Chapter 273 - John Vs The Demon (1/2)

As John turned back, his eyes widened. The demon was gone.

Seeing this, John quickly looked around. His head turned left and right as he tried finding it's lost presence. But despite all of that, John had no luck. The demon was nowhere to be seen.

Not on the walls, not above them, not anywhere. The only place it could have been would have been in the pit beneath the bridge and around the arena. But eitherway, John couldn't sense it there with deprehendre.

John took in a deep breath before slowly letting it out. After doing so, he looked forward and stared straight at the cube.

[If you won't come out from hiding then...]

The air which John had been gathering behind him suddenly burst propelling the weightless John past the bridge, straight above the giant cube.

Everyone watched as John flew above it. With his eyes glowing a bright yellow, he pointed his arms down at the cube.

And only a few seconds after, a bright glowing white light was formed in front of his hands in the shape of a sphere.

”I wasn't able to use this before because of 'possession' but... The situation is different now.” John muttered

Yellow electric zaps began to zap the air around John and his hand as electricity flowed through the glowing trident.

As this happened, the trident began to rotate itself anti-clockwise at a highspeed. As John saw, he sent a glare straight at the cube before grabbing on to the rotating trident.

The Rotations Per Minute was high, it was almost as if it was being spun by a machine, so naturally, cuts began to form on John's hand as he grabbed it. Nevertheless, it continued to Rotate.

”If you won't come out then... I'll just make you.” Muttered John before throwing the trident straight down

The air which was being gathered behind it, burst at the same moment, propelling the already fast trident at an even faster speed.

*VOOM!*

Right as the trident was about the hit the dark cube from above, it sent out another pulse, and as this happened.

*Clang!* *BZZT!*

John barely avoided it, by tilting his head to the left. As he did so, he felt a sharp sting as blood flowed down his cheek.

*CRASH!*

The trident crashing and pierced straight into the stone ceiling before eventually dispersing. And as this happened, John stared down at the what stood beneath him.

It was the demon, it seemed to have grown even stronger. It was shorter, but now seemed to be wearing a strange dark armour around it, as dark wings sprouted out of it's back.

Serena and Lydia who saw this, looked even more worried. The movement was so fast that they had nearly missed it.

John saw what happened clearly. Right as the trident was about to make contact with the cube. The demon came out of it, before hitting it away with it's hands.
