Chapter 87: Who is he? (2/2)
Yman immediately stopped on his feet but because the floor was littered with ice, he slid for a couple of steps.
A crimson fireball passed at a palm-size distance away from his face. The fireball continued towards the entrance. And it was followed by an explosion that shook the entirety of the underground channel. Even the people on the surface felt it.
Those living at a relatively close in the area rushed outside while shouting, ”Be careful there's a quake!”
”Noooo, maybe some terrorist group were attacking the city again!”
”Call the soldiers! And the guards!”
”Romeo? Where is Romeo?”
”Careful everyone, thieves may take advantage of the calamity!”
”Hide your husband!”
”Oh no, Juliet was still inside the house!”
”Yamete kudasai!!”
”Dang, those people are idiots, I would rather take a video for this. I'm sure to get more subscribers later in YT if I made a live coverage!” One person was able to think rationally. Then he took his MTMD to start recording the scene.
Some poorly-made houses showed cracks. And some people kneeled on the ground while praying to the sky.
Moments later, because the title of the video was very catchy, which was 'The City Of Zone 7's Demise!', the viewers started to appear one after another.
A girl of about six years old was crying on the roadside while looking for her parents. Then a shady man came near to the kid and asked her.
The angry shrill of the vlogger named 'NoToPedopie' could be heard in the video. He was shooting the shady person who came to the lost child.
After seeing the vlogger recording a video, the shady person rushed rapidly to who knows where.
Jarring shouts from the rattle crowds could be overheard in the area near the Underground Channel.
All of these scenes were caught in the video. Sooner or later, some random explosion could be overheard also. And the quaking of the grounds followed closely after the explosion.
Inside the underground channel, in the cold room, Yman and the others had no choice but to face this so-called Demon of Possession.
Some parts of the ceiling had crumbled and a segment of it blocked the passage.
”What is he?” Almina asked while wiping the blood on her mouth.
”That is one of the Demon of Possession,” Ice replied.
”So he possesses the Junior trainee,” Maena said.
”Mhm, you guys must be careful not to enter his range. With your current strength, you won't last long. Forgot even lasted longer, you couldn't even move near him.”
”Miss Ice was right,” Yman agreed to her while readying himself at the next attack of the enemy.
”Okay!”
”Tis.”
”Ehehehe, insects.....” The demon Ultima sneered at them.
He was currently standing on the altar facing towards them. And on his palm was a bigger crimson flame that coagulated into a fireball.
Ice stepped on the front, while Yman was a little on her back, Almina was on his right and Maena on his left. Both of them were gasping for breath already.
Never did Yman imagine that something like this would happen in this underground channel. Now he was facing a being that way above their strength.
”Heeeh!” The demon Ultima sneered, showing his pointed teeth. Then he lifted his hand and threw the Crimson Fireball.
It was rapidly approaching them.
Seeing the fireball that rapidly approaching, each of them grimaced.
Yman knew that even if they successfully avoided it, the demon would soon follow up with another attack. So basically, they become a live target.
At this thought, he ran on the front and extended his palm pointing at the coming fireball.
”Yman!” Almina shouted.
His left hand was supporting his right arm.
Then his eyes glinted while gritting his teeth.
And in his mind, he shouted, 'This time, I will not make a blunder of myself!' He shouted inwardly.
”Watch out!” Ice shouted, but it was too late.
In a split second, the fireball that was shot had hit him, which followed by a dazzling explosion.
”Ehehehehe….ahahaha such idiot ahahah…” the Demon laughed at the person who sacrificed himself.
Almina and the others were shocked at what Yman did. She was staring at the place where he was standing a while ago, but right now it was enveloped by blinding lights.
Tears flowing at the corner of her eyes. Even Maena and Ice gaped in surprise. Never did they imagine that Yman was so courageous.
Yet a moment later.
”Heh!” They heard a snort.
Everyone turned silent and stared with wide-eyes.
Even the demon was no exception.
When the blinding light dissipated, they saw him standing still at his original position.
But, who is this in front of them? He seemed to be different.
