Ten different Solstice's attacked the Corrupted Dryad Camellia. Each of them targeted a different part of her body and sliced each one. With each slice, the body of the Corrupted Dryad Camellia did not bleed but it did get cleanly sliced off. The resistance from slashing was not even there as the Corrupted Dryad Camellia did not care if parts of her body were sliced off.
The only part that the Corrupted Dryad Camellia did care about are the two heads that she has. She would use a defensive move or spell to make sure that at least one of her heads will stay intact. This also assured Solstice of a way to defeat the Corrupted Dryad Camellia as she has already shown her real weakness.
The sliced off parts of the Corrupted Dryad Camellia were all gathered by the vines coming out of the mouth of the giant monster pumpkin that is her lower half. Once the vines gathered her sliced parts, the monstrous mouth of the monster pumpkin would then devour them. The devoured parts that were severed are then restored back to their original places. She even restored a bit of her health as a bonus to restoring her severed limbs.
"You will never win, blood sucker!" The Corrupted Dryad Camellia shouted as thorny vines came out of the monstrous mouth on her lower half.
All of these vines attacked the numerous blood maidens that were a copy of Solstice. The Corrupted Dryad Camellia thought that she would win because she managed to destroy all of them, but the blood lake was still present. The real Solstice was once again not in the group of blood maidens that the Corrupted Dryad Camellia destroyed.
Ten more blood maidens appeared and severed multiple body parts of the Corrupted Dryad Camellia. This time, the blood maidens used piercing attacks as they plunged their swords inside of the lower half of the Corrupted Dryad Camellia. The Corrupted Dryad Camellia screamed in pain unlike when parts of her were being cut. It was then Solstice learned that the lower half of the Corrupted Dryad Camellia is where most of her nervous systems were.
The pierced holes of the Corrupted Dryad Camellia actually bled which made Solstice happy. For the first time in battle, she was able to taste blood. The blood of the Corrupted Dryad Camellia dripped towards the blood lake which made it ripple. The Corrupted Dryad Camellia that did not call upon any Foliage Soldier suddenly called all of them to deal with the blood maidens.
"Why can I not escape!?" The Corrupted Dryad Camellia panicked as she should have been able to use the ground beneath her to burrow through and escape.
"Do you wish to know, ugly flower?" A mouth with fangs suddenly manifested on top of the blood lake with the same voice as that of Solstice.
"You! You are the blood lake itself!" The Corrupted Dryad Camellia finally noticed that Solstice was the in fact the blood lake.This explains why she was not part of the blood maidens that attacked Corrupted Dryad Camellia. The swap was actually carried out the moment Solstice managed to summon the blood lake. She becomes one with the blood lake once it has been fully summoned. The body that the Corrupted Dryad Camellia saw earlier was just a decoy that is created via the blood lake itself.
"You are already too late. I have already tasted your blood and marked you. You will never be able to leave this lake unless you kill me." Solstice stated as she made twenty more blood maidens.
"Soldiers! Protect me!" The Corrupted Dryad Camellia shouted but all of the Foliage Soldiers that rushed to her aid were all destroyed by Aisha.
Aisha skillfully dispatched the incoming Foliage Soldiers and made sure that they will not reach a twenty-meter distance from the Corrupted Dryad Camellia. She did it quite skillfully as well as all of her arrows would destroy the Foliage Soldiers while her slashes would cut up their bodies. The combination of the two were incredible given the fact that they have just teamed up.
"Please bleed for me." Solstice stated as a smile with fangs could be seen on the blood lake. All of the blood maidens attacked the Corrupted Dryad Camellia relentlessly. No matter what she did, she could not destroy the entire blood lake because that is her weakness. She has no powerful area of effect skill that can destroy an entire area which is why she is also commanding the foliage soldiers. In the end, the Corrupted Dryad Camellia died to the continuous onslaught of the blood maidens.
"No! My beautiful self cannot die." The Corrupted Dryad Camellia as her health was already on the red.
A beautiful woman with skintight shadow armor rose up from the blood lake. This one was different from all the blood maidens as one could see the intelligence in her eyes. The blood maidens also looked at her with reverie even though they look the same as her. Solstice reached out her hand towards the blood lake and a crimson bladed sword manifested from it. "This is the end, but I do admit that you made me use one of my more powerful skills. I would have used this on your leader but killing you is priority for now." Solstice stated.
"Did you think that I can measure up to the queen? If you think that she is as powerful as me then you are mistaken." The Corrupted Dryad Camellia stated as her pale complexion starts to darken.
"She might be strong, but we have the perfect counter. Let me tell you something." Solstice stated as she whispered something to the Corrupted Dryad Camellia.
"No! My queen! You must..." The Corrupted Dryad Camellia shouted but Solstice already swung her sword towards her. The Corrupted Dryad Camellia suddenly got cut up into multiple pieces and exploded into meat paste or plant paste. The relieved and satisfied look on Solstice made others both allured and terrified of her.
