Chapter 63 - Chapter 63 Colin to the rescue

"You can't run forever." Anaka shouted as she fired more fireballs at me and I swiftly dodged. Some of the fireballs exploded in the sky burning my skin but they didn't hurt as much as Colin's [Hell Flames].

'Where did that wolf go?' The wolf, Chomps, had disappeared for a while now and I decided to activate [Aura Vision] to make sure he wasn't sneaking around somewhere.

'Fuck.' Chomps was jumping through the trees but that wasn't what alarmed me it was the greater imps they were getting close, really close. I had tried my best to avoid the Greater imps but they weren't any amateurs when it came to hunting. Seeing how close they were getting I activated [Shadow Cloak] hoping to throw them off but as I said before they weren't ameteurs.

"Chomps!!" Anaka shouted and the wolf jumped into the air and roared loudly causing waves of red energy to spread through the sky. I felt my [Shadow Cloak] shimmer and break apart no matter how hard I tried to keep it together.

'I have to kill that fucking wolf.' I thought to myself and flew closer to the trees. I manipulated the shadows of the trees and turned them into tentacles and tried to grab the wolf. The wolf seeing the tentacles swung it's claws at it but that didn't do anything and the tentacles and as I was going to throw my sword to kill it a fireball came flying at me halting my actions. I glared at Anaka and then I felt my hold on the Shadow tentacle disappear and I looked down to see the world with a tentacle in it's mouth, it's claws and fangs glowing a deep red.

'Seriously.' I thought when I saw this. As I continued to dodge fireballs my worst nightmare happened. Standing on a tree was another greater imp, this one had bulging muscles and carried an axe. The male greater imp swung his axe and a slash of fire came flying towards me.

'Demons Pride, Demon Enchant.' I activated two of my traits activated and my body and sword was covered in a red aura as I flew towards the male Greater imp at full speed. I swung my sword and it clashed against his axe but the impact caused him to fly into the sky a bit. I flew at him fast and as I got closer he swung his axe down on me and I turned into pure white mist and reappeared behind him. Taken by surprise he didn't even have time to react as I shoved my claws into his neck killing him. My sword fell to ground but I have no time to retrieve it. This was something that I wasn't able to learn in my week of training, although I could turn my clothes into mist as well I couldn't do the same with cursed weapons but I instinctively knew that I could so maybe with some more training I might learn....eventually.

As the greater Greater imp's body fell from the sky, I deactivated my traits quickly trying to conserve as much DP as I could. I continued flying through the sky and i noticed that the female Greater imp has increased her efforts to bring me down as a large fireball came flying my way. I dodged the fireball but as it passed me it began to swell and then a large explosion rocked the sky sending me flying into the forest.

I got up with a groan as the burn marks on my skin healed slowly.

*Crunch*

As I got up the wolf pounced on me and bit deep into my leg and I could feel it's teeth scraping my bone as I screamed in pain. My nails extended as I slashed at it but the wolf jumped back.

"Not this time you mutt." I screamed as I turned into mist and appeared above the wolf and slashed down wounding it's neck. The wolf jumped back, it's neck bleeding heavily but it had probably started healing already just like my leg. As I was going to pounce on the wolf once again a fireball came flying through the forest towards me and I had no choice but to jump out of the way.

"Now you have nowhere to go little vampire." Anaka said as she walked towards me with flaming claws, the wolf walked towards her side snarling at me all the way. I wasn't gonna go out without a fight so I got on my feet and bared my fangs at them.

As I was about to activate my traits something unexpected happened, a hole appeared in Anaka's chest as blood sprayed out of the hole dying the ground red. And as if for extra insurance, whatever attacked her decapitated her making even more blood spray on the ground. The wolf snarled while swinging it's head all over the place trying to find whatever attacked it's master. But it never got the chance as a orange red flame ignited on it's body and soon consumed it. As the wolf was incinerated to ashes I finally saw my demonic savior.

"Colin." I screamed and ran towards him with tears in my eyes.
