Is this really a Game?!
633 The Battle Reaches the Climax
With the strongest amongst the remaining demons being injured so severely, the rest all knew that things were looking bad. Their numbers were smaller compared to their enemies, and now, their most powerful combatant was about to be killed.
Still, they didn't despair or anything but started fighting even more ferociously. They knew that their souls would be fine thanks to the fact they were so far away from Reign, not to mention the fact that they knew he must be weakened immensely, perhaps not being able to devour any souls right now.
They were still not fully certain of that, and nobody amongst them wanted to test that theory by going to Reign, which was pretty much impossible right now thanks to the fact that they would be attacked by almost everyone the moment they turned their back to them.
In this battle, and the war for the mountain range, they were the ones that had failed.
Some demons had even ignited their cores, becoming incredibly powerful for a short moment of time before they would burn away, leaving nothing but a husk present. It was different from blowing up your mana core since burning meant that you were consuming everything there with incredible speed, which allowed one to gain incredible powers for a short period of time.
With the demons resorting to such measures, two of them even blowing themselves up and dealing some high damage to their opponents, Wolf and the others knew that the battle was at its climax. Only a few more minutes were left until the demons were gone, perhaps even less than that.
The one that Wolf and Shadow were fighting against smiled ferociously at them as he ignited his demon core as well. Blood-red flames erupted from his body as his aura grew, becoming even more powerful than before.
The demon attacked, and with incredible speed he aimed straight at Shadow, wanting to get rid of him first. Shadow was the one that managed to destroy his elbow and render his arm useless, and he wanted him to pay for that.
Shadow disappeared from the spot as he teleported to a nearby shadow. Still, things weren't looking too good for him. Teleporting so often had made him spend an incredible amount of mana, not to mention the [ Darkness Implosion ] he had previously used that was actually thrice as powerful as a normal one was.
Shadow had pumped in as much mana as he could in order to deal as much damage to the demon, and although it worked, it left him with little mana right now. He was unable to use another [ Darkness Implosion ] as that would leave him with virtually no mana left.
He teleported right behind Wolf, using him as a shield at this moment. Wolf merely glanced back at Shadow who got his daggers ready. Both men simply nodded to each other before charging at the demon.
Running away would not help them as the demon was now incredibly fast. Wolf wouldn't be able to outrun him, which meant that the only thing left for them to do was to fight him with everything they had.
Neither of them had battled against the demon at the same time previously as their plan needed the demon to think Shadow was much weaker than he was, and it was only now that he was going to get a taste of them both.
Shadow went first, his figure blurring as he was almost completely enveloped in darkness. He had used his mark now, something he hadn't done during the entirety of the battle. Wolf had already activated his mark a while back, so he couldn't do it now.
Still, with his powerful sword in his hands, he was certain that he would be able to fight against the demon, especially with him going all out and using all the remaining mana he had for this last part of the battle.
His flames erupted around him, most of them coating his sword while some coiled around his body as well. Small red arcs of lightning could be seen inside the flames as chaos energy tainted it, boosting its power, although not as much as it could had Wolf been more proficient with it.
The soul was still angry at Wolf, completely uninterested in helping him out and channeling some of the chaos energy to the flames. As it was now, the soul wouldn't care even if Wolf was to die, which meant that Reign and Wolf had to figure something out soon so that Wolf could have an easier time grasping the sword's full power.
Even if he was to gain some understanding of chaos energy, he would never be able to fully control the sword without the soul helping him out. The soul was trapped inside the sword, but it was thanks to that that it was able to bond with the chaos energy and wield it with great proficiency, greater than before, when the soul was still present in its body.
Shadow appeared in front of the demon who smiled ferociously and tried to grab him with his left hand. Shadow quickly lunged forward, dodging the hand by centimeters as he suddenly spun, slashing it multiple times, but only managing to deal some flesh wounds thanks to the empowered body the demon now possessed.
Still, that was enough to make the demon widen its eyes. Shadow was incredibly agile and flexible, allowing him to easily dodge attacks that came from a weird angle and go around the demon's large body.
The arm, the legs, the torso, in mere seconds, they were all covered in cuts that Shadow dealt to the demon. Although nothing more than flesh wounds that would do little to the demon, it was enough to get him angry as he was failing at hitting Shadow even once.
"Fast little bastard!" The demon cursed as he suddenly stomped the ground, making it shake heavily and forcing Shadow to slow down and even stop for a moment. The demon went for the kill right there, aiming at Shadow's head with a powerful punch, only to be blocked by Wolf's sword that the latter launched in front of Shadow.
The sword and Shadow were sent back, Shadow sliding for a couple of meters while the sword was sent flying, only to be quickly caught by Shadow who used the momentum to spin around.
The moment when the demon hit the sword, Wolf appeared above him, his fist burning with golden flames. He punched down with full force, aiming straight at the demon's head while two explosions occurred behind him, boosting him.
The demon suddenly moved his right arm which was supposed to be fully immobilized. With the burning of the core, the demon was able to somewhat heal the arm, not enough to fight, but enough to move it.
He blocked Wolf's attack with his arm, making the wound from before appear once again, only that this time, the arm was in an even worse state. Even though he had healed it, it was only superficial and the arm was brittle.
The arm was now black from the burns it had received while the bones inside had been broken, this time, the injury was even worse than before it was not only the elbow but the hand as well as the rest of the arm as well.
The demon's face was slightly burned as well, but he still smiled at Wolf with ferociousness as he clenched his left fist, ready to attack.
That was when Shadow let go of the sword. He had spun multiple times, causing a fierce wind to blow around him before letting go of the sword, launching it at the demon with darkness covering it.
The darkness only covered the sword on the surface as anything else would gain the resentment of the chaos energy inside, resulting in the two energies clashing.
The sword arrived and the demon was forced to move to the side, but his waist was still cut, a large gash appearing as some of his intestines spilled out.
Wolf quickly took the sword before charging at the demon while Shadow did the same. The battle-hungry demon stared at them with a smile as he met their attacks. Even with such gruesome injuries and only one arm remaining, it continued fighting.
The demon loved to fight, especially those that were good in melee. Having a battle against Wolf and Shadow made him excited as he used everything he had to fight them. His blood-red flames were burning around, making it impossible for Shadow and Wolf to get close to him without using mana to shield themselves.
His body was slowly starting to turn black, being consumed by the flames that were boosting his power.
"Ah, it seems this is it." The demon suddenly said as he stopped moving. Both Shadow and Wolf stared at him, slightly afraid that he was going to explode like the rest as a last-ditch effort to deal with them.
"I can see your faces, don't worry, I resent using such tactics." The demon said before spitting on the ground. His legs couldn't move anymore as the flames had completely consumed them. His left arm was no better and soon, only his head was left normal.
"It was a good fight, let's do it again." The demon said as the flames erupted, consuming his head and turning his entire body into charred remains that fell to the ground and broke to pieces.
