The loud sounds of swords clashing and screams of death caused Skr'll to slowly regained consciousness in the dim confines of the jungle people's sickbay.As she opened her eyes, she felt a sense of disorientation come over her. Her head throbbed with pain, and her body felt heavy and sluggish as she struggled to make sense of her surroundings.The last thing she remembered was fighting Hero Hinnel with Demon Lord Abron then getting pierced by an attack she had not seen coming.She wished she had been strong enough to sense such a attack from a mile off. She would need to get stronger if she hoped of being able to fight alongside Demon Lord Abron.With a groan, she pushed herself upright, blinking away the remnants of sleep as she tried to focus her thoughts. Her head was still scrambled into various pieces that it made her unable to think properly. She could feel her weakness and it more than irritated her than waking up in an unknown place."Where am I?" She asked herself.She turn
"Had enough?" Gonro asked as he watched Nicolas fall on one knee.He waited to see if Nicolas would be strong enough to continue his futile attempt to stop him. Nicolas scoffed at his words. There was no way he was going to give up until he was sure he has finally defeated Gonro. If his soliders saw that Gonro has been defeated then they would definitely retreat. He might as well kill two birds with one stone.Nicolas gathered the blood spilled on the ground and used it to form a longer and firmer sword than the one he had used earlier.Due to the fact that his new sword was mostly made from the blood of the jungle people, it's colour was dark green. It's glow made it seem like a weapon belonging to a villain in one of his video games."You think just one wound is enough to stop me?" Nicolas slowly stood up on his feet. "Come on, give me your best shot."Lou-ra stared at Nicolas in awe. She has always been impressed with how resilient he was. That was one of the things she admired de
Gonro's mind was filled with utter darkness as he struggled to make sense of the surreal scene unfolding before him. He stood within the depths of Nicolas's consciousness, his senses overwhelmed by the suffocating darkness that surrounded him. And there, standing before him, was the visage of Demon King Abron, the same Demon he had been fighting several seconds again.Gonro had heard about Demons that were able to use a type of magic where they carried their opponents into a space which they had complete power over, but It had only been in books."What is this place?" Gonro muttered to himself as he stared around."You do not bow before your king when you enter his presence?" Abron asked.Abron eyes Gonro cautiously. He had tried him right from when he was still a teenager. It wasn't a surprise he inflicted several injuries on Nicolas, it showed he remembered everything he had taught him.But still, it was an outrage that he had decided to join his enemies to soil his name and treat
As Nicolas held onto Gonro, the general remained trapped in a trance-like state, his eyes staring blankly ahead as if he were lost in another world. Nicolas could feel Abron had made contact with Gonro and they got into an altercation, which would explain why Gonro had frozen.As he kept his grip on the general, blood gushed out of his injuries and he groaned in pain. He wished his mana would replenish as fast as possible.Although he had not lived his entire life In the realm where magic was the most essential thing that defined a person's life, he still didn't like this feeling of powerlessness. He had grown accustomed to his new powers that it felt like not having it meant he had lost a vital part of himself."My lord!! I'm coming" Lou-ra said, her voice filled with concern for the wellbeing of her master.Lou-ra hurried to Nicolas's side, her hands glowing with healing magic as she tended to his wounds with gentle care. Nicolas attempted to stop her so she wouldn't waste her ma
Nicolas and Lou-ra exchanged a bewildered glance as they watched Skr'll engaged in fierce combat with the jungle people sorcerers. They had expected to find her still weak and recovering in the sickbay especially after the intense injury she sustained from her last battle.Nicolas could only do what he could to help Skr'll in her fight against their newfound allies. He marveled at how powerful she was, even as a human. He couldn't stop himself from continuously staring at her, while slaughtering his enemies in one blow.Before Nicolas could comprehend what was really happening and why the jungle people were attacking them, another powerful blast from the gem was fired at Skr'll.Skr'll immediately summoned a shield from her scales, but they proved ineffective against the powerful blast. In the blink of an eye, she was sent flying off her feet.Rushing forward, Nicolas attempted to check on if she had sustained any more injuries, his heart heavy with confusion and concern. Lou-ra put
As the fierce battle continued despite exhaustion being felt by both parties, Nicolas, Lou-ra, and Skr'll found themselves surrounded on all sides by the relentless onslaught of the jungle people's forces. Soliders charged forward with swords raised high, while sorcerers hurled bolts of dark energy from a distance, their attacks raining down upon them like a hailstorm of destruction.Lou-ra quickly used her forcefield to stop their attacks from hitting Nicolas and Skr'll. She could feel within herself that he mana was gradually depleting and it caused her to lose focus.Lou-ra forcefield went down as soon as the sorcerers summoned powers from their gem stone and used its scorching beam of light to break through.Nicolas managed to throw it off, but it took longer than it usually would, signifying that he was getting tired by each moment they spent fighting."Just give up" The jungle king began, "There's no way you can defeat my army and sorcerers, even if you're the true Demon King.
In the grand throne room of the palace, the air hung heavy with tension as Xeon, Demon Lord Abron's half-brother and the false Demon King, presided over a trial with his customary iron will. His throne loomed large and imposing at the head of the chamber, casting a long shadow over all who dared to stand before him.He stared at the man with contempt written all over his face. He had ruled for fine hundred years since he betrayed his half-brother, and judging such cases as petty theft in the king had lost its former taste that seemed to exhilarate him."Please explain what happened" Xeno instructed the four armed demon who had accused him.The four armed demon, obviously angry from what had happened, pointed at the accused demon with one of his arms."This thief broke into my store in the night and grabbed most of my valuables, including goods that I wanted to sell to a traveling merchant scheduled to pass through today" He explained.Xeno rested his head on his hand as he listened.
The dense atmosphere of the jungle echoed with the clash of steel and the crackle of magic as Nicolas, Lou-ra, and Skr'll fought for their lives against the relentless onslaught of the jungle people's forces. "My lord, they're relentless. We can hold on much longer" Lou-ra said as she struggled to keep the jungle sorcerers at bay.Their persistent attack with the harmful rays of the gemstone made things difficult for Nicolas and his entourage to move closer.The air was thick with the scent of blood and sweat, the ground beneath their feet wet with mud among other things that caused them their footing to be irregular.Soliders charged forward with swords raised high, their faces contorted with rage as they sought to overwhelm Nicolas, Lou-ra and Skr'll with sheer force of numbers. Sorcerers hung back from a distance, their hands crackling with dark energy as they unleashed a barrage of spells upon their enemies.Nicolas slashed through the air with his sword, his movements swift and
