281 Restraining

"Gaaaaah… you idiot! You are beyond redemption, aren't you? You are already revealing your trump cards before your opponent like a retard… you know what? Let me be a retard for once as well… let me tell you that your dreams are impossible, I can't initiate the overcharge function of your stupid core! There is a reason artificial processors aren't liked and mainly given to useless Overseers like you!" the buff demon hatefully announced as I was just less than a second away from shooting him, as I diverted it to a closer demon...

[ You have absorbed the blood essence of a 'Demon Guard'… ]

[ You have received 212,212 EP! ]

Since there was nothing that he could do, there was no need to get rid of him just yet. Of course, I couldn't just blindly trust him instead of doubting the possibility of a mind misleading trap, just acting this way to take me by surprise or something, which was why I still didn't plan on leaving him and his funny boss alone, even if they seemed harmless for now.

As such, after killing a couple more demons, I moved my crossbow back in hid direction once again, as I shot at total of 2 icicles which weren't as sharp as the one I used earlier…

Using the opportunity of him being close to me, and the fact that he seemed to be too weak to even stand up thanks to the Overseer's very, very smart move, I used my 'Telekinesis' as I pushed him to the ground, directly after the two icicles has went through his legs and froze them to the ground, as I shot another two which also pinned his arms with ice.

"Argghhhhh… this friggin' hurts! If you are shooting me anyway, you might as well have just shot my head instead of doing this…" The buff demon wailed as he complained nonsensically…

"Just shut up for now, I will get to that later, just be a good boy and stay pinned where you are."

After sarcastically replying to the buff demon's nonsense and killing 3 more demons on the way, I held out my halberd as I looked at the slim demon, also known as the scaredy cat Overseer.

'As for you…'

Doing the same thing to him felt a bit wrong, so instead, I decided that I might as well cut off his limbs instead before freezing what's left of them along with the rest of his body aside from his head to with ice elements.

After all, while he seemed to be unable to move thanks to being a scaredy cat, he wasn't weakened like the buff demon, and he was a bona fide third stage dark element user, one at least at my level of elemental control and possibly higher, since I was somewhat of a newbie in it. So, considering the possibility that he might get a sudden courage eruption for any reason, he could easily escape from the restraining ice and possibly deal a vital attack on me while I was in a critical moment of the battle…

So while I wasn't the fond of torture, it was best to restrain him this way, after all, while one could still use his elements somehow without hands at the third stage, you wouldn't be able to do as much as free yourself from as much ice as I was planning to add with no limbs, besides, he was a vile demon who was planning on massacring humans anyway…

"Stay away! Stay away I tell! You don't know who my father is! He is the greatest demon general that existed in this cursed domain, he will soon launch war against your filthy human forces, you… you better listen to me and become my pawn, yes… yes! Become my pawn and stop this nonsensical attack of yours and become my way to outside and the tool I will use to kill your filthy race, this your only path of survi...GAAAAH" the slim demon started blabbering as I appeared next to him, spitting out some stupid slaving away theory out of his retarded mind as I slashed away his legs as he fell to the ground…

'Sorry for mistaking you as a possibility not calculative Overseer, you are truly a retard Overseer.'

"Wha… what did you just do you human filth… you will regret this… you will totally regret this! How… how could you cut both my legs… you…" the slim demon started blurting once again as he stuttered, as dark smoke started coming out of his body, which seemed to be finally, what you would expect from your restraining target, resistance.

"Just stay still, this won't take too long." I ignored his threats as I activated the fire vein in the halberd to make the cut more clean and obviously to make sure my attacks won't fail due to his use of the darkness element.

The darkness element was in fact quite a versatile one, it had several different shapes and powers, some used it as a solidified matter that boosted damage and added some sort of corrosion, this method was the one that I had already experienced when fighting against the last Overseer…

The other uses weren't widely known as humanity' records of demons and the several unlucky humans who were actually bestowed with the dark attribute were very limited, but from my observation of how this guy started to use it, I also somewhat understood the method he used his dark element in

'Restraint…'

Thanks to the enhanced perception in my 'Sensory Area', I found out that he was actually using his dark smoke which was made by getting very tiny particles of dark elements tightly fitted to create some sort of a restraining cloud, it did seem like a very useful power but…

'That's not enough to stop me…'
