The Author's POV

Chapter 820

[Pillar of Wrath]

How long had it been since she had gotten stranded over here?

Staring at the massive dunes ahead of her, she smacked her dry lips.

She had lost count.

The desert was scorched by the red sun hanging in the sky, and her feet sank into the sand beneath her.

"Uek!"

Swoosh—!

On occasion, scorpions twice her size would ambush her from beneath the ground, launching themselves at her at high speeds.

Xiu! Xiu!

If not for her fast reactions, she would've found herself in a difficult situation more times than she could count.

Thump! Thump!

As she twisted her body and pulled on her bowstring, the enormous scorpions lifelessly fell in front of her.

'I've lost count of the number of scorpions I've killed so far.'

Amanda pondered while staring at the scorpion's corpse at her feet. It was entirely clad in red armor, which glistened beneath the red sun that hung in the sky.

By her estimates, their power was comparable to that of a Marquis ranked demon, and its large pincer dripped a black liquid that liquefied the sand when it touched it.

Tzzzz. Tzzzz.

Amanda drew a small bottle from her bag and placed it beneath the pincer to collect the liquid that was leaking from it.

'This might be useful for later.'

She had already collected several samples along the way, and she would repeat the procedure each time she killed a scorpion. To her delight, the poison was quite effective against the demons. She had already tested it on multiple demons and was ecstatic with the results.

It was just that… she didn't feel comfortable carrying that much poison with her. Especially since the bottle she would put it in would sizzle at the touch.

Clank—!

Amanda tucked away her flask, which was now half-filled with a black, viscous substance, with a satisfied expression.

While she wasn't comfortable with the idea of carrying that much poison with her, as long as it was in her dimensional space, she felt that it wasn't a big deal.

She just didn't want it to explode on her the moment she took it out.

"Now then…"

She turned her gaze to stare into the distance.

Her delicate brows furrowed, and she pondered over her next location.

She was honestly clueless at the moment.

She was merely just going along on her own whims and was just going around the desert in hopes of finding someone she was familiar with, but that proved to be a harder task than she had anticipated as those that she did meet were either dead or demons.

It was truly a bothersome sight.

She may be used to seeing dead bodies by now, but it was still an uncomfortable sight.

"Hm?"

Immediately thereafter, Amanda's ears perked up, and she stopped abruptly. She wasn't sure at first, but she believed she had felt a muffled explosion sound emanating from her right side.

Booom—!
