Raising A Few Wives in a Beast Apocalypse-Chapter 54: Wrath of the Beast Empress!

Sensing their gazes, the beast opened its eyes and in that moment, dread hit everyone in the group. They could feel it, this monster was even stronger than rat king!. Well almost everyone felt dread....

"My house...it smashed my house, mom"

Jade spoke as she stood still, her expression unreadable. Her hair that now covered her face being the reason. Then suddenly, her aura exploded out. Green energy seeping out of her body, accompanied by thick bloodlust targeted at the lizard king. The others were surprised. Before they could react Jade had disappeared. Her speed so fast that not even Muku saw how she moved.

BOOM!

The next moment, they heard a boom sound from the direction of the lizard king. And their shock Jade was already on the mansion roof and had punched the lizard king through the roof and into the mansion. Well, they assumed she punched it, as right now Jade’s body wasn’t visible, all their could see was a dense green energy that screamed primal savagery.

"That’s not mana..." Layla said, eyes wide open as she looked at Jade with both worry and shock. The others also sensed the same and were surprised. Except for Muku, he had long known that it wasn’t mana from the day he used it to blow up a beast’s face. It seems Jade’s mana only fueled her transformation while this unknown energy was for fighting.

Boom!

Another boom was heard and this time, it was a huge earth spike coming out of the mansion aiming at Jade. And of course with her stupidly fast reaction speed and actual speed, the earth spike missed.

Boom Boom Boom Boom!

Four more came, and again, all missed. But they did manage to destroy the mansion. Now Jade was standing of the ruins of the mansion while the lizard king did the same. They were staring at each other unmoving, but if one looked closer they’d surprisingly see a trace of fear in the yellow eyes of the lizard king!.

Then as if on cue, both charged toward each other, but before the lizard king could travel half the distance, Jade was already in front of it and...

Boom!

The lizard king was given another punch and flew back, smashing into the debris. It seemed Jade’s green aura worked like Chloe’s lightning, it coated her hand for an attack.

Bang!

Another earth spike appeared right below Jade and surprisingly only managed to throw her into the sky, unable to penetrate her green aura.

"And she dared say I was cheating!?, what kind of bullishit aura provides both attack and defence?". Muku said looking on as Jade was sent into the sky. None of them interfered yet, as it seemed Jade had the situation under control. And she kind seemed to be going berserk and they’d rather not be punched in the face before they could even react.

Then suddenly, the aura aura around Jade started to disappear. It was going into her mouth!?. It was only then, Jade’s body appeared in front of them again. And they couldn’t help but gasp in shock.

Long green hair that reached her feet. Green cat ears, a long green cat tail. Body no longer covered in even a little bit of fur. Her eyes glowing green. Sharp fangs vaguely visible from her mouth. And despite being unable to tell what, the others felt that something was weird about the current her. Other than the transformation of course.

She looked completely different from her normal cat form that had orange ears, fur and tail. Right now she really looked like she could pass for a real beast, albeit a humanoid one.

Just as the momentum that was pushing her into the sky ended and she was about to start falling down. She finished sucking in her aura and then she started sucking in some air.

"Don’t tell me...". As soon as those words left Muku’s mouth.

"ROOOOOOAR!!!"

A beatly roar escaped from Jade’s mouth, it sounded nothing like the cat she was supposed to be. And accompanying the roar was a green beam of light that flew toward the lizard king at unprecedented speeds. The lizard king quickly hid itself behind five giant earth spikes it created, not wanting to have anything to do with that attack.

"A freaking breath attack!!, so cool!". Muku screamed like a fanboy from the side, losing the respect that all the members of his group had for him in less than five two seconds. Though he couldn’t be blamed, growing up reading novels about dragons and their almighty breath attacks made him wish he had his on, or at least see it in person, and here he was, looking at it, so of course he was excited.

As Muku shouted, the breath attack reached the first earth spike. Which offered less resistance than that of butter to a hot knife, the rest not doing any better. And under the shock of the lizard king, the attack struck it head on.

BOOOOOM!

The beast had been standing horizontally while poking it’s head out from the side of the spikes to look at Jade. So when the beam made contact with it, it struck its mid section from the side and cut it in half, before reaching the ground and exploding out. Leaving a giant hole where the mansion used to be.

[66 kills left.....]

The beast actually counted for twelve kill points!. It was actually stronger than the rat king, and yet Jade soloed it.

"Are we sure her class isn’t a legendary one?". Hope asked jokingly and yet nobody could respond, they were really wondering if that really was the case. This level of distraction really was a bit too much after all.

"If my hunch is correct, she likely realised some of her potential to be able to do this, and quite a large chunk of it as well". Chloe spoke, she felt that this scene was a bit familiar to her own. Though Jade’s was way more exaggerated.

As they spoke Muku quickly grabbed the falling Jade who wasn’t moving and brought her to the rest of the group. As she got closer, her hair was receding back to its prior state of being short. While the rest of her transformation was also coming undone. By the time she was in front of them, she was back to normal, albeit her clothes seemed a bit stretched out. That’s when they realised that her body had actually grown a bit when she transformed, which is why they felt something was weird before when they were looking at her.

"Okay really?, is this going to be a normal occurrence for you girls from now on?". Muku spoke with a wryly smile on his face after noticing that Jade was unconscious. And he couldn’t help but think that she’ll likely take longer to wake up than Chloe did.

Looking at her, Layla, Emily and Hope couldn’t help but clench their fists. They realised that, just like Chloe, Jade was now a lot stronger than them. Especially Jade, as it was obvious she had realised some of her potential. They wondered when they’ll have their chance.

Audrey didn’t think much of it though, she was still working on accepting herself so she could properly use her current power, so realising potential was still a faraway goal for her. Chloe also didn’t think much of it, she had realised that realising potential was not something they could control so was patient with it. She was even happy for Jade as she knew Jade was getting depressed when everyone else seemed to be improving while she didn’t.

...

Two minutes prior the battle, before Jade’s explosion. Seeing her broken down house, Jade couldn’t help but think of what could have happened. Then one thought kept on repeating in her mind.

{What if the beast broke down the house, pulled out her mother from the rubble and consumed her whole?}

The thought made her so angry and sad that it felt like her body was going to explode. Imagining her mother screaming as she was eaten alive. She started feeling an intense pain from inside her chest the....

[80% Beast Queen potential realised....]

With that prompt, she felt energy like none she ever felt before explode out of her body. And then her body felt like it was changing then started to feel lighter and foreign?. Her whole body was covered by a weird energy yet she could clearly see through it, her vision seemed even more clear even.

Before she knew it, she had jumped to the roof and punched the lizard king into the mansion. The the fight between them began, she actually hadn’t gone berserk as the others thought. But at that moment, her focus was solely on killing this beast and nothing else, which she did. Everything she did, was by instinct throughout the whole battle, even the earth shuttering breath attack.

After using the breathe attack, her whole body felt powerless, like there was not the slightest bit of energy left in it. As she fell down, she felt a familiar invisible energy energy wrap around her, stopping her descent to her definite death. Making her feel safe and secure, as soon as she let down her guard though, she lost consciousness. One last thought went through her mind before she fainted, along with a single tear....

{Mom, I’ve avenged you}
