Chapter 85: This Food Is Nice
Leo’s head swam, his vision blurred, but he forced himself to his feet. He steadied himself, Amara appeared, her expression a mix of shock and urgency. ’’Hero!’’ she exclaimed, her voice trembling. ’’That’s a Level four hundred Duke, one of the Demon Queen’s most loyal servants!’’
He looked at the purple-haired woman with a smirk as he replied, ’’What about it? I will beat him up and show the queen that she shouldn’t mess with me.’’
Amara’s eyes widened in shock, but Leo wasted no time dashing toward the Demon Duke, who was charging at him. The two collided, their fists swinging in unison. Just as they closed the gap, his lips curled into a grin.
With lightning speed, he ducked under the Duke’s powerful punch and he drove his fist deep into the man’s gut, the force of the blow leaving the enemy gasping. But Leo quickly backed off and started casting Thunderbolt.
Explosions erupted, which washed over the Demon allowing him to dash in and land several Supernova Punches. The loud booms rang out, but the man started blocking most of the attacks before countering.
The sight of the Duke’s fist inches from his face surprised Leo. When it connected, his world went dizzy as he crashed across the ground until coming to a stop while his ears rang. ’Ah fuck, I need to be careful. This opponent is something different.’
Following that, he looked up as the Demon was approaching with a smile, but he noticed the look of pain on his face, ’So I hurt him in the end,’ he thought while readying himself.
Leo unleashed a barrage of Thunderbolts and Fireballs, each one crashing into the Demon Duke with explosive force. But to his surprise, the attacks seemed to have no effect this time, as he blocked the spells.
Undeterred, he charged forward, preparing to land a decisive punch. However, just as his fist flew toward its target, the Duke’s sinister smile widened, and in the blink of an eye, he vanished, disappearing without a trace.
