Chapter 1117: My Girls
"My name is Three. And you are not worthy of Monkeh's time at all."
"I do not even know who Monkeh is, Three."
"Exactly, because you have no right to know who she is!"
Three was almost three times as big as Riley, and her hand could fully fit Riley's entire head — and she proved that by just suddenly grabbing Riley's head and then slamming him into the ground several times without even allowing him to get another word in.
She slammed him to the point that the ground cracked and created a small crater, and once she was seemingly satisfied, she threw him up in the air. She then flapped her wings, creating violent skirts of wind to form around her as she quickly chased Riley in the air before swinging her staff straight down his spine.
This time, several thunders exploded in the air as Riley just dropped back down like a ragdoll — but Three did not let him hit the ground at all as she descended faster than him and waited for him on the ground… before swinging her staff like a bat and hitting Riley right on the head.
"Woo!" Three did the same gesture that Nine did, using her hand as a visor to look at Riley in the distance — unlike Nine, however, her eyes squinted when she realized that Riley was not flying in the distance at all… but was right beside her, also looking to where she was looking,
"So…" Three did not act surprised at all as she just took a step back away from Riley, "...There was a reason why Nine lost to you."
"Yes," Riley just casually nodded, "It is because she was weaker than me, Three."
"Well… I guess that's all the reason I need to hear," Three smirked, slightly showing her fangs at Riley, "...But don't ever mistake me to be the same as her!"
Three spread her wings before just suddenly disappearing from her spot — causing the ground to just explode as she reappeared behind Riley.
"Hm," Riley turned around, but Three just completely disappeared again and appeared behind him — and this time, she did not wait for Riley to turn around at all as she slammed her staff straight down his head.
"Wh—!?" Three, however, could not help but widen her eyes as her staff just went through Riley; only hitting his afterimage. This time, it was her time to turn around as she felt someone tapping her on the shoulder — but as soon as she did so, however, Riley slapped him straight on the cheek.
"!!!" It was just a casual slap, but Three found herself violently rolling on the floor before she was able to collect herself by spreading her wings.
"Truthfully…" Riley let out a small sigh while shaking his head, "...I thought that I did not change at all throughout the years, but now that I am fighting you, Three — I feel like I truly have. Years ago, I would not even be hesitating to do what I am doing to you…
…but now I feel like I am bullying you, Three. It feels… wrong. And—"
"You dare look down on me!?" And before Riley could finish his monologue, Three just once again appeared behind him — this time, wrapping both his arms and his legs around him as she flew up into the air,
"No one looks down on me, White Face!"
Numerous thunders once again clapped in the air as Three flew into the air with Riley — but this time, as soon as she reached where the gravity of the First Island no longer reached, she quickly flew back down with all of her strength — to the point that their silhouette almost blurred.
"And I will prove to you why!" Three then let out a scream as she started spinning while flailing Riley in the air, "I will paint this planet with your flesh!"
And with those words, Three threw Riley straight down into the ground — or so she thought.
All of a sudden, she found herself to be the one being dragged down to the ground. She was sure she let go of Riley, and she did. Unfortunately for her, she did not realize that Riley was also grabbing onto her — and without even having the time to process it…
…Riley slammed her down into the ground with the very same force she created.
"Grah!" Three felt all of her bones cracking as she bounced from the ground — the impact, strong enough to cause the nearby establishments to feel the violent quake. And unfortunately for her, very much like Nine, she let go of her staff.
"That is not yours!" Three gritted her teeth as she saw Riley snatching the staff away from her, "W—"
But before she could even say anything, Riley just suddenly stabbed the staff into her — this time, he started on the lower holes; which one, well, only Three would really know.
"Stop… stop thi—Grah!"
Riley continued to push the staff into her, and when it was halfway in, he suddenly slammed Three into the ground like she was the head of a hammer. And then, without even any hesitation, he just ripped off her wings. And when he was done doing so, he continued to stab the staff deeper into her — this time, however, Riley made a mistake and the staff just poked through her shoulder instead.
"Oh…" Riley blinked a couple of times as he saw that. And almost as if Three was just a marshmallow, Riley pulled out the staff only to put it in deeper to adjust it so that it would come out of her mouth — or at least it should have.
Like Nine, Three just disappeared along with her staff; turning into a cloud of dust before flying away.
"Hm…" Riley seemed disappointed at this, however, as he truly wanted to turn her into a flag — he was going to stab her wings through her head.
"Is it over, then?" Riley then looked around to wait for another one to arrive. But after a few seconds of looking around, no one was making herself known again, "...I suppose that is that."
The only thing Riley could really do was let out a small but very deep sigh as he started walking back to the tavern. But before he could do so, however, the plaza was suddenly covered in several shadows of silhouettes.
"Oh?" Riley blinked a couple of times before looking at the roof of all the establishments surrounding the plaza, only to see more than a dozen Threes and Nines standing on top of the roof — all of them just glaring at Riley.
"Well," Riley breathed out as he returned to the center of the plaza, "This should be more fun than the last time. Let's—"
"Attack them!"
And before Riley could actually do anything, several people just started appearing behind the monkeys and started attacking and fighting with him.
"Kill them! Kill all of Monkeh's subordinates! This is our chance!"
"For Garboza!"
"..." Riley could really only blink a couple of times again as the monkeys just started fighting with the men that randomly arrived on the roof. But although they completely outnumbered the monkeys, their number was slowly starting to dwindle…
…but more and more of them arrive, climbing up to the roof.
But very soon, however, all the monkeys just disappeared at the same time, turning into clouds of dust before flying away—no.
This time, the clouds of dust all flew right in front of Riley — merging together before creating a silhouette of a human—no.
It wasn't exactly a human, it was still a monkey — but her face now completely almost resembled that of a female human, one might even say she was beautiful.
She wasn't exactly taller than Riley, but the way she stood with her staff by her side almost made it seem like so — and unlike Nine and Three, there was a certain grace in the way she moved as she very slowly approached Riley, only stopping as she was 3 meters away from him.
She still had fur all over her body, but her left arm, however, was completely devoid of any fur — and unlike Nine and Three, she was not really wearing any heavy armor, she was only wearing a gi that was similar to what Riley was wearing.
Her gi was loose, however, and her torso was just wrapped in cloth and bandages.
"Is that… Is that Monkeh!?"
And as soon as she showed herself, the people who were on the roof just started pointing and shouting at her.
"So…" Monkeh, however, did not heed them any mind at all as she just looked at Riley from head to toe, "...you're the one who has been killing all of my girls, hm?"
"Just two of them, Monkeh," Riley tilted his head to the side, "Were they your clones?"
"No," Monkeh just glared at Riley, "As I said, they were my girls."
"It's… it's her! Someone report to Garboza…
…Monkeh has shown herself!"
