"¡¡!!"

I push it away at once, the distance between its claws and my right arm being very slight.

"That was close..."

Out of reaction, I look down, only to realize that the beast attacking me is the same one that was completely paralyzed like a statue while holding the thread in my right hand.

Apparently the sound of that boy's attack and the cutting of the tension between the two must have alerted her. So she ended up reacting and coming closer to attack me.

Although I must admit that she was too fast because I couldn't even hear her approaching me.

"Impressive..."

I say that, while I'm still aware that the beast is behind me preparing its next attack.

I try to move my head back a bit but I can't manage to see it completely.

"Fushhh."

Then, a sound of someone swimming quickly started to be heard to the point where I could notice that the trigger of that sound is right in front of me.

I started to move my head, until I looked at what it is.

"Damn..."

"It's you..."

I said, that as soon as I saw that the beast standing in front of me is the same one that was fighting Dwight on the bridge before, I can tell by the mark he has near his chest, it's a clear mark from a lightning attack.

It is impressive that she is still alive after all the attacks she has received.

She is also completely regenerated.

Damn...

The beast standing in front of me began to form a pleasant smile on its face as we exchanged glances.

It clearly recognizes me already.

Then, it fully raised its arm upwards and put the fingers of its hand forward for the purpose of generating more strength in them. As well as clearly emphasizing his sharp claws.

"Glugh!"

Seeing that, I swallowed saliva at the nerves of not knowing what to do.

Subsequently, the beast began to lower his arm to attack me, he is using all his strength because it can be seen in his arms fully formed muscles.

The arm comes down at full speed, while I see how its sharp shiny claws begin to get closer and closer to my head.

If I get this attack, I'm going to die being split in two.

I can't move backwards because of the beast standing right behind me.

Also, that beast is covering enough space with its attack that even if I were to move back a little bit. It's going to end up cutting my face just the same.

What can I do at this point?

I don't have much time to think...

I must act fast...

I look down my right arm very precisely at what little armor I have left on the back half of my forearm. Since my own threads ended up breaking all the armor on the front.

Maybe...

Just maybe...

I can stop the attack with what little armor I have left in the area.

I quickly move my right arm overhead to parry that attack with what little armor I have left on it.

Hopefully I can give myself the time....

"CRASH!"

The beast's claws collided with the armor on my forearm. But the strength it has starts to quickly lower my arm.

"¡¡!!"

I try to counterattack with what little strength I have left, but its strength is clearly greater.

I was able to stop its sharp claws, but it's going to end up hitting me anyway.

"Oh no..."

I mutter that, while trying to hold back its abnormal strength, but I only watch as my arm keeps coming down.

"¡¡!!"

"CRACK!"

The light armor of the forearm emitted a cracking sound, while also a small piece of it slipped off.

My eyes widened in shock as I saw how the beast's claws are now closer to touching my open arm wound.

Practically, its claws are now just barely grazing my arm wound.

At this rate...

If I keep losing layers of armor like that, its claws will very possibly cut my arm....

"CRACK!"

Then, another small layer of armor slipped off. So that now the beast's sharp claws already have a small contact with my open wound.

"ARGHH!"

I started to scream the instant I felt a little bit of the beast's claws on my wound.

But I'm still going strong, not reducing the pain I emit in my arm to counterattack the beast's strength.

I can't go on like this...

I must attack...

Think Elizabeth.

Think of something you can do.

I try to give myself encouragement, as I motivate myself to think of something to do to attack the beast in front of me.

"¡¡!!"

I opened my eyes right away as I remembered something on my armor that I completely forgot about.

Underneath my right shoe is a blade made of a very strong material. Which my late husband for me.

He put it there for the possibility of a greater offensive attack. Since my thread magic limits me to many things.

The way to activate that knife. Is for my right foot to come in contact with some structure solid enough.

In that case...

What I can do is use the beast behind me to propel myself.

I hope there is enough distance to be able to lean on it.

"¡¡!!"

I quickly move backwards, while moving my left arm a bit to have a greater range to get closer. So that I can already feel the pressure on my left arm.

"I made it!"

As soon as my feet made contact with the beast behind me, I could feel the blade under my right foot being released.

Instantly, I propelled myself forward to make the attack with the blade on my right foot.

"I hope this will stop you from eating innocent people!"

I said that, while with the blade I cut from the lower part of its stomach, all the way to its mouth.

The cut was deep enough to make him expel his disgusting yellow blood.

But unfortunately I couldn't attack his heart.

The cut caused considerable damage to his mouth in particular, to the point where it will be difficult for him to chew whatever it is...

At least until he regenerated.

"¡¡!!"

The beast, reacted by moving backwards at once. So that it stopped exerting its force on my injured right arm.

During that period, the beast's face changed completely, going from having a total pleasure in believing that it is going to murder me, to a face of wanting blood right away.

Then, I turned my gaze to the beast behind me. The one I had used to propel me to attack.

The beast behind me did not think too much about it. So it reacted by performing another attack on me with its claws, but this time using its whole body to charge on the left side of my body.

"¡¡!!"

It's now or never.

I started to move my left arm to put pressure on the thread. So that I can lengthen it a little. Just like I did with the thread that was on my right arm.

"HAAAAA!"

As I move my right arm to the right side of my body, I started to scream in reaction to the force and anger.

I managed to move it enough, but in the process my left arm turned red just as it happened with my right arm, but without getting to the point of shedding blood.

"¡¡!!"

The beast directly attacked the thread of my left arm, but only managed to cut his arm in 2. Since he did not calculate exactly how he should make the attack.

As its arm was ripped from its body by the density of the thread, a large amount of its disgusting yellow blood spread around the place.

Moreover, the beast's face, for the first time showed surprise at the situation. Since it most likely did not expect that.

Then, the beast that was cut by my knife also reacted to attack, but this time there was something different about its claws. Since there is an intense green color on its claws. As well as giving off an aura of the same hue.

Could it be that it is acid?

In the same way, I must dodge it.

"That's right!"

Since I don't have the thread on my right arm, I can move down for greater mobility.

Realizing that, I quickly descend towards a greater depth in the sea, using the same thread to do so with greater speed.

As I use the thread to dive deeper into the sea, I turn back to look at both beasts.

"¡¡!!"

"RAGHHHHH!"

The beast lets out a sound of pain.

That's when I see how the beast's attack is received by the other beast in the area of the arm that was just cut by the thread.

Hitting exactly in the area of the inner flesh of the arm.

After receiving that attack, the beast made a backward movement instantly, while squeezing the part of the spleen with its other hand.

"Wow..."

I muttered that, as soon as I saw that it is indeed acid what it had in its claws. As the severed arm of the beast began to slowly disintegrate.

"Impressive..."

"Will it be possible for me to kill it?"

I say that, as I watch the process attentively.

The beast automatically, buries its claws into its shoulder.

"RAGHHHHHHH!"

What does it do?

It digs its claws into its shoulder and starts to slowly pull out the remaining part of its arm.

Is it doing what I think it's doing?

"¡¡!!"

Finally, he pulls off the little arm that was still part of him and throws it away, leaving him with only a single arm in good condition.

Looking at the arm he threw, I can notice how it ends up disintegrating until it disappears.

It is unbelievable.

He amputated his own arm to prevent the acid from spreading through his body.

These things are definitely not afraid of anything.
