Chapter 795 - Japan Versus South Korea II

Adrian then told the tale of the demons that were punished back then as a result of them being troublemakers. Five demons of different abilities and strengths were sealed in weapons in order to contain their volatile personalities.

Unlike ordinary demons that balanced creation and destruction, the five demons of disaster leaned more into the destruction faction. As a result of becoming unfavorable to the goddess of life and the god of death, they were stripped off their ability to wield the arcane.

This should have been punishment enough but the five changed their existence to cope with their disability. Demons who lost their ability to wield the arcane managed to grasp other concepts of power. Even though each concept of power is limited to one, they easily mastered the concepts that they adapted and used that to exact their revenge.

One of such concepts that one of the exiled demons learned is carnage. He grew powerful for every battle that he participated in. The bloodier the battle then the stronger that he becomes. He has been dubbed as the Demon of Carnage due to his thirst for battle.

Numerous demons were needed just to seal the Demon of Carnage in the weapon that it used. The one who sealed the Demon of Carnage, and the four other is none other than the Asmodian Soul Summoner at that time. The Soul Summoner along with the envoys of life and death, separated the Demon of Carnage from his physical body and sealed his soul into the weapon that Blade holds now.

"Each sealed weapon is thereby termed as Cursed Weapons as the soul of the five demons in the weapons will try to take over its holder. The weapons themselves are powerful and unmatched but they must resist the control of the exiled demons inside of them." Adrian stated.

"Woah! I did not know that! Does that mean there are four other weapons like that!" Marlon stated.

"Is there a chance that the demon will fully takeover the wielder of the weapons?" Jade asked.

"There is a high chance as there have been accounts in history of people massacring an entire country with just one weapon." Adrian replied which made the other's attention focus back on the match.

[You have awakened the Demon Soul: Talim inside of your demon blade, Black Star.]

[Your current level of possession: 30%]

[All stats will increase by 15%.]

Blade is now different from earlier as his strength increasing is just the tip of the iceberg.

"Sword Art: Night Sky!" Blade muttered with his echoing voice.

With his sword art, Blade managed to block the Shattering Rain skill that Ain used. Blade's speed now matches the speed that Ain attacks. With their speed now equal, Blade used this chance to counterattack.

He used his strength to push Ain down to the ground. Blade did it with ease as he is now a couple stronger than Ain.

"Sword Art: Falling Night Sky!" Blade muttered as his katana got covered by his aura.

Ain could not block the attack just by using one foot which is why he decided to follow up with the other foot. Even with the added force, Blade managed to overpower Ain. Blade sent Ain crashing to the ground, but the latter managed to use a skill to soften his landing.

"Sage Arts: Flowing River!" Ain stated as his body got covered by his aura.

Ain crashed to the ground, but he only lost 2% of his health as a result of his aura cushioning his fall. Blade descended a few meters away from Ain. He did not strike his opponent with a follow up attack because he could feel that Ain was waiting for him to do that.

"I see. No wonder you are stronger than the Martial Artists that I have fought constantly in the eastern continent. You are not a Martial Artist but the superior job class above it which is Martial Sage. I am truly impressed." Blade stated as he filled his katana with his sword aura.

"You are correct in assuming that I am a Martial Sage but that does not mean that all Martial Sage's are equal. If you know that already then I should not hold back as well since you did the same." Ain stated as his eyes suddenly changed to that of the yin and yang symbol.

"Sage Arts: Worldly Pull!" Ain stated.

Ain then motioned in a flowing circular manner which sort of created a black hole like sucking force towards him. Blade tried to resist the pulling motion, but his body did not function like he wanted to. Blade's body got pulled towards Ain who is still building his aura and condensing it to the extreme.

"Martial Sage Arts: Order of Yin and Yang!" Ain stated.

Ain then created a circle below his feet which generated the yin and yang symbol. The moment that he did that, the world felt like it slowed down from the perspective of the audience. In truth, they are now seeing the perspective of Ain that activated the Martial Sage Art that used worldly energy.

"This is bad, Blade. You have called for me too late. You should have used me at the start of the battle if you knew that your opponent is a Martial Sage." Talim, the demon soul in the katana, transmitted via telepathy to Blade.

Blade did not retort the statement of the demon soul as he only just recently found out as well. Martial Sages are rare in the eastern continent. For a player to achieve this would mean that they have great ability.

The moment Blade entered the yin and yang circle, he got rained by numerous palms strikes by Ain himself. Ain looked like an asura that descended onto the world and punished one of the unworthy.. Blade did not stand a chance of even retaliating as he got killed under three seconds once he got inside of the yin and yang circle.
