Chapter 495 Shadow And Blackie Finish Their Battle

Name:Is this really a Game?! Author:
'Arrogant weak little humans.' The demon thought as he evaded another attack from Blackie before using his buckler to block Shadow's dagger.

The demon then quickly moved his buckler to the side before using it to hit Shadow in the face, interrupting his next attack and making him back off. The demon wanted to use his dagger and stab him there, but he was unable to as Blackie had appeared next to him and attacked once again.

'Annoying bastards, how are they still fighting like this?' The demon asked himself as he took a step to the side and let Blackie's claw swipe next to his face before going for a stab. His hand didn't move, however, as shadowy tentacles had wrapped around it.

The demon channeled mana and broke out of the entanglement before dodging to the side as Shadow attacked.

The battle had been progressing the same ever since it began. The demon would block, parry and dodge, while Shadow and Blackie did the same.

Shadow's ability allowed him to get an edge a couple of times as he was able to limit the demon's movement. However, it was still incredibly difficult to land a hit on the slippery demon who obviously had more experience than them.

Blackie and Shadow charged at the demon, Blackie used his black lightning that seemingly got deflected by an invisible shield around the demon while Shadow used his tentacles in order to grab the demon, but the tentacles simply coiled around the invisible ball of mana around the demon before he moved away.

The ability of the demon was a tricky one, it allowed him to create an invisible shield of mana around him, he could also change the shape and size of the shield, making it hard to guess where to attack sometimes.

The demon was fast, faster than Shadow and Blackie and he was able to fight to a draw against the two of them. Even though none of them had any noticeable injuries, it was only a matter of time before one of them would slip up and get injured, which would completely flip the tables and give the opposing side an advantage.

The demon's poison worked in a similar way that Shadow's darkness did. The biggest difference was that, unlike the darkness that would corrode the inside, the poison of the demon would first start with the flesh, muscles, bones, and then the insides.

One could of course use mana to suppress the poison, but it would be hard to continue fighting at full strength after that.

Both sides knew that which made them very hesitant to try out anything risky during the battle.

Suddenly, the demon charged at Shadow and Blackie. Blackie stood in front of Shadow and readied his black lightning as Shadow had a smirk on his face.

'You've used the same movie too many times, both of us have already memorized all of the different attacks you can do when charging, this time, it will be game over for you.'

The demon had charged at Shadow and Blackie a couple of times now, each time using his ability in order to get an edge.

His ability allowed him to not only block attacks, but he could also push enemies away by using it.

It seemed that it didn't matter how large the enemy or object was, if they were too close to the demon, the shield would push them away.

The demon could also use the shield to form a sphere around him and then charge at enemies, the shield would keep the demon out of any harm while forcing the enemies to dodge or to be bounced off of it.

There was also another option for the demon, which was to envelop his body with the shield, which seemed to give him more defense, but was very hard to keep up as the demon started panting after only using it for about 20 seconds.

The pushing power and the defense of the shield were probably stronger the more mana the demon poured into it, which definitely was not low.

Blackie and Shadow had almost been hit a couple of times as the demon had used his ability in the three different manners previously. But now, now they knew everything and were ready for him.

Shadow first used his ability to summon tens of shadowy tentacles wrapped around the shield. They were being thrown off by the shield, but more and more appeared and started wrapping around each other, which made them much more durable and harder to push away.

Blackie then used his lightning on the tentacles, which quickly started dying, but the shield started getting damaged quickly as well, which would increase the mana necessary to keep it up.

The two were planning on destroying the shield first, if they could force to the demon to use up most of his mana, then they would definitely be able to win.

As the tentacles stopped the demon from approaching them, Blackie went near the demon and started clawing at one place where the tentacles weren't present.

Shadow was using a lot of his mana to keep up with the destructive power of the lightning and summon more tentacles in order to keep the demon bound.

Suddenly, he could see a smirk emerge on the demon's face from the small area of the shield that wasn't wrapped with the tentacles. A bad feeling quickly arose as Shadow quickly yelled out.

"Blackie, get back!"

It was too late, however.

"Repulse." The demon spoke as the shield suddenly exploded and sent Blackie and the tentacles flying backward. The tentacles were ripped out from the ground and dissipated in the air as the demon suddenly moved.

"Repulse." He created a small shield behind and underneath his feet. A small explosion happened as the demon appeared above Shadow in an instant.

"This is the end for you." The demon said as his dagger fell down on Shadow, only for Shadow to disappear as he had teleported.

"I already thought of that." The demon spoke as he used another repulsion and appeared next to Blackie who was a bit roughed up from the explosion of the shield and was unaware of the demon who had appeared at his side.

The demon grabbed his dagger in a reverse grip before attempting to stab Blackie in the head.

Swish

A powerful arrow suddenly hit the demon from the side, it struck the shield that the demon had created at the last minute. The shield managed to block the arrow but broke in the end. The small pause that the arrow made was enough for Blackie to clear his head and attack the demon while Shadow appeared behind him.

"Now this, this is the end, you bastard," Shadow spoke as his two daggers penetrated the demon's back. Blackie bit the hand that held the dagger and the sound of bones breaking could be heard as the demon shouted out in pain.

In another place inside the base, Wolf and the axe-wielding demon were staring at each other while a smile was plastered on each of their faces. The two were both wounded, and not slightly.

The battle between them was quite a close one, and if not for Laura who was helping Wolf out, he might have lost.

The two charged at each other with full force as Laura fired a beam of demonic energy at the demon, hitting his shoulder and making him falter for a moment.

Wolf used it to his advantage and stabbed his sword through the stomach of the demon, only to find out that his sword only barely went inside and that it was now almost impossible for him to pull it out.

"Gotcha." The demon smiled as flames erupted around him.

[ Flame Dominion, Demonic Burst ]

The flames suddenly turned scarlet as the demon's own blood got mixed in with them. In a mere moment, the flames gathered to Wolf and the demon before a huge explosion took place. Wolf was sent flying back, his sword still stuck inside the demon's stomach.

The latter grabbed the sword before relaxing his muscles and pulling it out.

Suddenly, his eyes widened as flames appeared on top of the sword before it shone brightly.

The sword he had pulled out was not the one that Wolf had used during their fight, but a new one, one that was obviously of much lower quality.

[ Weapon Art, Destruction ]

The sword suddenly broke into pieces, a huge amount of flames exploding from inside of it. The demon was hit point blank with the explosion, which sent him flying just like Wolf did previously.

Compared to Wolf, however, he also had numerous cuts on his body as the shrapnel from the sword cut his flesh and embedded itself inside of him. Before the demon could even try to gather his thoughts, a thick beam of purple energy appeared in front of him before penetrating straight through his chest.

A piece of his heart was struck and gotten destroyed by the beam.
