Femdom Island

"Why aren't you fighting back, Nikol?" Lydia questioned while looking at the battle going in front of him. Zenda also joined her and couldn't understand how or why Nikol is there.

"No way! that medicine didn't work? But Nym promised us that it will work," Lydia didn't have full confidence in Nym's medicine, but she saw the result before departing, so she knew Nikol was paralyzed and the only explanation, they could come up with was the antidote.

"You think our queen gave him that antidote, but why?" Even Zenda had that suspicion because she knew, Tisha was too weak when it comes anything related to Nikol.

They kept observing the fight until they saw something strange.

Before noticing that, they quickly thought about helping Nikol, even if that kills them but they couldn't believe their eyes as a big black spiral of dark liquid formed on Nikol's hand like a sword. It had the same uncomfortableness, just like how they felt when they got exposed to cursed magic.

"What is that? Oh my goddess, What is that?" Lydia knew what that black liquid was by its nature and the feeling it emitted, but she wanted to confirm.

Zenda looked at everything with horror on her face since she thought Nikol got cursed. They kept jumping from tree to tree until they got close enough to notice what was really happening on this battlefield. As soon as they arrived, their eyes went to Eva, who was lying on the floor with blood coming out of her forehead.

Lydia tried to jump and help her but fortunately, Zenda quickly prevented her from doing it.

"Don't, you will get cursed, wait for the chance," She whispered in a tiny voice so Ibalina and Nafina won't notice them.

After observing all that, next their eyes went to Ubela.

"Did Nikol do that? but there's black smoke coming out of her body,"

They couldn't keep talking for too long as Ibalina and Nafina increased the intensity of their attack while grinding their teeth showing how hard it was for them. It was a bizarre sight to see that but, that was enough for them to notice something was wrong.

"Kill, Kill, Kill, Kill," Suddenly Nikol started to shout the same word like he was a time bomb that is about to burst.

Every word he said worried Zenda and Lydia, but they couldn't even keep worrying as Nikol sent the spear he was making, piercing more than twenty dark elves and cursed dolls and killing them on the spot. Even some humans and elves got caught up in this attack and got cursed because the tool was made by a curse.

"..."

"..."

Both parties went silent seeing this impossible scene, including the Alliance side as well as the dark elves' side. Everyone looked in the direction that spear came only to see who they didn't want to see but at the same time felt glad to see Nikol's presence.

"Kill, Kill," Muttering the same word he said before, Nikol looked at Ibalina and Nafina with his bloodshot eyes. He quickly grabbed their arms which were holding his back and twisted them with visible sound giving chills to even those who were observing him.

This wasn't anything strange for the alliance side normally, but right now Nikol didn't stop after twisting their hands to a bizarre shape. He went for anything or anyone near them and did the same thing sometimes punching, sometimes using the dead bodies lying on the floor to break stones without any reason, creating a bloody scene on the battlefield.

For a moment, dark elves, elves, and humans halted their fighting to look at this scene with chills going down their spines, the moment they looked into Nikol's eyes. It was completely lifeless, with no killing intent, no anger. It was almost like he was doing something that he had no idea about.

"Nikol, what are you doing? Nikol," Lydia muttered while Zenda looked at everything with fear in her eyes wondering, what happened to him.

She didn't like this new development at all. The moment she looked at Nikol's emotionless face with no resemblance to his previous kind and lovely face, she knew this wasn't a normal situation.

"Ahhhhhhhhh!" Growling at everyone around him, Nikol charged in the direction where the crowd were observing him. Even girls, who usually knew him, couldn't help but think of running away the moment they saw this charging beast.

Zenda quickly acted before something disastrous happen, as she ordered everyone to retreat back to where Eva and Nym were staying in order to protect themselves. They didn't know how dark elves are going to react to this but, they knew if they stayed on this battlefield any longer, Nikol would be their end.

As soon as she ordered that everyone started to run back, except dark elves and transformation who waited for their own orders. But they didn't have a superior to order them as two of them were writhing on the floor in pain trying to breathe while Ubela was on her death door because of the effect of the curse.

"Lydia, come back to your senses, take these two and run, I will come with others," Zenda shotued at Lydia, who was lost because of this chain of incidents.

Even though touching someone affected with a curse was not an intelligent idea, right now they had no time to think about it, It was either do or die for them.

Coming out of her own stupor, Lydia quickly got down from the tree and grabbed Ubela and Eva. She thought about killing Ibalina and Nafina while she can, but still, they were unapproachable to her even after all that absorption done by Nikol. So she gave up that idea and decided to stick to the original plan which was to rescue Eva and capture Ubela.

"Fucking hell! These two are heavy," Lydia couldn't help but grumble at how weak she felt, after all this.

She felt unbelievably exhausted and powerless after all that fighting with several individuals but still, she had to stay strong and support everyone so that others won't die meaningless deaths.

"Hahaa! how pathetic are we? First, we lied to him and now we are depending on him even though he looks completely different," Hardly walking while grabbing two girls on either side of her, Lydia looked at Nikol one last time before, walking to the camp where Emily and Nym are staying.

She still wondered what happened to Alva and Usha, but she could only pray for their goddess to protect them even after knowing it was useless.

Meanwhile, Zenda couldn't believe what she was seeing. The image in front of her burned into the retina giving her chills down her spine.

Nikol kept shredding all the dark elves on the battlefield including transformations who tried to attack him but not only that, even those who didn't get close to him got caught in this attack giving them no place to hide, the only option they had was running. But even those who tried to run didn't know how to escape from him, as it only took him seconds to bite off their throats.

"The way he's attacking, it looks more like a-" Zenda carefully observed everything happening on the battlefield from far without getting close to them.

"It looks more like a monster or to be exactly like a wolf,"

Nikol's whole body was a mess with blood and even his face and mouth had blood on them giving him a creepy look. Zenda was pretty sure he did drink some of those blood from dark elves but she didn't want to come to a conclusion without seeing things clearly.

Ibalina and Nafina who was able to calm down after a few seconds opened their eyes with tears coming out looking at their hands, which were crooked in a weird direction.

"W-where? Where did that monster go?" Ibalina questioned but the other party didn't even have to answer, as the head of a dead body came flying in their direction.

Nafina felt fear for the second time in her life seeing the scenery in front of her.

"It's a bloodbath!"

"Who's that monster? I thought it was on the side of the elves and humans, but I saw it attacking both parties," Ibalina questioned as they had no idea what just happened.

"If we can use that monster as our puppet, we won't even need this unsuccessful transformation, It will easily kill our enemies," Even though both of them were in pain, Nafina still gave an idea which sounded absolutely impossible.

Ibalina wondered whether she was stupid or oddly intelligent because the first thing that came to her mind when seeing that monster was running.

"Only a selected few can control cursed puppets, I don't think we have someone talented enough to control something like that,"

They didn't have the time to chit-chat for long, soon the crowd started running in their direction hoping to reach the castle, so Ibalina and Nafina had to do the same thing, so they won't get caught up in the crossfire.

"Don't run in our direction, damn it," Seeing Nikol's speed, Nafina knew running away is impossible. So she quickly thought of a plan and pushed everyone except Ibalina in Nikol's direction using a plank on the floor, hoping it would slow down Nikol and it really worked as she saw bloody fireworks before she entered the main camp closing the door before Nikol could reach it.

Ibalina thought of scolding Nafina at first for using their own girls as sacrifices but after realising it was inevitable, she calmed down while looking at the monster named Nikol going berserk in the battle.

Besides, the alliance party and dark elves party, there was another individual, who looked at the incident in front of her with interest and happiness.

"Not enough, just a little more and he will come out and join with my darling son," Mumbling those words, she disappeared into the forest while spreading a cloud of glowy dust showing the shreds of evidence of her presence.
