Chapter 380 Chapter 380 Ill Fate.
Never will he forget the face that Soma met for the first time since he arrived in this world. She slightly has a different appearance from usual, but that does not matter. What he was most concerned about was how she could still be alive when Soma was certain he had crushed her skull back then on that bridge.
Devi, who had a cramped expression on her face, glared at Soma and then to Luxuria on her hand. She sighed helplessly, watching the outcome of one of her peers and also her insurance being beaten to a pulp one-sidedly.
She turned to the boy, and a moment of daze came, then a flash of memories from her body and the experience he received at that time began to flood him. Intense rage began to boil her calm blood, speeding up her heart rate.
A shockwave of leaked Aura emerged from all over her skin. Her lips spread, showing her white teeth and dilated pupils.
However, within a moment of her carelessness, a shadow of a fist appeared, blocking her line of sight. Upon realizing what it was, she put forth a barrier from her mana around her face and received the blow directly head-on as her body blew away with Luxuria in her hands.
Soma began to pursue his opponent, but apparently, that punch did not damage Devi whatsoever. Devi summoned her sword and began to plunge it deeply into the ground.
With a little twist of the wrist, a brilliant magic circle spread around her beneath.
He felt a tremendous chill run across his back; Soma brought his right hand forward and began to imagine the might of God's element that brought judgment to the land. Soma focused on himself, and crackles sprouted from his palm.
Soon, the crackles spread out, turning into untamed crimson lightning that wreaked havoc in the surrounding area. Gradually, the wild energy dwindled down and gathered into a single point in his palm.
"Thunderbolt!".
Soma sang the magic name, and a miniature lightning with its zig-zag characteristic settled down on his palm. At each point, it was sharp, leaking tiny veins that crackled in joy after being released.
He inhaled deeply and threw the thunder in his palm. It darted quickly and arrived before Devi's face in a matter before a second passed.
Her body stiffened, and she realized the danger that was contained within the attack. She canceled the magic circle beneath her and swung her sword upward, intending to deflect the bolt. But upon making contact with the sword body, the bolt crackles, and it bursts apart, sending a myriad of clusters of tiny dragons swarming around.
Soma clenched both hands, and two thunderbolts appeared on his palms, making the people and awakeners aside who saw the scene earlier back away, frightened to be getting involved.
After the smoke cleared out, Devi's figure began to move away from its camouflage. She pointed her sword tips ahead and unleashed her magic.
"Devour Blazing python!".
Spark began to ignite around her, and a swirling of magnanimous flame enveloped them both, gathering into the tips of her sword. In an instant, a figure of a python with its massive maw opened shot forward, trying to devour Soma inside.
He threw the bolts in his hands, but they had no effect despite being detonated. Soma tensed his muscles and began to jump away from his place. With one gesture from Devi, the python began to chase after him.
"Tch, so it has an aim function".
Using his swift movements and legendary boosts to dance around the air, Soma alternates his steps to get far away from the civilians, whether its building or people, even an awakener.
The blazing python kept following his footsteps, reaching a high altitude where normal humans couldn't see it. Far away from the enemy gaze, Soma's instinct flared up, indicating that danger or something had happened down there.
Soma concentrated his internal energy on his eyes to see what was happening under him. His eyes widened when he found Devi preparing another magic circle again, just like earlier. He concentrated and created another two bolts and then threw them with all his might toward Devi.
A bright crimson line launched in a straight line. It moved so fast that in just a blink, it arrived at Devi's front side. Her focus was distracted, canceling the magic. Devi tensed her muscles and intended to flee from the place.
She leaped back and arrived at the crowds still gathered in the surrounding area, busy with their phones. Using the people as leverage, Devi maneuvered and eventually entered a dark alley, then disappeared from the oblivious gaze of people who were curious about her identity.
"Oi, woman? are you awake".
"Uukh, it hurts!".
Devi shook Luxuria, who was vulnerable, but hearing her weak response was enough to know her condition. Inside a narrow and dim alley, she racked her brain, trying to find a way to escape.
The boy that she took lightly at that time had grown tremendously in such a short time. This feat was too frightening to let be. Also, there is the matter of the chosen savior, who is rumored to have a monstrous growth beyond the boy who is currently after them.
Unknown to her, she felt her lips loosen, broke into a fearless grin, and licked her lips. Couldn't hold herself back from imagining what would happen if she devoured both of them. She probably would attain a power rivaling her Demon Lord.
"Hehehehe…!?".
All of a sudden, her face stiffened, and chills gripped her heart bare, prompting her to look up. She witnessed a single streak of crimson meteor shot down, slicing her cheek from above.
Warm blood oozed from her cheek, and its throbbing pain, which came from her excitement and a bit of fear, mixed together, turning her mind into a mess. Above her, the sky is fading, unfurling its curtain of the day, lingering between the tranquil atmosphere with its orange hue.
A figure of a death god shot downward with its leg straight, and a moment of silence happened; the shadow passed Devi's side, blood spurted, and she lost half her balance.
When she turned to the side, she noticed that her left hand, which carried Luxuria, was gone to its shoulder.
Silence permeated before an intense agony assaulted her nerves, opening up her mouth wide and screaming like a madman to the heavens.
"Aaaaakh!How dare you do this to me!".
Soma turned his back and faced the crazed Demon before him calmly without any ripple from his eyes. He glanced at Luxuria, who seemed to have recovered a bit. She looked at him with a terrified expression, unbecoming of her status as Demon.
With a bit of his movement, the ground beneath him got cut off, and Soma activated his Boots personal skill, Lightning Glaive. From his heels to toe, the boots snarled with intense crimson lightning that compressed to its limit, creating a lunar blade under.
He took a step forward while raising his leg, intending to behead Luxuria before she entered her tantrum phase. Luxuria could only stare at the impending guillotine as she was petrified, unable to do anything.
However, realizing something was not right, Soma backed off. From beneath them, a black flame conjured from hatred burst forth, enveloping the two demons, whose skin gradually peeled off by the flame and revealed its true appearance.
The flame was pitch black, scorching hot, and pickled even Soma, whose body was enveloped by his internal energy. Soma leaped further back, and the black flames opened their curtain to reveal Devi, twice her original size. Luxuria's figure had turned hideous.
Six pairs of eyes are planted on her face, and her mouth has protruding teeth that reach to her end jaw. Her skin turned gray, and Luxuria had no cloth to cover her private parts. One thing that made her hideous was the appearance of multiple tentacles on her lower part instead of feet, from her crotch, another mouth gasping with protruding teeth.
Devi's figure had transformed like Gura he knew off. Her skin had turned black, and she had a pair of black bat wings and goat horns on her skull. "Even though her new vessel was different, the inside was still the same," Soma muttered under his breath.
"No, no noooooo!".
A high-pitched scream reverberated across the alley and instilled fear in everyone's heart who heard it. Luxuria noticed her figure had changed; looking at her own figure, the texture of the horns on her temple and skinned hair made her body tremble.
"Shut the hell up! Let's do something about the boy first!".
"What do you know!? I am desperately trying to hide this figure of mine to be known to the public and yet… You bastard ruined it".
"Quit your whining, the boy would kill us before we can get out of here".
While hearing the two demons bantering, Soma was clutching his chest tight. Intense rage surged from within and drove his mind mad. He was familiar with this feeling; this also happened when he fought Gura on that bridge.
{Let me out! I want to kill him for sure this time! Oi, Soma!}
[Extra Skill Puppeteer activated]
"Shut it!".
With a firm tone and unbroken resolve, Soma pushed away his devil personality deep into his own lair and faced the two demons with his own will. Continue your saga on empire
"Prepare yourself Demons, I will eradicate you here and now!".
