Chapter 253 - The real demon

" That woman left and as she did, came my understanding for those gauntlets "

Shu added as blue chains would then fly out of his gauntlets, piercing into the creature whom's body immediately turned into nothing but skin and bones, as if those chains had sucked out all of its life force.

What was left of the creature would crash against the floor and Shu would simply close his eyes, rubbing his forehead as he tried to imagine the woman he saw, but he couldn't, he could only remember her beautiful voice and her figure.

" Why do you always turn your back to that thing? "

Bjorn questioned as the creature immediately regained its essence and attacked Shu at a speed who didn't have time to react to, being punched right on the center of his spine, which creaked it somewhat, as well as sending him flying into the air, cracking the ground and creating a huge explosion of air.

The creature would then grow wings, which popped out from his back piercing through his skin and muscles, creating wings that resembled that of an eagle, with those on his back he would fly after Shu, spreading its arms apart, immediately wrapping them around Shu the moment it got close to him, proceeding to squeeze before flying toward the ground, crashing against a forest whilst slamming Shu's head against the hard floor.

Soon after the creature would back away, the clouds of dirt dispersing as he himself was charging up his hands with energy, that would grow so dense, electricity would fly out of it, burning the wood of the trees around it, as well as the ground below.

Shu later stood, patting his shoulder as if to clean away the dirt he accumulated whilst crashing against the ground before his body began to flicker, and in a matter of a second he bursted in a blur of speed appearing in front of the creature whilst hurling a punch at it, but the demon like thing would mimic Shu, throwing its own punch, which would clash, causing a burst of energy and lighting that would level the entire forest.

" Fighting is fun.. "

The creature whispered as it was sent flying back due to the force of the explosion, whilst Shu himself was dragged back a bit

" Hmm "

The man would then disappear in a blur of speed, appearing above the creature which was still flying due to the explosion, only to be attacked by Shu who would punch it right in the stomach, slamming it down to the ground, before grabbing it by its wings, dragging it across the floor to later throw it up into the air.

But as soon as he did, chains flew out of Shu's gauntlets which would chase after the creature at a quick pace, stabbing through its bones and muscles, wrapping themselves around the creatures limbs before Shu tugged down, pulling the creature toward the ground, slamming him against it yet again.

Once it had crashed, Shu pulled it toward himself with a quick backward movement from which he would put his leg up proceeding to kick the creature right in its chest, breaking through its bones and organs, and as soon as he did the chains retracted themselves back into the gauntlets, leaving only a splash of blood all over the ground.

Though, just like before, the creature would heal its body, recovering but this time stronger than before, and like light itself the creature would boost himself off of the ground, using his feet and the strength from his calves which had grown, and from that sudden movement he would open his arms, hugging Shu tightly just like he did before but this time lighting was flying out from all over his body.

The lighting would once more destroy whatever was around it, which included Shu, the lighting burned through his close, and would eventually heat up the man's skin the more the lighting pressed against him.

" You're a weird thing, but.. "

A smirk would grow on Shu's face as blood slipped out from the sides of his mouth

" You're fun "

All of a sudden, a chill went down the creatures spine, from the looks of it and the way the demon like thing acted, it seemed to be newly born, and just like any other animal, it was at the moment sensing fear for the first time in its life.

In an attempt to run away from this fear, the creature would let go of Shu, jumping backwards as the lighting that came out of his body would stop, and it would then try to look around, trying to find the cause of its fear, but to its surprise, it was coming from where he ran away.

It would then turn its attention toward Shu, and as it did, it began to sweat in fear, taking a few steps back, trembling as the sweat fell from his face

" Wh-what is that?.. "

It questioned as from Shu's body an energy made out of smoke would spew from his shoulders and back, forming what seemed to be a demon, a large demon with king limbs, three horns and a completely black body, a body made out of energy.

All of a sudden this demon grew eyes, eyes made of of red energy, and just like it's eyes, it would grow red teeth, which it would use to smile at the creature, and if not for the fact that he was fighting Shu, he would be considered crazy for the fact that he was hearing a demonic laugh coming from the demon, a laugh so devilish that it hurt his newly created heart.

From the demon came killing intent, which placed even more fear into the heart of poor creature who at this point wanted to cry, but it was all in his imagination, there was no figure, there was no huge demon made of energy above Shu, but, there was surely a demon, and that demon was none other than Shu, who's creepy smile was covered in blood.

As Shu took steps, the fear of the devil was placed in the poor creatures heart, and all of a sudden, he was gone.

It had run away from Shu, it was too afraid to face him, what kind of sane person would fight against such a thing?

" That was odd "

Shu whispered to himself as he would then sigh, proceeding to scratch the back of his head, turning around and proceeding to walk back to where he came from.
