The festival here was celebrated in order to mark the day when the w ar between the demons and humans ended . As the veil was erected .
But due to the biggest blunder . The veil is on its last knees . Thus once again demons have started entering the land on which humans reside
Parade of a hundred demons . This phrase comes from Japanese folklore . But instead of spirits and ghosts . A hundred rampaging demons came to visit the town .
Their eyes were the same filled with anger but it seemed that their anger wasn't in their control .
This area was just a part of a small town which was going to be crushed by the demons .
Phoenix :
I want you to defend us until we have evacuated everyone .
Phoenix :
I just want to ask one last time
Do you want to join the revolution.
Viva :
No we humbly hav to deny your offer as we have different goals from your organization
Phoenix:
Still it was nice to know you bunch .
We all noded our heads . It would be 1 hour before the rampage . And 1 hour of preparation for the parade .
Prepare traps . Prepare pit traps with spikes at the bottom .
Prepare Steel made ballista firing.
Balls of platinum . More mass more mana consumption.
More potion usage more sickness .
3,2,1 go .
Demons the size of 3 storey building came . 100 demons with varying sizes and morphology , species came
The traps triggered demons fell through . But their skins were so tough
they ended up breaking the traps . They climbed out without even a scratch on their bodies .
They dusted themselves and moved forward .
Before entering the town one of the demons left a loud roar which could be heard from a long distance .
Demon :
Jay Garrick , McElroy and his companions show yours
We were standing before a huge monstrosity . His face was like a fierce deity . He was smaller than blood demon both in mass and size .
Demon :
How dare you kill our brethren my brothers , sisters and their children who were just born .
I Araka an here to take my revenge.
For my brother's who died a warrior's death fighting you and those who didn't want to die .
Jay : I never wanted to kill them . But they started to attack us .
Swa ra ka :
When I went there I saw with my own eyes what you did . Decapitated heads , streams of blood flowing through. Because of the chief's sacrifice some of us survived or you would have slaughtered them all .
Before I would have said something else He stomped the ground we were standing on . It caused a huge shockwave . It threw off our balance .
On the floor demonic dogs surrounded us . They started attacking us . When one of them tried to but viva she rolled of the floor . But she didn't avoid the attack . Her hand had been bitten . Still considering her as a prey they attacked her but she was enclosed in a shield bunker .
Created by none other Mariel .
Jay :
I thought you were just a library pendant . Why didn't you just say you could fight .
Mariel :
Because you never asked master .
Enabling offensive maneuvers
Jay :
Mariel keep her safe .
Tearing part of her cloth she wrapped the wound like a bandage to stop the bleeding .
Swa-ra-ka :
Come fight me Murderer .
I threw the balls of platinum at him at an high speed he just caught it like it was nothing .
The balls he held spikes emerged out of it piercing his hand as it fell to the ground shattering 3 houses .
Jay : Rim .
Rim : Understood .
Jay transformed as he jumped high for a strike . He held his blade in both hands and with the power of fire his enveloping blade . He swung the blade . With all his might he swung thag blade . But instead he was caught by him and in his hands .
Swa-ra-ka :
You defeated my brothers with this puny power .
It seems that I had overestimated you greatly .
While he let his guard down Jay was preparing something . Things were about to get heated . As slowly he gathered large amounts of heat in his hands about 350°C and conducted it into Swa-ra-ka's hand burning it . Due to this hs hand opened Jay fell and touched the ground unlike the blood demon .
Swa-ra-ka smashed his weapon targetting Jay but unfortunately his weapon was made of iron .
Jay held the weapon and broke it down to pieces .
Swa-ra-ka ,:
So you're not that puny after all .
He pulled out another weapon made of Mithril .
And targeted Jay .
He swung thag weapons slant . Ad very precisely cut some of the houses . Using the frequently marketed and used Hermes shoes Jay ran up the blade . Using he same experience as last time . But he flipped the blade so Jay fell off . But he still caught the blade .
Enraged he spun his blade with high speed . And due to the centrifugal force it spat Jay upwards .
Tossing the boots in the inventory. Now he rose above with the art of flight like a rocket . And with the spear once again descended like a falling meteor . This was an unavoidable hit for Swa-ra-ka. It just needed 2 seconds of impact time .
Now it needed 1.5 second of impact .
Now 1.2 sec time but suddenly out of nowhere there was an explosion . And it sent Jay flying outside the town .
What happened?
For that we need to slow down the time frame . During 1.2 sec time
1.260 sec No changes observed .
1.250 sec Something was observed but isn't clear .
1.247 sec Something is in contact with Jay . It looks like a burning plume
But it was shaped like an arrow .
And BOOM .
Now outside his companions fended for their lives . McElroy was fending with a pack of demon dogs while Mariel was teaming up with Viva looking after each other's backs .
Viva may seems defenseless but she has mastered the art of mana combat .
A special technique passed down from an unknown family, unknown person to disrupt the mana flow in the body of living organisms. And internally damaging them
By injecting them with a string flow of mana in their bodies . Thus the natural flow is distorted .
Jay and McElroy were not taught this technique as she deemed them unworthy even though if they wanted they could learn it easily .
McElroy saw Jay getting shot by the plume and he searched for Phoenix .
He knew Jay would be fine and would return .
McElroy:
Cleft where are you show up .
Cleft :
Oh you found me . Quite easily didn't you .
He was on the rooftops of one of the building farthest from the demon attack . He held a bow made from 2 different materials . It had no string attached to the bow .
One half was made of silver while the other was made from unknown material .
McElroy :
Why are you doing this , this is a trap isn't it .
Cleft :
It was not my intention to harm you as you helped me . But you see orders are orders .
