Chapter 145: Let’s See What You’ve Got
As the three stepped onto the eightieth floor, the atmosphere instantly changed. A suffocating aura of hatred filled the air, making Leo’s chest tighten as a wave of dread crashed over him.
His instincts flared. Danger was imminent, causing him to become aware of a danger. Without hesitation, Leo spun around, grabbing Veladra and Astra before hurling them back toward the safety of the entrance.
’’Get back!’’ he shouted, his voice sharp and commanding.
Just as that happened, a monster crashed into him and created a crater because of the force. The two demon women panicked. They went to rush toward him, but a roar stopped them in their tracks.
Astra’s eyes widened as she muttered with fear creeping into her voice, ’’Devils! How are they here?’’
When Veladra heard this, she panicked. ’’Master is out there!’’
The Demon Queen nodded in acknowledgment, but before she could act, his voice rang out. ’’Don’t you dare come! This thing is as strong as I am.’’
Climbing out of the smoking crater, Leo shook his head, brushing off the debris clinging to him. As he steadied himself, his eyes locked onto the figure before him, a towering, ten-foot-tall humanoid with rippling muscles.
Its features resembled that of a demon, but there was something far more sinister in its presence, a darkness that seemed to radiate pure evil. Leo’s smile grew as his battle lust exploded.
A blur caught his attention as a group of devils rushed toward Astra and Veladra. When Leo saw this, he exploded toward them and crashed into the first devil, the sheer impact sending it flying into a wall with a sickening crunch.
Without missing a beat, he whirled around and unleashed California Smash on the second; the force obliterating it in an instant. ’’Get back!’’ Leo barked as he shoved Astra and Veladra toward safety.
