The seemingly soft hands possessed unimaginable strength and effortlessly caught Luina’s invincible


    and unstoppable Sanguis de.


    The strike only left a shallow mark on the surface.


    On the contrary, Luna was struck by themia’s force and sted more than ten steps away, each step


    creating deep craters on the icy surface.


    However, themia did not give Luna a chance to recover. Just as Luna was retreating, themia


    suddenly soared into the air, drawing an astonishing arc like an acrobat, andnded in front of Luna.

    With a single move, she grabbed Luna’s fair and slender neck.


    ng…


    Luna tried to use the Sanguis de to cut off themia’s arm.


    However, themia only smiled faintly. Fast as lightning, her other hand easily knocked the de from


    Luna’s grip, letting it fall to the ground.


    Now, Lunapletely lost her chance to resist.


    “U–Ugh…”


    As themia’s right hand continued to increase its strength, the deadly sensation of suffocation


    overwhelmed Luna, almost drowning her.


    ‘I’m done for… Hubby, I’m sorry…‘


    Those thoughts flickered in Luna’s mind.


    “Hahahaha…”


    Just then, she suddenly realized that at some point, themia gripping her neck tightly had let go and


    burst into heartyughter. She sized Luna up as sheughed.


    In her crystalline eyes was a mix of inexplicable emotions astonishment and admiration.


    “Y–you…” Luna gasped for breath, staring at themia as she asked, “Who are you and what are you


    laughing at?”


    Themia’sughter gradually subsided.


    The light in her eyes became even brighter, making Luna feel ufortable. It was as if the snake–


    woman was a mother–inw looking at her son–inw,


    feeling more satisfied the more she looked.


    Girl. Where did the demon snake’s power in your bodye from?”


    Themia’s voice was pleasant like a chirping bird, sounding like a young girl of thirteen or fourteen. It


    was crisp and gentle, and at the same time, alluring.


    Luna knew that themia’s strength far surpassed her own and that thetter could kill her with a flick


    of her hand, so she lowered her wariness.


    As for the demon snake’s power…


    Luna thought about it and replied truthfully, “When I was on Mount Valdez, I was abducted by a demon


    snake. It spun me into a cocoon and transferred all its demonic power to me.”


    A look of realization appeared in themia’s eyes. She nodded and said, “It’s no wonder I find it


    familiar. The demonic power within you came from a demon snake. We can be considered of the same


    origin.”


    At those words, Luna inexplicably felt a sense of kinship. She looked at the beautiful and strangely


    enchantingmia in front of her and instinctively asked, ” What exactly…”


    However, she could not bring herself to ask what the snake–woman was. It seemed disrespectful.


    “Are you asking about my species?” Themia said candidly, “In essence, I still belong to the human


    race. I only gained my current appearance due to many twists and unexpected events.”


    Human!


    That word instantly eased Luna’s tension. She always had some reservations about facing the


    unknown and bizarre.


    Themia said with aplex gaze, “In simple terms, I was parasitized by a demon snake through a


    special method. Then, a fusion urred, which resulted in me taking the form of a half–human, half–


    snake. People call us the Lamiai n.”


    A n…


    That meant there were more of her!


    Luna felt a wave of shock at themia’s words.
