"Keep him busy!" I called out, directing their attention to the need for teamwork. "Adrian, watch for his patterns, and the moment he's open—"
Before I could finish my sentence, Tony's dark mana surged once again, amplifying his strength and speed. The sudden burst caught the group off guard, and Tony seized the opportunity to break through their formation.
With a sweeping motion, Tony knocked back Shion, Kael, and the others, creating a momentary opening in their defences. Adrian, however, stood firm, his determination unwavering.
"Enough of this," Tony declared, a malicious grin forming on his face. "Time to end this little charade."
Saying that Tony raised both his hands in the air and shouted "Demonic Transformation."
A sinister energy emanated from Tony as he began a dark incantation, his form shrouded in an otherworldly aura. The air crackled with malevolent power, and a surge of dark mana engulfed him.
In a grotesque display of transformation, Tony's once-human appearance is contorted and twisted. His skin turned a sickly shade of ebony, and demonic symbols etched themselves across his body, glowing with an eerie red light. Horns protruded from his forehead, and his eyes glowed with an unnatural, malevolent gleam.
The transformation completed, Tony stood before the group, now a demonic entity. His stature had grown more imposing, and his demonic features exuded an aura of pure malevolence.
"Now shall we start the second round?" Tony said to others with a smirk on his face but he didn't receive any answer from the group.
Adrian, his expression unwavering, readied his sword, the azure glow contrasting with the dark energy that surrounded Tony. The rest of the group, though visibly shaken by the transformation, steeled themselves for the impending clash.
The demonic Tony unleashed a guttural growl, the sound sending shivers down the spines of those present. With a swift movement, he lunged forward.
As Tony, now transformed into a demonic entity, lunged forward with unparalleled speed, the group braced themselves for the impending clash.
Adrian, undeterred by the demonic transformation, met Tony's charge head-on. The clash of their weapons sent shockwaves through the air, the azure glow of Adrian's sword combating the malevolent darkness emanating from Tony.
The rest of the group, having recovered from the initial shock, rallied to Adrian's side. Shion, Kael, Evelyn, Emma, and Elera each took strategic positions, determined to confront this newfound threat.
Tony's attacks were relentless, his demonic claws slashing through the air with lethal precision. Adrian skillfully parried each strike, his movements a dance of steel and magic.
I gravely underestimated our foe.
Sigh.
"Mana eyes." I activated my [mana eyes] skill, the world changed around me, and I could everything more clearly and sharply. I could also see the mana cour of others and right now Tony's mana colour is eerie black colour.
That sent a chill down my spine!
I shook my head and started to search for all camera through my mana eyes, and within few seconds I scan entire main hall.
There are just 4 camera i found! It's Werid, am I missing something here?
'Anyway I don't have think for that.' I shook my head and turned my head in direction of Adrian.
"Adrian, focus on defending! We need a plan to counter his demonic form," I shouted, hoping that he would be me few seconds until I destroyed all 4 cameras
Adrian, with a nod of understanding, adjusted his stance, prioritizing defence over offence. The others, regaining their composure, joined forces, forming a protective barrier around Adrian.
Tony, sensing the change in strategy, intensified his onslaught. His demonic roars echoed through the hall, a testament to the dark power that fueled his relentless assault.
"Ha," letting out a sigh, I looked at my watch.
It was 5:54 PM right now.
They should be done Closing the gate by now.
Who am I talking about?
Miss Lillian and other heroes.
