Chapter 15 - Sarah's Strength

Looking down at them while flying above the demon seemed satisfied as it could not wait to kill these humans and collect a good prize..

Being the children of such powerful and influential figures Ray, Leo, Amy, Alissa and Kayla all had a bounty on them as killing them would get rid of future powerhouses and also earn the demon a demonic seed

Demonic seeds are used for demons to allow their bodies to take in and control more demonic energy though using demonic seeds can allow a demon to take in more demonic energy not all demons can continue eating demonic seeds to get stronger as when a demon reaches its limit no amount of demonic seeds can help it improve

As they looked at the demon, They all felt an emotion which they had not felt in a long time.

Fear

Leo could not move and even if he could they didn't think he would be able to defeat the demon

Having the strongest one of them being weak the others had to fight the demon themselves while trying to protects Leo at the same time

Looking at the demon the first to react was Amy knowing that she can not give the demon a opportunity to attack, Amy quickly dashed at it

Using all her strength she punched at the demon. Seeing the punch heading its way the demon didn't even try to dodge the attack it instead caught the punch with its hand

The demon looked at them all with a smug smile on its face

"Is that it, when you came charging at me I expected something cool.. That was a bit anti- climactic"

The demon said as he pushed Amy away. Landing on her feet Amy was dumbfounded

'All it took for him to stop a punch with all my strength was a single hand'

"Hey before you die I thought you should at least have the pleasure of learning the name of your killer, My name is Axel after I kill you today I will be very famous and rewarded handsomely for it" Axel said as he kept on chatting away

Not seeing any of them as a threat Axels guard was not up

While busy chatting away suddenly Axel felt something heading for his face he quickly moved his face but was not fast enough as in the next second blood could be seen coming from his cheek

"Who done that" Axel said angrily

He had not expected any of them to have actually been able to hit him even if he wasn't prepared he was way stronger than any of them

Looking at where the arrow had come from he could just see a plain looking girl

'Huh who's that'

Leo, ,Kayla Alissa, Ray and Amy seeing who had managed to damage the demon were confused the person who they thought was the weakest amongst them had managed to do something Amy had managed to do

'How isn't Sarah weak' Amy thought while dumbstruck that Amy had damaged the demon

Sarah quickly wanting to end the fight activated [Air walk] and in a speed so fast that the others couldn't see was behind the demon with a dagger in her hand slashing at its neck

Sensing that there was danger Axel quickly turned around and dodged he quickly hardened his claw and made a slash but hit nothing but air

Looking around Axel could see Sarah but something was weird her hair was floating her eyes were glowing green and the Air around her looked like a hurricane she was also flying

Suddenly multiple [Air bullet] were shot at him he tried dodging them but they followed him

As they hit him they caused holes in his body and blood could be seen coming out luckily for Axel they had not hit any vital points and he was still alive but heavily damaged

Realizing that if he didn't go all out he would die Axel activated his strongest weapon

[True Form] immediately a horn started appearing from his head the clothes he was wearing had started to rip and his skin had turned purple and had hardened he was immediately filled with strength and all his injuries had healed

[True form ] was a ability which all demons possesed it allowed them to use the power of all the demonic energy in their body giving them a huge power boost which allowed them to use strength a rank above it was also like a second life as if a demon was on the verge of death and it activated [True Form] all its injuries would heal

Though [True form] was a powerful ability after using it a demons strength would be decreased by a whole rank permanently and they would have to regain their strength with time

While using [True form] the number of horns on a demons body would indicate how much strength he had gained

Seeing that the demon had activated its [True Form] the others realized they had to get away as even a stray attack from Axel could kill them

"Hahhhaa, now what are you going to do, You're pretty strong but now that I've activated my [True form] you can't defeat me" Axel laughed

Sarah just kept on looking at him and continued dashed to him again

Previously when they had been fighting it had been a one sided beating from Sarah but now the fight seemed to be even

As they fought Sarah had started to get damaged and was struggling to hurt him with his hardened skin

Sarah kicked him back and had made two huge tornados behind him as Axel slammed into the tornados he could feel it piercing through his skin

'She seems too strong I have to end this now' Axel thought as he suddenly summoned purple flames

As the flames went towards Sarah before they could touch her body the wind around her had extinguished the flames

'It seems that elemental attacks won't work I have to finish this using my fists' Axel thought

Axel let out a punch which had finally connected

Sarah was sent back but seemed unharmed that was until she spat out a mouthful of blood

Ignoring the blood Sarah immediately started attacking again

'She seems to be getting weaker her speed is slower and the air around her is starting to calm down it seems this ability she is using has a time limit' Axel thought

Sarah started getting more damaged until finally Axel hit her back and she passed out

'I have to end this now the backlash from using [True form] is already starting to affect me' Axel thought

Seeing that Sarah was passed out Leo and the others realized they had to do something

By now Leo had regained some strength but was nowhere near his original strength

'We have to distract him until his [True form] ends then we can kill him while the backlash hits him' Leo thought

Demons were something that Leo and the others were taught about at school and such they knew that [True form] had a time limit

'I have to escape I can feel that the backlash will get me at any moment, I shall get these kids another day'

Yet before they could even attack, Axel had stumbled

Seeing how weak he was looking not wanting to waste the opportunity the others had dashed towards Axel

Yet before they could kill him Axel had pulled out a device and before they could even react he was gone

'Shit he got away' Leo thought as he received a message from the system

[You have exited an artificial dungeon]
