Dungeon Builders Harem Book 02 Ch 32

Chapter Thirty-Two

The water seized Ziamili. A mighty fist of liquid fury that ripped him off my sister. He tumbled through the liquid, held in its crushing grip. I marched on him, glaring at him as Garnet coughed and whimpered on the ground, rubbing her throat.

She stared at me, flashing me such a look of joy.

The tails of my robe swirled about my feet as I advanced, watching Ziamili thrash in the water. It squeezed about him, bringing him closer and closer to death. He twisted in it and kicked with his legs hard.

So hard he burst out of the spell.

I gasped as he hit the ground before the water, dripping wet. Shock struck me. How had he escaped the spell's power? Just how strong was he?

Before I could react, his head shot up.

"From the ground below, let the spikes of Lord Abzu erupt!"

A spike of rock shot at me.

* \ * / *

Coughing, Garnet sat up only to see her big brother throw himself to the ground. A spike of rock flew over his head. That big meanie Ziamili had cast it. The armored bastard was gaining his feet. She had to help her big brother.

Wings flapping, Garnet launched her slender frame at Ziamili. His fist flew out and stuck her in the chest. She gasped, thrown back hard into the ground. She hit there, coughing again. Her entire body ached.

She wanted to curl up in a ball. Fighting wasn't fun. It wasn't like in Anime. But her big brother needed her. She had to find the strength to stand and fight. She loved her big brother. She would never let him down.

* \ * / *

I rolled to my feet and glanced up to see Ziamili's mouth opening.

"Darkness hides and shadows conceal, let—"

A bar of steel shot from Ziamili before I could finish my spell. I threw myself to the ground, hitting on my belly. The bar hurtled over my head and struck the wall behind me with a loud clang. I pushed myself up only to see the bastard before me.

His fist slammed into my face.

* \ * / *

The fairy vanished into motes of light.

Mrs. Zoe Baldwin shuddered. She hated killing. It tore at her motherly heart. She wanted to weep.

The sound of water dripping behind her caught her attention. She turned to see the red cap crawling out of one of the pits that had opened up in the ground to drop them into the water. Mad rage gleamed in the monster girl's eyes.

She charged at Mrs. Baldwin, holding a silvery hammer. The dryad shifted her roots, growing them at the red cap. They lunged for her feet to grab her.

She jumped.

Her hammer swung down and struck the dryad hard.

* \ * / *

Ziamili's fists battered into Leo's face, driving him back to the ground.

"Nooooo!" Garnet shouted in horror. She had to do something to stop Ziamili. But what? Everything she had done didn't hurt him.

I have to infuriate him. What?

Then it hit her. This was a burly man. One who thought himself alpha. A stud. Her powers didn't let her make weapons out of shadows, like Usiku, but sex toys. The whip was just something she could use in some S&M play.

The fact she could attack with it was a bonus.

She conjured something different out of shadows. A big, floppy dildo made of rubber. She threw the sex toy at Ziamili and stuck him in the head as he drew back to batter his fist into her big brother's head again.

The floppy dildo struck Ziamili and wrapped around his head. He snarled and snatched it out of the air. His hands clenched on it.

"Why don't you fuck that up your ass!" Garnet shouted. "I know you're a big butt lover! Bet you have all your orcs peg your—"

"You bear-fucking bitch!" he roared at her, fury brimming in his face.

"Ooh, do you want me to strap one on and peg you?" Garnet asked. "Kweh, heh, heh, is that why you want me to join your harem? I'll make the biggest—"

Emasculated fury bellowed from him.

* \ * / *

My face throbbed. My brain rattled. I had to think. To fight back. He wasn't hitting me but... but...

The world swam around me. I had to... to...

"Life energizes and enervates, let the grace of Lady Ianna empower,"

I muttered.

A sharp focus swept over me. I gasped as my vision cleared. Ziamili was looking over at Garnet. She had stood up and created a strap-on dildo. She was stroking the shadowy sex toy thrusting from her crotch. I had my spear still in my right hand, but it was too long to be used easily with how close I was to him.

"Yeah, this is what I'll peg your ass with!" Garnet taunted. "You'll just love it."

"Sizzling touch, the spark of pain, let the prowess of Lord Enlil stun!"

I shouted and thrust my left hand, crackling with electricity, up to touch him.

He battered my hand away and glared down at me.

"From the ground below, let the spikes of Lord Abzu erupt!"

The spike of rock appeared between us and slammed into my guts before I could react. I screamed as the pain ripped through my organs and pinned me to the ground. My entire body thrashed. Garnet screamed in horror.

Ziamili smiled. "I will enjoy fucking your succubus when she is mine."

"NEVER!" I howled as the agony twisted through me.

The rock spike vanished, leaving a gaping hole in my guts.

* \ * / *

Mrs. Zoe Baldwin hit the ground, her chest aching. Her ribs creaked. She'd heard wood snap. Breathing hurt. The red cap raised the hammer to finish off the dryad.

She rolled to the side at the last moment. The hammer hit the ground with a loud thud.

Mrs. Baldwin looked around for anyone to help her only to see Havas, the satyr, getting gored by a unicorn. The poor, busty monster girl screamed in pain before she vanished in motes of light. Mrs. Baldwin was on her own.

She struggled to stand, getting her feet beneath her.

The red cap struck her knee. Her leg folded out from beneath her.

* \ * / *

"NOOOOOO!"

Pain, fury, and terror seized Garnet. This time, when she flung herself at Ziamili, she didn't go to blind him, she grabbed him from behind and seized his neck. She dug her fingers into his throat, squeezing down on his trachea, crushing him.

Her big brother couldn't die. Not her Leo. She was his. HIS! She would never serve this terrible monster who'd sent monster girls to kill villagers and petrify Halia. Who attacked their home and murdered the man she loved.

"Cunt!" Ziamili barked, forcing the expletive past her choking fingers.

His elbow struck her in the face.

Pain exploded. Her head snapped back and her wings flapped. Her tail swished. Hot blood poured into her eyes, her brow cut. She didn't care. She kept squeezing and squeezing. She choked the life from him.

"Graven wounds pulse in pain..."

groaned Leo,

"let the healing of Lord Dumazid flow."

As he cast his healing spell, Ziamili did another back slam. He drove Garnet to the ground, his body crushing her. The backplate of his armor smacked into her tits. Pain burst from her nubs. Her battered body struggled to hold on to his throat. He lifted himself and slammed her into the ground again.

And again.

On the third one, her hands sprang from his neck. She whimpered, the pain burning through her entire body. Tears spilled from her eyes. She wanted to be stronger. Ziamili rose. But she hurt too much to get up and help.

"BIG BROTHER!"

* \ * / *

I rose to my feet, the massive hole in my gut, punched through my armor, mended. Blood stained my flesh. Ziamili rose, leaving my little sister sobbing my name as she lay on the ground, her body twitching. He had hurt her. Abused her.

I stabbed my spear at him, thrusting the crackling point of electrified steel at the armored Ziamili. He deflected my thrust with his bracer-clad wrists while chanting,

"Hard as rocks, let the fist of Lord Abzu punch!"

A ball of stone punched at me. I darted to the right, the spell hissing past me. I lunged in again with my weapon before I could get another spell off. Ziamili twisted out of the way and grabbed my spear's haft.

He yanked it out of my grip and swung it at my legs in a blur of motion. I tried to move, but he struck me. He swept my legs out from beneath me. I crashed down on my back as he moved over me, this big grin on his face.

He was stronger. Faster. Had better reflexes than me. I had to do something to change that. I had to use...

"Within the soul slumbers, let the primal passion of Lady Ianna transform!"

* \ * / *

Pain burst through Mrs. Zoe Baldwin's leg. The red cap stood over her, raising her hammer to finish the dryad off. She groaned, her ribs creaking. She just wanted to give up, but the murderous monster girl's lust-maddened eyes offended Mrs. Baldwin.

The desire to hurt and kill was sickening. The red cap was everything that Mrs. Baldwin wasn't. Not a nurturer. Not a woman who soothed and brought joy, but one who spread suffering. Pain. Agony. Abuse.

Roots struck the red cap's legs. Mrs. Baldwin grew them up the red cap's calves and thighs, but it wasn't fast enough. The red cap raised her hammer, a blood-curdling smile on the monster girl's beautiful features.

"YEEESSSS!" she screamed and swung.

"Mother Baldwin!"

Hooves clopped. Then Ullo, one of the busty satyrs, rammed her horns into the side of the red cap, goring the monster girl. Blood spurted from the wounds. The red cap threw back her head, her fiery hair swinging from beneath her red hat.

"BITCH!" she snarled as Ullo wrenched her goat-like horns out of the red cap's side.

"You don't get to hurt Mother Baldwin!" baaed Ullo with such passion in her voice.

The red cap swung her hammer and struck Ullo in the head. The blow threw the satyr to the ground with a bone-sickening crunch. Mrs. Baldwin's heart broke for the pain the monster girl suffered on her behalf.

"You fucking cunt!" roared from the motherly dryad's lips as Ullo's body vanished into motes.

The vines had grown past the red cap's waists and around her large breasts. They climbed higher and higher until they wrapped around the monster girl's throat and over her arms. She pinned the red cap's limbs to her side. She held the bitch immobilized in a prison of roots as she choked the life out of her.

This time, there was none of the horrors Mrs. Baldwin felt at killing the fairy. She glared such hatred at the red cap thrashing in her tendrils. They squeezed tighter and tighter. She shoved them into her mouth. They squeezed about her throat, garroting the bitch.

Mrs. Baldwin took so much satisfaction in killing the red cap.

Footsteps padded by her. She sat up and looked for the sound. She saw nothing there. But... a man breathed. She couldn't see them, but there was someone feet away from the dryad. And if it was a man, it had to be Led.

* \ * / *

I became a massive bear. I roared as black fur sprouted across my body. I swelled larger. Grew stronger. Snarling, I surged up and wrapped Ziamili into the eponymous bear hug. His breastplate crushed into my chest.

I squeezed.

Metal crumpled beneath my enhanced strength.

"Yes!" growled Ziamili. His brawny arms went around my body. He crushed me back. "Let us see who is the stronger! I am Russian! We crush bears like you before breakfast! Then we go fuck your succubi!"

I snarled my fury, unable to speak in this form. I squeezed harder. His armor crumpled worse. I crushed him in my embrace. But he growled and tightened his own arms. My ribs creaked. My back arched. He was insanely strong.

Inhumanly so.

"Come on, bear-fucker!" he snarled. "Is that all you got! I will break you with ease! Your spine shall snap like a cheap twig!"

His hands clasped together and dug into my spine. I roared in pain.

* \ * / *

Led is right there? Light magic, right? He must have hidden himself.

The thoughts tumbled through Mrs. Baldwin's mind.

What could she do?

She couldn't let the red cap go. She was still strangling the bitch. But the red cap had a weapon. A hammer. She seized that hammer with her tendrils and wrenched it from the red cap. The monster girl gurgled, dying, her grip loose.

Mrs. Baldwin threw the hammer at the sound of the man's breathing.

It soared through the air and struck something. Led cursed and spun around. He hit the ground hard. Just then, the red cap spasmed and then vanished into motes; a vicious surge of triumph spilled through Mrs. Baldwin. She savored her triumph even as she focused on where Led was.

"He's over here!" Mrs. Baldwin shouted. "Led is over here!"

* \ * / *

Garnet whimpered on the ground. Halia turned to stone. So many of my monster girls had died today.

I wouldn't let this bastard beat me.

Roaring, I tightened my grip. My spine creaked, but his armor deformed. I squeezed the steel into his body. My ribs creaked. Pain burst through one, cracking. I bellowed through the agony and fed it into my crushing limbs.

He grunted. Then he groaned. Pain. I hurt him. I had him. I just had to keep squeezing.

POP!

The sound of his spine breaking resounded in my ears. His body went limp. His arms fell away from me. He gasped and panted. I kept squeezing him, crunching his armor into his body. He spasmed in my arms.

Then I let him go.

He landed broken on the ground. Blood spilled from his lips. He wheezed, his armor crumpled around his body. Blood oozed through gaps in the metal. I had ruptured his flesh. He stared up at me, his eyes pouring into mine.

"Strong... er..." he wheezed and then went still.

An orc wrestling with Nimhe vanished. Power surged through me. I felt the searing on my chests, the Glyphs of Earth and Metal burned into my skin. I turned around, surveying the battlefield. Sviesos stood up at the balcony; my mother was pointing at the space before her shouting something.

"He's here!"

I shed my shapechanged form, flowing back into my human appearance. I spat out,

"Spark of lightning, crackle of electricity, let the wrath of Lord Enlil explode!"

A bolt of lightning sizzled through the air. From Sviesos, a ball of plasma shot down at the spot. Neither of us hit anything. I heard running. Footsteps crossed the room. I stared at it, panting. Led was running.

I staggered, wanting to chase after him, but every bit of me hurt. I was so sore. Almost all my monster girls had died. My body throbbed with agony. I caught a glimpse of the vine trap reaching down to grab something, but then he was gone.

We had won the battle, but that bastard Led had gotten away.
