NOVPUBThe Demon in front of me looked like a tall Human with blue hair, golden eyes and black skin, his white horns had black inscriptions, even for a Demon his appearance was too normal, but his presence is overwhelming.
I’m sure he’s releasing all his Aura in a demonstration of power, he wants to intimidate me to prevent or postpone a battle, his focus is not me but the Core of this Magical Kingdom.
"(Layla, can you feel it?)" (I)
"(Yes, he thinks he can take what’s mine, I want to slaughter these bastards under my feet!!)" (Layla)
The Demon was still talking, but it was already too late, without the restrictions of the chains the Aura of this entire place appeared renewed to the point that even though he was stronger than me he was not able to feel my Heralds entering the mansion.
"< Inversion >" (I)
Of the 3 inside the mansion, I change places with Haku, I also change places with Layla and Cinthia, one thing I learned from my last fights was to never trust what I see.
As soon as I was inside the mansion I realized that everything was visibly the same, but at the same time different, I could feel the layer of Demonic energy inside the walls and the floor, it was trying to corrode everything, but at least by feeling it I was able to continue to the mansion fountain, was in the hall.
"Careful, he knows." (I)
"What do you wish to do, my Lord?" (Cinthia)
"..." (I)
I couldn’t speak directly to Cinthia, as I placed a finger on her forehead transferring the information directly to her mind.
"I will do as I command." (Cinthia)
"..." (Layla)
"..." (I)
Layla looked at me wanting to ask something, but before she could open her mouth I shook my head in denial, she must have already realized that we are being observed, there is some kind of Territory trying to occupy the same space as this mansion, I don’t know how it can I’m so confident of achieving something this way, so I’m being cautious as much as I can while walking blindly here.
Following the flow of Demonic power to the hall I found him, he was looking at us when we entered, his real body looks the same as the one outside, but the fury nonseunrostobera apparent.
"< Holy Magic: Titan Sword >" (me/Layla)
"<Demon Flames> ×1000"
When two enemies meet there is no need for conversation or anything like that, unless the conversation is part of the plan like he tried to do with that copy before.
Our two attacks were very different and I soon understood the reason for that, my attack created a magic circle with Layla’s magic combined with mine from which a great sword passes pointed at the Demon containing the power of countless elements strengthened by the Holy Power.
The bastard didn’t seem to worry about my attack as red flames that appeared to be made of dust spread from him to all sides with figures emerging from those flames taking his shape with fiery hair.
There were many of them as they attacked and their fire seemed to be Cursed, the divine power could be barking in that fire and that’s why he didn’t think he could resist a direct attack like that, it would be very risky.
As I backed away, I saw him extending his hand from which a metal trident with just 2 ends that looked like horns appeared, he used this to break the Titan sword, but as I backed away I couldn’t help but smile once again.
This entire mansion was part of this magical item and there were no longer those chains restricting our control here, with Layla’s help I opened a hole in the ceiling and another in the floor, while we fell out of the mansion, Cinthia fell from the top floor towards the Demon.
Cinthia appeared above him and I switched places with her, thus avoiding all the flames from before, when I switched places with her I was already sharing my senses and I saw the Demon using his soul against Cinthia who would not be able to dodge this attack.
When I switched places with Cinthia, my body was turning to the side and a Purple Sun shone in the palm of one of my hands.
"< Sacred Eclipse Magic: Cursed Sun Dragon >" (I)
My hand becomes a Dragon claw from which purple flames sprout as if it were liquid metal taking the shape of a Dragon heading towards the Demon.
"< Demonic Magic: Unholy Shield >"
His shield wasn’t strong enough when mine arrived and it almost broke, he was smart to use his Divine Weapon to strengthen the shield to prevent it from breaking, yet he was still being pushed against the ground.
"(Layla, open the floor!)" (I)
I share my senses with Layla who is outside for her to see through my eyes, seconds later the ground opens beneath the Demon making him fall as he is continually pushed by my attack.
"< Multi Elemental Magic: Fragment of Nature >" (Layla)
"< Demonic Magic: Beast Sword >" (Ragnar)
"< Breath of Chaos >" (Hades)
"< Blood Breath >" (Haku)
"< Breath of the Apocalypse >" (Cinthia)
Each of them was already waiting outside prepared for a fatal blow, that’s what I told Cinthia to prepare, but I didn’t expect Ragnar to participate, I’m glad he got better.
The 3 breath attacks had the same destructive power, but it was strange to see, the Starfire from Hades’ attack seemed to be liquid, the Blood from Haku’s attack seemed like a mist or perhaps red vapor and Cinthia’s Demonic power in her attack it seemed to have crystallized into sheets.
Layla in turn crystallized several elements together, reinforcing them in layers before breaking into dozens of fragments heading towards the Demon.
Ragnar, as expected, used a sword attack, but this time the head of a beast appeared from the sky, opening its mouth from which the blade of a great sword came out, falling towards the Demon who was still dealing with my attack.
"< Incarnation of Demon God Possession >"
Suddenly his eyes are filled with murderous intent, I feel the power he tried to use in the mansion shake as it is sucked towards him creating a tornado of Demonic energy that sucks in everything around him, this includes the attacks he was receiving.
His Divine Power was like acid corroding the powers of our attacks separating them from the Essence that I could not use, I saw the power of the Essences of my 3 Heralds, my 2 Familiars and my own Essence coming out of the tornado while almost making it disperse.
I wanted to get closer and end this fight but it was useless to get close at the risk of something I know nothing about, it was at that moment that the Demons fighting against the others acted, they did some type of Summoning technique from which a gate opened. 𝓃𝓸𝓋𝓹𝓾𝓫.𝒸ℴ𝓶
Hundreds of Demonic Specters were emerging, reinforcements for a battle that should be lost to them, my head was already spinning with all these problems appearing one after another.
I unfortunately had no way to help others while facing this bastard, but I motioned for my Heralds and Ragnar to join the others in combat, I had a way to end this with just Layla by my side.
It didn’t take long for the tornado to break apart, but what it revealed was a giant with crystallized blood wings, horns like swords, Starfire around its body, and an armor of elemental energy fragments.
These things were not just being used by him, I could feel in his Aura that it was part of his body and was still causing damage.
He didn’t even waste time trying to say anything, be it complaints about me or simply releasing curses in my name, I could feel that the state he is in is a two-edged sword, it protected him from our attacks at the same time as it fortified him, but That doesn’t mean there wasn’t a cost.
I could feel the Starfire burning his body, the fragments of nature energy tearing his body, and the crystallized blood wings sucking life energy from him.
He couldn’t stay like this for long or he would die to his own power, so he attacked without fear, he didn’t have time for that anymore.
"< Holy Summon: Star Sword >" (I)
"< Divine Incarnation: 80% >" (I)
The sword appears from a crack in space and I hold it tightly as my power grows with the Divine Spark within me, if at first it was like the last Spark of a bonfire, nowadays it is like a forest fire within me.
My power grew and we both began to exchange blows, his trident was a Divine Weapon and with that just my Star Sword was not enough to make a difference, so I made the Cursed Sun flow from my hand to the sword and the Fragmented Moon become the blade of the sword, with my Divine Weapon fused with the Star Sword our conditions were supposed to be equal, yet the one thrown back continuously was always me.
It was a strange feeling to be attacked by the power of my companions and my own power, the Starfire around his body burned with each attack and my life energy was sucked away with each cut his wings made against me.
The only reason I was able to hold my own against him was the infinite Mana nourishment this place was providing me.
"(Layla, do it now!)" (I)
