Demon Emperor's Rise: Becoming The Greatest Villain For My Daughter



The Swinefiend saw its partner getting killed like that, so it decided to fight at long range. But how could it be done?

It looked at the trees beside it and knew what it had to do. Using its brute strength, it pulled off two trees with its pair of hands and swung the one with its right hand vertically.

Ragnar's eyes widened seeing that, not because he might get injured, as this won't do anything to him, but at the thought of Ravenna, who was near them, getting injured by the aftermath. 

He quickly turned back and went to pick up Ravenna. Fortunately, he was fast enough to pick her up, but at that moment the tree had already landed, causing a shockwave on the ground and eventually making a ripple on the soil, which destroyed the surroundings.

Ragnar used that force to propel himself forward and leave the site. He again dropped Ravenna on the ground and thought. 'I have to take this fight far away from her.'

Ragnar quickly dashed forward and arrived close to the Swinefiend. At that time, the Swinefiend swung the other tree horizontally, making Ragnar leap in the air. Then, straightening his body, he shot down at the Swinefiend. The Swinefiend raised its arms to defend against Ragnar's attack but failed to do so as both of its arms were cut off.

However, Ragnar saw this as a failure too, as he wasn't able to cut off its head. 'Shit…its arms are so hard.'

Still, Ragnar didn't even try to take the time to rest; as soon as his feet landed on the ground, he rotated and slashed the Swinefiend's nape. 

The Swinefiends weren't known for their speed; instead, they were known for their raw strength. So, the Swinefiend wasn't able to defend itself, and half of its neck got severed.

Ragnar's eyes glowed as he felt he was about to succeed in defeating his nuisance like enemies. He went for another swing, this time for a killing blow.

But Ragnar's scythe didn't land on the Swinefiend's neck as it got blocked by an identical scythe just like the one on his hand, making Ragnar very surprised. 

He looked carefully and saw it was none other than the Gorebuzz. 

'How is it still alive!? I was sure it did- ' Ragnar wasn't able to finish his thought when suddenly he felt a tingling sensation on the back of his head. Without looking back, he swung his scythe behind him, clashing against another Gorebuzz's scythe. 

'Huh!?' Ragnar was beyond shocked by this sudden turn of events, as he was having a hard time understanding the current situation.

Still, he shoved both of them away by sheer force and then distanced himself. But the two Gorebuzz followed behind him, pinching him both ways. 

Ragnar had to use [ Counter ] as efficiently as possible to keep himself unharmed. 

Their clash continued throughout Ravenna's surroundings, but it didn't reach her, or Ragnar didn't let it come near her. Ragnar was also thinking about the Swinefiend who might have fully healed by now.

However, throughout this whole fight, Ragnar noticed something. He might be having a hard time fighting them, but that was because he was outnumbered. However, he wasn't having a hard time overpowering them in strength. 

'Don't tell me I am fighting the same Gorebuzz, but it has now divided itself in half and its strength has also halved.' Ragnar came to a sudden realization, which made him calmer.

Gorebuzz had an innate ability that wasn't that special, as most insect-like demons in the Demon Realm had this. This ability was called self-cloning. Most of the insect-like demons could make clones of themselves by separating them.

Ragnar's face quickly darkened as he noticed something else. 'Looks like I am outnumbered again.'

"GRAA!" The Swinefiend rushed at him, who was fully healed now. It didn't care about the trees it clashed against, as only rage and brutality were written on its eyes.

'I guess I have to just hold on.' Ragnar immediately made a decision, as he knew it would be a hard battle to win. So, he decided to  keep himself alive and not go for any kill.

But that thought also didn't last a second as someone arrived at the scene, and it was none other than Lagnir. 

Just as he arrived, he jumped straight into the rushing Swinefiend, catching it by surprise. Lagnir dug his claws inside the Swinefiend's eyes and the area around them.

"Graww!" The Swinefiend screamed again in pain after losing its eyesight.

Lagnir wasn't done with that, as he started clawing its face like a beast. The Swinefiend couldn't endure it anymore, so it punched upward and successfully landed its punch on the wild Lagnir's face.

Lagnir flew in the air while also healing his broken face. With the fear he jumped earlier on, the Swinefiend grew more.

This nature was inside Lagnir's heart, as when he would see someone stronger than him, he would always escape. This was how he and his race survived until now. They wouldn't pick an unwinnable fight. So, he acted out of his way like that, like a feral beast, as he had to help his lord in any way possible.

Ragnar didn't know how many emotions he felt today, but he knew it was more than he would ever get as the plan he was brewing in his mind right now got torn apart after seeing Lagnir in such a situation.

Ragnar gritted his teeth as he also started to lose patience. 'Screw this… I will take this chance and completely kill this Gorebuzz in front of me. I seem to have noticed that the Lord killed demons by aiming at their hearts or by severing their heads. I guess I will have to try this and finish it quickly.'

Ragnar used [ Blurry Dash ] and arrived before one of the Gorebuzz. He didn't use this technique frequently as he wanted to use it as a trump card to take them by surprise, which he succeeded in doing. 

He swung his scythe at its neck. The Gorbuzz, in panic, somehow managed to deflect it in the nick of time.

Ragnar didn't get sad that he failed, but he confirmed something after seeing the panic. 'So, the neck and the heart are the way.'
