Chapter 24 - Chapter 24: Demonic ritual.

The dragon was sending glares at me and I did the same. On it's roar, one of it's minions rushed and flipped it's tail towards me. I dodged easily and grabbed it's tail, then I threw it downwards but before it was a few meters away from me it spit acid on me but I wasn't damaged. Some of it's drops touched the ground and melted everything it touched. I used my heat-vision and fired through it's head killing it. After that I heard growls and all of it's minions came and smashed themselves on me. I retaliated and punched one's nose making it bleed, then I froze two of them and broke them instantly.

__________________________

Alright now, only three are left, I better get them fast or else more lives will suffer. I can't take that risk I need to end this massacre as soon as possible.

________________

The other three attacked me in sync. I grabbed one of them and sent him flying over the other, then I grabbed the last ones neck and with a bit of struggle I broke it. I then used my heat-vision and killed the other two that were dashing towards me. I cut them in half pieces. The big dragon was observing everything from the sky and didn't move a muscle. I flew straight towards it but when I reached near him he spoke.

______________________________________________________

Impossible how could a mortal have this much strength I should eliminate him quickly or else he could pose a threat to our ritual.

...

Ritual what kind of ritual are you talking about and who are you?

...

I am the general of the demonic army, I have sent this apocalypse to this world with my army to enslave the humans. It is our top priority to kill most of them and capture the ones with high will power to start the ritual and no one would dare to stop us.

.....

What do you mean by us? Who's responsible for this I demand answers.

....

Make me.

.....

As you wish.

After a quite talk, we engaged each other. This dragon was powerful, I got an idea of his strength when I took a hit on purpose. If I take damage for at least two hours simultaneously I could be over powdered. But I can't let that happen I want answers.

I dashed and gave a series of punches. He got the damage but his scales were tough but won't take much long to break. I used my heat-vision and fired hot beams on them.

Ghaaaa!

His scales broke and blood came out like a spring. I them punched on his head and broke one of his horns. Then I grabbed him by his tail and flew downwards with great speed breaking the sound barrier three times in a row. He threw his hot fire on me but it had no effect. When we reached near the ground close enough, I used my full strength and smashed his back on the ground creating a very big explosion with shockwaves.

________________________________

Soon the dust cleared and the dragon was laying down with his back and one arm bleeding. The impact was powerful, it threw everything far away in a radius of 200 meters. Then I heard the dragon speak once again.

khouag kho. (coughed)

Well I surrender my time has come to an end. You proved me wrong, so I want you to do a last favor. Please stop the Demon lord Gatholac.He's behind this. He wants to conquer the overworld and grow his empire. He wants human souls to perform a ritual to open big gates from the underworld to the overworld to conquer. The only way to stop him is to kill him once and for all. I'm the last general of this army their are two more. We are called the big three. My name is Shimmer. Once he gets all the humans that are now left he will perform the ceremony. To perform the ceremony or ritual he needs to remove humans from earth meaning sacrificing them once kidnapped.

Farewell!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

With that being said. Shimmer died and I left the place looking for more survivors. It took me at least six hours to look in each corner in the crystal empire. I didn't find anyone except a little boy who was unconscious with his parents. Luckily he and his mother survived but his father didn't. I took picked them and left the country, now their was only ashes, destroyed buildings and so on. About an hour later I reached back where I left the grand hunter army. The fight wasn't started. Now they were fully prepared and the survivors from the previous country also reached here. I took the child and the mother to the hospital and the doctors told me they'll be fine. Then I left the place and headed towards the outpost where the army was waiting.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Look Superman is back.

Wait did he finished the dragon.

Hell yeah he did, I got info from HQ the survivors have safely made it to our country.

Well this is our last chance we need to stop these things once and for all we can't take more risks.
