Chapter 146: Hell-Bound (2/2)
After a loud cry,
”HEEELL-BOOOUUND!” Everyone heard a hoarse but thunderous utterance of words.
They glanced at the source; behind the smoke, a red gleaming color was visible from it.
A moment after the words were spoken, a strong pressure exploded and instantly wiped out the covering smoke. Then all of the participants inside the range of 50 meters away from the Demon Lord were taken aback and sent rolling on the ground. Jura and Nicholas who were inside as well were no exception.
Everyone noticed a huge segment of the pillar and the ceiling was destroyed.
Dum!
Suddenly, the floor trembled. They fixed their eyes in front and what they saw made them speechless. All of them froze and stared wide-eyed!
The Demon Lord had now red skin and on its face, the supposed to be closed eye was now open and was gleaming in red. On the contrary, the other eye with a purplish glow was now close.
The tusk on its mouth grows longer. And some horns grew on its shoulders and the back.
”Tsk! Fire it!” Hilion did not wait and ordered an attack.
But before everyone could move, a second later, 50 meters around the lord, the floor suddenly was on fire.
The place suddenly became a hell-like place! From the ground, some silhouettes came crawling.
”L-Lesser Demons!” Someone among the crowd warned.
After he shouted,
”Tsk! These Demons again!”
Lesser Demons raised from the blazing floor. Then charged without a warning to the nearby enemy they spot upon.
Clang! Ting! Shing!
The noise of battle immediately resumed inside the room.
”Damnit, let's join!” Harou bellowed.
”Okay!” Lyka responded. Then flew with her Spirit Beast and fired magical attacks.
The Demon Lord kicked the floor and caused a pit on it. Then his figure disappeared and appeared in front of the ten participants!
Wwwwoooossshhh!
Bbbbbaaaaaannng!
A down strike that hit the floor and plowed the tiles on it.
The smashed floor broke into pieces. Debris and broken tiles flew everywhere, hitting the other participants around
Those who were hit by the attack had no way to react; they just died without knowing what happened.
The sudden attack summed up its size, causing a strong wind pressure which threw every participant and even the Lesser Demons who were close by.
”What the hell is that!” Nicholas subconsciously muttered.
Everyone started to grimace.
The Demon Lord silhouette disappeared once again and appeared in the opposite place while brandishing its scarlet blade weapon which is now exuding a darkish red aura, sending a chill to their spines.
Several participants died on the spot while the others were sent flying and smacked on the close wall.
”Roman, Gilion, let's deal with it!” Hilion shouted.
Roman did not reply but he walked in front emphasizing that he was ready for a fight.
Gilion twitched his brow.
The next time the Demon Lord disappeared, Roman leaped and blocked its attack using the claw of his Spirit Beast, the Lightning Mayhem. The rank 7 Spirit Beast. Not all geniuses could tame such a level of Spirit Beast at such a young age.
”He truly is a monster himself, tsk!” Gilion muttered upon seeing Roman blocking the attack of such an enemy.
”Anthony!” Hilion shouted the name of their newbie member.
”Yes sir!”
Without wasting any more second, Anthony invoke his binding spell —Wood Quadra - Binding Pillars—!
Four gigantic pillars jutted out from the floor; Roman immediately Stepped back.
In the middle of the four pillars was the Demon Lord. A second later, spikes appeared to impale it.
The lord tried to struggle but to no avail.
The next second, (Bang!) The Demon Lord stomped his foot on the ground and created a shockwave that broke the wood pillars.
Oowwwwwwwooohhhhh!!! It howled upon freeing himself.
Anthony was sent flying back but caught by Leon.
The battle became a chaotic battle. The Demon Lord followed up by a long horizontal strike that sent a scarlet wave of energy in the form of a lying crescent moon. Hilion and the others immediately duck and the others dove to evade.
But not all of them were lucky enough. Some heads flew in the air.
”Damn!”
