoke in a softer tone, "Um, okay... l-let's be friends."

Ivy gave a good look as she hurriedly held her hand with a smile, she didn't know why, but she couldn't help but want to draw close to her for some reason.

The two subordinates gave Lily a look; they both sighed, knowing how her life's been, the very fact that she could make a friend in this world should even be considered a good thing.

The two girls were having a friendly moment, but right at this time, the two lackeys that were about to speak to them, showed frightened looks on their faces as they trembled.

Ivy was the first to notice their look; she couldn't help but ask Lily, "Sister Lily, why are your allies like that?"

"Huh? What do you mean? They should be loot..." Lily made a puzzled look as she turned while speaking, but before she could even finish her words, she halted due to their scared appearance.

"Hey, what are you guys doing?" Lily shouted at them.

The duo seemed to have been awakened from their fears as they spoke, "Ma-Ma-Madame Swift, w-we have to get out of here, right now!"

Both Ivy and Lily were confused, but they noticed that the two were still staring in a particular direction in fear. A bad feeling came over the duo as they looked at each other and gulped before slowly turned to the direction.

There, they saw that a giant shadow in a nearby area, it was a massive figure belonging to a Crimson Blade Mantises of the likes could never imagine. From the appearance of this monster, both Ivy and Lily knew just by one glance, that their luck had finally made its end…
