" Did you send a humanoid demon to purgatory?" I ask the king.
" Yup, specifically I sent Askan." the king says.
" Woah he's pretty strong isn't he. I heard last time you let him loose he almost destroyed a solar system." I say to him.
" NoTe will fight way stronger people than him. He couldn't compare to me and you in the slightest." The king says.

The demon rushes in with a lot of speed. His spear is sharp and precise. I'm barely able to dodge in time. I was only able too dodge because his spear is obvious. The demon is strong his spear isn't. I back up and let him go in for a thrust attack. I reverse his power on him and flip him on the ground. The demon is all black with a white spot in the middle of his face. It would be harder to see him if the white spot wasn't there.
He gets up clearly mad that I flipped him. I could probably make him destroy his own spear. If he feels like he can't kill me with the thrust. He will try a slice attack. I can break it from there. Could I kill him though? Do demons die in the underworld? Damn I should've asked them that.
The demons keeps sending attacks at me but without any mana behind them. They probably sent him after me with that in mind. I hit the ground and make it shake. That throws off his attack. I crush some more of the ground to make dust in the air.
The dust blinds the demon for a second which is all I need. I hit him with a throat punch to stun him. He immediately swings downwards with his spear. I break it and kick the tip at him. He dodges and I hit him with a 12 to 6 elbow strike. A knee strike to the chin then 2 jabs to the chin. Then a spinning back kick to the solar plexus. All that sends him flying into the wall with a spike on it. He bleeds a black blood then he evaporates. I'm sure he's going back to go see his master.

" So how was it fighting NoTe?" I ask Askan.
" It was like fighting a machine. He countered everything I threw at him. But even though it was like fighting a machine he was unpredictable. He still had personality in his attacks. Every attack he threw though, it was like the world was sucked in so only I could be hit by it. Sure if I had mana I could probably beat him. However if it's just pure hand to hand combat. I think even you would lose Kuro." Askan says to us.
" Woah maybe I should test him then." I say.
" Calm down Kuro. I don't need my defense fighting my offense. You guys need to be in sync. " The king says.
" Yes sir. Askan you may leave now." I say.

I wonder if my brother is okay. He's strong, stronger than me. So he should do just fine on his own. Mentally I don't know though. He doesn't have as much control over his emotions. He lost Stitch. Then his father rejected him and then he lost me. His mind might break from that. I need to get out of Purgatory soon. How soon though? Kuro told me that Purgatory is like the forging of the reaper body. So where is the forgery?
Even though the weather is crazy here. The lava is just part of the environment. I'm sure the forgery is the hellfire. Stitch said hellfire is something that is more dangerous than any other. It burns you at your soul at the sins you've committed. So if the hellfire is the forgery they must want me to step into it. Allow my past self to be burned away. I won't die if i'm already dead. So the only thing I have to worry about is my soul.
I've been getting attacked for a few days. The beasts kept attacking me without break. Whether it was flying or land. The only interest they had in me was to kill me. There were no more humanoid demons though. So i'm guessing the demon from before was just a test.
" NoTe you can find us a body here." The 4 horseman say.
" I haven't heard from you guys in a while. Where could I find you guys a body though?" I ask.
" We apologize for not saying anything beforehand. We were being wary of that devil. We are pretty sure we know which one he is." They say to me.
" Yeah so do I. Don't worry though. I'm sure he's trustful. " I say to them.
" kill any humanoid demon or just bring him into your shadow. We will be able to take over their body as long as we're strong enough." They say.
" What happens if you aren't strong enough?" I ask.
" Then they'll take us over and absorb us. I don't know about the other shadows. But us 4 horseman won't lose to anyone." They say to me.
" Okay good. I'll find some bodies for you guys. So I'll expect a proper introduction when I do." I say to them.
I notice a bright white light coming from a cave. I walk towards it hoping it's the forgery. However it's way more than the forgery. It's not even a cave it looks like a whole separated half. So this whole time I thought I conquered purgatory. However in reality it was just the first half.
Now that's amazing. I hope the beasts there are stronger than the beasts here. The other half is a lot more vibrant and bright. My half is dark and gloomy and the beasts are in hiding. The other half is bright red and the beasts are all out. It's like they are waiting for me. An army is waiting for me this will be so much fun.
