[Border Town]
Seeing two silhouettes in front of the severely wounded sword saint and healer light mage, the Archdemon seemed to rise it's tension even more
What's more surprising is that for some reason he could feel some kind of nostalgia energy squirming around their aura
"I see... . . To think that there are still more people out there that are foolish enough to challenge me even though they've already seen my powers" lamented Belial
Hearing him Hibiki who was somewhat holding back his anger after seeing the condition of his companions, couldn't help but be irritated from Belial's words
Of course the reason is that when the fierce battle was going on above them, they immediately noticed the sudden influx and disappearance of high mana surge, thus they concluded that there is something going on the surface
Another part of that is because Kaido would've killed the mother and daughter pair on the spot if not for Hibiki's interference
Since the battle on the surface was getting intense, the ground above them collapses completely blocking the entrance thus making it hard for them to escape
Kaido would've have used his psychic powers to remove the obstructions but this can't be down for the debris was installed by an all rounder interference, cloaking and nullification magic making his powers useless in that situation
With all of these installed it only proves that the former inn's owner is really trying his best to conceal the fact of such an awful and taboo act for humans
Since the mother and daughter pair was spared from Kaido's wrath thanks to Hibiki, they are currently outside of town at a safe distance, they immediately headed there after Hibiki urged them to evacuate after they escaped the underground blockage... . . With this in thought it brought us to our current situation where both him and Kaido are having a stand off against an Archdemon
Seeing his companion's and the strength of the Archdemon, Hibiki decided to think his actions through in order for him to divert it's attention to himself, on the other side Kaido was thinking of how to extract some information regarding the demon king through the Archdemon while at the same time taking his time to beat the opponent
Like out of the blue the Archdemon himself spoke up first
"Well... . . It's kind of nostalgia... . . The other guy has a familiar aura that is similar to a demon while the other has an aura that is similar to our past annoying enemy" wondered Belial
Unknown to the Archdemon Hibiki is currently harboring the soul of the celestial race inside his soul pool causing his aura to be identical to them, while as for Kaido he is currently in hold of a cursed sword of the demons while at the same time fighting for control of his body against the self willed cursed sword
"Quite strange! Quite strange indeed! How about I kill you guys and bring your body back to the demon continent for further experimentation?" Suggested Belial
Hearing the word experimentation both Hibiki's and Kaido's expression turned sour and ugly for that particular word really brought bad ideas and imagination to them, the one who is affected by this is Kaido who have already experienced being experimented on forcefully
"No thanks! I've had enough of my share of experiments" replied Kaido
"You! I'll never let you do what you want! I will defeat you and end this war" growled Hibiki
"More than defeat... . . I prefer to slowly kill you and make you taste what true despair taste like" followed up Kaido
Upon hearing them even Belial was surprised to how much different is the person with red eyes and menacing look contrary to the person with a typical hero appearance beside him
It's like both Hibiki and Kaido were two sides of the same coin, one who bask in the bright and justified world and the other one who survived the harsh and cruel world
"Hahahahaha! Indeed both of you piqued my interest! I've decided... . . I will just cut off your limbs to make you unable to retort and bring you back... . . I don't need all of your body parts to experiment on you guys after all... . . Hahahahaha!" Stated Belial as he placed his hand on his head and started to laugh
Unable to endure any longer Hibiki jumped straight into battle and appeared in front of Belial in such incredible speed and following it up with a huge swing
"Oryaaaa!!!"
Because of this Belial was caught off guard and was sent flying away
In midair Kaido instantly appeared behind the Archdemon and caught him while completely restraining his movements
"What?... . . Instant teleportation?"said Belial in surprise
"Bastard! Don't go dying on me okay?" Asks Kaido while grinning evilly at the Archdemon
The same time he said that, he congrulated the fire elements in front of the Archdemon and concentrated at one point while holding it back to make a small but destructive attack
With that an explosion rung out with a heat that was equivalent to a molten lava and an explosion equivalent to a explosion of a active volcano
With this the Archdemon came crashing down with great force forcing it to create a huge crevice in it's wake
At the same time Kaido reappeared back to the ground, Hibiki immediately notified him about something
"Oi! There fire in your clothes" stated Hibiki
"Shut up" replied Kaido as puts out the fire
As they stare from the distance, they immediately saw a silhouette of the Archdemon who seemed to have taken to little to no damage at all
"Such fire power... . . As I thought! You guys are different" praised Belial
At the same time he stretched out both of Hands to his sides and formed two massive size of Dark Anima
"My turn! Dark Anima!!!"
With that he directed the attack to both Kaido and Hibiki from the distance
In reply to this two violent twirling wind wing like thing popped out behind Kaido's back and and intercepted the two dark Anima
In addition to that Kaido hurriedly touched the ground and manipulated the earth to form obstructions for the enemy's attack and caus it to lose momentum
Due to the sudden interruptions the two Dark Anima exploded between the distances causing debris and wind to rise up and obstruct their vision
Taking this chance Belial appeared between both of them and kicked Kaido away with great force causing him to be sent flying
"Guh!"
Clearly Hibiki noticed this and retaliated with series of swordplay to shred the Archdemon but in the end all of his attacks were blocked by the opponent's huge demon wings and got sent dying when the opponent struck his solar plexus causing him to gasp for breath
When Kaido managed to block some certain amount of force using his barrier, he decided to stand up again and assault the demon, but the moment he rises up the Archdemon appeared beside him like a flash and smacked him down back to the ground
"Gah!"
After that Belial immediately puts some force in it's feet and stomped down on Kaido
"Ahhh!" Reacted Kaido in pain
Gritting his teeth two violent wind from his back struck Belial upwards while following it up with continuous pounding
"Interesting... . . It's like his powers has a mind of its own" deducted Belial
In anger Kaido swung up his arm causing rift tides to rise up from the ground and assault him
Following that Kaido swung up his another hand to form a sudden ice structure that is capable of immobilising a person
With his command a sudden gigantic ice structure formed to assault the Archdemon but in the end it failed to immobalise it
"Dangerous! Truly dangerous! It's like I'm fighting against nature itself" stated Belial
"Tch!"
After evading the attack Kaido immediately sends out multiple wind slice straight to the Archdemon which made the latter to seriously dodge all of the attack
After that instantly appearing before Kaido, the Archdemon attacked the former with multiple attacks causing the former to be surprised as he crashed down on the nearest rubble
As this happened Hibiki quickly entered the fray as he attacked the Archdemon
