Just as my fist was about to connect with the Arachnid's face, the red lines around her face opened up like eyelids and her extra pair of eyes shone with a bright red light. As soon as I saw this light, my mind went blank for a minute and went I became lucid once again I felt an ache in my shoulder and when I looked over, I saw the arachnid with her fangs deep in my neck. I punched her in the stomach with all my might and she skidded across the ground for a few meters along with a chunk of my shoulder. I could see her face contort in pain but she didn't scream and instead looked at me and started chewing the chunk if flesh in her mouth.
"Delicious." She said and grinned, showing her bloody fangs and I was enraged. The flames and aura around my fists became even more intense and I could feel the ache in my chest become stronger. I roared and charged at her and she once again created a wall of web but this time, I only needed two good punches to break through. This seem to catch Amara off guard as genuine panic appeared on her face for the first time and she hastily blocked with her arms as my fist neared her face. At the last moment, I redirected my fist from her face and towards her stomach.
"Aaaahhhhhhhh." She screamed while clutching her stomach. The skin on her stomach was severely burned and steam could be seen rising from her stomach. I bet her insides were faring even worse as the force from the punch alone sent skidding across the ground for a few meters and that thought seemed to fill me with a dark glee.
"What...the..*cough* *cough*." She started saying but started coughing violently right after. She gritted her teeth and then her body started glowing an intense red light and then all that energy condensed into her hand and soon a ball made of pure demonic energy formed in her hand. This was one of the forms of attacks that I learned of when I evolved into a Demon Noble. These attacks were weaker than attacks using your affinity but they had their uses and based on the amount of energy I was sensing from that ball it wasn't any weaker than my aura fueled fireballs. She threw the energy ball at me and I quickly jumped into the air to avoid it but surprisingly the energy ball followed me into the sky and due to it's speed, I didn't even have time to fly out of the way.
I caught the ball in my hand and I immediately roared in pain. Unlike holy energy, the nature of demonic energy is chaotic and destructive and from what I can tell it's only purpose is to destroy everything in it's path and that's exactly what this ball of concentrated demonic energy was doing. Even though my hands were covered in my aura, I could feel the demonic energy shredding away at my skin rapidly. I covered my hand in hellfire and I could feel the ball of energy in my slowly being weakened and I couldn't help but sigh in relief. Slowly, the ball of demonic energy was weakened to the point that I could throw it off into the distance and with a loud boom, ball crashed into a building completely destroying it and sending debris flying in the air.
'Where the hell did that spider go?' I thought as a looked around, but no matter how much I looked she was gone. I activated my [Aura Vision] but she was still nowhere to be seen then I used [Demon Eyes] to track her aura trail but entering the forest it completely disappeared which means she has some kind of stealth trait that hides her aura. As soon as I realized that she was gone, all the energy in my body disappeared and I felt a dull ache from my shoulder where she bit me. I looked over and I saw black blood dripping from the wound and a foul scent that i hadn't noticed before eminated from it.
"I need somewhere to recover fast." I said to myself and unsteadily, I flew into one of the partially destroyed buildings. I got into a meditative pose and focused all my demonic energy into the shoulder wound and slowly more black blood dripped from the wound as it slowly healed.

Amara POV
'What the hell is wrong with that Demon, I know he's a true Demon but still, what the fuck?' I thought to myself as I ran through the forest towards my hideout holding my stomach. It was a known fact among demons that true demons, the descendants of the fallen one, were stronger than Demon subspecies like Arachnids and they even possessed certain skills that were coveted by the subspecies such as the [Demon Ritual: Demon Creation] skill. Amara soon arrived at her hideout and after quickly blocking the entrance with a strong web net she closed her eyes.
'I should rest and regenerate for now.' She thought as she fell asleep.
