The force generated by our collective might sent us flying in opposite directions. Alice pounced on Hans as he crashed into another building activating both [Demon Enchant] and [Demons Pride]. She swung down her sword on Hans who was lying down in the rubble but unlike Alice thought he was far from defenseless. Opening his mouth a stream of fire was released forcing Alice to use her shadow to block and as soon as her shadow wall crumbled back into the ground she saw an axe heading straight towards her face. She activated her [Misting] skill on instinct and quickly reformed her body a distance away much to Hans frustration. I flew towards the two of them arriving beside Alice within seconds.
"Why can't I put a dent in this guy?" Alice asked frustratedly
"Try channeling your aura into your attacks." I said and she looked at me confused.
"Channel my aura?" She asked
"You've seen me do it a few times, right. Just try and copy what I did." I said
"Bu.."
*Graaah*
Hans shouted as he appeared beside us with a fierce horizontal swing of his axe. Alice immediately turned to mist while I was forced to block which sent me crashing into a nearby building.
'Why do vampires have such useful skills and demons don't?' I thought envious of a vampires ability to escape danger. As I got up off the ground, I sensed a fireball heading my way and cursed under my breath as it exploded destroying the building I was in. The fireball did barely any damage to my body and I wish could say the same about my clothes but..
Hans charged at me with his axe and I could only meet him in the middle as we once again clashed fiercely.
'[Demon Pride], [Demon Enchant].' I activated my two most powerful traits but instead of focusing their power on my weapon or boosting my strength, I channelled my aura into the top of my tail and stabbed it towards Hans' head. Hans tried to catch my tail with his hand but my tail pierced right through his wrist and I channelled hell fire into my tail causing him to scream in pain and jump backwards dislodging my tail.
Even though my tail was removed hellfire still remained slowly burning hand causing me to smirk at his silent suffering but then he did something surprising. Holding his hand out, he lifted his axe and swung it down cutting his hand off causing it to fall to the ground....along with hell fire that was plaguing him.
"You quite the cunning little bastard, aren't you?" Hans said gratefully as the muscles around the severed part of his hand contracted stopping his blood from leaking and soon his hand turned into a stump. Watching all of this happen in a matter of seconds was grotesquely fascinating. I was a bit dazed watching that and Hans took advantage of that by throwing his axe at me with all his might. I was caught off guard but managed to deflect the axe out of the way only to receive a flaming foot to my face. After crashing into a building for the umpteenth time I have had enough, I threw my axe to the side and shot towards him. I punched at his face but he blocked it in his still intact hand so I kicked him in the face with my leg lifting him off his feet. He spun in the air and landed on his feet but he didn't remain on it for too long. A black tentacle appeared out of nowhere and grabbed onto his leg and smashed him into the ground causing a small crater to form. Looking closely at the tentacles I could see a red glow around them.
'She already learned how to control her aura that quickly. It's only been around two minutes.' It took me hours of pain and torment go be able to control my aura so seeing how it took her only two minutes to learn this pissed me off greatly.
'Could it be that she was practicing while I was gone or is it a perk of being a vampire?' I wondered as Alice continued to smash Hans into the ground over and over.
*Graaaahhh*
