-Fain's POV-
"Quick!" I shouted with him.
I quickly run backwards to find some narrow passages to limit their movements. After all, I will be quickly overwhelmed just with their sheer number.
Seeing me running, The demons didn't hesitate to chase me. The cave was shaking due to the constant activities happening. The rocks were trembling...
As I continue to run for three minutes... I finally manage to find where the narrow passages were located.
I dashed quickly while Kidd was still in his stealth planning to take as many as possible to thin them down when the confrontation starts.
I looked at the passage with sharp rocks protruding in the side. I smiled at the environment that was conducive for fighting multiple enemies. With this narrow passage... I don't have to worry about defending on different directions and being sneaked attack.
I looked towards the demons that stopped four meters away from me. They are looking at me as if I am a cornered rat. some had a cruel look, while some had an evil smirk fixed on their faces.
Just wait, til I wipe that smile of yours... I intended to attack them while Kidd will be sneaking behind them. Killing them silently one by one without being discovered.
I probe every one of them, and I was sure that they were all rank F.
This was the result of my probing earlier...
Name: Balanar
Race: Lower Demon
Degu Amount: F
STR: E
AGI: F
END: E
Abilities: Magic Power...
It was pretty simple really.
"You can't escape, cease you're futile resistance already and we will give you a quick death" One of them said with glee.
"If you think that you can provoke us with your mouth, then you have succeeded already." He said angrily.
All of them started releasing their blood lust while directing it towards me. "Kill him!"
Just like that, all of them charge at me at the same time. I readied my sword and adjusted to my usual stance.
I charge at the three in front me, due to my speed they didn't even manage to react before their heads rolled in the ground.
Looking at their companions that died quickly. Instead of being scared... they charge at me, more ferocious and aggressive than before.
One spear and one sword were coming towards me, I deduced their direction base on their trajectory. The sword was aiming on my neck while the spear was coming towards my chest. I made swift pivoting using my left foot while bowing my head to the dodge them. Although they look fast for others. For me, they were moving at a snail's pace.
After dodging the two of them, I gracefully made a slashing motion towards them. Just like that, their heads were separated from their body. My face was covered with black blood but it was not enough to hinder my vision so I didn't even bother to wipe it off.
The battle was making my blood boil, and a crazy expression was slowly creeping on my face. The sound of blood splashing, the feeling of sword cutting through the the flesh like a butter. The adrenaline knowing that one mistake can cause death. A hidden feeling inside of me that I didn't even know exist was being awakened as the time passed.
My instinct were taking over my body madly, my eyes became bloodshot. As I continuously butchered the demons with my crazy swordsmanship. Due to my unknown state... I didn't even bother to dodge their attacks. I just exchange injuries to injuries like a madman. I manage to take down three demons with one injury in every exchange.
"Fain are you crazy! what are you doing!?" Kidd who was silently taking the demons down couldn't bear it any longer and shouted.
After hearing his shout, I quickly exited my trance and my mind cleared. Seeing my body that was battered and full of wounds. I couldn't help but broke into a cold sweat.
Shit! what just happened just now!? I didn't even know why I did that. But, I had a weird recollection of it in detail. Could it be that I am a battle maniac deep inside? I was really considering this. After all, I lived in a peaceful environment throughout my life. So, it's not weird that I am unaware that I still love to fight till now...
"Sorry, I was just distracted." I shouted at Kidd who was now busy engaging with other demons openly.
He looked at me suspiciously but after that he quickly concentrated with his enemies. His light sword were piercing the demons chest with preciseness one by one.
I looked at the demons in front of me. They had a scared expression on their face. They were hesitating to attack after what just happened. I just looked at them speechless... I looked the sixty bodies scattered behind me.
So, that's the reason of their behavior. Seeing the remaining numbers... I used flashing dash with the combination of Z formation. Their heads flew in the air one by one. Each one of them had a horrified expression fixed on their faces before they died..
Kidd had also finished his fight by killing the mages with his light beam. He quickly run towards me with concerned face. " Are you sure that you're okay?"
He was looking at my battered body that were filled with injuries.
"It's okay I just entered on what is seems like adrenaline mode..." I told him some stupid excuse.
His mouth twitched slightly after hearing my response and looked at me with strange expression before saying. "Well, if that's the case then be it. I was just worried because you were smiling like a pervert while slashing the demons."
Just like that... I was drinking a healing potion to let my body recuperate more quickly.
Suddenly, a glimpse of fast approaching shadow was caught in my peripheral vision... My eyes widen and tried to warn Kidd.
"Kidd turn aroun-d!" I tried to push him but the black assailant was too fast.
*Argh!*
Kidd shouted in pain and quickly covered his severed shoulder to stop the spurting blood.
Looking at the assailant in front of us, I couldn't help but take a deep breath. He has a huge muscular body. His face was white as snow, he has a two curved black horns, a tail that was swinging madly and in his back was wings that were made of bones. He was holding a severed right hand with evil smile on his face. His eyes were deep crimson and he was looking at us with playful face that looks like someone who just discovered a new toy.
