During the Dark Ages

'Fuck!! My DP is running low and if I let it get too low I will probably faint and that will mean instant death for me!' Thinking this, I made a quick decision, I snapped my finger and my fireball exploded causing the Greater imp's to explode as well.

[- 10 LP]

The impact from the explosion caused me to cough up blood a mouthful of blood, but I'm pretty sure that woman had it worse. I looked down from the sky and saw the woman getting up in the distance. Her skin was severely burned but that was healing rapidly as well then noticed something else, her aura has gotten weaker, much much weaker than before but then again so has mine. With how much DP I have left I won't be able to last much longer and I was still trapped in this dome. I was honestly surprised that it was still standing after all those explosions. I flapped my wings fast and flew towards the woman with my claws fully extended. The woman roared and lunged at me as well, not backing down. We clashed claws against claws, neither of us bothering to use our flames just our bodies in a primal, beast-like clash. At first I tried my best to dodge her claw strikes while counter attacking but soon I forego any defense and only focused on landing my claws on my opponent. Soon, I started using my fangs to bite chunks of flesh out of my opponent and lost myself in a primal, instinct fueled fighting style. The two of us clawed and bit into each other trying our best to kill each other and soon my [Regeneration] couldn't keep up with my injuries anymore. The woman roared and swung down her claws at me and I grabbed her hand with my tail and impaled her on my horns and then lit my horns with hell fire causing her to scream in pain.

[4/38 DP]

My mind felt heavy like lead and my entire body was begging me to rest but I had to continue fighting. As the fight continued, I became more and more bestial in my fighting style and I genuinely thought I was going to die then I saw something that sparked hope in me once again. Throughout the entire fight the greater imp woman healed from every injury I gave her but now she wasn't, her injuries stopped healing. I continued slashing and biting into her as she did the same to me. She suddenly swung both her hands at me from either sides of my body and I placed my wings in the way to block the strike. My wings were pierced through but they successfully blocked the attack. I grabbed both of her hands with my own and shoved my head forward impaling my horns into her chest as we fell to the ground. We laid their as I could hear blood gurgling in her mouth and I could feel all the pain I had accumulated from the fight assault my body all at once.

[You have slain a level 11 Greater Imp. You have gained 6,660 exp.]

[You have gained a level. You are now level 10/15.]

I removed my horns from her chest and slumped onto the ground panting loudly. After a few minutes, I struggled to get on my feet once again and almost fell back down but using pure willpower, I started walking forward but I soon stopped once again. Surrounding me were the six Greater imps that created the Devil Dome or whatever it was called.

"You managed to beat, Mox even after she used the Bellicus family's ability. You really are a strong Demon." The Greater imp in front of me said. I looked at him and for the first time I noticed the state the Greater imps were in. Their usually muscular frames were now skin and bones with all their muscles disappearing as if they never existed in the first place.

'It must have been that devil dome thing, it must have took more than just DP to sustain it after the constant strain put on it by the explosions.' I thought

"Usually we would just kill you but I would like to make an offer, why don't you join Bellicus family?" The Greater imp offered and it sounded enticing to my ears, after all I didn't want to die and in my current state even a normal human could probably kill me. I thought the offer over a bit.

"I think I'll pass but thank you for the offer ." In the end, my pride won, even though I knew I would die because of my choice.

"(Sigh) What a shame, you would have made a great warrior." The greater imp said with his extended claws, then lunged at me ready to pierce his claws through my chest but he never made it. Just before he could pierce my chest, something wrapped around my waist and pulled me away and soon I found myself flying through the sky as the sun rose.
