Chapter 16 - Duo Beauties

"Sheesh, Lilith—cut it out. There's our target," Zeyna said, her eyes narrowing as she pointed ahead.

Lilith blinked, pointing dramatically. "Sheesh… that's a giant rabbit!"

Zeyna squinted at the towering creature flexing its bulky arms. "Is that thing… a fighter type?"

System Notification:

Rare Class Monster detected: Champbunny.

Lilith raised a brow. "Bruh. A rare class bunny?"

System Notification:

Empress of "I'll Do It Later" said: "Is that rabbit flexing its muscles?"

Zeyna grimaced, her voice dripping with disgust. "Ugh, that's just... gross."

Lilith grinned, her eyes sparkling with mischief. "Wanna try the one we practiced?"

Zeyna raised an eyebrow, intrigued but still cautious. Lilith nodded eagerly, cracking her knuckles. "Let's see how this goes."

Zeyna's grin turned deadly, her eyes narrowing with a hint of dark amusement. "You watch my back," she said, her voice low and controlled. "Leave the attacking to me."

She cracked her knuckles with a menacing grin, her bloodlust practically radiating from her. Lilith nodded, stepping back, trusting Zeyna's ability to handle the fight.

Lilith's eyes closed, and her lips moved in a rhythmic chant, the words unfamiliar and foreign. The air around her seemed to hum with energy, thickening as she summoned her magic. The words flowed out, each syllable building with power as she chanted the incantation:

"Velorath! Trixis Amelior!"

As she completed the chant, the air around Zeyna shimmered with a faint, golden glow. It was a buff, a surge of strength and power, a temporary increase to Zeyna's abilities. Her muscles seemed to ripple, her senses sharpening as the magic took effect.

Lilith opened her eyes, her voice breaking the stillness. "There. You're ready."

Zeyna took a deep breath, her focus sharpening as she prepared for the strike. Her body coiled with power, and the air around her seemed to crackle with electricity. She raised her right fist, and a surge of energy coursed through her arm, the sound of thunder beginning to crackle with intensity.

The aura around her fist glowed bright, almost blinding in its power, as she clenched it tight. Each crackle echoed like the roar of a storm, and her stance became one of pure readiness.

"Fists of Thunder..." Zeyna muttered under her breath, the power amplifying with every passing second. She was ready for the strike.

Lilith raised her hand, her fingers glowing with divine light as she chanted softly under her breath. A radiant energy gathered, and before anyone could react, a massive fist of light materialized in the air.

With a swift, powerful motion, Lilith thrust her palm forward, sending the giant fist hurtling toward the Champbunny. The punch landed with an earth-shattering impact, sending the massive rabbit flying through the air, its muscles rippling as it crashed against the ground, skidding to a halt several meters away.

Before it could recover, Zeyna stepped forward, a smirk crossing her face as she readied herself.

"System notification: Activating skill Flamefoot Dash."

With a burst of speed, Zeyna's body ignited in a fiery trail, her feet leaving streaks of flame and thunder as she dashed toward the Champbunny. As she reached the beast, her fist was surrounded by crackling fire and thunder, her attack primed and powerful.

Without hesitation, Zeyna unleashed a devastating punch directly into the Champbunny's stomach. The force of the blow caused a shockwave of flames and thunder to ripple through the air, sending the massive rabbit skidding backward with a howl of pain.

Without a moment to hesitate, Zeyna dashed forward again, her body moving with lethal precision. She unleashed a flurry of punches, each one faster and more powerful than the last, striking the Champbunny with unrelenting force.

"System notification: Activating skill Arcane Fury."

Her fists crackled with arcane energy, each punch landing with an explosive force that echoed through the area. The Champbunny struggled to keep its footing, barely able to recover before Zeyna's next punch collided with its body, sending it reeling.

Meanwhile, Lilith was preparing her next attack. Her hands glowed with divine energy, the air around her growing heavy as she chanted in an ancient tongue. The ground trembled beneath her as she summoned the Divine Hammer, her skill materializing as a massive, radiant hammer of light.

While Zeyna continued her barrage, the air around Lilith shimmered with divine power, ready to strike.

Zeyna gritted her teeth, her eyes focused as she powered through the Champbunny's defenses. With each strike, she shouted, the sound of her voice mixing with the crackle of thunder and the boom of her fists connecting.

"Take this!" Zeyna yelled, her voice ringing out as she unleashed a flurry of punches. Her fists collided with the Champbunny's body, faster than the eye could follow. The air crackled with energy as she drove each blow home. Then, with a fierce battle cry, she pulled back and delivered a powerful uppercut, sending the Champbunny's head snapping upward.

She backed away quickly, her muscles coiled, ready for the next strike.

Beside her, Lilith had already materialized the massive Divine Hammer, its glowing light casting a powerful aura around her. She raised the hammer high above her head, focusing her energy on the blow.

"Divine Hammer!" Lilith shouted, bringing the hammer down with a crushing force. The Champbunny, already reeling from Zeyna's assault, had no chance to dodge. The divine hammer pummeled it into the ground, the force of the blow sending shockwaves through the earth.

The Champbunny let out a pained screech, its massive body now lying crumpled beneath the divine assault.

The Champbunny let out a powerful, enraged roar that shook the very air around them. With a burst of speed, it leaped high into the sky, its feet closing tightly as it positioned itself to come down with crushing force. The massive creature descended like a comet, aiming straight at Zeyna.

Zeyna, sensing the impending impact, quickly activated her Mana Barrier. A shimmering, translucent shield formed around her, glowing with the energy of her protection spell, ready to absorb the damage.

Lilith, not missing a beat, stepped forward and chanted a quick incantation. "Divine Blessing!" she called out, her magic infusing Zeyna with a surge of strength. A soft, golden light enveloped Zeyna's body, significantly enhancing her defense and making her feel as though she could withstand anything.

The Champbunny's powerful descent came crashing down toward Zeyna, its fury evident in the sheer force of the impact. But with the Mana Barrier protecting her and the defensive boost from Lilith's buff, Zeyna stood firm, bracing herself for the blow.

With the Champbunny's mighty blow crashing down on Zeyna, the Mana Barrier held strong, the shield shimmering and vibrating under the immense force. Zeyna gritted her teeth, pushing back against the pressure, but the defensive shield did its job, absorbing the impact.

Seeing Zeyna withstand the attack, Lilith stepped forward, her eyes focused with deadly intent. She raised her hands to the sky, chanting in a language older than time itself. Her voice resonated with divine power, the air around her crackling with energy.

"Wrath of the Divine!" Lilith shouted, and in an instant, a blinding beam of light descended from the heavens. It erupted from her palms in a focused column, shooting down with unstoppable force, pressing down on the Champbunny. The brilliant light slammed into the creature with such intensity that the ground beneath it shook, and the Champbunny was forced into the earth, its body unable to withstand the divine onslaught.

The divine energy flooded the monster, pressing it deeper into the ground as its roar was drowned out by the powerful blast. The Champbunny trembled, its body writhing under the force of the attack, trying to escape, but Lilith's wrath was too overwhelming.

"Nice job, Lilith," Zeyna said with a grin, her eyes still sparkling from the fight. "I'll put in a good word for you on Jeo soon."

Lilith's face turned a deep shade of red at the unexpected praise. "W-What?" she stammered, looking away to hide her blush. "A good word for me?"

Zeyna chuckled, nudging her lightly. "Yeah, don't get all shy now. You did good. You'll get some credit for it later."

Lilith's embarrassment only grew as she tried to brush it off, but the compliment had clearly made her flustered.

Without a moment's hesitation, Zeyna leaped from the sky, her body poised with incredible precision. "We have the same move," she said with a smirk, "but it's different when I do it. You know why?"

She raised one of her legs up high, flexing it with a mischievous grin. "Because I'm built different," she added with confidence, her muscular legs tense and crackling with power.

Then, without warning, she fell from the sky, delivering a devastating kick downward onto the defenseless Champbunny's body. The impact was like a thunderstrike, sending shockwaves through the air as the ground beneath them seemed to tremble.

Zeyna looked down at the Champbunny, her grin widening. "I have nice legs, right?" she teased, her muscles tensing as she prepared for the attack. With a powerful motion, she kicked the Champbunny, sending it flying back, and followed up with a flurry of swift, precise kicks. "You're no champ... you're a chump."

Lilith, watching Zeyna with a sly grin, teased, "Hmm... nice legs, huh? Why don't you show them off to Seo Joon? I bet they'd look great on his head." She chuckled, her eyes gleaming with mischief as she nudged Zeyna playfully.

Zeyna stopped her relentless assault on the now-defenseless Champbunny, turning to face Lilith. Her face flushed bright red, and she shouted, "W-Whaaat?! That's not funny!" Her muscles tensed in embarrassment, but her eyes sparkled with a mix of frustration and humor. "I don't need that kind of teasing right now!"

System Notification:

Empress of "I'll Do It Later" said: "Do it, maybe he'll like it with those legs of yours."

Zeyna froze mid-stance, the blood rushing to her face as the system's message echoed in her mind. Her embarrassment intensified, and she shot a fiery glare toward the sky. "Seriously?!" she groaned, her cheeks burning as she tried to regain her composure.

Lilith, not missing the opportunity, smirked teasingly. "Looks like someone's got a fan," she teased, clearly enjoying the reaction.

As Zeyna caught her breath, the air around her suddenly seemed to pause, before another system notification flashed before her eyes:

System Notification:

Rare Monster Champbunny defeated. Reward: 800 gold, Epic-grade Dragon Qi Outfit.

Zeyna raised an eyebrow, glancing at Lilith. "Well, that's a nice little surprise," she muttered, a smirk tugging at the corner of her lips. "Guess I've earned some pretty nice gear."

Lilith blinked at the notification, then gave Zeyna a playful shove. "Don't get too excited. It's not every day you get an epic item for flattening a giant bunny."

Zeyna smirked as she saw the Epic-grade Dragon Qi Outfit materialize in her hands. She slipped into it with ease, the fabric hugging her body like a second skin. As she adjusted it, the suit molded perfectly around her, accentuating every curve and muscle, especially her toned legs. With a deliberate movement, she lifted the hem of the outfit, revealing her long, powerful legs.

"Not bad," she said, her voice low and teasing as she struck a confident pose, letting the outfit show off her figure to full effect. Her eyes sparkled as she glanced at Lilith, who was momentarily caught off guard by the transformation. "Looks good on me, don't you think?"

Lilith blinked, her cheeks tinged with red, and she quickly looked away. "I—uh… yeah, you definitely look good."

Zeyna gave a playful wink, feeling the outfit shift with every move, as if it were made for her to command. "Guess this is how champions dress."

System Notification:

Equipped: Dragon Qi Battle Suit

Passive Skill Unlocked: Empress's Stride

— Increases movement speed by 30%

— Leg-based attacks deal 50% more damage

— Charisma doubled when wearing revealing attire

Zeyna let out a low whistle. "Heh… just looking at the passive skill makes me feel like a damn goddess."

She ran her hand down her thigh slowly, the suit shimmering with faint traces of qi. "More damage with these legs and double the charm? That's unfair... for everyone else."

Lilith groaned dramatically. "You're gonna let it get to your head, aren't you?"

Zeyna smirked. "Too late."

Zeyna paused, eyes catching on the last line of the passive effect—"Charm doubled when wearing revealing attire."

A soft heat crept up her cheeks.

Maybe… this'll work on him, she thought, her gaze drifting off for a moment, imagining his face when he saw her in this outfit.

Lilith narrowed her eyes, catching the shift in Zeyna's expression. "You're thinking something weird, aren't you?"

Zeyna coughed, turning away a little too quickly. "Wh-What? No. Just… admiring the stats."

Lilith raised an eyebrow. "Mm-hmm. Sure. Totally not about a certain pretty face, right?"

Zeyna shot her a glare, but the red creeping up her neck said everything.
