Hearing Derik's words Demos' lips curled up slightly and his rage vanished almost instantly. His chaotic aura calmed down and flowed back into his body as he sat down once again, staring at Derik in a friendly manner as if none of this had ever happened.
"Sole God? Pfft! This is a domain, not a realm… If I were to battle you seriously, I can kill you in this domain of yours if I wish to…" Demos chuckled lightly as he released his aura.
At this very moment, Derik watched in horror as Demos aura spread across his boundless domain like a plague, trying to subdue his control over his own world! He felt like he was bound by countless shackles from an unknown source which was also forcibly draining him of his mana!
AT THIS POINT, HE WAS LITERARILY CHOKING.
His eyes dilated as an illusion of a hundred-meter tall grim reaper, standing behind the angel of death with a massive black scythe in its hands and two pairs of black angel wings appeared and beads of sweat rolled down his cheek.
"You dare?! Bold! Very bold!!!" Derik bellowed furiously.
Bang!!
Bang!!!
Bang!!!!
Explosions occurred all over his domain as a massive volume of death aura violently split the ground and erupted from beneath, flowing into Derik, the green sky began to crumble and the domain shook violently as if it would crumble at any moment. An enraged Derik greedily took in all the death aura his domain could provide, gulping them down in one go as his body began to expand crazily.
30 meters
50 meters
70 meters
100 meters!!!
Derik suddenly rose in size, rivaling the grim reaper illusion in front of him. He threw his right hand to the side violently, causing a terrifying hurricane with just a simple movement. Each time he breathed out he released great gusts of winds that even made his army of the dead retreat even further. They all watched as their master reveal his true strength in this decisive battle.
"TO ME!!!" Derik��s voice sounded like numerous thunderclaps rocking the skies.
Bang!!!
A massive fissure occurred at that very moment, gigantic death scythe fiercely shot out of the ground and flew into Derik's hands. He grabbed the death scythe with two hands and raised it high into the air while a massive amount of death aura flowed into it. The power contained in that death scythe was one capable of splitting this little world of his in two effortlessly, even Demos who remained seated while staring up at Derik was slightly stunned by the amount of power Derik could muster, this was beyond his expectations.
Woooooosh!!!
Boooooom!!!
"Really impressive but in the end, you are still a mortal…"
Derik viciously hacked down at Demos location at a speed which released explosion sounds and shockwaves that threw everyone 100 miles around them away violently. The ground beneath their feet crumbled and caved in as the massive attack hit Demos' position.
"H-HO-HOW?!" Derik's eyes dilated, filled with confusion and disbelief as he felt like he has hit an unshakable mountain, preventing his death scythe from digging further into the ground. His figure and his weapon were too big for him to see Demos' tiny figure.
"Didn't I tell you? You are strong but in the end, you are still a mortal" Demos voice echoed from the hundred-meter deep hole created by Derik's attack.
Demos stood there, in the center of the hole, confidently preventing the death scythe from moving any further with a single finger. The sly smile on his face and glimpses of pride in his eyes.
"Begone!!!" Demos aura spread like a tidal wave, descending on Derik viciously, aiming to crush him entirely.
Puff!!!
"Aaaaahhhh!" Derik cried out in pain as he felt an invisible force bearing down on him ruthlessly. Before he could even resist, the force pulled him into the ground, forcing him to fall face-first into the ground.
"The gap between the mortal realms and the god realms is like heaven and earth, even ten peak grade gold realm masters will not be able to suppress a demigod realm master, even if he is at the low grade" Demos chuckled lightly as he stared at the shrunken Derik trying to get on his feet.
Derik was covered in blood as he struggled to get on his feet, who would have thought Demigods were this powerful? Derik initially assumed that the demigod realm was similar to other realms where one can fight on par with a higher realm opponent if he or she could find an external source of power to boost his realm. With the power he just displayed right now, Derik was confident of defeating a peak gold realm master even if he is at the silver realm! They why did he lose so easily to Demos.
"Even if my power reduces greatly, I have lived for millions of years and my experience is vast… My life ratings are also higher than yours, it's not something new creations can handle…. Even if I should meet a human demigod at a grade higher than my own, I will still effortlessly subdue such an opponent… The only ones worthy of my caution are guardian spirits who have lived as long as I have" Demos snorted lightly while speaking to Derik with hints of disdain in his eyes.
Hearing this, Derik fell into despair and cursed himself for coming up with crazy assumptions, he finally realized that his numerous victories in battles have affected his reasoning in some ways. How did he even consider defeating an ancient being like a guardian spirit in the first place? If Cyrus were to hear of this event, he will probably laugh to death! He finally realized the difference between the new inhabitants and the early creations like the guardian spirit. Even though he felt bad due to his defeat at the hands of the angel of death, he still felt excited by the little insight he has acquired due to this exchange, even if he can't fight against guardian spirits with his current power level, defeating a bunch of gold realm invaders shouldn't be much of a problem.
"Hehehe…" Derik chuckled lightly as he gazed at Demos' handsome face with determination blazing wildly in his eyes.
