My eyes gaze over the creature before me when I suddenly hear Sky's voice, along with all the air on my body sticking upward, "This…..he is strong…very strong. He is practically creating mana!"
If I could see what Sky is seeing, I would see mana flowing like a river from him. No normal being would create this and this is Sky's first time seeing such a thing, so she is shocked beyond thoughts.
That's when I suddenly see a warning, a warning I haven't seen in 5 years.

That's when I see an evil smile crawl onto his face, the muscle and flesh on his head beginning to shift. A dark voice echoes from his throat as he asks, "Who are you? You are…powerful, I might actually be able to have some fun. Although I should thank that puny thing which was somehow able to summon a portal for my father."
His face extends as gray fur grows across his morphing skull. Moments later, the movements stop, revealing a goat head on a human body. His lips curl, revealing demonic teeth in a grin, "So let's fight! However, get rid of your minions as they would just get in the way of our tussle."
I stare at him with constricted eyes as I watch his clothes, which once were a simple black suit, transform into gold plated armor, coating his whole body in yellow light. I eventually sigh as I shake my head, a smile escaping onto my lips, "So, you a demi-god or a god? Either way, you were sent to do daddy's work from what I heard, must be fun huh?"
I had heard him griping as he exited the portal, being able to hear him thanks to my Continental Class hearing.
His smile grows wider as a grey fireball appears in his hand, "Careful little fly, or you will get burnt. But due to your power, I'll answer you that. Currently, I am a demi-god as my father won't allow me to rise to a god. Only one king can rain over his hell, more than one becomes problematic."
I wave my hand, the box appearing before me as I quickly change into it, "So what about all the other gods supposedly reining over hell? They just get wiped?"
He giggles slowly before laughing into the sky, as if he just breathed in laughing gas. A few moments later, his neck snaps back towards me as he speaks in a crazed tone, "Let me open your horizons little fly, there is not just one hell but thousands. My father happens to just rule over one of them!"
A heatwave flows over me as a ball of bone grey flames flies down towards me. I wave my hand as I store the container, quickly equipping my mask. I launch backwards, soaring through the air before stomping my feet into the ground, dust and dirt flying as I slow to a stop. The fireball explodes as grey flames fly everywhere, as if confetti on a birthday.
Anything they touch burns to a crisp, giving me a feeling of slight surprise as it truly sinks in, 'This isn't a regular person, he is a demi-god. A being on another level. I need to go all out if I'm to be even with him. Besides, I already defeated one before…but the one before was poorly trained compared to this man…he has experience."
My face turns serious as I quickly yell, "Distract him!" And immediately begin to contemplate my next move, dodging grey fireballs left and right.
My shadow soldiers lunge at him as they all attack him, launching hundreds of attacks within seconds. He laughs as he dodges each attack, until suddenly, he gets smacked by a large tail. He flies into the ground, flying into the dirt before he stops himself with a crimson blade in his hand.
His fiery expression cools slightly as he stands up, brushing some of the fresh dirt off of his armor before looking at Yogan. Yogan is the one that had attacked him, having taken the chance of an opening.
"That thing is pretty powerful for a mere insect. It's impressive. So is that big one over there. Sadly, I don't want these guys interfering anymore!" And with one huge swipe from his sword, another notification appear on my interface.

I quickly float into the air as a ball of light drops from the tip of his blade. It slowly floats to the ground before just barely touching the surface. Moments later, a massive wave of light bathes my soldiers as I feel them disappear before suddenly entering my shadow, a debuff entering my vision. I look at the icon, it has a skull along with a red circle and line covering it, I quickly click on it as a description pops up.

I am about to speak when a flaming sword comes flying towards me. I quickly spread a set of wings from my back as I dodge it, the blade disappearing from view. His smile grows yet again as he begins to chuck fireballs and swords at me, "I have consumed enough souls to fill several planets! You think I wouldn't of encountered your type of mages before? Granted, this is a new version of the ability and I had to guess."
I clench my teeth as I realize that I lost one of my assets, being forced to dodge each projectile as fast as I can react, my moves closely scraping by as he revels in my dodges with excitement. I can barely keep up with his attacks as each one flies towards me, even when only focusing on dodging.
Then, after a few minutes, my mind solidifies on one thing, 'I need to be faster. If I can reach a certain speed, I can close the distance. Perhaps using shadow morph to change my form will give me more agility. Well…here goes nothing! Shadow Morph!'
The shadows around me shift and turn as they gather across my skin. The darkness layers over and over as it interweaves with itself. Bones begin to crack as my legs bend, turning more animal like as my body becomes thinner. Moments later, another attack comes flying towards me as he yells in frustration, "I want to see you do more! At least be faster if your only going to dodge!"
Another massive fireball falls from the sky, but my shadowy figure flares at him with it's purple eyes as a row of demonic teeth reveal themselves on my now smoothly curved face, "You want speed? You got it."
I push off with my legs as my thin tail whips behind me, keeping me balanced as I swiftly escape his attack. He freezes for a moment before becoming even more excited, "A necromancer and shapeshifter? You didn't disappoint me! Things are getting interesting!"
Suddenly, a flurry of swords drenched in grey flames soar towards me. But I don't even blink as I dodge each blade, flipping and twisting like an acrobat. I gracefully float between the blades, thousands of them flying past my agile figure as grey flames rain from the sky, dancing with death at each turn.
