Chapter 2 - Chapter 2: Demon Hunting Corps

17 Years Later After the Baylor Slaughter Incident

The Wind blew Heavily, Scattering Dusts across the air as the Neighing sounds of Fast approaching Horses drew closer, The Scorching sun shines heavily upon The Norwegian Valley of Zentryx.

Dozens of Fast Approaching Horses were spotted across the valley as they were all dressed up in Battle suits, Few of them were Spearbearers while they were on guard and ready to engage in any type of battles.

" Huntsmen, We are few miles away from the Demon, I hope you guys are prepared "

One of the Horsemen spoke out as he caused his Horse to run faster, Dressed in white battle suit, He is seen putting on a battle helmet while moving faster than the others behind him, Based on his looks.

One could tell that he is the Captain of this troops, They were moving faster every second while preparing themselves from what's to come, In this Troop....There is only a single lady present while the rest are men.

" Princess, You are here on orders by your father to watch us, You have no reason to join in the Demon Hunting and mostly especially, You are not allowed to die " One of the Horsemen voiced out as he Unsheathed his sword.

His Blade is filled with ancient runes as it's glowed brightly green!!

Blonde haired with bright blue eyes, Golden Necklace wrapped around her neck, One could tell that this young lady is a Royal-born, She frowned at the words of her fellow Horsemen while she continued riding her horse.

" I'm an Horsemen like you, Although I am here to watch Doesn't mean I am incapable of defeating demons on my own, Don't underestimate me because I'm a woman " The Princess said firmly.

They kept on running across the valley on their horses when they felt it, The Auras of Demon Nearby spreading across the air, It's easy to recognize a demon considering their dark Auras of Terror.

" We have our Demon locked in now, There will be no spreading out.....We are hunting this Demon together " The Captain spoke out when they rode their horses into the nearby woods were the auras came from.

The Neighing Sounds of the Horses became even more louder as the Demonic Stench became even more thicker, They were riding into the deep parts of the woods when the Captain gazed at the darkness even in broad daylight.

" Such Stench, Could it be a Horned Demon? " One of the Horsemen asked as he held his Spear ready to attack, The Captain suddenly stopped his horse when the others stopped their horses as well.

" No, This is no horned Demon.....An Horned Demon is far too Destructive and couldn't be seen in a place like this, We may be facing against A Shadow Type Demon " The Captain spoke out when he sighed, He slowly looked around with his attention also fixed on the Princess, Although she was granted two Huntsmen as Bodyguards.

The Whirlwind blew across the Stench full woods when movements could be heard, The Captain looked around while trying to figure out the source of the movements, He slowly Unsheathed his sword.

" Something is coming, Protect the Princess " The Captain ordered.

He widened his eyes in shock when he instantly jumped right out of his horse and in that Second, His Horse was blasted away as it's bloods splashes heavily across the field, The Captain landed on his feets.

Instantly evading the Sharp Claws unleashed against him as he did a back flip, He landed on the ground causing his eyes to glow Brightly, Screeching sounds filled the air when he gazed at the monster standing before him.

" I was right.....This is a Shadow Type Demon, An Averis " The Captain said when he swung his sword skillfully, He gazed at the Creature standing before him....A Demon without eyes and it's skin were scales.

" An Averis? Captain.....Let's destroy it with it " One of the Horsemen spoke out as he suddenly jumped down from his horse while holding his sword firmly, Spearbearers also got down from their horses.

" Averis are powerful Demons but they are not strong enough to be a problem for me, I will cut them down while you guys should watch " The Captain said when he took a deep breath and in that instant.

The Demon roared out loud as it charged Against the Huntsmen!!

Humans who were granted the armors to fight against demons, Armors made out of the flesh of dead demons to grant Humanity powers to kill demons, The Demon supersped when it released it's claws.

The Captain blocked the claws with his blade when the Demon vanished into the shadows.

Emerging directly from the shadows of the Captain, It aimed to slash the Captain from behind when the Captain quickly evaded the attacks, His suits granted him both super senses and super speed.

Causing his blade to glow Brightly, Releasing the output of the Demon he wears, He directed a severing slash against the Demon, Slashing through the hands of the Demon causing it to release shrieking sounds into the air.

The Demon vanished into the shadows once again, Even though it's a Rank B type of Demon, A Demon is still a Demon and the Captain is ready to attack the next time it attacks him, To kill it with a single slash.

The Captain held his sword firmly while the heavy fogs became even more thicker, The Princess widened her eyes in shock as the Demon targeted her instead of The Captain, Tearing her horse into pieces.

The Princess widened her eyes in shock as she stared with fears in her eyes.

The Demon aimed to slash her into pieces with its claws when It's head fell off without hesitation, Causing the demon's bloods to splash heavily across the scene, The Captain took a deep breath.

" Princess, I thought you said you could stand your own ground against the Demon, Why couldn't you move your blade when the Demon was about to kill you? " The Captain asked with smiles on his face, He is fast enough to behead the Demon before it could decapitate the Princess!!

" That's That's Ridiculous Captain Rudeus, If you hadn't intervened....I would have killed that demon myself, After all I am the Strongest Huntsman ever " The Princess boasted as they laughed.

" Princess, You are not an Huntsman yet, You were just sent here by your father as you requested to see how hunting demons is like, This is a Rank B Shadow Type Demon, An Averis kind "

" I could easily handle a Rank B type Demon because I am An A Class Huntsman, There is a reason why I am the Captain of a Squadron in the Kingdom, You don't underestimate demons princess "

The Captain whose name is Rudeus said with smiles on his face.

" Captain Rudeus, We are to take this Demon with us right? Since this demons could serve as Battle suits to us, I would like to have it's powers " One of the Huntsmen asked with smiles on his face.

" Yh we are taking its body with us but I would be the one who gets to decide if you will be putting on this Creature or not, After all you may or may not be compatible with it " The Captain said.

" Now let's take our leave and return back to the Capital, We have completed our mission already, The Demon has been decapitated....There is no reason to...." The Captain couldn't complete his statement when an Explosion occured.

Releasing Heavy shockwaves into the air as the Woods became slowly Overwhelmed by the flames that has been unleashed, In a matter of seconds....Demons were emerging from the darkness.

" Hordes of Demons? What's the meaning of this? " An Huntsman asked in shock.

There were all different kinds of demons but Specially lower ranks but their numbers were far too terrifying, They were charging against the Demon Hunting Soldiers when The Captain supersped.

Unsheathing his sword when he chopped off the heads of several demons in just a single move, The Other Huntsmen welcomed the Demons as the Spear bearers engaged in a brutal showdown against demons.

" I don't understand what is going on but protect the princess at all cost " The Captain roared out.

Swinging his sword heavily while killing demons like they were nothing, Captain Rudeus did a stunning front flip, Evading a demon's attacks when he stabbed the Demon right from the back like it's nothing.

" Fresh foods.....Fresh humans!! " A Demonic voice was heard from the Darkness!!

Captain Rudeus slowly widened his eyes in shock when he slowly turned to see a Monster standing right before him, A One Eyed Volcano Head Demon with red scaled Skin as it grinned evily while liking it's lips.

" The Flame Type Demon, The Infamous Askarita... Humanoid Class, This is bad, We have to leave at once " Captain Rudeus screamed out when the Demon suddenly snapped his fingers without hesitation.

Causing great Explosion in four places without hesitation, Drawing demons from every angle while burning their every chance of escape, Demons were flooding from every area like it's nothing!!

" Fresh human, Fresh foods...This girl looks yummy "

The Humanoid Class Demon spoke out when in that instant, It vanished without hesitation, Causing the air to burn heavily as it appeared right above the princess with the Intentions of devouring her.

" No.....Not the Princess " Captain Rudeus screamed out as he charged Against the Demon but not even he is faster than this Demon, The Princess widened her eyes in shock while sweating heavily.

This even an ordinary demon but an Humanoid class, They are Chaos Savages!!

The Humanoid Demon was about to place his hand on the princess when his hand was chopped without hesitation, Causing a greater Explosion, Overwhelming the princess without hesitation as the Humanoid Demon landed on its feets.

" You touched me with your blade? How dare you? " The Demon asked as he slowly turned towards a Direction when he gazed at a man who's seen smiling evily, Silver haired with bright green eyes.

He held the Princess in a Princess Carry style when he chuckled softly.

" An Intelligent Demon huh? I was wondering where I could find one, I guess I came lucky " The Mysterious Figure spoke out, He is seen putting on an Eye-patch when he slowly glared at the princess.

The Demon gnashed it's teeths furiously when it caused it's entire area to explode, Burning with hot intensive flames as it's attention is fixed on this mysterious intruder, With the Intentions of burning everything to the ground.
