Cursed Villainess’ Obsession

Jerry stared at the red-haired woman before her with trembling eyes.

It was Raphne. Though Jerry herself was a demon and Raphne a human, at this moment, Raphne looked more like a demon than even Jerry. Her crimson gaze blazed through the air, bearing down on Jerry as if it would swallow her whole. The intensity of that glare forced Jerry to instinctively step back.

'How is she resisting my dream magic…?'

Though Jerry didn’t understand the reason, her magic had no effect on this woman.@@novelbin@@

'...If that's the case.'

Raphne, who had taken down the guardian alongside Ken, was clearly powerful. Jerry had witnessed her leaping over the guardian and defeating it with a single blow. However, with Raphne’s companions still under the spell and asleep, they were now alone in a one-on-one face-off. Even if Raphne was strong, Jerry believed that handling a high-ranking demon like herself wouldn't be so easy.

'Attack before she can react!'

Jerry’s specialty, alongside dream magic, was spatial magic. She could move short distances instantaneously without chanting. Enveloping herself in her familiar magical flow, Jerry’s vision shifted as she appeared behind Raphne in an instant.

'Got her…!'

No matter how skilled someone was, they’d inevitably leave an opening against her teleportation magic. Jerry seized on this momentary vulnerability, casting a spell immediately upon arriving behind Raphne. Pure magical energy gathered at the tip of her staff, a simple yet effective attack spell, enough to buy her time to escape.

But just as she was about to unleash it—

She blinked.
