Lust System: Conquering the World Beauties-Chapter 386 Dual And Still Not Enough

Chapter 386

Chapter 386: Chapter 386 Dual And Still Not Enough
The dust finally began to settle.
At first, it was just a shadow standing in the middle of the chaos. Nobody could see clearly. The air was thick, gray, and heavy. People held their breath, eyes locked on the shape in the distance.
Then the haze cleared completely.
It was her.
Lilith stood right where the piller had hit, not a single scratch on her skin. Her expression was calm, almost bored, like she had just finished brushing off some dirt, not surviving a deadly attack.
The crowd went silent. For a few seconds, the world stopped moving. The police, the trapped civilians, even the ers forgot to breathe.
Inside the car, Dickson stared at the live feed with a blank face. He didn’t blink, didn’t smile, didn’t say a word.
Kelly leaned forward a little, elbows on her knees, watching the screen quietly.
Seo Yeon’s lips parted but no words came out.
Ann crossed her arms and said nothing either. None of them looked shocked. None of them looked impressed.
They all knew Lilith. This was normal for her. They couldn’t believe they doubted her minutes ago.
Back at the site, Lilith dusted her hands like she had just finished some minor task. Then she rolled her neck, a small cracking sound breaking through the quiet. She sighed.
"You’re so weak," she said, looking straight at the big man who had attacked her.
Her voice wasn’t loud, but it carried. The cameras caught it. The microphones picked it up. It echoed over the city’s speakers.
The man’s face twisted. His jaw clenched and his nostrils flared. He didn’t take insults well.
"You’ve got some mouth on you," he growled, lifting both his hands again.
This time, the ground didn’t move. Instead, the air itself seemed to freeze. The temperature dropped so fast that people in the crowd started to shiver. Their breaths came out white. A few rubbed their hands together, confused and scared.
Cracks spread across the pavement, and then, with a sharp rumble, tall pillars of ice shot out from the ground. They rose fast, thick, and sharp, like frozen spears reaching for the sky.
Gasps filled the air.
"What the hell is that?"
"Did he just make ice?"
"Is that another one of those powers?"
Even Lilith was a little bit stunned, dual powers? That was new.
ers tried to talk over the noise, but their voices trembled.
Lilith looked around slowly, her golden hair catching the sunlight. Her face didn’t change. She just shook her head.
"I’m not here to entertain you," she said softly.
Then she rose again.
Her feet lifted off the ground, her body floating higher and higher until she was hovering a few meters in the air. The people watching from behind the barricades screamed in shock. Phones tilted upward to capture her. The live feed zoomed in on her glowing eyes.
The temperature dropped even more. Frost started spreading across cars, street signs, and glass windows nearby. The breath of everyone there came out thick and white.
Behind her, small glimmers appeared. One, two, then ten, then dozens. Sharp ice shards formed in midair, each one shaped like a dagger, spinning slowly behind her like a deadly halo.
"She has powers too?" someone shouted.
"Incredible!"
"No wonder she survived that first attack."
The crowd buzzed with noise now. Everyone who had called her stupid a minute ago now stared with open mouths. The tone changed. They no longer saw a crazy woman challenging superpowered men. They saw something else entirely.
"She’s one of them," someone said.
"No... she’s something else."
"Who the hell is this woman?"
Lilith’s expression stayed cold. She stretched her hand out toward the big man, and in that instant, the shards behind her all moved.
They shot forward with a sharp sound that cut the air. The speed was unbelievable. The audience didn’t even get to blink before the first one hit.
The big man smiled like he had been waiting for this moment. He didn’t look worried at all.
"Cute," he muttered under his breath. His thick hands moved slightly, and more ice pillars grew from the ground in front of him, like shields rising up to block the incoming shards.
The crowd leaned forward. Cameras zoomed in.
The first ice shard hit.
Slice.
A clean cut tore through one of the pillars. Then another.
Slice. Slice. Slice. Slice.
Gasps filled the air again. The noise was unreal. The ice shards that looked fragile only a second ago sliced through the man’s massive ice pillars like they were made of paper.
The big man froze, completely caught off guard. For a moment, his brain refused to register what he was seeing.
Then instinct took over.
He stomped his foot hard against the ground. The earth shook beneath him. From the cracked pavement, a thick wall of stone rose up just in time. It caught most of the shards, breaking them apart with heavy cracks and splinters.
The remaining shards that made it through were already weak. He raised his leg and kicked them away one after another, breaking them midair with quick, powerful strikes.
When the dust and fragments cleared again, he was still standing. His chest rose and fell sharply, but his grin had returned.
He looked up at Lilith floating in the air, still calm, still untouchable. He wiped a thin cut off his cheek with his thumb, staring at the blood before licking it away.
"Is that all you’ve got?" he said with a smirk. "That can’t be everything."
The crowd went quiet again, waiting.
Lilith didn’t answer. She just floated there, her golden eyes staring down at him with that same calm, cold expression. The air still shimmered with frost around her, and her hair drifted slightly in the chill breeze.
For a second, nobody moved. It felt like the whole city was holding its breath again.
Lilith smiled, a slow, dangerous smile that made the man’s confidence waver for the first time.
"You think that’s all I have?" she said quietly, her voice cutting through the cold air.
Her eyes glowed brighter, and the air around her began to hum. Frost spread outward in a wide circle, coating the ground, the broken road, and even the man’s boots. The temperature dropped again, so fast that the moisture in the air turned to mist.
The big man frowned, his breath coming out in white puffs. "You’re bluffing," he muttered, raising both hands. "Let’s see you handle this."
He slammed his palms into the ground. The pavement cracked open, and thick walls of rock erupted around him, forming a rough fortress. He followed it by spreading his fingers, and sharp icicles burst from the ground like spikes, covering the area in a chaotic forest of ice and stone.
For a few seconds, the street looked like a frozen battlefield.
"She’s done for now," someone in the crowd whispered.
"No way she can fight through that!" another said.
Lilith looked down, unimpressed. Then she moved her hand slightly, and the frost beneath her feet began to move. It flowed outward like liquid, crawling up the walls of rock and freezing them over.
The big man didn’t even notice until the ice reached his feet. He tried to move, but his boots were already frozen solid.
"What the—"
Before he could finish, Lilith raised both hands slowly, fingers spread wide. The ground trembled, and in an instant, the entire area around him erupted with jagged ice spikes. They shot out in every direction, ripping through the stone walls he had created.
Cracks echoed loudly. Shards of earth and ice flew everywhere.
The man grunted and punched the ground again, shattering the ice around his legs. He jumped backward, throwing his arms up, and massive slabs of rock lifted from the road, spinning around him like shields.
Lilith tilted her head slightly. "You like hiding behind walls?" she said softly. "Fine. Let’s take them away."
She moved her hands again, and this time, the air itself froze. The temperature dropped so suddenly that even the cameras started to glitch from the frost forming on their lenses.
A glowing blue mist surrounded Lilith. Her hair lifted slightly from the surge of power, and then hundreds—no, thousands—of thin, needle-like shards appeared in the air. They hovered behind her in perfect formation, glittering in the sunlight like a storm of diamonds.
"What is that?" someone yelled.
"Is she controlling all of that?"
"This is insane!"
The man inside his rock fortress looked up, his confidence finally slipping. "No... this isn’t possible."
Lilith’s eyes narrowed. "You should have walked away."
Her hand dropped.
The sky seemed to shatter.
The shards rained down all at once, screaming through the air in a blur of blue and white. They slammed into the earth wall with a deafening sound, each one exploding on contact. The man tried to reinforce the wall, but the force was too much. The rock cracked, splintered, then shattered completely.
He was thrown backward, rolling across the frozen pavement as the shards kept coming. He yelled, slamming his palm into the ground to raise another barrier of ice, but Lilith was faster. She spun her wrist, and the shards curved midair, slicing around the barrier and hitting him from behind.
"Argh!" he roared, his back slamming against a car that immediately froze solid from the impact.
The audience gasped. Some screamed. Others covered their mouths, unable to believe what they were seeing.
"Holy shit, she’s winning!"
"She’s not even breaking a sweat!"
"What kind of monster is she?"
Lilith landed lightly on the ground, her boots crunching over frozen glass. Steam rose from her body as the air shimmered with cold energy. She looked at the man, who was trying to stand, blood dripping from a cut on his forehead.
He was breathing hard now, his chest heaving. His muscles tensed as he slammed both hands to the ground again. The earth beneath him erupted, sending massive stone fists out of the pavement. They swung toward her with the weight of boulders.
Lilith didn’t move at first. She waited until they were close, then raised one hand.
The fists froze mid-swing. Ice crawled up the stone arms, spreading in a heartbeat until the entire construct was solid. Then, with a small flick of her wrist, the frozen arms shattered into millions of tiny pieces.
The man looked up, shocked. Before he could react again, Lilith appeared in front of him. She didn’t teleport; she simply moved faster than his eyes could track. Her fist connected with his chest, and the impact sent him flying backward through the air. He hit the ground hard, rolling and crashing through a car.
She didn’t stop there. She raised her arm again, and the air around him froze instantly. The car he had landed against turned into solid ice, trapping him inside a thick crystal shell.
He struggled, slamming his fists against it. Cracks appeared, but the more he hit, the thicker the ice grew.
Lilith stepped forward slowly, her heels clicking against the frozen road. Her voice was calm. "Two powers," she said softly, looking at him through the ice. "And still not enough."
The man roared, his body glowing faintly as he tried to summon more power. The ice around him shook, and for a moment, it looked like he might break free. But Lilith just sighed.
She placed her hand against the air, palm facing downward. "Stay down."
The ice shell glowed bright blue, then exploded inward with a deep crack. The man dropped to his knees, coughing, frost covering his beard and eyebrows. He tried to lift his hand again, but his fingers were already too numb to move.
Lilith stood above him, looking almost disappointed. "You wanted Liam," she said. "Now you got me instead."
The crowd was dead silent. Only the faint sound of the wind could be heard.
The man groaned, his head lowering. The fight was over. Everyone knew it.
Lilith turned around slowly, her expression calm again, the power fading from her eyes. She brushed a bit of frost from her shoulder and walked away from him like nothing happened.
The crowd finally found their voices again.
"She beat him!"
"She beat both his powers!"
"That was unreal!"
The cameras zoomed in on her as she walked through the frozen street, the sunlight reflecting off the ice like shattered glass.
And for everyone watching around the world, that was the moment they realized something terrifying.
If this was what one of Liam’s people could do, they didn’t even want to imagine what he was capable of.
