Villainess X Villain: They are obsessed with each other!

Chapter 142 -: 141 Shocking change!

Each hit landed heavier than the last, like someone was hammering a coffin shut for good.

The Love Guardian looked pathetic now. His armor was bent in weird places it was never meant to bend.

Rosalina swung the war hammer again and the big guardian stumbled sideways like a drunk man.

’He’s not going to last another five minutes,’ Crypian thought.

"At this rate, we are going to die. We need to do something right now."

"But how?" she whispered. Her voice cracked with fear.

Her eyes shook with visible terror.

Every time Rosalina smashed the hammer into the guardian’s joints or Julius swung his mace like he wanted to flatten the entire world, Alia felt her stomach twist.

She couldn’t even imagine how strong they really were. It was terrifying.

"When there is a will, there is a way," he said, trying to sound wise.

He stepped closer to her, his voice dropping even lower.

It was the entrance to the 11th floor.

"If we can somehow reach that door, we can escape to the next floor. But we can’t just run."

He paused, then looked straight into her eyes. "First, we will use that spell... the one the Dean taught us."

"Yes," Crypian nodded quickly. He grabbed her hand gently but firmly.

"The Dean’s spell is very secretive. If we use it right, it will give the Love Guardian a real chance to hit them hard."

Her eyebrows pulled together tightly and fresh tears welled up in her eyes.

"They won’t," Crypian interrupted, sounding sure of himself.

He grabbed her shoulders and shook them lightly but firmly to make her focus. "You trust me, right?"

Even in the middle of all this danger, her cheeks turned a little pink.

She didn’t look away from his eyes even for a second.

He pointed carefully toward Julius and Rosalina, who were still busy smashing the Love Guardian.

"O-okay..." Alia nodded.

Crypian gave her one last encouraging nod, but deep down he was already calculating how fast they could run to that door the moment the spell went off.

.....

"Attack his head!" Julius shouted as he threw his chained mace hard at the guardian’s leg.

"Ugh!" The Love Guardian let out a low groan and dropped heavily to his right knee.

"Alrighty!" Rosalina nodded with a big grin.

But at the last second, the guardian twisted his head to the side.

The hammer slammed into the stone floor instead.

The Love Guardian saw his chance.

Out of nowhere, Julius’s mace flew in and smashed into the guardian’s leg.

It was Julius’s mace.

A small, confident smile appeared on his face under the mask.

"Babe!" Julius called out.

She instantly reached out her hand, and sharp spears appeared in her grip.

Spears formed in his hand too as he moved closer to the trapped Love Guardian.

He twisted and pulled with all his strength, trying to free his chained leg. But it was no use.

Julius and Rosalina walked calmly toward him.

The Love Guardian was still holding his huge sword, but one spear went straight through his hand and pinned it to the ground along with the weapon.

Julius pulled his mace back and the chains unwrapped from the guardian’s leg.

"Yeah," Rosalina nodded.

"Let’s see what saves your ’pure love’ once I decorate the floor with your head," she said, clearly enjoying the moment a little too much.

But Julius quickly cut her off, ruining her dramatic villainess moment.

Julius stopped right in front of the guardian’s head and lifted his heavy mace high into the air.

"On the count of three," she said with that same wicked grin.

Her eyes were shining with bright excitement. She looked thrilled, like she was about to unwrap a gift.

The Love Guardian struggled wildly.

"Thre..."

A sharp, burning pain shot through his golden eyes.

The whole world went completely still, no sound, no movement, nothing.

...

"Three!"

"lightbreak!"

A sharp, high-pitched ringing sound exploded inside Julius’s ears.

He had no idea what this strange feeling was.

"Chink!!!"

"Julius..." Rosalina’s weak voice called out softly.

Julius quickly turned his head toward her. The moment he saw her, his face went pale with pure horror.

...

The vision ended suddenly. Julius’s eyes snapped back to reality.

He was breathing hard, huff... "huff... huff..." His chest rose and fell unevenly.

She was still standing there, completely fine.

But it was already too late.

"lightbreak!!!!" the shout rang out again from behind them, clear and sharp.

"Beeeeep!!!!"

This time, Julius didn’t hesitate even for a moment.

In one smooth, fast motion, he reached her, grabbed her body tightly, and threw himself over her to protect her as they started to fall to the ground.

"Chink..."

The blankness faded from Rosalina’s eyes. She slowly looked down.

"No!!!"
