Chapter 84: The last fight (II)
The explosion sent Arasbus flying away, burning wounds all over his body and blood leaking from his mouth due to the internal damage. The Abyssal was one of the lucky ones, as his strength and energy managed to save his life while the rest of the demons in the blast’s epicenter were blown to pieces.
Flames were everywhere, and the Abyssal could see bloody corpses and mangled demonic beasts scattered all around. Several Champion demons had also perished, while the rest were severely wounded.
It was a truly bloody and disturbing scene, but Arasbus was able to get over it quickly, as something like this was very common in his home. The demon’s first thought was to establish order.
’I need to act fast before those bloody humans have time to regain their energy,’ a cold light appeared in the Abyssal’s eyes. Even after the bloody mess and the death of nearly two thousand demonic beasts and several Champions, he was not ready to give up.
While the high demonic horde had suffered catastrophic losses, they had already reached the military base, and there was no more room for those traps and games. Now, everything would come down to a melee battle, and as long as the living demons gathered and marched forward, they would kill the humans.
Or at least that was Arasbus’s thought. Yet before he could even give the first order and direct his demons, his instincts began to scream like crazy. The Abyssal was shocked to feel his instincts react like that, and then he saw the origin.
A young man with a sword covered in electrified energy marched through the flames, a torrent of Origin Force charging into his body. His black eyes focused on the Abyssal Demon with a single intent.
Kill.
"AHHHH!" Vlad roared with rage and killing intent as the lightning propelled his body forward, granting his sword a shocking momentum as he hacked toward the Abyssal demon with everything he had.
Arasbus raised his massive spiked club right as the lightning sword came crashing, and his eyes widened with pure shock as he felt a force that made his arms tremble and pushed him back several meters!
’How is this possible!?’ The Abyssal could not believe what was happening. He had fought the man less than a month ago, and the human could only dodge his attacks back then. Yet now, the young man unleashed a sword strike that sent him flying away.
Even if this was a New Plane and the native inhabitants could use Origin Force to enhance themselves, the speed at which the young man rose was simply too fast.
