Chapter 733 Divine Retribution: Triumph Over Demonic Arrogance



The trash-talking had definitely clouded the minds of the two demons, and Reign had to admit, he kinda liked mocking the two like this. Maybe it was because he was a Nephilim, a being of balance that hated all demons, or simply because he was a bit of an ass, especially to alien races that wished to do nothing but enslave and kill all humans.

"I applaud your conviction and the fact you dare charge at me whilst knowing I am far too superior for the two of you to handle." Reign said as he blocked the attacks of the two demons and chuckled as the two angry faces of the demons were in front of him.

"But, trash is trash, no matter hard you might try to change." Reign opened his mouth and fired another beam of lightning at one of the demons who was forced to quickly duck in order to evade it, which left Reign open to using his left arm.

The other demon's eyes widened as Reign struck his temple with the pommel, forcing him to move to the side before he stabbed his foot with his other sword.

He didn't stop there and quickly slashed down at the other demon before striking him from the side with the other sword, which the demon also blocked, but he was completely open for the kick that connected with his jaw, sending his head back and forcing him to fall on the ground.

"Damn it, I was really hoping you would give me a challenge, I guess I was asking too much from some filthy demons."

"Even the other demons are stronger than you guys, bastards that only know how to sneak around."

"Even your stealth skills are trash."

"You are trash."

"Your entire tribe is trash."

"I bet even the progenitor of your tribe is also trash that got killed by some random guy who was in the same realm as he was."

The last words that Reign spoke made the two clench their weapons so hard that some of their skin burst open and they started bleeding. That was not all as the sky above them changed as clouds appeared and the sound of thunder was heard.

'Hmmm, is the progenitor perhaps a god?'

"You moron, don't speak like that, gods can all sense when they are being called, especially if one badmouths them!" Aethion said with some fear in his eyes.

"You even dared call a god trash, are you out of your damn mind?!"

'I guess I did go a bit too far.'

"Too far?!"

"Look at that, the demon god has heard you and is even looking for you, you'll be lucky he doesn't smite you immediately!"

Just as Aethion had said, the demon god who was the progenitor of the Stalker Demons did indeed hear Reign and was currently staring at him with anger.

"A pitiful human of the leveling realm dares say such words?" The demon god asked as he sat on his throne of bones.

"Your existence is an annoyance, disappear, you bug." The demon god said as he called forth his power and was about to strike Reign and kill him before stopping as he saw the divine bolt of lightning appear in his sight.

"Zeus."

"So you have chosen this mortal."

"Unfortunately, I care not for such things, disappear." The demon god was about to press his hand down when another hand caught him by the wrist.

"What?!" The demon god's eyes opened wide as his anger spiked.

"Who dares to!" The demon god turned his head to the side, only for him to freeze.

In his eyes, one could see fear.

"Trying to smite one of my descendants, how bold of you, little demon," Raziel said with a smile on his face as the demon shook in fear. Even the hatred his race felt for Nephilims wasn't enough to overcome the primal fear he felt when seeing a mere clone of Raziel.

"As punishment, an arm will suffice," Raziel said as his expression turned serious before he suddenly pulled his arm that held the demon god's wrist back, ripping his entire arm away.

"Next time, I will take your soul and destroy your entire race, so learn how to behave."

Raziel took a step and appeared 2 kilometers away, at the entrance of the giant hall the demon god was sitting in.

He glanced back and chuckled before disappearing from the spot. Only a few words lingered in the air as he disappeared.

"After all, you are just trash."

Unbeknownst to Reign and everybody present, they had just barely managed to survive being destroyed by the progenitor of the Stalker Demons, a peak God that was close to becoming an ancient god.

The clouds dissipated and the sound of thunder was gone, which made Aethion sigh in relief.

"Luckily, he didn't choose to smite you from existence, you can thank the mark for that, probably."

Reign nodded his head as he blocked another attack and grew serious.

He knew that there was nothing he could say to make the two even angrier as he had already dared to insult the ancestor of their entire race, which made them all turn berserk. Of course, they didn't enter a berserk state, as that was something only monsters could do, and the higher the level and realm, the more difficult it would be for a monster to lose all rationality and go berserk.

Reign sneered at the two as he sensed that they were now stronger, but that was only because they were using everything they had, all of their demonic energy, in order to boost their bodies to their limit so that they could deal with Reign.

He blocked the two as his lightning appeared around him, creating an armor made out of lightning that boosted Reign's power immensely.

He blocked the attacks before leaning back and letting go of his swords before appearing behind the demons in an instant. The two quickly spun to the side and attacked Reign who was already gone and appeared above them.

He pointed two fingers at them, and two lightning beams were shot at the two demons that managed to dodge the attacks, only for Reign's two swords to suddenly appear in front of them.

The two blocked the stabs, but because of how sudden the attack was, they were unable to block it properly, so both of their arms and weapons were right against their chests as Reign's swords did their best to try and stab through.

Reign once again appeared behind the two, who clenched their teeth before letting go of one weapon and using the other to strike the swords away before turning to face Reign who punched both of them.

His fists struck their weapons, and thanks to the thick mana armor that was around Reign, his fists didn't hit the weapons, it was the armor that hit them.

[ Compact Punch ]

A shockwave came out of Reign's fists as the two slid backward, only for both of them to widen their eyes and look down as a sword had penetrated through each of their chests.

The demons coughed out some blood before charging at Reign again, even the swords, which had managed to pierce through their hearts, weren't enough to stop them.

What Reign didn't know was that the Stalker Demons had two hearts, one was in the middle of their chest, while the other one was actually in the middle of their stomach.

Destroying one would hurt them and cause great damage, but as long as one of the two remained, they wouldn't die. They could even regenerate the heart they lost as the demon organ that stored demonic energy, just like a mana organ stored mana, was right between the two hearts and was connected to them.

Reign sighed before disappearing from the spot again. The two demons were completely relying on their reflexes at this point, and the battle was as good as finished in Reign's opinion. He was already more powerful than them, and without thinking of a good strategy to go against him, the two demons were fated to die, no matter how much they struggled.

In the next couple of seconds, the two demons were hit by his fists, they were penetrated with the beam of lightning, their legs were broken, their skulls fractured, and yet, they still didn't give up.

"Well, I don't want to waste any more time, so this is it for you two." Reign said as he suddenly grabbed the two demons by the head and used his soul manipulation.

In their berserk state, which had made them suffer numerous injuries and a great loss of demonic energy, the two demons were powerless to stop Reign from taking their souls out and capturing them.

He had of course not forgotten to use his soul manipulation and take the souls of all of the demons that had died so far, which were almost all of the demons that arrived.

Only 5 more were left alive, and they were injured seriously and would soon die.

As Reign let go of the two corpses that he held by their heads, he looked to the side where the peak Tier IV combatant that was tasked with getting rid of the demon that had the device was standing.

He nodded at Reign and showed him the device.
