117 Episode 57: Chaos and More Chaos Part 2 (1/2)

He was indeed me and I was him. I just failed to accept it, but that is not the point here. Why is he showing up now?

”Ha... you can't be helped. I will aide you this once. But after that, I will not interfere anymore, even if you die already.”

Before I knew it, I was returned to reality, the pain came flowing back to my nerves. However, this time around, the blood stopped flowing out of my body and the magic circle that formed in the rift is now formed.

”NO!” the demon priest is shouting in grief as the rift's entrance is slowly covered with blood-red chains jumping up and down like snakes on the rift. They are not flying and diving into the ground though, the chains are currently acting as a thread that will eventually sew the rift shut.

Soon, the rift was no longer be seen and a howl so hollow that might have come from the depths of the earth, echoes throughout the whole Phantasmal Reality. The lesser demons stopped fighting while the other high ranking demons opened their own portals and escaped in the heat of the battle.

The female demon fighting against Voltaire is quite messed up but Voltaire is also the same as her.

”Heh... I never thought that I have to go all out just to fight a puny magician like you. I commend you with that, heh...” the female demon said as she wiped the blood from her mouth.

”Hmph, I am just not in the proper condition right now, but if I ever am in full condition, I will slay you down, demon.”

”I am going to wait for that and the next time we meet, you will be dead!” the female demon said before she flew up and disappeared on the horizon.

All the other battles happening also ended. The higher demons that were supposed to help the priest defend the rift are nowhere to be seen resulting in the lesser demons to die without any sort of power and morale left for them.

The magicians immediately killed the remaining demons without hesitation. Even those who begged for their lives did not manage to live. All they could do is escape, but that is also not a guarantee.

”I refuse to accept this! I REFUSE TO ACCEPT THIS!” the demon priest raises his staff into the sky and a large bolt of lightning struck his staff. His scream echoes throughout the whole Phantasmal Reality.

Inari-sama healed me again and all the lost energy from earlier due to the spell was recovered allowing me to stand up and ready to go if there is a fight going to happen.

”I have a bad feeling about this,” Titan said as he approached my side alongside with Moonlight, Erina, Maple, and Anya.

”Is everyone alright?” I asked.

”How rude, I am still alive and this is still flesh and bones, not some ethereal being floating around. It takes more than that to kill me.”

”Guys, this is not the time to squabble, the enemy is charging up and looking dangerous!” Erina said and pointed the demon priest that got struck with lightning.

The other magicians started to gather up too and saw what was happening to the demon priest.

”Crap! Eliminate him immediately! He is trying to morph!” Zan shouted and started chanting a magic skill that invokes a great explosion.
