[Border Town]
Witnessing the feat of catching a projectile midair, Mia felt a dread in the atmosphere as she quickly snaps out of it and pulls another arrow
"Rain Arrow!!!"
As she shot up towards the sky, the arrow itself descends in an arch angle as it shines and splits to hundreds of arrows and rained down upon Belial
"Pity!"
As if mocking Mia's effort on damaging him, he reflexively raises both of his demonic wings and parried all the incoming the incoming arrows at an incredible speed, due to that feat not even one attack landed on him
Seeing this even Mia herself was flabbergasted as she sensed danger on a whole other level
"Im... impossible!"
When Belial was about to take a step forward to attack Mia, he suddenly sensed something from behind him which made him flinch a little
When he turned around Jack was already at a position where he would release a huge swing from his Sycth straight at him
With a huge swing gust of shockwaves vibrated across the square which forced Mia too take cover behind a wall
After few seconds Jack instinctually dodged his head sideways as Belial's attack was thrusted to his head's former position
This attack slightly grazed his cheeks which made him extremely irritated as he glares back at Belial who seems to be looking back at him in a calm manner with his golden eyes
Very quickly Belial turned around and attacked him with quick succession of attacks using his claws that turned completely black with a length of six inch, long enough to penetrate his body completely killing him if he got hit by an attack
Upon seeing this Jack Immediately did triple summersault as he moved around
When he landed he immediately crouched down below waist level and swung his Sycth upwards in an incredible precision and speed
With this attack Belial inavertly backs away as his front garment was split into two in the middle
"Hahaha! This is crazy... I only manage to destroy your clothes but I didn't even manage to graze your skin... This is really crazy... Hahahaha!" Laughed Jack dryly as he pants in exhaustion from his recent quick movements
"No actually you did well" complimented Belial
In the next moment Belial's clothes burned in flames and replaced it with a slender noble outfit fitting for a right hand of the demon king
As he did that Melfina jumps out from the shadows and attack him with all her might
"Assassinate!!!"
Peng!!!!
Peng!!!!
Peng!!!!
Without a thought Belial deflected all of Melfina's attack
Seeing her attack failed, very quickly Melfina disappears right in front of Belial and appeared behind him as she said
"Quick thrust!!!"
Peng!!!
The moment she thrusted her dagger a sharp crisp sound of hard object vibrated as her weapon collides with the latter's skin
"What!?!" Reacted Melfina
In reply to this Belial gave her a fact about demons
"You know... High ranking demons have a very tough skin" he said as he looked back at her in a very calmly manner
"Tsk!"
Right after that Jack quickly provided support as both Melfina and Jack engaged in a fierce battle against Belial who seems to be too much for an overpowered demon
From time to time Mia would provide cover fire as she shot out bunch of arrows straight to Belial through the gaps in the battle
But to no avail even those attacks was easily blocked by the demon while simultaneously fighting both Melfina and Jack at close quarter combat
In the end the fight turned to 3 v 1 and the former are the ones at the disadvantage from fighting Belial
As Belial smacked away Melfina using his wings, he immediately disappeared on the spot and appeared behind Jack as he punched him with full force straight to his sides
"Gaahhhh!" Screamed Jack in pain
With that Jack was sent flying as he crashed through walls after walls after walls only to stop when he crashed at the town's walls
Seeing Jack was punched away Melfina quickly made a dash which made her seem to disappear because of the speed but such speed was no threat to Belial as he calmly followed Melfina's movements with his eye
Appearing from above Melfina spinner horizontally as she slashed down her dagger aiming for the head
With a flinch Belial quickly grabbed a hold of Melfina's arm from above and slammed her down to the ground
"Gah!" Reacted Melfina as pain vibrated throughout her body
After that Belial lifted her body and placed her in front of him making her receive an arrow strike to the shoulder
"Ahhh!!!" Screamed Melfina in pain
Following that Belial snapped Melfina's arm which brought the latter so much pain that she was about to cry before throwing her to the side
"Such cowardice!" Complained Mia as she witnessed that Belial used Melfina as a meat shield and made her block Mia's arrow strike
In anger Mia pulled aimed another arrow as she launched it at an incredible speed
Diving that particular arrow by tilting his head, he countered it by summoning multiple black flame spear aiming at Mia, he combined it with gravity magic which made them really formidable
As he launched them the speed was so great that if you got hit by this attack you would die in an instant
Seeing this Mia used her perk of being flexible, fast, agile as she dodges all of the demons attack by going through many obstacles
As she dodged the barrage of attacks, she immediately took her aim only to notice that Belial wasn't there anymore and instead right behind her
In a heart beat Belial swipes down his claws at Mia which made the latter lose her arm
"Ahhhhh!!!" Screamed Mia in great pain
Right after that Belial quickly kicked Mia in the guts which made her fall to the ground writhing in pain as she held her decapitated right arm with her left arm
She was in so much pain that she was looking at Belial with an eyes that was full of despair
Throwing her arm to the side Belial swipes his claws to clean it from the blood of his victim
"Truly pity... You humans are all the same... You help each other just to make up for your own weakness, why can't you be more like us? We're strong individually so if we formed up then we will be invincible" said Belial in a mocking tone
I reply to that Mia spoke up as if to refute his words
"You... You will never understand humans..." She said in pain
The moment she said that the building in which Belial was standing at, suddenly collapses as a burly hand grabbed the archdemons heel and slammed him down
to the pile of rubbles
The one who sneakily attacked him was Luke who seems to have entered Berserk mode with a Mana considerably in comparison to a high ranking demon
"Don't underestimate humans" he roared
Just as he said that Luke smashed down his sword straight at the Archdemon so hard that it leaves fissure, quakes, and cracks with every strike it landed
One attack
Two attack
Three attack
------------------
The moment that Luke landed his tenth attack the ground was already so destroyed that a huge crater was formed with both of them at the middle while also leaving the vicinity around the crater to fill with cracks all over
Due to this attack some townspeople couldn't take any longer and ran in panic to escape from the intense battle that is currently held by the Archdemon and the Empire's Trump card
"Run! Run away!!!"
"We're gonna die at this rate!!!"
"We should take this chance to escape!!!"
"We're should we go? The forest? That place is teeming with monsters!!!"
"I don't know but it's better than here right?"
As the townspeople splits into two groups with different opinions, the intense battle itself was still in going as both sides continued to kill each other off
Amidst all of that only one opinion was clear after witnessing such destruction In the fight and the current events all over the world
"This is war... The world is at war!"
